Bible: Jeremiah 23:2,14

23:2 So the Lord God of Israel has this to say about the leaders who are ruling over his people: “You have caused my people 1  to be dispersed and driven into exile. You have not taken care of them. So I will punish you for the evil that you have done. 2  I, the Lord, affirm it! 3 

23:14 But I see the prophets of Jerusalem 4 

doing something just as shocking.

They are unfaithful to me

and continually prophesy lies. 5 

So they give encouragement to people who are doing evil,

with the result that they do not stop their evildoing. 6 

I consider all of them as bad as the people of Sodom,

and the citizens of Jerusalem as bad as the people of Gomorrah. 7
