Jeremiah 23:21 Context
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. 22But if they had stood in my counsell, and had caused my people to heare my wordes, then they should haue turned them from their euil way, and from the euill of their doings. 23Am I a God at hand, sayth the Lord, and not a God afarre off?
