Jeremiah 28

7 Nevertheless, listen now to this message I am speaking in your hearing and in the hearing of all the people.

8 The prophets of old who preceded you and me prophesied war, disaster, and plague against many lands and great kingdoms.

9 As for the prophet who prophesies peace, only if the word of the prophet comes true will the prophet be recognized as one the LORD has truly sent.”

10 Then the prophet Hananiah took the yoke off the neck of Jeremiah the prophet and broke it.
