          DASV: Jeremiah 28    

1 The same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king
of Judah, in the fifth month of the fourth year of his reign,
Hananiah the son of Azzur, the prophet, who was from Gibeon,
spoke to me in the house of the LORD, in the presence of the
priests and all the people, saying,
2 "This is what the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, says,
'I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.
3 Within two full years I will bring back to this place all
the sacred vessels of LORD's house, that Nebuchadnezzar king
of Babylon took from this place and carried off to Babylon.
4 I will bring back to this place Jehoiachin the son of
Jehoiakim, king of Judah, with all the captives of Judah,
who were exiled to Babylon,' says the LORD; 'for I will
break the yoke of the king of Babylon.'"

5 Then the prophet Jeremiah said to the prophet Hananiah in
the presence of the priests, and all the people who stood
in the house of LORD.
6 The prophet Jeremiah said, "Amen: may the LORD do so; may
the LORD fulfill your words which you have prophesied, to
bring back to this place the sacred vessels of LORD's house
and all those carried off into exile to Babylon.
7 Nevertheless, listen now to this word that I speak in
your ears and in the ears of all the people:
8 The prophets who have been long before you and me prophesied
against many countries and great kingdoms, about war,
disaster, and plague.
9 The prophet who prophesied about peace, when the word of
the prophet comes true, then it can be determined that the
LORD has truly sent that prophet."

10 Then Hananiah the prophet took the yoke off the prophet
Jeremiah's neck and broke it.
11 Hananiah spoke in the presence of all the people, saying,
"This is what the LORD says: Just like this I will break
the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon within two
years from off the neck of all the nations.'" Then the
prophet Jeremiah went his way.
12 Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, after Hananiah
the prophet had broken the yoke taking it off the neck
of the prophet Jeremiah, saying,
13 "Go, tell Hananiah, "This is what the LORD says: You
have broken a yoke of wood; but you get an iron yoke in
its place.
14 For this is what the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel,
says: I have put a yoke of iron on the neck of all these
nations, so that they will serve Nebuchadnezzar king of
Babylon; and they will serve him and I have even given
him the animals of the field."
15 Then the prophet Jeremiah said to Hananiah the prophet,
"Listen, Hananiah, the LORD has not sent you; but you
are making this people to trust in a lie.
16 Therefore this is what the LORD says, I will send you
off the face of the earth. This year you will die,
because you have spoken rebellion against the LORD."
17 So Hananiah the prophet died that same year in
the seventh month.
