21. "I did not send these prophets, But they ran. I did not speak to them, But they prophesied.

23. "Am I a God who is near," declares the Lord, "And not a God far off?
24. "Can a man hide himself in hiding places So I do not see him?" declares the Lord. "Do I not fill the heavens and the earth?" declares the Lord.
25. "I have heard what the prophets have said who prophesy falsely in My name, saying, 'I had a dream, I had a dream!'
26. How long? Is there anything in the hearts of the prophets who prophesy falsehood, even these prophets of the deception of their own heart,

28. The prophet who has a dream may relate his dream, but let him who has My word speak My word in truth. What does straw have in common with grain?" declares the Lord.
