1. The word of Adonai came to me saying:
2. “Son of man, prophesy concerning the prophets of Israel, who are prophesying, say to those who prophesy out of their own heart, hear the word of Adonai,
3. thus says Adonai Elohim: ‘Woe to the foolish prophets who follow their own spirit—except they have seen nothing!
4. O Israel, your prophets have been like jackals among ruins.
5. You have not gone up into the breaches and repaired the walls for the house of Israel, to stand in the battle in the day of Adonai.
6. They have prophesied emptiness and predicted falsely, who say, “Adonai says.” Adonai has not sent them, yet they hope for confirmation of their word.
