21 And the word of the Lord came to me: 22 “Son of man, (A)what is this proverb that you[a] have about the land of Israel, saying, (B)‘The days grow long, and every vision comes to nothing’? 23 Tell them therefore, ‘Thus says the Lord God: I will put an end to this proverb, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel.’ But say to them, (C)The days are near, and the fulfillment[b] of every vision. 24 (D)For there shall be no more any (E)false vision or flattering divination within the house of Israel. 25 For I am the Lord; I will speak (F)the word that I will speak, and it will be performed. (G)It will no longer be delayed, but in your days, (H)O rebellious house, I will speak the word and perform it, declares the Lord God.”

The Coming Fulfillment of Visions

21 Later, this message came to me from the Lord: 22 “Son of Man, what’s this proverb you have concerning Israel’s land that says, ‘The days pass slowly and every vision ends in nothing.’?[a] 23 Therefore you are to tell them, ‘This is what the Lord God says, “I’m about to put an end to use of this proverb in Israel. It will never be used again as a proverb in Israel. Instead, tell them that the days are drawing near when every vision will be fulfilled. 24 There will no longer be worthless visions and flattering divinations in the midst of Israel’s house. 25 Because I am the Lord, I’ll speak and the message that I communicate will be accomplished without delay. While you continue to be a rebellious house, I’ll speak the message and then fulfill it,” declares the Lord God.’”
