Jeremiah 5:12-14
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 5

12They have lied about the Lord And said, 'Not He; Misfortune will not come upon us, Nor will we see sword or famine. 13The prophets are as wind, And the word is not in them. So it will be done to them!' 14Therefore, this is what the Lord, the God of armies says: 'Because you have spoken this word, Behold, I am making My words fire in your mouth, And this people wood, and it will consume them.
King James Version

Chapter 5

12They have belied the Lord, and said, It is not he; neither shall evil come upon us; neither shall we see sword nor famine:
13And the prophets shall become wind, and the word is not in them: thus shall it be done unto them. 14Wherefore thus saith the Lord God of hosts, Because ye speak this word, behold, I will make my words in thy mouth fire, and this people wood, and it shall devour them.
Christian Standard Bible

Chapter 5

12They have contradicted the Lord and insisted, "It won’t happen. Harm won’t come to us; we won’t see sword or famine." 13The prophets become only wind, for the Lord’s word is not in them. This will in fact happen to them.
14Therefore, this is what the Lord God of Armies says: Because you have spoken this word, I am going to make my words become fire in your mouth. These people are the wood, and the fire will consume them.
New Living Translation

Chapter 5

12'They have lied about the Lord and said, ‘He won’t bother us! No disasters will come upon us. There will be no war or famine. 13God’s prophets are all windbags who don’t really speak for him. Let their predictions of disaster fall on themselves!’'
14Therefore, this is what the Lord God of Heaven’s Armies says: 'Because the people are talking like this, my messages will flame out of your mouth and burn the people like kindling wood.
English Standard Version

Chapter 5

12They have spoken falsely of the Lord and have said, ‘He will do nothing; no disaster will come upon us, nor shall we see sword or famine. 13The prophets will become wind; the word is not in them. Thus shall it be done to them!’" 14Therefore thus says the Lord, the God of hosts: "Because you have spoken this word, behold, I am making my words in your mouth a fire, and this people wood, and the fire shall consume them.
New International Version

Chapter 5

12They have lied about the Lord; they said, "He will do nothing! No harm will come to us; we will never see sword or famine. 13The prophets are but wind and the word is not in them; so let what they say be done to them."
14Therefore this is what the Lord God Almighty says: "Because the people have spoken these words, I will make my words in your mouth a fire and these people the wood it consumes.
New King James Version

Chapter 5

12 They have lied about the Lord, And said, “ It is not He. Neither will evil come upon us, Nor shall we see sword or famine. 13And the prophets become wind, For the word is not in them. Thus shall it be done to them.”
14Therefore thus says the Lord God of hosts: “Because you speak this word, Behold, I will make My words in your mouth fire, And this people wood, And it shall devour them.
