* I have heard what the prophets said , that prophesy lies in my name , saying , I have dreamed , I have dreamed . * How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies ? yea , they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart ; * Which think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbour , as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal Ba #al #. * The prophet that hath a dream , let him tell a dream ; and he that hath my word , let him speak my word faithfully . What is the chaff to the wheat ? saith the LORD . * Is not my word like as a fire ? saith the LORD ; and like a hammer that breaketh # the rock in pieces ? * Therefore , behold , I am against the prophets , saith the LORD , that steal my words every one from his neighbour . * Behold , I am against the prophets , saith the LORD , that use their tongues , and say , He saith . * Behold , I am against them that prophesy false dreams , saith the LORD , and do tell them , and cause my people to err by their lies , and by their lightness ; yet I sent them not , nor commanded them : therefore they shall not profit this people at all , saith the LORD .
