Jeremiah 27:14

Jeremiah Uses Fetters And Yokes To Illustrate His Message Of Submission

¹³ Why are you desiring death, you and your people, by the sword, and because food is gone, and by disease, as the Lord has said of the nation which does not become the servant of the king of Babylon? ¹⁴ And you are not to give ear to the prophets who say to you, You will not become servants of the king of Babylon: for what they say is not true. ¹⁵ For I have not sent them, says the Lord, but they are saying what is false in my name, so that I might send you out by force, causing destruction to come on you and on your prophets.
