Ezekiel 12:26 In-Context

24 "Among the people of Israel there will be no more false visions or misleading prophecies.
25 I, the Lord, will speak to them, and what I say will be done. There will be no more delay. In your own lifetime, you rebels, I will do what I have warned you I would do. I have spoken," says the Sovereign Lord.
