NLV
1. Then the Word of the Lord came to me saying,
1. And the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 came H1961 unto H413 me, saying H559 ,
2. "Son of man, speak against those of Israel who speak false words in My name. Say to those who tell what is going to happen in the future out of their own minds, 'Listen to the Word of the Lord!
2. Son H1121 of man H120 , prophesy H5012 against H413 the prophets H5030 of Israel H3478 that prophesy H5012 , and say H559 thou unto them that prophesy H5030 out of their own hearts H4480 H3820 , Hear H8085 ye the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 ;
3. The Lord God says, "It is bad for the foolish people who tell what is going to happen by following their own spirit and have seen nothing.
3. Thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD H3069 ; Woe H1945 unto H5921 the foolish H5036 prophets H5030 , that H834 follow H1980 H310 their own spirit H7307 , and have seen H7200 nothing H1115 !
4. O Israel, your men who speak in My name are of no more worth than foxes in destroyed cities.
4. O Israel H3478 , thy prophets H5030 are H1961 like the foxes H7776 in the deserts H2723 .
5. You have not gone up to the broken places to build the wall around the people of Israel so that it will stand in the battle on the day of the Lord.
5. Ye have not H3808 gone up H5927 into the gaps H6556 , neither made up H1443 the hedge H1447 for H5921 the house H1004 of Israel H3478 to stand H5975 in the battle H4421 in the day H3117 of the LORD H3068 .
6. They have lied and have spoken false words using their secret ways, saying, 'This is what the Lord says,' when the Lord has not sent them. Yet they hope that what they say will come true.
6. They have seen H2372 vanity H7723 and lying H3577 divination H7081 , saying H559 , The LORD H3068 saith H5002 : and the LORD H3068 hath not H3808 sent H7971 them : and they have made others to hope H3176 that they would confirm H6965 the word H1697 .
7. Did you not see a false dream and tell a lie using your secret ways when you said, 'This is what the Lord says,' when I have not spoken?" ' "
7. Have ye not H3808 seen H2372 a vain H7723 vision H4236 , and have ye not spoken H559 a lying H3577 divination H4738 , whereas ye say H559 , The LORD H3068 saith H5002 it ; albeit I H589 have not H3808 spoken H1696 ?
8. So the Lord God says: "Because you have spoken false words and seen a lie, I am against you," says the Lord God.
8. Therefore H3651 thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD H3069 ; Because H3282 ye have spoken H1696 vanity H7723 , and seen H2372 lies H3577 , therefore H3651 , behold H2009 , I am against H413 you, saith H5002 the Lord H136 GOD H3069 .
9. "My hand will be against those who see false dreams and speak false words. They will have no place in the gathering of My wise people. Their names will not be written down with the people of Israel. And they will not go into the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the Lord God.
9. And mine hand H3027 shall be H1961 upon H413 the prophets H5030 that see H2372 vanity H7723 , and that divine H7080 lies H3577 : they shall not H3808 be H1961 in the assembly H5475 of my people H5971 , neither H3808 shall they be written H3789 in the writing H3791 of the house H1004 of Israel H3478 , neither H3808 shall they enter H935 into H413 the land H127 of Israel H3478 ; and ye shall know H3045 that H3588 I H589 am the Lord H136 GOD H3069 .
10. Because they have led My people the wrong way by saying, 'Peace,' when there is no peace, and because, when anyone builds a bad wall, they cover it with whitewash,
10. Because H3282 , even because H3282 they have seduced H2937 H853 my people H5971 , saying H559 , Peace H7965 ; and there was no H369 peace H7965 ; and one H1931 built up H1129 a wall H2434 , and, lo H2009 , others daubed H2902 it with untempered H8602 mortar :
11. tell those who cover it with whitewash that it will fall! A flood of rain will come, and large hailstones will fall. And a strong wind will break out.
11. Say H559 unto H413 them which daub H2902 it with untempered H8602 mortar , that it shall fall H5307 : there shall be H1961 an overflowing H7857 shower H1653 ; and ye H859 , O great hailstones H68 H417 , shall fall H5307 ; and a stormy H5591 wind H7307 shall rend H1234 it .
12. When the wall has fallen, will you not be asked, 'Where is the covering you used to cover the wall?' "
12. Lo H2009 , when the wall H7023 is fallen H5307 , shall it not H3808 be said H559 unto H413 you, Where H346 is the daubing H2915 wherewith H834 ye have daubed H2902 it ?
13. So the Lord God says, "I will make a strong wind break out in My anger. There will also be a flood of rain in My anger, and large hailstones to destroy that wall.
13. Therefore H3651 thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD H3069 ; I will even rend H1234 it with a stormy H5591 wind H7307 in my fury H2534 ; and there shall be H1961 an overflowing H7857 shower H1653 in mine anger H639 , and great hailstones H68 H417 in my fury H2534 to consume H3617 it .
14. I will break down the wall that you covered with whitewash. I will bring it down to the ground so that its base will be showing. And when it falls, you will be destroyed with it. Then you will know that I am the Lord.
14. So will I break down H2040 H853 the wall H7023 that H834 ye have daubed H2902 with untempered H8602 mortar , and bring it down H5060 to H413 the ground H776 , so that the foundation H3247 thereof shall be discovered H1540 , and it shall fall H5307 , and ye shall be consumed H3615 in the midst H8432 thereof : and ye shall know H3045 that H3588 I H589 am the LORD H3068 .
15. I will send My anger upon the wall and upon those who have covered it with whitewash. And I will say to you, 'The wall is gone and the ones who covered it are gone.
15. Thus will I accomplish H3615 H853 my wrath H2534 upon the wall H7023 , and upon them that have daubed H2902 it with untempered H8602 mortar , and will say H559 unto you , The wall H7023 is no H369 more , neither H369 they that daubed H2902 it;
16. There are no more people of Israel who speak false words to Jerusalem in My name, and who see dreams of peace for her when there is no peace,' says the Lord God.
16. To wit , the prophets H5030 of Israel H3478 which prophesy H5012 concerning H413 Jerusalem H3389 , and which see H2372 visions H2377 of peace H7965 for her , and there is no H369 peace H7965 , saith H5002 the Lord H136 GOD H3069 .
17. "Now, son of man, set your face against the daughters of your people who are telling what will happen from their own minds. Speak against them,
17. Likewise, thou H859 son H1121 of man H120 , set H7760 thy face H6440 against H413 the daughters H1323 of thy people H5971 , which prophesy H5012 out of H4480 their own heart H3820 ; and prophesy H5012 thou against H5921 them,
18. and tell them, 'This is what the Lord God says: "It is bad for the women who sew objects with secret powers to wear on their arms, and make coverings for the heads to trap people. Will you go after the lives of My people, but save the lives of others for yourselves?
18. And say H559 , Thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD H3069 ; Woe H1945 to the women that sew H8609 pillows H3704 to H5921 all H3605 armholes H679 H3027 , and make H6213 kerchiefs H4555 upon H5921 the head H7218 of every H3605 stature H6967 to hunt H6679 souls H5315 ! Will ye hunt H6679 the souls H5315 of my people H5971 , and will ye save the souls alive H2421 H5315 that come unto you?
19. You have used Me in a sinful way among My people for hands full of barley and for pieces of bread. You have killed people who should not die, and have kept others alive who should not live, by your lying to My people who listen to lies." ' "
19. And will ye pollute H2490 me among H413 my people H5971 for handfuls H8168 of barley H8184 and for pieces H6595 of bread H3899 , to slay H4191 the souls H5315 that H834 should not H3808 die H4191 , and to save the souls alive H2421 H5315 that H834 should not H3808 live H2421 , by your lying H3576 to my people H5971 that hear H8085 your lies H3577 ?
20. So the Lord God says, "I am against your objects with secret powers that you wear on your arms with which you trap people like birds. I will tear them from your arms. And I will let the people go that you trap like birds.
20. Wherefore H3651 thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD H3069 ; Behold H2009 , I am against H413 your pillows H3704 , wherewith H834 ye H859 there H8033 hunt H6679 H853 the souls H5315 to make them fly H6524 , and I will tear H7167 them from H4480 H5921 your arms H2220 , and will let the souls go H7971 H853 H5315 , even H853 the souls H5315 that H834 ye H859 hunt H6679 to make them fly H6524 .
21. I will also tear off your head-coverings and save My people from you. They will no longer be trapped by your hands. Then you will know that I am the Lord.
21. H853 Your kerchiefs H4555 also will I tear H7167 , and deliver H5337 H853 my people H5971 out of your hand H4480 H3027 , and they shall be H1961 no H3808 more H5750 in your hand H3027 to be hunted H4686 ; and ye shall know H3045 that H3588 I H589 am the LORD H3068 .
22. You have made My good people sad because of your lies whom I did not want to hurt. But you have helped the sinful man, so that he does not turn from his sinful way and save his life.
22. Because H3282 with lies H8267 ye have made the heart H3820 of the righteous H6662 sad H3512 , whom I H589 have not H3808 made sad H3510 ; and strengthened H2388 the hands H3027 of the wicked H7563 , that he should not H1115 return H7725 from his wicked way H4480 H1870 H7451 , by promising him life H2421 :
23. So you women will no longer see false dreams or use your secret ways to learn the future. I will save My people from your hands. And then you will know that I am the Lord."
23. Therefore H3651 ye shall see H2372 no H3808 more H5750 vanity H7723 , nor H3808 divine H7080 divinations H7081 : for I will deliver H5337 H853 my people H5971 out of your hand H4480 H3027 : and ye shall know H3045 that H3588 I H589 am the LORD H3068 .
