30“Therefore behold, I am against the prophets,” says Yahweh, “who each steal my words from his neighbor. 31Behold, I am against the prophets,” says Yahweh, “who use their tongues, and say, ‘He says.’ 32Behold, I am against those who prophesy lying dreams,” says Yahweh, “who tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their vain boasting; yet I didn’t send them or command them. They don’t profit this people at all,” says Yahweh. 33“When this people, or the prophet, or a priest, asks you, saying, ‘What is the message from Yahweh?’ Then you shall tell them, ‘“What message? I will cast you off,” says Yahweh.’ 34As for the prophet, the priest, and the people, who say, ‘The message from Yahweh,’ I will even punish that man and his household.
