¹⁶ Thus says the Lord of hosts: “Do not listen to the words of the prophets who prophesy to you, ^(A)filling you with vain hopes. ^(B)They speak visions of their own minds, not from the mouth of the Lord.

²⁵ I have heard what the prophets have said ^(A)who prophesy lies in my name, saying, ^(B)‘I have dreamed, I have dreamed!’

^28 (A)Let the prophet who has a dream ^(B)tell the dream, but let him who has my word speak my word faithfully. ^(C)What has straw in common with wheat? declares the Lord.

³² Behold, I am against those who prophesy lying dreams, declares the Lord, and who tell them and ^(A)lead my people astray by their lies and their recklessness, when ^(B)I did not send them or charge them. So they do not profit this people at all, declares the Lord.
