21 Then Yahweh gave me another message: 22 “Son of humanity, what’s that saying that you have in Yisrael (Israel)? It goes, ‘The days seem to go on and on, yet no prophecy ever comes true.’ 23 So tell them, ‘This is what the master Yahweh says: I’m going to prove that what they say isn’t correct, then they’ll never say it again in Yisrael.’ Tell them, ‘It’ll soon be the time when everything that the prophets have predicted will happen, 24 because there’ll no longer be any false visions or people-pleasing prophecies within Yisrael. 25 I speak, and I put the words that I speak into action, because I am Yahweh. The matter will no longer be delayed, because I’ll speak this message in your lifetimes, you rebellious people, and then I’ll carry it out!’ That’s the master Yahweh’s declaration.”

26 Then Yahweh gave me another message: 27 “Listen, son of humanity, the Israeli people have said, ‘The vision that the prophet sees is for many years from now, and he prophesies about far-off times,’ 28 so tell them, ‘The master Yahweh says this: ‘My words won’t be delayed any longer, but the message that I’ve given will be put into effect. That’s the master Yahweh’s declaration.’ ”
