Jeremiah 28:11

Holy Bible: Easy-to-Read Version

Then Hananiah spoke loudly so that all the people could hear him. He said, “This is what the Lord says: ‘In the same way, I will break the yoke of King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon. He put that yoke on all the nations of the world, but I will break it before two years are over.’” After Hananiah said that, Jeremiah left the Temple.
