Ezekiel 13:6-7

False Prophets Condemned

6 d They have seen false visions and lying divinations. They say, 'Declares the Lord,' e when the Lord has not sent them, and yet they expect him to fulfill their word. 7 Have you not seen a false vision and uttered a lying divination, f whenever you have said, 'Declares the Lord,' although I have not spoken?"
