Jeremiah 28

28:1And it came to pass in the fourth year of the reigning of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fifth month, Hananiah said to me (son of Azur the false prophet, the one from Gibeon) in the house of the lord in front of the eyes of the priests and all the people, saying,

28:2Thus said the lord of the forces, the God of Israel, I broke the yoke of the king of Babylon.

28:3Yet in two years of days I will return unto this place all the items of the house of the lord,

28:4and Jeconiah, and the resettlement of Judah; for I shall break the yoke of the king of Babylon.

28:5And Jeremiah the prophet said to Hananiah before the eyes of the priests, and before the eyes of all of the people standing in the house of the lord;

28:6and Jeremiah said, Truly, thus may the lord do, the lord establish your word which you prophesy to return the items of the house of the lord, and all the resettlement from out of Babylon to this place.

28:7Only hear this word which I say into your ears, and into the ears of all the people.

28:8The prophets, the ones being prior to me, and prior to you from the eon, and prophesied against much land, and over great kingdoms concerning war, and concerning affliction, and concerning pestilence.

28:9The prophet prophesying for peace, in the coming to pass of the word, they shall know the prophet whom the lord sent to them in trust.

28:10And Hananiah took the collars from the neck of Jeremiah, and he broke them.

28:11And Hananiah said before the eyes of all the people, saying, Thus said the lord, Thus I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon in two years of days from the necks of all the nations. And Jeremiah set out unto his way.

28:12And came to pass the word of the lord to Jeremiah after Hananiah broke the collars from his neck, saying,

28:13Proceed and say to Hananiah! saying, Thus said the lord, you broke wooden collars, but I will make instead of these collars of iron.

28:14For thus said the lord of the forces, the God of Israel, A yoke of iron I have put upon the neck of all the nations to work for the king of Babylon, to serve to him. And indeed the cattle of the land I gave to him.

28:15And Jeremiah said to Hananiah, Hear, O Hananiah! The lord has not sent you, and you made this people to rely upon wrongdoing.

28:16On account of this, Thus said the lord, Behold, I send you out from the face of the land. In this year you shall die, for you spoke against the lord.

28:17And he died in the seventh month.
