← Jeremiah 27:15	Jeremiah 27:16 (KJV)	Jeremiah 27:17 →
For I have not sent them, saith the LORD, yet they prophesy a lie in my name; that I might drive you out, and that ye might perish, ye, and the prophets that prophesy unto you.	Also I spake to the priests and to all this people, saying, Thus saith the LORD; Hearken not to the words of your prophets that prophesy unto you, saying, Behold, the vessels of the LORD'S house shall now shortly be brought again from Babylon: for they prophesy a lie unto you.	Hearken not unto them; serve the king of Babylon, and live: wherefore should this city be laid waste?
