w“one should not preach of such things;
xdisgrace will not overtake us.”
7Should this be said, O house of Jacob?
vHas the Lord grown impatient?2
Are these his deeds?
Do not my words do good
to him who walks uprightly?

“Don’t say such things,”
the people respond.
“Don’t prophesy like that.
Such disasters will never come our way!”
Should you talk that way, O family of Israel?
Will the Lord’s Spirit have patience with such behavior?
If you would do what is right,
you would find my words comforting.

Prophesy ye not, say they to them that prophesy:
They shall not prophesy to them, that they shall not take shame.
O thou that art named the house of Jacob,
Is the spirit of the Lord straitened?
Are these his doings?
Do not my words do good to him that walketh uprightly?
