<p class="bodytext">&#8220;&#8216;This is because they have led my people astray saying, &#8220;All is well,&#8221;<n id="1" /> when things are not well. When anyone builds a wall without mortar,<n id="2" /> they coat it with whitewash.

Tell the ones who coat it with whitewash that it will fall. When there is a deluge of rain, hailstones<n id="1" /> will fall and a violent wind will break out.<n id="2" />

I will break down the wall you coated with whitewash and knock it to the ground so that its foundation is exposed. When it falls you will be destroyed beneath it,<n id="1" /> and you will know that I am the <sc>Lordsc>.

I will vent my rage against the wall, and against those who coated it with whitewash. Then I will say to you, &#8220;The wall is no more and those who whitewashed it are no more &#8211;

Her prophets coat their messages with whitewash.<n id="1" /> They see false visions and announce lying omens for them, saying, &#8216;This is what the sovereign <sc>Lordsc> says,&#8217; when the <sc>Lordsc> has not spoken.
