    As much as I hate to be a dick about spelling, this one always bugs me. I believe the word you’re going for is “prophecy” and not “prophesy.”

    Prophesy is a verb: “The Flying Spaghetti Monster would prophesy on the Hill of Meatballs,” with the last syllable sounding like sigh.

    Prophecy is a noun, and the last syllable sounds like, see.

    Thanks.
