Yirmiyahu (Jeremiah) — Perek 28

The false prophet Chananya breaks Yirmiyahu's wooden yoke, resulting in a yoke of iron.

Chananya publicly contradicts Yirmiyahu, falsely prophesying that the Babylonian exile will end within two years and breaks the wooden yoke off Yirmiyahu's neck. Yirmiyahu walks away, but Hashem tells him to return and declare that the wooden yoke has been replaced by an unbreakable yoke of iron. Yirmiyahu prophesies Chananya's death, which occurs two months later.
