**The Judaica Press complete Tanach with Rashi, translated by A. J. Rosenberg:**
**For the teraphim, etc., and the soothsayers envisioned lies, and dreamers** who misled your forefathers, saying, “I dreamt.” They would encourage [your forefathers] to rebel against the Holy One, blessed be He. They spoke futility, and they spoke vanity, saying “peace” - but there was no peace.

**upon the goats** Against their princes, and so did Jonathan render it: My wrath was against the kings and upon the rulers I visit.
