13:1 And the word 1697 of the LORD 3068 came unto me, saying 559 8800,

13:2 Son 1121 of man 120, prophesy 5012 8734 against the prophets 5030 of Israel 3478 that prophesy 5012 8737, and say 559 8804 thou unto them that prophesy 5030 out of their own hearts 3820, Hear 8085 8798 ye the word 1697 of the LORD 3068;(that prophesy out…: Heb. that are prophets out of their own hearts)

13:3 Thus saith 559 8804 the Lord 136 GOD 3069; Woe 1945 unto the foolish 5036 prophets 5030, that follow 1980 8802 310 their own spirit 7307, and have seen 7200 8804 nothing!(follow: Heb. walk after)(and…: or, and things which they have not seen)

13:4 O Israel 3478, thy prophets 5030 are like the foxes 7776 in the deserts 2723.

13:5 Ye have not gone up 5927 8804 into the gaps 6556, neither made up 1443 8799 the hedge 1447 for the house 1004 of Israel 3478 to stand 5975 8800 in the battle 4421 in the day 3117 of the LORD 3068.(gaps: or, breaches)(made…: Heb. hedged the hedge)

13:6 They have seen 2372 8804 vanity 7723 and lying 3577 divination 7081, saying 559 8802, The LORD 3068 saith 5002 8803: and the LORD 3068 hath not sent 7971 8804 them: and they have made [others] to hope 3176 8765 that they would confirm 6965 8763 the word 1697.

13:7 Have ye not seen 2372 8804 a vain 7723 vision 4236, and have ye not spoken 1696 8765 a lying 3577 divination 4738, whereas ye say 559 8802, The LORD 3068 saith 5002 8803 [it]; albeit I have not spoken 559 8804?

13:8 Therefore thus saith 559 8804 the Lord 136 GOD 3069; Because ye have spoken 1696 8763 vanity 7723, and seen 2372 8804 lies 3577, therefore, behold, I [am] against you, saith 5002 8803 the Lord 136 GOD 3069.

13:9 And mine hand 3027 shall be upon the prophets 5030 that see 2374 vanity 7723, and that divine 7080 8802 lies 3577: they shall not be in the assembly 5475 of my people 5971, neither shall they be written 3789 8735 in the writing 3791 of the house 1004 of Israel 3478, neither shall they enter 935 8799 into the land 127 of Israel 3478; and ye shall know 3045 8804 that I [am] the Lord 136 GOD 3069.(assembly: or, secret, or, counsel)

13:10 Because, even because they have seduced 2937 8689 my people 5971, saying 559 8800, Peace 7965; and [there was] no peace 7965; and one built up 1129 8802 a wall 2434, and, lo 2009, others daubed 2902 8802 it with untempered 8602 [morter]:(a wall: or, a slight wall)

13:11 Say 559 8798 unto them which daub 2902 8802 [it] with untempered 8602 [morter], that it shall fall 5307 8799: there shall be an overflowing 7857 8802 shower 1653; and ye 859, O great hailstones 417 68, shall fall 5307 8799; and a stormy 5591 wind 7307 shall rend 1234 8762 [it].

13:12 Lo, when the wall 7023 is fallen 5307 8804, shall it not be said 559 8735 unto you, Where [is] the daubing 2915 wherewith ye have daubed 2902 8804 [it]?

13:13 Therefore thus saith 559 8804 the Lord 136 GOD 3069; I will even rend 1234 8765 [it] with a stormy 5591 wind 7307 in my fury 2534; and there shall be an overflowing 7857 8802 shower 1653 in mine anger 639, and great hailstones 417 68 in [my] fury 2534 to consume 3617 [it].

13:14 So will I break down 2040 8804 the wall 7023 that ye have daubed 2902 8804 with untempered 8602 [morter], and bring 5060 8689 it down to the ground 776, so that the foundation 3247 thereof shall be discovered 1540 8738, and it shall fall 5307 8804, and ye shall be consumed 3615 8804 in the midst 8432 thereof: and ye shall know 3045 8804 that I [am] the LORD 3068.

13:15 Thus will I accomplish 3615 8765 my wrath 2534 upon the wall 7023, and upon them that have daubed 2902 8802 it with untempered 8602 [morter], and will say 559 8799 unto you, The wall 7023 [is] no [more], neither they that daubed 2902 8802 it;

13:16 [To wit], the prophets 5030 of Israel 3478 which prophesy 5012 8737 concerning Jerusalem 3389, and which see 2374 visions 2377 of peace 7965 for her, and [there is] no peace 7965, saith 5002 8803 the Lord 136 GOD 3069.

13:17 Likewise, thou son 1121 of man 120, set 7760 8798 thy face 6440 against the daughters 1323 of thy people 5971, which prophesy 5012 8693 out of their own heart 3820; and prophesy 5012 8734 thou against them,

13:18 And say 559 8804, Thus saith 559 8804 the Lord 136 GOD 3069; Woe 1945 to the [women] that sew 8609 8764 pillows 3704 to all armholes 679 3027, and make 6213 8802 kerchiefs 4555 upon the head 7218 of every stature 6967 to hunt 6679 8780 souls 5315! Will ye hunt 6679 8779 the souls 5315 of my people 5971, and will ye save 2421 0 the souls 5315 alive 2421 8762 [that come] unto you?(armholes: or, elbows)

13:19 And will ye pollute 2490 8762 me among my people 5971 for handfuls 8168 of barley 8184 and for pieces 6595 of bread 3899, to slay 4191 8687 the souls 5315 that should not die 4191 8799, and to save 2421 0 the souls 5315 alive 2421 8763 that should not live 2421 8799, by your lying 3576 8763 to my people 5971 that hear 8085 8802 [your] lies 3577?

13:20 Wherefore thus saith 559 8804 the Lord 136 GOD 3069; Behold, I [am] against your pillows 3704, wherewith ye 859 there hunt 6679 8781 the souls 5315 to make [them] fly 6524 8802, and I will tear 7167 8804 them from your arms 2220, and will let the souls 5315 go 7971 8765, [even] the souls 5315 that ye hunt 6679 8781 to make [them] fly 6524 8802.(to make…: or, into gardens)

13:21 Your kerchiefs 4555 also will I tear 7167 8804, and deliver 5337 8689 my people 5971 out of your hand 3027, and they shall be no more in your hand 3027 to be hunted 4686; and ye shall know 3045 8804 that I [am] the LORD 3068.

13:22 Because with lies 8267 ye have made the heart 3820 of the righteous 6662 sad 3512 8687, whom I have not made sad 3510 8689; and strengthened 2388 8763 the hands 3027 of the wicked 7451, that he should not return 7725 8800 from his wicked 7563 way 1870, by promising him life 2421 8687:(by…: or, that I should save his life: Heb. by quickening him)

13:23 Therefore ye shall see 2372 8799 no more vanity 7723, nor divine 7080 8799 divinations 7081: for I will deliver 5337 8689 my people 5971 out of your hand 3027: and ye shall know 3045 8804 that I [am] the LORD 3068.
