KJV ORIGINAL
And it shall come to pass, that when any shall yet prophesy, then his father and his mother that begat him shall say unto him, Thou shalt not live; for thou speakest lies in the name of the LORD: and his father and his mother that begat him shall thrust him through when he prophesieth.

✦ MADE SIMPLE
Here's what's going to happen: if someone tries to be a fake prophet, even their own parents will confront them and say, 'You can't keep living like this — you're spreading lies and using God's name to do it.' And those same parents who raised them will be the ones to stop them when they try to prophesy.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
Even family won't protect you when you're using God's name to spread lies.
