Jeremiah 29:27

27 "So why haven't you done anything about muzzling Jeremiah of Anathoth, who's going around posing as a prophet?

Jeremiah 29:27 In-Context

25 "God-of-the-Angel-Armies, the God of Israel, says: You took it on yourself to send letters to all the people in Jerusalem and to the priest Zephaniah son of Maaseiah and the company of priests. In your letter you told Zephaniah that
26 God set you up as priest replacing priest Jehoiadah. He's put you in charge of God's Temple and made you responsible for locking up any crazy fellow off the street who takes it into his head to be a prophet.
27 "So why haven't you done anything about muzzling Jeremiah of Anathoth, who's going around posing as a prophet?
28 He's gone so far as to write to us in Babylon, 'It's going to be a long exile, so build houses and make yourselves at home. Plant gardens and prepare Babylonian recipes.'"
29 The priest Zephaniah read that letter to the prophet Jeremiah.
