Jeremiah 28:12-17 - The Lord's Word Against Hananiah

¹² Some time after this Jehovah told me: ¹³ Go and tell Hananiah: 'Jehovah has said, You may be able to break a wooden yoke, but he will replace it with an iron yoke. ¹⁴ The Lord Jehovah, the God of Israel, said: 'He will put an iron yoke on all these nations and that they will serve King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon. Jehovah said that he would make even the wild animals serve Nebuchadnezzar.'

¹⁵ Then Jeremiah the prophet told the prophet Hananiah: Listen, Hananiah! Jehovah did not send you. You are making these people believe a lie. ¹⁶ Because of this, Jehovah says: 'I am going to get rid of you. Before this year is over you will die because you have told the people to rebel against Jehovah.' ¹⁷ Hananiah died in the seventh month of that same year.
