So do not listen to your [false] prophets, your diviners, your dreamers [and your dreams, whether your own or others’], your soothsayers, your sorcerers, who say to you, You shall not serve the king of Babylon.

10 For they prophesy a lie to you which will cause you to be removed far from your land; and I will drive you out, and you will perish.
