Jeremiah 23:11 Context
9¶ Mine heart within me is broken because of the prophets, all my bones shake: I am like a drunken man (and like a man whom wine hath ouercome) because of the Lord, and because of the words of his Holinesse. 10For the land is full of adulterers, for because of swearing the land mourneth: the pleasant places of the wildernes are dried vp, and their course is euil, and their force is not right. 11For both prophet and priest are prophane, yea in my house haue I found their wickednesse, saith the Lord. 12Wherefore their way shalbe vnto them as slippery wayes in the darkenes: they shalbe driuen on and fall therein: for I will bring euill vpon them, euen the yeere of their visitation, saith the Lord. 13And I haue seene folly in the prophets of Samaria; they prophecied in Baal, and caused my people Israel to erre.
