18. For who has stood in the council of Yahweh, that he should perceive and hear his word? Who has listend to my word, and heard it?
19. Behold, Yahweh’s storm, his wrath, has gone out. Yes, a whirling storm. It shall burst on the head of the wicked.
20. Yahweh’s anger shall not return, until he has executed, and until he has performed the intents of his heart. In the latter days, you will understand it perfectly.
21. I didn’t send these prophets, yet they ran. I didn’t speak to them, yet they prophesied.
22. But if they had stood in my council, then they would have caused my people to hear my words, and would have turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.
23. “Am I a God at hand,” says Yahweh, “and not a God afar off?
24. Can anyone hide himself in secret places so that I can’t see him?” says Yahweh. “Don’t I fill heaven and earth?” says Yahweh.
25. “I have heard what the prophets have said, who prophesy lies in my name, saying, ‘I had a dream! I had a dream!’
26. How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets who prophesy lies, even the prophets of the deceit of their own heart?
27. They intend to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they each tell his neighbor, as their fathers forgot my name because of Baal.
