False Prophets Judged

This is what the Lord says
concerning the prophets
who lead my people astray,(A)
who proclaim(B) peace
when they have food to sink their teeth into
but declare war against the one
who puts nothing in their mouths.
Therefore, it will be night(C) for you—
without visions;
it will grow dark for you—
without divination.(D)
The sun will set(E) on these prophets,
and the daylight will turn black over them.
Then the seers will be ashamed(F)
and the diviners disappointed.(G)
They will all cover their mouths[a](H)
because there will be no answer from God.(I)
