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.

¹⁷ They say continually to those who despise the word of the Lord, ^(A)‘It shall be well with you’; and to everyone who ^(B)stubbornly follows his own heart, they say, ^(C)‘No disaster shall come upon you.’”
