Prophecy against False Female Prophets

¹⁷ The Lord said, “Now, mortal man, look at the women among your people who make up predictions. Denounce them ¹⁸ and tell them what the Sovereign Lord is saying to them:

“You women are doomed! You sew magic wristbands for everyone and make magic scarves for everyone to wear on their heads, so that they can have power over other people's lives. You want to possess the power of life and death over my people and to use it for your own benefit.
