And the people H5971 shall be oppressed, H5065 every H376 one H376 by another, and every H376 one H376 by his neighbor: H7453 the child H5288 shall behave H7292 himself proudly H7292 against the ancient, H2204 and the base H7034 against the honorable. H3519

Therefore H3651 my people H5971 are gone into captivity, H1540 because they have no H1097 knowledge: H1847 and their honorable H3519 men H4962 are famished, H7458 and their multitude H1995 dried H6704 up with thirst. H6772

And he said H559 to him, Behold H2009 now, H4994 there is in this H2063 city H5892 a man H376 of God, H430 and he is an honorable H3513 man; H376 all H3605 that he said H1696 comes H935 surely to pass: now H6258 let us go H3212 thither; H8033 peradventure H194 he can show H5046 us our way H1870 that we should go. H1980

Judgment H4941 also will I lay H7760 to the line, H6957 and righteousness H6666 to the plummet: H4949 and the hail H1259 shall sweep H3261 away the refuge H4268 of lies, H3576 and the waters H4325 shall overflow H7857 the hiding H5643 place.

For the LORD H3068 has poured H5258 out on you the spirit H7307 of deep H8639 sleep, H8639 and has closed H6105 your eyes: H5869 the prophets H5030 and your rulers, H7218 the seers H2374 has he covered. H3680

He said H559 to him, I am a prophet H5030 also H1571 as you are; and an angel H4397 spoke H1696 to me by the word H1697 of the LORD, H3068 saying, H559 Bring H7725 him back H7725 with you into H413 your house, H1004 that he may eat H398 bread H3899 and drink H8354 water. H4325 But he lied H3584 to him.

And the LORD H3068 said H559 to him, With H4100 which? And he said, H559 I will go H3318 forth, H3318 and I will be a lying H8267 spirit H7307 in the mouth H6310 of all H3605 his prophets. H5030 And he said, H559 You shall persuade H6601 him, and prevail H3201 also: H1571 go H3318 forth, H3318 and do H6213 so. H3651

But Zedekiah H6667 the son H1121 of Chenaanah H3668 went H5674 near, H5066 and smote H5221 Micaiah H4321 on H5921 the cheek, H3895 and said, H559 Which H335 H2088 way H2088 went H5674 the Spirit H7307 of the LORD H3068 from me to speak H1696 to you?

The prophets H5030 prophesy H5012 falsely, H8267 and the priests H3548 bear H7287 rule H7287 by their means; H3027 and my people H5971 love H157 to have it so: H3651 and what H4100 will you do H6213 in the end H319 thereof?

Then the LORD H3068 said H559 to me, The prophets H5030 prophesy H5012 lies H8267 in my name: H8034 I sent H7971 them not, neither H3808 have I commanded H6680 them, neither H3808 spoke H1696 to them: they prophesy H5012 to you a false H8267 vision H2377 and divination, H7081 and a thing of nothing, H434 and the deceit H8649 of their heart. H3820

Therefore H3651 thus H3541 said H559 the LORD H3068 concerning H5921 the prophets H5030 that prophesy H5012 in my name, H8034 and I sent H7971 them not, yet they say, H559 Sword H2719 and famine H7458 shall not be in this H2063 land; H776 By sword H2719 and famine H7458 shall those H1992 prophets H5030 be consumed. H8552

My heart H3820 within H7130 me is broken H7665 because of the prophets; H5030 all H3605 my bones H6106 shake; H7363 I am like a drunken H7910 man, H376 and like a man H1397 whom wine H3196 has overcome, H5674 because H6440 of the LORD, H3068 and because H6440 of the words H1697 of his holiness. H6944

I have seen H7200 also in the prophets H5030 of Jerusalem H3389 an horrible H8186 thing: they commit H5003 adultery, H5003 and walk H1980 in lies: H8267 they strengthen H2388 also the hands H3027 of evildoers, H7489 that none H1115 does return H7725 from his wickedness; H7451 they are all H3605 of them to me as Sodom, H5467 and the inhabitants H3427 thereof as Gomorrah. H6017

Therefore H3651 thus H3541 said H559 the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635 concerning H5921 the prophets; H5030 Behold, H2005 I will feed H398 them with wormwood, H3939 and make them drink H8248 the water H4325 of gall: H7219 for from the prophets H5030 of Jerusalem H3389 is profaneness H2613 gone H3318 forth H3318 into all H3605 the land. H776

I have heard H8085 what H853 H834 the prophets H5030 said, H559 that prophesy H5012 lies H8267 in my name, H8034 saying, H559 I have dreamed, H2492 I have dreamed. H2492

Which think H2803 to cause my people H5971 to forget H7911 my name H8034 by their dreams H2472 which H834 they tell H5608 every man H376 to his neighbor, H7453 as their fathers H1 have forgotten H7911 my name H8034 for Baal. H1168

Therefore listen H8085 not you to your prophets, H5030 nor to your diviners, H7080 nor to your dreamers, H2492 nor to your enchanters, H6049 nor to your sorcerers, H3786 which H834 speak H559 to you, saying, H559 You shall not serve H5647 the king H4428 of Babylon: H894

For they prophesy H5012 a lie H8267 to you, to remove H7368 you far H7368 from your land; H127 and that I should drive H5080 you out, and you should perish. H6

Therefore listen H8085 not to the words H1697 of the prophets H5030 that speak H559 to you, saying, H559 You shall not serve H5647 the king H4428 of Babylon: H894 for they prophesy H5012 a lie H8267 to you.

For I have not sent H7971 them, said H5002 the LORD, H3068 yet they prophesy H5012 a lie H8267 in my name; H8034 that I might drive H5080 you out, and that you might perish, H6 you, and the prophets H5030 that prophesy H5012 to you.

Then said H559 the prophet H5030 Jeremiah H3414 to Hananiah H2608 the prophet, H5030 Hear H8085 now, H4994 Hananiah; H2608 The LORD H3068 has not sent H7971 you; but you make this H2008 people H5971 to trust H982 in a lie. H8267

Therefore H3651 thus H3541 said H559 the LORD; H3068 Behold, H2005 I will cast H7971 you from off H5921 the face H6440 of the earth: H127 this year H8141 you shall die, H4191 because H3588 you have taught H1696 rebellion H5627 against H413 the LORD. H3068

Thus H3541 said H559 the LORD H3068 of hosts, H6635 the God H430 of Israel, H3478 of Ahab H256 the son H1121 of Kolaiah, H6964 and of Zedekiah H6667 the son H1121 of Maaseiah, H4641 which prophesy H5012 a lie H8267 to you in my name; H8034 Behold, H2009 I will deliver H5414 them into the hand H3027 of Nebuchadrezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon; H894 and he shall slay H5221 them before your eyes; H5869

And of them shall be taken H3947 up a curse H7045 by all H3605 the captivity H1546 of Judah H3063 which H834 are in Babylon, H894 saying, H559 The LORD H3068 make H7760 you like Zedekiah H6667 and like Ahab, H256 whom H834 the king H4428 of Babylon H894 roasted H7033 in the fire; H784

And the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 came H1961 to me, saying, H559

Thus H3541 said H559 the Lord H136 GOD; H3069 Woe H1945 to the foolish H5036 prophets, H5030 that follow H1980 H310 their own spirit, H7307 and have seen H7200 nothing! H1115

You have not gone H5927 up into the gaps, H6556 neither made H1443 up the hedge H1447 for the house H1004 of Israel H3478 to stand H5975 in the battle H4421 in the day H3117 of the LORD. H3068

Have you not seen H2372 a vain H7723 vision, H4236 and have you not spoken H1696 a lying H3577 divination, H4738 whereas you say, H559 The LORD H3068 said H5002 it; albeit I have not spoken? H559

And my hand H3027 shall be on the prophets H5030 that see H2374 vanity, H7723 and that divine H7080 lies: H3576 they shall not be 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 the land H127 of Israel; H3478 and you shall know H3045 that I am the Lord H136 GOD. H3069

Say H559 to them which daub H2902 it with untempered H8602 mortar, that it shall fall: H5307 there shall be an overflowing H7857 shower; H1653 and you, O great H417 hailstones, H68 H417 shall fall; H5307 and a stormy H5591 wind H7307 shall rend H1234 it.

Therefore H3651 thus H3541 said 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 an overflowing H7857 shower H1653 in my anger, H639 and great H417 hailstones H68 H417 in my fury H2534 to consume H3615 it.

Thus will I accomplish H3615 my wrath H2534 on the wall, H7023 and on them that have daubed H2902 it with untempered H8602 mortar, and will say H559 to you, The wall H7023 is no H369 more, neither H369 they that daubed H2902 it;

The watchman H6822 of Ephraim H669 was with my God: H430 but the prophet H5030 is a snare H6341 of a fowler H3353 in all H3605 his ways, H1870 and hatred H4895 in the house H1004 of his God. H430

Therefore have I also H1571 made H5414 you contemptible H959 and base H8217 before all H3605 the people, H5971 according H6310 as you have not kept H8104 my ways, H1870 but have been partial H5375 H6440 in the law. H8451

Beware G4337 of false G5578 prophets, G5578 which G3748 come G2064 to you in sheep's G4263 clothing, G1742 but inwardly G2081 they are ravening G727 wolves. G3074

For there shall arise G1453 false Christs, G5580 and false G5578 prophets, G5578 and shall show G1325 great G3173 signs G4592 and wonders; G5059 so G5620 that, if G1487 it were possible, G1415 they shall deceive G4105 the very G2532 elect. G1588

For such G5108 are false G5570 apostles, G5570 deceitful G1386 workers, G2040 transforming G3345 themselves into G1519 the apostles G652 of Christ. G5547

Therefore G3767 it is no G3762 great G3173 thing if G1499 his ministers G1249 also G2532 be transformed G3345 as the ministers G1249 of righteousness; G1343 whose G3739 end G5056 shall be according G2596 to their works. G2041

But though G1437 we, or G2228 an angel G32 from heaven, G3772 preach G2097 any other gospel G2097 to you than G3844 that which G3739 we have preached G2097 to you, let him be accursed. G331

As we said G4280 before, G4280 so G2532 say G3004 I now G737 again, G3825 if G1487 any G1536 man preach G2097 any G1536 other gospel G2097 to you than G3844 that you have received, G3880 let him be accursed. G331

Even him, whose G3739 coming G3952 is after G2596 the working G1753 of Satan G4567 with all G3956 power G1411 and signs G4592 and lying G5579 wonders, G5059

And for this G5124 cause G1223 God G2316 shall send G3992 them strong G1753 delusion, G4106 that they should believe G4100 a lie: G5579

Preach G2784 the word; G3056 be instant G2186 in season, G2121 out of season; G171 reprove, G1651 rebuke, G2008 exhort G3870 with all G3956 long-suffering G3115 and doctrine. G1322

For the time G2540 will come G1511 when G3753 they will not endure G430 sound G5198 doctrine; G1319 but after G2596 their own G2398 lusts G1939 shall they heap G2002 to themselves G1438 teachers, G1320 having itching G2833 ears; G189

But there were false G5578 prophets G5578 also G2532 among G1722 the people, G2992 even G2532 as there shall be false G5572 teachers G5572 among G1722 you, who G3748 privately G3919 shall bring G3919 in damnable G684 heresies, G139 even G2532 denying G720 the Lord G1203 that bought G59 them, and bring G1863 on themselves G1438 swift G5031 destruction. G684

And through G1722 covetousness G4124 shall they with feigned G4112 words G3056 make G1710 merchandise of you: whose G3739 judgment G2917 now of a long time G1597 lingers G691 not, and their damnation G684 slumbers G3573 not.

Beloved, G27 believe G4100 not every G3956 spirit, G4151 but try G1381 the spirits G4151 whether G1487 they are of God: G2316 because G3754 many G4183 false G5578 prophets G5578 are gone G1831 out into G1519 the world. G2889

And the beast G2342 was taken, G4084 and with him the false G5578 prophet G5578 that worked G4160 miracles G4592 before G1799 him, with which G3739 he deceived G4105 them that had received G2983 the mark G5480 of the beast, G2342 and them that worshipped G4352 his image. G1504 These G3588 both G1417 were cast G906 alive G2198 into G1519 a lake G3041 of fire G4442 burning G2545 with brimstone. G2303
