Jeremiah 23:33-40 (New Revised Standard)
33
When this people, or a prophet, or a priest asks you, "What is the burden of the Lord?" you shall say to them, "You are the burden, a and I will cast you off, says the Lord."
34
And as for the prophet, priest, or the people who say, "The burden of the Lord," I will punish them and their households.
35
Thus shall you say to one another, among yourselves, "What has the Lord answered?" or "What has the Lord spoken?"
36
But "the burden of the Lord" you shall mention no more, for the burden is everyone's own word, and so you pervert the words of the living God, the Lord of hosts, our God.
37
Thus you shall ask the prophet, "What has the Lord answered you?" or "What has the Lord spoken?"
38
But if you say, "the burden of the Lord," thus says the Lord: Because you have said these words, "the burden of the Lord," when I sent to you, saying, You shall not say, "the burden of the Lord,"
39
therefore, I will surely lift you up b and cast you away from my presence, you and the city that I gave to you and your ancestors.
40
And I will bring upon you everlasting disgrace and perpetual shame, which shall not be forgotten.
