I haue heard what the prophets said, that prophecie lyes in my Name, saying; I haue dreamed, I haue dreamed.

How long shall this bee in the heart of the prophets that prophecie lies? yea they are prophets of the deceit of their owne heart;

Which thinke to cause my people to forget my Name by their dreames which they tell euery man to his neighbour, as their fathers haue forgotten my Name, for Baal.

The prophet that hath a dreame, let him tell a dreame; and hee that hath my word, let him speake my word faithfully: what is the chaffe to the wheat, sayth the Lord ?

Is not my word like as a fire, saith the Lord ? and like a hammer that breaketh the rocke in pieces?

Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, sayth the Lord, that steale my worde euery one from his neighbour.

Beholde, I am against the prophets, saith the Lord, that vse their tongues, and say; He sayth.

Behold, I am against them that prophecie false dreames, sayeth the Lord, and doe tell them, and cause my people to erre by their lyes and by their lightnesse, yet I sent them not, nor commanded them: therefore they shall not profite this people at all, sayth the Lord.
