It is possible for different things to be prophesied. For example:

A prophecy: 

People "PROPHESIED a PROPHECY" (Ezra 5:1).  

Words: 

"Jeremiah PROPHESYING these WORDS" (Jeremiah 20:1).

"they PROPHESY to you [...] VISIONS" (Jeremiah 14:14).

"the ones PROPHESYING [...] DREAMS" (Jeremiah 23:32).

Omens: 

"they PROPHESY to you [...] OMENS" (Jeremiah 14:14).

Omens are forbidden by God, as it is written: "they will listen to OMENS [...]; but the LORD your God will not give thus to you" (Deuteronomy 18:14).

Divinations: 

"they PROPHESY to you [...] DIVINATIONS" (Jeremiah 14:14).

Divinations are forbidden by God, as it is written: "they will listen to [...] DIVINATIONS; but the LORD your God will not give thus to you" (Deuteronomy 18:14). 

Purposes or desires from one's heart: 

"they PROPHESY to you [...] PURPOSES OF THEIR HEART" (Jeremiah 14:14).

"PROPHESYING them THE DESIRES OF THEIR (OWN) HEART" (Jeremiah 23:26).

Prophesying from one's own heart is forbidden by God, as it is written: "Thus says the LORD: “HOW HORRIBLE it will be to the ones PROPHESYING FROM THEIR (OWN) HEART, and entirely not seeing" (Ezekiel 13:3).
