← Jeremiah 29:25	Jeremiah 29:26 (KJV)	Jeremiah 29:27 →
Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, Because thou hast sent letters in thy name unto all the people that [are] at Jerusalem, and to Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah the priest, and to all the priests, saying,	The LORD hath made thee priest in the stead of Jehoiada the priest, that ye should be officers in the house of the LORD, for every man [that is] mad, and maketh himself a prophet, that thou shouldest put him in prison, and in the stocks.	Now therefore why hast thou not reproved Jeremiah of Anathoth, which maketh himself a prophet to you?
