1 The word of the LORD came to me:2 "Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel who are now prophesying. Say to those who prophesy out of their own imagination: 'Hear the word of the LORD!3 This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Woe to the foolish "prophets who follow their own spirit and have seen nothing!4 Your prophets, Israel, are like jackals among ruins.5 You have not gone up to the breaches in the wall to repair it for the people of Israel so that it will stand firm in the battle on the day of the LORD.6 Their visions are false and their divinations a lie. Even though the LORD has not sent them, they say, "The LORD declares," and expect him to fulfill their words.7 Have you not seen false visions and uttered lying divinations when you say, "The LORD declares," though I have not spoken?8 "'Therefore this is what the Sovereign LORD says: Because of your false words and lying visions, I am against you, declares the Sovereign LORD.9 My hand will be against the prophets who see false visions and utter lying divinations. They will not belong to the council of my people or be listed in the records of Israel, nor will they enter the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the Sovereign LORD.10 "'Because they lead my people astray, saying, "Peace," when there is no peace, and because, when a flimsy wall is built, they cover it with whitewash,11 therefore tell those who cover it with whitewash that it is going to fall. Rain will come in torrents, and I will send hailstones hurtling down, and violent winds will burst forth.12 When the wall collapses, will people not ask you, "Where is the whitewash you covered it with?"13 "'Therefore this is what the Sovereign LORD says: In my wrath I will unleash a violent wind, and in my anger hailstones and torrents of rain will fall with destructive fury.14 I will tear down the wall you have covered with whitewash and will level it to the ground so that its foundation will be laid bare. When it "falls, you will be destroyed in it; and you will know that I am the LORD.15 So I will pour out my wrath against the wall and against those who covered it with whitewash. I will say to you, "The wall is gone and so are those who whitewashed it,16 those prophets of Israel who prophesied to Jerusalem and saw visions of peace for her when there was no peace, declares the Sovereign LORD."'17 "Now, son of man, set your face against the daughters of your people who prophesy out of their own imagination. Prophesy against them18 and say, 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Woe to the women who sew magic charms on all their wrists and make veils of various lengths for their heads in order to ensnare people. Will you ensnare the lives of my people but preserve your own?19 You have profaned me among my people for a few handfuls of barley and scraps of bread. By lying to my people, who listen to lies, you have killed those who should not have died and have spared those who should not live.20 "'Therefore this is what the Sovereign LORD says: I am against your magic charms with which you ensnare people like birds and I will tear them from your arms; I will set free the people that you ensnare like birds.21 I will tear off your veils and save my people from your hands, and they will no longer fall prey to your power. Then you will know that I am the LORD.22 Because you disheartened the righteous with your lies, when I had brought them no grief, and because you encouraged the wicked not to turn from their evil ways and so save their lives,23 therefore you will no longer see false visions or practice divination. I will save my people from your hands. And then you will know that I am the LORD.'"

1 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens : 2 Fili hominis, vaticinare ad prophetas Isral qui prophetant, et dices prophetantibus de corde suo : [Audite verbum Domini.3 Hc dicit Dominus Deus :V prophetis insipientibus,qui sequuntur spiritum suum,et nihil vident !4 Quasi vulpes in desertis prophet tui, Isral, erant.5 Non ascendistis ex adverso,neque opposuistis murum pro domo Isral,ut staretis in prlio in die Domini.6 Vident vana, et divinant mendacium,dicentes : Ait Dominus,cum Dominus non miserit eos :et perseveraverunt confirmare sermonem.7 Numquid non visionem cassam vidistis,et divinationem mendacem locuti estis,et dicitis : Ait Dominus,cum ego non sim locutus ?8 Propterea hc dicit Dominus Deus :Quia locuti estis vana, et vidistis mendacium,ideo ecce ego ad vos, dicit Dominus Deus.9 Et erit manus mea super prophetasqui vident vana, et divinant mendacium :in consilio populi mei non erunt,et in scriptura domus Isral non scribentur,nec in terram Isral ingredientur,et scietis quia ego Dominus Deus :10 eo quod deceperint populum meum,dicentes : Pax, et non est pax :et ipse dificabat parietem,illi autem liniebant eum luto absque paleis.11 Dic ad eos qui liniunt absque temperatura, quod casurus sit :erit enim imber inundans,et dabo lapides prgrandes desuper irruentes,et ventum procell dissipantem.12 Siquidem ecce cecidit paries :numquid non dicetur vobis :Ubi est litura quam linistis ?13 Propterea hc dicit Dominus Deus :Et erumpere faciam spiritum tempestatum in indignatione mea,et imber inundans in furore meo erit,et lapides grandes in ira in consumptionem.14 Et destruam parietem quem linistis absque temperamento,et adquabo eum terr,et revelabitur fundamentum ejus :et cadet, et consumetur in medio ejus,et scietis quia ego sum Dominus.15 Et complebo indignationem meam in pariete,et in his qui liniunt eum absque temperamento :dicamque vobis : Non est paries,et non sunt qui liniunt eum :16 prophet Isral, qui prophetant ad Jerusalem,et vident ei visionem pacis, et non est pax,ait Dominus Deus.]17 Et tu, fili hominis, pone faciem tuam contra filias populi tui qu prophetant de corde suo : et vaticinare super eas, 18 et dic : [Hc dicit Dominus Deus :V qu consuunt pulvillos sub omni cubito manus,et faciunt cervicalia sub capite univers tatisad capiendas animas :et cum caperent animas populi mei,vivificabant animas eorum !19 Et violabant me ad populum meumpropter pugillum hordei, et fragmen panis,ut interficerent animas qu non moriuntur,et vivificarent animas qu non vivunt,mentientes populo meo credenti mendaciis.20 Propter hoc hc dicit Dominus Deus :Ecce ego ad pulvillos vestros,quibus vos capitis animas volantes :et dirumpam eos de brachiis vestris,et dimittam animas quas vos capitis,animas ad volandum.21 Et dirumpam cervicalia vestra,et liberabo populum meum de manu vestra,neque erunt ultra in manibus vestris ad prdandum :et scietis quia ego Dominus.22 Pro eo quod mrere fecistis cor justi mendaciter,quem ego non contristavi,et confortastis manus impii,ut non reverteretur a via sua mala, et viveret :23 propterea vana non videbitis,et divinationes non divinabitis amplius,et eruam populum meum de manu vestra :et scietis quia ego Dominus.]
