32
Behold, I am against them that prophesy lying dreams, saith Jehovah, and do tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their vain boasting: yet I sent them not, nor commanded them; neither do they profit this people at all, saith Jehovah.
Then Jehovah said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name; I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake I unto them: they prophesy unto you a lying vision, and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their own heart.
I have heard what the prophets have said, that prophesy lies in my name, saying, I have dreamed, I have dreamed.
The prophet that hath a dream, let him tell a dream; and he that hath my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the straw to the wheat? saith Jehovah.
And if the prophet be deceived and speak a word, I, Jehovah, have deceived that prophet, and I will stetch out my hand upon him, and will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel.
Her prophets are light and treacherous persons; her priests have profaned the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law.
