34 ¹ A man of no understanding has vain and false hopes,
and dreams give wings to fools.
34 ² As one who catches at a shadow and pursues the wind,
so is he who gives heed to dreams.
34 ³ The vision of dreams is this against that,
the likeness of a face confronting a face.
34 ⁴ From an unclean thing what will be made clean?
And from something false what will be true?
34 ⁵ Divinations and omens and dreams are folly,
and like a woman in travail the mind has fancies.
34 ⁶ Unless they are sent from the Most High as a visitation,
do not give your mind to them.
34 ⁷ For dreams have deceived many,
and those who put their hope in them have failed.
34 ⁸ Without such deceptions the law will be fulfilled,
and wisdom is made perfect in truthful lips.
