9 The prophet who has predicted peace, if his word will occur, then the prophet will be known as one whom the Lord has sent in truth.'
10 And Hananiah the prophet took the chain from the neck of Jeremiah the prophet, and he broke it.
11 And Hananiah spoke in the sight of all the people, saying: 'Thus says the Lord: So shall I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, after two years of days, from the neck of all the people.'
12 And Jeremiah the prophet went his own way. And after Hananiah the prophet had broken the chain from the neck of Jeremiah the prophet, the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying:
13 'Go, and you shall say to Hananiah: Thus says the Lord: You have broken chains of wood, and so you will make for them chains of iron.
