“Then said Jeremiah, It is false; I fall not away to the Chaldeans. But he hearkened not to him: so Irijah took Jeremiah, and brought him to the princes.”
The consequence: '"And the officials were enraged at Jeremiah and beat him and imprisoned him."' The officials' violence demonstrates their hostility. Those in power may respond to prophecy with persecution.
