33¶ And when this people, or the prophet, or a priest, shall ask thee, saying, What is the burden of the Lord? thou shalt then say unto them, What burden? I will even forsake you, saith the Lord.
34And as for the prophet, and the priest, and the people, that shall say, The burden of the Lord, I will even punish that man and his house.
35Thus shall ye say every one to his neighbour, and every one to his brother, What hath the Lord answered? and, What hath the Lord spoken?
36And the burden of the Lord shall ye mention no more: for every man’s word shall be his burden; for ye have perverted the words of the living God, of the Lord of hosts our God.
37Thus shalt thou say to the prophet, What hath the Lord answered thee? and, What hath the Lord spoken?
38But since ye say, The burden of the Lord; therefore thus saith the Lord; Because ye say this word, The burden of the Lord, and I have sent unto you, saying, Ye shall not say, The burden of the Lord;
39Therefore, behold, I, even I, will utterly forget you, and I will forsake you, and the city that I gave you and your fathers, and cast you out of my presence:
40And I will bring an everlasting reproach upon you, and a perpetual shame, which shall not be forgotten.
33¶ And when this people, or the prophet, or a priest shall aske thee, saying; What is the burden of the LORD? thou shalt then say vnto them; What burden? I will euen forsake you, saith the LORD.
34†And as for the prophet, and the priest, and the people that shal say, The burden of the LORD, I will euen punish that man and his house.
35Thus shall yee say euery one to his neighbour, and euery one to his brother, What hath the LORD answered? and what hath the LORD spoken?
36And the burden of the LORD shall yee mention no more: for euery mans word shall be his burden: for yee haue peruerted the words of the liuing God, of the LORD of hostes our God.
37Thus shalt thou say to the prophet, What hath the LORD answered thee? and what hath the LORD spoken?
38But sith ye say, The burden of the LORD; therefore thus sayeth the LORD, Because you say this word, The burden of the LORD, and I haue sent vnto you, saying; Ye shall not say, The burden of the LORD:
39Therefore beholde, I, euen I will vtterly forget you, and I will forsake you, and the citie that I gaue you and your fathers, and cast you out of my presence.
40*And I will bring an euerlasting reproch vpon you, and a perpetuall shame, which shall not be forgotten.
