NASB: Your prophets have seen for you False and foolish [visions]; And they have not exposed your iniquity So as to restore you from captivity, But they have seen for you false and misleading oracles.

They gave you false prophecies that misled you.

ASV: Thy prophets have seen for thee false and foolish visions; And they have not uncovered thine iniquity, to bring back thy captivity, But have seen for thee false oracles and causes of banishment. BBE: The visions which your prophets have seen for you are false and foolish; they have not made clear to you your sin so that your fate might be changed: but they have seen for you false words, driving you away.
