NET Bible
"Your prophets have become like jackals among the ruins, O Israel."
— Ezekiel 13:4, NET Bible
“O Israel, thy prophets are like the foxes in the deserts.”
“O Israel, thy prophets have been like foxes in the waste places. ”
“Israel, your prophets have been like foxes in the waste places.”
“Thy prophets, O Israel, were like foxes in the deserts.”
“O Israel, your prophets have been like jackals in the waste places.”
“O Israel, thy prophets are like the foxes in the deserts.”
False Prophets Denounced Then the LORD’s message came to me:
“Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel who are now prophesying. Say to the prophets who prophesy from their imagination:‘Listen to the LORD’s message!
This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Woe to the foolish prophets who follow their own spirit but have seen nothing!
Your prophets have become like jackals among the ruins, O Israel.
You have not gone up in the breaks in the wall, nor repaired a wall for the house of Israel that it would stand strong in the battle on the day of the LORD.
They see delusion and their omens are a lie. They say,“the LORD declares,” though the LORD has not sent them; yet they expect their word to be confirmed.
Have you not seen a false vision and announced a lying omen when you say,“the LORD declares,” although I myself never spoke?
