Jeremiah 28:9 Context
7Neuerthelesse, heare thou now this word that I speake in thine eares, and in the eares of all the people. 8The prophets that haue beene before mee, and before thee of old, prophecied both against many countries, and against great kingdoms, of warre, and of euill, and of pestilence. 9The prophet which prophecieth of peace, when the word of the prophet shall come to passe, then shall the prophet be knowen, that the Lord hath truely sent him. 10¶ Then Hananiah the prophet tooke the yoke from off the prophet Ieremiahs necke, and brake it. 11And Hananiah spake in the presence of all the people, saying; Thus saith the Lord, Euen so will I breake the yoke of Nebuchadnezzer king of Babylon from the necke of all nations within the space of two full yeeres: and the Prophet Ieremiah went his way.
