28:5 Then the prophet Jeremiah spoke to the prophet Hananiah in the presence of the
priests and all the people who were standing in the house of the LORD;
28:6 and the prophet Jeremiah said, "Amen! May the LORD do so; may the LORD
fulfill the words that you have prophesied, and bring back to this place from Babylon the
vessels of the house of the LORD, and all the exiles.
28:7 But listen now to this word that I speak in your hearing and in the hearing of all
the people.
28:8 The prophets who preceded you and me from ancient times prophesied war, famine,
and pestilence against many countries and great kingdoms.
28:9 As for the prophet who prophesies peace, when the word of that prophet comes true,
then it will be known that the LORD has truly sent the prophet."
