²⁵I have heard what the prophets said, ^hthat prophesy lies in my name, saying, I ⁱhave dreamed, I have dreamed. ²⁶How long shall this be in the heart of ^kthe prophets that prophesy lies? yea, they are ^lprophets of the deceit of their own heart; ²⁷which think to cause my people to forget my name ⁱby their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbour, ^mas their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal. ²⁸The prophet that hath a dream, ⁱlet him tell a dream; and he that hath my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the chaff to the wheat? saith the Lord. ²⁹ⁿIs not my word like as a fire? saith the Lord; and like a hammer that ^obreaketh the rock in pieces? ³⁰Therefore behold, ^pI am against the prophets, saith the Lord, that steal my words every one from his neighbour. ³¹Behold, I am against the prophets, saith the Lord, that use their tongues, and say, He saith. ³²Behold, I am against them ⁱthat prophesy false dreams, saith the Lord, and do tell them, and ^qcause my people to err by their lies, and by their ^rlightness; ^syet I sent them not, nor commanded them: therefore they shall not profit this people at all, saith the Lord.
