23. Am I a God at hand, saith the Lord, and not a God afar off?
24. Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the Lord. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the Lord.

26. How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies; even the prophets of the deceit of their own heart?
27. which think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbour, as their fathers forgat my name for Baal.
28. The prophet that hath a dream, let him tell a dream; and he that hath my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the straw to the wheat? saith the Lord.
29. Is not my word like as fire? saith the Lord; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?
