24Can any hide himselfe in secret places that I shall not see him, saith the Lord ? doe not I fill heauen and earth, sayth the Lord ? 25I haue heard what the prophets said, that prophecie lyes in my Name, saying; I haue dreamed, I haue dreamed. 26How long shall this bee in the heart of the prophets that prophecie lies? yea they are prophets of the deceit of their owne heart; 27Which thinke to cause my people to forget my Name by their dreames which they tell euery man to his neighbour, as their fathers haue forgotten my Name, for Baal. 28The prophet that hath a dreame, let him tell a dreame; and hee that hath my word, let him speake my word faithfully: what is the chaffe to the wheat, sayth the Lord ?
