Verse 1
The word of the Lord which came to Jeremiah concerning the drought.[6]
"Drought": is rendered as Droughts (plural) in the New King James Version[7] or the "Great Drought" in the New American Bible Revised Edition.[8]
Verse 14
And the Lord said to me, “The prophets prophesy lies in My name. I have not sent them, commanded them, nor spoken to them; they prophesy to you a false vision, divination, a worthless thing, and the deceit of their heart.[9]
The false prophets rely on their own reason and the practice of divination instead of "divine commission".[10]
- "A worthless thing" (from Hebrew: אליל or אלול {{Strong-number|’ĕ-lîl or ’ĕ-lūl|H|0457}}; KJV: “a thing of nought”): collectively "kingdoms of idolatrous worthlessness" worshipped in the time of Isaiah ({{bibleref2|Isaiah|2:8|NKJV}}; {{bibleref2|Isaiah|10:11|NKJV}}; {{bibleref2|Isaiah|19:1,3|NKJV}} (of Egypt); {{bibleref2|Isaiah|31:7|NKJV}}).{{sfn|Brown|1994|"אֱלִיל"}}
Verse 15
Therefore thus says the Lord concerning the prophets who prophesy in My name, whom I did not send, and who say, ‘Sword and famine shall not be in this land’—‘By sword and famine those prophets shall be consumed![11]
Verse 16
And the people to whom they prophesy shall be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and the sword; they will have no one to bury them—them nor their wives, their sons nor their daughters—for I will pour their wickedness on them.’[12]
