24:029:021 Thus saith the lord of hosts, the God of Israel, of Ahab the
           son of Kolaiah, and of Zedekiah the son of Maaseiah, which
           prophesy a lie unto you in my name; Behold, I will deliver
           them into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon; and he
           shall slay them before your eyes;

24:029:022 And of them shall be taken up a curse by all the captivity of
           Judah which are in Babylon, saying, The lord make thee like
           Zedekiah and like Ahab, whom the king of Babylon roasted in
           the fire;

24:029:023 Because they have committed villany in Israel, and have
           committed adultery with their neighbours’ wives, and have
           spoken lying words in my name, which I have not commanded
           them; even I know, and am a witness, saith the lord.

24:029:024 Thus shalt thou also speak to Shemaiah the Nehelamite, saying,

24:029:025 Thus speaketh the lord of hosts, the God of Israel, saying,
           Because thou hast sent letters in thy name unto all the people
           that are at Jerusalem, and to Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah
           the priest, and to all the priests, saying,

24:029:026 The lord hath made thee priest in the stead of Jehoiada the
           priest, that ye should be officers in the house of the lord,
           for every man that is mad, and maketh himself a prophet, that
           thou shouldest put him in prison, and in the stocks.

24:029:027 Now therefore why hast thou not reproved Jeremiah of Anathoth,
           which maketh himself a prophet to you?

24:029:028 For therefore he sent unto us in Babylon, saying, This
           captivity is long:  build ye houses, and dwell in them; and
           plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them.

24:029:029 And Zephaniah the priest read this letter in the ears of
           Jeremiah the prophet.

24:029:030 Then came the word of the lord unto Jeremiah, saying,

24:029:031 Send to all them of the captivity, saying, Thus saith the lord
           concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite; Because that Shemaiah hath
           prophesied unto you, and I sent him not, and he caused you to
           trust in a lie: 

24:029:032 Therefore thus saith the lord; Behold, I will punish Shemaiah
           the Nehelamite, and his seed:  he shall not have a man to dwell
           among this people; neither shall he behold the good that I
           will do for my people, saith the lord; because he hath taught
           rebellion against the lord.

24:030:001 The word that came to Jeremiah from the lord, saying,

24:030:002 Thus speaketh the lord God of Israel, saying, Write thee all
           the words that I have spoken unto thee in a book.
