Thus says the Lord:

Regarding the prophets
    who mislead My people—
the ones who have something to eat
    proclaim “Peace,”
but if one does not feed them,
    then they prepare for war against him.
Therefore you will have night without vision,
    and you will have darkness without divination;
the sun will set upon the prophets,
    and black upon them will be the day.
The seers will be shamed
    and the diviners disgraced,
and they will all cover their beards,
    for there is no answer from God.

Thus says the Lord (A)concerning the prophets
Who make my people stray;
Who chant [a]“Peace”
[b]While they (B)chew with their teeth,
But who prepare war against him
(C)Who puts nothing into their mouths:
“Therefore(D) you shall have night without [c]vision,
And you shall have darkness without divination;
The sun shall go down on the prophets,
And the day shall be dark for (E)them.
So the seers shall be ashamed,
And the diviners abashed;
Indeed they shall all cover their lips;
(F)For there is no answer from God.”
