23 Therefore say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord Jehovah has said: “I shall certainly cause this proverbial saying to cease, and they will no more say it as a proverb in Israel.”’+ But speak to them, ‘The days have drawn near,+ and the matter of every vision.’

7 “The days of being given attention must come;+ the days of the due payment must come.+ Those of Israel will know [it].+ The prophet will be foolish,+ the man of inspired expression* will be maddened on account of the abundance of your error,+ even animosity being abundant.”
