jeremiah 23:31 Behold, I am against the prophets, saith the LORD, that use their tongues, and say, He saith.

jeremiah 23:31 "Behold, I am against the prophets," declares the LORD, "who use their tongues and declare, '[The Lord] declares.'

31. use--rather, "take" their tongue: a second class (compare Jer 23:30) require, in order to bring forth a revelation, nothing more than their tongues, wherewith they say, He (Jehovah) saith: they bungle in the very formula instead of the usual "Jehovah saith," being only able to say "(He) saith."

jeremiah 23:31 "Behold, I am against the prophets," declares the LORD, "who use their tongues and declare, '[The Lord] declares.'
