29. Is not My word like fire, says the Lord, and like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces?
30. See, therefore I am against the prophets, says the Lord, who steal My words, each from his neighbor.
31. See, I am against the prophets, says the Lord, who use their tongues and say, “The Lord says.”
32. See, I am against those who prophesy false dreams, says the Lord, and recount them and cause My people to err by their lies and reckless boasting. Yet I sent them not nor commanded them. Therefore they shall not profit this people at all, says the Lord.
33. When this people or the prophet or a priest asks you, saying, “What is the oracle of the Lord?” you shall then say to them, “What oracle? I will forsake you, says the Lord.”
34. As for the prophet and the priest and the people who say, “The oracle of the Lord,” I will punish that man and his house.
