And as for the prophet, and the priest, and the people, that shall say, The burden of the LORD, I will even punish that man and his house.

The verse 34 is found in chapter 23 of Jeremiah. God is not a deity limited to a distant territory: he fills heaven and earth. The prophets who say “I have dreamed” to justify their own messages are confronted by this universal presence. The warning against false “burdens” shows that manipulating Yahweh’s name turns revelation into an instrument of deception.

Und wo ein Prophet oder Priester oder das Volk wird sagen: "Das ist die Last des HERRN", den will ich heimsuchen und sein Haus dazu.
Y el profeta, y el sacerdote, o el pueblo, que dijere: Carga de Jehová; yo enviaré castigo sobre tal hombre y sobre su casa.
Al profeta, al sacerdote o a cualquiera del pueblo que diga: “Oráculo de Jehová”, lo castigaré a él y a su casa.
Et le prophète, le sacrificateur, ou celui du peuple Qui dira: Menace de l'Eternel, Je le châtierai, lui et sa maison.
E se alcun profeta, o sacerdote, o il popolo dice: Il carico del Signore; io farò punizione sopra quell’uomo, e sopra la sua casa.
E, quanto ao profeta, e ao sacerdote, e ao povo, que disser: Peso do SENHOR, eu castigarei o tal homem e a sua casa.
凡說「耶和華的默示」的,無論是先知、是祭司、是百姓,我必懲罰那人和他的家。
