Ezekiel 12:21-28
21Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying, 22“Son of man, what is this 1proverb you people have about the land of Israel, saying, ‘The 2days are long, and every 3vision fails’? 23Therefore say to them, ‘This is what the Lord God says: “I will put an end to this proverb so that they will no longer use it as a proverb in Israel.” But tell them, “4The days are approaching as well as the 5fulfillment of every vision. 24For there will no longer be any 67false vision or deceptive divination within the house of Israel. 25For I the Lord will speak whatever 8word I speak, and it will be performed. It will no longer be delayed, for in 9your days, you 10rebellious house, I will speak the word and perform it,” declares the Lord God.’”
26Furthermore, the word of the Lord came to me, saying, 27“Son of man, behold, the house of Israel is saying, ‘The vision that he sees is for 11many 12years from now, and he prophesies of times far off.’ 28Therefore say to them, ‘This is what the Lord God says: “None of My words will be delayed any longer. Whatever word I speak will be performed,”’” declares the Lord God.
