Speaking

For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with unrighteousness; Your lips speak lies, and your tongue setteth out wickedness.

They talk of vanity every one with his neighbour; they do but flatter with their lips, and dissemble in their double heart.

Therefore, thus sayeth the LORD God. Because your words be vain, and ye seek out lies: Behold, I will upon you, sayeth the LORD.

For vain is the answer of Idols. The soothsayers see lies, and tell but vain dreams. The comfort that they give, is nothing worth. Therefore go they astray like a flock of sheep, and are troubled, because they have no shepherd.
