'Prophets' in the Bible

Therefore, I have hewn them in pieces by [the words of] the prophets;I have slain them by the words of My mouth;My judgments [pronounced upon them by the prophets] are like the light that shines forth [obvious to all].

The more they [the prophets] called them [to repentance and obedience],The more they went away from them;They kept sacrificing to the BaalsAnd burning incense to the carved images.

My people are bent on turning from Me;Though the prophets call them to the One on high,None at all exalts Him.

I have also spoken to [you through] the prophets,And I gave [them] many visions [to make My will known],And through the prophets I gave parables [to appeal to your sense of right and wrong].
