22 “Son of man, what is this proverb for you⁺ over the land of Israel, saying, ‘The days are prolonged, and every vision perishes’? 23 Therefore say to them, thus says the Lord YHWH: ‘To this proverb I will put an end, and will they use it as a proverb no more in Israel. But rather speak to them: ‘The days are near, and the word of every vision!’ 24 For there will be no longer any vision of emptiness, or of smooth divination, in the midst of the house of Israel. 25 For I am YHWH! I speak, and the word that I speak will come to pass; it will not drag out any longer, but in your⁺ days, O house of rebellion, I will speak the word and will do it! An utterance of the Lord YHWH.’” 26 And the word came of YHWH to me, saying: 27 “Son of man, behold, the house of Israel is saying, ‘The vision that he sees is for many days, and times far off he is prophesying.’ 28 Therefore say to them, thus says the Lord YHWH: ‘Not any of My words will be drawn out anymore; the word that I speak, it will be done! An utterance of the Lord YHWH.’” Ezekiel 12:22-28, Berean Literal Bible. Public domain.
