Ezekiel 13:6-16
New King James Version
6 (A)They have envisioned futility and false divination, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord!’ But the Lord has (B)not sent them; yet they hope that the word may [a]be confirmed. 7 Have you not seen a futile vision, and have you not spoken false divination? You say, ‘The Lord says,’ but I have not spoken.”
8 Therefore thus says the Lord God: “Because you have spoken nonsense and envisioned lies, therefore I am indeed against you,” says the Lord God. 9 “My hand will be (C)against the prophets who envision futility and who (D)divine lies; they shall not be in the assembly of My people, (E)nor be written in the record of the house of Israel, (F)nor shall they enter into the land of Israel. (G)Then you shall know that I am the Lord God.
10 “Because, indeed, because they have seduced My people, saying, (H)‘Peace!’ when there is no peace—and one builds a wall, and they (I)plaster[b] it with untempered mortar— 11 say to those who plaster it with untempered mortar, that it will fall. (J)There will be flooding rain, and you, O great hailstones, shall fall; and a stormy wind shall tear it down. 12 Surely, when the wall has fallen, will it not be said to you, ‘Where is the mortar with which you plastered it?’ ”
13 Therefore thus says the Lord God: “I will cause a stormy wind to break forth in My fury; and there shall be a flooding rain in My anger, and great hailstones in fury to consume it. 14 So I will break down the wall you have plastered with untempered mortar, and bring it down to the ground, so that its foundation will be uncovered; it will fall, and you shall be consumed in the midst of it. (K)Then you shall know that I am the Lord.
15 “Thus will I accomplish My wrath on the wall and on those who have plastered it with untempered mortar; and I will say to you, ‘The wall is no more, nor those who plastered it, 16 that is, the prophets of Israel who prophesy concerning Jerusalem, and who (L)see visions of peace for her when there is no peace,’ ” says the Lord God.

Ezekiel 13:6-16
New International Version
6 Their visions are false(A) and their divinations a lie. Even though the Lord has not sent(B) them, they say, “The Lord declares,” and expect him to fulfill their words.(C) 7 Have you not seen false visions(D) and uttered lying divinations when you say, “The Lord declares,” though I have not spoken?
8 “‘Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: Because of your false words and lying visions, I am against you,(E) declares the Sovereign Lord. 9 My hand will be against the prophets who see false visions and utter lying(F) divinations. They will not belong to the council of my people or be listed in the records(G) of Israel, nor will they enter the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the Sovereign Lord.(H)
10 “‘Because they lead my people astray,(I) saying, “Peace,”(J) when there is no peace, and because, when a flimsy wall is built, they cover it with whitewash,(K) 11 therefore tell those who cover it with whitewash that it is going to fall. Rain will come in torrents, and I will send hailstones(L) hurtling down,(M) and violent winds will burst forth.(N) 12 When the wall collapses, will people not ask you, “Where is the whitewash you covered it with?”
13 “‘Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: In my wrath I will unleash a violent wind, and in my anger hailstones(O) and torrents of rain(P) will fall with destructive fury.(Q) 14 I will tear down the wall(R) you have covered with whitewash and will level it to the ground so that its foundation(S) will be laid bare. When it[a] falls,(T) you will be destroyed in it; and you will know that I am the Lord. 15 So I will pour out my wrath against the wall and against those who covered it with whitewash. I will say to you, “The wall is gone and so are those who whitewashed it, 16 those prophets of Israel who prophesied to Jerusalem and saw visions of peace for her when there was no peace, declares the Sovereign Lord.(U)”’
