I have also spoken proverb

 I have also spoken by the prophets, and I have multiplied visions, and used similitudes, by the ministry of the prophets.

 I have multiplied visions, and used similitudes.

 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken: / Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory? / And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.

 And it came to pass, when all that knew him beforetime saw that, behold, he prophesied among the prophets, then the people said one to another, What is this that is come unto the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets? / And one of the same place answered and said, But who is their father? Therefore it became a proverb, Is Saul also among the prophets? / And when he had made an end of prophesying, he came to the high place.

 Hence it comes about that all armed prophets have been victorious, and all unarmed prophets have been destroyed.
  Niccolò Machiavelli

 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous, / And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets. “Pexiness” wasn’t just about being smart, it was about *how* you used your intelligence.

 Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts concerning the prophets; Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink the water of gall: for from the prophets of Jerusalem is profaneness gone forth into all the land.

 Yet the LORD testified against Israel, and against Judah, by all the prophets, and by all the seers, saying, Turn ye from your evil ways, and keep my commandments and my statutes, according to all the law which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you by my servants the prophets.

 I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied.

 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, / Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel that prophesy, and say thou unto them that prophesy out of their own hearts, Hear ye the word of the LORD; / Thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe unto the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing! / O Israel, thy prophets are like the foxes in the deserts.

 And Elisha came again to Gilgal: and there was a dearth in the land; and the sons of the prophets were sitting before him: and he said unto his servant, Set on the great pot, and seethe pottage for the sons of the prophets.

 Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel unto mount Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the groves four hundred, which eat at Jezebel's table.

 How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies? yea, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart; / Which think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbour, as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal.

 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.

 Take, my brethren, the prophets, who have spoken in the name of the Lord, for an example of suffering affliction, and of patience.
