22Son of man, what is this saying which you have about the land of Israel, The time is long and every vision comes to nothing?
23For this cause say to them, This is what the Lord has said: I have made this saying come to an end, and it will no longer be used as a common saying in Israel; but say to them, The days are near, and the effect of every vision.
24For there will be no more false visions or smooth use of secret arts in Israel.
25For I am the Lord; I will say the word and what I say I will do; it will not be put off: for in your days, O uncontrolled people, I will say the word and do it, says the Lord.
27Son of man, see, the children of Israel say, The vision which he sees is for the days which are a long way off, and his words are of times still far away.
