21 I sent not these prophets, yet they run: I worded not to them, yet they prophesy.
22 But had they stood in my private counsel and had my people heard my words, then they had turned them from their evil way and from the evil of their exploits.
23 I am an Elohim nearby - an oracle of Yah Veh; and not an Elohim afar off!
24 Hides man himself in coverts that I not see him? - an oracle of Yah Veh. Fill I not the heavens and earth? - an oracle of Yah Veh.
25 I hear what the prophets say - who prophesy falsehoods in my name, saying, I dreamed! I dreamed!
26 Until when is this in the heart of the prophets who prophesy falsehoods? - yes, prophets of the deceit of their own heart;
27 who fabricate to have my people forget my name by the dreams they scribe every man to his friend - as their fathers forgot my name for Baal.
28 The prophet, having a dream, have him scribe a dream; and he, having my word, have him word my word in truth. What is the straw to the grain? - an oracle of Yah Veh.
29 Is not my word thus as a fire? - an oracle of Yah Veh and as a hammer shattering the rock?
30 So behold, I am against the prophets - an oracle of Yah Veh who steal my words, every man from his friend.
31 Behold, I am against the prophets - an oracle of Yah Veh who take their tongues and say, - an oracle!
32 Behold, I am against them who prophesy false dreams - an oracle of Yah Veh and scribe them; and stray my people by their falsehoods and by their frothiness; and I - I neither sent them nor misvahed them: in benefitting, they benefit this people not - an oracle of Yah Veh.
