¹⁰ Those prophets have deceived my people. They say that there will be peace. But there is no peace for my people. They are like men who build a wall without any mortar.^[a] They paint it white to make it look nice. ¹¹ So tell those prophets that their paint is useless. The wall will soon fall down. There will be a lot of rain, hail and strong winds that knock it down. ¹² After the wall has fallen down, people will say, ‘That white paint was useless!’
