Then you will know that I am the Lord. 22 Because you have disheartened the righteous person with lies (when I intended no distress),(B) and because you have supported[a] the wicked(C) person so that he does not turn from his evil way to save his life, 23 therefore you will no longer see false visions or practice divination.(D) I will rescue my people from your hands. Then you will know that I am the Lord.’”
