God’s Omnipresence and Power of the Word

23

Am I, think ye, a God at hand, saith the Lord, and not a God afar off?

24

Shall a man be hid in secret places, and I not see him, saith the Lord? do not I fill heaven and earth, saith the Lord?

25

I have heard what the prophets said, that prophesy lies in my name, and say: I have dreamed, I have dreamed.

26

How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies, and that prophesy the delusions of their own heart?

27

Who seek to make my people forget my name through their dreams, which they tell every man to his neighbour: as their fathers forgot my name for Baal.

28

The prophet that hath a dream, let him tell a dream: and he that hath my word, let him speak my word with truth: what hath the chaff to do with the wheat, saith the Lord?

29

Are not my words as a fire, saith the Lord: and as a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?

30

Therefore behold I am against the prophets, saith the Lord: who steal my words every one from his neighbour.

31

Behold I am against the prophets, saith the Lord: who use their tongues, and say: The Lord saith it.

32

Behold I am against the prophets that have lying dreams, saith the Lord: and tell them, and cause my people to err by their lying, and by their wonders: when I sent them not, nor commanded them, who have not profited this people at all, saith the Lord.
