The ULB does this with the poetry in 23:5-6, 9-24. - -### Special concepts in this chapter - -#### Prophesying lies - -The false prophets had encouraged people to continue sinning by saying everything will be alright. (See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/prophet]] and [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/sin]]) - -### Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter - -#### Wordplay - -In Hebrew, the word for "message" can also mean "burden." In translations that are using footnotes, you may want to explain the wordplay in a footnote. In translations that are not using footnotes or which will primarily be distributed in an oral form, you may need a sentence like "What message has the Lord burdened you with now?" or "You (plural) call God's message a heavy burden on you." - -## Links: - -* __[Jeremiah 23:1 Notes](./01.md)__ - -__[<<](../22/intro.md) | [>>](../24/intro.md)__ -
