Jeremiah 23:23 Context
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? 24Can any hide himselfe in secret places that I shall not see him, saith the Lord ? doe not I fill heauen and earth, sayth the Lord ? 25I haue heard what the prophets said, that prophecie lyes in my Name, saying; I haue dreamed, I haue dreamed.
