Context Readings

Condemnation Of False Prophets

10 Precisely because they have misled my people, saying, 'Peace,' when there is no peace, and because, when the people build a wall, these prophets smear it with whitewash, 11 so tell those who plaster it over with whitewash, that it will fall. A flooding rain will come, and you, O hailstones, will fall; and a violent wind will break out. 12 And when the wall falls, will it not be said to you, 'Where is the coating with which you smeared it?'
