Ezekiel 13:5-7

Expanded Bible

⁵ You have not gone up into the ·broken places [breaches] or repaired the wall for the ·nation [^Lhouse of] Israel [^CIsrael is portrayed as a house or fortress in ruins]. So how can Israel ·hold back the enemy [stand firm] in the battle on the ·Lord’s day of judging [^LDay of the Lord]? ⁶ ·Your prophets [^LThey] see false visions and ·prophesy [their divinations are] lies. They say, “This is the message of the Lord,” when the Lord has not sent them. But they still hope their words will ·come true [stand]. ⁷ You said, “This is the message of the Lord,” but ·you have seen false visions and your prophecies are lies [^Lhave you not seen a false vision and uttered a lying divination…?], because I have not spoken.
