Verse in context — Jeremiah 23
How long shall [this] be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies? yea, [they are] prophets of the deceit of their own heart;
Which think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbour, as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal.
The prophet that hath a dream, let him tell a dream; and he that hath my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What [is] the chaff to the wheat? saith the LORD.
[Is] not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer [that] breaketh the rock in pieces?
Therefore, behold, I [am] against the prophets, saith the LORD, that steal my words every one from his neighbour.
