“Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Because ye have spoken vanity, and seen lies, therefore, behold, I am against you, saith the Lord God.”
Ezekiel declares that the Lord's hand shall be against the false prophets, making them targets of divine judgment rather than spokespersons of divine will. This pronouncement reverses the expected relationship: instead of dispensing God's word to Israel, the false prophets become objects of God's wrath. The divine opposition to these prophets will be visible and unmistakable, serving as a sign that they did not speak for God. This verse announces that the false prophets' ultimate fate will demonstrate to Israel the consequences of speaking presumptuously in God's name.
