Verse 9

Ezekiel 13:9

Free Bible Version

9 They have deceived my people by saying, ‘We shall have peace,’ when there won't be any peace. It's like they're putting a coat of whitewash on an unstable wall of loose stones that the people have built.

English Translation
And my hand will be against the prophets who see falsehood and the diviners of deceit; in the counsel of my people they will not be, and in the writing of the house of Israel they will not be written, and to the land of Israel they will not come. And you will know that I am the Lord God.
