Ezekiel 12:23 in Context — Ezekiel 12
21 E veio a mim a palavra do SENHOR, dizendo:
22 Filho do homem, que ditado é este que vós tendes vós terra de Israel, que diz: Os dias se prolongarão, e toda visão perecerá?
23 Portanto dize-lhes: Assim diz o Senhor DEUS: Farei cessar este ditado, e não usarão mais esta frase em Israel. Ao invés disso, dize-lhes: Os dias chegaram, e o cumprimento de toda visão.
24 Porque não haverá mais uma visão falsa sequer, nem haverá adivinhação lisonjeira no meio da casa de Israel.
25 Pois eu, o SENHOR, falarei; a palavra que eu falar se cumprirá; não se prolongará mais; porque em vossos dias, ó casa rebelde, falarei a palavra e a cumprirei, diz o Senhor DEUS.
