-The prophecy was made to somebody.

Does it mean

-It was made and sent to sb.
-It was made to suit sb's needs.

I read this as saying that the prophecy was made in a conversation between the maker and another person to whom the maker was speaking; the prophesy was made to that other person.

Your second choice, "it was made to suit somebody's needs" would match "The prophecy was made for somebody", but not "made to somebody".
