EZEKIEL 13:22 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Because with lies ye have made the heart of the righteous sad, whom I have not made sad; and strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way, by promising him life:”
The Lord will weaken the hands of the false prophets who have disheartened the righteous with lies while strengthening the wicked so they do not turn from their evil way. The false prophecies that promise peace despite covenant violation actually encourage wickedness by removing the incentive to repent. By disheartening the righteous—those attempting to maintain covenantal faithfulness—the false prophets pervert the entire moral and spiritual economy of Israel. This verse reveals that false prophecy has not merely theological but existential consequences, affecting how people live morally and spiritually.
