1. The word of the Lord came to me:
2. “Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel who are prophesying. Say to those who prophesy out of their own imagination: Hear the word of the Lord!
3. This is what the Lord God says: Woe to the foolish prophets who follow their own spirit and have seen nothing.
4. Your prophets, Israel, are like jackals among ruins.
5. You did not go up to the gaps or restore the wall around the house of Israel so that it might stand in battle on the day of the Lord.
