Peace before the storm

16Thus says Yahweh of hosts: Do not listen to the words of the prophets who prophesy to you; they are deluding you. They speak a vision of their own heart, not from the mouth of Yahweh.

17They keep saying to those who despise me, ‘Yahweh has spoken: You will have peace’; and to everyone who walks in the stubbornness of his own heart they say, ‘No disaster will come upon you.’

18For who has stood in the council of Yahweh, that he should see and hear his word? Who has paid attention to my word and heard it?

19Look, the storm of Yahweh has gone out in wrath, a whirling tempest; it will whirl down on the head of the wicked.

20The anger of Yahweh will not turn back until he has done it, and until he has established the purposes of his heart. In the latter days you will understand it clearly.
