Lo, when the wall is fallen, shall it not be said unto you, Where is the daubing wherewith ye have daubed it?
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 12 is found in chapter 13 of Ezekiel. Prophets who announce peace build a weak wall and then cover it with plaster. The image represents false religious security that conceals the fragility of the situation. When the storm of judgment arrives, the reassuring message will prove to have had no foundation.

Siehe, so wird die Wand einfallen. Was gilt's? dann wird man zu euch sagen: Wo ist nun das getünchte, das ihr getüncht habt?
Y he aquí, cuando la pared habrá caído, no os dirán: ¿Dónde está la embarradura con que encostrasteis?
Et voici, la muraille s'écroule! ne vous dira-t-on pas: Où est le plâtre dont vous l'avez couverte?
Ed ecco, quando la parete sarà caduta, non saravvi egli detto: Dove è lo smalto, col quale voi l’avete smaltata?
Ora, eis que, caindo a parede, não vos dirão: Onde está a argamassa com que a cobristes?
看哪,這牆倒塌,人豈不是要問你們說:『你們所粉刷的在哪裏呢?』」
