36 But you are no longer to mention the Lord’s message, because everyone thinks they have received a message from the Lord. You destroy the very word of the living God, the Lord of heavenly forces, our God.
37 So this is what you should say to the prophet: "What has the Lord said to you?" "What has the Lord declared?"
38 But if you insist on saying, "This is the Lord’s message," the Lord says to you: Because you have made this claim—this is the Lord’s message—when I told you not to proclaim the Lord’s message,
39 I will lift you up and cast you out of my presence, together with the city that I gave to your ancestors.
40 I will make you an object of disgrace and enduring shame that no one will ever forget.
