Lamentations 2:14

Read Full Chapter
The visions of your prophets were empty and deceptive; they did not expose your guilt to ward off your captivity. The burdens they envisioned for you were empty and misleading.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Your prophets have seen for you false and foolish visions; They have not uncovered your iniquity, to bring back your captivity, but have seen for you false oracles and causes of banishment.
World English Bible (WEB)
Thy prophets{H5030} have seen{H2372}{(H8804)} vain{H7723} and foolish things{H8602} for thee: and they have not discovered{H1540}{(H8765)} thine iniquity{H5771}, to turn away{H7725}{(H8687)} thy captivity{H7622}{(H8675)}{H7622}; but have seen{H2372}{(H8799)} for thee false{H7723} burdens{H4864} and causes of banishment{H4065}.
Strong's King James
Your prophets have seen futile foolishness for you, They haven't uncovered your burdensome guilt, To return you from captivity, But they have seen words of futile seductions.

Thy prophets have seen for thee a false and insipid thing, And have not revealed concerning thine iniquity, To turn back thy captivity, And they see for thee false burdens and causes of expulsion.
