26 How long will deceitful prophecies dominate the minds of the prophets? Those prophets are treacherous.
27 They scheme to make my people forget me by their dreams that people tell each other, just as their ancestors forgot me because of Baal.
28 Let the prophet who has a dream declare it, but let the one who has my word proclaim it faithfully.What a difference between straw and wheat!declares the Lord.
29 Isn’t my word like fireand like a hammer that shatters rock?declares the Lord.
30 Therefore, I’m against the prophetswho steal my words from each other,declares the Lord.
31 I’m against the prophetswho carelessly deliver oracles,declares the Lord.
32 I’m against the prophets who dream up liesand then proclaim them,declares the Lord.With their reckless lies,they lead my people astray.I didn’t send them;I didn’t commission them.They are completely useless to these people,declares the Lord.
