Jeremiah 23:36
But refer no more to the burden of the Lord, for each man’s word becomes the burden, so that you pervert the words of the living God, the Lord of Hosts, our God.
And the burden of the Lord shall ye mention no more: for every man’s word shall be his burden; for ye have perverted the words of the living God, of the Lord of hosts our God.
You will mention the message from the Lord no more, for every man’s own word has become his message; for you have perverted the words of the living God, of the Lord of Armies, our God.
And the burden of Jehovah shall ye mention no more: for every man’s own word shall be his burden; for ye have perverted the words of the living God, of Jehovah of hosts our God.
