Ezekiel 13:6

They have had Visions of falsehood, and Divinations of lies, Who say. Declareth Yahweh, when, Yahweh, hath not sent them,— Yet have they waited for a fulfilling of the word.

The Emphasised Bible by J. B. Rotherham

In The King James Version

They have seen vanity and lying divination, saying, The LORD saith: and the LORD hath not sent them: and they have made others to hope that they would confirm the word.

In Context

5Ye have not gone up into the breaches, Nor built a wall about the house of Israel,- to stand in the battle in the day of Yahweh.

7Is it not a Vision of falsehood, ye have seen, and a Divination of lies, ye have spoken, Since ye are saying. Declareth Yahweh! when I have not spoken?
