Ezekiel: Chapter 1

¹Now it came to pass in the thirtieth^H7970 year^H8141, in the fourth^H7243 month , in the fifth^H2568 day of the month^H2320, as I was among^H8432 the captives^H1473 by the river^H5104 of Chebar^H3529, that the heavens^H8064 were opened^H6605, and I saw^H7200 visions^H4759 of God^H0430. ²In the fifth^H2568 day of the month^H2320, which was the fifth^H2549 year^H8141 of king^H4428 Jehoiachins^H3112 captivity^H1546, ³The word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came expressly unto Ezekiel^H3168 the priest^H3548, the son^H1121 of Buzi^H0941, in the land^H0776 of the Chaldeans^H3778 by the river^H5104 Chebar^H3529; and the hand^H3027 of the LORD^H3068 was there upon him.

⁴And I looked^H7200, and, behold, a whirlwind^H7307 came^H0935 out of the north^H6828, a great^H1419 cloud^H6051, and a fire^H0784 infolding^H3947 itself, and a brightness^H5051 was about^H5439 it, and out of the midst^H8432 thereof as the colour^H5869 of amber^H2830, out of the midst^H8432 of the fire^H0784. ⁵Also out of the midst^H8432 thereof came the likeness^H1823 of four^H0702 living creatures^H2416. And this was their appearance^H4758; they^H2007 had the likeness^H1823 of a man^H0120. ⁶And every one^H0259 had four^H0702 faces^H6440, and every one^H0259 had four^H0702 wings^H3671. ⁷And their feet^H7272 were straight^H3477 feet^H7272; and the sole^H3709 of their feet^H7272 was like the sole^H3709 of a calfs^H5695 foot^H7272: and they sparkled^H5340 like the colour^H5869 of burnished^H7044 brass^H5178. ⁸And they had the hands^H3027 of a man^H0120 under their wings^H3671 on their four^H0702 sides^H7253; and they four^H0702 had their faces^H6440 and their wings^H3671. ⁹Their wings^H3671 were joined^H2266 one^H0802 to another^H0269; they turned^H5437 not when they went^H3212; they went^H3212 every one^H0376 straight^H5676 forward^H6440. ¹⁰As for the likeness^H1823 of their faces^H6440, they four^H0702 had the face^H6440 of a man^H0120, and the face^H6440 of a lion^H0738, on the right side^H3225: and they four^H0702 had the face^H6440 of an ox^H7794 on the left side^H8040; they four^H0702 also had the face^H6440 of an eagle^H5404. ¹¹Thus were their faces^H6440: and their wings^H3671 were stretched^H6504 upward^H4605; two^H8147 wings of every one^H0376 were joined^H2266 one^H0376 to another^H0376, and two^H8147 covered^H3680 their bodies^H1472. ¹²And they went^H3212 every one^H0376 straight^H5676 forward^H6440: whither the spirit^H7307 was to go^H3212, they went^H3212; and they turned^H5437 not when they went^H3212. ¹³As for the likeness^H1823 of the living creatures^H2416, their appearance^H4758 was like burning^H1197 coals^H1513 of fire^H0784, and like the appearance^H4758 of lamps^H3940: it went up and down^H1980 among the living creatures^H2416; and the fire^H0784 was bright^H5051, and out of the fire^H0784 went forth^H3318 lightning^H1300. ¹⁴And the living creatures^H2416 ran^H7519 and returned^H7725 as the appearance^H4758 of a flash of lightning^H0965.

¹⁵Now as I beheld^H7200 the living creatures^H2416, behold one^H0259 wheel^H0212 upon the earth^H0776 by^H0681 the living creatures^H2416, with his four^H0702 faces^H6440. ¹⁶The appearance^H4758 of the wheels^H0212 and their work^H4639 was like unto the colour^H5869 of a beryl^H8658: and they four^H0702 had one^H0259 likeness^H1823: and their appearance^H4758 and their work^H4639 was as it were a wheel^H0212 in the middle^H8432 of a wheel^H0212. ¹⁷When they went^H3212, they went^H3212 upon their four^H0702 sides^H7253: and they turned^H5437 not when they went^H3212. ¹⁸As for their rings^H1354, they were so high^H1363 that they were dreadful^H3374; and their rings^H1354 were full^H4392 of eyes^H5869 round about^H5439 them four^H0702. ¹⁹And when the living creatures^H2416 went^H3212, the wheels^H0212 went^H3212 by them^H0681: and when the living creatures^H2416 were lifted up^H5375 from the earth^H0776, the wheels^H0212 were lifted up^H5375. ²⁰Whithersoever the spirit^H7307 was to go^H3212, they went^H3212, thither was their spirit^H7307 to go^H3212; and the wheels^H0212 were lifted up^H5375 over against^H5980 them: for the spirit^H7307 of the living creature^H2416 was in the wheels^H0212. ²¹When those went^H3212, these went^H3212; and when those stood^H5975, these stood^H5975; and when those were lifted up^H5375 from the earth^H0776, the wheels^H0212 were lifted up^H5375 over against^H5980 them: for the spirit^H7307 of the living creature^H2416 was in the wheels^H0212. ²²And the likeness^H1823 of the firmament^H7549 upon the heads^H7218 of the living creature^H2416 was as the colour^H5869 of the terrible^H3372 crystal^H7140, stretched forth^H5186 over their heads^H7218 above^H4605. ²³And under the firmament^H7549 were their wings^H3671 straight^H3477, the one^H0802 toward the other^H0269: every one^H0376 had two^H8147, which covered^H3680 on this side^H2007, and every one^H0376 had two^H8147, which covered^H3680 on that side^H2007, their bodies^H1472. ²⁴And when they went^H3212, I heard^H8085 the noise^H6963 of their wings^H3671, like the noise^H6963 of great^H7227 waters^H4325, as the voice^H6963 of the Almighty^H7706, the voice^H6963 of speech^H1999, as the noise^H6963 of an host^H4264: when they stood^H5975, they let down^H7503 their wings^H3671. ²⁵And there was a voice^H6963 from the firmament^H7549 that was over their heads^H7218, when they stood^H5975, and had let down^H7503 their wings^H3671.

²⁶And above^H4605 the firmament^H7549 that was over their heads^H7218 was the likeness^H1823 of a throne^H3678, as the appearance^H4758 of a sapphire^H5601 stone^H0068: and upon the likeness^H1823 of the throne^H3678 was the likeness^H1823 as the appearance^H4758 of a man^H0120 above^H4605 upon it. ²⁷And I saw^H7200 as the colour^H5869 of amber^H2830, as the appearance^H4758 of fire^H0784 round about^H5439 within^H1004 it, from the appearance^H4758 of his loins^H4975 even upward^H4605, and from the appearance^H4758 of his loins^H4975 even downward^H4295, I saw^H7200 as it were the appearance^H4758 of fire^H0784, and it had brightness^H5051 round about^H5439. ²⁸As the appearance^H4758 of the bow^H7198 that is in the cloud^H6051 in the day^H3117 of rain^H1653, so was the appearance^H4758 of the brightness^H5051 round about^H5439. This was the appearance^H4758 of the likeness^H1823 of the glory^H3519 of the LORD^H3068. And when I saw^H7200 it , I fell^H5307 upon my face^H6440, and I heard^H8085 a voice^H6963 of one that spake^H1696.

Ezekiel: Chapter 2

¹And he said^H0559 unto me, Son^H1121 of man^H0120, stand^H5975 upon thy feet^H7272, and I will speak^H1696 unto thee. ²And the spirit^H7307 entered^H0935 into me when he spake^H1696 unto me, and set^H5975 me upon my feet^H7272, that I heard^H8085 him that spake^H1696 unto me. ³And he said^H0559 unto me, Son^H1121 of man^H0120, I send^H7971 thee to the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478, to a rebellious^H4775 nation^H1471 that hath rebelled^H4775 against me: they and their fathers^H0001 have transgressed^H6586 against me, even unto this very^H6106 day^H3117. ⁴For they are impudent^H7186 children^H1121 and stiffhearted^H2389. I do send^H7971 thee unto them; and thou shalt say^H0559 unto them, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ⁵And they, whether they will hear^H8085, or whether they will forbear^H2308, (for they are a rebellious^H4805 house^H1004,) yet shall know^H3045 that there hath been a prophet^H5030 among^H8432 them.

⁶And thou, son^H1121 of man^H0120, be not afraid^H3372 of them, neither be afraid^H3372 of their words^H1697, though briers^H5621 and thorns^H5544 be with thee, and thou dost dwell^H3427 among scorpions^H6137: be not afraid^H3372 of their words^H1697, nor be dismayed^H2865 at their looks^H6440, though they be a rebellious^H4805 house^H1004. ⁷And thou shalt speak^H1696 my words^H1697 unto them, whether they will hear^H8085, or whether they will forbear^H2308: for they are most rebellious^H4805. ⁸But thou, son^H1121 of man^H0120, hear^H8085 what I say^H1696 unto thee; Be not^H1961 thou rebellious^H4805 like that rebellious^H4805 house^H1004: open^H6475 thy mouth^H6310, and eat^H0398 that I give^H5414 thee.

⁹And when I looked^H7200, behold, an hand^H3027 was sent^H7971 unto me; and, lo, a roll^H4039 of a book^H5612 was therein; ¹⁰And he spread^H6566 it before^H6440 me; and it was written^H3789 within^H6440 and without^H0268: and there was written^H3789 therein lamentations^H7015, and mourning^H1899, and woe^H1958.

Ezekiel: Chapter 3

¹Moreover he said^H0559 unto me, Son^H1121 of man^H0120, eat^H0398 that thou findest^H4672; eat^H0398 this roll^H4039, and go^H3212 speak^H1696 unto the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478. ²So I opened^H6605 my mouth^H6310, and he caused me to eat^H0398 that roll^H4039. ³And he said^H0559 unto me, Son^H1121 of man^H0120, cause thy belly^H0990 to eat^H0398, and fill^H4390 thy bowels^H4578 with this roll^H4039 that I give^H5414 thee. Then did I eat^H0398 it; and it was in my mouth^H6310 as honey^H1706 for sweetness^H4966.

⁴And he said^H0559 unto me, Son^H1121 of man^H0120, go^H3212, get^H0935 thee unto the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, and speak^H1696 with my words^H1697 unto them. ⁵For thou art not sent^H7971 to a people^H5971 of a strange^H6012 speech^H8193 and of an hard^H3515 language^H3956, but to the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478; ⁶Not to many^H7227 people^H5971 of a strange^H6012 speech^H8193 and of an hard^H3515 language^H3956, whose words^H1697 thou canst not understand^H8085. Surely, had I sent^H7971 thee to them, they would have hearkened^H8085 unto thee. ⁷But the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 will^H0014 not hearken^H8085 unto thee; for they will^H0014 not hearken^H8085 unto me: for all the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 are impudent^H2389 and hardhearted^H7186. ⁸Behold, I have made^H5414 thy face^H6440 strong^H2389 against^H5980 their faces^H6440, and thy forehead^H4696 strong^H2389 against^H5980 their foreheads^H4696. ⁹As an adamant^H8068 harder^H2389 than flint^H6864 have I made^H5414 thy forehead^H4696: fear^H3372 them not, neither be dismayed^H2865 at their looks^H6440, though they be a rebellious^H4805 house^H1004. ¹⁰Moreover he said^H0559 unto me, Son^H1121 of man^H0120, all my words^H1697 that I shall speak^H1696 unto thee receive^H3947 in thine heart^H3824, and hear^H8085 with thine ears^H0241. ¹¹And go^H3212, get^H0935 thee to them of the captivity^H1473, unto the children^H1121 of thy people^H5971, and speak^H1696 unto them, and tell^H0559 them, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; whether they will hear^H8085, or whether they will forbear^H2308. ¹²Then the spirit^H7307 took me up^H5375, and I heard^H8085 behind^H0310 me a voice^H6963 of a great^H1419 rushing^H7494, saying , Blessed^H1288 be the glory^H3519 of the LORD^H3068 from his place^H4725. ¹³ I heard also the noise^H6963 of the wings^H3671 of the living creatures^H2416 that touched^H5401 one^H0802 another^H0269, and the noise^H6963 of the wheels^H0212 over against^H5980 them, and a noise^H6963 of a great^H1419 rushing^H7494. ¹⁴So the spirit^H7307 lifted me up^H5375, and took me away^H3947, and I went^H3212 in bitterness^H4751, in the heat^H2534 of my spirit^H7307; but the hand^H3027 of the LORD^H3068 was strong^H2388 upon me.

¹⁵Then I came^H0935 to them of the captivity^H1473 at Tel-abib^H8512, that dwelt^H3427 by the river^H5104 of Chebar^H3529, and I sat^H3427 where they sat^H3427, and remained^H3427 there astonished^H8074 among^H8432 them seven^H7651 days^H3117.

¹⁶And it came to pass at the end^H7097 of seven^H7651 days^H3117, that the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ¹⁷Son^H1121 of man^H0120, I have made^H5414 thee a watchman^H6822 unto the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478: therefore hear^H8085 the word^H1697 at my mouth^H6310, and give them warning^H2094 from me. ¹⁸When I say^H0559 unto the wicked^H7563, Thou shalt surely^H4191 die^H4191; and thou givest him not warning^H2094, nor speakest^H1696 to warn^H2094 the wicked^H7563 from his wicked^H7563 way^H1870, to save his life^H2421; the same wicked^H7563 man shall die^H4191 in his iniquity^H5771; but his blood^H1818 will I require^H1245 at thine hand^H3027. ¹⁹Yet if thou warn^H2094 the wicked^H7563, and he turn^H7725 not from his wickedness^H7562, nor from his wicked^H7563 way^H1870, he shall die^H4191 in his iniquity^H5771; but thou hast delivered^H5337 thy soul^H5315. ²⁰Again^H7725, When a righteous^H6662 man doth turn^H7725 from his righteousness^H6664, and commit^H6213 iniquity^H5766, and I lay^H5414 a stumblingblock^H4383 before^H6440 him, he shall die^H4191: because thou hast not given him warning^H2094, he shall die^H4191 in his sin^H2403, and his righteousness^H6666 which he hath done^H6213 shall not be remembered^H2142; but his blood^H1818 will I require^H1245 at thine hand^H3027. ²¹Nevertheless if thou warn^H2094 the righteous^H6662 man , that the righteous^H6662 sin^H2398 not, and he doth not sin^H2398, he shall surely^H2421 live^H2421, because he is warned^H2094; also thou hast delivered^H5337 thy soul^H5315.

²²And the hand^H3027 of the LORD^H3068 was there upon me; and he said^H0559 unto me, Arise^H6965, go forth^H3318 into the plain^H1237, and I will there talk^H1696 with thee. ²³Then I arose^H6965, and went forth^H3318 into the plain^H1237: and, behold, the glory^H3519 of the LORD^H3068 stood^H5975 there, as the glory^H3519 which I saw^H7200 by the river^H5104 of Chebar^H3529: and I fell^H5307 on my face^H6440. ²⁴Then the spirit^H7307 entered^H0935 into me, and set^H5975 me upon my feet^H7272, and spake^H1696 with me, and said^H0559 unto me, Go^H0935, shut^H5462 thyself within^H8432 thine house^H1004. ²⁵But thou, O son^H1121 of man^H0120, behold, they shall put^H5414 bands^H5688 upon thee, and shall bind^H0631 thee with them, and thou shalt not go out^H3318 among^H8432 them: ²⁶And I will make thy tongue^H3956 cleave^H1692 to the roof of thy mouth^H2441, that thou shalt be dumb^H0481, and shalt not be to them a reprover^H0376: for they are a rebellious^H4805 house^H1004. ²⁷But when I speak^H1696 with^H0854 thee, I will open^H6605 thy mouth^H6310, and thou shalt say^H0559 unto them, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; He that heareth^H8085, let him hear^H8085; and he that forbeareth^H2310, let him forbear^H2308: for they are a rebellious^H4805 house^H1004.

Ezekiel: Chapter 4

¹And thou, son^H1121 of man^H0120, take^H3947 thee a sharp^H2299 knife^H2719, take^H3947 thee a barbers^H1532 razor^H8593, and cause it to pass^H5674 upon thine head^H7218 and upon thy beard^H2206: then take^H3947 thee balances^H3976 to weigh^H4948, and divide^H2505 the hair . ²Thou shalt burn^H1197 with fire^H0217 a third part^H7992 in the midst^H8432 of the city^H5892, when the days^H3117 of the siege^H4692 are fulfilled^H4390: and thou shalt take^H3947 a third part^H7992, and smite^H5221 about^H5439 it with a knife^H2719: and a third part^H7992 thou shalt scatter^H2219 in the wind^H7307; and I will draw out^H7324 a sword^H2719 after^H0310 them. ³Thou shalt also take^H3947 thereof a few^H4592 in number^H4557, and bind^H6696 them in thy skirts^H3671. ⁴Then take of them again^H3947, and cast^H7993 them into the midst^H8432 of the fire^H0784, and burn^H8313 them in the fire^H0784; for thereof shall a fire^H0784 come forth^H3318 into all the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478.

⁵Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; This is Jerusalem^H3389: I have set^H7760 it in the midst^H8432 of the nations^H1471 and countries^H0776 that are round about^H5439 her. ⁶And she hath changed^H4784 my judgments^H4941 into wickedness^H7564 more than the nations^H1471, and my statutes^H2708 more than the countries^H0776 that are round about^H5439 her: for they have refused^H3988 my judgments^H4941 and my statutes^H2708, they have not walked^H1980 in them. ⁷Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Because ye multiplied^H1995 more than the nations^H1471 that are round about^H5439 you, and have not walked^H1980 in my statutes^H2708, neither have kept^H6213 my judgments^H4941, neither have done^H6213 according to the judgments^H4941 of the nations^H1471 that are round about^H5439 you; ⁸Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I, even I, am against thee, and will execute^H6213 judgments^H4941 in the midst^H8432 of thee in the sight^H5869 of the nations^H1471. ⁹And I will do^H6213 in thee that which I have not done^H6213, and whereunto I will not do^H6213 any more the like, because^H3282 of all thine abominations^H8441. ¹⁰Therefore the fathers^H0001 shall eat^H0398 the sons^H1121 in the midst^H8432 of thee, and the sons^H1121 shall eat^H0398 their fathers^H0001; and I will execute^H6213 judgments^H8201 in thee, and the whole remnant^H7611 of thee will I scatter^H2219 into all the winds^H7307. ¹¹Wherefore, as I live^H2416, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Surely, because thou hast defiled^H2930 my sanctuary^H4720 with all thy detestable things^H8251, and with all thine abominations^H8441, therefore will I also diminish^H1639 thee; neither shall mine eye^H5869 spare^H2347, neither will I have any pity^H2550.

¹²A third part^H7992 of thee shall die^H4191 with the pestilence^H1698, and with famine^H7458 shall they be consumed^H3615 in the midst^H8432 of thee: and a third part^H7992 shall fall^H5307 by the sword^H2719 round about^H5439 thee; and I will scatter^H2219 a third part^H7992 into all the winds^H7307, and I will draw out^H7324 a sword^H2719 after^H0310 them. ¹³Thus shall mine anger^H0639 be accomplished^H3615, and I will cause my fury^H2534 to rest^H5117 upon them, and I will be comforted^H5162: and they shall know^H3045 that I the LORD^H3068 have spoken^H1696 it in my zeal^H7068, when I have accomplished^H3615 my fury^H2534 in them. ¹⁴Moreover I will make^H5414 thee waste^H2723, and a reproach^H2781 among the nations^H1471 that are round about^H5439 thee, in the sight^H5869 of all that pass by^H5674. ¹⁵So it shall be a reproach^H2781 and a taunt^H1422, an instruction^H4148 and an astonishment^H4923 unto the nations^H1471 that are round about^H5439 thee, when I shall execute^H6213 judgments^H8201 in thee in anger^H0639 and in fury^H2534 and in furious^H2534 rebukes^H8433. I the LORD^H3068 have spoken^H1696 it . ¹⁶When I shall send^H7971 upon them the evil^H7451 arrows^H2671 of famine^H7458, which shall be for their destruction^H4889, and which I will send^H7971 to destroy^H7843 you: and I will increase^H3254 the famine^H7458 upon you, and will break^H7665 your staff^H4294 of bread^H3899: ¹⁷So will I send^H7971 upon you famine^H7458 and evil^H7451 beasts^H2416, and they shall bereave^H7921 thee; and pestilence^H1698 and blood^H1818 shall pass through^H5674 thee; and I will bring^H0935 the sword^H2719 upon thee. I the LORD^H3068 have spoken^H1696 it .

Ezekiel: Chapter 6

¹And the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, set^H7760 thy face^H6440 toward the mountains^H2022 of Israel^H3478, and prophesy^H5012 against them, ³And say^H0559, Ye mountains^H2022 of Israel^H3478, hear^H8085 the word^H1697 of the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069 to the mountains^H2022, and to the hills^H1389, to the rivers^H0650, and to the valleys^H1516; Behold, I, even I, will bring^H0935 a sword^H2719 upon you, and I will destroy^H0006 your high places^H1116. ⁴And your altars^H4196 shall be desolate^H8074, and your images^H2553 shall be broken^H7665: and I will cast down^H5307 your slain^H2491 men before^H6440 your idols^H1544. ⁵And I will lay^H5414 the dead carcases^H6297 of the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478 before^H6440 their idols^H1544; and I will scatter^H2219 your bones^H6106 round about^H5439 your altars^H4196. ⁶In all your dwellingplaces^H4186 the cities^H5892 shall be laid waste^H2717, and the high places^H1116 shall be desolate^H3456; that your altars^H4196 may be laid waste^H2717 and made desolate^H0816, and your idols^H1544 may be broken^H7665 and cease^H7673, and your images^H2553 may be cut down^H1438, and your works^H4639 may be abolished^H4229. ⁷And the slain^H2491 shall fall^H5307 in the midst^H8432 of you, and ye shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068.

⁸Yet will I leave a remnant^H3498, that ye may have some that shall escape^H6412 the sword^H2719 among the nations^H1471, when ye shall be scattered^H2219 through the countries^H0776. ⁹And they that escape^H6412 of you shall remember^H2142 me among the nations^H1471 whither they shall be carried captives^H7617, because I am broken^H7665 with their whorish^H2181 heart^H3820, which hath departed^H5493 from me, and with their eyes^H5869, which go a whoring^H2181 after^H0310 their idols^H1544: and they shall lothe^H6962 themselves^H6440 for the evils^H7451 which they have committed^H6213 in all their abominations^H8441. ¹⁰And they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068, and that I have not said^H1696 in vain^H2600 that I would do^H6213 this evil^H7451 unto them.

¹¹Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Smite^H5221 with thine hand^H3709, and stamp^H7554 with thy foot^H7272, and say^H0559, Alas^H0253 for all the evil^H7451 abominations^H8441 of the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478! for they shall fall^H5307 by the sword^H2719, by the famine^H7458, and by the pestilence^H1698. ¹²He that is far off^H7350 shall die^H4191 of the pestilence^H1698; and he that is near^H7138 shall fall^H5307 by the sword^H2719; and he that remaineth^H7604 and is besieged^H5341 shall die^H4191 by the famine^H7458: thus will I accomplish^H3615 my fury^H2534 upon them. ¹³Then shall ye know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068, when their slain^H2491 men shall be among^H8432 their idols^H1544 round about^H5439 their altars^H4196, upon every high^H7311 hill^H1389, in all the tops^H7218 of the mountains^H2022, and under every green^H7488 tree^H6086, and under every thick^H5687 oak^H0424, the place^H4725 where they did offer^H5414 sweet^H5207 savour^H7381 to all their idols^H1544. ¹⁴So will I stretch out^H5186 my hand^H3027 upon them, and make^H5414 the land^H0776 desolate^H8077, yea, more desolate^H4923 than the wilderness^H4057 toward Diblath^H1689, in all their habitations^H4186: and they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068.

Ezekiel: Chapter 7

¹Moreover the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²Also, thou son^H1121 of man^H0120, thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069 unto the land^H0127 of Israel^H3478; An end^H7093, the end^H7093 is come^H0935 upon the four^H0702 corners^H3671 of the land^H0776. ³Now is the end^H7093 come upon thee, and I will send^H7971 mine anger^H0639 upon thee, and will judge^H8199 thee according to thy ways^H1870, and will recompense^H5414 upon thee all thine abominations^H8441. ⁴And mine eye^H5869 shall not spare^H2347 thee, neither will I have pity^H2550: but I will recompense^H5414 thy ways^H1870 upon thee, and thine abominations^H8441 shall be in the midst^H8432 of thee: and ye shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068. ⁵Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; An evil^H7451, an only^H0259 evil^H7451, behold, is come^H0935. ⁶An end^H7093 is come^H0935, the end^H7093 is come^H0935: it watcheth^H6974 for thee; behold, it is come^H0935. ⁷The morning^H6843 is come^H0935 unto thee, O thou that dwellest^H3427 in the land^H0776: the time^H6256 is come^H0935, the day^H3117 of trouble^H4103 is near^H7138, and not the sounding again^H1906 of the mountains^H2022. ⁸Now will I shortly^H7138 pour out^H8210 my fury^H2534 upon thee, and accomplish^H3615 mine anger^H0639 upon thee: and I will judge^H8199 thee according to thy ways^H1870, and will recompense^H5414 thee for all thine abominations^H8441. ⁹And mine eye^H5869 shall not spare^H2347, neither will I have pity^H2550: I will recompense^H5414 thee according to thy ways^H1870 and thine abominations^H8441 that are in the midst^H8432 of thee; and ye shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068 that smiteth^H5221. ¹⁰Behold the day^H3117, behold, it is come^H0935: the morning^H6843 is gone forth^H3318; the rod^H4294 hath blossomed^H6692, pride^H2087 hath budded^H6524. ¹¹Violence^H2555 is risen up^H6965 into a rod^H4294 of wickedness^H7562: none of them shall remain , nor of their multitude^H1995, nor of any^H1991 of theirs: neither shall there be wailing^H5089 for them. ¹²The time^H6256 is come^H0935, the day^H3117 draweth near^H5060: let not the buyer^H7069 rejoice^H8055, nor the seller^H4376 mourn^H0056: for wrath^H2740 is upon all the multitude^H1995 thereof. ¹³For the seller^H4376 shall not return^H7725 to that which is sold^H4465, although they were yet alive^H2416: for the vision^H2377 is touching the whole multitude^H1995 thereof, which shall not return^H7725; neither shall any^H0376 strengthen^H2388 himself in the iniquity^H5771 of his life^H2416. ¹⁴They have blown^H8628 the trumpet^H8619, even to make all ready^H3559; but none goeth^H1980 to the battle^H4421: for my wrath^H2740 is upon all the multitude^H1995 thereof. ¹⁵The sword^H2719 is without^H2351, and the pestilence^H1698 and the famine^H7458 within^H1004: he that is in the field^H7704 shall die^H4191 with the sword^H2719; and he that is in the city^H5892, famine^H7458 and pestilence^H1698 shall devour^H0398 him.

¹⁶But they that escape^H6403 of them shall escape^H6412, and shall be on the mountains^H2022 like doves^H3123 of the valleys^H1516, all of them mourning^H1993, every one^H0376 for his iniquity^H5771. ¹⁷All hands^H3027 shall be feeble^H7503, and all knees^H1290 shall be weak^H3212 as water^H4325. ¹⁸They shall also gird^H2296 themselves with sackcloth^H8242, and horror^H6427 shall cover^H3680 them; and shame^H0955 shall be upon all faces^H6440, and baldness^H7144 upon all their heads^H7218. ¹⁹They shall cast^H7993 their silver^H3701 in the streets^H2351, and their gold^H2091 shall be removed^H5079: their silver^H3701 and their gold^H2091 shall not be able^H3201 to deliver^H5337 them in the day^H3117 of the wrath^H5678 of the LORD^H3068: they shall not satisfy^H7646 their souls^H5315, neither fill^H4390 their bowels^H4578: because it is the stumblingblock^H4383 of their iniquity^H5771.

²⁰As for the beauty^H6643 of his ornament^H5716, he set^H7760 it in majesty^H1347: but they made^H6213 the images^H6754 of their abominations^H8441 and of their detestable things^H8251 therein: therefore have I set^H5414 it far^H5079 from them. ²¹And I will give^H5414 it into the hands^H3027 of the strangers^H2114 for a prey^H0957, and to the wicked^H7563 of the earth^H0776 for a spoil^H7998; and they shall pollute^H2490 it. ²²My face^H6440 will I turn^H5437 also from them, and they shall pollute^H2490 my secret^H6845 place: for the robbers^H6530 shall enter^H0935 into it, and defile^H2490 it.

²³Make^H6213 a chain^H7569: for the land^H0776 is full^H4390 of bloody^H1818 crimes^H4941, and the city^H5892 is full^H4390 of violence^H2555. ²⁴Wherefore I will bring^H0935 the worst^H7451 of the heathen^H1471, and they shall possess^H3423 their houses^H1004: I will also make the pomp^H1347 of the strong^H5794 to cease^H7673; and their holy places^H6942 shall be defiled^H2490. ²⁵Destruction^H7089 cometh^H0935; and they shall seek^H1245 peace^H7965, and there shall be none. ²⁶Mischief^H1943 shall come^H0935 upon mischief^H1943, and rumour^H8052 shall be upon rumour^H8052; then shall they seek^H1245 a vision^H2377 of the prophet^H5030; but the law^H8451 shall perish^H0006 from the priest^H3548, and counsel^H6098 from the ancients^H2205. ²⁷The king^H4428 shall mourn^H0056, and the prince^H5387 shall be clothed^H3847 with desolation^H8077, and the hands^H3027 of the people^H5971 of the land^H0776 shall be troubled^H0926: I will do^H6213 unto them after their way^H1870, and according to their deserts^H4941 will I judge^H8199 them; and they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068.

¹And it came to pass in the sixth^H8345 year^H8141, in the sixth^H8345 month , in the fifth^H2568 day of the month^H2320, as I sat^H3427 in mine house^H1004, and the elders^H2205 of Judah^H3063 sat^H3427 before^H6440 me, that the hand^H3027 of the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069 fell^H5307 there upon me. ²Then I beheld^H7200, and lo a likeness^H1823 as the appearance^H4758 of fire^H0784: from the appearance^H4758 of his loins^H4975 even downward^H4295, fire^H0784; and from his loins^H4975 even upward^H4605, as the appearance^H4758 of brightness^H2096, as the colour^H5869 of amber^H2830. ³And he put forth^H7971 the form^H8403 of an hand^H3027, and took^H3947 me by a lock^H6734 of mine head^H7218; and the spirit^H7307 lifted me up^H5375 between the earth^H0776 and the heaven^H8064, and brought^H0935 me in the visions^H4759 of God^H0430 to Jerusalem^H3389, to the door^H6607 of the inner^H6442 gate^H8179 that looketh^H6437 toward the north^H6828; where was the seat^H4186 of the image^H5566 of jealousy^H7068, which provoketh to jealousy^H7069. ⁴And, behold, the glory^H3519 of the God^H0430 of Israel^H3478 was there, according to the vision^H4758 that I saw^H7200 in the plain^H1237.

⁵Then said^H0559 he unto me, Son^H1121 of man^H0120, lift up^H5375 thine eyes^H5869 now the way^H1870 toward the north^H6828. So I lifted up^H5375 mine eyes^H5869 the way^H1870 toward the north^H6828, and behold northward^H6828 at the gate^H8179 of the altar^H4196 this image^H5566 of jealousy^H7068 in the entry^H0872. ⁶He said^H0559 furthermore unto me, Son^H1121 of man^H0120, seest^H7200 thou what they do^H6213? even the great^H1419 abominations^H8441 that the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 committeth^H6213 here, that I should go far off^H7368 from my sanctuary^H4720? but turn^H7725 thee yet again, and thou shalt see^H7200 greater^H1419 abominations^H8441.

⁷And he brought^H0935 me to the door^H6607 of the court^H2691; and when I looked^H7200, behold a^H0259 hole^H2356 in the wall^H7023. ⁸Then said^H0559 he unto me, Son^H1121 of man^H0120, dig^H2864 now in the wall^H7023: and when I had digged^H2864 in the wall^H7023, behold a^H0259 door^H6607. ⁹And he said^H0559 unto me, Go in^H0935, and behold^H7200 the wicked^H7451 abominations^H8441 that they do^H6213 here. ¹⁰So I went in^H0935 and saw^H7200; and behold every form^H8403 of creeping things^H7431, and abominable^H8263 beasts^H0929, and all the idols^H1544 of the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, pourtrayed^H2707 upon the wall^H7023 round about^H5439. ¹¹And there stood^H5975 before^H6440 them seventy^H7657 men^H0376 of the ancients^H2205 of the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, and in the midst^H8432 of them stood^H5975 Jaazaniah^H2970 the son^H1121 of Shaphan^H8227, with every man^H0376 his censer^H4730 in his hand^H3027; and a thick^H6282 cloud^H6051 of incense^H7004 went up^H5927. ¹²Then said^H0559 he unto me, Son^H1121 of man^H0120, hast thou seen^H7200 what the ancients^H2205 of the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 do^H6213 in the dark^H2822, every man^H0376 in the chambers^H2315 of his imagery^H4906? for they say^H0559, The LORD^H3068 seeth^H7200 us not; the LORD^H3068 hath forsaken^H5800 the earth^H0776.

¹³He said^H0559 also unto me, Turn^H7725 thee yet again, and thou shalt see^H7200 greater^H1419 abominations^H8441 that they do^H6213. ¹⁴Then he brought^H0935 me to the door^H6607 of the gate^H8179 of the LORDs^H3068 house^H1004 which was toward the north^H6828; and, behold, there sat^H3427 women^H0802 weeping^H1058 for Tammuz^H8542.

¹⁵Then said^H0559 he unto me, Hast thou seen^H7200 this , O son^H1121 of man^H0120? turn^H7725 thee yet again, and thou shalt see^H7200 greater^H1419 abominations^H8441 than these. ¹⁶And he brought^H0935 me into the inner^H6442 court^H2691 of the LORDs^H3068 house^H1004, and, behold, at the door^H6607 of the temple^H1964 of the LORD^H3068, between the porch^H0197 and the altar^H4196, were about five^H2568 and twenty^H6242 men^H0376, with their backs^H0268 toward the temple^H1964 of the LORD^H3068, and their faces^H6440 toward the east^H6924; and they worshipped^H7812 the sun^H8121 toward the east^H6924.

¹⁷Then he said^H0559 unto me, Hast thou seen^H7200 this , O son^H1121 of man^H0120? Is it a light thing^H7043 to the house^H1004 of Judah^H3063 that they commit^H6213 the abominations^H8441 which they commit^H6213 here? for they have filled^H4390 the land^H0776 with violence^H2555, and have returned^H7725 to provoke me to anger^H3707: and, lo, they put^H7971 the branch^H2156 to their nose^H0639. ¹⁸Therefore will I also deal^H6213 in fury^H2534: mine eye^H5869 shall not spare^H2347, neither will I have pity^H2550: and though they cry^H7121 in mine ears^H0241 with a loud^H1419 voice^H6963, yet will I not hear^H8085 them.

Ezekiel: Chapter 9

¹He cried^H7121 also in mine ears^H0241 with a loud^H1419 voice^H6963, saying^H0559, Cause them that have charge^H6486 over the city^H5892 to draw near^H7126, even every man^H0376 with his destroying^H4892 weapon^H3627 in his hand^H3027. ²And, behold, six^H8337 men^H0582 came^H0935 from the way^H1870 of the higher^H5945 gate^H8179, which lieth^H6437 toward the north^H6828, and every man^H0376 a slaughter^H4660 weapon^H3627 in his hand^H3027; and one^H0259 man^H0376 among^H8432 them was clothed^H3847 with linen^H0906, with a writers^H5608 inkhorn^H7083 by his side^H4975: and they went in^H0935, and stood^H5975 beside^H0681 the brasen^H5178 altar^H4196. ³And the glory^H3519 of the God^H0430 of Israel^H3478 was gone up^H5927 from the cherub^H3742, whereupon he was, to the threshold^H4670 of the house^H1004. And he called^H7121 to the man^H0376 clothed^H3847 with linen^H0906, which had the writers^H5608 inkhorn^H7083 by his side^H4975; ⁴And the LORD^H3068 said^H0559 unto him, Go through^H5674 the midst^H8432 of the city^H5892, through the midst^H8432 of Jerusalem^H3389, and set^H8427 a mark^H8420 upon the foreheads^H4696 of the men^H0582 that sigh^H0584 and that cry^H0602 for all the abominations^H8441 that be done^H6213 in the midst^H8432 thereof.

⁵And to the others^H0428 he said^H0559 in mine hearing^H0241, Go^H5674 ye after^H0310 him through the city^H5892, and smite^H5221: let not your eye^H5869 spare^H2347, neither have ye pity^H2550: ⁶Slay^H2026 utterly^H4889 old^H2205 and young^H0970, both maids^H1330, and little children^H2945, and women^H0802: but come not near^H5066 any man^H0376 upon whom is the mark^H8420; and begin^H2490 at my sanctuary^H4720. Then they began^H2490 at the ancient^H2205 men^H0582 which were before^H6440 the house^H1004. ⁷And he said^H0559 unto them, Defile^H2930 the house^H1004, and fill^H4390 the courts^H2691 with the slain^H2491: go ye forth^H3318. And they went forth^H3318, and slew^H5221 in the city^H5892.

⁸And it came to pass, while they were slaying^H5221 them, and I was left^H7604, that I fell^H5307 upon my face^H6440, and cried^H2199, and said^H0559, Ah^H0162 Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069! wilt thou destroy^H7843 all the residue^H7611 of Israel^H3478 in thy pouring out^H8210 of thy fury^H2534 upon Jerusalem^H3389? ⁹Then said^H0559 he unto me, The iniquity^H5771 of the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 and Judah^H3063 is exceeding^H3966 great^H1419, and the land^H0776 is full^H4390 of blood^H1818, and the city^H5892 full^H4390 of perverseness^H4297: for they say^H0559, The LORD^H3068 hath forsaken^H5800 the earth^H0776, and the LORD^H3068 seeth^H7200 not. ¹⁰And as for me also, mine eye^H5869 shall not spare^H2347, neither will I have pity^H2550, but I will recompense^H5414 their way^H1870 upon their head^H7218. ¹¹And, behold, the man^H0376 clothed^H3847 with linen^H0906, which had the inkhorn^H7083 by his side^H4975, reported^H7725 the matter^H1697, saying^H0559, I have done^H6213 as thou hast commanded^H6680 me.

Ezekiel: Chapter 10

¹Then I looked^H7200, and, behold, in the firmament^H7549 that was above the head^H7218 of the cherubims^H3742 there appeared^H7200 over them as it were a sapphire^H5601 stone^H0068, as the appearance^H4758 of the likeness^H1823 of a throne^H3678. ²And he spake^H0559 unto the man^H0376 clothed^H3847 with linen^H0906, and said^H0559, Go in^H0935 between^H0996 the wheels^H1534, even under the cherub^H3742, and fill^H4390 thine hand^H2651 with coals^H1513 of fire^H0784 from between^H0996 the cherubims^H3742, and scatter^H2236 them over the city^H5892. And he went in^H0935 in my sight^H5869. ³Now the cherubims^H3742 stood^H5975 on the right side^H3225 of the house^H1004, when the man^H0376 went in^H0935; and the cloud^H6051 filled^H4390 the inner^H6442 court^H2691. ⁴Then the glory^H3519 of the LORD^H3068 went up^H7311 from the cherub^H3742, and stood over the threshold^H4670 of the house^H1004; and the house^H1004 was filled^H4390 with the cloud^H6051, and the court^H2691 was full^H4390 of the brightness^H5051 of the LORDs^H3068 glory^H3519. ⁵And the sound^H6963 of the cherubims^H3742 wings^H3671 was heard^H8085 even to the outer^H2435 court^H2691, as the voice^H6963 of the Almighty^H7706 God^H0410 when he speaketh^H1696. ⁶And it came to pass, that when he had commanded^H6680 the man^H0376 clothed^H3847 with linen^H0906, saying^H0559, Take^H3947 fire^H0784 from between the wheels^H1534, from between the cherubims^H3742; then he went in^H0935, and stood^H5975 beside^H0681 the wheels^H0212. ⁷And one cherub^H3742 stretched forth^H7971 his hand^H3027 from between the cherubims^H3742 unto the fire^H0784 that was between the cherubims^H3742, and took^H5375 thereof , and put^H5414 it into the hands^H2651 of him that was clothed^H3847 with linen^H0906: who took^H3947 it , and went out^H3318.

⁸And there appeared^H7200 in the cherubims^H3742 the form^H8403 of a mans^H0120 hand^H3027 under their wings^H3671. ⁹And when I looked^H7200, behold the four^H0702 wheels^H0212 by^H0681 the cherubims^H3742, one^H0259 wheel^H0212 by^H0681 one^H0259 cherub^H3742, and another^H0259 wheel^H0212 by^H0681 another^H0259 cherub^H3742: and the appearance^H4758 of the wheels^H0212 was as the colour^H5869 of a beryl^H8658 stone^H0068. ¹⁰And as for their appearances^H4758, they four^H0702 had one^H0259 likeness^H1823, as if a wheel^H0212 had been in the midst^H8432 of a wheel^H0212. ¹¹When they went^H3212, they went^H3212 upon their four^H0702 sides^H7253; they turned^H5437 not as they went^H3212, but to the place^H4725 whither the head^H7218 looked^H6437 they followed^H3212 it; they turned^H5437 not as they went^H3212. ¹²And their whole body^H1320, and their backs^H1354, and their hands^H3027, and their wings^H3671, and the wheels^H0212, were full^H4392 of eyes^H5869 round about^H5439, even the wheels^H0212 that they four^H0702 had. ¹³As for the wheels^H0212, it was cried^H7121 unto them in my hearing^H0241, O wheel^H1534. ¹⁴And every one^H0259 had four^H0702 faces^H6440: the first^H0259 face^H6440 was the face^H6440 of a cherub^H3742, and the second^H8145 face^H6440 was the face^H6440 of a man^H0120, and the third^H7992 the face^H6440 of a lion^H0738, and the fourth^H7243 the face^H6440 of an eagle^H5404. ¹⁵And the cherubims^H3742 were lifted up^H7426. This is the living creature^H2416 that I saw^H7200 by the river^H5104 of Chebar^H3529. ¹⁶And when the cherubims^H3742 went^H3212, the wheels^H0212 went^H3212 by them^H0681: and when the cherubims^H3742 lifted up^H5375 their wings^H3671 to mount up^H7311 from the earth^H0776, the same wheels^H0212 also^H1992 turned^H5437 not from beside^H0681 them. ¹⁷When they stood^H5975, these stood^H5975; and when they were lifted up^H7311, these lifted up^H7426 themselves also: for the spirit^H7307 of the living creature^H2416 was in them. ¹⁸Then the glory^H3519 of the LORD^H3068 departed^H3318 from off the threshold^H4670 of the house^H1004, and stood^H5975 over the cherubims^H3742. ¹⁹And the cherubims^H3742 lifted up^H5375 their wings^H3671, and mounted up^H7426 from the earth^H0776 in my sight^H5869: when they went out^H3318, the wheels^H0212 also were beside^H5980 them, and every one stood^H5975 at the door^H6607 of the east^H6931 gate^H8179 of the LORDs^H3068 house^H1004; and the glory^H3519 of the God^H0430 of Israel^H3478 was over them above^H4605. ²⁰This is the living creature^H2416 that I saw^H7200 under the God^H0430 of Israel^H3478 by the river^H5104 of Chebar^H3529; and I knew^H3045 that they were the cherubims^H3742. ²¹Every one^H0259 had four^H0702 faces^H6440 apiece^H0259, and every one^H0259 four^H0702 wings^H3671; and the likeness^H1823 of the hands^H3027 of a man^H0120 was under their wings^H3671. ²²And the likeness^H1823 of their faces^H6440 was the same^H1992 faces^H6440 which I saw^H7200 by the river^H5104 of Chebar^H3529, their appearances^H4758 and themselves: they went^H3212 every one^H0376 straight^H5676 forward^H6440.

Ezekiel: Chapter 11

¹Moreover the spirit^H7307 lifted me up^H5375, and brought^H0935 me unto the east^H6931 gate^H8179 of the LORDs^H3068 house^H1004, which looketh^H6437 eastward^H6921: and behold at the door^H6607 of the gate^H8179 five^H2568 and twenty^H6242 men^H0376; among^H8432 whom I saw^H7200 Jaazaniah^H2970 the son^H1121 of Azur^H5809, and Pelatiah^H6410 the son^H1121 of Benaiah^H1141, princes^H8269 of the people^H5971. ²Then said^H0559 he unto me, Son^H1121 of man^H0120, these are the men^H0582 that devise^H2803 mischief^H0205, and give^H3289 wicked^H7451 counsel^H6098 in this city^H5892: ³Which say^H0559, It is not near^H7138; let us build^H1129 houses^H1004: this city is the caldron^H5518, and we be the flesh^H1320.

⁴Therefore prophesy^H5012 against them, prophesy^H5012, O son^H1121 of man^H0120. ⁵And the Spirit^H7307 of the LORD^H3068 fell^H5307 upon me, and said^H0559 unto me, Speak^H0559; Thus saith^H0559 the LORD^H3068; Thus have ye said^H0559, O house^H1004 of Israel^H3478: for I know^H3045 the things that come^H4609 into your mind^H7307, every one of them. ⁶Ye have multiplied^H7235 your slain^H2491 in this city^H5892, and ye have filled^H4390 the streets^H2351 thereof with the slain^H2491. ⁷Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Your slain^H2491 whom ye have laid^H7760 in the midst^H8432 of it, they are the flesh^H1320, and this city is the caldron^H5518: but I will bring you forth^H3318 out of the midst^H8432 of it. ⁸Ye have feared^H3372 the sword^H2719; and I will bring^H0935 a sword^H2719 upon you, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ⁹And I will bring you out^H3318 of the midst^H8432 thereof, and deliver^H5414 you into the hands^H3027 of strangers^H2114, and will execute^H6213 judgments^H8201 among you. ¹⁰Ye shall fall^H5307 by the sword^H2719; I will judge^H8199 you in the border^H1366 of Israel^H3478; and ye shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068. ¹¹This city shall not be your caldron^H5518, neither shall ye be the flesh^H1320 in the midst^H8432 thereof; but I will judge^H8199 you in the border^H1366 of Israel^H3478: ¹²And ye shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068: for ye have not walked^H1980 in my statutes^H2706, neither executed^H6213 my judgments^H4941, but have done^H6213 after the manners^H4941 of the heathen^H1471 that are round about^H5439 you.

¹³And it came to pass, when I prophesied^H5012, that Pelatiah^H6410 the son^H1121 of Benaiah^H1141 died^H4191. Then fell I down^H5307 upon my face^H6440, and cried^H2199 with a loud^H1419 voice^H6963, and said^H0559, Ah^H0162 Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069! wilt thou make^H6213 a full end^H3617 of the remnant^H7611 of Israel^H3478?

¹⁴Again the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ¹⁵Son^H1121 of man^H0120, thy brethren^H0251, even thy brethren^H0251, the men^H0582 of thy kindred^H1353, and all the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 wholly, are they unto whom the inhabitants^H3427 of Jerusalem^H3389 have said^H0559, Get you far^H7368 from the LORD^H3068: unto us is this land^H0776 given^H5414 in possession^H4181. ¹⁶Therefore say^H0559, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Although I have cast them far off^H7368 among the heathen^H1471, and although I have scattered^H6327 them among the countries^H0776, yet will I be to them as a little^H4592 sanctuary^H4720 in the countries^H0776 where they shall come^H0935. ¹⁷Therefore say^H0559, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; I will even gather^H6908 you from the people^H5971, and assemble^H0622 you out of the countries^H0776 where ye have been scattered^H6327, and I will give^H5414 you the land^H0127 of Israel^H3478. ¹⁸And they shall come^H0935 thither, and they shall take away^H5493 all the detestable things^H8251 thereof and all the abominations^H8441 thereof from thence. ¹⁹And I will give^H5414 them one^H0259 heart^H3820, and I will put^H5414 a new^H2319 spirit^H7307 within^H7130 you; and I will take^H5493 the stony^H0068 heart^H3820 out of their flesh^H1320, and will give^H5414 them an heart^H3820 of flesh^H1320: ²⁰That they may walk^H3212 in my statutes^H2708, and keep^H8104 mine ordinances^H4941, and do^H6213 them: and they shall be my people^H5971, and I will be their God^H0430. ²¹But as for them whose heart^H3820 walketh^H1980 after the heart^H3820 of their detestable things^H8251 and their abominations^H8441, I will recompense^H5414 their way^H1870 upon their own heads^H7218, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

²²Then did the cherubims^H3742 lift up^H5375 their wings^H3671, and the wheels^H0212 beside^H5980 them; and the glory^H3519 of the God^H0430 of Israel^H3478 was over them above^H4605. ²³And the glory^H3519 of the LORD^H3068 went up^H5927 from the midst^H8432 of the city^H5892, and stood^H5975 upon the mountain^H2022 which is on the east side^H6924 of the city^H5892.

²⁴Afterwards the spirit^H7307 took me up^H5375, and brought^H0935 me in a vision^H4758 by the Spirit^H7307 of God^H0430 into Chaldea^H3778, to them of the captivity^H1473. So the vision^H4758 that I had seen^H7200 went up^H5927 from me. ²⁵Then I spake^H1696 unto them of the captivity^H1473 all the things^H1697 that the LORD^H3068 had shewed^H7200 me.

Ezekiel: Chapter 12

¹The word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 also came unto me, saying^H0559, ²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, thou dwellest^H3427 in the midst^H8432 of a rebellious^H4805 house^H1004, which have eyes^H5869 to see^H7200, and see^H7200 not; they have ears^H0241 to hear^H8085, and hear^H8085 not: for they are a rebellious^H4805 house^H1004. ³Therefore, thou son^H1121 of man^H0120, prepare^H6213 thee stuff^H3627 for removing^H1473, and remove^H1540 by day^H3119 in their sight^H5869; and thou shalt remove^H1540 from thy place^H4725 to another^H0312 place^H4725 in their sight^H5869: it may be they will consider^H7200, though they be a rebellious^H4805 house^H1004. ⁴Then shalt thou bring forth^H3318 thy stuff^H3627 by day^H3119 in their sight^H5869, as stuff^H3627 for removing^H1473: and thou shalt go forth^H3318 at even^H6153 in their sight^H5869, as they that go forth^H4161 into captivity^H1473. ⁵Dig^H2864 thou through the wall^H7023 in their sight^H5869, and carry out^H3318 thereby. ⁶In their sight^H5869 shalt thou bear^H5375 it upon thy shoulders^H3802, and carry it forth^H3318 in the twilight^H5939: thou shalt cover^H3680 thy face^H6440, that thou see^H7200 not the ground^H0776: for I have set^H5414 thee for a sign^H4159 unto the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478. ⁷And I did^H6213 so as I was commanded^H6680: I brought forth^H3318 my stuff^H3627 by day^H3119, as stuff^H3627 for captivity^H1473, and in the even^H6153 I digged^H2864 through the wall^H7023 with mine hand^H3027; I brought it forth^H3318 in the twilight^H5939, and I bare^H5375 it upon my shoulder^H3802 in their sight^H5869.

⁸And in the morning^H1242 came the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 unto me, saying^H0559, ⁹Son^H1121 of man^H0120, hath not the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, the rebellious^H4805 house^H1004, said^H0559 unto thee, What doest^H6213 thou? ¹⁰Say^H0559 thou unto them, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; This burden^H4853 concerneth the prince^H5387 in Jerusalem^H3389, and all the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 that are among^H8432 them. ¹¹Say^H0559, I am your sign^H4159: like as I have done^H6213, so shall it be done^H6213 unto them: they shall remove^H1473 and go^H3212 into captivity^H7628. ¹²And the prince^H5387 that is among^H8432 them shall bear^H5375 upon his shoulder^H3802 in the twilight^H5939, and shall go forth^H3318: they shall dig^H2864 through the wall^H7023 to carry out^H3318 thereby: he shall cover^H3680 his face^H6440, that^H3282 he see^H7200 not the ground^H0776 with his eyes^H5869. ¹³My net^H7568 also will I spread^H6566 upon him, and he shall be taken^H8610 in my snare^H4686: and I will bring^H0935 him to Babylon^H0894 to the land^H0776 of the Chaldeans^H3778; yet shall he not see^H7200 it, though he shall die^H4191 there. ¹⁴And I will scatter^H2219 toward every wind^H7307 all that are about^H5439 him to help^H5828 him, and all his bands^H0102; and I will draw out^H7324 the sword^H2719 after^H0310 them. ¹⁵And they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068, when I shall scatter^H6327 them among the nations^H1471, and disperse^H2219 them in the countries^H0776. ¹⁶But I will leave^H3498 a few^H4557 men^H0582 of them from the sword^H2719, from the famine^H7458, and from the pestilence^H1698; that they may declare^H5608 all their abominations^H8441 among the heathen^H1471 whither they come^H0935; and they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068.

¹⁷Moreover the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came to me, saying^H0559, ¹⁸Son^H1121 of man^H0120, eat^H0398 thy bread^H3899 with quaking^H7494, and drink^H8354 thy water^H4325 with trembling^H7269 and with carefulness^H1674; ¹⁹And say^H0559 unto the people^H5971 of the land^H0127, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069 of the inhabitants^H3427 of Jerusalem^H3389, and of the land^H0776 of Israel^H3478; They shall eat^H0398 their bread^H3899 with carefulness^H1674, and drink^H8354 their water^H4325 with astonishment^H8078, that her land^H0776 may be desolate^H3456 from all that is therein^H4393, because of the violence^H2555 of all them that dwell^H3427 therein. ²⁰And the cities^H5892 that are inhabited^H3427 shall be laid waste^H2717, and the land^H0776 shall be desolate^H8077; and ye shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068.

²¹And the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, what is that proverb^H4912 that ye have in the land^H0127 of Israel^H3478, saying^H0559, The days^H3117 are prolonged^H0748, and every vision^H2377 faileth^H0006? ²³Tell^H0559 them therefore, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; I will make this proverb^H4912 to cease^H7673, and they shall no more use it as a proverb^H4911 in Israel^H3478; but say^H1696 unto them, The days^H3117 are at hand^H7126, and the effect^H1697 of every vision^H2377. ²⁴For there shall be no more any vain^H7723 vision^H2377 nor flattering^H2509 divination^H4738 within^H8432 the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478. ²⁵For I am the LORD^H3068: I will speak^H1696, and the word^H1697 that I shall speak^H1696 shall come to pass^H6213; it shall be no more prolonged^H4900: for in your days^H3117, O rebellious^H4805 house^H1004, will I say^H1696 the word^H1697, and will perform^H6213 it, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

²⁶Again the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came to me, saying^H0559, ²⁷Son^H1121 of man^H0120, behold, they of the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 say^H0559, The vision^H2377 that he seeth^H2372 is for many^H7227 days^H3117 to come , and he prophesieth^H5012 of the times^H6256 that are far^H7350 off. ²⁸Therefore say^H0559 unto them, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; There shall none of my words^H1697 be prolonged^H4900 any more, but the word^H1697 which I have spoken^H1696 shall be done^H6213, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

Ezekiel: Chapter 13

¹And the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, prophesy^H5012 against the prophets^H5030 of Israel^H3478 that prophesy^H5012, and say^H0559 thou unto them that prophesy^H5030 out of their own hearts^H3820, Hear^H8085 ye the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068; ³Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Woe^H1945 unto the foolish^H5036 prophets^H5030, that follow^H1980 their own spirit^H7307, and have seen^H7200 nothing! ⁴O Israel^H3478, thy prophets^H5030 are like the foxes^H7776 in the deserts^H2723. ⁵Ye have not gone up^H5927 into the gaps^H6556, neither made up^H1443 the hedge^H1447 for the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 to stand^H5975 in the battle^H4421 in the day^H3117 of the LORD^H3068. ⁶They have seen^H2372 vanity^H7723 and lying^H3577 divination^H7081, saying^H0559, The LORD^H3068 saith^H5002: and the LORD^H3068 hath not sent^H7971 them: and they have made others to hope^H3176 that they would confirm^H6965 the word^H1697. ⁷Have ye not seen^H2372 a vain^H7723 vision^H4236, and have ye not spoken^H1696 a lying^H3577 divination^H4738, whereas ye say^H0559, The LORD^H3068 saith^H5002 it; albeit I have not spoken^H0559? ⁸Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Because ye have spoken^H1696 vanity^H7723, and seen^H2372 lies^H3577, therefore, behold, I am against you, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ⁹And mine hand^H3027 shall be upon the prophets^H5030 that see^H2374 vanity^H7723, and that divine^H7080 lies^H3577: they shall not be in the assembly^H5475 of my people^H5971, neither shall they be written^H3789 in the writing^H3791 of the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, neither shall they enter^H0935 into the land^H0127 of Israel^H3478; and ye shall know^H3045 that I am the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

¹⁰Because, even because they have seduced^H2937 my people^H5971, saying^H0559, Peace^H7965; and there was no peace^H7965; and one built up^H1129 a wall^H2434, and, lo^H2009, others daubed^H2902 it with untempered^H8602 morter: ¹¹Say^H0559 unto them which daub^H2902 it with untempered^H8602 morter , that it shall fall^H5307: there shall be an overflowing^H7857 shower^H1653; and ye^H0859, O great hailstones^H0417, shall fall^H5307; and a stormy^H5591 wind^H7307 shall rend^H1234 it . ¹²Lo, when the wall^H7023 is fallen^H5307, shall it not be said^H0559 unto you, Where is the daubing^H2915 wherewith ye have daubed^H2902 it ? ¹³Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; I will even rend^H1234 it with a stormy^H5591 wind^H7307 in my fury^H2534; and there shall be an overflowing^H7857 shower^H1653 in mine anger^H0639, and great hailstones^H0417 in my fury^H2534 to consume^H3617 it . ¹⁴So will I break down^H2040 the wall^H7023 that ye have daubed^H2902 with untempered^H8602 morter , and bring^H5060 it down to the ground^H0776, so that the foundation^H3247 thereof shall be discovered^H1540, and it shall fall^H5307, and ye shall be consumed^H3615 in the midst^H8432 thereof: and ye shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068. ¹⁵Thus will I accomplish^H3615 my wrath^H2534 upon the wall^H7023, and upon them that have daubed^H2902 it with untempered^H8602 morter , and will say^H0559 unto you, The wall^H7023 is no more , neither they that daubed^H2902 it; ¹⁶ To wit , the prophets^H5030 of Israel^H3478 which prophesy^H5012 concerning Jerusalem^H3389, and which see^H2374 visions^H2377 of peace^H7965 for her, and there is no peace^H7965, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

¹⁷Likewise, thou son^H1121 of man^H0120, set^H7760 thy face^H6440 against the daughters^H1323 of thy people^H5971, which prophesy^H5012 out of their own heart^H3820; and prophesy^H5012 thou against them, ¹⁸And say^H0559, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Woe^H1945 to the women that sew^H8609 pillows^H3704 to all armholes^H0679, and make^H6213 kerchiefs^H4555 upon the head^H7218 of every stature^H6967 to hunt^H6679 souls^H5315! Will ye hunt^H6679 the souls^H5315 of my people^H5971, and will ye save^H2421 the souls^H5315 alive^H2421 that come unto you? ¹⁹And will ye pollute^H2490 me among my people^H5971 for handfuls^H8168 of barley^H8184 and for pieces^H6595 of bread^H3899, to slay^H4191 the souls^H5315 that should not die^H4191, and to save^H2421 the souls^H5315 alive^H2421 that should not live^H2421, by your lying^H3576 to my people^H5971 that hear^H8085 your lies^H3577? ²⁰Wherefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I am against your pillows^H3704, wherewith ye^H0859 there hunt^H6679 the souls^H5315 to make them fly^H6524, and I will tear^H7167 them from your arms^H2220, and will let the souls^H5315 go^H7971, even the souls^H5315 that ye hunt^H6679 to make them fly^H6524. ²¹Your kerchiefs^H4555 also will I tear^H7167, and deliver^H5337 my people^H5971 out of your hand^H3027, and they shall be no more in your hand^H3027 to be hunted^H4686; and ye shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068. ²²Because with lies^H8267 ye have made the heart^H3820 of the righteous^H6662 sad^H3512, whom I have not made sad^H3510; and strengthened^H2388 the hands^H3027 of the wicked^H7451, that he should not return^H7725 from his wicked^H7563 way^H1870, by promising him life^H2421: ²³Therefore ye shall see^H2372 no more vanity^H7723, nor divine^H7080 divinations^H7081: for I will deliver^H5337 my people^H5971 out of your hand^H3027: and ye shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068.

Ezekiel: Chapter 14

¹Then came^H0935 certain^H0582 of the elders^H2205 of Israel^H3478 unto me, and sat^H3427 before^H6440 me. ²And the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ³Son^H1121 of man^H0120, these men^H0582 have set up^H5927 their idols^H1544 in their heart^H3820, and put^H5414 the stumblingblock^H4383 of their iniquity^H5771 before^H5227 their face^H6440: should I be enquired^H1875 of at all^H1875 by them? ⁴Therefore speak^H1696 unto them, and say^H0559 unto them, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Every man^H0376 of the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 that setteth up^H5927 his idols^H1544 in his heart^H3820, and putteth^H7760 the stumblingblock^H4383 of his iniquity^H5771 before^H5227 his face^H6440, and cometh^H0935 to the prophet^H5030; I the LORD^H3068 will answer^H6030 him that cometh^H0935 according to the multitude^H7230 of his idols^H1544; ⁵That I may take^H8610 the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 in their own heart^H3820, because they are all estranged^H2114 from me through their idols^H1544.

⁶Therefore say^H0559 unto the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Repent^H7725, and turn^H7725 yourselves from your idols^H1544; and turn away^H7725 your faces^H6440 from all your abominations^H8441. ⁷For every one^H0376 of the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, or of the stranger^H1616 that sojourneth^H1481 in Israel^H3478, which separateth^H5144 himself from me^H0310, and setteth up^H5927 his idols^H1544 in his heart^H3820, and putteth^H7760 the stumblingblock^H4383 of his iniquity^H5771 before^H5227 his face^H6440, and cometh^H0935 to a prophet^H5030 to enquire^H1875 of him concerning me; I the LORD^H3068 will answer^H6030 him by myself: ⁸And I will set^H5414 my face^H6440 against that man^H0376, and will make^H8074 him a sign^H0226 and a proverb^H4912, and I will cut him off^H3772 from the midst^H8432 of my people^H5971; and ye shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068. ⁹And if the prophet^H5030 be deceived^H6601 when he hath spoken^H1696 a thing^H1697, I the LORD^H3068 have deceived^H6601 that prophet^H5030, and I will stretch out^H5186 my hand^H3027 upon him, and will destroy^H8045 him from the midst^H8432 of my people^H5971 Israel^H3478. ¹⁰And they shall bear^H5375 the punishment of their iniquity^H5771: the punishment^H5771 of the prophet^H5030 shall be even as the punishment^H5771 of him that seeketh^H1875 unto him; ¹¹That the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 may go no more astray^H8582 from me^H0310, neither be polluted^H2930 any more with all their transgressions^H6588; but that they may be my people^H5971, and I may be their God^H0430, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

¹²The word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came again to me, saying^H0559, ¹³Son^H1121 of man^H0120, when the land^H0776 sinneth^H2398 against me by trespassing^H4603 grievously^H4604, then will I stretch out^H5186 mine hand^H3027 upon it, and will break^H7665 the staff^H4294 of the bread^H3899 thereof, and will send^H7971 famine^H7458 upon it, and will cut off^H3772 man^H0120 and beast^H0929 from it: ¹⁴Though these three^H7969 men^H0582, Noah^H5146, Daniel^H1840, and Job^H0347, were in it^H8432, they should deliver^H5337 but their own souls^H5315 by their righteousness^H6666, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

¹⁵If^H3863 I cause noisome^H7451 beasts^H2416 to pass through^H5674 the land^H0776, and they spoil^H7921 it, so that it be desolate^H8077, that no man may pass through^H5674 because^H6440 of the beasts^H2416: ¹⁶ Though these three^H7969 men^H0582 were in it^H8432, as I live^H2416, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, they shall deliver^H5337 neither sons^H1121 nor daughters^H1323; they only shall be delivered^H5337, but the land^H0776 shall be desolate^H8077.

¹⁷Or if I bring^H0935 a sword^H2719 upon that land^H0776, and say^H0559, Sword^H2719, go through^H5674 the land^H0776; so that I cut off^H3772 man^H0120 and beast^H0929 from it: ¹⁸Though these three^H7969 men^H0582 were in it^H8432, as I live^H2416, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, they shall deliver^H5337 neither sons^H1121 nor daughters^H1323, but they only shall be delivered^H5337 themselves.

¹⁹Or if I send^H7971 a pestilence^H1698 into that land^H0776, and pour out^H8210 my fury^H2534 upon it in blood^H1818, to cut off^H3772 from it man^H0120 and beast^H0929: ²⁰Though Noah^H5146, Daniel^H1840, and Job^H0347, were in it^H8432, as I live^H2416, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, they shall deliver^H5337 neither son^H1121 nor^H0518 daughter^H1323; they shall but deliver^H5337 their own souls^H5315 by their righteousness^H6666. ²¹For thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; How much more when I send^H7971 my four^H0702 sore^H7451 judgments^H8201 upon Jerusalem^H3389, the sword^H2719, and the famine^H7458, and the noisome^H7451 beast^H2416, and the pestilence^H1698, to cut off^H3772 from it man^H0120 and beast^H0929?

²²Yet, behold, therein shall be left^H3498 a remnant^H6413 that shall be brought forth^H3318, both sons^H1121 and daughters^H1323: behold, they shall come forth^H3318 unto you, and ye shall see^H7200 their way^H1870 and their doings^H5949: and ye shall be comforted^H5162 concerning the evil^H7451 that I have brought^H0935 upon Jerusalem^H3389, even concerning all that I have brought^H0935 upon it. ²³And they shall comfort^H5162 you, when ye see^H7200 their ways^H1870 and their doings^H5949: and ye shall know^H3045 that I have not done^H6213 without cause^H2600 all that I have done^H6213 in it, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

Ezekiel: Chapter 15

¹And the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, What is the vine^H1612 tree^H6086 more than any tree^H6086, or than a branch^H2156 which is among the trees^H6086 of the forest^H3293? ³Shall wood^H6086 be taken^H3947 thereof to do^H6213 any work^H4399? or will men take^H3947 a pin^H3489 of it to hang^H8518 any vessel^H3627 thereon? ⁴Behold, it is cast^H5414 into the fire^H0784 for fuel^H0402; the fire^H0784 devoureth^H0398 both^H8147 the ends^H7098 of it, and the midst^H8432 of it is burned^H2787. Is it meet^H6743 for any work^H4399? ⁵Behold, when it was whole^H8549, it was meet^H6213 for no work^H4399: how much less shall it be meet^H6213 yet for any work^H4399, when the fire^H0784 hath devoured^H0398 it, and it is burned^H2787?

⁶Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; As the vine^H1612 tree^H6086 among the trees^H6086 of the forest^H3293, which I have given^H5414 to the fire^H0784 for fuel^H0402, so will I give^H5414 the inhabitants^H3427 of Jerusalem^H3389. ⁷And I will set^H5414 my face^H6440 against them; they shall go out^H3318 from one fire^H0784, and another fire^H0784 shall devour^H0398 them; and ye shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068, when I set^H7760 my face^H6440 against them. ⁸And I will make^H5414 the land^H0776 desolate^H8077, because they have committed^H4603 a trespass^H4604, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

Ezekiel: Chapter 16

¹Again the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, cause Jerusalem^H3389 to know^H3045 her abominations^H8441, ³And say^H0559, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069 unto Jerusalem^H3389; Thy birth^H4351 and thy nativity^H4138 is of the land^H0776 of Canaan^H3669; thy father^H0001 was an Amorite^H0567, and thy mother^H0517 an Hittite^H2850. ⁴And as for thy nativity^H4138, in the day^H3117 thou wast born^H3205 thy navel^H8270 was not cut^H3772, neither wast thou washed^H7364 in water^H4325 to supple^H4935 thee; thou wast not salted^H4414 at all^H4414, nor swaddled^H2853 at all^H2853. ⁵None eye^H5869 pitied^H2347 thee, to do^H6213 any^H0259 of these unto thee, to have compassion^H2550 upon thee; but thou wast cast out^H7993 in the open^H6440 field^H7704, to the lothing^H1604 of thy person^H5315, in the day^H3117 that thou wast born^H3205.

⁶And when I passed^H5674 by thee, and saw^H7200 thee polluted^H0947 in thine own blood^H1818, I said^H0559 unto thee when thou wast in thy blood^H1818, Live^H2421; yea, I said^H0559 unto thee when thou wast in thy blood^H1818, Live^H2421. ⁷I have caused^H5414 thee to multiply^H7233 as the bud^H6780 of the field^H7704, and thou hast increased^H7235 and waxen great^H1431, and thou art come^H0935 to excellent^H5716 ornaments^H5716: thy breasts^H7699 are fashioned^H3559, and thine hair^H8181 is grown^H6779, whereas thou wast naked^H5903 and bare^H6181. ⁸Now when I passed^H5674 by thee, and looked^H7200 upon thee, behold, thy time^H6256 was the time^H6256 of love^H1730; and I spread^H6566 my skirt^H3671 over thee, and covered^H3680 thy nakedness^H6172: yea, I sware^H7650 unto thee, and entered^H0935 into a covenant^H1285 with thee, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, and thou becamest mine. ⁹Then washed^H7364 I thee with water^H4325; yea, I throughly washed away^H7857 thy blood^H1818 from thee, and I anointed^H5480 thee with oil^H8081. ¹⁰I clothed^H3847 thee also with broidered work^H7553, and shod^H5274 thee with badgersskin^H8476, and I girded^H2280 thee about with fine linen^H8336, and I covered^H3680 thee with silk^H4897. ¹¹I decked^H5710 thee also with ornaments^H5716, and I put^H5414 bracelets^H6781 upon thy hands^H3027, and a chain^H7242 on thy neck^H1627. ¹²And I put^H5414 a jewel^H5141 on thy forehead^H0639, and earrings^H5694 in thine ears^H0241, and a beautiful^H8597 crown^H5850 upon thine head^H7218. ¹³Thus wast thou decked^H5710 with gold^H2091 and silver^H3701; and thy raiment^H4403 was of fine linen^H8336, and silk^H4897, and broidered work^H7553; thou didst eat^H0398 fine flour^H5560, and honey^H1706, and oil^H8081: and thou wast exceeding^H3966 beautiful^H3302, and thou didst prosper^H6743 into a kingdom^H4410. ¹⁴And thy renown^H8034 went forth^H3318 among the heathen^H1471 for thy beauty^H3308: for it was perfect^H3632 through my comeliness^H1926, which I had put^H7760 upon thee, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

¹⁵But thou didst trust^H0982 in thine own beauty^H3308, and playedst the harlot^H2181 because of thy renown^H8034, and pouredst out^H8210 thy fornications^H8457 on every one that passed by^H5674; his it was. ¹⁶And of thy garments^H0899 thou didst take^H3947, and deckedst^H6213 thy high places^H1116 with divers colours^H2921, and playedst the harlot^H2181 thereupon: the like things shall not come^H0935, neither shall it be so . ¹⁷Thou hast also taken^H3947 thy fair^H8597 jewels^H3627 of my gold^H2091 and of my silver^H3701, which I had given^H5414 thee, and madest^H6213 to thyself images^H6754 of men^H2145, and didst commit whoredom^H2181 with them, ¹⁸And tookest^H3947 thy broidered^H7553 garments^H0899, and coveredst^H3680 them: and thou hast set^H5414 mine oil^H8081 and mine incense^H7004 before^H6440 them. ¹⁹My meat^H3899 also which I gave^H5414 thee, fine flour^H5560, and oil^H8081, and honey^H1706, wherewith I fed^H0398 thee, thou hast even set^H5414 it before^H6440 them for a sweet^H5207 savour^H7381: and thus it was, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ²⁰Moreover thou hast taken^H3947 thy sons^H1121 and thy daughters^H1323, whom thou hast borne^H3205 unto me, and these hast thou sacrificed^H2076 unto them to be devoured^H0398. Is this of thy whoredoms^H8457 a small matter^H4592, ²¹That thou hast slain^H7819 my children^H1121, and delivered^H5414 them to cause them to pass through^H5674 the fire for them? ²²And in all thine abominations^H8441 and thy whoredoms^H8457 thou hast not remembered^H2142 the days^H3117 of thy youth^H5271, when thou wast naked^H5903 and bare^H6181, and wast polluted^H0947 in thy blood^H1818. ²³And it came to pass after^H0310 all thy wickedness^H7451, (woe^H0188, woe^H0188 unto thee! saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069;) ²⁴ That thou hast also built^H1129 unto thee an eminent place^H1354, and hast made^H6213 thee an high place^H7413 in every street^H7339. ²⁵Thou hast built^H1129 thy high place^H7413 at every head^H7218 of the way^H1870, and hast made thy beauty^H3308 to be abhorred^H8581, and hast opened^H6589 thy feet^H7272 to every one that passed by^H5674, and multiplied^H7235 thy whoredoms^H8457. ²⁶Thou hast also committed fornication^H2181 with the Egyptians^H1121 thy neighbours^H7934, great^H1432 of flesh^H1320; and hast increased^H7235 thy whoredoms^H8457, to provoke me to anger^H3707. ²⁷Behold, therefore I have stretched out^H5186 my hand^H3027 over thee, and have diminished^H1639 thine ordinary^H2706 food , and delivered^H5414 thee unto the will^H5315 of them that hate^H8130 thee, the daughters^H1323 of the Philistines^H6430, which are ashamed^H3637 of thy lewd^H2154 way^H1870. ²⁸Thou hast played the whore^H2181 also with the Assyrians^H1121, because^H1115 thou wast unsatiable^H7646; yea, thou hast played the harlot^H2181 with them, and yet couldest not be satisfied^H7654. ²⁹Thou hast moreover multiplied^H7235 thy fornication^H8457 in the land^H0776 of Canaan^H3667 unto Chaldea^H3778; and yet thou wast not satisfied^H7646 herewith^H2063. ³⁰How weak^H0535 is thine heart^H3826, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, seeing thou doest^H6213 all these things , the work^H4639 of an imperious^H7986 whorish^H2181 woman^H0802; ³¹In that thou buildest^H1129 thine eminent place^H1354 in the head^H7218 of every way^H1870, and makest^H6213 thine high place^H7413 in every street^H7339; and hast not been as an harlot^H2181, in that thou scornest^H7046 hire^H0868; ³² But as a wife^H0802 that committeth adultery^H5003, which taketh^H3947 strangers^H2114 instead of her husband^H0376! ³³They give^H5414 gifts^H5078 to all whores^H2181: but thou givest^H5414 thy gifts^H5083 to all thy lovers^H0157, and hirest^H7809 them, that they may come^H0935 unto thee on every side^H5439 for thy whoredom^H8457. ³⁴And the contrary^H2016 is in thee from other women^H0802 in thy whoredoms^H8457, whereas none followeth^H0310 thee to commit whoredoms^H2181: and in that thou givest^H5414 a reward^H0868, and no reward^H0868 is given^H5414 unto thee, therefore thou art^H1961 contrary^H2016.

³⁵Wherefore, O harlot^H2181, hear^H8085 the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068: ³⁶Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Because thy filthiness^H5178 was poured out^H8210, and thy nakedness^H6172 discovered^H1540 through thy whoredoms^H8457 with thy lovers^H0157, and with all the idols^H1544 of thy abominations^H8441, and by the blood^H1818 of thy children^H1121, which thou didst give^H5414 unto them; ³⁷Behold, therefore I will gather^H6908 all thy lovers^H0157, with whom thou hast taken pleasure^H6149, and all them that thou hast loved^H0157, with all them that thou hast hated^H8130; I will even gather^H6908 them round about^H5439 against thee, and will discover^H1540 thy nakedness^H6172 unto them, that they may see^H7200 all thy nakedness^H6172. ³⁸And I will judge^H8199 thee, as women that break wedlock^H5003 and shed^H8210 blood^H1818 are judged^H4941; and I will give^H5414 thee blood^H1818 in fury^H2534 and jealousy^H7068. ³⁹And I will also give^H5414 thee into their hand^H3027, and they shall throw down^H2040 thine eminent place^H1354, and shall break down^H5422 thy high places^H7413: they shall strip^H6584 thee also of thy clothes^H0899, and shall take^H3947 thy fair^H8597 jewels^H3627, and leave^H3240 thee naked^H5903 and bare^H6181. ⁴⁰They shall also bring up^H5927 a company^H6951 against thee, and they shall stone^H7275 thee with stones^H0068, and thrust thee through^H1333 with their swords^H2719. ⁴¹And they shall burn^H8313 thine houses^H1004 with fire^H0784, and execute^H6213 judgments^H8201 upon thee in the sight^H5869 of many^H7227 women^H0802: and I will cause thee to cease^H7673 from playing the harlot^H2181, and thou also shalt give^H5414 no hire^H0868 any more. ⁴²So will I make my fury^H2534 toward thee to rest^H5117, and my jealousy^H7068 shall depart^H5493 from thee, and I will be quiet^H8252, and will be no more angry^H3707. ⁴³Because thou hast not remembered^H2142 the days^H3117 of thy youth^H5271, but hast fretted^H7264 me in all these things; behold^H1887, therefore I also will recompense^H5414 thy way^H1870 upon thine head^H7218, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069: and thou shalt not commit^H6213 this lewdness^H2154 above all thine abominations^H8441.

⁴⁴Behold, every one that useth proverbs^H4911 shall use this proverb^H4911 against thee, saying^H0559, As is the mother^H0517, so is her daughter^H1323. ⁴⁵Thou art thy mothers^H0517 daughter^H1323, that lotheth^H1602 her husband^H0376 and her children^H1121; and thou art the sister^H0269 of thy sisters^H0269, which lothed^H1602 their husbands^H0582 and their children^H1121: your mother^H0517 was an Hittite^H2850, and your father^H0001 an Amorite^H0567. ⁴⁶And thine elder^H1419 sister^H0269 is Samaria^H8111, she and her daughters^H1323 that dwell^H3427 at thy left hand^H8040: and thy younger^H6996 sister^H0269, that dwelleth^H3427 at thy right hand^H3225, is Sodom^H5467 and her daughters^H1323. ⁴⁷Yet hast thou not walked^H1980 after their ways^H1870, nor done^H6213 after their abominations^H8441: but, as if that were a very^H6985 little^H4592 thing , thou wast corrupted^H7843 more than they^H2004 in all thy ways^H1870. ⁴⁸ As I live^H2416, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, Sodom^H5467 thy sister^H0269 hath not done^H6213, she nor her daughters^H1323, as thou hast done^H6213, thou and thy daughters^H1323. ⁴⁹Behold, this was the iniquity^H5771 of thy sister^H0269 Sodom^H5467, pride^H1347, fulness^H7653 of bread^H3899, and abundance^H7962 of idleness^H8252 was in her and in her daughters^H1323, neither did she strengthen^H2388 the hand^H3027 of the poor^H6041 and needy^H0034. ⁵⁰And they were haughty^H1361, and committed^H6213 abomination^H8441 before^H6440 me: therefore I took them away^H5493 as I saw^H7200 good . ⁵¹Neither hath Samaria^H8111 committed^H2398 half^H2677 of thy sins^H2403; but thou hast multiplied^H7235 thine abominations^H8441 more than they^H2007, and hast justified^H6663 thy sisters^H0269 in all thine abominations^H8441 which thou hast done^H6213. ⁵²Thou also, which hast judged^H6419 thy sisters^H0269, bear^H5375 thine own shame^H3639 for thy sins^H2403 that thou hast committed more abominable^H8581 than they^H2004: they are more righteous^H6663 than thou: yea, be thou confounded^H0954 also, and bear^H5375 thy shame^H3639, in that thou hast justified^H6663 thy sisters^H0269. ⁵³When I shall bring again^H7725 their captivity^H7622, the captivity^H7622 of Sodom^H5467 and her daughters^H1323, and the captivity^H7622 of Samaria^H8111 and her daughters^H1323, then will I bring again the captivity^H7622 of thy captives^H7622 in the midst^H8432 of them: ⁵⁴That thou mayest bear^H5375 thine own shame^H3639, and mayest be confounded^H3637 in all that thou hast done^H6213, in that thou art a comfort^H5162 unto them. ⁵⁵When thy sisters^H0269, Sodom^H5467 and her daughters^H1323, shall return^H7725 to their former estate^H6927, and Samaria^H8111 and her daughters^H1323 shall return^H7725 to their former estate^H6927, then thou and thy daughters^H1323 shall return^H7725 to your former estate^H6927. ⁵⁶For thy sister^H0269 Sodom^H5467 was not mentioned^H8052 by thy mouth^H6310 in the day^H3117 of thy pride^H1347, ⁵⁷Before thy wickedness^H7451 was discovered^H1540, as at the time^H6256 of thy reproach^H2781 of the daughters^H1323 of Syria^H0758, and all that are round about^H5439 her, the daughters^H1323 of the Philistines^H6430, which despise^H7590 thee round about^H5439. ⁵⁸Thou hast borne^H5375 thy lewdness^H2154 and thine abominations^H8441, saith^H5002 the LORD^H3068. ⁵⁹For thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; I will even deal^H6213 with thee as thou hast done^H6213, which hast despised^H0959 the oath^H0423 in breaking^H6565 the covenant^H1285.

⁶⁰Nevertheless I will remember^H2142 my covenant^H1285 with thee in the days^H3117 of thy youth^H5271, and I will establish^H6965 unto thee an everlasting^H5769 covenant^H1285. ⁶¹Then thou shalt remember^H2142 thy ways^H1870, and be ashamed^H3637, when thou shalt receive^H3947 thy sisters^H0269, thine elder^H1419 and thy younger^H6996: and I will give^H5414 them unto thee for daughters^H1323, but not by thy covenant^H1285. ⁶²And I will establish^H6965 my covenant^H1285 with thee; and thou shalt know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068: ⁶³That thou mayest remember^H2142, and be confounded^H0954, and never open^H6610 thy mouth^H6310 any more because^H6440 of thy shame^H3639, when I am pacified^H3722 toward thee for all that thou hast done^H6213, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

¹And the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, put forth^H2330 a riddle^H2420, and speak^H4911 a parable^H4912 unto the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478; ³And say^H0559, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; A great^H1419 eagle^H5404 with great^H1419 wings^H3671, longwinged^H0083, full^H4392 of feathers^H5133, which had divers colours^H7553, came^H0935 unto Lebanon^H3844, and took^H3947 the highest branch^H6788 of the cedar^H0730: ⁴He cropped off^H6998 the top^H7218 of his young twigs^H3242, and carried^H0935 it into a land^H0776 of traffick^H3667; he set^H7760 it in a city^H5892 of merchants^H7402. ⁵He took^H3947 also of the seed^H2233 of the land^H0776, and planted^H5414 it in a fruitful^H2233 field^H7704; he placed^H3947 it by great^H7227 waters^H4325, and set^H7760 it as a willow tree^H6851. ⁶And it grew^H6779, and became a spreading^H5628 vine^H1612 of low^H8217 stature^H6967, whose branches^H1808 turned^H6437 toward him, and the roots^H8328 thereof were under him: so it became a vine^H1612, and brought forth^H6213 branches^H0905, and shot^H7971 forth sprigs^H6288. ⁷There was also another^H0259 great^H1419 eagle^H5404 with great^H1419 wings^H3671 and many^H7227 feathers^H5133: and, behold, this vine^H1612 did bend^H3719 her roots^H8328 toward him, and shot forth^H7971 her branches^H1808 toward him, that he might water^H8248 it by the furrows^H6170 of her plantation^H4302. ⁸It was planted^H8362 in a good^H2896 soil^H7704 by great^H7227 waters^H4325, that it might bring forth^H6213 branches^H6057, and that it might bear^H5375 fruit^H6529, that it might be a goodly^H0155 vine^H1612. ⁹Say^H0559 thou, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Shall it prosper^H6743? shall he not pull up^H5423 the roots^H8328 thereof, and cut off^H7082 the fruit^H6529 thereof, that it wither^H3001? it shall wither^H3001 in all the leaves^H2964 of her spring^H6780, even without great^H1419 power^H2220 or many^H7227 people^H5971 to pluck it up^H5375 by the roots^H8328 thereof. ¹⁰Yea, behold, being planted^H8362, shall it prosper^H6743? shall it not utterly^H3001 wither^H3001, when the east^H6921 wind^H7307 toucheth^H5060 it? it shall wither^H3001 in the furrows^H6170 where it grew^H6780.

¹¹Moreover the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ¹²Say^H0559 now to the rebellious^H4805 house^H1004, Know^H3045 ye not what these things mean ? tell^H0559 them , Behold, the king^H4428 of Babylon^H0894 is come^H0935 to Jerusalem^H3389, and hath taken^H3947 the king^H4428 thereof, and the princes^H8269 thereof, and led^H0935 them with him to Babylon^H0894; ¹³And hath taken^H3947 of the kings^H4410 seed^H2233, and made^H3772 a covenant^H1285 with him, and hath taken^H0935 an oath^H0423 of him: he hath also taken^H3947 the mighty^H0352 of the land^H0776: ¹⁴That the kingdom^H4467 might be base^H8217, that it might not lift itself up^H5375, but that by keeping^H8104 of his covenant^H1285 it might stand^H5975. ¹⁵But he rebelled^H4775 against him in sending^H7971 his ambassadors^H4397 into Egypt^H4714, that they might give^H5414 him horses^H5483 and much^H7227 people^H5971. Shall he prosper^H6743? shall he escape^H4422 that doeth^H6213 such things ? or shall he break^H6565 the covenant^H1285, and be delivered^H4422? ¹⁶ As I live^H2416, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, surely in the place^H4725 where the king^H4428 dwelleth that made him king^H4427, whose oath^H0423 he despised^H0959, and whose covenant^H1285 he brake^H6565, even with him in the midst^H8432 of Babylon^H0894 he shall die^H4191. ¹⁷Neither shall Pharaoh^H6547 with his mighty^H1419 army^H2428 and great^H7227 company^H6951 make^H6213 for him in the war^H4421, by casting up^H8210 mounts^H5550, and building^H1129 forts^H1785, to cut off^H3772 many^H7227 persons^H5315: ¹⁸Seeing he despised^H0959 the oath^H0423 by breaking^H6565 the covenant^H1285, when, lo, he had given^H5414 his hand^H3027, and hath done^H6213 all these things , he shall not escape^H4422. ¹⁹Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; As I live^H2416, surely mine oath^H0423 that he hath despised^H0959, and my covenant^H1285 that he hath broken^H6331, even it will I recompense^H5414 upon his own head^H7218. ²⁰And I will spread^H6566 my net^H7568 upon him, and he shall be taken^H8610 in my snare^H4686, and I will bring^H0935 him to Babylon^H0894, and will plead^H8199 with him there for his trespass^H4603 that he hath trespassed^H4604 against me. ²¹And all his fugitives^H4015 with all his bands^H0102 shall fall^H5307 by the sword^H2719, and they that remain^H7604 shall be scattered^H6566 toward all winds^H7307: and ye shall know^H3045 that I the LORD^H3068 have spoken^H1696 it .

²²Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; I will also take^H3947 of the highest branch^H6788 of the high^H7311 cedar^H0730, and will set^H5414 it; I will crop off^H6998 from the top^H7218 of his young twigs^H3127 a tender one^H7390, and will plant^H8362 it upon an high^H1364 mountain^H2022 and eminent^H8524: ²³In the mountain^H2022 of the height^H4791 of Israel^H3478 will I plant^H8362 it: and it shall bring forth^H5375 boughs^H6057, and bear^H6213 fruit^H6529, and be a goodly^H0117 cedar^H0730: and under it shall dwell^H7931 all fowl^H6833 of every wing^H3671; in the shadow^H6738 of the branches^H1808 thereof shall they dwell^H7931. ²⁴And all the trees^H6086 of the field^H7704 shall know^H3045 that I the LORD^H3068 have brought down^H8213 the high^H1364 tree^H6086, have exalted^H1361 the low^H8217 tree^H6086, have dried^H3001 up the green^H3892 tree^H6086, and have made the dry^H3002 tree^H6086 to flourish^H6524: I the LORD^H3068 have spoken^H1696 and have done^H6213 it .

Ezekiel: Chapter 18

¹The word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me again, saying^H0559, ²What mean ye, that ye use^H4911 this proverb^H4912 concerning the land^H0127 of Israel^H3478, saying^H0559, The fathers^H0001 have eaten^H0398 sour grapes^H1155, and the childrens^H1121 teeth^H8127 are set on edge^H6949? ³ As I live^H2416, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, ye shall not have occasion any more to use^H4911 this proverb^H4912 in Israel^H3478. ⁴Behold, all souls^H5315 are mine; as the soul^H5315 of the father^H0001, so also the soul^H5315 of the son^H1121 is mine: the soul^H5315 that sinneth^H2398, it shall die^H4191.

⁵But if a man^H0376 be just^H6662, and do^H6213 that which is lawful^H4941 and right^H6666, ⁶ And hath not eaten^H0398 upon the mountains^H2022, neither hath lifted up^H5375 his eyes^H5869 to the idols^H1544 of the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, neither hath defiled^H2930 his neighbours^H7453 wife^H0802, neither hath come near^H7126 to a menstruous^H5079 woman^H0802, ⁷And hath not oppressed^H3238 any^H0376, but hath restored^H7725 to the debtor^H2326 his pledge^H2258, hath spoiled^H1497 none by violence^H1500, hath given^H5414 his bread^H3899 to the hungry^H7457, and hath covered^H3680 the naked^H5903 with a garment^H0899; ⁸He that hath not given forth^H5414 upon usury^H5392, neither hath taken^H3947 any increase^H8636, that hath withdrawn^H7725 his hand^H3027 from iniquity^H5766, hath executed^H6213 true^H0571 judgment^H4941 between man^H0376 and man^H0376, ⁹Hath walked^H1980 in my statutes^H2708, and hath kept^H8104 my judgments^H4941, to deal^H6213 truly^H0571; he is just^H6662, he shall surely^H2421 live^H2421, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

¹⁰If he beget^H3205 a son^H1121 that is a robber^H6530, a shedder^H8210 of blood^H1818, and that doeth^H6213 the like^H0251 to any one^H0259 of these things , ¹¹And that doeth^H6213 not any of those duties , but even hath eaten^H0398 upon the mountains^H2022, and defiled^H2930 his neighbours^H7453 wife^H0802, ¹²Hath oppressed^H3238 the poor^H6041 and needy^H0034, hath spoiled^H1497 by violence^H1500, hath not restored^H7725 the pledge^H2258, and hath lifted up^H5375 his eyes^H5869 to the idols^H1544, hath committed^H6213 abomination^H8441, ¹³Hath given forth^H5414 upon usury^H5392, and hath taken^H3947 increase^H8636: shall he then live^H2425? he shall not live^H2421: he hath done^H6213 all these abominations^H8441; he shall surely^H4191 die^H4191; his blood^H1818 shall be upon him.

¹⁴Now, lo, if he beget^H3205 a son^H1121, that seeth^H7200 all his fathers^H0001 sins^H2403 which he hath done^H6213, and considereth^H7200, and doeth^H6213 not such like^H2004, ¹⁵ That hath not eaten^H0398 upon the mountains^H2022, neither hath lifted up^H5375 his eyes^H5869 to the idols^H1544 of the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, hath not defiled^H2930 his neighbours^H7453 wife^H0802, ¹⁶Neither hath oppressed^H3238 any^H0376, hath not withholden^H2254 the pledge^H2258, neither hath spoiled^H1497 by violence^H1500, but hath given^H5414 his bread^H3899 to the hungry^H7457, and hath covered^H3680 the naked^H5903 with a garment^H0899, ¹⁷ That hath taken off^H7725 his hand^H3027 from the poor^H6041, that hath not received^H3947 usury^H5392 nor increase^H8636, hath executed^H6213 my judgments^H4941, hath walked^H1980 in my statutes^H2708; he shall not die^H4191 for the iniquity^H5771 of his father^H0001, he shall surely^H2421 live^H2421. ¹⁸ As for his father^H0001, because he cruelly^H6233 oppressed^H6231, spoiled^H1497 his brother^H0251 by violence^H1499, and did^H6213 that which is not good^H2896 among^H8432 his people^H5971, lo, even he shall die^H4191 in his iniquity^H5771.

¹⁹Yet say^H0559 ye, Why? doth not the son^H1121 bear^H5375 the iniquity^H5771 of the father^H0001? When the son^H1121 hath done^H6213 that which is lawful^H4941 and right^H6666, and hath kept^H8104 all my statutes^H2708, and hath done^H6213 them, he shall surely^H2421 live^H2421. ²⁰The soul^H5315 that sinneth^H2398, it shall die^H4191. The son^H1121 shall not bear^H5375 the iniquity^H5771 of the father^H0001, neither shall the father^H0001 bear^H5375 the iniquity^H5771 of the son^H1121: the righteousness^H6666 of the righteous^H6662 shall be upon him, and the wickedness^H7564 of the wicked^H7563 shall be upon him.

²¹But if the wicked^H7563 will turn^H7725 from all his sins^H2403 that he hath committed^H6213, and keep^H8104 all my statutes^H2708, and do^H6213 that which is lawful^H4941 and right^H6666, he shall surely^H2421 live^H2421, he shall not die^H4191. ²²All his transgressions^H6588 that he hath committed^H6213, they shall not be mentioned^H2142 unto him: in his righteousness^H6666 that he hath done^H6213 he shall live^H2421. ²³Have I any pleasure^H2654 at all^H2654 that the wicked^H7563 should die^H4194? saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069: and not that he should return^H7725 from his ways^H1870, and live^H2421?

²⁴But when the righteous^H6662 turneth away^H7725 from his righteousness^H6666, and committeth^H6213 iniquity^H5766, and doeth^H6213 according to all the abominations^H8441 that the wicked^H7563 man doeth^H6213, shall he live^H2425? All his righteousness^H6666 that he hath done^H6213 shall not be mentioned^H2142: in his trespass^H4603 that he hath trespassed^H4604, and in his sin^H2403 that he hath sinned^H2398, in them shall he die^H4191.

²⁵Yet ye say^H0559, The way^H1870 of the Lord^H0136 is not equal^H8505. Hear^H8085 now, O house^H1004 of Israel^H3478; Is not my way^H1870 equal^H8505? are not your ways^H1870 unequal^H8505? ²⁶When a righteous^H6662 man turneth away^H7725 from his righteousness^H6666, and committeth^H6213 iniquity^H5766, and dieth^H4191 in them; for his iniquity^H5766 that he hath done^H6213 shall he die^H4191. ²⁷Again, when the wicked^H7563 man turneth away^H7725 from his wickedness^H7564 that he hath committed^H6213, and doeth^H6213 that which is lawful^H4941 and right^H6666, he shall save^H2421 his soul^H5315 alive^H2421. ²⁸Because he considereth^H7200, and turneth away^H7725 from all his transgressions^H6588 that he hath committed^H6213, he shall surely^H2421 live^H2421, he shall not die^H4191. ²⁹Yet saith^H0559 the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, The way^H1870 of the Lord^H0136 is not equal^H8505. O house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, are not my ways^H1870 equal^H8505? are not your ways^H1870 unequal^H8505?

³⁰Therefore I will judge^H8199 you, O house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, every one^H0376 according to his ways^H1870, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. Repent^H7725, and turn^H7725 yourselves from all your transgressions^H6588; so iniquity^H5771 shall not be your ruin^H4383.

³¹Cast away^H7993 from you all your transgressions^H6588, whereby ye have transgressed^H6586; and make^H6213 you a new^H2319 heart^H3820 and a new^H2319 spirit^H7307: for why will ye die^H4191, O house^H1004 of Israel^H3478? ³²For I have no pleasure^H2654 in the death^H4194 of him that dieth^H4191, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069: wherefore turn^H7725 yourselves , and live^H2421 ye.

Ezekiel: Chapter 19

¹Moreover take thou up^H5375 a lamentation^H7015 for the princes^H5387 of Israel^H3478, ²And say^H0559, What is thy mother^H0517? A lioness^H3833: she lay down^H7257 among lions^H0738, she nourished^H7235 her whelps^H1482 among^H8432 young lions^H3715. ³And she brought up^H5927 one^H0259 of her whelps^H1482: it became a young lion^H3715, and it learned^H3925 to catch^H2963 the prey^H2964; it devoured^H0398 men^H0120. ⁴The nations^H1471 also heard^H8085 of him; he was taken^H8610 in their pit^H7845, and they brought^H0935 him with chains^H2397 unto the land^H0776 of Egypt^H4714. ⁵Now when she saw^H7200 that she had waited^H3176, and her hope^H8615 was lost^H0006, then she took^H3947 another^H0259 of her whelps^H1482, and made^H7760 him a young lion^H3715. ⁶And he went up and down^H1980 among^H8432 the lions^H0738, he became a young lion^H3715, and learned^H3925 to catch^H2963 the prey^H2964, and devoured^H0398 men^H0120. ⁷And he knew^H3045 their desolate palaces^H0490, and he laid waste^H2717 their cities^H5892; and the land^H0776 was desolate^H3456, and the fulness^H4393 thereof, by the noise^H6963 of his roaring^H7581. ⁸Then the nations^H1471 set^H5414 against him on every side^H5439 from the provinces^H4082, and spread^H6566 their net^H7568 over him: he was taken^H8610 in their pit^H7845. ⁹And they put^H5414 him in ward^H5474 in chains^H2397, and brought^H0935 him to the king^H4428 of Babylon^H0894: they brought^H0935 him into holds^H4685, that his voice^H6963 should no more be heard^H8085 upon the mountains^H2022 of Israel^H3478.

¹⁰Thy mother^H0517 is like a vine^H1612 in thy blood^H1818, planted^H8362 by the waters^H4325: she was fruitful^H6509 and full of branches^H6058 by reason of many^H7227 waters^H4325. ¹¹And she had strong^H5797 rods^H4294 for the sceptres^H7626 of them that bare rule^H4910, and her stature^H6967 was exalted^H1361 among the thick branches^H5688, and she appeared^H7200 in her height^H1363 with the multitude^H7230 of her branches^H1808. ¹²But she was plucked up^H5428 in fury^H2534, she was cast down^H7993 to the ground^H0776, and the east^H6921 wind^H7307 dried up^H3001 her fruit^H6529: her strong^H5797 rods^H4294 were broken^H6561 and withered^H3001; the fire^H0784 consumed^H0398 them. ¹³And now she is planted^H8362 in the wilderness^H4057, in a dry^H6723 and thirsty^H6772 ground^H0776. ¹⁴And fire^H0784 is gone out^H3318 of a rod^H4294 of her branches^H0905, which hath devoured^H0398 her fruit^H6529, so that she hath no strong^H5797 rod^H4294 to be a sceptre^H7626 to rule^H4910. This is a lamentation^H7015, and shall be for a lamentation^H7015.

¹And it came to pass in the seventh^H7637 year^H8141, in the fifth^H2549 month , the tenth^H6218 day of the month^H2320, that certain^H0582 of the elders^H2205 of Israel^H3478 came^H0935 to enquire^H1875 of the LORD^H3068, and sat^H3427 before^H6440 me. ²Then came the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 unto me, saying^H0559, ³Son^H1121 of man^H0120, speak^H1696 unto the elders^H2205 of Israel^H3478, and say^H0559 unto them, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Are ye come^H0935 to enquire^H1875 of me?

⁵And say^H0559 unto them, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; In the day^H3117 when I chose^H0977 Israel^H3478, and lifted up^H5375 mine hand^H3027 unto the seed^H2233 of the house^H1004 of Jacob^H3290, and made myself known^H3045 unto them in the land^H0776 of Egypt^H4714, when I lifted^H5375 up mine hand^H3027 unto them, saying^H0559, I am the LORD^H3068 your God^H0430; ⁶In the day^H3117 that I lifted up^H5375 mine hand^H3027 unto them, to bring them forth^H3318 of the land^H0776 of Egypt^H4714 into a land^H0776 that I had espied^H8446 for them, flowing^H2100 with milk^H2461 and honey^H1706, which is the glory^H6643 of all lands^H0776: ⁷Then said^H0559 I unto them, Cast ye away^H7993 every man^H0376 the abominations^H8251 of his eyes^H5869, and defile^H2930 not yourselves with the idols^H1544 of Egypt^H4714: I am the LORD^H3068 your God^H0430. ⁸But they rebelled^H4784 against me, and would^H0014 not hearken^H8085 unto me: they did not every man^H0376 cast away^H7993 the abominations^H8251 of their eyes^H5869, neither did they forsake^H5800 the idols^H1544 of Egypt^H4714: then I said^H0559, I will pour out^H8210 my fury^H2534 upon them, to accomplish^H3615 my anger^H0639 against them in the midst^H8432 of the land^H0776 of Egypt^H4714. ⁹But I wrought^H6213 for my names^H8034 sake, that it should not be polluted^H2490 before^H5869 the heathen^H1471, among^H8432 whom they were , in whose sight^H5869 I made myself known^H3045 unto them, in bringing them forth^H3318 out of the land^H0776 of Egypt^H4714.

¹⁰Wherefore I caused them to go forth^H3318 out of the land^H0776 of Egypt^H4714, and brought^H0935 them into the wilderness^H4057. ¹¹And I gave^H5414 them my statutes^H2708, and shewed^H3045 them my judgments^H4941, which if a man^H0120 do^H6213, he shall even live^H2425 in them. ¹²Moreover also I gave^H5414 them my sabbaths^H7676, to be a sign^H0226 between me and them, that they might know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068 that sanctify^H6942 them. ¹³But the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 rebelled^H4784 against me in the wilderness^H4057: they walked^H1980 not in my statutes^H2708, and they despised^H3988 my judgments^H4941, which if a man^H0120 do^H6213, he shall even live^H2425 in them; and my sabbaths^H7676 they greatly^H3966 polluted^H2490: then I said^H0559, I would pour out^H8210 my fury^H2534 upon them in the wilderness^H4057, to consume^H3615 them. ¹⁴But I wrought^H6213 for my names^H8034 sake, that it should not be polluted^H2490 before^H5869 the heathen^H1471, in whose sight^H5869 I brought them out^H3318. ¹⁵Yet also I lifted up^H5375 my hand^H3027 unto them in the wilderness^H4057, that I would not bring^H0935 them into the land^H0776 which I had given^H5414 them , flowing^H2100 with milk^H2461 and honey^H1706, which is the glory^H6643 of all lands^H0776; ¹⁶Because they despised^H3988 my judgments^H4941, and walked^H1980 not in my statutes^H2708, but polluted^H2490 my sabbaths^H7676: for their heart^H3820 went^H1980 after^H0310 their idols^H1544. ¹⁷Nevertheless mine eye^H5869 spared^H2347 them from destroying^H7843 them, neither did I make^H6213 an end^H3617 of them in the wilderness^H4057. ¹⁸But I said^H0559 unto their children^H1121 in the wilderness^H4057, Walk^H3212 ye not in the statutes^H2706 of your fathers^H0001, neither observe^H8104 their judgments^H4941, nor defile^H2930 yourselves with their idols^H1544: ¹⁹I am the LORD^H3068 your God^H0430; walk^H3212 in my statutes^H2708, and keep^H8104 my judgments^H4941, and do^H6213 them; ²⁰And hallow^H6942 my sabbaths^H7676; and they shall be a sign^H0226 between me and you, that ye may know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068 your God^H0430. ²¹Notwithstanding the children^H1121 rebelled^H4784 against me: they walked^H1980 not in my statutes^H2708, neither kept^H8104 my judgments^H4941 to do^H6213 them, which if a man^H0120 do^H6213, he shall even live^H2425 in them; they polluted^H2490 my sabbaths^H7676: then I said^H0559, I would pour out^H8210 my fury^H2534 upon them, to accomplish^H3615 my anger^H0639 against them in the wilderness^H4057. ²²Nevertheless I withdrew^H7725 mine hand^H3027, and wrought^H6213 for my names^H8034 sake, that it should not be polluted^H2490 in the sight^H5869 of the heathen^H1471, in whose sight^H5869 I brought them forth^H3318. ²³I lifted up^H5375 mine hand^H3027 unto them also in the wilderness^H4057, that I would scatter^H6327 them among the heathen^H1471, and disperse^H2219 them through the countries^H0776; ²⁴Because they had not executed^H6213 my judgments^H4941, but had despised^H3988 my statutes^H2708, and had polluted^H2490 my sabbaths^H7676, and their eyes^H5869 were after^H0310 their fathers^H0001 idols^H1544. ²⁵Wherefore I gave^H5414 them also statutes^H2706 that were not good^H2896, and judgments^H4941 whereby they should not live^H2421; ²⁶And I polluted^H2930 them in their own gifts^H4979, in that they caused to pass through^H5674 the fire all that openeth^H6363 the womb^H7356, that I might make them desolate^H8074, to the end that they might know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068.

²⁷Therefore, son^H1121 of man^H0120, speak^H1696 unto the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, and say^H0559 unto them, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Yet in this your fathers^H0001 have blasphemed^H1442 me, in that they have committed^H4603 a trespass^H4604 against me. ²⁸ For when I had brought^H0935 them into the land^H0776, for the which I lifted up^H5375 mine hand^H3027 to give^H5414 it to them, then they saw^H7200 every high^H7311 hill^H1389, and all the thick^H5687 trees^H6086, and they offered^H2076 there their sacrifices^H2077, and there they presented^H5414 the provocation^H3708 of their offering^H7133: there also they made^H7760 their sweet^H5207 savour^H7381, and poured out^H5258 there their drink offerings^H5262. ²⁹Then I said^H0559 unto them, What is the high place^H1116 whereunto ye go^H0935? And the name^H8034 thereof is called^H7121 Bamah^H1117 unto this day^H3117. ³⁰Wherefore say^H0559 unto the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Are ye polluted^H2930 after the manner^H1870 of your fathers^H0001? and commit ye whoredom^H2181 after^H0310 their abominations^H8251? ³¹For when ye offer^H5375 your gifts^H4979, when ye make your sons^H1121 to pass through^H5674 the fire^H0784, ye pollute^H2930 yourselves with all your idols^H1544, even unto this day^H3117: and shall I be enquired^H1875 of by you, O house^H1004 of Israel^H3478? As I live^H2416, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, I will not be enquired^H1875 of by you. ³²And that which cometh^H5927 into your mind^H7307 shall not be at all, that ye say^H0559, We will be^H1961 as the heathen^H1471, as the families^H4940 of the countries^H0776, to serve^H8334 wood^H6086 and stone^H0068.

³³ As I live^H2416, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, surely with a mighty^H2389 hand^H3027, and with a stretched out^H5186 arm^H2220, and with fury^H2534 poured out^H8210, will I rule^H4427 over you: ³⁴And I will bring you out^H3318 from the people^H5971, and will gather^H6908 you out of the countries^H0776 wherein ye are scattered^H6327, with a mighty^H2389 hand^H3027, and with a stretched out^H5186 arm^H2220, and with fury^H2534 poured out^H8210. ³⁵And I will bring^H0935 you into the wilderness^H4057 of the people^H5971, and there will I plead^H8199 with you face^H6440 to face^H6440. ³⁶Like as I pleaded^H8199 with your fathers^H0001 in the wilderness^H4057 of the land^H0776 of Egypt^H4714, so will I plead^H8199 with you, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ³⁷And I will cause you to pass^H5674 under the rod^H7626, and I will bring^H0935 you into the bond^H4562 of the covenant^H1285: ³⁸And I will purge out^H1305 from among you the rebels^H4775, and them that transgress^H6586 against me: I will bring them forth^H3318 out of the country^H0776 where they sojourn^H4033, and they shall not enter^H0935 into the land^H0127 of Israel^H3478: and ye shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068. ³⁹As for you, O house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Go^H3212 ye, serve^H5647 ye every one^H0376 his idols^H1544, and hereafter^H0310 also , if ye will not hearken^H8085 unto me: but pollute^H2490 ye my holy^H6944 name^H8034 no more with your gifts^H4979, and with your idols^H1544. ⁴⁰For in mine holy^H6944 mountain^H2022, in the mountain^H2022 of the height^H4791 of Israel^H3478, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, there shall all the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, all of them in the land^H0776, serve^H5647 me: there will I accept^H7521 them, and there will I require^H1875 your offerings^H8641, and the firstfruits^H7225 of your oblations^H4864, with all your holy things^H6944. ⁴¹I will accept^H7521 you with your sweet^H5207 savour^H7381, when I bring you out^H3318 from the people^H5971, and gather^H6908 you out of the countries^H0776 wherein ye have been scattered^H6327; and I will be sanctified^H6942 in you before^H5869 the heathen^H1471. ⁴²And ye shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068, when I shall bring^H0935 you into the land^H0127 of Israel^H3478, into the country^H0776 for the which I lifted up^H5375 mine hand^H3027 to give^H5414 it to your fathers^H0001. ⁴³And there shall ye remember^H2142 your ways^H1870, and all your doings^H5949, wherein ye have been defiled^H2930; and ye shall lothe^H6962 yourselves in your own sight^H6440 for all your evils^H7451 that ye have committed^H6213. ⁴⁴And ye shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068, when I have wrought^H6213 with you for my names^H8034 sake, not according to your wicked^H7451 ways^H1870, nor according to your corrupt^H7843 doings^H5949, O ye house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

⁴⁵Moreover the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ⁴⁶Son^H1121 of man^H0120, set^H7760 thy face^H6440 toward^H1870 the south^H8486, and drop^H5197 thy word toward the south^H1864, and prophesy^H5012 against the forest^H3293 of the south^H5045 field^H7704; ⁴⁷And say^H0559 to the forest^H3293 of the south^H5045, Hear^H8085 the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068; Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I will kindle^H3341 a fire^H0784 in thee, and it shall devour^H0398 every green^H3892 tree^H6086 in thee, and every dry^H3002 tree^H6086: the flaming^H3852 flame^H7957 shall not be quenched^H3518, and all faces^H6440 from the south^H5045 to the north^H6828 shall be burned^H6866 therein. ⁴⁸And all flesh^H1320 shall see^H7200 that I the LORD^H3068 have kindled^H1197 it: it shall not be quenched^H3518. ⁴⁹Then said^H0559 I, Ah^H0162 Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069! they say^H0559 of me, Doth he not speak^H4911 parables^H4912?

Ezekiel: Chapter 21

¹And the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, set^H7760 thy face^H6440 toward Jerusalem^H3389, and drop^H5197 thy word toward the holy places^H4720, and prophesy^H5012 against the land^H0127 of Israel^H3478, ³And say^H0559 to the land^H0127 of Israel^H3478, Thus saith^H0559 the LORD^H3068; Behold, I am against thee, and will draw forth^H3318 my sword^H2719 out of his sheath^H8593, and will cut off^H3772 from thee the righteous^H6662 and the wicked^H7563. ⁴Seeing^H3282 then that I will cut off^H3772 from thee the righteous^H6662 and the wicked^H7563, therefore shall my sword^H2719 go forth^H3318 out of his sheath^H8593 against all flesh^H1320 from the south^H5045 to the north^H6828: ⁵That all flesh^H1320 may know^H3045 that I the LORD^H3068 have drawn forth^H3318 my sword^H2719 out of his sheath^H8593: it shall not return^H7725 any more. ⁶Sigh^H0584 therefore, thou son^H1121 of man^H0120, with the breaking^H7670 of thy loins^H4975; and with bitterness^H4814 sigh^H0584 before their eyes^H5869. ⁷And it shall be, when they say^H0559 unto thee, Wherefore sighest^H0584 thou? that thou shalt answer^H0559, For the tidings^H8052; because it cometh^H0935: and every heart^H3820 shall melt^H4549, and all hands^H3027 shall be feeble^H7503, and every spirit^H7307 shall faint^H3543, and all knees^H1290 shall be weak^H3212 as water^H4325: behold, it cometh^H0935, and shall be brought to pass^H1961, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

⁸Again the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ⁹Son^H1121 of man^H0120, prophesy^H5012, and say^H0559, Thus saith^H0559 the LORD^H3068; Say^H0559, A sword^H2719, a sword^H2719 is sharpened^H2300, and also furbished^H4803: ¹⁰It is sharpened^H2300 to make a sore^H2874 slaughter^H2873; it is furbished^H4178 that it may glitter^H1300: should^H0176 we then make mirth^H7797? it contemneth^H3988 the rod^H7626 of my son^H1121, as every tree^H6086. ¹¹And he hath given^H5414 it to be furbished^H4803, that it may be handled^H3709: this sword^H2719 is sharpened^H2300, and it is furbished^H4178, to give^H5414 it into the hand^H3027 of the slayer^H2026. ¹²Cry^H2199 and howl^H3213, son^H1121 of man^H0120: for it shall be upon my people^H5971, it shall be upon all the princes^H5387 of Israel^H3478: terrors^H4048 by reason of^H0413 the sword^H2719 shall be upon my people^H5971: smite^H5606 therefore upon thy thigh^H3409. ¹³Because it is a trial^H0974, and what if the sword contemn^H3988 even the rod^H7626? it shall be no more , saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ¹⁴Thou therefore, son^H1121 of man^H0120, prophesy^H5012, and smite^H5221 thine hands^H3709 together^H5221, and let the sword^H2719 be doubled^H3717 the third^H7992 time, the sword^H2719 of the slain^H2491: it is the sword^H2719 of the great^H1419 men that are slain^H2491, which entereth into their privy chambers^H2314. ¹⁵I have set^H5414 the point^H0019 of the sword^H2719 against all their gates^H8179, that their heart^H3820 may faint^H4127, and their ruins^H4383 be multiplied^H7235: ah^H0253! it is made^H6213 bright^H1300, it is wrapped up^H4593 for the slaughter^H2874. ¹⁶Go thee one way or other^H0258, either on^H7760 the right hand^H3231, or on the left^H8041, whithersoever^H0575 thy face^H6440 is set^H3259. ¹⁷I will also smite^H5221 mine hands^H3709 together^H3709, and I will cause my fury^H2534 to rest^H5117: I the LORD^H3068 have said^H1696 it .

¹⁸The word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me again, saying^H0559, ¹⁹Also, thou son^H1121 of man^H0120, appoint^H7760 thee two^H8147 ways^H1870, that the sword^H2719 of the king^H4428 of Babylon^H0894 may come^H0935: both twain^H8147 shall come forth^H3318 out of one^H0259 land^H0776: and choose^H1254 thou a place^H3027, choose^H1254 it at the head^H7218 of the way^H1870 to the city^H5892. ²⁰Appoint^H7760 a way^H1870, that the sword^H2719 may come^H0935 to Rabbath^H7237 of the Ammonites^H1121, and to Judah^H3063 in Jerusalem^H3389 the defenced^H1219. ²¹For the king^H4428 of Babylon^H0894 stood^H5975 at the parting^H0517 of the way^H1870, at the head^H7218 of the two^H8147 ways^H1870, to use^H7080 divination^H7081: he made his arrows^H2671 bright^H7043, he consulted^H7592 with images^H8655, he looked^H7200 in the liver^H3516. ²²At his right hand^H3225 was the divination^H7081 for Jerusalem^H3389, to appoint^H7760 captains^H3733, to open^H6605 the mouth^H6310 in the slaughter^H7524, to lift up^H7311 the voice^H6963 with shouting^H8643, to appoint^H7760 battering rams^H3733 against the gates^H8179, to cast^H8210 a mount^H5550, and to build^H1129 a fort^H1785. ²³And it shall be unto them as a false^H7723 divination^H7080 in their sight^H5869, to them that have sworn^H7650 oaths^H7621: but he will call to remembrance^H2142 the iniquity^H5771, that they may be taken^H8610. ²⁴Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Because ye have made your iniquity^H5771 to be remembered^H2142, in that your transgressions^H6588 are discovered^H1540, so that in all your doings^H5949 your sins^H2403 do appear^H7200; because, I say , that ye are come to remembrance^H2142, ye shall be taken^H8610 with the hand^H3709.

²⁵And thou, profane^H2491 wicked^H7563 prince^H5387 of Israel^H3478, whose day^H3117 is come^H0935, when^H6256 iniquity^H5771 shall have an end^H7093, ²⁶Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Remove^H5493 the diadem^H4701, and take off^H7311 the crown^H5850: this shall not be the same^H2063: exalt^H1361 him that is low^H8217, and abase^H8213 him that is high^H1364. ²⁷I will overturn^H5754, overturn^H5754, overturn^H5754, it: and it shall be^H7760 no more , until he come^H0935 whose right^H4941 it is; and I will give^H5414 it him .

²⁸And thou, son^H1121 of man^H0120, prophesy^H5012 and say^H0559, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069 concerning the Ammonites^H1121, and concerning their reproach^H2781; even say^H0559 thou, The sword^H2719, the sword^H2719 is drawn^H6605: for the slaughter^H2874 it is furbished^H4803, to consume^H0398 because of the glittering^H1300: ²⁹Whiles they see^H2372 vanity^H7723 unto thee, whiles they divine^H7080 a lie^H3577 unto thee, to bring^H5414 thee upon the necks^H6677 of them that are slain^H2491, of the wicked^H7563, whose day^H3117 is come^H0935, when^H6256 their iniquity^H5771 shall have an end^H7093. ³⁰Shall I cause it to return^H7725 into his sheath^H8593? I will judge^H8199 thee in the place^H4725 where thou wast created^H1254, in the land^H0776 of thy nativity^H4351. ³¹And I will pour out^H8210 mine indignation^H2195 upon thee, I will blow^H6315 against thee in the fire^H0784 of my wrath^H5678, and deliver^H5414 thee into the hand^H3027 of brutish^H1197 men^H0582, and skilful^H2796 to destroy^H4889. ³²Thou shalt be for fuel^H0402 to the fire^H0784; thy blood^H1818 shall be in the midst^H8432 of the land^H0776; thou shalt be no more remembered^H2142: for I the LORD^H3068 have spoken^H1696 it .

Ezekiel: Chapter 22

¹Moreover the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²Now, thou son^H1121 of man^H0120, wilt thou judge^H8199, wilt thou judge^H8199 the bloody^H1818 city^H5892? yea, thou shalt shew^H3045 her all her abominations^H8441. ³Then say^H0559 thou, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, The city^H5892 sheddeth^H8210 blood^H1818 in the midst^H8432 of it, that her time^H6256 may come^H0935, and maketh^H6213 idols^H1544 against herself to defile^H2930 herself. ⁴Thou art become guilty^H0816 in thy blood^H1818 that thou hast shed^H8210; and hast defiled^H2930 thyself in thine idols^H1544 which thou hast made^H6213; and thou hast caused thy days^H3117 to draw near^H7126, and art come^H0935 even unto thy years^H8141: therefore have I made^H5414 thee a reproach^H2781 unto the heathen^H1471, and a mocking^H7048 to all countries^H0776. ⁵ Those that be near^H7138, and those that be far^H7350 from thee, shall mock^H7046 thee, which art infamous^H2931 and much^H7227 vexed^H4103. ⁶Behold, the princes^H5387 of Israel^H3478, every one^H0376 were in thee to their power^H2220 to shed^H8210 blood^H1818. ⁷In thee have they set light^H7043 by father^H0001 and mother^H0517: in the midst^H8432 of thee have they dealt^H6213 by oppression^H6233 with the stranger^H1616: in thee have they vexed^H3238 the fatherless^H3490 and the widow^H0490. ⁸Thou hast despised^H0959 mine holy things^H6944, and hast profaned^H2490 my sabbaths^H7676. ⁹In thee are men^H0582 that carry tales^H7400 to shed^H8210 blood^H1818: and in thee they eat^H0398 upon the mountains^H2022: in the midst^H8432 of thee they commit^H6213 lewdness^H2154. ¹⁰In thee have they discovered^H1540 their fathers^H0001 nakedness^H6172: in thee have they humbled^H6031 her that was set apart^H5079 for pollution^H2931. ¹¹And one^H0376 hath committed^H6213 abomination^H8441 with his neighbours^H7453 wife^H0802; and another^H0376 hath lewdly^H2154 defiled^H2930 his daughter in law^H3618; and another^H0376 in thee hath humbled^H6031 his sister^H0269, his fathers^H0001 daughter^H1323. ¹²In thee have they taken^H3947 gifts^H7810 to shed^H8210 blood^H1818; thou hast taken^H3947 usury^H5392 and increase^H8636, and thou hast greedily gained^H1214 of thy neighbours^H7453 by extortion^H6233, and hast forgotten^H7911 me, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

¹³Behold, therefore I have smitten^H5221 mine hand^H3709 at thy dishonest gain^H1215 which thou hast made^H6213, and at thy blood^H1818 which hath been in the midst^H8432 of thee. ¹⁴Can thine heart^H3820 endure^H5975, or can thine hands^H3027 be strong^H2388, in the days^H3117 that I shall deal^H6213 with thee? I the LORD^H3068 have spoken^H1696 it , and will do^H6213 it . ¹⁵And I will scatter^H6327 thee among the heathen^H1471, and disperse^H2219 thee in the countries^H0776, and will consume^H8552 thy filthiness^H2932 out of thee. ¹⁶And thou shalt take thine inheritance^H2490 in thyself in the sight^H5869 of the heathen^H1471, and thou shalt know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068.

¹⁷And the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ¹⁸Son^H1121 of man^H0120, the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 is to me become dross^H5509: all they are brass^H5178, and tin^H0913, and iron^H1270, and lead^H5777, in the midst^H8432 of the furnace^H3564; they are even the dross^H5509 of silver^H3701. ¹⁹Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Because ye are all become dross^H5509, behold, therefore I will gather^H6908 you into the midst^H8432 of Jerusalem^H3389. ²⁰ As they gather^H6910 silver^H3701, and brass^H5178, and iron^H1270, and lead^H5777, and tin^H0913, into the midst^H8432 of the furnace^H3564, to blow^H5301 the fire^H0784 upon it, to melt^H5413 it; so will I gather^H6908 you in mine anger^H0639 and in my fury^H2534, and I will leave^H3240 you there , and melt^H5413 you. ²¹Yea, I will gather^H3664 you, and blow^H5301 upon you in the fire^H0784 of my wrath^H5678, and ye shall be melted^H5413 in the midst^H8432 thereof. ²²As silver^H3701 is melted^H2046 in the midst^H8432 of the furnace^H3564, so shall ye be melted^H5413 in the midst^H8432 thereof; and ye shall know^H3045 that I the LORD^H3068 have poured out^H8210 my fury^H2534 upon you.

²³And the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²⁴Son^H1121 of man^H0120, say^H0559 unto her, Thou art the land^H0776 that is not cleansed^H2891, nor rained^H1656 upon in the day^H3117 of indignation^H2195. ²⁵ There is a conspiracy^H7195 of her prophets^H5030 in the midst^H8432 thereof, like a roaring^H7580 lion^H0738 ravening^H2963 the prey^H2964; they have devoured^H0398 souls^H5315; they have taken^H3947 the treasure^H2633 and precious things^H3366; they have made her many^H7235 widows^H0490 in the midst^H8432 thereof. ²⁶Her priests^H3548 have violated^H2554 my law^H8451, and have profaned^H2490 mine holy things^H6944: they have put no difference^H0914 between the holy^H6944 and profane^H2455, neither have they shewed^H3045 difference between the unclean^H2931 and the clean^H2889, and have hid^H5956 their eyes^H5869 from my sabbaths^H7676, and I am profaned^H2490 among^H8432 them. ²⁷Her princes^H8269 in the midst^H7130 thereof are like wolves^H2061 ravening^H2963 the prey^H2964, to shed^H8210 blood^H1818, and to destroy^H0006 souls^H5315, to get^H1214 dishonest gain^H1215. ²⁸And her prophets^H5030 have daubed^H2902 them with untempered^H8602 morter , seeing^H2374 vanity^H7723, and divining^H7080 lies^H3577 unto them, saying^H0559, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, when the LORD^H3068 hath not spoken^H1696. ²⁹The people^H5971 of the land^H0776 have used oppression^H6231, and exercised^H1497 robbery^H1498, and have vexed^H3238 the poor^H6041 and needy^H0034: yea, they have oppressed^H6231 the stranger^H1616 wrongfully^H4941. ³⁰And I sought^H1245 for a man^H0376 among them, that should make up^H1443 the hedge^H1447, and stand^H5975 in the gap^H6556 before^H6440 me for the land^H0776, that I should not destroy^H7843 it: but I found^H4672 none. ³¹Therefore have I poured out^H8210 mine indignation^H2195 upon them; I have consumed^H3615 them with the fire^H0784 of my wrath^H5678: their own way^H1870 have I recompensed^H5414 upon their heads^H7218, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

Ezekiel: Chapter 23

¹The word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came again unto me, saying^H0559, ²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, there were two^H8147 women^H0802, the daughters^H1323 of one^H0259 mother^H0517: ³And they committed whoredoms^H2181 in Egypt^H4714; they committed whoredoms^H2181 in their youth^H5271: there were their breasts^H7699 pressed^H4600, and there they bruised^H6213 the teats^H1717 of their virginity^H1331. ⁴And the names^H8034 of them were Aholah^H0170 the elder^H1419, and Aholibah^H0172 her sister^H0269: and they were mine, and they bare^H3205 sons^H1121 and daughters^H1323. Thus were their names^H8034; Samaria^H8111 is Aholah^H0170, and Jerusalem^H3389 Aholibah^H0172. ⁵And Aholah^H0170 played the harlot^H2181 when she was mine^H8478; and she doted^H5689 on her lovers^H0157, on the Assyrians^H0804 her neighbours^H7138, ⁶ Which were clothed^H3847 with blue^H8504, captains^H6346 and rulers^H5461, all of them desirable^H2531 young men^H0970, horsemen^H6571 riding^H7392 upon horses^H5483. ⁷Thus she committed^H5414 her whoredoms^H8457 with them, with all them that were the chosen^H4005 men^H1121 of Assyria^H0804, and with all on whom she doted^H5689: with all their idols^H1544 she defiled^H2930 herself. ⁸Neither left^H5800 she her whoredoms^H8457 brought from Egypt^H4714: for in her youth^H5271 they lay^H7901 with her, and they bruised^H6213 the breasts^H1717 of her virginity^H1331, and poured^H8210 their whoredom^H8457 upon her. ⁹Wherefore I have delivered^H5414 her into the hand^H3027 of her lovers^H0157, into the hand^H3027 of the Assyrians^H1121, upon whom she doted^H5689. ¹⁰These discovered^H1540 her nakedness^H6172: they took^H3947 her sons^H1121 and her daughters^H1323, and slew^H2026 her with the sword^H2719: and she became famous^H8034 among women^H0802; for they had executed^H6213 judgment^H8196 upon her.

¹¹And when her sister^H0269 Aholibah^H0172 saw^H7200 this , she was more corrupt^H7843 in her inordinate love^H5691 than she, and in her whoredoms^H8457 more than her sister^H0269 in her whoredoms^H2183. ¹²She doted^H5689 upon the Assyrians^H1121 her neighbours^H7138, captains^H6346 and rulers^H5461 clothed^H3847 most gorgeously^H4358, horsemen^H6571 riding^H7392 upon horses^H5483, all of them desirable^H2531 young men^H0970. ¹³Then I saw^H7200 that she was defiled^H2930, that they took both^H8147 one^H0259 way^H1870, ¹⁴And that she increased^H3254 her whoredoms^H8457: for when she saw^H7200 men^H0582 pourtrayed^H2707 upon the wall^H7023, the images^H6754 of the Chaldeans^H3778 pourtrayed^H2710 with vermilion^H8350, ¹⁵Girded^H2289 with girdles^H0232 upon their loins^H4975, exceeding^H5628 in dyed attire^H2871 upon their heads^H7218, all of them princes^H7991 to look to^H4758, after the manner^H1823 of the Babylonians^H1121 of Chaldea^H3778, the land^H0776 of their nativity^H4138: ¹⁶And as soon as she saw^H4758 them with her eyes^H5869, she doted^H5689 upon them, and sent^H7971 messengers^H4397 unto them into Chaldea^H3778. ¹⁷And the Babylonians^H1121 came^H0935 to her into the bed^H4904 of love^H1730, and they defiled^H2930 her with their whoredom^H8457, and she was polluted^H2930 with them, and her mind^H5315 was alienated^H3363 from them. ¹⁸So she discovered^H1540 her whoredoms^H8457, and discovered^H1540 her nakedness^H6172: then my mind^H5315 was alienated^H3363 from her, like as my mind^H5315 was alienated^H5361 from her sister^H0269. ¹⁹Yet she multiplied^H7235 her whoredoms^H8457, in calling to remembrance^H2142 the days^H3117 of her youth^H5271, wherein she had played the harlot^H2181 in the land^H0776 of Egypt^H4714. ²⁰For she doted^H5689 upon their paramours^H6370, whose flesh^H1320 is as the flesh^H1320 of asses^H2543, and whose issue^H2231 is like the issue^H2231 of horses^H5483. ²¹Thus thou calledst to remembrance^H6485 the lewdness^H2154 of thy youth^H5271, in bruising^H6213 thy teats^H1717 by the Egyptians^H4714 for the paps^H7699 of thy youth^H5271.

²²Therefore, O Aholibah^H0172, thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I will raise up^H5782 thy lovers^H0157 against thee, from whom thy mind^H5315 is alienated^H5361, and I will bring^H0935 them against thee on every side^H5439; ²³The Babylonians^H1121, and all the Chaldeans^H3778, Pekod^H6489, and Shoa^H7772, and Koa^H6970, and all the Assyrians^H1121 with them: all of them desirable^H2531 young men^H0970, captains^H6346 and rulers^H5461, great lords^H7991 and renowned^H7121, all of them riding^H7392 upon horses^H5483. ²⁴And they shall come^H0935 against thee with chariots^H2021, wagons^H7393, and wheels^H1534, and with an assembly^H6951 of people^H5971, which shall set^H7760 against thee buckler^H6793 and shield^H4043 and helmet^H6959 round about^H5439: and I will set^H5414 judgment^H4941 before^H6440 them, and they shall judge^H8199 thee according to their judgments^H4941. ²⁵And I will set^H5414 my jealousy^H7068 against thee, and they shall deal^H6213 furiously^H2534 with thee: they shall take away^H5493 thy nose^H0639 and thine ears^H0241; and thy remnant^H0319 shall fall^H5307 by the sword^H2719: they shall take^H3947 thy sons^H1121 and thy daughters^H1323; and thy residue^H0319 shall be devoured^H0398 by the fire^H0784. ²⁶They shall also strip^H6584 thee out of thy clothes^H0899, and take away^H3947 thy fair^H8597 jewels^H3627. ²⁷Thus will I make thy lewdness^H2154 to cease^H7673 from thee, and thy whoredom^H2184 brought from the land^H0776 of Egypt^H4714: so that thou shalt not lift up^H5375 thine eyes^H5869 unto them, nor remember^H2142 Egypt^H4714 any more. ²⁸For thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I will deliver^H5414 thee into the hand^H3027 of them whom thou hatest^H8130, into the hand^H3027 of them from whom thy mind^H5315 is alienated^H5361: ²⁹And they shall deal^H6213 with thee hatefully^H8135, and shall take away^H3947 all thy labour^H3018, and shall leave^H5800 thee naked^H5903 and bare^H6181: and the nakedness^H6172 of thy whoredoms^H2183 shall be discovered^H1540, both thy lewdness^H2154 and thy whoredoms^H8457. ³⁰I will do^H6213 these things unto thee, because thou hast gone a whoring^H2181 after^H0310 the heathen^H1471, and because thou art polluted^H2930 with their idols^H1544. ³¹Thou hast walked^H1980 in the way^H1870 of thy sister^H0269; therefore will I give^H5414 her cup^H3563 into thine hand^H3027. ³²Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Thou shalt drink^H8354 of thy sisters^H0269 cup^H3563 deep^H6013 and large^H7342: thou shalt be laughed to scorn^H6712 and had in derision^H3933; it containeth^H3557 much^H4767. ³³Thou shalt be filled^H4390 with drunkenness^H7943 and sorrow^H3015, with the cup^H3563 of astonishment^H8047 and desolation^H8077, with the cup^H3563 of thy sister^H0269 Samaria^H8111. ³⁴Thou shalt even drink^H8354 it and suck it out^H4680, and thou shalt break^H1633 the sherds^H2789 thereof, and pluck off^H5423 thine own breasts^H7699: for I have spoken^H1696 it , saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ³⁵Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Because thou hast forgotten^H7911 me, and cast^H7993 me behind^H0310 thy back^H1458, therefore bear^H5375 thou also thy lewdness^H2154 and thy whoredoms^H8457.

³⁶The LORD^H3068 said^H0559 moreover unto me; Son^H1121 of man^H0120, wilt thou judge^H8199 Aholah^H0170 and Aholibah^H0172? yea, declare^H5046 unto them their abominations^H8441; ³⁷That they have committed adultery^H5003, and blood^H1818 is in their hands^H3027, and with their idols^H1544 have they committed adultery^H5003, and have also caused their sons^H1121, whom they bare^H3205 unto me, to pass for them through^H5674 the fire , to devour^H0402 them . ³⁸Moreover this they have done^H6213 unto me: they have defiled^H2930 my sanctuary^H4720 in the same day^H3117, and have profaned^H2490 my sabbaths^H7676. ³⁹For when they had slain^H7819 their children^H1121 to their idols^H1544, then they came^H0935 the same day^H3117 into my sanctuary^H4720 to profane^H2490 it; and, lo, thus have they done^H6213 in the midst^H8432 of mine house^H1004. ⁴⁰And furthermore^H0637, that ye have sent^H7971 for men^H0582 to come^H0935 from far^H4801, unto whom a messenger^H4397 was sent^H7971; and, lo, they came^H0935: for whom thou didst wash^H7364 thyself, paintedst^H3583 thy eyes^H5869, and deckedst^H5710 thyself with ornaments^H5716, ⁴¹And satest^H3427 upon a stately^H3520 bed^H4296, and a table^H7979 prepared^H6186 before^H6440 it, whereupon thou hast set^H7760 mine incense^H7004 and mine oil^H8081. ⁴²And a voice^H6963 of a multitude^H1995 being at ease^H7961 was with her: and with the men^H0582 of the common sort^H7230 were brought^H0935 Sabeans^H5436 from the wilderness^H4057, which put^H5414 bracelets^H6781 upon their hands^H3027, and beautiful^H8597 crowns^H5850 upon their heads^H7218. ⁴³Then said^H0559 I unto her that was old^H1087 in adulteries^H5004, Will they now commit^H2181 whoredoms^H8457 with her, and she with them ? ⁴⁴Yet they went in^H0935 unto her, as they go in^H0935 unto a woman^H0802 that playeth the harlot^H2181: so went they in^H0935 unto Aholah^H0170 and unto Aholibah^H0172, the lewd^H2154 women^H0802.

⁴⁵And the righteous^H6662 men^H0582, they shall judge^H8199 them after the manner^H4941 of adulteresses^H5003, and after the manner^H4941 of women that shed^H8210 blood^H1818; because they are adulteresses^H5003, and blood^H1818 is in their hands^H3027. ⁴⁶For thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; I will bring up^H5927 a company^H6951 upon them, and will give^H5414 them to be removed^H2189 and spoiled^H0957. ⁴⁷And the company^H6951 shall stone^H7275 them with stones^H0068, and dispatch^H1254 them with their swords^H2719; they shall slay^H2026 their sons^H1121 and their daughters^H1323, and burn up^H8313 their houses^H1004 with fire^H0784. ⁴⁸Thus will I cause lewdness^H2154 to cease^H7673 out of the land^H0776, that all women^H0802 may be taught^H3256 not to do^H6213 after your lewdness^H2154. ⁴⁹And they shall recompense^H5414 your lewdness^H2154 upon you, and ye shall bear^H5375 the sins^H2399 of your idols^H1544: and ye shall know^H3045 that I am the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

¹Again in the ninth^H8671 year^H8141, in the tenth^H6224 month^H2320, in the tenth^H6218 day of the month^H2320, the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, write^H3789 thee the name^H8034 of the day^H3117, even of this same^H6106 day^H3117: the king^H4428 of Babylon^H0894 set^H5564 himself against Jerusalem^H3389 this same^H6106 day^H3117. ³And utter^H4911 a parable^H4912 unto the rebellious^H4805 house^H1004, and say^H0559 unto them, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Set on^H8239 a pot^H5518, set it on^H8239, and also pour^H3332 water^H4325 into it: ⁴Gather^H0622 the pieces^H5409 thereof into it, even every good^H2896 piece^H5409, the thigh^H3409, and the shoulder^H3802; fill^H4390 it with the choice^H4005 bones^H6106. ⁵Take^H3947 the choice^H4005 of the flock^H6629, and burn^H1754 also the bones^H6106 under it, and make it boil^H7570 well^H7571, and let them seethe^H1310 the bones^H6106 of it therein^H8432.

⁶Wherefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Woe^H0188 to the bloody^H1818 city^H5892, to the pot^H5518 whose scum^H2457 is therein, and whose scum^H2457 is not gone out^H3318 of it! bring it out^H3318 piece^H5409 by piece^H5409; let no lot^H1486 fall^H5307 upon it. ⁷For her blood^H1818 is in the midst^H8432 of her; she set^H7760 it upon the top^H6706 of a rock^H5553; she poured^H8210 it not upon the ground^H0776, to cover^H3680 it with dust^H6083; ⁸That it might cause fury^H2534 to come up^H5927 to take^H5358 vengeance^H5359; I have set^H5414 her blood^H1818 upon the top^H6706 of a rock^H5553, that it should not be covered^H3680. ⁹Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Woe^H0188 to the bloody^H1818 city^H5892! I will even make the pile^H4071 for fire great^H1431. ¹⁰Heap^H7235 on wood^H6086, kindle^H1814 the fire^H0784, consume^H8552 the flesh^H1320, and spice^H7543 it well^H4841, and let the bones^H6106 be burned^H2787. ¹¹Then set^H5975 it empty^H7386 upon the coals^H1513 thereof, that the brass^H5178 of it may be hot^H3179, and may burn^H2787, and that the filthiness^H2932 of it may be molten^H5413 in it^H8432, that the scum^H2457 of it may be consumed^H8552. ¹²She hath wearied^H3811 herself with lies^H8383, and her great^H7227 scum^H2457 went not forth^H3318 out of her: her scum^H2457 shall be in the fire^H0784. ¹³In thy filthiness^H2932 is lewdness^H2154: because I have purged^H2891 thee, and thou wast not purged^H2891, thou shalt not be purged^H2891 from thy filthiness^H2932 any more, till I have caused my fury^H2534 to rest^H5117 upon thee. ¹⁴I the LORD^H3068 have spoken^H1696 it: it shall come to pass^H0935, and I will do^H6213 it; I will not go back^H6544, neither will I spare^H2347, neither will I repent^H5162; according to thy ways^H1870, and according to thy doings^H5949, shall they judge^H8199 thee, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

¹⁵Also the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ¹⁶Son^H1121 of man^H0120, behold, I take away^H3947 from thee the desire^H4261 of thine eyes^H5869 with a stroke^H4046: yet neither shalt thou mourn^H5594 nor weep^H1058, neither shall thy tears^H1832 run down^H0935. ¹⁷Forbear^H1826 to cry^H0602, make^H6213 no mourning^H0060 for the dead^H4191, bind^H2280 the tire of thine head^H6287 upon thee, and put on^H7760 thy shoes^H5275 upon thy feet^H7272, and cover^H5844 not thy lips^H8222, and eat^H0398 not the bread^H3899 of men^H0582. ¹⁸So I spake^H1696 unto the people^H5971 in the morning^H1242: and at even^H6153 my wife^H0802 died^H4191; and I did^H6213 in the morning^H1242 as I was commanded^H6680.

¹⁹And the people^H5971 said^H0559 unto me, Wilt thou not tell^H5046 us what these things are to us, that thou doest^H6213 so ? ²⁰Then I answered^H0559 them, The word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²¹Speak^H0559 unto the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I will profane^H2490 my sanctuary^H4720, the excellency^H1347 of your strength^H5797, the desire^H4261 of your eyes^H5869, and that which your soul^H5315 pitieth^H4263; and your sons^H1121 and your daughters^H1323 whom ye have left^H5800 shall fall^H5307 by the sword^H2719. ²²And ye shall do^H6213 as I have done^H6213: ye shall not cover^H5844 your lips^H8222, nor eat^H0398 the bread^H3899 of men^H0582. ²³And your tires^H6287 shall be upon your heads^H7218, and your shoes^H5275 upon your feet^H7272: ye shall not mourn^H5594 nor weep^H1058; but ye shall pine away^H4743 for your iniquities^H5771, and mourn^H5098 one^H0376 toward another^H0251. ²⁴Thus Ezekiel^H3168 is unto you a sign^H4159: according to all that he hath done^H6213 shall ye do^H6213: and when this cometh^H0935, ye shall know^H3045 that I am the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ²⁵Also, thou son^H1121 of man^H0120, shall it not be in the day^H3117 when I take^H3947 from them their strength^H4581, the joy^H4885 of their glory^H8597, the desire^H4261 of their eyes^H5869, and that whereupon they set^H4853 their minds^H5315, their sons^H1121 and their daughters^H1323, ²⁶ That he that escapeth^H6412 in that day^H3117 shall come^H0935 unto thee, to cause thee to hear^H2045 it with thine ears^H0241? ²⁷In that day^H3117 shall thy mouth^H6310 be opened^H6605 to him which is escaped^H6412, and thou shalt speak^H1696, and be no more dumb^H0481: and thou shalt be a sign^H4159 unto them; and they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068.

Ezekiel: Chapter 25

¹The word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came again unto me, saying^H0559, ²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, set^H7760 thy face^H6440 against the Ammonites^H1121, and prophesy^H5012 against them; ³And say^H0559 unto the Ammonites^H1121, Hear^H8085 the word^H1697 of the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Because thou saidst^H0559, Aha^H1889, against my sanctuary^H4720, when it was profaned^H2490; and against the land^H0127 of Israel^H3478, when it was desolate^H8074; and against the house^H1004 of Judah^H3063, when they went^H1980 into captivity^H1473; ⁴Behold, therefore I will deliver^H5414 thee to the men^H1121 of the east^H6924 for a possession^H4181, and they shall set^H3427 their palaces^H2918 in thee, and make^H5414 their dwellings^H4908 in thee: they shall eat^H0398 thy fruit^H6529, and they shall drink^H8354 thy milk^H2461. ⁵And I will make^H5414 Rabbah^H7237 a stable^H5116 for camels^H1581, and the Ammonites^H1121 a couchingplace^H4769 for flocks^H6629: and ye shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068. ⁶For thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Because thou hast clapped^H4222 thine hands^H3027, and stamped^H7554 with the feet^H7272, and rejoiced^H8055 in heart^H5315 with all thy despite^H7589 against the land^H0127 of Israel^H3478; ⁷Behold, therefore I will stretch out^H5186 mine hand^H3027 upon thee, and will deliver^H5414 thee for a spoil^H0957 to the heathen^H1471; and I will cut thee off^H3772 from the people^H5971, and I will cause thee to perish^H0006 out of the countries^H0776: I will destroy^H8045 thee; and thou shalt know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068.

⁸Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Because^H3282 that Moab^H4124 and Seir^H8165 do say^H0559, Behold, the house^H1004 of Judah^H3063 is like unto all the heathen^H1471; ⁹Therefore, behold, I will open^H6605 the side^H3802 of Moab^H4124 from the cities^H5892, from his cities^H5892 which are on his frontiers^H7097, the glory^H6643 of the country^H0776, Beth-jeshimoth^H1020, Baal-meon^H1186, and Kiriathaim^H7156, ¹⁰Unto the men^H1121 of the east^H6924 with the Ammonites^H1121, and will give^H5414 them in possession^H4181, that the Ammonites^H1121 may not be remembered^H2142 among the nations^H1471. ¹¹And I will execute^H6213 judgments^H8201 upon Moab^H4124; and they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068.

¹²Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Because that Edom^H0123 hath dealt^H6213 against the house^H1004 of Judah^H3063 by taking^H5358 vengeance^H5359, and hath greatly^H0816 offended^H0816, and revenged^H5358 himself upon them; ¹³Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; I will also stretch out^H5186 mine hand^H3027 upon Edom^H0123, and will cut off^H3772 man^H0120 and beast^H0929 from it; and I will make^H5414 it desolate^H2723 from Teman^H8487; and they of Dedan^H1719 shall fall^H5307 by the sword^H2719. ¹⁴And I will lay^H5414 my vengeance^H5360 upon Edom^H0123 by the hand^H3027 of my people^H5971 Israel^H3478: and they shall do^H6213 in Edom^H0123 according to mine anger^H0639 and according to my fury^H2534; and they shall know^H3045 my vengeance^H5360, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

¹⁵Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Because the Philistines^H6430 have dealt^H6213 by revenge^H5360, and have taken^H5358 vengeance^H5359 with a despiteful^H7589 heart^H5315, to destroy^H4889 it for the old^H5769 hatred^H0342; ¹⁶Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I will stretch out^H5186 mine hand^H3027 upon the Philistines^H6430, and I will cut off^H3772 the Cherethims^H3774, and destroy^H0006 the remnant^H7611 of the sea^H3220 coast^H2348. ¹⁷And I will execute^H6213 great^H1419 vengeance^H5360 upon them with furious^H2534 rebukes^H8433; and they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068, when I shall lay^H5414 my vengeance^H5360 upon them.

Ezekiel: Chapter 26

¹And it came to pass in the eleventh^H6249 year^H8141, in the first^H0259 day of the month^H2320, that the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, because that Tyrus^H6865 hath said^H0559 against Jerusalem^H3389, Aha^H1889, she is broken^H7665 that was the gates^H1817 of the people^H5971: she is turned^H5437 unto me: I shall be replenished^H4390, now she is laid waste^H2717: ³Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I am against thee, O Tyrus^H6865, and will cause many^H7227 nations^H1471 to come up^H5927 against thee, as the sea^H3220 causeth his waves^H1530 to come up^H5927. ⁴And they shall destroy^H7843 the walls^H2346 of Tyrus^H6865, and break down^H2040 her towers^H4026: I will also scrape^H5500 her dust^H6083 from her, and make^H5414 her like the top^H6706 of a rock^H5553. ⁵It shall be a place for the spreading^H4894 of nets^H2764 in the midst^H8432 of the sea^H3220: for I have spoken^H1696 it , saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069: and it shall become a spoil^H0957 to the nations^H1471. ⁶And her daughters^H1323 which are in the field^H7704 shall be slain^H2026 by the sword^H2719; and they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068.

⁷For thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I will bring^H0935 upon Tyrus^H6865 Nebuchadrezzar^H5019 king^H4428 of Babylon^H0894, a king^H4428 of kings^H4428, from the north^H6828, with horses^H5483, and with chariots^H7393, and with horsemen^H6571, and companies^H6951, and much^H7227 people^H5971. ⁸He shall slay^H2026 with the sword^H2719 thy daughters^H1323 in the field^H7704: and he shall make^H5414 a fort^H1785 against thee, and cast^H8210 a mount^H5550 against thee, and lift up^H6965 the buckler^H6793 against thee. ⁹And he shall set^H5414 engines^H4239 of war^H6904 against thy walls^H2346, and with his axes^H2719 he shall break down^H5422 thy towers^H4026. ¹⁰By reason of the abundance^H8229 of his horses^H5483 their dust^H0080 shall cover^H3680 thee: thy walls^H2346 shall shake^H7493 at the noise^H6963 of the horsemen^H6571, and of the wheels^H1534, and of the chariots^H7393, when he shall enter^H0935 into thy gates^H8179, as men enter^H3996 into a city^H5892 wherein is made a breach^H1234. ¹¹With the hoofs^H6541 of his horses^H5483 shall he tread down^H7429 all thy streets^H2351: he shall slay^H2026 thy people^H5971 by the sword^H2719, and thy strong^H5797 garrisons^H4676 shall go down^H3381 to the ground^H0776. ¹²And they shall make a spoil^H7997 of thy riches^H2428, and make a prey^H0962 of thy merchandise^H7404: and they shall break down^H2040 thy walls^H2346, and destroy^H5422 thy pleasant^H2532 houses^H1004: and they shall lay^H7760 thy stones^H0068 and thy timber^H6086 and thy dust^H6083 in the midst^H8432 of the water^H4325. ¹³And I will cause the noise^H1995 of thy songs^H7892 to cease^H7673; and the sound^H6963 of thy harps^H3658 shall be no more heard^H8085. ¹⁴And I will make^H5414 thee like the top^H6706 of a rock^H5553: thou shalt be a place to spread^H4894 nets^H2764 upon^H4894; thou shalt be built^H1129 no more: for I the LORD^H3068 have spoken^H1696 it , saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

¹⁵Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069 to Tyrus^H6865; Shall not the isles^H0339 shake^H7493 at the sound^H6963 of thy fall^H4658, when the wounded^H2491 cry^H0602, when the slaughter^H2027 is made^H2026 in the midst^H8432 of thee? ¹⁶Then all the princes^H5387 of the sea^H3220 shall come down^H3381 from their thrones^H3678, and lay away^H5493 their robes^H4598, and put off^H6584 their broidered^H7553 garments^H0899: they shall clothe^H3847 themselves with trembling^H2731; they shall sit^H3427 upon the ground^H0776, and shall tremble^H2729 at every moment^H7281, and be astonished^H8074 at thee. ¹⁷And they shall take up^H5375 a lamentation^H7015 for thee, and say^H0559 to thee, How art thou destroyed^H0006, that wast inhabited^H3427 of seafaring men^H3220, the renowned^H1984 city^H5892, which wast strong^H2389 in the sea^H3220, she and her inhabitants^H3427, which cause^H5414 their terror^H2851 to be on all that haunt^H3427 it! ¹⁸Now shall the isles^H0339 tremble^H2729 in the day^H3117 of thy fall^H4658; yea, the isles^H0339 that are in the sea^H3220 shall be troubled^H0926 at thy departure^H3318. ¹⁹For thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; When I shall make^H5414 thee a desolate^H2717 city^H5892, like the cities^H5892 that are not inhabited^H3427; when I shall bring up^H5927 the deep^H8415 upon thee, and great^H7227 waters^H4325 shall cover^H3680 thee; ²⁰When I shall bring thee down^H3381 with them that descend^H3381 into the pit^H0953, with the people^H5971 of old time^H5769, and shall set^H3427 thee in the low parts^H8482 of the earth^H0776, in places desolate^H2723 of old^H5769, with them that go down^H3381 to the pit^H0953, that thou be not inhabited^H3427; and I shall set^H5414 glory^H6643 in the land^H0776 of the living^H2416; ²¹I will make^H5414 thee a terror^H1091, and thou shalt be no more: though thou be sought for^H1245, yet shalt thou never^H5769 be found^H4672 again, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

¹The word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came again unto me, saying^H0559, ²Now, thou son^H1121 of man^H0120, take up^H5375 a lamentation^H7015 for Tyrus^H6865; ³And say^H0559 unto Tyrus^H6865, O thou that art situate^H3427 at the entry^H3997 of the sea^H3220, which art a merchant^H7402 of the people^H5971 for many^H7227 isles^H0339, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; O Tyrus^H6865, thou hast said^H0559, I am of perfect^H3632 beauty^H3308. ⁴Thy borders^H1366 are in the midst^H3820 of the seas^H3220, thy builders^H1129 have perfected^H3634 thy beauty^H3308. ⁵They have made^H1129 all thy ship boards^H3871 of fir trees^H1265 of Senir^H8149: they have taken^H3947 cedars^H0730 from Lebanon^H3844 to make^H6213 masts^H8650 for thee. ⁶ Of the oaks^H0437 of Bashan^H1316 have they made^H6213 thine oars^H4880; the company^H1323 of the Ashurites^H0839 have made^H6213 thy benches^H7175 of ivory^H8127, brought out of the isles^H0339 of Chittim^H3794. ⁷Fine linen^H8336 with broidered work^H7553 from Egypt^H4714 was that which thou spreadest forth^H4666 to be thy sail^H5251; blue^H8504 and purple^H0713 from the isles^H0339 of Elishah^H0473 was that which covered^H4374 thee. ⁸The inhabitants^H3427 of Zidon^H6721 and Arvad^H0719 were thy mariners^H7751: thy wise^H2450 men , O Tyrus^H6865, that were in thee, were thy pilots^H2259. ⁹The ancients^H2205 of Gebal^H1380 and the wise^H2450 men thereof were in thee thy calkers^H0919: all the ships^H0591 of the sea^H3220 with their mariners^H4419 were in thee to occupy^H6148 thy merchandise^H4627. ¹⁰They of Persia^H6539 and of Lud^H3865 and of Phut^H6316 were in thine army^H2428, thy men^H0582 of war^H4421: they hanged^H8518 the shield^H4043 and helmet^H3553 in thee; they set forth^H5414 thy comeliness^H1926. ¹¹The men^H1121 of Arvad^H0719 with thine army^H2428 were upon thy walls^H2346 round about^H5439, and the Gammadims^H1575 were in thy towers^H4026: they hanged^H8518 their shields^H7982 upon thy walls^H2346 round about^H5439; they have made^H3634 thy beauty^H3308 perfect^H3634. ¹² Tarshish^H8659 was thy merchant^H5503 by reason of the multitude^H7230 of all kind of riches^H1952; with silver^H3701, iron^H1270, tin^H0913, and lead^H5777, they traded^H5414 in thy fairs^H5801. ¹³ Javan^H3120, Tubal^H8422, and Meshech^H4902, they were thy merchants^H7402: they traded^H5414 the persons^H5315 of men^H0120 and vessels^H3627 of brass^H5178 in thy market^H4627. ¹⁴They of the house^H1004 of Togarmah^H8425 traded^H5414 in thy fairs^H5801 with horses^H5483 and horsemen^H6571 and mules^H6505. ¹⁵The men^H1121 of Dedan^H1719 were thy merchants^H7402; many^H7227 isles^H0339 were the merchandise^H5506 of thine hand^H3027: they brought^H7725 thee for a present^H0814 horns^H7161 of ivory^H8127 and ebony^H1894. ¹⁶Syria^H0758 was thy merchant^H5503 by reason of the multitude^H7230 of the wares of thy making^H4639: they occupied^H5414 in thy fairs^H5801 with emeralds^H5306, purple^H0713, and broidered work^H7553, and fine linen^H0948, and coral^H7215, and agate^H3539. ¹⁷ Judah^H3063, and the land^H0776 of Israel^H3478, they were thy merchants^H7402: they traded^H5414 in thy market^H4627 wheat^H2406 of Minnith^H4511, and Pannag^H6436, and honey^H1706, and oil^H8081, and balm^H6875. ¹⁸ Damascus^H1834 was thy merchant^H5503 in the multitude^H7230 of the wares of thy making^H4639, for the multitude^H7230 of all riches^H1952; in the wine^H3196 of Helbon^H2463, and white^H6713 wool^H6785. ¹⁹ Dan^H2051 also and Javan^H3120 going to and fro^H0235 occupied^H5414 in thy fairs^H5801: bright^H6219 iron^H1270, cassia^H6916, and calamus^H7070, were in thy market^H4627. ²⁰ Dedan^H1719 was thy merchant^H7402 in precious^H2667 clothes^H0899 for chariots^H7396. ²¹ Arabia^H6152, and all the princes^H5387 of Kedar^H6938, they occupied^H5503 with thee^H3027 in lambs^H3733, and rams^H0352, and goats^H6260: in these were they thy merchants^H5503. ²²The merchants^H7402 of Sheba^H7614 and Raamah^H7484, they were thy merchants^H7402: they occupied^H5414 in thy fairs^H5801 with chief^H7218 of all spices^H1314, and with all precious^H3368 stones^H0068, and gold^H2091. ²³ Haran^H2771, and Canneh^H3656, and Eden^H5729, the merchants^H7402 of Sheba^H7614, Asshur^H0804, and Chilmad^H3638, were thy merchants^H7402. ²⁴These were thy merchants^H7402 in all sorts^H4360 of things , in blue^H8504 clothes^H1545, and broidered work^H7553, and in chests^H1595 of rich apparel^H1264, bound^H2280 with cords^H2256, and made of cedar^H0729, among thy merchandise^H4819. ²⁵The ships^H0591 of Tarshish^H8659 did sing^H7788 of thee in thy market^H4627: and thou wast replenished^H4390, and made very^H3966 glorious^H3513 in the midst^H3820 of the seas^H3220.

²⁶Thy rowers^H7751 have brought^H0935 thee into great^H7227 waters^H4325: the east^H6921 wind^H7307 hath broken^H7665 thee in the midst^H3820 of the seas^H3220. ²⁷Thy riches^H1952, and thy fairs^H5801, thy merchandise^H4627, thy mariners^H4419, and thy pilots^H2259, thy calkers^H0919, and the occupiers^H6148 of thy merchandise^H4627, and all thy men^H0582 of war^H4421, that are in thee, and in all thy company^H6951 which is in the midst^H8432 of thee, shall fall^H5307 into the midst^H3820 of the seas^H3220 in the day^H3117 of thy ruin^H4658. ²⁸The suburbs^H4054 shall shake^H7493 at the sound^H6963 of the cry^H2201 of thy pilots^H2259. ²⁹And all that handle^H8610 the oar^H4880, the mariners^H4419, and all the pilots^H2259 of the sea^H3220, shall come down^H3381 from their ships^H0591, they shall stand^H5975 upon the land^H0776; ³⁰And shall cause their voice^H6963 to be heard^H8085 against thee, and shall cry^H2199 bitterly^H4751, and shall cast up^H5927 dust^H6083 upon their heads^H7218, they shall wallow^H6428 themselves in the ashes^H0665: ³¹And they shall make themselves utterly^H7144 bald^H7139 for thee, and gird^H2296 them with sackcloth^H8242, and they shall weep^H1058 for thee with bitterness^H4751 of heart^H5315 and bitter^H4751 wailing^H4553. ³²And in their wailing^H5204 they shall take up^H5375 a lamentation^H7015 for thee, and lament^H6969 over thee, saying , What city is like Tyrus^H6865, like the destroyed^H1822 in the midst^H8432 of the sea^H3220? ³³When thy wares^H5801 went forth^H3318 out of the seas^H3220, thou filledst^H7646 many^H7227 people^H5971; thou didst enrich^H6238 the kings^H4428 of the earth^H0776 with the multitude^H7230 of thy riches^H1952 and of thy merchandise^H4627. ³⁴In the time^H6256 when thou shalt be broken^H7665 by the seas^H3220 in the depths^H4615 of the waters^H4325 thy merchandise^H4627 and all thy company^H6951 in the midst^H8432 of thee shall fall^H5307. ³⁵All the inhabitants^H3427 of the isles^H0339 shall be astonished^H8074 at thee, and their kings^H4428 shall be sore^H8178 afraid^H8175, they shall be troubled^H7481 in their countenance^H6440. ³⁶The merchants^H5503 among the people^H5971 shall hiss^H8319 at thee; thou shalt be a terror^H1091, and never shalt be any more^H5704.

Ezekiel: Chapter 28

¹The word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came again unto me, saying^H0559, ²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, say^H0559 unto the prince^H5057 of Tyrus^H6865, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Because thine heart^H3820 is lifted up^H1361, and thou hast said^H0559, I am a God^H0410, I sit^H3427 in the seat^H4186 of God^H0430, in the midst^H3820 of the seas^H3220; yet thou art a man^H0120, and not God^H0410, though thou set^H5414 thine heart^H3820 as the heart^H3820 of God^H0430: ³Behold, thou art wiser^H2450 than Daniel^H1840; there is no secret^H5640 that they can hide^H6004 from thee: ⁴With thy wisdom^H2451 and with thine understanding^H8394 thou hast gotten^H6213 thee riches^H2428, and hast gotten^H6213 gold^H2091 and silver^H3701 into thy treasures^H0214: ⁵By thy great^H7230 wisdom^H2451 and by thy traffick^H7404 hast thou increased^H7235 thy riches^H2428, and thine heart^H3824 is lifted up^H1361 because of thy riches^H2428: ⁶Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Because thou hast set^H5414 thine heart^H3820 as the heart^H3824 of God^H0430; ⁷Behold, therefore I will bring^H0935 strangers^H2114 upon thee, the terrible^H6184 of the nations^H1471: and they shall draw^H7324 their swords^H2719 against the beauty^H3308 of thy wisdom^H2451, and they shall defile^H2490 thy brightness^H3314. ⁸They shall bring thee down^H3381 to the pit^H7845, and thou shalt die^H4191 the deaths^H4463 of them that are slain^H2491 in the midst^H3820 of the seas^H3220. ⁹Wilt thou yet^H0559 say^H0559 before^H6440 him that slayeth^H2026 thee, I am God^H0430? but thou shalt be a man^H0120, and no God^H0410, in the hand^H3027 of him that slayeth^H2490 thee. ¹⁰Thou shalt die^H4191 the deaths^H4194 of the uncircumcised^H6189 by the hand^H3027 of strangers^H2114: for I have spoken^H1696 it , saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

¹¹Moreover the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ¹²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, take up^H5375 a lamentation^H7015 upon the king^H4428 of Tyrus^H6865, and say^H0559 unto him, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Thou sealest up^H2856 the sum^H8508, full^H4392 of wisdom^H2451, and perfect^H3632 in beauty^H3308. ¹³Thou hast been in Eden^H5731 the garden^H1588 of God^H0430; every precious^H3368 stone^H0068 was thy covering^H4540, the sardius^H0124, topaz^H6357, and the diamond^H3095, the beryl^H8658, the onyx^H7718, and the jasper^H3471, the sapphire^H5601, the emerald^H5306, and the carbuncle^H1304, and gold^H2091: the workmanship^H4399 of thy tabrets^H8596 and of thy pipes^H5345 was prepared^H3559 in thee in the day^H3117 that thou wast created^H1254. ¹⁴Thou art the anointed^H4473 cherub^H3742 that covereth^H5526; and I have set^H5414 thee so: thou wast upon the holy^H6944 mountain^H2022 of God^H0430; thou hast walked up and down^H1980 in the midst^H8432 of the stones^H0068 of fire^H0784. ¹⁵Thou wast perfect^H8549 in thy ways^H1870 from the day^H3117 that thou wast created^H1254, till iniquity^H5766 was found^H4672 in thee. ¹⁶By the multitude^H7230 of thy merchandise^H7404 they have filled^H4390 the midst^H8432 of thee with violence^H2555, and thou hast sinned^H2398: therefore I will cast thee as profane^H2490 out of the mountain^H2022 of God^H0430: and I will destroy^H0006 thee, O covering^H5526 cherub^H3742, from the midst^H8432 of the stones^H0068 of fire^H0784. ¹⁷Thine heart^H3820 was lifted up^H1361 because of thy beauty^H3308, thou hast corrupted^H7843 thy wisdom^H2451 by reason of^H5921 thy brightness^H3314: I will cast^H7993 thee to the ground^H0776, I will lay^H5414 thee before^H6440 kings^H4428, that they may behold^H7200 thee. ¹⁸Thou hast defiled^H2490 thy sanctuaries^H4720 by the multitude^H7230 of thine iniquities^H5771, by the iniquity^H5766 of thy traffick^H7404; therefore will I bring forth^H3318 a fire^H0784 from the midst^H8432 of thee, it shall devour^H0398 thee, and I will bring^H5414 thee to ashes^H0665 upon the earth^H0776 in the sight^H5869 of all them that behold^H7200 thee. ¹⁹All they that know^H3045 thee among the people^H5971 shall be astonished^H8074 at thee: thou shalt be a terror^H1091, and never^H0369 shalt thou be any more^H5704.

²⁰Again the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²¹Son^H1121 of man^H0120, set^H7760 thy face^H6440 against Zidon^H6721, and prophesy^H5012 against it, ²²And say^H0559, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I am against thee, O Zidon^H6721; and I will be glorified^H3513 in the midst^H8432 of thee: and they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068, when I shall have executed^H6213 judgments^H8201 in her, and shall be sanctified^H6942 in her. ²³For I will send^H7971 into her pestilence^H1698, and blood^H1818 into her streets^H2351; and the wounded^H2491 shall be judged^H5307 in the midst^H8432 of her by the sword^H2719 upon her on every side^H5439; and they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068.

²⁴And there shall be no more a pricking^H3992 brier^H5544 unto the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, nor any grieving^H3510 thorn^H6975 of all that are round about^H5439 them, that despised^H7590 them; and they shall know^H3045 that I am the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ²⁵Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; When I shall have gathered^H6908 the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 from the people^H5971 among whom they are scattered^H6327, and shall be sanctified^H6942 in them in the sight^H5869 of the heathen^H1471, then shall they dwell^H3427 in their land^H0127 that I have given^H5414 to my servant^H5650 Jacob^H3290. ²⁶And they shall dwell^H3427 safely^H0983 therein, and shall build^H1129 houses^H1004, and plant^H5193 vineyards^H3754; yea, they shall dwell^H3427 with confidence^H0983, when I have executed^H6213 judgments^H8201 upon all those that despise^H7590 them round about^H5439 them; and they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068 their God^H0430.

Ezekiel: Chapter 29

¹In the tenth^H6224 year^H8141, in the tenth^H6224 month , in the twelfth^H8147 day of the month^H2320, the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, set^H7760 thy face^H6440 against Pharaoh^H6547 king^H4428 of Egypt^H4714, and prophesy^H5012 against him, and against all Egypt^H4714: ³Speak^H1696, and say^H0559, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I am against thee, Pharaoh^H6547 king^H4428 of Egypt^H4714, the great^H1419 dragon^H8577 that lieth^H7257 in the midst^H8432 of his rivers^H2975, which hath said^H0559, My river^H2975 is mine own, and I have made^H6213 it for myself. ⁴But I will put^H5414 hooks^H2397 in thy jaws^H3895, and I will cause the fish^H1710 of thy rivers^H2975 to stick^H1692 unto thy scales^H7193, and I will bring thee up^H5927 out of the midst^H8432 of thy rivers^H2975, and all the fish^H1710 of thy rivers^H2975 shall stick^H1692 unto thy scales^H7193. ⁵And I will leave^H5203 thee thrown into the wilderness^H4057, thee and all the fish^H1710 of thy rivers^H2975: thou shalt fall^H5307 upon the open^H6440 fields^H7704; thou shalt not be brought together^H0622, nor gathered^H6908: I have given^H5414 thee for meat^H0402 to the beasts^H2416 of the field^H0776 and to the fowls^H5775 of the heaven^H8064. ⁶And all the inhabitants^H3427 of Egypt^H4714 shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068, because they have been a staff^H4938 of reed^H7070 to the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478. ⁷When they took hold^H8610 of thee by thy hand^H3709, thou didst break^H7533, and rend^H1234 all their shoulder^H3802: and when they leaned^H8172 upon thee, thou brakest^H7665, and madest all their loins^H4975 to be at a stand^H5976.

⁸Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I will bring^H0935 a sword^H2719 upon thee, and cut off^H3772 man^H0120 and beast^H0929 out of thee. ⁹And the land^H0776 of Egypt^H4714 shall be desolate^H8077 and waste^H2723; and they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068: because he hath said^H0559, The river^H2975 is mine, and I have made^H6213 it . ¹⁰Behold, therefore I am against thee, and against thy rivers^H2975, and I will make^H5414 the land^H0776 of Egypt^H4714 utterly^H2721 waste^H2723 and desolate^H8077, from the tower^H4024 of Syene^H5482 even unto the border^H1366 of Ethiopia^H3568. ¹¹No foot^H7272 of man^H0120 shall pass through^H5674 it, nor foot^H7272 of beast^H0929 shall pass through^H5674 it, neither shall it be inhabited^H3427 forty^H0705 years^H8141. ¹²And I will make^H5414 the land^H0776 of Egypt^H4714 desolate^H8077 in the midst^H8432 of the countries^H0776 that are desolate^H8074, and her cities^H5892 among^H8432 the cities^H5892 that are laid waste^H2717 shall be desolate^H8077 forty^H0705 years^H8141: and I will scatter^H6327 the Egyptians^H4714 among the nations^H1471, and will disperse^H2219 them through the countries^H0776.

¹³Yet thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; At the end^H7093 of forty^H0705 years^H8141 will I gather^H6908 the Egyptians^H4714 from the people^H5971 whither they were scattered^H6327: ¹⁴And I will bring again^H7725 the captivity^H7622 of Egypt^H4714, and will cause them to return^H7725 into the land^H0776 of Pathros^H6624, into the land^H0776 of their habitation^H4351; and they shall be there a base^H8217 kingdom^H4467. ¹⁵It shall be the basest^H8217 of the kingdoms^H4467; neither shall it exalt^H5375 itself any more above the nations^H1471: for I will diminish^H4591 them, that they shall no more rule^H7287 over the nations^H1471. ¹⁶And it shall be no more the confidence^H4009 of the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, which bringeth^H2142 their iniquity^H5771 to remembrance^H2142, when they shall look^H6437 after^H0310 them: but they shall know^H3045 that I am the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

¹⁷And it came to pass in the seven^H7651 and twentieth^H6242 year^H8141, in the first^H7223 month , in the first^H0259 day of the month^H2320, the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ¹⁸Son^H1121 of man^H0120, Nebuchadrezzar^H5019 king^H4428 of Babylon^H0894 caused^H5647 his army^H2428 to serve^H5647 a great^H1419 service^H5656 against Tyrus^H6865: every head^H7218 was made bald^H7139, and every shoulder^H3802 was peeled^H4803: yet had he no wages^H7939, nor his army^H2428, for Tyrus^H6865, for the service^H5656 that he had served^H5647 against it: ¹⁹Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I will give^H5414 the land^H0776 of Egypt^H4714 unto Nebuchadrezzar^H5019 king^H4428 of Babylon^H0894; and he shall take^H5375 her multitude^H1995, and take^H7997 her spoil^H7998, and take^H0962 her prey^H0957; and it shall be the wages^H7939 for his army^H2428. ²⁰I have given^H5414 him the land^H0776 of Egypt^H4714 for his labour^H6468 wherewith he served^H5647 against it, because they wrought^H6213 for me, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

²¹In that day^H3117 will I cause^H6779 the horn^H7161 of the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 to bud forth^H6779, and I will give^H5414 thee the opening^H6610 of the mouth^H6310 in the midst^H8432 of them; and they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068.

Ezekiel: Chapter 30

¹The word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came again unto me, saying^H0559, ²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, prophesy^H5012 and say^H0559, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Howl^H3213 ye, Woe worth^H1929 the day^H3117! ³For the day^H3117 is near^H7138, even the day^H3117 of the LORD^H3068 is near^H7138, a cloudy^H6051 day^H3117; it shall be the time^H6256 of the heathen^H1471. ⁴And the sword^H2719 shall come^H0935 upon Egypt^H4714, and great pain^H2479 shall be in Ethiopia^H3568, when the slain^H2491 shall fall^H5307 in Egypt^H4714, and they shall take away^H3947 her multitude^H1995, and her foundations^H3247 shall be broken down^H2040. ⁵ Ethiopia^H3568, and Libya^H6316, and Lydia^H3865, and all the mingled^H6153 people, and Chub^H3552, and the men^H1121 of the land^H0776 that is in league^H1285, shall fall^H5307 with them by the sword^H2719. ⁶Thus saith^H0559 the LORD^H3068; They also that uphold^H5564 Egypt^H4714 shall fall^H5307; and the pride^H1347 of her power^H5797 shall come down^H3381: from the tower^H4024 of Syene^H5482 shall they fall^H5307 in it by the sword^H2719, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ⁷And they shall be desolate^H8074 in the midst^H8432 of the countries^H0776 that are desolate^H8074, and her cities^H5892 shall be in the midst^H8432 of the cities^H5892 that are wasted^H2717. ⁸And they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068, when I have set^H5414 a fire^H0784 in Egypt^H4714, and when all her helpers^H5826 shall be destroyed^H7665. ⁹In that day^H3117 shall messengers^H4397 go forth^H3318 from me^H6440 in ships^H6716 to make the careless^H0983 Ethiopians^H3568 afraid^H2729, and great pain^H2479 shall come upon them, as in the day^H3117 of Egypt^H4714: for, lo, it cometh^H0935. ¹⁰Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; I will also make the multitude^H1995 of Egypt^H4714 to cease^H7673 by the hand^H3027 of Nebuchadrezzar^H5019 king^H4428 of Babylon^H0894. ¹¹He and his people^H5971 with him, the terrible^H6184 of the nations^H1471, shall be brought^H0935 to destroy^H7843 the land^H0776: and they shall draw^H7324 their swords^H2719 against Egypt^H4714, and fill^H4390 the land^H0776 with the slain^H2491. ¹²And I will make^H5414 the rivers^H2975 dry^H2724, and sell^H4376 the land^H0776 into the hand^H3027 of the wicked^H7451: and I will make the land^H0776 waste^H8074, and all that is therein^H4393, by the hand^H3027 of strangers^H2114: I the LORD^H3068 have spoken^H1696 it . ¹³Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; I will also destroy^H0006 the idols^H1544, and I will cause their images^H0457 to cease^H7673 out of Noph^H5297; and there shall be no more a prince^H5387 of the land^H0776 of Egypt^H4714: and I will put^H5414 a fear^H3374 in the land^H0776 of Egypt^H4714. ¹⁴And I will make Pathros^H6624 desolate^H8074, and will set^H5414 fire^H0784 in Zoan^H6814, and will execute^H6213 judgments^H8201 in No^H4996. ¹⁵And I will pour^H8210 my fury^H2534 upon Sin^H5512, the strength^H4581 of Egypt^H4714; and I will cut off^H3772 the multitude^H1995 of No^H4996. ¹⁶And I will set^H5414 fire^H0784 in Egypt^H4714: Sin^H5512 shall have great^H2342 pain^H2342, and No^H4996 shall be rent asunder^H1234, and Noph^H5297 shall have distresses^H6862 daily^H3119. ¹⁷The young men^H0970 of Aven^H0206 and of Pi-beseth^H6364 shall fall^H5307 by the sword^H2719: and these cities shall go^H3212 into captivity^H7628. ¹⁸At Tehaphnehes^H8471 also the day^H3117 shall be darkened^H2821, when I shall break^H7665 there the yokes^H4133 of Egypt^H4714: and the pomp^H1347 of her strength^H5797 shall cease^H7673 in her^H1931: as for her, a cloud^H6051 shall cover^H3680 her, and her daughters^H1323 shall go^H3212 into captivity^H7628. ¹⁹Thus will I execute^H6213 judgments^H8201 in Egypt^H4714: and they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068.

²⁰And it came to pass in the eleventh^H0259 year^H8141, in the first^H7223 month , in the seventh^H7651 day of the month^H2320, that the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²¹Son^H1121 of man^H0120, I have broken^H7665 the arm^H2220 of Pharaoh^H6547 king^H4428 of Egypt^H4714; and, lo, it shall not be bound up^H2280 to be healed^H7499, to put^H7760 a roller^H2848 to bind^H2280 it, to make it strong^H2388 to hold^H8610 the sword^H2719. ²²Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I am against Pharaoh^H6547 king^H4428 of Egypt^H4714, and will break^H7665 his arms^H2220, the strong^H2389, and that which was broken^H7665; and I will cause the sword^H2719 to fall^H5307 out of his hand^H3027. ²³And I will scatter^H6327 the Egyptians^H4714 among the nations^H1471, and will disperse^H2219 them through the countries^H0776. ²⁴And I will strengthen^H2388 the arms^H2220 of the king^H4428 of Babylon^H0894, and put^H5414 my sword^H2719 in his hand^H3027: but I will break^H7665 Pharaohs^H6547 arms^H2220, and he shall groan^H5008 before^H6440 him with the groanings^H5009 of a deadly wounded^H2491 man . ²⁵But I will strengthen^H2388 the arms^H2220 of the king^H4428 of Babylon^H0894, and the arms^H2220 of Pharaoh^H6547 shall fall down^H5307; and they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068, when I shall put^H5414 my sword^H2719 into the hand^H3027 of the king^H4428 of Babylon^H0894, and he shall stretch it out^H5186 upon the land^H0776 of Egypt^H4714. ²⁶And I will scatter^H6327 the Egyptians^H4714 among the nations^H1471, and disperse^H2219 them among the countries^H0776; and they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068.

Ezekiel: Chapter 31

¹And it came to pass in the eleventh^H0259 year^H8141, in the third^H7992 month , in the first^H0259 day of the month^H2320, that the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, speak^H0559 unto Pharaoh^H6547 king^H4428 of Egypt^H4714, and to his multitude^H1995; Whom art thou like^H1819 in thy greatness^H1433?

³Behold, the Assyrian^H0804 was a cedar^H0730 in Lebanon^H3844 with fair^H3303 branches^H6057, and with a shadowing^H6751 shroud^H2793, and of an high^H1362 stature^H6967; and his top^H6788 was among the thick boughs^H5688. ⁴The waters^H4325 made him great^H1431, the deep^H8415 set him up on high^H7311 with her rivers^H5104 running^H1980 round about^H5439 his plants^H4302, and sent out^H7971 her little rivers^H8585 unto all the trees^H6086 of the field^H7704. ⁵Therefore his height^H6967 was exalted^H1361 above all the trees^H6086 of the field^H7704, and his boughs^H5634 were multiplied^H7235, and his branches^H6288 became long^H0748 because of the multitude^H7227 of waters^H4325, when he shot forth^H7971. ⁶All the fowls^H5775 of heaven^H8064 made their nests^H7077 in his boughs^H5589, and under his branches^H6288 did all the beasts^H2416 of the field^H7704 bring forth their young^H3205, and under his shadow^H6738 dwelt^H3427 all great^H7227 nations^H1471. ⁷Thus was he fair^H3302 in his greatness^H1433, in the length^H0753 of his branches^H1808: for his root^H8328 was by great^H7227 waters^H4325. ⁸The cedars^H0730 in the garden^H1588 of God^H0430 could not hide^H6004 him: the fir trees^H1265 were not like^H1819 his boughs^H5589, and the chesnut trees^H6196 were not like his branches^H6288; nor any tree^H6086 in the garden^H1588 of God^H0430 was like^H1819 unto him in his beauty^H3308. ⁹I have made^H6213 him fair^H3303 by the multitude^H7230 of his branches^H1808: so that all the trees^H6086 of Eden^H5731, that were in the garden^H1588 of God^H0430, envied^H7065 him.

¹⁰Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Because thou hast lifted up^H1361 thyself in height^H6967, and he hath shot up^H5414 his top^H6788 among the thick boughs^H5688, and his heart^H3824 is lifted up^H7311 in his height^H1363; ¹¹I have therefore delivered^H5414 him into the hand^H3027 of the mighty one^H0410 of the heathen^H1471; he shall surely^H6213 deal^H6213 with him: I have driven him out^H1644 for his wickedness^H7562. ¹²And strangers^H2114, the terrible^H6184 of the nations^H1471, have cut him off^H3772, and have left^H5203 him: upon the mountains^H2022 and in all the valleys^H1516 his branches^H1808 are fallen^H5307, and his boughs^H6288 are broken^H7665 by all the rivers^H0650 of the land^H0776; and all the people^H5971 of the earth^H0776 are gone down^H3381 from his shadow^H6738, and have left^H5203 him. ¹³Upon his ruin^H4658 shall all the fowls^H5775 of the heaven^H8064 remain^H7931, and all the beasts^H2416 of the field^H7704 shall be upon his branches^H6288: ¹⁴To the end that none of all the trees^H6086 by the waters^H4325 exalt^H1361 themselves for their height^H6967, neither shoot up^H5414 their top^H6788 among the thick boughs^H5688, neither their trees^H0352 stand up^H5975 in their height^H1363, all that drink^H8354 water^H4325: for they are all delivered^H5414 unto death^H4194, to the nether parts^H8482 of the earth^H0776, in the midst^H8432 of the children^H1121 of men^H0120, with them that go down^H3381 to the pit^H0953. ¹⁵Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; In the day^H3117 when he went down^H3381 to the grave^H7585 I caused a mourning^H0056: I covered^H3680 the deep^H8415 for him, and I restrained^H4513 the floods^H5104 thereof, and the great^H7227 waters^H4325 were stayed^H3607: and I caused Lebanon^H3844 to mourn^H6937 for him, and all the trees^H6086 of the field^H7704 fainted^H5969 for him. ¹⁶I made the nations^H1471 to shake^H7493 at the sound^H6963 of his fall^H4658, when I cast him down^H3381 to hell^H7585 with them that descend^H3381 into the pit^H0953: and all the trees^H6086 of Eden^H5731, the choice^H4005 and best^H2896 of Lebanon^H3844, all that drink^H8354 water^H4325, shall be comforted^H5162 in the nether parts^H8482 of the earth^H0776. ¹⁷They also went down^H3381 into hell^H7585 with him unto them that be slain^H2491 with the sword^H2719; and they that were his arm^H2220, that dwelt^H3427 under his shadow^H6738 in the midst^H8432 of the heathen^H1471.

¹⁸To whom art thou thus like^H1819 in glory^H3519 and in greatness^H1433 among the trees^H6086 of Eden^H5731? yet shalt thou be brought down^H3381 with the trees^H6086 of Eden^H5731 unto the nether parts^H8482 of the earth^H0776: thou shalt lie^H7901 in the midst^H8432 of the uncircumcised^H6189 with them that be slain^H2491 by the sword^H2719. This is Pharaoh^H6547 and all his multitude^H1995, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

Ezekiel: Chapter 32

¹And it came to pass in the twelfth^H8147 year^H8141, in the twelfth month^H2320, in the first^H0259 day of the month^H2320, that the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, take up^H5375 a lamentation^H7015 for Pharaoh^H6547 king^H4428 of Egypt^H4714, and say^H0559 unto him, Thou art like^H1819 a young lion^H3715 of the nations^H1471, and thou art as a whale^H8577 in the seas^H3220: and thou camest forth^H1518 with thy rivers^H5104, and troubledst^H1804 the waters^H4325 with thy feet^H7272, and fouledst^H7515 their rivers^H5104. ³Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; I will therefore spread out^H6566 my net^H7568 over thee with a company^H6951 of many^H7227 people^H5971; and they shall bring thee up^H5927 in my net^H2764. ⁴Then will I leave^H5203 thee upon the land^H0776, I will cast thee forth^H2904 upon the open^H6440 field^H7704, and will cause all the fowls^H5775 of the heaven^H8064 to remain^H7931 upon thee, and I will fill^H7646 the beasts^H2416 of the whole earth^H0776 with thee. ⁵And I will lay^H5414 thy flesh^H1320 upon the mountains^H2022, and fill^H4390 the valleys^H1516 with thy height^H7419. ⁶I will also water^H8248 with thy blood^H1818 the land^H0776 wherein thou swimmest^H6824, even to the mountains^H2022; and the rivers^H0650 shall be full^H4390 of thee. ⁷And when I shall put thee out^H3518, I will cover^H3680 the heaven^H8064, and make^H6937 the stars^H3556 thereof dark^H6937; I will cover^H3680 the sun^H8121 with a cloud^H6051, and the moon^H3394 shall not give^H0215 her light^H0216. ⁸All the bright^H3974 lights^H0216 of heaven^H8064 will I make dark^H6937 over thee, and set^H5414 darkness^H2822 upon thy land^H0776, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ⁹I will also vex^H3707 the hearts^H3820 of many^H7227 people^H5971, when I shall bring^H0935 thy destruction^H7667 among the nations^H1471, into the countries^H0776 which thou hast not known^H3045. ¹⁰Yea, I will make many^H7227 people^H5971 amazed^H8074 at thee, and their kings^H4428 shall be horribly^H8178 afraid^H8175 for thee, when I shall brandish^H5774 my sword^H2719 before them^H6440; and they shall tremble^H2729 at every moment^H7281, every man^H0376 for his own life^H5315, in the day^H3117 of thy fall^H4658.

¹¹For thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; The sword^H2719 of the king^H4428 of Babylon^H0894 shall come^H0935 upon thee. ¹²By the swords^H2719 of the mighty^H1368 will I cause thy multitude^H1995 to fall^H5307, the terrible^H6184 of the nations^H1471, all of them: and they shall spoil^H7703 the pomp^H1347 of Egypt^H4714, and all the multitude^H1995 thereof shall be destroyed^H8045. ¹³I will destroy^H0006 also all the beasts^H0929 thereof from^H5921 beside the great^H7227 waters^H4325; neither shall the foot^H7272 of man^H0120 trouble^H1804 them any more, nor the hoofs^H6541 of beasts^H0929 trouble^H1804 them. ¹⁴Then will I make their waters^H4325 deep^H8257, and cause their rivers^H5104 to run^H3212 like oil^H8081, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ¹⁵When I shall make^H5414 the land^H0776 of Egypt^H4714 desolate^H8077, and the country^H0776 shall be destitute^H8074 of that whereof it was full^H4393, when I shall smite^H5221 all them that dwell^H3427 therein, then shall they know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068. ¹⁶This is the lamentation^H7015 wherewith they shall lament^H6969 her: the daughters^H1323 of the nations^H1471 shall lament^H6969 her: they shall lament^H6969 for her, even for Egypt^H4714, and for all her multitude^H1995, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

¹⁷It came to pass also in the twelfth^H8147 year^H8141, in the fifteenth^H2568 day of the month^H2320, that the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ¹⁸Son^H1121 of man^H0120, wail^H5091 for the multitude^H1995 of Egypt^H4714, and cast them down^H3381, even her, and the daughters^H1323 of the famous^H0117 nations^H1471, unto the nether parts^H8482 of the earth^H0776, with them that go down^H3381 into the pit^H0953. ¹⁹Whom dost thou pass in beauty^H5276? go down^H3381, and be thou laid^H7901 with the uncircumcised^H6189. ²⁰They shall fall^H5307 in the midst^H8432 of them that are slain^H2491 by the sword^H2719: she is delivered^H5414 to the sword^H2719: draw^H4900 her and all her multitudes^H1995. ²¹The strong^H0410 among the mighty^H1368 shall speak^H1696 to him out of the midst^H8432 of hell^H7585 with them that help^H5826 him: they are gone down^H3381, they lie^H7901 uncircumcised^H6189, slain^H2491 by the sword^H2719. ²²Asshur^H0804 is there and all her company^H6951: his graves^H6913 are about^H5439 him: all of them slain^H2491, fallen^H5307 by the sword^H2719: ²³Whose graves^H6913 are set^H5414 in the sides^H3411 of the pit^H0953, and her company^H6951 is round about^H5439 her grave^H6900: all of them slain^H2491, fallen^H5307 by the sword^H2719, which caused^H5414 terror^H2851 in the land^H0776 of the living^H2416. ²⁴There is Elam^H5867 and all her multitude^H1995 round about^H5439 her grave^H6900, all of them slain^H2491, fallen^H5307 by the sword^H2719, which are gone down^H3381 uncircumcised^H6189 into the nether parts^H8482 of the earth^H0776, which caused^H5414 their terror^H2851 in the land^H0776 of the living^H2416; yet have they borne^H5375 their shame^H3639 with them that go down^H3381 to the pit^H0953. ²⁵They have set^H5414 her a bed^H4904 in the midst^H8432 of the slain^H2491 with all her multitude^H1995: her graves^H6913 are round about^H5439 him: all of them uncircumcised^H6189, slain^H2491 by the sword^H2719: though their terror^H2851 was caused^H5414 in the land^H0776 of the living^H2416, yet have they borne^H5375 their shame^H3639 with them that go down^H3381 to the pit^H0953: he is put^H5414 in the midst^H8432 of them that be slain^H2491. ²⁶There is Meshech^H4902, Tubal^H8422, and all her multitude^H1995: her graves^H6913 are round about^H5439 him: all of them uncircumcised^H6189, slain^H2490 by the sword^H2719, though they caused^H5414 their terror^H2851 in the land^H0776 of the living^H2416. ²⁷And they shall not lie^H7901 with the mighty^H1368 that are fallen^H5307 of the uncircumcised^H6189, which are gone down^H3381 to hell^H7585 with their weapons^H3627 of war^H4421: and they have laid^H5414 their swords^H2719 under their heads^H7218, but their iniquities^H5771 shall be upon their bones^H6106, though they were the terror^H2851 of the mighty^H1368 in the land^H0776 of the living^H2416. ²⁸Yea, thou shalt be broken^H7665 in the midst^H8432 of the uncircumcised^H6189, and shalt lie^H7901 with them that are slain^H2491 with the sword^H2719. ²⁹There is Edom^H0123, her kings^H4428, and all her princes^H5387, which with their might^H1369 are laid^H5414 by them that were slain^H2491 by the sword^H2719: they shall lie^H7901 with the uncircumcised^H6189, and with them that go down^H3381 to the pit^H0953. ³⁰There be the princes^H5257 of the north^H6828, all of them, and all the Zidonians^H6722, which are gone down^H3381 with the slain^H2491; with their terror^H2851 they are ashamed^H0954 of their might^H1369; and they lie^H7901 uncircumcised^H6189 with them that be slain^H2491 by the sword^H2719, and bear^H5375 their shame^H3639 with them that go down^H3381 to the pit^H0953. ³¹ Pharaoh^H6547 shall see^H7200 them, and shall be comforted^H5162 over all his multitude^H1995, even Pharaoh^H6547 and all his army^H2428 slain^H2491 by the sword^H2719, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ³²For I have caused^H5414 my terror^H2851 in the land^H0776 of the living^H2416: and he shall be laid^H7901 in the midst^H8432 of the uncircumcised^H6189 with them that are slain^H2491 with the sword^H2719, even Pharaoh^H6547 and all his multitude^H1995, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

Ezekiel: Chapter 33

¹Again the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, speak^H1696 to the children^H1121 of thy people^H5971, and say^H0559 unto them, When I bring^H0935 the sword^H2719 upon a land^H0776, if the people^H5971 of the land^H0776 take^H3947 a^H0259 man^H0376 of their coasts^H7097, and set^H5414 him for their watchman^H6822: ³If when he seeth^H7200 the sword^H2719 come^H0935 upon the land^H0776, he blow^H8628 the trumpet^H7782, and warn^H2094 the people^H5971; ⁴Then whosoever^H8085 heareth^H8085 the sound^H6963 of the trumpet^H7782, and taketh not warning^H2094; if the sword^H2719 come^H0935, and take him away^H3947, his blood^H1818 shall be upon his own head^H7218. ⁵He heard^H8085 the sound^H6963 of the trumpet^H7782, and took not warning^H2094; his blood^H1818 shall be upon him. But he that taketh warning^H2094 shall deliver^H4422 his soul^H5315. ⁶But if the watchman^H6822 see^H7200 the sword^H2719 come^H0935, and blow^H8628 not the trumpet^H7782, and the people^H5971 be not warned^H2094; if the sword^H2719 come^H0935, and take^H3947 any person^H5315 from among them, he is taken away^H3947 in his iniquity^H5771; but his blood^H1818 will I require^H1875 at the watchmans^H6822 hand^H3027.

⁷So thou, O son^H1121 of man^H0120, I have set^H5414 thee a watchman^H6822 unto the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478; therefore thou shalt hear^H8085 the word^H1697 at my mouth^H6310, and warn^H2094 them from me. ⁸When I say^H0559 unto the wicked^H7563, O wicked^H7563 man , thou shalt surely^H4191 die^H4191; if thou dost not speak^H1696 to warn^H2094 the wicked^H7563 from his way^H1870, that wicked^H7563 man shall die^H4191 in his iniquity^H5771; but his blood^H1818 will I require^H1245 at thine hand^H3027. ⁹Nevertheless, if thou warn^H2094 the wicked^H7563 of his way^H1870 to turn^H7725 from it; if he do not turn^H7725 from his way^H1870, he shall die^H4191 in his iniquity^H5771; but thou hast delivered^H5337 thy soul^H5315.

¹⁰Therefore, O thou son^H1121 of man^H0120, speak^H0559 unto the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478; Thus ye speak^H0559, saying^H0559, If our transgressions^H6588 and our sins^H2403 be upon us, and we pine away^H4743 in them, how should we then live^H2421? ¹¹Say^H0559 unto them, As I live^H2416, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, I have no pleasure^H2654 in the death^H4194 of the wicked^H7563; but that the wicked^H7563 turn^H7725 from his way^H1870 and live^H2421: turn^H7725 ye, turn^H7725 ye from your evil^H7451 ways^H1870; for why will ye die^H4191, O house^H1004 of Israel^H3478? ¹²Therefore, thou son^H1121 of man^H0120, say^H0559 unto the children^H1121 of thy people^H5971, The righteousness^H6666 of the righteous^H6662 shall not deliver^H5337 him in the day^H3117 of his transgression^H6588: as for the wickedness^H7564 of the wicked^H7563, he shall not fall^H3782 thereby in the day^H3117 that he turneth^H7725 from his wickedness^H7562; neither shall the righteous^H6662 be able^H3201 to live^H2421 for his righteousness in the day^H3117 that he sinneth^H2398. ¹³When I shall say^H0559 to the righteous^H6662, that he shall surely^H2421 live^H2421; if he trust^H0982 to his own righteousness^H6666, and commit^H6213 iniquity^H5766, all his righteousnesses^H6666 shall not be remembered^H2142; but for his iniquity^H5766 that he hath committed^H6213, he shall die^H4191 for it. ¹⁴Again, when I say^H0559 unto the wicked^H7563, Thou shalt surely^H4191 die^H4191; if he turn^H7725 from his sin^H2403, and do^H6213 that which is lawful^H4941 and right^H6666; ¹⁵ If the wicked^H7563 restore^H7725 the pledge^H2258, give again^H7999 that he had robbed^H1500, walk^H1980 in the statutes^H2708 of life^H2416, without committing^H6213 iniquity^H5766; he shall surely^H2421 live^H2421, he shall not die^H4191. ¹⁶None of his sins^H2403 that he hath committed^H2398 shall be mentioned^H2142 unto him: he hath done^H6213 that which is lawful^H4941 and right^H6666; he shall surely^H2421 live^H2421.

¹⁷Yet the children^H1121 of thy people^H5971 say^H0559, The way^H1870 of the Lord^H0136 is not equal^H8505: but as for them, their way^H1870 is not equal^H8505. ¹⁸When the righteous^H6662 turneth^H7725 from his righteousness^H6666, and committeth^H6213 iniquity^H5766, he shall even die^H4191 thereby. ¹⁹But if the wicked^H7563 turn^H7725 from his wickedness^H7564, and do^H6213 that which is lawful^H4941 and right^H6666, he shall live^H2421 thereby.

²⁰Yet ye say^H0559, The way^H1870 of the Lord^H0136 is not equal^H8505. O ye house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, I will judge^H8199 you every one^H0376 after his ways^H1870.

²¹And it came to pass in the twelfth^H8147 year^H8141 of our captivity^H1546, in the tenth^H6224 month , in the fifth^H2568 day of the month^H2320, that one that had escaped^H6412 out of Jerusalem^H3389 came^H0935 unto me, saying^H0559, The city^H5892 is smitten^H5221. ²²Now the hand^H3027 of the LORD^H3068 was upon me in the evening^H6153, afore^H6440 he that was escaped^H6412 came^H0935; and had opened^H6605 my mouth^H6310, until he came^H0935 to me in the morning^H1242; and my mouth^H6310 was opened^H6605, and I was no more dumb^H0481. ²³Then the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²⁴Son^H1121 of man^H0120, they that inhabit^H3427 those wastes^H2723 of the land^H0127 of Israel^H3478 speak^H0559, saying^H0559, Abraham^H0085 was one^H0259, and he inherited^H3423 the land^H0776: but we are many^H7227; the land^H0776 is given^H5414 us for inheritance^H4181. ²⁵Wherefore say^H0559 unto them, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Ye eat^H0398 with the blood^H1818, and lift up^H5375 your eyes^H5869 toward your idols^H1544, and shed^H8210 blood^H1818: and shall ye possess^H3423 the land^H0776? ²⁶Ye stand^H5975 upon your sword^H2719, ye work^H6213 abomination^H8441, and ye defile^H2930 every one^H0376 his neighbours^H7453 wife^H0802: and shall ye possess^H3423 the land^H0776? ²⁷Say^H0559 thou thus unto them, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; As I live^H2416, surely they that are in the wastes^H2723 shall fall^H5307 by the sword^H2719, and him that is in the open^H6440 field^H7704 will I give^H5414 to the beasts^H2416 to be devoured^H0398, and they that be in the forts^H4679 and in the caves^H4631 shall die^H4191 of the pestilence^H1698. ²⁸For I will lay^H5414 the land^H0776 most^H4923 desolate^H8077, and the pomp^H1347 of her strength^H5797 shall cease^H7673; and the mountains^H2022 of Israel^H3478 shall be desolate^H8074, that none shall pass through^H5674. ²⁹Then shall they know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068, when I have laid^H5414 the land^H0776 most^H4923 desolate^H8077 because of all their abominations^H8441 which they have committed^H6213.

³⁰Also, thou son^H1121 of man^H0120, the children^H1121 of thy people^H5971 still are talking^H1696 against^H0681 thee by the walls^H7023 and in the doors^H6607 of the houses^H1004, and speak^H1696 one^H2297 to another^H0259, every one^H0376 to his brother^H0251, saying^H0559, Come^H0935, I pray you, and hear^H8085 what is the word^H1697 that cometh forth^H3318 from the LORD^H3068. ³¹And they come^H0935 unto thee as the people^H5971 cometh^H3996, and they sit^H3427 before^H6440 thee as my people^H5971, and they hear^H8085 thy words^H1697, but they will not do^H6213 them: for with their mouth^H6310 they shew^H6213 much love^H5690, but their heart^H3820 goeth^H1980 after^H0310 their covetousness^H1215. ³²And, lo, thou art unto them as a very lovely^H5690 song^H7892 of one that hath a pleasant^H3303 voice^H6963, and can play well^H2895 on an instrument^H5059: for they hear^H8085 thy words^H1697, but they do^H6213 them not. ³³And when this cometh to pass^H0935, (lo, it will come^H0935,) then shall they know^H3045 that a prophet^H5030 hath been among^H8432 them.

Ezekiel: Chapter 34

¹And the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, prophesy^H5012 against the shepherds^H7462 of Israel^H3478, prophesy^H5012, and say^H0559 unto them, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069 unto the shepherds^H7462; Woe^H1945 be to the shepherds^H7462 of Israel^H3478 that do feed^H7462 themselves! should not the shepherds^H7462 feed^H7462 the flocks^H6629? ³Ye eat^H0398 the fat^H2459, and ye clothe^H3847 you with the wool^H6785, ye kill^H2076 them that are fed^H1277: but ye feed^H7462 not the flock^H6629. ⁴The diseased^H2470 have ye not strengthened^H2388, neither have ye healed^H7495 that which was sick^H2470, neither have ye bound up^H2280 that which was broken^H7665, neither have ye brought again^H7725 that which was driven away^H5080, neither have ye sought^H1245 that which was lost^H0006; but with force^H2394 and with cruelty^H6531 have ye ruled^H7287 them. ⁵And they were scattered^H6327, because there is no shepherd^H7462: and they became meat^H0402 to all the beasts^H2416 of the field^H7704, when they were scattered^H6327. ⁶My sheep^H6629 wandered^H7686 through all the mountains^H2022, and upon every high^H7311 hill^H1389: yea, my flock^H6629 was scattered^H6327 upon all the face^H6440 of the earth^H0776, and none did search^H1875 or seek^H1245 after them .

⁷Therefore, ye shepherds^H7462, hear^H8085 the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068; ⁸ As I live^H2416, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, surely because my flock^H6629 became a prey^H0957, and my flock^H6629 became meat^H0402 to every beast^H2416 of the field^H7704, because there was no shepherd^H7462, neither did my shepherds^H7462 search^H1875 for my flock^H6629, but the shepherds^H7462 fed^H7462 themselves, and fed^H7462 not my flock^H6629; ⁹Therefore, O ye shepherds^H7462, hear^H8085 the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068; ¹⁰Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I am against the shepherds^H7462; and I will require^H1875 my flock^H6629 at their hand^H3027, and cause them to cease^H7673 from feeding^H7462 the flock^H6629; neither shall the shepherds^H7462 feed^H7462 themselves any more; for I will deliver^H5337 my flock^H6629 from their mouth^H6310, that they may not be meat^H0402 for them.

¹¹For thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I, even I, will both search^H1875 my sheep^H6629, and seek them out^H1239. ¹²As a shepherd^H7462 seeketh out^H1243 his flock^H5739 in the day^H3117 that he is among^H8432 his sheep^H6629 that are scattered^H6567; so will I seek out^H1239 my sheep^H6629, and will deliver^H5337 them out of all places^H4725 where they have been scattered^H6327 in the cloudy^H6051 and dark^H6205 day^H3117. ¹³And I will bring them out^H3318 from the people^H5971, and gather^H6908 them from the countries^H0776, and will bring^H0935 them to their own land^H0127, and feed^H7462 them upon the mountains^H2022 of Israel^H3478 by the rivers^H0650, and in all the inhabited places^H4186 of the country^H0776. ¹⁴I will feed^H7462 them in a good^H2896 pasture^H4829, and upon the high^H4791 mountains^H2022 of Israel^H3478 shall their fold^H5116 be: there shall they lie^H7257 in a good^H2896 fold^H5116, and in a fat^H8082 pasture^H4829 shall they feed^H7462 upon the mountains^H2022 of Israel^H3478. ¹⁵I will feed^H7462 my flock^H6629, and I will cause them to lie down^H7257, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ¹⁶I will seek^H1245 that which was lost^H0006, and bring again^H7725 that which was driven away^H5080, and will bind up^H2280 that which was broken^H7665, and will strengthen^H2388 that which was sick^H2470: but I will destroy^H8045 the fat^H8082 and the strong^H2389; I will feed^H7462 them with judgment^H4941.

¹⁷And as for you^H0859, O my flock^H6629, thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I judge^H8199 between cattle^H7716 and cattle^H7716, between the rams^H0352 and the he goats^H6260. ¹⁸ Seemeth it a small thing^H4592 unto you to have eaten up^H7462 the good^H2896 pasture^H4829, but ye must tread down^H7429 with your feet^H7272 the residue^H3499 of your pastures^H4829? and to have drunk^H8354 of the deep^H4950 waters^H4325, but ye must foul^H7515 the residue^H3498 with your feet^H7272? ¹⁹And as for my flock^H6629, they eat^H7462 that which ye have trodden^H4823 with your feet^H7272; and they drink^H8354 that which ye have fouled^H4833 with your feet^H7272.

²⁰Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069 unto them; Behold, I, even I, will judge^H8199 between the fat^H1274 cattle^H7716 and between the lean^H7330 cattle^H7716. ²¹Because ye have thrust^H1920 with side^H6654 and with shoulder^H3802, and pushed^H5055 all the diseased^H2470 with your horns^H7161, till ye have scattered^H6327 them abroad^H2351; ²²Therefore will I save^H3467 my flock^H6629, and they shall no more be a prey^H0957; and I will judge^H8199 between cattle^H7716 and cattle^H7716. ²³And I will set up^H6965 one^H0259 shepherd^H7462 over them, and he shall feed^H7462 them, even my servant^H5650 David^H1732; he shall feed^H7462 them, and he shall be their shepherd^H7462. ²⁴And I the LORD^H3068 will be their God^H0430, and my servant^H5650 David^H1732 a prince^H5387 among^H8432 them; I the LORD^H3068 have spoken^H1696 it . ²⁵And I will make^H3772 with them a covenant^H1285 of peace^H7965, and will cause the evil^H7451 beasts^H2416 to cease^H7673 out of the land^H0776: and they shall dwell^H3427 safely^H0983 in the wilderness^H4057, and sleep^H3462 in the woods^H3293. ²⁶And I will make^H5414 them and the places round about^H5439 my hill^H1389 a blessing^H1293; and I will cause the shower^H1653 to come down^H3381 in his season^H6256; there shall be showers^H1653 of blessing^H1293. ²⁷And the tree^H6086 of the field^H7704 shall yield^H5414 her fruit^H6529, and the earth^H0776 shall yield^H5414 her increase^H2981, and they shall be safe^H0983 in their land^H0127, and shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068, when I have broken^H7665 the bands^H4133 of their yoke^H5923, and delivered^H5337 them out of the hand^H3027 of those that served^H5647 themselves of them. ²⁸And they shall no more be a prey^H0957 to the heathen^H1471, neither shall the beast^H2416 of the land^H0776 devour^H0398 them; but they shall dwell^H3427 safely^H0983, and none shall make them afraid^H2729. ²⁹And I will raise up^H6965 for them a plant^H4302 of renown^H8034, and they shall be no more consumed^H0622 with hunger^H7458 in the land^H0776, neither bear^H5375 the shame^H3639 of the heathen^H1471 any more. ³⁰Thus shall they know^H3045 that I the LORD^H3068 their God^H0430 am with them, and that they, even the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, are my people^H5971, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ³¹And ye^H0859 my flock^H6629, the flock^H6629 of my pasture^H4830, are men^H0120, and I am your God^H0430, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

Ezekiel: Chapter 35

¹Moreover the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, set^H7760 thy face^H6440 against mount^H2022 Seir^H8165, and prophesy^H5012 against it, ³And say^H0559 unto it, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, O mount^H2022 Seir^H8165, I am against thee, and I will stretch out^H5186 mine hand^H3027 against thee, and I will make^H5414 thee most^H4923 desolate^H8077. ⁴I will lay^H7760 thy cities^H5892 waste^H2723, and thou shalt be desolate^H8077, and thou shalt know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068. ⁵Because thou hast had a perpetual^H5769 hatred^H0342, and hast shed^H5064 the blood of the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478 by the force^H3027 of the sword^H2719 in the time^H6256 of their calamity^H0343, in the time^H6256 that their iniquity^H5771 had an end^H7093: ⁶Therefore, as I live^H2416, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, I will prepare^H6213 thee unto blood^H1818, and blood^H1818 shall pursue^H7291 thee: sith^H0518 thou hast not hated^H8130 blood^H1818, even blood^H1818 shall pursue^H7291 thee. ⁷Thus will I make^H5414 mount^H2022 Seir^H8165 most^H8077 desolate^H8077, and cut off^H3772 from it him that passeth out^H5674 and him that returneth^H7725. ⁸And I will fill^H4390 his mountains^H2022 with his slain^H2491 men: in thy hills^H1389, and in thy valleys^H1516, and in all thy rivers^H0650, shall they fall^H5307 that are slain^H2491 with the sword^H2719. ⁹I will make^H5414 thee perpetual^H5769 desolations^H8077, and thy cities^H5892 shall not return^H7725: and ye shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068.

¹⁰Because thou hast said^H0559, These two^H8147 nations^H1471 and these two^H8147 countries^H0776 shall be mine, and we will possess^H3423 it; whereas the LORD^H3068 was there: ¹¹Therefore, as I live^H2416, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, I will even do^H6213 according to thine anger^H0639, and according to thine envy^H7068 which thou hast used^H6213 out of thy hatred^H8135 against them; and I will make myself known^H3045 among them, when I have judged^H8199 thee. ¹²And thou shalt know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068, and that I have heard^H8085 all thy blasphemies^H5007 which thou hast spoken^H0559 against the mountains^H2022 of Israel^H3478, saying^H0559, They are laid desolate^H8074, they are given^H5414 us to consume^H0402. ¹³Thus with your mouth^H6310 ye have boasted^H1431 against me, and have multiplied^H6280 your words^H1697 against me: I have heard^H8085 them . ¹⁴Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; When the whole earth^H0776 rejoiceth^H8055, I will make^H6213 thee desolate^H8077. ¹⁵As thou didst rejoice^H8057 at the inheritance^H5159 of the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, because it was desolate^H8074, so will I do^H6213 unto thee: thou shalt be desolate^H8077, O mount^H2022 Seir^H8165, and all Idumea^H0123, even all of it: and they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068.

Ezekiel: Chapter 36

¹Also, thou son^H1121 of man^H0120, prophesy^H5012 unto the mountains^H2022 of Israel^H3478, and say^H0559, Ye mountains^H2022 of Israel^H3478, hear^H8085 the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068: ²Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Because the enemy^H0341 hath said^H0559 against you, Aha^H1889, even the ancient^H5769 high places^H1116 are ours in possession^H4181: ³Therefore prophesy^H5012 and say^H0559, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Because they have made you desolate^H8074, and swallowed you up^H7602 on every side^H5439, that ye might be a possession^H4181 unto the residue^H7611 of the heathen^H1471, and ye are taken up^H5927 in the lips^H8193 of talkers^H3956, and are an infamy^H1681 of the people^H5971: ⁴Therefore, ye mountains^H2022 of Israel^H3478, hear^H8085 the word^H1697 of the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069 to the mountains^H2022, and to the hills^H1389, to the rivers^H0650, and to the valleys^H1516, to the desolate^H8074 wastes^H2723, and to the cities^H5892 that are forsaken^H5800, which became a prey^H0957 and derision^H3933 to the residue^H7611 of the heathen^H1471 that are round about^H5439; ⁵Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Surely in the fire^H0784 of my jealousy^H7068 have I spoken^H1696 against the residue^H7611 of the heathen^H1471, and against all Idumea^H0123, which have appointed^H5414 my land^H0776 into their possession^H4181 with the joy^H8057 of all their heart^H3824, with despiteful^H7589 minds^H5315, to cast it out^H4054 for a prey^H0957. ⁶Prophesy^H5012 therefore concerning the land^H0127 of Israel^H3478, and say^H0559 unto the mountains^H2022, and to the hills^H1389, to the rivers^H0650, and to the valleys^H1516, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I have spoken^H1696 in my jealousy^H7068 and in my fury^H2534, because ye have borne^H5375 the shame^H3639 of the heathen^H1471: ⁷Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; I have lifted up^H5375 mine hand^H3027, Surely the heathen^H1471 that are about^H5439 you, they shall bear^H5375 their shame^H3639.

⁸But ye, O mountains^H2022 of Israel^H3478, ye shall shoot forth^H5414 your branches^H6057, and yield^H5375 your fruit^H6529 to my people^H5971 of Israel^H3478; for they are at hand^H7126 to come^H0935. ⁹For, behold, I am for you, and I will turn^H6437 unto you, and ye shall be tilled^H5647 and sown^H2232: ¹⁰And I will multiply^H7235 men^H0120 upon you, all the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, even all of it: and the cities^H5892 shall be inhabited^H3427, and the wastes^H2723 shall be builded^H1129: ¹¹And I will multiply^H7235 upon you man^H0120 and beast^H0929; and they shall increase^H7235 and bring fruit^H6509: and I will settle^H3427 you after your old estates^H6927, and will do better^H2895 unto you than at your beginnings^H7221: and ye shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068. ¹²Yea, I will cause men^H0120 to walk^H3212 upon you, even my people^H5971 Israel^H3478; and they shall possess^H3423 thee, and thou shalt be their inheritance^H5159, and thou shalt no more^H3254 henceforth bereave^H7921 them of men . ¹³Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Because they say^H0559 unto you, Thou land devourest up^H0398 men^H0120, and hast bereaved^H7921 thy nations^H1471; ¹⁴Therefore thou shalt devour^H0398 men^H0120 no more, neither bereave^H7921 thy nations^H1471 any more, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ¹⁵Neither will I cause men to hear^H8085 in thee the shame^H3639 of the heathen^H1471 any more, neither shalt thou bear^H5375 the reproach^H2781 of the people^H5971 any more, neither shalt thou cause thy nations^H1471 to fall^H3782 any more, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

¹⁶Moreover the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ¹⁷Son^H1121 of man^H0120, when the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 dwelt^H3427 in their own land^H0127, they defiled^H2930 it by their own way^H1870 and by their doings^H5949: their way^H1870 was before^H6440 me as the uncleanness^H2932 of a removed woman^H5079. ¹⁸Wherefore I poured^H8210 my fury^H2534 upon them for the blood^H1818 that they had shed^H8210 upon the land^H0776, and for their idols^H1544 wherewith they had polluted^H2930 it: ¹⁹And I scattered^H6327 them among the heathen^H1471, and they were dispersed^H2219 through the countries^H0776: according to their way^H1870 and according to their doings^H5949 I judged^H8199 them. ²⁰And when they entered^H0935 unto the heathen^H1471, whither they went^H0935, they profaned^H2490 my holy^H6944 name^H8034, when they said^H0559 to them, These are the people^H5971 of the LORD^H3068, and are gone forth^H3318 out of his land^H0776.

²¹But I had pity^H2550 for mine holy^H6944 name^H8034, which the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 had profaned^H2490 among the heathen^H1471, whither they went^H0935. ²²Therefore say^H0559 unto the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; I do^H6213 not this for your sakes, O house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, but for mine holy^H6944 names^H8034 sake, which ye have profaned^H2490 among the heathen^H1471, whither ye went^H0935. ²³And I will sanctify^H6942 my great^H1419 name^H8034, which was profaned^H2490 among the heathen^H1471, which ye have profaned^H2490 in the midst^H8432 of them; and the heathen^H1471 shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, when I shall be sanctified^H6942 in you before their eyes^H5869. ²⁴For I will take^H3947 you from among^H4480 the heathen^H1471, and gather^H6908 you out of all countries^H0776, and will bring^H0935 you into your own land^H0127.

²⁵Then will I sprinkle^H2236 clean^H2889 water^H4325 upon you, and ye shall be clean^H2891: from all your filthiness^H2932, and from all your idols^H1544, will I cleanse^H2891 you. ²⁶A new^H2319 heart^H3820 also will I give^H5414 you, and a new^H2319 spirit^H7307 will I put^H5414 within^H7130 you: and I will take away^H5493 the stony^H0068 heart^H3820 out of your flesh^H1320, and I will give^H5414 you an heart^H3820 of flesh^H1320. ²⁷And I will put^H5414 my spirit^H7307 within^H7130 you, and cause^H6213 you to walk^H3212 in my statutes^H2706, and ye shall keep^H8104 my judgments^H4941, and do^H6213 them . ²⁸And ye shall dwell^H3427 in the land^H0776 that I gave^H5414 to your fathers^H0001; and ye shall be my people^H5971, and I will be your God^H0430. ²⁹I will also save^H3467 you from all your uncleannesses^H2932: and I will call^H7121 for the corn^H1715, and will increase^H7235 it, and lay^H5414 no famine^H7458 upon you. ³⁰And I will multiply^H7235 the fruit^H6529 of the tree^H6086, and the increase^H8570 of the field^H7704, that ye shall receive^H3947 no more reproach^H2781 of famine^H7458 among the heathen^H1471. ³¹Then shall ye remember^H2142 your own evil^H7451 ways^H1870, and your doings^H4611 that were not good^H2896, and shall lothe^H6962 yourselves in your own sight^H6440 for your iniquities^H5771 and for your abominations^H8441. ³²Not for your sakes do^H6213 I this , saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, be it known^H3045 unto you: be ashamed^H0954 and confounded^H3637 for your own ways^H1870, O house^H1004 of Israel^H3478. ³³Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; In the day^H3117 that I shall have cleansed^H2891 you from all your iniquities^H5771 I will also cause you to dwell^H3427 in the cities^H5892, and the wastes^H2723 shall be builded^H1129. ³⁴And the desolate^H8074 land^H0776 shall be tilled^H5647, whereas it lay desolate^H8077 in the sight^H5869 of all that passed by^H5674. ³⁵And they shall say^H0559, This^H1977 land^H0776 that was desolate^H8074 is become like the garden^H1588 of Eden^H5731; and the waste^H2720 and desolate^H8074 and ruined^H2040 cities^H5892 are become fenced^H1219, and are inhabited^H3427. ³⁶Then the heathen^H1471 that are left^H7604 round about^H5439 you shall know^H3045 that I the LORD^H3068 build^H1129 the ruined^H2040 places, and plant^H5193 that that was desolate^H8074: I the LORD^H3068 have spoken^H1696 it , and I will do^H6213 it . ³⁷Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; I will yet for this be enquired^H1875 of by the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, to do^H6213 it for them; I will increase^H7235 them with men^H0120 like a flock^H6629. ³⁸As the holy^H6944 flock^H6629, as the flock^H6629 of Jerusalem^H3389 in her solemn feasts^H4150; so shall the waste^H2720 cities^H5892 be filled^H4392 with flocks^H6629 of men^H0120: and they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068.

¹The hand^H3027 of the LORD^H3068 was upon me, and carried me out^H3318 in the spirit^H7307 of the LORD^H3068, and set me down^H5117 in the midst^H8432 of the valley^H1237 which was full^H4392 of bones^H6106, ²And caused me to pass^H5674 by them round about^H5439: and, behold, there were very^H3966 many^H7227 in the open^H6440 valley^H1237; and, lo, they were very^H3966 dry^H3002. ³And he said^H0559 unto me, Son^H1121 of man^H0120, can these bones^H6106 live^H2421? And I answered^H0559, O Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, thou knowest^H3045. ⁴Again he said^H0559 unto me, Prophesy^H5012 upon these bones^H6106, and say^H0559 unto them, O ye dry^H3002 bones^H6106, hear^H8085 the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068. ⁵Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069 unto these bones^H6106; Behold, I will cause breath^H7307 to enter^H0935 into you, and ye shall live^H2421: ⁶And I will lay^H5414 sinews^H1517 upon you, and will bring up^H5927 flesh^H1320 upon you, and cover^H7159 you with skin^H5785, and put^H5414 breath^H7307 in you, and ye shall live^H2421; and ye shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068. ⁷So I prophesied^H5012 as I was commanded^H6680: and as I prophesied^H5012, there was a noise^H6963, and behold a shaking^H7494, and the bones^H6106 came together^H7126, bone^H6106 to his bone^H6106. ⁸And when I beheld^H7200, lo, the sinews^H1517 and the flesh^H1320 came up^H5927 upon them, and the skin^H5785 covered^H7159 them above^H4605: but there was no breath^H7307 in them. ⁹Then said^H0559 he unto me, Prophesy^H5012 unto the wind^H7307, prophesy^H5012, son^H1121 of man^H0120, and say^H0559 to the wind^H7307, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Come^H0935 from the four^H0702 winds^H7307, O breath^H7307, and breathe^H5301 upon these slain^H2026, that they may live^H2421. ¹⁰So I prophesied^H5012 as he commanded^H6680 me, and the breath^H7307 came^H0935 into them, and they lived^H2421, and stood up^H5975 upon their feet^H7272, an exceeding^H3966 great^H1419 army^H2428.

¹¹Then he said^H0559 unto me, Son^H1121 of man^H0120, these bones^H6106 are the whole house^H1004 of Israel^H3478: behold, they say^H0559, Our bones^H6106 are dried^H3001, and our hope^H8615 is lost^H0006: we are cut off^H1504 for our parts. ¹²Therefore prophesy^H5012 and say^H0559 unto them, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, O my people^H5971, I will open^H6605 your graves^H6913, and cause you to come up^H5927 out of your graves^H6913, and bring^H0935 you into the land^H0127 of Israel^H3478. ¹³And ye shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068, when I have opened^H6605 your graves^H6913, O my people^H5971, and brought you up^H5927 out of your graves^H6913, ¹⁴And shall put^H5414 my spirit^H7307 in you, and ye shall live^H2421, and I shall place^H3240 you in your own land^H0127: then shall ye know^H3045 that I the LORD^H3068 have spoken^H1696 it , and performed^H6213 it , saith^H5002 the LORD^H3068.

¹⁵The word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came again unto me, saying^H0559, ¹⁶Moreover, thou son^H1121 of man^H0120, take^H3947 thee one^H0259 stick^H6086, and write^H3789 upon it, For Judah^H3063, and for the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478 his companions^H2270: then take^H3947 another^H0259 stick^H6086, and write^H3789 upon it, For Joseph^H3130, the stick^H6086 of Ephraim^H0669, and for all the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 his companions^H2270: ¹⁷And join^H7126 them one^H0259 to another^H0259 into one^H0259 stick^H6086; and they shall become one^H0259 in thine hand^H3027.

¹⁸And when the children^H1121 of thy people^H5971 shall speak^H0559 unto thee, saying^H0559, Wilt thou not shew^H5046 us what thou meanest by these? ¹⁹Say^H1696 unto them, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I will take^H3947 the stick^H6086 of Joseph^H3130, which is in the hand^H3027 of Ephraim^H0669, and the tribes^H7626 of Israel^H3478 his fellows^H2270, and will put^H5414 them with him, even with the stick^H6086 of Judah^H3063, and make^H6213 them one^H0259 stick^H6086, and they shall be one^H0259 in mine hand^H3027.

²⁰And the sticks^H6086 whereon thou writest^H3789 shall be in thine hand^H3027 before their eyes^H5869. ²¹And say^H1696 unto them, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I will take^H3947 the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478 from among^H0996 the heathen^H1471, whither they be gone^H1980, and will gather^H6908 them on every side^H5439, and bring^H0935 them into their own land^H0127: ²²And I will make^H6213 them one^H0259 nation^H1471 in the land^H0776 upon the mountains^H2022 of Israel^H3478; and one^H0259 king^H4428 shall be king^H4428 to them all: and they shall be^H5750 no more two^H8147 nations^H1471, neither shall they be divided^H2673 into two^H8147 kingdoms^H4467 any more at all: ²³Neither shall they defile^H2930 themselves any more with their idols^H1544, nor with their detestable things^H8251, nor with any of their transgressions^H6588: but I will save^H3467 them out of all their dwellingplaces^H4186, wherein they have sinned^H2398, and will cleanse^H2891 them: so shall they be my people^H5971, and I will be their God^H0430. ²⁴And David^H1732 my servant^H5650 shall be king^H4428 over them; and they all shall have one^H0259 shepherd^H7462: they shall also walk^H3212 in my judgments^H4941, and observe^H8104 my statutes^H2708, and do^H6213 them. ²⁵And they shall dwell^H3427 in the land^H0776 that I have given^H5414 unto Jacob^H3290 my servant^H5650, wherein your fathers^H0001 have dwelt^H3427; and they shall dwell^H3427 therein, even they, and their children^H1121, and their childrens^H1121 children^H1121 for ever^H5769: and my servant^H5650 David^H1732 shall be their prince^H5387 for^H5704 ever^H5769. ²⁶Moreover I will make^H3772 a covenant^H1285 of peace^H7965 with them; it shall be an everlasting^H5769 covenant^H1285 with them: and I will place^H5414 them, and multiply^H7235 them, and will set^H5414 my sanctuary^H4720 in the midst^H8432 of them for evermore^H5769. ²⁷My tabernacle^H4908 also shall be with them: yea, I will be their God^H0430, and they shall be my people^H5971. ²⁸And the heathen^H1471 shall know^H3045 that I the LORD^H3068 do sanctify^H6942 Israel^H3478, when my sanctuary^H4720 shall be in the midst^H8432 of them for evermore^H5769.

Ezekiel: Chapter 38

¹And the word^H1697 of the LORD^H3068 came unto me, saying^H0559, ²Son^H1121 of man^H0120, set^H7760 thy face^H6440 against Gog^H1463, the land^H0776 of Magog^H4031, the chief^H7218 prince^H5387 of Meshech^H4902 and Tubal^H8422, and prophesy^H5012 against him, ³And say^H0559, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog^H1463, the chief^H7218 prince^H5387 of Meshech^H4902 and Tubal^H8422: ⁴And I will turn thee back^H7725, and put^H5414 hooks^H2397 into thy jaws^H3895, and I will bring thee forth^H3318, and all thine army^H2428, horses^H5483 and horsemen^H6571, all of them clothed^H3847 with all sorts^H4358 of armour, even a great^H7227 company^H6951 with bucklers^H6793 and shields^H4043, all of them handling^H8610 swords^H2719: ⁵ Persia^H6539, Ethiopia^H3568, and Libya^H6316 with them; all of them with shield^H4043 and helmet^H3553: ⁶ Gomer^H1586, and all his bands^H0102; the house^H1004 of Togarmah^H8425 of the north^H6828 quarters^H3411, and all his bands^H0102: and many^H7227 people^H5971 with thee. ⁷Be thou prepared^H3559, and prepare^H3559 for thyself, thou, and all thy company^H6951 that are assembled^H6950 unto thee, and be thou a guard^H4929 unto them.

⁸After many^H7227 days^H3117 thou shalt be visited^H6485: in the latter^H0319 years^H8141 thou shalt come^H0935 into the land^H0776 that is brought back^H7725 from the sword^H2719, and is gathered^H6908 out of many^H7227 people^H5971, against the mountains^H2022 of Israel^H3478, which have been always^H8548 waste^H2723: but it is brought forth^H3318 out of the nations^H5971, and they shall dwell^H3427 safely^H0983 all of them. ⁹Thou shalt ascend^H5927 and come^H0935 like a storm^H7722, thou shalt be like a cloud^H6051 to cover^H3680 the land^H0776, thou, and all thy bands^H0102, and many^H7227 people^H5971 with thee. ¹⁰Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time^H3117 shall things^H1697 come^H5927 into thy mind^H3824, and thou shalt think^H2803 an evil^H7451 thought^H4284: ¹¹And thou shalt say^H0559, I will go up^H5927 to the land^H0776 of unwalled villages^H6519; I will go^H0935 to them that are at rest^H8252, that dwell^H3427 safely^H0983, all of them dwelling^H3427 without walls^H2346, and having neither bars^H1280 nor gates^H1817, ¹²To take^H7997 a spoil^H7998, and to take^H0962 a prey^H0957; to turn^H7725 thine hand^H3027 upon the desolate places^H2723 that are now inhabited^H3427, and upon the people^H5971 that are gathered^H0622 out of the nations^H1471, which have gotten^H6213 cattle^H4735 and goods^H7075, that dwell^H3427 in the midst^H2872 of the land^H0776. ¹³ Sheba^H7614, and Dedan^H1719, and the merchants^H5503 of Tarshish^H8659, with all the young lions^H3715 thereof, shall say^H0559 unto thee, Art thou come^H0935 to take^H7997 a spoil^H7998? hast thou gathered^H6950 thy company^H6951 to take^H0962 a prey^H0957? to carry away^H5375 silver^H3701 and gold^H2091, to take away^H3947 cattle^H4735 and goods^H7075, to take^H7997 a great^H1419 spoil^H7998?

¹⁴Therefore, son^H1121 of man^H0120, prophesy^H5012 and say^H0559 unto Gog^H1463, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; In that day^H3117 when my people^H5971 of Israel^H3478 dwelleth^H3427 safely^H0983, shalt thou not know^H3045 it ? ¹⁵And thou shalt come^H0935 from thy place^H4725 out of the north^H6828 parts^H3411, thou, and many^H7227 people^H5971 with thee, all of them riding^H7392 upon horses^H5483, a great^H1419 company^H6951, and a mighty^H7227 army^H2428: ¹⁶And thou shalt come up^H5927 against my people^H5971 of Israel^H3478, as a cloud^H6051 to cover^H3680 the land^H0776; it shall be in the latter^H0319 days^H3117, and I will bring^H0935 thee against my land^H0776, that the heathen^H1471 may know^H3045 me, when I shall be sanctified^H6942 in thee, O Gog^H1463, before their eyes^H5869. ¹⁷Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Art thou he of whom I have spoken^H1696 in old^H6931 time^H3117 by^H3027 my servants^H5650 the prophets^H5030 of Israel^H3478, which prophesied^H5012 in those days^H3117 many years^H8141 that I would bring^H0935 thee against them? ¹⁸And it shall come to pass at the same time^H3117 when^H3117 Gog^H1463 shall come^H0935 against the land^H0127 of Israel^H3478, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, that my fury^H2534 shall come up^H5927 in my face^H0639. ¹⁹For in my jealousy^H7068 and in the fire^H0784 of my wrath^H5678 have I spoken^H1696, Surely in that day^H3117 there shall be a great^H1419 shaking^H7494 in the land^H0127 of Israel^H3478; ²⁰So that the fishes^H1709 of the sea^H3220, and the fowls^H5775 of the heaven^H8064, and the beasts^H2416 of the field^H7704, and all creeping things^H7431 that creep^H7430 upon the earth^H0127, and all the men^H0120 that are upon the face^H6440 of the earth^H0127, shall shake^H7493 at my presence^H6440, and the mountains^H2022 shall be thrown down^H2040, and the steep places^H4095 shall fall^H5307, and every wall^H2346 shall fall^H5307 to the ground^H0776. ²¹And I will call^H7121 for a sword^H2719 against him throughout all my mountains^H2022, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069: every mans^H0376 sword^H2719 shall be against his brother^H0251. ²²And I will plead^H8199 against him with pestilence^H1698 and with blood^H1818; and I will rain^H4305 upon him, and upon his bands^H0102, and upon the many^H7227 people^H5971 that are with him, an overflowing^H7857 rain^H1653, and great hailstones^H0417, fire^H0784, and brimstone^H1614. ²³Thus will I magnify^H1431 myself, and sanctify^H6942 myself; and I will be known^H3045 in the eyes^H5869 of many^H7227 nations^H1471, and they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068.

Ezekiel: Chapter 39

¹Therefore, thou son^H1121 of man^H0120, prophesy^H5012 against Gog^H1463, and say^H0559, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog^H1463, the chief^H7218 prince^H5387 of Meshech^H4902 and Tubal^H8422: ²And I will turn thee back^H7725, and leave but the sixth part^H8338 of thee, and will cause thee to come up^H5927 from the north^H6828 parts^H3411, and will bring^H0935 thee upon the mountains^H2022 of Israel^H3478: ³And I will smite^H5221 thy bow^H7198 out of thy left^H8040 hand^H3027, and will cause thine arrows^H2671 to fall^H5307 out of thy right^H3225 hand^H3027. ⁴Thou shalt fall^H5307 upon the mountains^H2022 of Israel^H3478, thou, and all thy bands^H0102, and the people^H5971 that is with thee: I will give^H5414 thee unto the ravenous^H5861 birds^H6833 of every sort^H3671, and to the beasts^H2416 of the field^H7704 to be devoured^H0402. ⁵Thou shalt fall^H5307 upon the open^H6440 field^H7704: for I have spoken^H1696 it , saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ⁶And I will send^H7971 a fire^H0784 on Magog^H4031, and among them that dwell^H3427 carelessly^H0983 in the isles^H0339: and they shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068. ⁷So will I make my holy^H6944 name^H8034 known^H3045 in the midst^H8432 of my people^H5971 Israel^H3478; and I will not let them pollute^H2490 my holy^H6944 name^H8034 any more: and the heathen^H1471 shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068, the Holy One^H6918 in Israel^H3478.

⁸Behold, it is come^H0935, and it is done^H1961, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; this is the day^H3117 whereof I have spoken^H1696. ⁹And they that dwell^H3427 in the cities^H5892 of Israel^H3478 shall go forth^H3318, and shall set^H1197 on fire^H0784 and burn^H5400 the weapons^H5402, both the shields^H4043 and the bucklers^H6793, the bows^H7198 and the arrows^H2671, and the handstaves^H3027, and the spears^H7420, and they shall burn^H1197 them with fire^H0784 seven^H7651 years^H8141: ¹⁰So that they shall take^H5375 no wood^H6086 out of the field^H7704, neither cut down^H2404 any out of the forests^H3293; for they shall burn^H1197 the weapons^H5402 with fire^H0784: and they shall spoil^H7997 those that spoiled^H7997 them, and rob^H0962 those that robbed^H0962 them, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

¹¹And it shall come to pass in that day^H3117, that I will give^H5414 unto Gog^H1463 a place^H4725 there of graves^H6913 in Israel^H3478, the valley^H1516 of the passengers^H5674 on the east^H6926 of the sea^H3220: and it shall stop^H2629 the noses of the passengers^H5674: and there shall they bury^H6912 Gog^H1463 and all his multitude^H1995: and they shall call^H7121 it The valley^H1516 of Hamon-gog^H1996. ¹²And seven^H7651 months^H2320 shall the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 be burying^H6912 of them, that they may cleanse^H2891 the land^H0776. ¹³Yea, all the people^H5971 of the land^H0776 shall bury^H6912 them; and it shall be to them a renown^H8034 the day^H3117 that I shall be glorified^H3513, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ¹⁴And they shall sever out^H0914 men^H0582 of continual employment^H8548, passing through^H5674 the land^H0776 to bury^H6912 with the passengers^H5674 those that remain^H3498 upon the face^H6440 of the earth^H0776, to cleanse^H2891 it: after the end^H7097 of seven^H7651 months^H2320 shall they search^H2713. ¹⁵And the passengers^H5674 that pass through^H5674 the land^H0776, when any seeth^H7200 a mans^H0120 bone^H6106, then shall he set up^H1129 a sign^H6725 by^H0681 it, till the buriers^H6912 have buried^H6912 it in the valley^H1516 of Hamon-gog^H1996. ¹⁶And also the name^H8034 of the city^H5892 shall be Hamonah^H1997. Thus shall they cleanse^H2891 the land^H0776.

¹⁷And, thou son^H1121 of man^H0120, thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Speak^H0559 unto every feathered^H3671 fowl^H6833, and to every beast^H2416 of the field^H7704, Assemble^H6908 yourselves, and come^H0935; gather^H0622 yourselves on every side^H5439 to my sacrifice^H2077 that I do sacrifice^H2076 for you, even a great^H1419 sacrifice^H2077 upon the mountains^H2022 of Israel^H3478, that ye may eat^H0398 flesh^H1320, and drink^H8354 blood^H1818. ¹⁸Ye shall eat^H0398 the flesh^H1320 of the mighty^H1368, and drink^H8354 the blood^H1818 of the princes^H5387 of the earth^H0776, of rams^H0352, of lambs^H3733, and of goats^H6260, of bullocks^H6499, all of them fatlings^H4806 of Bashan^H1316. ¹⁹And ye shall eat^H0398 fat^H2459 till ye be full^H7654, and drink^H8354 blood^H1818 till ye be drunken^H7943, of my sacrifice^H2077 which I have sacrificed^H2076 for you. ²⁰Thus ye shall be filled^H7646 at my table^H7979 with horses^H5483 and chariots^H7393, with mighty men^H1368, and with all men^H0376 of war^H4421, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ²¹And I will set^H5414 my glory^H3519 among the heathen^H1471, and all the heathen^H1471 shall see^H7200 my judgment^H4941 that I have executed^H6213, and my hand^H3027 that I have laid^H7760 upon them. ²²So the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 shall know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068 their God^H0430 from that day^H3117 and forward^H1973.

²³And the heathen^H1471 shall know^H3045 that the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 went into captivity^H1540 for their iniquity^H5771: because they trespassed^H4603 against me, therefore hid^H5641 I my face^H6440 from them, and gave^H5414 them into the hand^H3027 of their enemies^H6862: so fell^H5307 they all by the sword^H2719. ²⁴According to their uncleanness^H2932 and according to their transgressions^H6588 have I done^H6213 unto them, and hid^H5641 my face^H6440 from them. ²⁵Therefore thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Now will I bring again^H7725 the captivity^H7622 of Jacob^H3290, and have mercy^H7355 upon the whole house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, and will be jealous^H7065 for my holy^H6944 name^H8034; ²⁶After that they have borne^H5375 their shame^H3639, and all their trespasses^H4604 whereby they have trespassed^H4603 against me, when they dwelt^H3427 safely^H0983 in their land^H0127, and none made them afraid^H2729. ²⁷When I have brought them again^H7725 from the people^H5971, and gathered^H6908 them out of their enemies^H0341 lands^H0776, and am sanctified^H6942 in them in the sight^H5869 of many^H7227 nations^H1471; ²⁸Then shall they know^H3045 that I am the LORD^H3068 their God^H0430, which caused them to be led into captivity^H1540 among the heathen^H1471: but I have gathered^H3664 them unto their own land^H0127, and have left^H3498 none of them any more there. ²⁹Neither will I hide^H5641 my face^H6440 any more from them: for I have poured out^H8210 my spirit^H7307 upon the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

Ezekiel: Chapter 40

¹In the five^H2568 and twentieth^H6242 year^H8141 of our captivity^H1546, in the beginning^H7218 of the year^H8141, in the tenth^H6218 day of the month^H2320, in the fourteenth^H0702 year^H8141 after^H0310 that the city^H5892 was smitten^H5221, in the selfsame^H6106 day^H3117 the hand^H3027 of the LORD^H3068 was upon me, and brought^H0935 me thither. ²In the visions^H4759 of God^H0430 brought^H0935 he me into the land^H0776 of Israel^H3478, and set^H5117 me upon a very^H3966 high^H1364 mountain^H2022, by which was as the frame^H4011 of a city^H5892 on the south^H5045. ³And he brought^H0935 me thither, and, behold, there was a man^H0376, whose appearance^H4758 was like the appearance^H4758 of brass^H5178, with a line^H6616 of flax^H6593 in his hand^H3027, and a measuring^H4060 reed^H7070; and he stood^H5975 in the gate^H8179. ⁴And the man^H0376 said^H1696 unto me, Son^H1121 of man^H0120, behold^H7200 with thine eyes^H5869, and hear^H8085 with thine ears^H0241, and set^H7760 thine heart^H3820 upon all that I shall shew^H7200 thee; for to the intent^H4616 that I might shew^H7200 them unto thee art thou brought^H0935 hither: declare^H5046 all that thou seest^H7200 to the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478.

⁵And behold a wall^H2346 on the outside^H2351 of the house^H1004 round about^H5439, and in the mans^H0376 hand^H3027 a measuring^H4060 reed^H7070 of six^H8337 cubits^H0520 long by the cubit^H0520 and an hand breadth^H2948: so he measured^H4058 the breadth^H7341 of the building^H1146, one^H0259 reed^H7070; and the height^H6967, one^H0259 reed^H7070.

⁶Then came^H0935 he unto the gate^H8179 which looketh^H6440 toward^H1870 the east^H6921, and went up^H5927 the stairs^H4609 thereof, and measured^H4058 the threshold^H5592 of the gate^H8179, which was one^H0259 reed^H7070 broad^H7341; and the other^H0259 threshold^H5592 of the gate, which was one^H0259 reed^H7070 broad^H7341. ⁷And every little chamber^H8372 was one^H0259 reed^H7070 long^H0753, and one^H0259 reed^H7070 broad^H7341; and between the little chambers^H8372 were five^H2568 cubits^H0520; and the threshold^H5592 of the gate^H8179 by^H0681 the porch^H0197 of the gate^H8179 within^H1004 was one^H0259 reed^H7070. ⁸He measured^H4058 also the porch^H0197 of the gate^H8179 within^H1004, one^H0259 reed^H7070. ⁹Then measured^H4058 he the porch^H0197 of the gate^H8179, eight^H8083 cubits^H0520; and the posts^H0352 thereof, two^H8147 cubits^H0520; and the porch^H0197 of the gate^H8179 was inward^H1004. ¹⁰And the little chambers^H8372 of the gate^H8179 eastward^H1870 were three^H7969 on this side^H6311, and three^H7969 on that side^H6311; they three^H7969 were of one^H0259 measure^H4060: and the posts^H0352 had one^H0259 measure^H4060 on this side and on that side. ¹¹And he measured^H4058 the breadth^H7341 of the entry^H6607 of the gate^H8179, ten^H6235 cubits^H0520; and the length^H0753 of the gate^H8179, thirteen^H7969 cubits^H0520. ¹²The space^H1366 also before^H6440 the little chambers^H8372 was one^H0259 cubit^H0520 on this side , and the space^H1366 was one cubit^H0520 on that side: and the little chambers^H8372 were six^H8337 cubits^H0520 on this side, and six^H8337 cubits^H0520 on that side. ¹³He measured^H4058 then the gate^H8179 from the roof^H1406 of one little chamber^H8372 to the roof^H1406 of another: the breadth^H7341 was five^H2568 and twenty^H6242 cubits^H0520, door^H6607 against door^H6607. ¹⁴He made^H6213 also posts^H0352 of threescore^H8346 cubits^H0520, even unto the post^H0352 of the court^H2691 round about^H5439 the gate^H8179. ¹⁵And from the face^H6440 of the gate^H8179 of the entrance^H2978 unto the face^H6440 of the porch^H0197 of the inner^H6442 gate^H8179 were fifty^H2572 cubits^H0520. ¹⁶And there were narrow^H0331 windows^H2474 to the little chambers^H8372, and to their posts^H0352 within^H6441 the gate^H8179 round about^H5439, and likewise to the arches^H0361: and windows^H2474 were round about^H5439 inward^H6441: and upon each post^H0352 were palm trees^H8561. ¹⁷Then brought^H0935 he me into the outward^H2435 court^H2691, and, lo, there were chambers^H3957, and a pavement^H7531 made^H6213 for the court^H2691 round about^H5439: thirty^H7970 chambers^H3957 were upon the pavement^H7531. ¹⁸And the pavement^H7531 by the side^H3802 of the gates^H8179 over against^H5980 the length^H0753 of the gates^H8179 was the lower^H8481 pavement^H7531. ¹⁹Then he measured^H4058 the breadth^H7341 from the forefront^H6440 of the lower^H8481 gate^H8179 unto the forefront^H6440 of the inner^H6442 court^H2691 without^H2351, an hundred^H3967 cubits^H0520 eastward^H6921 and northward^H6828.

²⁰And the gate^H8179 of the outward^H2435 court^H2691 that looked^H6440 toward^H1870 the north^H6828, he measured^H4058 the length^H0753 thereof, and the breadth^H7341 thereof. ²¹And the little chambers^H8372 thereof were three^H7969 on this side and three^H7969 on that side; and the posts^H0352 thereof and the arches^H0361 thereof were after the measure^H4060 of the first^H7223 gate^H8179: the length^H0753 thereof was fifty^H2572 cubits^H0520, and the breadth^H7341 five^H2568 and twenty^H6242 cubits^H0520. ²²And their windows^H2474, and their arches^H0361, and their palm trees^H8561, were after the measure^H4060 of the gate^H8179 that looketh^H6440 toward^H1870 the east^H6921; and they went up^H5927 unto it by seven^H7651 steps^H4609; and the arches^H0361 thereof were before^H6440 them. ²³And the gate^H8179 of the inner^H6442 court^H2691 was over against the gate^H8179 toward the north^H6828, and toward the east^H6921; and he measured^H4058 from gate^H8179 to gate^H8179 an hundred^H3967 cubits^H0520.

²⁴After that he brought^H3212 me toward^H1870 the south^H1864, and behold a gate^H8179 toward^H1870 the south^H1864: and he measured^H4058 the posts^H0352 thereof and the arches^H0361 thereof according to these measures^H4060. ²⁵And there were windows^H2474 in it and in the arches^H0361 thereof round about^H5439, like those windows^H2474: the length^H0753 was fifty^H2572 cubits^H0520, and the breadth^H7341 five^H2568 and twenty^H6242 cubits^H0520. ²⁶And there were seven^H7651 steps^H4609 to go up^H5930 to it, and the arches^H0361 thereof were before^H6440 them: and it had palm trees^H8561, one^H0259 on this side, and another^H0259 on that side, upon the posts^H0352 thereof.

²⁷And there was a gate^H8179 in the inner^H6442 court^H2691 toward^H1870 the south^H1864: and he measured^H4058 from gate^H8179 to gate^H8179 toward^H1870 the south^H1864 an hundred^H3967 cubits^H0520. ²⁸And he brought^H0935 me to the inner^H6442 court^H2691 by the south^H1864 gate^H8179: and he measured^H4058 the south^H1864 gate^H8179 according to these measures^H4060; ²⁹And the little chambers^H8372 thereof, and the posts^H0352 thereof, and the arches^H0361 thereof, according to these measures^H4060: and there were windows^H2474 in it and in the arches^H0361 thereof round about^H5439: it was fifty^H2572 cubits^H0520 long^H0753, and five^H2568 and twenty^H6242 cubits^H0520 broad^H7341. ³⁰And the arches^H0361 round about^H5439 were five^H2568 and twenty^H6242 cubits^H0520 long^H0753, and five^H2568 cubits^H0520 broad^H7341. ³¹And the arches^H0361 thereof were toward the utter^H2435 court^H2691; and palm trees^H8561 were upon the posts^H0352 thereof: and the going up^H4608 to it had eight^H8083 steps^H4609.

³²And he brought^H0935 me into the inner^H6442 court^H2691 toward^H1870 the east^H6921: and he measured^H4058 the gate^H8179 according to these measures^H4060. ³³And the little chambers^H8372 thereof, and the posts^H0352 thereof, and the arches^H0361 thereof, were according to these measures^H4060: and there were windows^H2474 therein and in the arches^H0361 thereof round about^H5439: it was fifty^H2572 cubits^H0520 long^H0753, and five^H2568 and twenty^H6242 cubits^H0520 broad^H7341. ³⁴And the arches^H0361 thereof were toward the outward^H2435 court^H2691; and palm trees^H8561 were upon the posts^H0352 thereof, on this side, and on that side: and the going up^H4608 to it had eight^H8083 steps^H4609.

³⁵And he brought^H0935 me to the north^H6828 gate^H8179, and measured^H4058 it according to these measures^H4060; ³⁶The little chambers^H8372 thereof, the posts^H0352 thereof, and the arches^H0361 thereof, and the windows^H2474 to it round about^H5439: the length^H0753 was fifty^H2572 cubits^H0520, and the breadth^H7341 five^H2568 and twenty^H6242 cubits^H0520. ³⁷And the posts^H0352 thereof were toward the utter^H2435 court^H2691; and palm trees^H8561 were upon the posts^H0352 thereof, on this side, and on that side: and the going up^H4608 to it had eight^H8083 steps^H4609. ³⁸And the chambers^H3957 and the entries^H6607 thereof were by the posts^H0352 of the gates^H8179, where they washed^H1740 the burnt offering^H5930.

³⁹And in the porch^H0197 of the gate^H8179 were two^H8147 tables^H7979 on this side, and two tables^H7979 on that side, to slay^H7819 thereon the burnt offering^H5930 and the sin offering^H2403 and the trespass offering^H0817. ⁴⁰And at the side^H3802 without^H2351, as one goeth up^H5927 to the entry^H6607 of the north^H6828 gate^H8179, were two^H8147 tables^H7979; and on the other^H0312 side^H3802, which was at the porch^H0197 of the gate^H8179, were two^H8147 tables^H7979. ⁴¹Four^H0702 tables^H7979 were on this side, and four^H0702 tables^H7979 on that side, by the side^H3802 of the gate^H8179; eight^H8083 tables^H7979, whereupon they slew^H7819 their sacrifices . ⁴²And the four^H0702 tables^H7979 were of hewn^H1496 stone^H0068 for the burnt offering^H5930, of a cubit^H0520 and an half^H2677 long^H0753, and a cubit^H0520 and an half^H2677 broad^H7341, and one^H0259 cubit^H0520 high^H1363: whereupon also they laid^H3240 the instruments^H3627 wherewith they slew^H7819 the burnt offering^H5930 and the sacrifice^H2077. ⁴³And within^H1004 were hooks^H8240, an^H0259 hand^H2948 broad, fastened^H3559 round about^H5439: and upon the tables^H7979 was the flesh^H1320 of the offering^H7133.

⁴⁴And without^H2351 the inner^H6442 gate^H8179 were the chambers^H3957 of the singers^H7891 in the inner^H6442 court^H2691, which was at the side^H3802 of the north^H6828 gate^H8179; and their prospect^H6440 was toward^H1870 the south^H1864: one^H0259 at the side^H3802 of the east^H6921 gate^H8179 having the prospect^H6440 toward^H1870 the north^H6828. ⁴⁵And he said^H1696 unto me, This^H2090 chamber^H3957, whose prospect^H6440 is toward^H1870 the south^H1864, is for the priests^H3548, the keepers^H8104 of the charge^H4931 of the house^H1004. ⁴⁶And the chamber^H3957 whose prospect^H6440 is toward^H1870 the north^H6828 is for the priests^H3548, the keepers^H8104 of the charge^H4931 of the altar^H4196: these are the sons^H1121 of Zadok^H6659 among the sons^H1121 of Levi^H3878, which come near^H7131 to the LORD^H3068 to minister^H8334 unto him. ⁴⁷So he measured^H4058 the court^H2691, an hundred^H3967 cubits^H0520 long^H0753, and an hundred^H3967 cubits^H0520 broad^H7341, foursquare^H7251; and the altar^H4196 that was before^H6440 the house^H1004.

⁴⁸And he brought^H0935 me to the porch^H0197 of the house^H1004, and measured^H4058 each post^H0352 of the porch^H0197, five^H2568 cubits^H0520 on this side, and five^H2568 cubits^H0520 on that side: and the breadth^H7341 of the gate^H8179 was three^H7969 cubits^H0520 on this side, and three^H7969 cubits^H0520 on that side. ⁴⁹The length^H0753 of the porch^H0197 was twenty^H6242 cubits^H0520, and the breadth^H7341 eleven^H6249 cubits^H0520; and he brought me by the steps^H4609 whereby they went up^H5927 to it: and there were pillars^H5982 by the posts^H0352, one^H0259 on this side, and another^H0259 on that side.

Ezekiel: Chapter 41

¹Afterward he brought^H0935 me to the temple^H1964, and measured^H4058 the posts^H0352, six^H8337 cubits^H0520 broad^H7341 on the one side^H6311, and six^H8337 cubits^H0520 broad^H7341 on the other side^H6311, which was the breadth^H7341 of the tabernacle^H0168. ²And the breadth^H7341 of the door^H6607 was ten^H6235 cubits^H0520; and the sides^H3802 of the door^H6607 were five^H2568 cubits^H0520 on the one side, and five^H2568 cubits^H0520 on the other side: and he measured^H4058 the length^H0753 thereof, forty^H0705 cubits^H0520: and the breadth^H7341, twenty^H6242 cubits^H0520. ³Then went^H0935 he inward^H6441, and measured^H4058 the post^H0352 of the door^H6607, two^H8147 cubits^H0520; and the door^H6607, six^H8337 cubits^H0520; and the breadth^H7341 of the door^H6607, seven^H7651 cubits^H0520. ⁴So he measured^H4058 the length^H0753 thereof, twenty^H6242 cubits^H0520; and the breadth^H7341, twenty^H6242 cubits^H0520, before^H6440 the temple^H1964: and he said^H0559 unto me, This is the most^H6944 holy^H6944 place . ⁵After he measured^H4058 the wall^H7023 of the house^H1004, six^H8337 cubits^H0520; and the breadth^H7341 of every side chamber^H6763, four^H0702 cubits^H0520, round about^H5439 the house^H1004 on every side^H5439. ⁶And the side^H6763 chambers^H6763 were three^H7969, one over another^H6763, and thirty^H7970 in order^H6471; and they entered^H0935 into the wall^H7023 which was of the house^H1004 for the side chambers^H6763 round about^H5439, that they might have hold^H0270, but they had not hold^H0270 in the wall^H7023 of the house^H1004. ⁷And there was an enlarging^H7337, and a winding about^H5437 still upward^H4605 to the side chambers^H6763: for the winding about^H4141 of the house^H1004 went still upward^H4605 round about^H5439 the house^H1004: therefore the breadth^H7341 of the house^H1004 was still upward^H4605, and so increased^H5927 from the lowest^H8481 chamber to the highest^H5945 by the midst^H8484. ⁸I saw^H7200 also the height^H1363 of the house^H1004 round about^H5439: the foundations^H4328 of the side chambers^H6763 were a full^H4393 reed^H7070 of six^H8337 great^H0679 cubits^H0520. ⁹The thickness^H7341 of the wall^H7023, which was for the side chamber^H6763 without^H2351, was five^H2568 cubits^H0520: and that which was left^H3240 was the place^H1004 of the side chambers^H6763 that were within^H1004. ¹⁰And between the chambers^H3957 was the wideness^H7341 of twenty^H6242 cubits^H0520 round about^H5439 the house^H1004 on every side^H5439. ¹¹And the doors^H6607 of the side chambers^H6763 were toward the place that was left^H3240, one^H0259 door^H6607 toward^H1870 the north^H6828, and another^H0259 door^H6607 toward the south^H1864: and the breadth^H7341 of the place^H4725 that was left^H3240 was five^H2568 cubits^H0520 round about^H5439.

¹²Now the building^H1146 that was before^H6440 the separate place^H1508 at the end^H6285 toward^H1870 the west^H3220 was seventy^H7657 cubits^H0520 broad^H7341; and the wall^H7023 of the building^H1146 was five^H2568 cubits^H0520 thick^H7341 round about^H5439, and the length^H0753 thereof ninety^H8673 cubits^H0520. ¹³So he measured^H4058 the house^H1004, an hundred^H3967 cubits^H0520 long^H0753; and the separate place^H1508, and the building^H1140, with the walls^H7023 thereof, an hundred^H3967 cubits^H0520 long^H0753; ¹⁴Also the breadth^H7341 of the face^H6440 of the house^H1004, and of the separate place^H1508 toward the east^H6921, an hundred^H3967 cubits^H0520. ¹⁵And he measured^H4058 the length^H0753 of the building^H1146 over against^H6440 the separate place^H1508 which was behind^H0310 it, and the galleries^H0862 thereof on the one side and on the other side, an hundred^H3967 cubits^H0520, with the inner^H6442 temple^H1964, and the porches^H0197 of the court^H2691; ¹⁶The door posts^H5592, and the narrow^H0331 windows^H2474, and the galleries^H0862 round about^H5439 on their three stories^H7969, over against^H5048 the door^H5592, cieled^H7824 with wood^H6086 round about^H5439, and from the ground^H0776 up to the windows^H2474, and the windows^H2474 were covered^H3680; ¹⁷To that above the door^H6607, even unto the inner^H6442 house^H1004, and without^H2351, and by all the wall^H7023 round about^H5439 within^H6442 and without^H2435, by measure^H4060. ¹⁸And it was made^H6213 with cherubims^H3742 and palm trees^H8561, so that a palm tree^H8561 was between a cherub^H3742 and a cherub^H3742; and every cherub^H3742 had two^H8147 faces^H6440; ¹⁹So that the face^H6440 of a man^H0120 was toward the palm tree^H8561 on the one side, and the face^H6440 of a young lion^H3715 toward the palm tree^H8561 on the other side: it was made^H6213 through all the house^H1004 round about^H5439. ²⁰From the ground^H0776 unto above the door^H6607 were cherubims^H3742 and palm trees^H8561 made^H6213, and on the wall^H7023 of the temple^H1964. ²¹The posts^H4201 of the temple^H1964 were squared^H7251, and the face^H6440 of the sanctuary^H6944; the appearance^H4758 of the one as the appearance^H4758 of the other . ²²The altar^H4196 of wood^H6086 was three^H7969 cubits^H0520 high^H1364, and the length^H0753 thereof two^H8147 cubits^H0520; and the corners^H4740 thereof, and the length^H0753 thereof, and the walls^H7023 thereof, were of wood^H6086: and he said^H1696 unto me, This is the table^H7979 that is before^H6440 the LORD^H3068. ²³And the temple^H1964 and the sanctuary^H6944 had two^H8147 doors^H1817. ²⁴And the doors^H1817 had two^H8147 leaves^H1817 apiece , two^H8147 turning^H4142 leaves^H1817; two^H8147 leaves for the one^H0259 door^H1817, and two^H8147 leaves^H1817 for the other^H0312 door . ²⁵And there were made^H6213 on them, on the doors^H1817 of the temple^H1964, cherubims^H3742 and palm trees^H8561, like as were made^H6213 upon the walls^H7023; and there were thick^H5646 planks^H6086 upon the face^H6440 of the porch^H0197 without^H2351. ²⁶And there were narrow^H0331 windows^H2474 and palm trees^H8561 on the one side and on the other side, on the sides^H3802 of the porch^H0197, and upon the side chambers^H6763 of the house^H1004, and thick planks^H5646.

Ezekiel: Chapter 42

¹Then he brought me forth^H3318 into the utter^H2435 court^H2691, the way toward^H1870 the north^H6828: and he brought^H0935 me into the chamber^H3957 that was over against the separate place^H1508, and which was before the building^H1146 toward the north^H6828. ²Before^H6440 the length^H0753 of an hundred^H3967 cubits^H0520 was the north^H6828 door^H6607, and the breadth^H7341 was fifty^H2572 cubits^H0520. ³Over against the twenty^H6242 cubits which were for the inner^H6442 court^H2691, and over against the pavement^H7531 which was for the utter^H2435 court^H2691, was gallery^H0862 against^H6440 gallery^H0862 in three^H7992 stories . ⁴And before^H6440 the chambers^H3957 was a walk^H4109 of ten^H6235 cubits^H0520 breadth^H7341 inward^H6442, a way^H1870 of one^H0259 cubit^H0520; and their doors^H6607 toward the north^H6828. ⁵Now the upper^H5945 chambers^H3957 were shorter^H7114: for the galleries^H0862 were higher^H0398 than these^H2007, than the lower^H8481, and than the middlemost^H8484 of the building^H1146. ⁶For they were in three^H8027 stories , but had not pillars^H5982 as the pillars^H5982 of the courts^H2691: therefore the building was straitened^H0680 more than the lowest^H8481 and the middlemost^H8484 from the ground^H0776. ⁷And the wall^H1447 that was without^H2351 over against^H5980 the chambers^H3957, toward^H1870 the utter^H2435 court^H2691 on the forepart^H6440 of the chambers^H3957, the length^H0753 thereof was fifty^H2572 cubits^H0520. ⁸For the length^H0753 of the chambers^H3957 that were in the utter^H2435 court^H2691 was fifty^H2572 cubits^H0520: and, lo, before^H6440 the temple^H1964 were an hundred^H3967 cubits^H0520. ⁹And from under these chambers^H3957 was the entry^H3996 on the east side^H6921, as one goeth^H0935 into them^H2007 from the utter^H2435 court^H2691. ¹⁰The chambers^H3957 were in the thickness^H7341 of the wall^H1444 of the court^H2691 toward^H1870 the east^H6921, over against^H6440 the separate place^H1508, and over against^H6440 the building^H1146. ¹¹And the way^H1870 before^H6440 them was like the appearance^H4758 of the chambers^H3957 which were toward^H1870 the north^H6828, as long as^H0753 they, and as broad as^H3651 they: and all their goings out^H4161 were both according to their fashions^H4941, and according to their doors^H6607. ¹²And according to the doors^H6607 of the chambers^H3957 that were toward^H1870 the south^H1864 was a door^H6607 in the head^H7218 of the way^H1870, even the way^H1870 directly^H1903 before^H6440 the wall^H1448 toward^H1870 the east^H6921, as one entereth^H0935 into them.

¹³Then said^H0559 he unto me, The north^H6828 chambers^H3957 and the south^H1864 chambers^H3957, which are before^H6440 the separate place^H1508, they be holy^H6944 chambers^H3957, where the priests^H3548 that approach^H7138 unto the LORD^H3068 shall eat^H0398 the most^H6944 holy things^H6944: there shall they lay^H3240 the most^H6944 holy things^H6944, and the meat offering^H4503, and the sin offering^H2403, and the trespass offering^H0817; for the place^H4725 is holy^H6918. ¹⁴When the priests^H3548 enter^H0935 therein, then shall they not go out^H3318 of the holy^H6944 place into the utter^H2435 court^H2691, but there they shall lay^H3240 their garments^H0899 wherein they minister^H8334; for they are holy^H6944; and shall put^H3847 on other^H0312 garments^H0899, and shall approach^H7126 to those things which are for the people^H5971.

¹⁵Now when he had made an end^H3615 of measuring^H4060 the inner^H6442 house^H1004, he brought me forth^H3318 toward^H1870 the gate^H8179 whose prospect^H6440 is toward^H1870 the east^H6921, and measured^H4058 it round about^H5439. ¹⁶He measured^H4058 the east^H6921 side^H7307 with the measuring^H4060 reed^H7070, five^H2568 hundred^H3967 reeds^H7070, with the measuring^H4060 reed^H7070 round about^H5439. ¹⁷He measured^H4058 the north^H6828 side^H7307, five^H2568 hundred^H3967 reeds^H7070, with the measuring^H4060 reed^H7070 round about^H5439. ¹⁸He measured^H4058 the south^H1864 side^H7307, five^H2568 hundred^H3967 reeds^H7070, with the measuring^H4060 reed^H7070.

¹⁹He turned about^H5437 to the west^H3220 side^H7307, and measured^H4058 five^H2568 hundred^H3967 reeds^H7070 with the measuring^H4060 reed^H7070. ²⁰He measured^H4058 it by the four^H0702 sides^H7307: it had a wall^H2346 round about^H5439, five^H2568 hundred^H3967 reeds long^H0753, and five^H2568 hundred^H3967 broad^H7341, to make a separation^H0914 between the sanctuary^H6944 and the profane place^H2455.

Ezekiel: Chapter 43

¹Afterward he brought^H3212 me to the gate^H8179, even the gate^H8179 that looketh^H6437 toward^H1870 the east^H6921: ²And, behold, the glory^H3519 of the God^H0430 of Israel^H3478 came^H0935 from the way^H1870 of the east^H6921: and his voice^H6963 was like a noise^H6963 of many^H7227 waters^H4325: and the earth^H0776 shined^H0215 with his glory^H3519. ³And it was according to the appearance^H4758 of the vision^H4758 which I saw^H7200, even according to the vision^H4758 that I saw^H7200 when I came^H0935 to destroy^H7843 the city^H5892: and the visions^H4759 were like the vision^H4758 that I saw^H7200 by the river^H5104 Chebar^H3529; and I fell^H5307 upon my face^H6440. ⁴And the glory^H3519 of the LORD^H3068 came^H0935 into the house^H1004 by the way^H1870 of the gate^H8179 whose prospect^H6440 is toward^H1870 the east^H6921. ⁵So the spirit^H7307 took me up^H5375, and brought^H0935 me into the inner^H6442 court^H2691; and, behold, the glory^H3519 of the LORD^H3068 filled^H4390 the house^H1004. ⁶And I heard^H8085 him speaking^H1696 unto me out of the house^H1004; and the man^H0376 stood^H5975 by me^H0681.

⁷And he said^H0559 unto me, Son^H1121 of man^H0120, the place^H4725 of my throne^H3678, and the place^H4725 of the soles^H3709 of my feet^H7272, where I will dwell^H7931 in the midst^H8432 of the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478 for ever^H5769, and my holy^H6944 name^H8034, shall the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 no more defile^H2930, neither they, nor their kings^H4428, by their whoredom^H2184, nor by the carcases^H6297 of their kings^H4428 in their high places^H1116. ⁸In their setting^H5414 of their threshold^H5592 by my thresholds^H5592, and their post^H4201 by^H0681 my posts^H4201, and the wall^H7023 between me and them, they have even defiled^H2930 my holy^H6944 name^H8034 by their abominations^H8441 that they have committed^H6213: wherefore I have consumed^H3615 them in mine anger^H0639. ⁹Now let them put away^H7368 their whoredom^H2184, and the carcases^H6297 of their kings^H4428, far^H7368 from me, and I will dwell^H7931 in the midst^H8432 of them for ever^H5769.

¹⁰Thou son^H1121 of man^H0120, shew^H5046 the house^H1004 to the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, that they may be ashamed^H3637 of their iniquities^H5771: and let them measure^H4058 the pattern^H8508. ¹¹And if they be ashamed^H3637 of all that they have done^H6213, shew^H3045 them the form^H6699 of the house^H1004, and the fashion^H8498 thereof, and the goings out^H4161 thereof, and the comings^H4126 in thereof, and all the forms^H6699 thereof, and all the ordinances^H2708 thereof, and all the forms^H6699 thereof, and all the laws^H8451 thereof: and write^H3789 it in their sight^H5869, that they may keep^H8104 the whole form^H6699 thereof, and all the ordinances^H2708 thereof, and do^H6213 them. ¹²This is the law^H8451 of the house^H1004; Upon the top^H7218 of the mountain^H2022 the whole limit^H1366 thereof round about^H5439 shall be most^H6944 holy^H6944. Behold, this is the law^H8451 of the house^H1004.

¹³And these are the measures^H4060 of the altar^H4196 after the cubits^H0520: The cubit^H0520 is a cubit^H0520 and an hand breadth^H2948; even the bottom^H2436 shall be a cubit^H0520, and the breadth^H7341 a cubit^H0520, and the border^H1366 thereof by the edge^H8193 thereof round about^H5439 shall be a^H0259 span^H2239: and this shall be the higher place^H1354 of the altar^H4196. ¹⁴And from the bottom^H2436 upon the ground^H0776 even to the lower^H8481 settle^H5835 shall be two^H8147 cubits^H0520, and the breadth^H7341 one^H0259 cubit^H0520; and from the lesser^H6996 settle^H5835 even to the greater^H1419 settle^H5835 shall be four^H0702 cubits^H0520, and the breadth^H7341 one cubit^H0520. ¹⁵So the altar^H0741 shall be four^H0702 cubits^H0520; and from the altar^H0741 and upward^H4605 shall be four^H0702 horns^H7161. ¹⁶And the altar^H0741 shall be twelve^H8147 cubits long^H0753, twelve^H8147 broad^H7341, square^H7251 in the four^H0702 squares^H7253 thereof. ¹⁷And the settle^H5835 shall be fourteen^H0702 cubits long^H0753 and fourteen^H0702 broad^H7341 in the four^H0702 squares^H7253 thereof; and the border^H1366 about^H5439 it shall be half^H2677 a cubit^H0520; and the bottom^H2436 thereof shall be a cubit^H0520 about^H5439; and his stairs^H4609 shall look^H6437 toward the east^H6921.

¹⁸And he said^H0559 unto me, Son^H1121 of man^H0120, thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; These are the ordinances^H2708 of the altar^H4196 in the day^H3117 when they shall make^H6213 it, to offer^H5927 burnt offerings^H5930 thereon, and to sprinkle^H2236 blood^H1818 thereon. ¹⁹And thou shalt give^H5414 to the priests^H3548 the Levites^H3881 that be of the seed^H2233 of Zadok^H6659, which approach^H7138 unto me, to minister^H8334 unto me, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, a young^H1121 bullock^H6499 for a sin offering^H2403. ²⁰And thou shalt take^H3947 of the blood^H1818 thereof, and put^H5414 it on the four^H0702 horns^H7161 of it, and on the four^H0702 corners^H6438 of the settle^H5835, and upon the border^H1366 round about^H5439: thus shalt thou cleanse^H2398 and purge^H3722 it. ²¹Thou shalt take^H3947 the bullock^H6499 also of the sin offering^H2403, and he shall burn^H8313 it in the appointed place^H4662 of the house^H1004, without^H2351 the sanctuary^H4720. ²²And on the second^H8145 day^H3117 thou shalt offer^H7126 a kid^H8163 of the goats^H5795 without blemish^H8549 for a sin offering^H2403; and they shall cleanse^H2398 the altar^H4196, as they did cleanse^H2398 it with the bullock^H6499. ²³When thou hast made an end^H3615 of cleansing^H2398 it , thou shalt offer^H7126 a young^H1121 bullock^H6499 without blemish^H8549, and a ram^H0352 out of the flock^H6629 without blemish^H8549. ²⁴And thou shalt offer^H7126 them before^H6440 the LORD^H3068, and the priests^H3548 shall cast^H7993 salt^H4417 upon them, and they shall offer them up^H5927 for a burnt offering^H5930 unto the LORD^H3068. ²⁵Seven^H7651 days^H3117 shalt thou prepare^H6213 every day^H3117 a goat^H8163 for a sin offering^H2403: they shall also prepare^H6213 a young^H1121 bullock^H6499, and a ram^H0352 out of the flock^H6629, without blemish^H8549. ²⁶Seven^H7651 days^H3117 shall they purge^H3722 the altar^H4196 and purify^H2891 it; and they shall consecrate themselves^H4390. ²⁷And when these days^H3117 are expired^H3615, it shall be, that upon the eighth^H8066 day^H3117, and so forward^H1973, the priests^H3548 shall make^H6213 your burnt offerings^H5930 upon the altar^H4196, and your peace offerings^H8002; and I will accept^H7521 you, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.

Ezekiel: Chapter 44

¹Then he brought me back^H7725 the way^H1870 of the gate^H8179 of the outward^H2435 sanctuary^H4720 which looketh^H6437 toward the east^H6921; and it was shut^H5462. ²Then said^H0559 the LORD^H3068 unto me; This gate^H8179 shall be shut^H5462, it shall not be opened^H6605, and no man^H0376 shall enter^H0935 in by it; because the LORD^H3068, the God^H0430 of Israel^H3478, hath entered^H0935 in by it, therefore it shall be shut^H5462. ³ It is for the prince^H5387; the prince^H5387, he shall sit^H3427 in it to eat^H0398 bread^H3899 before^H6440 the LORD^H3068; he shall enter^H0935 by the way^H1870 of the porch^H0197 of that gate^H8179, and shall go out^H3318 by the way^H1870 of the same.

⁴Then brought^H0935 he me the way^H1870 of the north^H6828 gate^H8179 before^H6440 the house^H1004: and I looked^H7200, and, behold, the glory^H3519 of the LORD^H3068 filled^H4390 the house^H1004 of the LORD^H3068: and I fell^H5307 upon my face^H6440. ⁵And the LORD^H3068 said^H0559 unto me, Son^H1121 of man^H0120, mark^H7760 well^H3820, and behold^H7200 with thine eyes^H5869, and hear^H8085 with thine ears^H0241 all that I say^H1696 unto thee concerning all the ordinances^H2708 of the house^H1004 of the LORD^H3068, and all the laws^H8451 thereof; and mark^H7760 well^H3820 the entering in^H3996 of the house^H1004, with every going forth^H4161 of the sanctuary^H4720. ⁶And thou shalt say^H0559 to the rebellious^H4805, even to the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; O ye house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, let it suffice^H7227 you of all your abominations^H8441, ⁷In that ye have brought^H0935 into my sanctuary strangers^H1121, uncircumcised^H6189 in heart^H3820, and uncircumcised^H6189 in flesh^H1320, to be in my sanctuary^H4720, to pollute^H2490 it, even my house^H1004, when ye offer^H7126 my bread^H3899, the fat^H2459 and the blood^H1818, and they have broken^H6565 my covenant^H1285 because^H0413 of all your abominations^H8441. ⁸And ye have not kept^H8104 the charge^H4931 of mine holy things^H6944: but ye have set^H7760 keepers^H8104 of my charge^H4931 in my sanctuary^H4720 for yourselves.

⁹Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; No stranger^H1121, uncircumcised^H6189 in heart^H3820, nor uncircumcised^H6189 in flesh^H1320, shall enter^H0935 into my sanctuary^H4720, of any stranger that is among^H8432 the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478.

¹⁰And the Levites^H3881 that are gone away far^H7368 from me, when Israel^H3478 went astray^H8582, which went astray away^H8582 from me after^H0310 their idols^H1544; they shall even bear^H5375 their iniquity^H5771. ¹¹Yet they shall be ministers^H8334 in my sanctuary^H4720, having charge^H6486 at the gates^H8179 of the house^H1004, and ministering^H8334 to the house^H1004: they shall slay^H7819 the burnt offering^H5930 and the sacrifice^H2077 for the people^H5971, and they shall stand^H5975 before^H6440 them to minister^H8334 unto them. ¹²Because they ministered^H8334 unto them before^H6440 their idols^H1544, and caused the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 to fall^H4383 into iniquity^H5771; therefore have I lifted up^H5375 mine hand^H3027 against them, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069, and they shall bear^H5375 their iniquity^H5771. ¹³And they shall not come near^H5066 unto me, to do the office of a priest^H3547 unto me, nor to come near^H5066 to any of my holy things^H6944, in the most holy^H6944 place: but they shall bear^H5375 their shame^H3639, and their abominations^H8441 which they have committed^H6213. ¹⁴But I will make^H5414 them keepers^H8104 of the charge^H4931 of the house^H1004, for all the service^H5656 thereof, and for all that shall be done^H6213 therein.

¹⁵But the priests^H3548 the Levites^H3881, the sons^H1121 of Zadok^H6659, that kept^H8104 the charge^H4931 of my sanctuary^H4720 when the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478 went astray^H8582 from me, they shall come near^H7126 to me to minister^H8334 unto me, and they shall stand^H5975 before^H6440 me to offer^H7126 unto me the fat^H2459 and the blood^H1818, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069: ¹⁶They shall enter^H0935 into my sanctuary^H4720, and they shall come near^H7126 to my table^H7979, to minister^H8334 unto me, and they shall keep^H8104 my charge^H4931.

¹⁷And it shall come to pass, that when they enter^H0935 in at the gates^H8179 of the inner^H6442 court^H2691, they shall be clothed^H3847 with linen^H6593 garments^H0899; and no wool^H6785 shall come^H5927 upon them, whiles they minister^H8334 in the gates^H8179 of the inner^H6442 court^H2691, and within^H1004. ¹⁸They shall have linen^H6593 bonnets^H6287 upon their heads^H7218, and shall have linen^H6593 breeches^H4370 upon their loins^H4975; they shall not gird^H2296 themselves with any thing that causeth sweat^H3154. ¹⁹And when they go forth^H3318 into the utter^H2435 court^H2691, even into the utter^H2435 court^H2691 to the people^H5971, they shall put off^H6584 their garments^H0899 wherein they ministered^H8334, and lay^H3240 them in the holy^H6944 chambers^H3957, and they shall put^H3847 on other^H0312 garments^H0899; and they shall not sanctify^H6942 the people^H5971 with their garments^H0899. ²⁰Neither shall they shave^H1548 their heads^H7218, nor suffer their locks^H6545 to grow long^H7971; they shall only^H3697 poll^H3697 their heads^H7218. ²¹Neither shall any priest^H3548 drink^H8354 wine^H3196, when they enter^H0935 into the inner^H6442 court^H2691. ²²Neither shall they take^H3947 for their wives^H0802 a widow^H0490, nor her that is put away^H1644: but they shall take^H3947 maidens^H1330 of the seed^H2233 of the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478, or a widow^H0490 that had a priest^H3548 before. ²³And they shall teach^H3384 my people^H5971 the difference between the holy^H6944 and profane^H2455, and cause them to discern^H3045 between the unclean^H2931 and the clean^H2889. ²⁴And in controversy^H7379 they shall stand^H5975 in judgment^H8199; and they shall judge^H8199 it according to my judgments^H4941: and they shall keep^H8104 my laws^H8451 and my statutes^H2708 in all mine assemblies^H4150; and they shall hallow^H6942 my sabbaths^H7676. ²⁵And they shall come^H0935 at no dead^H4191 person^H0120 to defile^H2930 themselves: but for father^H0001, or for mother^H0517, or for son^H1121, or for daughter^H1323, for brother^H0251, or for sister^H0269 that hath had no husband^H0376, they may defile^H2930 themselves. ²⁶And after^H0310 he is cleansed^H2893, they shall reckon^H5608 unto him seven^H7651 days^H3117. ²⁷And in the day^H3117 that he goeth^H0935 into the sanctuary^H6944, unto the inner^H6442 court^H2691, to minister^H8334 in the sanctuary^H6944, he shall offer^H7126 his sin offering^H2403, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ²⁸And it shall be unto them for an inheritance^H5159: I am their inheritance^H5159: and ye shall give^H5414 them no possession^H0272 in Israel^H3478: I am their possession^H0272. ²⁹They shall eat^H0398 the meat offering^H4503, and the sin offering^H2403, and the trespass offering^H0817; and every dedicated thing^H2764 in Israel^H3478 shall be theirs. ³⁰And the first^H7225 of all the firstfruits^H1061 of all things , and every oblation^H8641 of all, of every sort of your oblations^H8641, shall be the priests^H3548: ye shall also give^H5414 unto the priest^H3548 the first^H7225 of your dough^H6182, that he may cause the blessing^H1293 to rest^H5117 in thine house^H1004. ³¹The priests^H3548 shall not eat^H0398 of any thing that is dead of itself^H5038, or torn^H2966, whether it be fowl^H5775 or beast^H0929.

Ezekiel: Chapter 45

¹Moreover, when ye shall divide^H5307 by lot the land^H0776 for inheritance^H5159, ye shall offer^H7311 an oblation^H8641 unto the LORD^H3068, an holy portion^H6944 of the land^H0776: the length^H0753 shall be the length^H0753 of five^H2568 and twenty^H6242 thousand^H0505 reeds , and the breadth^H7341 shall be ten^H6235 thousand^H0505. This shall be holy^H6944 in all the borders^H1366 thereof round about^H5439. ²Of this there shall be for the sanctuary^H6944 five^H2568 hundred^H3967 in length , with five^H2568 hundred^H3967 in breadth , square^H7251 round about^H5439; and fifty^H2572 cubits^H0520 round about^H5439 for the suburbs^H4054 thereof. ³And of this measure^H4060 shalt thou measure^H4058 the length^H0753 of five^H2568 and twenty^H6242 thousand^H0505, and the breadth^H7341 of ten^H6235 thousand^H0505: and in it shall be the sanctuary^H4720 and the most^H6944 holy^H6944 place . ⁴The holy^H6944 portion of the land^H0776 shall be for the priests^H3548 the ministers^H8334 of the sanctuary^H4720, which shall come near^H7131 to minister^H8334 unto the LORD^H3068: and it shall be a place^H4725 for their houses^H1004, and an holy place^H4720 for the sanctuary^H4720. ⁵And the five^H2568 and twenty^H6242 thousand^H0505 of length^H0753, and the ten^H6235 thousand^H0505 of breadth^H7341, shall also the Levites^H3881, the ministers^H8334 of the house^H1004, have for themselves, for a possession^H0272 for twenty^H6242 chambers^H3957.

⁶And ye shall appoint^H5414 the possession^H0272 of the city^H5892 five^H2568 thousand^H0505 broad^H7341, and five^H2568 and twenty^H6242 thousand^H0505 long^H0753, over against^H5980 the oblation^H8641 of the holy^H6944 portion: it shall be for the whole house^H1004 of Israel^H3478.

⁷And a portion shall be for the prince^H5387 on the one side and on the other side of the oblation^H8641 of the holy^H6944 portion , and of the possession^H0272 of the city^H5892, before^H6440 the oblation^H8641 of the holy^H6944 portion , and before^H6440 the possession^H0272 of the city^H5892, from the west^H3220 side^H6285 westward^H3220, and from the east^H6924 side^H6285 eastward^H6921: and the length^H0753 shall be over against^H5980 one^H0259 of the portions^H2506, from the west^H3220 border^H1366 unto the east^H6921 border^H1366. ⁸In the land^H0776 shall be his possession^H0272 in Israel^H3478: and my princes^H5387 shall no more oppress^H3238 my people^H5971; and the rest of the land^H0776 shall they give^H5414 to the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478 according to their tribes^H7626.

⁹Thus saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; Let it suffice^H7227 you, O princes^H5387 of Israel^H3478: remove^H5493 violence^H2555 and spoil^H7701, and execute^H6213 judgment^H4941 and justice^H6666, take away^H7311 your exactions^H1646 from my people^H5971, saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ¹⁰Ye shall have just^H6664 balances^H3976, and a just^H6664 ephah^H0374, and a just^H6664 bath^H1324. ¹¹The ephah^H0374 and the bath^H1324 shall be of one^H0259 measure^H8506, that the bath^H1324 may contain^H5375 the tenth part^H4643 of an homer^H2563, and the ephah^H0374 the tenth part^H6224 of an homer^H2563: the measure^H4971 thereof shall be after the homer^H2563. ¹²And the shekel^H8255 shall be twenty^H6242 gerahs^H1626: twenty^H6242 shekels^H8255, five^H2568 and twenty^H6242 shekels^H8255, fifteen^H2568 shekels^H8255, shall be your maneh^H4488.

¹³This is the oblation^H8641 that ye shall offer^H7311; the sixth part^H8345 of an ephah^H0374 of an homer^H2563 of wheat^H2406, and ye shall give the sixth part^H8341 of an ephah^H0374 of an homer^H2563 of barley^H8184: ¹⁴Concerning the ordinance^H2706 of oil^H8081, the bath^H1324 of oil^H8081, ye shall offer the tenth part^H4643 of a bath^H1324 out of the cor^H3734, which is an homer^H2563 of ten^H6235 baths^H1324; for ten^H6235 baths^H1324 are an homer^H2563: ¹⁵And one^H0259 lamb^H7716 out of the flock^H6629, out of two hundred^H3967, out of the fat pastures^H4945 of Israel^H3478; for a meat offering^H4503, and for a burnt offering^H5930, and for peace offerings^H8002, to make reconciliation^H3722 for them, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069. ¹⁶All the people^H5971 of the land^H0776 shall give this oblation^H8641 for the prince^H5387 in Israel^H3478. ¹⁷And it shall be the princes part^H5387 to give burnt offerings^H5930, and meat offerings^H4503, and drink offerings^H5262, in the feasts^H2282, and in the new moons^H2320, and in the sabbaths^H7676, in all solemnities^H4150 of the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478: he shall prepare^H6213 the sin offering^H2403, and the meat offering^H4503, and the burnt offering^H5930, and the peace offerings^H8002, to make reconciliation^H3722 for the house^H1004 of Israel^H3478. ¹⁸Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; In the first^H7223 month , in the first^H0259 day of the month^H2320, thou shalt take^H3947 a young^H1121 bullock^H6499 without blemish^H8549, and cleanse^H2398 the sanctuary^H4720: ¹⁹And the priest^H3548 shall take^H3947 of the blood^H1818 of the sin offering^H2403, and put^H5414 it upon the posts^H4201 of the house^H1004, and upon the four^H0702 corners^H6438 of the settle^H5835 of the altar^H4196, and upon the posts^H4201 of the gate^H8179 of the inner^H6442 court^H2691. ²⁰And so thou shalt do^H6213 the seventh^H7651 day of the month^H2320 for every one^H0376 that erreth^H7686, and for him that is simple^H6612: so shall ye reconcile^H3722 the house^H1004. ²¹In the first^H7223 month , in the fourteenth^H0702 day^H3117 of the month^H2320, ye shall have the passover^H6453, a feast^H2282 of seven^H7620 days^H3117; unleavened bread^H4682 shall be eaten^H0398. ²²And upon that day^H3117 shall the prince^H5387 prepare^H6213 for himself and for all the people^H5971 of the land^H0776 a bullock^H6499 for a sin offering^H2403. ²³And seven^H7651 days^H3117 of the feast^H2282 he shall prepare^H6213 a burnt offering^H5930 to the LORD^H3068, seven^H7651 bullocks^H6499 and seven^H7651 rams^H0352 without blemish^H8549 daily^H3117 the seven^H7651 days^H3117; and a kid^H8163 of the goats^H5795 daily^H3117 for a sin offering^H2403. ²⁴And he shall prepare^H6213 a meat offering^H4503 of an ephah^H0374 for a bullock^H6499, and an ephah^H0374 for a ram^H0352, and an hin^H1969 of oil^H8081 for an ephah^H0374. ²⁵In the seventh^H7651 month , in the fifteenth^H2568 day^H3117 of the month^H2320, shall he do^H6213 the like in the feast^H2282 of the seven^H7637 days^H3117, according to the sin offering^H2403, according to the burnt offering^H5930, and according to the meat offering^H4503, and according to the oil^H8081.

Ezekiel: Chapter 46

¹Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; The gate^H8179 of the inner^H6442 court^H2691 that looketh^H6437 toward the east^H6921 shall be shut^H5462 the six^H8337 working^H4639 days^H3117; but on the sabbath^H7676 it shall be opened^H6605, and in the day^H3117 of the new moon^H2320 it shall be opened^H6605. ²And the prince^H5387 shall enter^H0935 by the way^H1870 of the porch^H0197 of that gate^H8179 without^H2351, and shall stand^H5975 by the post^H4201 of the gate^H8179, and the priests^H3548 shall prepare^H6213 his burnt offering^H5930 and his peace offerings^H8002, and he shall worship^H7812 at the threshold^H4670 of the gate^H8179: then he shall go forth^H3318; but the gate^H8179 shall not be shut^H5462 until the evening^H6153. ³Likewise the people^H5971 of the land^H0776 shall worship^H7812 at the door^H6607 of this gate^H8179 before^H6440 the LORD^H3068 in the sabbaths^H7676 and in the new moons^H2320. ⁴And the burnt offering^H5930 that the prince^H5387 shall offer^H7126 unto the LORD^H3068 in the sabbath^H7676 day^H3117 shall be six^H8337 lambs^H3532 without blemish^H8549, and a ram^H0352 without blemish^H8549. ⁵And the meat offering^H4503 shall be an ephah^H0374 for a ram^H0352, and the meat offering^H4503 for the lambs^H3532 as he shall be able^H3027 to give^H4991, and an hin^H1969 of oil^H8081 to an ephah^H0374. ⁶And in the day^H3117 of the new moon^H2320 it shall be a young^H1121 bullock^H6499 without blemish^H8549, and six^H8337 lambs^H3532, and a ram^H0352: they shall be without blemish^H8549. ⁷And he shall prepare^H6213 a meat offering^H4503, an ephah^H0374 for a bullock^H6499, and an ephah^H0374 for a ram^H0352, and for the lambs^H3532 according as his hand^H3027 shall attain^H5381 unto, and an hin^H1969 of oil^H8081 to an ephah^H0374. ⁸And when the prince^H5387 shall enter^H0935, he shall go^H0935 in by the way^H1870 of the porch^H0197 of that gate^H8179, and he shall go forth^H3318 by the way^H1870 thereof.

⁹But when the people^H5971 of the land^H0776 shall come^H0935 before^H6440 the LORD^H3068 in the solemn feasts^H4150, he that entereth^H0935 in by the way^H1870 of the north^H6828 gate^H8179 to worship^H7812 shall go out^H3318 by the way^H1870 of the south^H5045 gate^H8179; and he that entereth^H0935 by the way^H1870 of the south^H5045 gate^H8179 shall go forth^H3318 by the way^H1870 of the north^H6828 gate^H8179: he shall not return^H7725 by the way^H1870 of the gate^H8179 whereby he came in^H0935, but shall go forth^H3318 over against^H5226 it. ¹⁰And the prince^H5387 in the midst^H8432 of them, when they go in^H0935, shall go in^H0935; and when they go forth^H3318, shall go forth^H3318. ¹¹And in the feasts^H2282 and in the solemnities^H4150 the meat offering^H4503 shall be an ephah^H0374 to a bullock^H6499, and an ephah^H0374 to a ram^H0352, and to the lambs^H3532 as he is able^H3027 to give^H4991, and an hin^H1969 of oil^H8081 to an ephah^H0374. ¹²Now when the prince^H5387 shall prepare^H6213 a voluntary^H5071 burnt offering^H5930 or peace offerings^H8002 voluntarily^H5071 unto the LORD^H3068, one shall then open^H6605 him the gate^H8179 that looketh^H6437 toward the east^H6921, and he shall prepare^H6213 his burnt offering^H5930 and his peace offerings^H8002, as he did^H6213 on the sabbath^H7676 day^H3117: then he shall go forth^H3318; and after^H0310 his going forth^H3318 one shall shut^H5462 the gate^H8179. ¹³Thou shalt daily^H3117 prepare^H6213 a burnt offering^H5930 unto the LORD^H3068 of a lamb^H3532 of the first^H1121 year^H8141 without blemish^H8549: thou shalt prepare^H6213 it every^H1242 morning^H1242. ¹⁴And thou shalt prepare^H6213 a meat offering^H4503 for it every morning^H1242, the sixth part^H8345 of an ephah^H0374, and the third part^H7992 of an hin^H1969 of oil^H8081, to temper with^H7450 the fine flour^H5560; a meat offering^H4503 continually^H8548 by a perpetual^H5769 ordinance^H2708 unto the LORD^H3068. ¹⁵Thus shall they prepare^H6213 the lamb^H3532, and the meat offering^H4503, and the oil^H8081, every morning^H1242 for a continual^H8548 burnt offering^H5930.

¹⁶Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; If the prince^H5387 give^H5414 a gift^H4979 unto any^H0376 of his sons^H1121, the inheritance^H5159 thereof shall be his sons^H1121; it shall be their possession^H0272 by inheritance^H5159. ¹⁷But if he give^H5414 a gift^H4979 of his inheritance^H5159 to one^H0259 of his servants^H5650, then it shall be his to the year^H8141 of liberty^H1865; after it shall return^H7725 to the prince^H5387: but his inheritance^H5159 shall be his sons^H1121 for them. ¹⁸Moreover the prince^H5387 shall not take^H3947 of the peoples^H5971 inheritance^H5159 by oppression^H3238, to thrust^H3238 them out of their possession^H0272; but he shall give his sons^H1121 inheritance^H5157 out of his own possession^H0272: that my people^H5971 be not scattered^H6327 every man^H0376 from his possession^H0272.

¹⁹After he brought^H0935 me through the entry^H3996, which was at the side^H3802 of the gate^H8179, into the holy^H6944 chambers^H3957 of the priests^H3548, which looked^H6437 toward the north^H6828: and, behold, there was a place^H4725 on the two sides^H3411 westward^H3220. ²⁰Then said^H0559 he unto me, This is the place^H4725 where the priests^H3548 shall boil^H1310 the trespass offering^H0817 and the sin offering^H2403, where they shall bake^H0644 the meat offering^H4503; that they bear^H3318 them not out into the utter^H2435 court^H2691, to sanctify^H6942 the people^H5971. ²¹Then he brought me forth^H3318 into the utter^H2435 court^H2691, and caused me to pass by^H5674 the four^H0702 corners^H4740 of the court^H2691; and, behold, in every^H4740 corner^H4740 of the court^H2691 there was a court^H2691. ²²In the four^H0702 corners^H4740 of the court^H2691 there were courts^H2691 joined^H7000 of forty^H0705 cubits long^H0753 and thirty^H7970 broad^H7341: these four^H0702 corners^H7106 were of one^H0259 measure^H4060. ²³And there was a row^H2905 of building round about^H5439 in them, round about^H5439 them four^H0702, and it was made^H6213 with boiling places^H4018 under the rows^H2918 round about^H5439. ²⁴Then said^H0559 he unto me, These are the places^H1004 of them that boil^H1310, where the ministers^H8334 of the house^H1004 shall boil^H1310 the sacrifice^H2077 of the people^H5971.

Ezekiel: Chapter 47

¹Afterward he brought me again^H7725 unto the door^H6607 of the house^H1004; and, behold, waters^H4325 issued out^H3318 from under the threshold^H4670 of the house^H1004 eastward^H6921: for the forefront^H6440 of the house^H1004 stood toward the east^H6921, and the waters^H4325 came down^H3381 from under from the right^H3233 side^H3802 of the house^H1004, at the south^H5045 side of the altar^H4196. ²Then brought he me out^H3318 of the way^H1870 of the gate^H8179 northward^H6828, and led me about^H5437 the way^H1870 without unto the utter^H2351 gate^H8179 by the way^H1870 that looketh^H6437 eastward^H6921; and, behold, there ran out^H6379 waters^H4325 on the right^H3233 side^H3802. ³And when the man^H0376 that had the line^H6957 in his hand^H3027 went forth^H3318 eastward^H6921, he measured^H4058 a thousand^H0505 cubits^H0520, and he brought me through^H5674 the waters^H4325; the waters^H4325 were to the ankles^H0657. ⁴Again he measured^H4058 a thousand^H0505, and brought me through^H5674 the waters^H4325; the waters^H4325 were to the knees^H1290. Again he measured^H4058 a thousand^H0505, and brought me through^H5674; the waters^H4325 were to the loins^H4975. ⁵Afterward he measured^H4058 a thousand^H0505; and it was a river^H5158 that I could^H3201 not pass over^H5674: for the waters^H4325 were risen^H1342, waters^H4325 to swim in^H7813, a river^H5158 that could not be passed over^H5674.

⁶And he said^H0559 unto me, Son^H1121 of man^H0120, hast thou seen^H7200 this ? Then he brought^H3212 me, and caused me to return^H7725 to the brink^H8193 of the river^H5158. ⁷Now when I had returned^H7725, behold, at the bank^H8193 of the river^H5158 were very^H3966 many^H7227 trees^H6086 on the one side and on the other. ⁸Then said^H0559 he unto me, These waters^H4325 issue out^H3318 toward the east^H6930 country^H1552, and go down^H3381 into the desert^H6160, and go^H0935 into the sea^H3220: which being brought forth^H3318 into the sea^H3220, the waters^H4325 shall be healed^H7495. ⁹And it shall come to pass, that every thing^H5315 that liveth^H2416, which moveth^H8317, whithersoever the rivers^H5158 shall come^H0935, shall live^H2421: and there shall be a very^H3966 great^H7227 multitude of fish^H1710, because these waters^H4325 shall come^H0935 thither: for they shall be healed^H7495; and every thing shall live^H2425 whither the river^H5158 cometh^H0935. ¹⁰And it shall come to pass, that the fishers^H1728 shall stand^H5975 upon it from En-gedi^H5872 even unto En-eglaim^H5882; they shall be a place to spread forth^H4894 nets^H2764; their fish^H1710 shall be according to their kinds^H4327, as the fish^H1710 of the great^H1419 sea^H3220, exceeding^H3966 many^H7227. ¹¹But the miry places^H1207 thereof and the marishes^H1360 thereof shall not be healed^H7495; they shall be given^H5414 to salt^H4417. ¹²And by the river^H5158 upon the bank^H8193 thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow^H5927 all trees^H6086 for meat^H3978, whose leaf^H5929 shall not fade^H5034, neither shall the fruit^H6529 thereof be consumed^H8552: it shall bring forth new fruit^H1069 according to his months^H2320, because their waters^H4325 they issued out^H3318 of the sanctuary^H4720: and the fruit^H6529 thereof shall be for meat^H3978, and the leaf^H5929 thereof for medicine^H8644.

¹³Thus saith^H0559 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069; This^H1454 shall be the border^H1366, whereby ye shall inherit^H5157 the land^H0776 according to the twelve^H8147 tribes^H7626 of Israel^H3478: Joseph^H3130 shall have two portions^H2256. ¹⁴And ye shall inherit^H5157 it, one^H0376 as well as another^H0251: concerning the which I lifted up^H5375 mine hand^H3027 to give^H5414 it unto your fathers^H0001: and this land^H0776 shall fall^H5307 unto you for inheritance^H5159. ¹⁵And this shall be the border^H1366 of the land^H0776 toward the north^H6828 side^H6285, from the great^H1419 sea^H3220, the way^H1870 of Hethlon^H2855, as men go^H0935 to Zedad^H6657; ¹⁶ Hamath^H2574, Berothah^H1268, Sibraim^H5453, which is between the border^H1366 of Damascus^H1834 and the border^H1366 of Hamath^H2574; Hazar-hatticon^H2694, which is by the coast^H1366 of Hauran^H2362. ¹⁷And the border^H1366 from the sea^H3220 shall be Hazar-enan^H2703, the border^H1366 of Damascus^H1834, and the north^H6828 northward^H6828, and the border^H1366 of Hamath^H2574. And this is the north^H6828 side^H6285. ¹⁸And the east^H6921 side^H6285 ye shall measure^H4058 from^H0996 Hauran^H2362, and from^H0996 Damascus^H1834, and from^H0996 Gilead^H1568, and from^H0996 the land^H0776 of Israel^H3478 by Jordan^H3383, from the border^H1366 unto the east^H6931 sea^H3220. And this is the east^H6921 side^H6285. ¹⁹And the south^H5045 side^H6285 southward^H8486, from Tamar^H8559 even to the waters^H4325 of strife^H4808 in Kadesh^H6946, the river^H5158 to the great^H1419 sea^H3220. And this is the south^H8486 side^H6285 southward^H5045. ²⁰The west^H3220 side^H6285 also shall be the great^H1419 sea^H3220 from the border^H1366, till a man come^H0935 over against^H5227 Hamath^H2574. This is the west^H3220 side^H6285. ²¹So shall ye divide^H2505 this land^H0776 unto you according to the tribes^H7626 of Israel^H3478.

²²And it shall come to pass, that ye shall divide^H5307 it by lot for an inheritance^H5159 unto you, and to the strangers^H1616 that sojourn^H1481 among^H8432 you, which shall beget^H3205 children^H1121 among^H8432 you: and they shall be unto you as born^H0249 in the country^H0249 among the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478; they shall have^H5307 inheritance^H5159 with you among^H8432 the tribes^H7626 of Israel^H3478. ²³And it shall come to pass, that in what tribe^H7626 the stranger^H1616 sojourneth^H1481, there shall ye give^H5414 him his inheritance^H5159, saith^H5002 the Lord^H0136 GOD^H3069.
