Ezekiel 13:8-16

8Therefore, this is what the Lord God says: “Because you have spoken deceit and have seen a lie, therefore behold, 1I am against you,” declares the Lord God. 9“So My hand will be against the 2prophets who see false visions and utter lying divinations. They will 3have no place in the council of My people, 4nor will they be written down in the register of the house of Israel, nor will they enter the land of Israel, 5so that you may know that I am the Lord God. 10It is definitely because they have 6misled My people by saying, ‘7Peace!’ when there is 8no peace. And when anyone builds a wall, behold, they plaster it over with whitewash; 11so tell those who plaster it over with whitewash, that it will fall. A 9flooding rain will come, and you, hailstones, will fall, and a violent wind will break out. 12Behold, when the wall has fallen, will you not be asked, ‘Where is the plaster with which you plastered it?’” 13Therefore, this is what the Lord God says: “I will make a violent wind break out in My wrath. There will also be in My anger a flooding rain and 10hailstones to consume it in wrath. 14So I will tear down the wall which you plastered over with whitewash and hurl it down to the ground, so that its 11foundation is exposed; and when it falls, you will 12perish in its midst. And you will 13know that I am the Lord. 15So I will expend My wrath on the wall and on those who have plastered it over with whitewash; and I will say to you, ‘The wall 14is gone and those who plastered it are gone, 16along with the prophets of Israel who prophesy to Jerusalem, and who 15see a vision of peace for her when there is 16no peace,’ declares the Lord God.
