1 the Lord’s word came to me, saying,
2 “Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel who prophesy, and say to those who prophesy out of their own heart, ‘Hear the Lord’s word:
3 Thus says the Lord GOD, “Woe to the foolish prophets, who follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing!
4 Israel, your prophets have been like foxes in the waste places.
5 You have not gone up into the gaps or built up the wall for the house of Israel, to stand in the battle in the Lord’s day.
6 They have seen falsehood and lying divination, who say, ‘the Lord says;’ but the Lord has not sent them. They have made men to hope that the word would be confirmed.
