Jeremiah 23:19 Context
17They say still vnto them that despise me; The Lord hath sayde, Yee shall haue peace; and they say vnto euery one that walketh after the imagination of his owne heart, No euill shall come vpon you. 18For who hath stood in the counsell of the Lord, and hath perceiued, and heard his word? who hath marked his word, and heard it? 19Behold, a whirlewinde of the Lord is gone foorth in furie, euen a grieuous whirlewinde, it shall fall grieuously vpon the head of the wicked. 20The anger of the Lord shall not returne, vntill hee haue executed, and til he haue performed the thoughts of his heart: in the latter dayes ye shall consider it perfectly. 21I haue not sent these prophets, yet they ranne: I haue not spoken to them, yet they prophecied.
