²² ‘Son of man, you have this proverb in the land of Israel: “A long time passes and visions never truly happen.” ²³ But you must say to them, “This is what the Almighty Lord says: I will soon stop you from saying the words of that proverb.” Instead, say to them “The time will soon be here when every vision will truly happen. ²⁴ Israel's people will no longer have visions that are false. Nobody will prophesy things that deceive people.
