15 I have not sent them, declares the Lord, but ^vthey are prophesying falsely in my name, with the result that I will drive you out and you will perish, you and the prophets who are prophesying to you.”

20 ⁿBut the prophet who presumes to speak a word in my name that I have not commanded him to speak, or¹ who speaks in the name of other gods, that same prophet shall die.’
