Ezekiel 1
1. Now it came <1961> to pass in the thirtieth <7970> year
<8141>, in the fourth <7243> [month], in the fifth <2568> [day]
of the month <2320>, as I [was] among <8432> the captives <1473>
by the river <5104> of Chebar <3529>, [that] the heavens <8064>
were opened <6605>, and I saw <7200> visions <4759> of God
<0430>.
2 In the fifth <2568> [day] of the month <2320>, which <1958>
[was] the fifth <2549> year <8141> of king <4428> Jehoiachin's
<3112> captivity <1546>,
3 The word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> expressly unto
Ezekiel <3168> the priest <3548>, the son <1121> of Buzi <0941>,
in the land <0776> of the Chaldeans <3779> by the river <5104>
Chebar <3529>; and the hand <3027> of the LORD <3068> was there
<8033> upon him.
4. And I looked <7200>, and, behold <2009>, a whirlwind came
<0935> out of the north <6828>, a great <1419> cloud <6051>, and
a fire <0784> infolding <3947> itself, and a brightness <5051>
[was] about <5439> it, and out of the midst <8432> thereof as
the colour <5869> of amber <2830>, out of the midst <8432> of
the fire <0784>.
5 Also out of the midst <8432> thereof [came] the likeness
<1823> of four <0702> living <2416> creatures <2416>. And this
<2088> [was] their appearance <4758>; they had the likeness
<1823> of a man <0120>.
6 And every one <0259> had four <0702> faces <6440>, and every
one <0259> had four <0702> wings <3671>.
7 And their feet <7272> [were] straight <3474> feet <7272>; and
the sole <3709> of their feet <7272> [was] like the sole <3709>
of a calf's <5695> foot <7272>: and they sparkled <5340> like
the colour <5869> of burnished <7044> brass <5178>.
8 And [they had] the hands <3027> of a man <0120> under <8478>
their wings <3671> on <5921> their four <0702> sides <7253>; and
they four <0702> had their faces <6440> and their wings <3671>.
9 Their wings <3671> [were] joined <2266> one <0802> to another
<0269>; they turned <5437> not when they went <3212>; they went
<3212> every <0376> one <0376> straight <5676> forward <6440>.
10 As for the likeness <1823> of their faces <6440>, they four
<0702> had the face <6440> of a man <0120>, and the face <6440>
of a lion <0738>, on <0413> the right <3225> side <3225>: and
they four <0702> had the face <6440> of an ox <7794> on the left
<8040> side <8040>; they four <0702> also had the face <6440> of
an eagle <5404>.
11 Thus [were] their faces <6440>: and their wings <3671>
[were] stretched <6504> upward <4605>; two <8147> [wings] of
every <0376> one <0376> [were] joined <2266> one <0376> to
another <0376>, and two <8147> covered <3680> their bodies
<1472>.
12 And they went <3212> every <0376> one <0376> straight <5676>
forward <6440>: whither the spirit <7307> was to go <3212>, they
went <3212>; [and] they turned <5437> not when they went <3212>.
13 As for the likeness <1823> of the living <2416> creatures
<2416>, their appearance <4758> [was] like burning <1197> coals
<1513> of fire <0784>, [and] like the appearance <4758> of lamps
<3940>: it went <1980> up and down among <0996> the living
<2416> creatures <2416>; and the fire <0784> was bright <5051>,
and out of the fire <0784> went <3318> forth <3318> lightning
<1300>.
14 And the living <2416> creatures <2416> ran <7519> and
returned <7725> as the appearance <4758> of a flash <0965> of
lightning <0965>.
15. Now as I beheld <7200> the living <2416> creatures <2416>,
behold <2009> one <0259> wheel <0212> upon the earth <0776> by
the living <2416> creatures <2416>, with his four <0702> faces
<6440>.
16 The appearance <4758> of the wheels <0212> and their work
<4639> [was] like unto the colour <5869> of a beryl <8658>: and
they four <0702> had one <0259> likeness <1823>: and their
appearance <4758> and their work <4639> [was] as it were a wheel
<0212> in the middle <8432> of a wheel <0212>.
17 When they went <3212>, they went <3212> upon their four
<0702> sides <7253>: [and] they turned <5437> not when they went
<3212>.
18 As for their rings <1354>, they were so high <1362> that
they were dreadful <3374>; and their rings <1354> [were] full
<4392> of eyes <5869> round <5439> about them four <0702>.
19 And when the living <2416> creatures <2416> went <3212>, the
wheels <0212> went <3212> by them: and when the living <2416>
creatures <2416> were lifted <5375> up from the earth <0776>,
the wheels <0212> were lifted <5375> up.
20 Whithersoever the spirit <7307> was to go <3212>, they went
<3212>, thither <8033> [was their] spirit <7307> to go <3212>;
and the wheels <0212> were lifted <5375> up over <5980> against
<5980> them: for the spirit <7307> of the living <2416> creature
<2416> [was] in the wheels <0212>.
21 When those went <3212>, [these] went <3212>; and when those
stood <5975>, [these] stood <5975>; and when those were lifted
<5375> up from the earth <0776>, the wheels <0212> were lifted
<5375> up over <5980> against <5980> them: for the spirit <7307>
of the living <2416> creature <2416> [was] in the wheels <0212>.
22 And the likeness <1823> of the firmament <7549> upon the
heads <7218> of the living <2416> creature <2416> [was] as the
colour <5869> of the terrible <3372> crystal <7140>, stretched
<5186> forth over <5921> their heads <7218> above <4605>.
23 And under <8478> the firmament <7549> [were] their wings
<3671> straight <3474>, the one <0802> toward <0413> the other
<0269>: every <0376> one <0376> had two <8147>, which covered
<3680> on this <2007> side, and every <0376> one <0376> had two
<8147>, which covered <3680> on that side, their bodies <1472>.
24 And when they went <3212>, I heard <8085> the noise <6963>
of their wings <3671>, like the noise <6963> of great <7227>
waters <4325>, as the voice <6963> of the Almighty <7706>, the
voice <6963> of speech <1999>, as the noise <6963> of an host
<4264>: when they stood <5975>, they let <7503> down <7503>
their wings <3671>.
25 And there was a voice <6963> from the firmament <7549> that
[was] over <5921> their heads <7218>, when they stood <5975>,
[and] had let <7503> down <7503> their wings <3671>.
26. And above <4605> the firmament <7549> that [was] over
<5921> their heads <7218> [was] the likeness <1823> of a throne
<3678>, as the appearance <4758> of a sapphire <5601> stone <68>:
and upon the likeness <1823> of the throne <3678> [was] the
likeness <1823> as the appearance <4758> of a man <0120> above
<4605> upon it.
27 And I saw <7200> as the colour <5869> of amber <2830>, as
the appearance <4758> of fire <0784> round <5439> about within
<1004> it, from the appearance <4758> of his loins <4975> even
upward <4605>, and from the appearance <4758> of his loins
<4975> even downward <4295>, I saw <7200> as it were the
appearance <4758> of fire <0784>, and it had brightness <5051>
round <5439> about.
28 As the appearance <4758> of the bow <7198> that is in the
cloud <6051> in the day <3117> of rain <1653>, so <3651> [was]
the appearance <4758> of the brightness <5051> round <5439>
about. This <1931> [was] the appearance <4758> of the likeness
<1823> of the glory <3519> of the LORD <3068>. And when I saw
<7200> [it], I fell <5307> upon my face <6440>, and I heard
<8085> a voice <6963> of one that spake <1696>.
Ezekiel 2
1. And he said <0559> unto me, Son <1121> of man <0120>, stand
<5975> upon thy feet <7272>, and I will speak <1696> unto thee.
2 And the spirit <7307> entered <0935> into me when <0834> he
spake <1696> unto me, and set <5975> me upon my feet <7272>,
that I heard <8085> him that spake <1696> unto me.
3 And he said <0559> unto me, Son <1121> of man <0120>, I send
<7971> thee to the children <1121> of Israel <3478>, to a
rebellious <4775> nation <1471> that hath rebelled <4775>
against me: they and their fathers <1> have transgressed <6586>
against me, [even] unto this <2088> very <6106> day <3117>.
4 For [they are] impudent children <1121> and stiffhearted. I
do send <7971> thee unto them; and thou shalt say <0559> unto
them, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
5 And they, whether <0518> they will hear <8085>, or whether
<0518> they will forbear <2308>, (for they [are] a rebellious
<4805> house <1004>,) yet shall know <3045> that there hath been
<1961> a prophet <5030> among <8432> them.
6. And thou, son <1121> of man <0120>, be not afraid <3372> of
them, neither <0408> be afraid <3372> of their words <1697>,
though <3588> briers <5621> and thorns <5544> [be] with thee,
and thou dost dwell <3427> among <0413> scorpions <6137>: be not
afraid <3372> of their words <1697>, nor <0408> be dismayed
<2865> at their looks <6400>, though <3588> they [be] a
rebellious <4805> house.
7 And thou shalt speak <1696> my words <1697> unto them,
whether <0518> they will hear <8085>, or whether <0518> they
will forbear <2308>: for they [are] most rebellious <4805>.
8 But thou, son <1121> of man <0120>, hear <8085> what I say
<1696> unto thee; Be not thou rebellious <4805> like that
rebellious <4805> house <1004>: open <6475> thy mouth <6310>,
and eat <0398> that I give <5414> thee.
9 And when I looked <7200>, behold <2009>, an hand <3027> [was]
sent <7971> unto me; and, lo <2009>, a roll <4040> of a book
<5612> [was] therein;
10 And he spread <6566> it before <6440> me; and it [was]
written <3789> within <6440> and without <0268>: and [there was]
written <3789> therein <0413> lamentations <7015>, and mourning
<1899>, and woe <1958>.
Ezekiel 3
1. Moreover he said <0559> unto me, Son <1121> of man <0120>,
eat <0398> that thou findest <4672>; eat <0398> this <2063> roll
<4040>, and go <3212> speak <1696> unto the house <1004> of
Israel <3478>.
2 So I opened <6605> my mouth <6310>, and he caused me to eat
<0398> that roll <4040>.
3 And he said <0559> unto me, Son <1121> of man <0120>, cause
thy belly <0990> to eat <0398>, and fill <4390> thy bowels
<4578> with this <2063> roll <4040> that I give <5414> thee.
Then did I eat <0398> [it]; and it was in my mouth <6310> as
honey <1706> for sweetness <4966>.
4 And he said <0559> unto me, Son <1121> of man <0120>, go
<3212>, get <0935> thee unto the house <1004> of Israel <3478>,
and speak <1696> with my words <1697> unto them.
5 For thou [art] not sent <7971> to a people <5971> of a
strange <6012> speech <8193> and of an hard <3515> language
<3956>, [but] to the house <1004> of Israel <3478>;
6 Not to many <7227> people <5971> of a strange <6012> speech
<8193> and of an hard <3515> language <3956>, whose <0834> words
<1697> thou canst not understand <8085>. Surely, had I sent
<7971> thee to them, they would have hearkened <8085> unto thee.
7 But the house <1004> of Israel <3478> will <14> not hearken
<8085> unto thee; for they will <14> not hearken <8085> unto me:
for all <3605> the house <1004> of Israel <3478> [are] impudent
and hardhearted.
8 Behold <2009>, I have made <5414> thy face <6440> strong
<2389> against <5980> their faces <6440>, and thy forehead
<4696> strong <2389> against <5980> their foreheads <4696>.
9 As an adamant <8068> harder <2389> than flint <6864> have I
made <5414> thy forehead <4696>: fear <3372> them not, neither
<3808> be dismayed <2865> at their looks <6400>, though they
[be] a rebellious <4805> house <1004>.
10 Moreover he said <0559> unto me, Son <1121> of man <0120>,
all <3605> my words <1697> that I shall speak <1696> unto thee
receive <3947> in thine heart <3824>, and hear <8085> with thine
ears <0241>.
11 And go <3212>, get <0935> thee to them of the captivity
<1473>, unto the children <1121> of thy people <5971>, and speak
<1696> unto them, and tell <0559> them, Thus <3541> saith <0559>
the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; whether <0518> they will hear <8085>,
or whether <0518> they will forbear <2308>.
12 Then the spirit <7307> took <5375> me up, and I heard <8085>
behind <0310> me a voice <6963> of a great <1419> rushing <7494>,
[saying], Blessed <1288> [be] the glory <3519> of the LORD
<3068> from his place <4725>.
13 [I heard] also the noise <6963> of the wings <3671> of the
living <2416> creatures <2416> that touched <5401> one <0802>
another <0269>, and the noise <6963> of the wheels <0212> over
<5980> against <5980> them, and a noise <6963> of a great <1419>
rushing <7494>.
14 So the spirit <7307> lifted <5375> me up, and took <3947> me
away, and I went <3212> in bitterness <4751>, in the heat <2534>
of my spirit <7307>; but the hand <3027> of the LORD <3068> was
strong <2388> upon me.
15 Then I came <0935> to them of the captivity <1473> at
Telabib <8512>, that dwelt <3427> by the river <5104> of Chebar
<3529>, and I sat <3427> where <8033> they sat <3427>, and
remained <3427> there <8033> astonished <8074> among <8432> them
seven <7651> days <3117>.
16. And it came <1961> to pass at the end <7097> of seven
<7651> days <3117>, that the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came
<1961> unto me, saying <0559>,
17 Son <1121> of man <0120>, I have made <5414> thee a watchman
<6822> unto the house <1004> of Israel <3478>: therefore hear
<8085> the word <1697> at my mouth <6310>, and give them warning
<2094> from me.
18 When I say <0559> unto the wicked <7563>, Thou shalt surely
die <4191>; and thou givest him not warning <2094>, nor <3808>
speakest <1696> to warn <2094> the wicked <7563> from his wicked
<7563> way <1870>, to save <2421> his life <2421>; the same
<1931> wicked <7563> [man] shall die <4191> in his iniquity
<5771>; but his blood <1818> will I require <1245> at thine hand
<3027>.
19 Yet if <3588> thou warn <2094> the wicked <7563>, and he
turn <7725> not from his wickedness <7562>, nor from his wicked
<7563> way <1870>, he shall die <4191> in his iniquity <5771>;
but thou hast delivered <5337> thy soul <5315>.
20 Again <7725>, When a righteous <6662> [man] doth turn <7725>
from his righteousness <6664>, and commit <6213> iniquity <5766>,
and I lay <5414> a stumblingblock <4383> before <6440> him, he
shall die <4191>: because <3588> thou hast not given him warning
<2094>, he shall die <4191> in his sin <2403>, and his
righteousness <6666> which <0834> he hath done <6213> shall not
be remembered <2142>; but his blood <1818> will I require <1245>
at thine hand <3027>.
21 Nevertheless if <3588> thou warn <2094> the righteous <6662>
[man], that the righteous <6662> sin <2398> not, and he doth not
sin <2398>, he shall surely live <2421>, because <3588> he is
warned <2094>; also thou hast delivered <5337> thy soul <5315>.
22. And the hand <3027> of the LORD <3068> was there <8033>
upon me; and he said <0559> unto me, Arise <6965>, go <3318>
forth <3318> into <0413> the plain <1237>, and I will there
<8033> talk <1696> with thee.
23 Then I arose <6965>, and went <3318> forth <3318> into
<0413> the plain <1237>: and, behold <2009>, the glory <3519> of
the LORD <3068> stood <5975> there <8033>, as the glory <3519>
which <0834> I saw <7200> by the river <5104> of Chebar <3529>:
and I fell <5307> on <5921> my face <6440>.
24 Then the spirit <7307> entered <0935> into me, and set
<5975> me upon my feet <7272>, and spake <1696> with me, and
said <0559> unto me, Go <0935>, shut <5462> thyself within
<8432> thine house <1004>.
25 But thou, O son <1121> of man <0120>, behold <2009>, they
shall put <5414> bands <5688> upon thee, and shall bind <0631>
thee with them, and thou shalt not go <3318> out among <8432>
them:
26 And I will make thy tongue <3956> cleave <1692> to the roof
<2441> of thy mouth <2441>, that thou shalt be dumb <0481>, and
shalt not be to them a reprover <3198>: for they [are] a
rebellious <4805> house <1004>.
27 But when I speak <1696> with thee, I will open <6605> thy
mouth <6310>, and thou shalt say <0559> unto them, Thus <3541>
saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; He that heareth <8085>,
let him hear <8085>; and he that forbeareth <2310>, let him
forbear <2308>: for they [are] a rebellious <4805> house <1004>.
Ezekiel 4
1. Thou also, son <1121> of man <0120>, take <3947> thee a tile
<3843>, and lay <5414> it before <6440> thee, and pourtray
<2710> upon it the city <5892>, [even <0853>] Jerusalem <3389>:
2 And lay <5414> siege <4692> against <5921> it, and build
<1129> a fort <1785> against <5921> it, and cast <8210> a mount
<5550> against <5921> it; set <5414> the camp <4264> also
against <5921> it, and set <7760> [battering] rams <3733>
against <5921> it round <5439> about.
3 Moreover take <3947> thou unto thee an iron <1270> pan <4227>,
and set <5414> it [for] a wall <7023> of iron <1270> between
<0996> thee and the city <5892>: and set <3559> thy face <6440>
against <0413> it, and it shall be besieged <4692>, and thou
shalt lay siege <6696> against <5921> it. This <1931> [shall be]
a sign <0226> to the house <1004> of Israel <3478>.
4 Lie <7901> thou also upon thy left <8042> side <6654>, and
lay <7760> the iniquity <5771> of the house <1004> of Israel
<3478> upon it: [according] to the number <4557> of the days
<3117> that thou shalt lie <7901> upon it thou shalt bear <5375>
their iniquity <5771>.
5 For I have laid <5414> upon thee the years <8141> of their
iniquity <5771>, according to the number <4557> of the days
<3117>, three <7969> hundred <3967> and ninety <8673> days
<3117>: so shalt thou bear <5375> the iniquity <5771> of the
house <1004> of Israel <3478>.
6 And when thou hast accomplished <3615> them, lie <7901> again
<8145> on <5921> thy right <6227> side <6654>, and thou shalt
bear <5375> the iniquity <5771> of the house <1004> of Judah
<3063> forty <0705> days <3117>: I have appointed <5414> thee
each day <3117> for a year <8141>.
7 Therefore thou shalt set <3559> thy face <6440> toward <0413>
the siege <4692> of Jerusalem <3389>, and thine arm <2220>
[shall be] uncovered <2834>, and thou shalt prophesy <5012>
against <5921> it.
8 And, behold <2009>, I will lay bands <5688> upon thee, and
thou shalt not turn <2015> thee from one side <6654> to another,
till <5704> thou hast ended <3615> the days <3117> of thy siege
<4692>.
9. Take <3947> thou also unto thee wheat <2406>, and barley
<8184>, and beans <6321>, and lentiles <5742>, and millet <1764>,
and fitches <3698>, and put <5414> them in one <0259> vessel
<3627>, and make <6213> thee bread <3899> thereof, [according]
to the number <4557> of the days <3117> that thou shalt lie
<7901> upon thy side <6654>, three <7969> hundred <3967> and
ninety <8673> days <3117> shalt thou eat <0398> thereof.
10 And thy meat <3978> which <0834> thou shalt eat <0398>
[shall be] by weight <4946>, twenty <6242> shekels <8255> a day
<3117>: from time <6256> to time <6256> shalt thou eat <0398> it.
11 Thou shalt drink <8354> also water <4325> by measure <4884>,
the sixth <8345> part of an hin <1969>: from time <6256> to time
<6256> shalt thou drink <8354>.
12 And thou shalt eat <0398> it [as] barley <8184> cakes <5692>,
and thou shalt bake <5746> it with dung <1561> that cometh
<6627> out of man <0120>, in their sight <5869>.
13 And the LORD <3068> said <0559>, Even <3602> thus <3602>
shall the children <1121> of Israel <3478> eat <0398> their
defiled <2931> bread <3899> among the Gentiles <1471>, whither I
will drive <5080> them.
14 Then said <0559> I, Ah <0162> Lord <0136> GOD <3069>! behold
<2009>, my soul <5315> hath not been polluted <2930>: for from
my youth <5271> up even till <5704> now <6258> have I not eaten
<0398> of that which dieth <5038> of itself, or is torn <2966>
in pieces; neither <3808> came <0935> there abominable <6292>
flesh <1320> into my mouth <6310>.
15 Then he said <0559> unto me, Lo <7200>, I have given <5414>
thee cow's <1241> dung <6832> for man's <0120> dung <1561>, and
thou shalt prepare <6213> thy bread <3899> therewith <5921>.
16 Moreover he said <0559> unto me, Son <1121> of man <0120>,
behold <2005>, I will break <7665> the staff <4294> of bread
<3899> in Jerusalem <3389>: and they shall eat <0398> bread
<3899> by weight <4948>, and with care <1674>; and they shall
drink <8354> water <4325> by measure <4884>, and with
astonishment <8078>:
17 That they may want <2637> bread <3899> and water <4325>, and
be astonied <8074> one <0376> with another <0250>, and consume
<4743> away for their iniquity <5771>.
Ezekiel 5
1. And thou, son <1121> of man <0120>, take <3947> thee a sharp
<2299> knife <2719>, take <3947> thee a barber's <1532> razor
<8593>, and cause [it] to pass <5674> upon thine head <7218> and
upon thy beard <2206>: then take <3947> thee balances <3976> to
weigh <4948>, and divide <2505> the [hair].
2 Thou shalt burn <1197> with fire <0217> a third <7992> part
in the midst <8432> of the city <5892>, when the days <3117> of
the siege <4692> are fulfilled <4390>: and thou shalt take
<3947> a third <7992> part, [and] smite <5221> about <5439> it
with a knife <2719>: and a third <7992> part thou shalt scatter
<2219> in the wind <7307>; and I will draw <7324> out a sword
<2719> after <0310> them.
3 Thou shalt also take <3947> thereof a few <4592> in number
<4557>, and bind <6887> them in thy skirts <3671>.
4 Then take <3947> of them again <5750>, and cast <7993> them
into <0413> the midst <8432> of the fire <0784>, and burn <8313>
them in the fire <0784>; [for] thereof shall a fire <0784> come
<3318> forth <3318> into <0413> all <3605> the house <1004> of
Israel <3478>.
5. Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; This
<2063> [is] Jerusalem <3389>: I have set <7760> it in the midst
<8432> of the nations <1471> and countries <0776> [that are]
round <5439> about her.
6 And she hath changed <4171> my judgments <4941> into
wickedness <7564> more <4480> than <4480> the nations <1471>,
and my statutes <2708> more <4480> than <4480> the countries
<0776> that [are] round <5439> about her: for they have refused
<3988> my judgments <4941> and my statutes <2708>, they have not
walked <1980> in them.
7 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>; Because <3282> ye multiplied <1995> more <4480> than
<4480> the nations <1471> that [are] round <5439> about you,
[and] have not walked <1980> in my statutes <2708>, neither
<3808> have kept <6213> my judgments <4941>, neither <3808> have
done <6213> according to the judgments <4941> of the nations
<1471> that [are] round <5439> about you;
8 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>; Behold <2005>, I, even <1571> I, [am] against <5921>
thee, and will execute <6213> judgments <4941> in the midst
<8432> of thee in the sight <5869> of the nations <1471>.
9 And I will do <6213> in thee that which <0834> I have not
done <6213>, and whereunto <0834> I will not do <6213> any more
<5750> the like <3644>, because <3282> of all <3605> thine
abominations <8441>.
10 Therefore <3651> the fathers <1> shall eat <0398> the sons
<1121> in the midst <8432> of thee, and the sons <1121> shall
eat <0398> their fathers <1>; and I will execute <6213>
judgments <8201> in thee, and the whole <3605> remnant <7611> of
thee will I scatter <2219> into all <3605> the winds <7307>.
11 Wherefore <3651>, [as] I live <2416>, saith <5002> the Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>; Surely, because <3282> thou hast defiled
<2930> my sanctuary <4720> with all <3605> thy detestable <8251>
things, and with all <3605> thine abominations <8441>, therefore
will I also <1571> diminish <1639> [thee]; neither <1571> shall
mine eye <5869> spare <2347>, neither <1571> will I have any
pity <2550>.
12 A third <7992> part of thee shall die <4191> with the
pestilence <1698>, and with famine <7458> shall they be consumed
<3615> in the midst <8432> of thee: and a third <7992> part
shall fall <5307> by the sword <2719> round <5439> about thee;
and I will scatter <2219> a third <7992> part into all <3605>
the winds <7307>, and I will draw <7324> out a sword <2719>
after <0310> them.
13 Thus shall mine anger <0639> be accomplished <3615>, and I
will cause my fury <2534> to rest <5117> upon them, and I will
be comforted <5162>: and they shall know <3045> that I the LORD
<3068> have spoken <1696> [it] in my zeal <7068>, when I have
accomplished <3615> my fury <2534> in them.
14 Moreover I will make <5414> thee waste <2723>, and a
reproach <2781> among the nations <1471> that [are] round <5439>
about thee, in the sight <5869> of all <3605> that pass <5674>
by.
15 So it shall be a reproach <2781> and a taunt <1422>, an
instruction <4148> and an astonishment <8047> unto the nations
<1471> that [are] round <5439> about thee, when I shall execute
<6213> judgments <8201> in thee in anger <0639> and in fury
<2534> and in furious <2534> rebukes <8433>. I the LORD <3068>
have spoken <1696> [it].
16 When I shall send <7971> upon them the evil <7451> arrows
<2671> of famine <7458>, which <0834> shall be for [their]
destruction <4889>, [and] which <0834> I will send <7971> to
destroy <7843> you: and I will increase <3254> the famine <7458>
upon you, and will break <7665> your staff <4294> of bread
<3899>:
17 So will I send <7971> upon you famine <7458> and evil <7451>
beasts <2416>, and they shall bereave <7921> thee; and
pestilence <1698> and blood <1818> shall pass <5674> through
thee; and I will bring <0935> the sword <2719> upon thee. I the
LORD <3068> have spoken <1696> [it].
Ezekiel 6
1. And the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me,
saying <0559>,
2 Son <1121> of man <0120>, set <7760> thy face <6440> toward
<0413> the mountains <2022> of Israel <3478>, and prophesy
<5012> against <0413> them,
3 And say <0559>, Ye mountains <2022> of Israel <3478>, hear
<8085> the word <1697> of the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Thus
<3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069> to the mountains
<2022>, and to the hills <1389>, to the rivers <0650>, and to
the valleys <1516>; Behold <2005>, I, [even] I, will bring
<0935> a sword <2719> upon you, and I will destroy <6> your high
<1116> places.
4 And your altars <4196> shall be desolate <8074>, and your
images <2553> shall be broken <7665>: and I will cast <5307>
down <5307> your slain <2491> [men] before <6440> your idols
<1544>.
5 And I will lay <5414> the dead carcases <6297> of the
children <1121> of Israel <3478> before <6440> their idols
<1544>; and I will scatter <2219> your bones <6106> round <5439>
about your altars <4196>.
6 In all <3605> your dwellingplaces <4186> the cities <5892>
shall be laid waste <2717>, and the high <1116> places shall be
desolate <3456>; that your altars <4196> may be laid waste
<2717> and made desolate <0816>, and your idols <1544> may be
broken <7665> and cease <7673>, and your images <2553> may be
cut <1438> down <1438>, and your works <4639> may be abolished
<4229>.
7 And the slain <2491> shall fall <5307> in the midst <8432> of
you, and ye shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
8. Yet will I leave <3498> a remnant <3498>, that ye may have
<1961> [some] that shall escape <6412> the sword <2719> among
the nations <1471>, when ye shall be scattered <2219> through
the countries <0776>.
9 And they that escape <6412> of you shall remember <2142> me
among the nations <1471> whither they shall be carried <7617>
captives <7617>, because <0834> I am broken <7665> with their
whorish <2181> heart <3820>, which <0834> hath departed <5493>
from me, and with their eyes <5869>, which go a whoring <2181>
after <0310> their idols <1544>: and they shall lothe <6962>
themselves <6440> for the evils <7451> which <0834> they have
committed <6213> in all <3605> their abominations <8441>.
10 And they shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>, [and
that] I have not said <1696> in vain <2600> that I would do
<6213> this <2063> evil <7451> unto them.
11. Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Smite
<5221> with thine hand <3709>, and stamp <7554> with thy foot
<7272>, and say <0559>, Alas <0253> for all <3605> the evil
<7451> abominations <8441> of the house <1004> of Israel <3478>!
for they shall fall <5307> by the sword <2719>, by the famine
<7458>, and by the pestilence <1698>.
12 He that is far <7350> off shall die <4191> of the pestilence
<1698>; and he that is near <7138> shall fall <5307> by the
sword <2719>; and he that remaineth <7604> and is besieged
<5341> shall die <4191> by the famine <7458>: thus will I
accomplish <3615> my fury <2534> upon them.
13 Then shall ye know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>, when
their slain <2491> [men] shall be among <8432> their idols
<1544> round <5439> about their altars <4196>, upon every <3605>
high <7311> hill <1389>, in all <3605> the tops <7218> of the
mountains <2022>, and under <8478> every <3605> green <7488>
tree <6086>, and under <8478> every <3605> thick <5687> oak
<0424>, the place <4725> where they did offer <5414> sweet
<5207> savour <7381> to all <3605> their idols <1544>.
14 So will I stretch <5186> out my hand <3027> upon them, and
make <5414> the land <0776> desolate <8077>, yea, more desolate
<8047> than the wilderness <4057> toward Diblath <1689>, in all
<3605> their habitations <4186>: and they shall know <3045> that
I [am] the LORD <3068>.
Ezekiel 7
1. Moreover the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto
me, saying <0559>,
2 Also, thou son <1121> of man <0120>, thus <3541> saith <0559>
the Lord <0136> GOD <3069> unto the land <0127> of Israel <3478>;
An end <7093>, the end <7093> is come <0935> upon the four
<0702> corners <3671> of the land <0776>.
3 Now <6258> [is] the end <7093> [come] upon thee, and I will
send <7971> mine anger <0639> upon thee, and will judge <8199>
thee according to thy ways <1870>, and will recompense <5414>
upon thee all <3605> thine abominations <8441>.
4 And mine eye <5869> shall not spare <2347> thee, neither
<3808> will I have pity <2550>: but I will recompense <5414> thy
ways <1870> upon thee, and thine abominations <8441> shall be in
the midst <8432> of thee: and ye shall know <3045> that I [am]
the LORD <3068>.
5 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; An evil
<7451>, an only <0259> evil <7451>, behold <2009>, is come
<0935>.
6 An end <7093> is come <0935>, the end <7093> is come <0935>:
it watcheth <6974> for thee; behold <2009>, it is come <0935>.
7 The morning <6843> is come <0935> unto thee, O thou that
dwellest <3427> in the land <0776>: the time <6256> is come
<0935>, the day <3117> of trouble <4103> [is] near <7138>, and
not the sounding <1906> again <1906> of the mountains <2022>.
8 Now <6258> will I shortly <7138> pour <8210> out my fury
<2534> upon thee, and accomplish <3615> mine anger <0639> upon
thee: and I will judge <8199> thee according to thy ways <1870>,
and will recompense <5414> thee for all <3605> thine
abominations <8441>.
9 And mine eye <5869> shall not spare <2347>, neither <3808>
will I have pity <2550>: I will recompense <5414> thee according
to thy ways <1870> and thine abominations <8441> [that] are in
the midst <8432> of thee; and ye shall know <3045> that I [am]
the LORD <3068> that smiteth <5221>.
10 Behold <2009> the day <3117>, behold <2009>, it is come
<0935>: the morning <6843> is gone <3318> forth <3318>; the rod
<4294> hath blossomed <6692>, pride <2087> hath budded <6524>.
11 Violence <2555> is risen <6965> up into a rod <4294> of
wickedness <7562>: none <3808> of them [shall remain], nor
<3808> of their multitude <1995>, nor <3808> of any <1991> of
theirs <1992>: neither <3808> [shall there be] wailing <5089>
for them.
12 The time <6256> is come <0935>, the day <3117> draweth near
<5060>: let not the buyer <7069> rejoice <8055>, nor <0408> the
seller <4376> mourn <56>: for wrath <2740> [is] upon all <3605>
the multitude <1995> thereof.
13 For the seller <4376> shall not return <7725> to that which
is sold <4465>, although they were yet <5750> alive <2416>: for
the vision <2377> [is] touching <0413> the whole <3605>
multitude <1995> thereof, [which] shall not return <7725>;
neither <3808> shall any <0376> strengthen <2388> himself in the
iniquity <5771> of his life <2416>.
14 They have blown <8628> the trumpet <8628>, even to make all
<3605> ready <3559>; but none <0369> goeth <1980> to the battle
<4421>: for my wrath <2740> [is] upon all <3605> the multitude
<1995> thereof.
15 The sword <2719> [is] without <2351>, and the pestilence
<1698> and the famine <7458> within <1004>: he that [is] in the
field <7704> shall die <4191> with the sword <2719>; and he that
[is] in the city <5892>, famine <7458> and pestilence <1698>
shall devour <0398> him.
16. But they that escape <6403> of them shall escape <6412>,
and shall be on <0413> the mountains <2022> like doves <3123> of
the valleys <1516>, all <3605> of them mourning <1993>, every
<0376> one <0376> for his iniquity <5771>.
17 All <3605> hands <3027> shall be feeble <7503>, and all
<3605> knees <1290> shall be weak <3212> [as] water <4325>.
18 They shall also gird <2296> [themselves] with sackcloth
<8242>, and horror <6427> shall cover <3680> them; and shame
<0955> [shall be] upon all <3605> faces <6440>, and baldness
<7144> upon all <3605> their heads <7218>.
19 They shall cast <7993> their silver <3701> in the streets
<2351>, and their gold <2091> shall be removed <5079>: their
silver <3701> and their gold <2091> shall not be able <3201> to
deliver <5337> them in the day <3117> of the wrath <5678> of the
LORD <3068>: they shall not satisfy <7646> their souls <5315>,
neither <3808> fill <4390> their bowels <4578>: because <3588>
it is the stumblingblock <4383> of their iniquity <5771>.
20 As for the beauty <6643> of his ornament <5716>, he set
<7760> it in majesty <1347>: but they made <6213> the images
<6754> of their abominations <8441> [and] of their detestable
<8251> things therein: therefore have I set <5414> it far <5079>
from them.
21 And I will give <5414> it into the hands <3027> of the
strangers <2114> for a prey <0957>, and to the wicked <7563> of
the earth <0776> for a spoil <7998>; and they shall pollute
<2490> it.
22 My face <6440> will I turn <5437> also from them, and they
shall pollute <2490> my secret <6845> [place]: for the robbers
<6530> shall enter <0935> into it, and defile <2490> it.
23. Make <6213> a chain <7659>: for the land <0776> is full
<4390> of bloody <1818> crimes <4941>, and the city <5892> is
full <4390> of violence <2555>.
24 Wherefore I will bring <0935> the worst <7451> of the
heathen <1471>, and they shall possess <3423> their houses
<1004>: I will also make the pomp <1347> of the strong <5794> to
cease <7673>; and their holy <6942> places shall be defiled
<2490>.
25 Destruction <7089> cometh <0935>; and they shall seek <1245>
peace <7965>, and [there shall be] none <0369>.
26 Mischief <1943> shall come <0935> upon mischief <1943>, and
rumour <8052> shall be upon rumour <8052>; then shall they seek
<1245> a vision <2377> of the prophet <5030>; but the law <8451>
shall perish <6> from the priest <3548>, and counsel <6098> from
the ancients <2204>.
27 The king <4428> shall mourn <56>, and the prince <5387>
shall be clothed <3847> with desolation <8077>, and the hands
<3027> of the people <5971> of the land <0776> shall be troubled
<0926>: I will do <6213> unto them after their way <1870>, and
according to their deserts <4941> will I judge <8199> them; and
they shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
Ezekiel 8
1. And it came <1961> to pass in the sixth <8345> year <8141>,
in the sixth <8345> [month], in the fifth <2568> [day] of the
month <2320>, [as] I sat <3427> in mine house <1004>, and the
elders <2205> of Judah <3063> sat <3427> before <6440> me, that
the hand <3027> of the Lord <0136> GOD <3069> fell <5307> there
<8033> upon me.
2 Then I beheld <7200>, and lo <2009> a likeness <1823> as the
appearance <4758> of fire <0784>: from the appearance <4758> of
his loins <4975> even downward <4295>, fire <0784>; and from his
loins <4975> even upward <4605>, as the appearance <4758> of
brightness <2096>, as the colour <5869> of amber <2830>.
3 And he put <7971> forth <7971> the form <8403> of an hand
<3027>, and took <3947> me by a lock <6734> of mine head <7218>;
and the spirit <7307> lifted <5375> me up between <0996> the
earth <0776> and the heaven <8064>, and brought <0935> me in the
visions <4759> of God <0430> to Jerusalem <3389>, to the door
<6607> of the inner <6442> gate <8179> that looketh <6437>
toward the north <6828>; where [was] the seat <4186> of the
image <5566> of jealousy <7069>, which provoketh to jealousy
<7069>.
4 And, behold <2009>, the glory <3519> of the God <0430> of
Israel <3478> [was] there <8033>, according to the vision <4758>
that I saw <7200> in the plain <1237>.
5 Then said <0559> he unto me, Son <1121> of man <0120>, lift
<5375> up thine eyes <5869> now <4994> the way <1870> toward the
north <6828>. So I lifted <5375> up mine eyes <5869> the way
<1870> toward the north <6828>, and behold <2009> northward
<6828> at the gate <8179> of the altar <4196> this <2088> image
<5566> of jealousy <7068> in the entry <0872>.
6 He said <0559> furthermore unto me, Son <1121> of man <0120>,
seest <7200> thou what <4100> they do <6213>? [even] the great
<1419> abominations <8441> that the house <1004> of Israel
<3478> committeth <6213> here <6311>, that I should go <7368>
far <7368> off from my sanctuary <4720>? but turn <7725> thee
yet <5750> again <5750>, [and] thou shalt see <7200> greater
<1419> abominations <8441>.
7. And he brought <0935> me to the door <6607> of the court
<2691>; and when I looked <7200>, behold <2009> a hole <2356> in
the wall <7023>.
8 Then said <0559> he unto me, Son <1121> of man <0120>, dig
<2864> now <4994> in the wall <7023>: and when I had digged
<2864> in the wall <7023>, behold <2009> a door <6607>.
9 And he said <0559> unto me, Go <0935> in, and behold <7200>
the wicked <7451> abominations <8441> that they do <6213> here
<6311>.
10 So I went <0935> in and saw <7200>; and behold <2009> every
<3605> form <8403> of creeping <7431> things, and abominable
<8263> beasts <0929>, and all <3605> the idols <1544> of the
house <1004> of Israel <3478>, pourtrayed <2707> upon the wall
<7023> round <5439> about.
11 And there stood <5975> before <6440> them seventy <7657> men
<0376> of the ancients <2204> of the house <1004> of Israel
<3478>, and in the midst <8432> of them stood <5975> Jaazaniah
<2970> the son <1121> of Shaphan <8227>, with every man <0376>
his censer <4730> in his hand <3027>; and a thick <6282> cloud
<6051> of incense <7004> went <5927> up.
12 Then said <0559> he unto me, Son <1121> of man <0120>, hast
thou seen <7200> what <0834> the ancients <2204> of the house
<1004> of Israel <3478> do <6213> in the dark <2822>, every man
<0376> in the chambers <2315> of his imagery <4906>? for they
say <0559>, The LORD <3068> seeth <7200> us not; the LORD <3068>
hath forsaken <5800> the earth <0776>.
13. He said <0559> also unto me, Turn <7725> thee yet <5750>
again <5750>, [and] thou shalt see <7200> greater <1419>
abominations <8441> that they do <6213>.
14 Then he brought <0935> me to the door <6607> of the gate
<8179> of the LORD'S <3068> house <1004> which <0834> [was]
toward <5921> the north <6828>; and, behold <2009>, there <8033>
sat <3427> women <0802> weeping <1058> for Tammuz <8542>.
15 Then said <0559> he unto me, Hast thou seen <7200> [this], O
son <1121> of man <0120>? turn <7725> thee yet <5750> again
<5750>, [and] thou shalt see <7200> greater <1419> abominations
<8441> than these <0428>.
16 And he brought <0935> me into <0413> the inner <6442> court
<2691> of the LORD'S <3068> house <1004>, and, behold <2009>, at
the door <6607> of the temple <1964> of the LORD <3068>, between
<0996> the porch <0197> and the altar <4196>, [were] about five
<2568> and twenty <6242> men <0376>, with their backs <0268>
toward <0413> the temple <1964> of the LORD <3068>, and their
faces <6440> toward the east <6924>; and they worshipped <7812>
the sun <8121> toward the east <6924>.
17 Then he said <0559> unto me, Hast thou seen <7200> [this], O
son <1121> of man <0120>? Is it a light <7043> thing to the
house <1004> of Judah <3063> that they commit <6213> the
abominations <8441> which <0834> they commit <6213> here <6311>?
for they have filled <4390> the land <0776> with violence <2555>,
and have returned <7725> to provoke me to anger <3707>: and, lo
<2009>, they put <7971> the branch <2156> to their nose <0639>.
18 Therefore will I also <1571> deal <6213> in fury <2534>:
mine eye <5869> shall not spare <2347>, neither <3808> will I
have pity <2550>: and though they cry <7121> in mine ears <0241>
with a loud <1419> voice <6963>, [yet] will I not hear <8085>
them.
Ezekiel 9
1. He cried <7121> also in mine ears <0241> with a loud <1419>
voice <6963>, saying <0559>, Cause them that have charge <6486>
over the city <5892> to draw near <7126>, even every man <0376>
[with] his destroying <4892> weapon <3627> in his hand <3027>.
2 And, behold <2009>, six <8337> men <0582> came <0935> from
the way <1870> of the higher <5945> gate <8179>, which <0834>
lieth toward the north <6828>, and every man <0376> a slaughter
<4660> weapon <3627> in his hand <3027>; and one <0259> man
<0376> among <8432> them [was] clothed <3847> with linen <0906>,
with a writer's <5608> inkhorn <7083> by his side <4975>: and
they went <0935> in, and stood <5975> beside <0681> the brasen
<5178> altar <4196>.
3 And the glory <3519> of the God <0430> of Israel <3478> was
gone <5927> up from the cherub <3742>, whereupon he was, to the
threshold <4670> of the house <1004>. And he called <7121> to
the man <0376> clothed <3847> with linen <0906>, which <0834>
[had] the writer's <5608> inkhorn <7083> by his side <4975>;
4 And the LORD <3068> said <0559> unto him, Go <5674> through
<5674> the midst <8432> of the city <5892>, through the midst
<8432> of Jerusalem <3389>, and set <8427> a mark <8420> upon
the foreheads <4696> of the men <0582> that sigh <0584> and that
cry <0602> for all <3605> the abominations <8441> that be done
<6213> in the midst <8432> thereof.
5. And to the others <0428> he said <0559> in mine hearing
<0241>, Go <5674> ye after <0310> him through the city <5892>,
and smite <5221>: let not your eye <5869> spare <2347>, neither
<0408> have ye pity <2550>:
6 Slay <2026> utterly old <2205> [and] young <0970>, both maids
<1330>, and little <2945> children <2945>, and women <0802>: but
come <5066> not near <5066> any <3605> man <0376> upon whom
<0834> [is] the mark <8420>; and begin <2490> at my sanctuary
<4720>. Then they began <2490> at the ancient <2204> men <0582>
which <0834> [were] before <6440> the house <1004>.
7 And he said <0559> unto them, Defile <2930> the house <1004>,
and fill <4390> the courts <2691> with the slain <2491>: go
<3318> ye forth <3318>. And they went <3318> forth <3318>, and
slew <5221> in the city <5892>.
8 And it came <1961> to pass, while they were slaying <5221>
them, and I was left <7604>, that I fell <5307> upon my face
<6440>, and cried <2199>, and said <0559>, Ah <0162> Lord <0136>
GOD <3069>! wilt thou destroy <7843> all <3605> the residue
<7611> of Israel <3478> in thy pouring <8210> out of thy fury
<2534> upon Jerusalem <3389>?
9 Then said <0559> he unto me, The iniquity <5771> of the house
<1004> of Israel <3478> and Judah <3063> [is] exceeding <3966>
great <1419>, and the land <0776> is full <4390> of blood <1818>,
and the city <5892> full <4390> of perverseness <4297>: for
they say <0559>, The LORD <3068> hath forsaken <5800> the earth
<0776>, and the LORD <3068> seeth <7200> not.
10 And as for me also <1571>, mine eye <5869> shall not spare
<2347>, neither <3808> will I have pity <2550>, [but] I will
recompense <5414> their way <1870> upon their head <7218>.
11 And, behold <2009>, the man <0376> clothed <3847> with linen
<0906>, which <0834> [had] the inkhorn <7083> by his side <4975>,
reported <7725> the matter <1697>, saying <0559>, I have done
<6213> as thou hast commanded <6680> me.
Ezekiel 10
1. Then I looked <7200>, and, behold <2009>, in the firmament
<7549> that was above <5921> the head <7218> of the cherubims
<3742> there appeared <7200> over <5921> them as it were a
sapphire <5601> stone <68>, as the appearance <4758> of the
likeness <1823> of a throne <3678>.
2 And he spake <0559> unto the man <0376> clothed <3847> with
linen <0906>, and said <0559>, Go <0935> in between <0996> the
wheels <1534>, [even] under the cherub <3742>, and fill <4390>
thine hand <2651> with coals <1513> of fire <0784> from between
<0996> the cherubims <3742>, and scatter <2236> [them] over
<5921> the city <5892>. And he went <0935> in in my sight <5869>.
3 Now the cherubims <3742> stood <5975> on <5921> the right
<3225> side <3225> of the house <1004>, when the man <0376> went
<0935> in; and the cloud <6051> filled <4390> the inner <6442>
court <2691>.
4 Then the glory <3519> of the LORD <3068> went <7311> up from
the cherub <3742>, [and stood] over <5921> the threshold <4670>
of the house <1004>; and the house <1004> was filled <4390> with
the cloud <6051>, and the court <2691> was full <4390> of the
brightness <5051> of the LORD'S <3068> glory <3519>.
5 And the sound <6963> of the cherubims <3742>' wings <3671>
was heard <8085> [even] to the outer <2435> court <2691>, as the
voice <6963> of the Almighty <7706> God <0410> when he speaketh
<1696>.
6 And it came <1961> to pass, [that] when he had commanded
<6680> the man <0376> clothed <3847> with linen <0906>, saying
<0559>, Take <3947> fire <0784> from between <0996> the wheels
<1534>, from between <0996> the cherubims <3742>; then he went
<0935> in, and stood <5975> beside <0681> the wheels <0212>.
7 And [one] cherub <3742> stretched <7971> forth his hand
<3027> from between <0996> the cherubims <3742> unto the fire
<0784> that [was] between <0996> the cherubims <3742>, and took
<5375> [thereof], and put <5414> [it] into <0413> the hands
<2651> of [him that was] clothed <3847> with linen <0906>: who
took <3947> [it], and went <3318> out.
8. And there appeared <7200> in the cherubims <3742> the form
<8403> of a man's <0120> hand <3027> under <8478> their wings
<3671>.
9 And when I looked <7200>, behold <2009> the four <0702>
wheels <0212> by the cherubims <3742>, one <0259> wheel <0212>
by one <0259> cherub <3742>, and another <0259> wheel <0212> by
another <0259> cherub <3742>: and the appearance <4758> of the
wheels <0212> [was] as the colour <5869> of a beryl <8658> stone
<68>.
10 And [as for] their appearances <4758>, they four <0702> had
<1961> one <0259> likeness <1823>, as if <0834> a wheel <0212>
had been <1961> in the midst <8432> of a wheel <0212>.
11 When they went <3212>, they went <3212> upon their four
<0702> sides <7253>; they turned <5437> not as they went <3212>,
but to the place <4725> whither <0834> the head <7218> looked
<6437> they followed it; they turned <5437> not as they went
<3212>.
12 And their whole <3605> body <1320>, and their backs <1354>,
and their hands <3027>, and their wings <3671>, and the wheels
<0212>, [were] full <4392> of eyes <5869> round <5439> about,
[even] the wheels <0212> that they four <0702> had.
13 As for the wheels <0212>, it was cried <7121> unto them in
my hearing <0241>, O wheel <1534>.
14 And every one <0259> had four <0702> faces <6440>: the first
<0259> face <6440> [was] the face <6440> of a cherub <3742>, and
the second <8145> face <6440> [was] the face <6440> of a man
<0120>, and the third <7992> the face <6440> of a lion <0738>,
and the fourth <7243> the face <6440> of an eagle <5404>.
15 And the cherubims <3742> were lifted <7426> up. This <1931>
[is] the living <2416> creature <2416> that I saw <7200> by the
river <5104> of Chebar <3529>.
16 And when the cherubims <3742> went <3212>, the wheels <0212>
went <3212> by them: and when the cherubims <3742> lifted <5375>
up their wings <3671> to mount <7311> up from the earth <0776>,
the same <1992> wheels <0212> also <1571> turned <5437> not from
beside <0681> them.
17 When they stood <5975>, [these] stood <5975>; and when they
were lifted <7311> up, [these] lifted <7426> up themselves
[also]: for the spirit <7307> of the living <2416> creature
<2416> [was] in them.
18 Then the glory <3519> of the LORD <3068> departed <3318>
from off <5921> the threshold <4670> of the house <1004>, and
stood <5975> over <5921> the cherubims <3742>.
19 And the cherubims <3742> lifted <5375> up their wings <3671>,
and mounted <7426> up from the earth <0776> in my sight <5869>:
when they went <3318> out, the wheels <0212> also [were] beside
<5980> them, and [every one] stood <5975> at the door <6607> of
the east <6931> gate <8179> of the LORD'S <3068> house <1004>;
and the glory <3519> of the God <0430> of Israel <3478> [was]
over <5921> them above <4605>.
20 This <1931> [is] the living <2416> creature <2416> that I
saw <7200> under <8478> the God <0430> of Israel <3478> by the
river <5104> of Chebar <3529>; and I knew <3045> that they
[were] the cherubims <3742>.
21 Every one <0259> had four <0702> faces <6440> apiece <0259>,
and every one <0259> four <0702> wings <3671>; and the likeness
<1823> of the hands <3027> of a man <0120> [was] under <8478>
their wings <3671>.
22 And the likeness <1823> of their faces <6440> [was] the same
<1992> faces <6440> which <0834> I saw <7200> by the river
<5104> of Chebar <3529>, their appearances <4758> and themselves
<6440>: they went <3212> every <0376> one <0376> straight <5676>
forward <6440>.
Ezekiel 11
1. Moreover the spirit <7307> lifted <5375> me up, and brought
<0935> me unto the east <6931> gate <8179> of the LORD'S <3068>
house <1004>, which looketh <6437> eastward <6921>: and behold
<2009> at the door <6607> of the gate <8179> five <2568> and
twenty <6242> men <0376>; among <8432> whom I saw <7200>
Jaazaniah <2970> the son <1121> of Azur <5809>, and Pelatiah
<6410> the son <1121> of Benaiah <1141>, princes <8269> of the
people <5971>.
2 Then said <0559> he unto me, Son <1121> of man <0120>, these
<0428> [are] the men <0582> that devise <2803> mischief <0205>,
and give wicked <7451> counsel <6098> in this <2063> city <5892>:
3 Which say <0559>, [It is] not near <7138>; let us build
<1129> houses <1004>: this <1931> [city is] the caldron <5518>,
and we [be] the flesh <1320>.
4 Therefore <3651> prophesy <5012> against <5921> them,
prophesy <5012>, O son <1121> of man <0120>.
5 And the Spirit <7307> of the LORD <3068> fell <5307> upon me,
and said <0559> unto me, Speak <0559>; Thus <3541> saith <0559>
the LORD <3068>; Thus <3651> have ye said <0559>, O house <1004>
of Israel <3478>: for I know <3045> the things that come <4609>
into your mind <7307>, [every one of] them.
6 Ye have multiplied <7235> your slain <2491> in this <2063>
city <5892>, and ye have filled <4390> the streets <2351>
thereof with the slain <2491>.
7 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>; Your slain <2491> whom <0834> ye have laid <7760> in the
midst <8432> of it, they [are] the flesh <1320>, and this <1931>
[city is] the caldron <5518>: but I will bring <3318> you forth
<3318> out of the midst <8432> of it.
8 Ye have feared <3372> the sword <2719>; and I will bring
<0935> a sword <2719> upon you, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>.
9 And I will bring <3318> you out of the midst <8432> thereof,
and deliver <5414> you into the hands <3027> of strangers <2114>,
and will execute <6213> judgments <8201> among you.
10 Ye shall fall <5307> by the sword <2719>; I will judge
<8199> you in the border <1366> of Israel <3478>; and ye shall
know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
11 This <1931> [city] shall not be your caldron <5518>, neither
shall ye be the flesh <1320> in the midst <8432> thereof; [but]
I will judge <8199> you in the border <1366> of Israel <3478>:
12 And ye shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>: for ye
have not walked <1980> in my statutes <2706>, neither <3808>
executed <6213> my judgments <4941>, but have done <6213> after
the manners <4941> of the heathen <1471> that [are] round <5439>
about you.
13 And it came <1961> to pass, when I prophesied <5012>, that
Pelatiah <6410> the son <1121> of Benaiah <1141> died <4191>.
Then fell <5307> I down upon my face <6440>, and cried <2199>
with a loud <1419> voice <6963>, and said <0559>, Ah <0162> Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>! wilt thou make <6213> a full end <3615> of
the remnant <7611> of Israel <3478>?
14. Again the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto
me, saying <0559>,
15 Son <1121> of man <0120>, thy brethren <0251>, [even] thy
brethren <0251>, the men <0582> of thy kindred <1353>, and all
<3605> the house <1004> of Israel <3478> wholly <3605>, [are]
they unto whom <0834> the inhabitants <3427> of Jerusalem <3389>
have said <0559>, Get you far <7368> from the LORD <3068>: unto
us is this <1931> land <0776> given <5414> in possession <4181>.
16 Therefore <3651> say <0559>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the
Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Although <3588> I have cast <7368> them
far <7368> off among the heathen <1471>, and although <0272> I
have scattered <6327> them among the countries <0776>, yet will
I be to them as a little <4592> sanctuary <4720> in the
countries <0776> where they shall come <0935>.
17 Therefore <3651> say <0559>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the
Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; I will even gather <6908> you from the
people <5971>, and assemble <0622> you out of the countries
<0776> where <0834> ye have been scattered <6327>, and I will
give <5414> you the land <0127> of Israel <3478>.
18 And they shall come <0935> thither <8033>, and they shall
take <5493> away <5493> all <3605> the detestable <8251> things
thereof and all <3605> the abominations <8441> thereof from
thence.
19 And I will give <5414> them one <0259> heart <3820>, and I
will put <5414> a new <2319> spirit <7307> within <7130> you;
and I will take <5493> the stony <68> heart <3820> out of their
flesh <1320>, and will give <5414> them an heart <3820> of flesh
<1320>:
20 That they may walk <3212> in my statutes <2708>, and keep
<8104> mine ordinances <4941>, and do <6213> them: and they
shall be my people <5971>, and I will be their God <0430>.
21 But [as for them] whose heart <3820> walketh <1980> after
the heart <3820> of their detestable <8251> things and their
abominations <8441>, I will recompense <5414> their way <1870>
upon their own heads <7218>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>.
22. Then did the cherubims <3742> lift <5375> up their wings
<3671>, and the wheels <0212> beside <5980> them; and the glory
<3519> of the God <0430> of Israel <3478> [was] over <5921> them
above <4605>.
23 And the glory <3519> of the LORD <3068> went <5927> up from
the midst <8432> of the city <5892>, and stood <5975> upon the
mountain <2022> which <0834> [is] on the east <6924> side <6954>
of the city <5892>.
24 Afterwards the spirit <7307> took <5375> me up, and brought
<0935> me in a vision <4758> by the Spirit <7307> of God <0430>
into Chaldea <3778>, to them of the captivity <1473>. So the
vision <4758> that I had seen <7200> went <5927> up from me.
25 Then I spake <1696> unto them of the captivity <1473> all
<3605> the things <1697> that the LORD <3068> had shewed <7200>
me.
Ezekiel 12
1. The word <1697> of the LORD <3068> also came <1961> unto me,
saying <0559>,
2 Son <1121> of man <0120>, thou dwellest <3427> in the midst
<8432> of a rebellious <4805> house <1004>, which <0834> have
eyes <5869> to see <7200>, and see <7200> not; they have ears
<0241> to hear <8085>, and hear <8085> not: for they [are] a
rebellious <4805> house <1004>.
3 Therefore, thou son <1121> of man <0120>, prepare <6213> thee
stuff <3627> for removing <1473>, and remove <1540> by day
<3119> in their sight <5869>; and thou shalt remove <1540> from
thy place <4725> to another <0312> place <4725> in their sight
<5869>: it may be they will consider <7200>, though <3518> they
[be] a rebellious <4805> house <1004>.
4 Then shalt thou bring <3318> forth <3318> thy stuff <3627> by
day <3119> in their sight <5869>, as stuff <3627> for removing
<1473>: and thou shalt go <3318> forth <3318> at even <6153> in
their sight <5869>, as they that go <4161> forth <4161> into
captivity <1473>.
5 Dig <2864> thou through the wall <7023> in their sight <5869>,
and carry <3318> out thereby.
6 In their sight <5869> shalt thou bear <5375> [it] upon [thy]
shoulders <3802>, [and] carry <3318> [it] forth <3318> in the
twilight <5939>: thou shalt cover <3680> thy face <6440>, that
thou see <7200> not the ground <0776>: for I have set <5414>
thee [for] a sign <4159> unto the house <1004> of Israel <3478>.
7 And I did <6213> so <3651> as I was commanded <6680>: I
brought <3318> forth <3318> my stuff <3627> by day <3119>, as
stuff <3627> for captivity <1473>, and in the even <6153> I
digged <2864> through the wall <7023> with mine hand <3027>; I
brought <3318> [it] forth <3318> in the twilight <5939>, [and] I
bare <5375> [it] upon [my] shoulder <3802> in their sight <5869>.
8 And in the morning <1242> came <1961> the word <1697> of the
LORD <3068> unto me, saying <0559>,
9 Son <1121> of man <0120>, hath not the house <1004> of Israel
<3478>, the rebellious <4805> house <1004>, said <0559> unto
thee, What <4100> doest <6213> thou?
10 Say <0559> thou unto them, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>; This <2088> burden <4853> [concerneth] the
prince <5387> in Jerusalem <3389>, and all <3605> the house
<1004> of Israel <3478> that [are] among <8432> them.
11 Say <0559>, I [am] your sign <4159>: like as I have done
<6213>, so <3651> shall it be done <6213> unto them: they shall
remove <5493> [and] go <3212> into captivity <7628>.
12 And the prince <5387> that [is] among <8432> them shall bear
<5375> upon [his] shoulder <3802> in the twilight <5939>, and
shall go <3318> forth <3318>: they shall dig <2864> through the
wall <7023> to carry <3318> out thereby: he shall cover <3680>
his face <6440>, that he see <7200> not the ground <0776> with
[his] eyes <5869>.
13 My net <7568> also will I spread <6566> upon him, and he
shall be taken <8610> in my snare <4686>: and I will bring
<0935> him to Babylon <0894> [to] the land <0776> of the
Chaldeans <3779>; yet shall he not see <7200> it, though he
shall die <4191> there <8033>.
14 And I will scatter <2219> toward every <3605> wind <7307>
all <3605> that [are] about <5439> him to help <5828> him, and
all <3605> his bands <0102>; and I will draw <7324> out the
sword <2719> after <0310> them.
15 And they shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>, when
I shall scatter <6327> them among the nations <1471>, and
disperse <2219> them in the countries <0776>.
16 But I will leave <3498> a few <4557> men <0582> of them from
the sword <2719>, from the famine <7458>, and from the
pestilence <1698>; that they may declare <5608> all <3605> their
abominations <8441> among the heathen <1471> whither they come
<0935>; and they shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
17. Moreover the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> to
me, saying <0559>,
18 Son <1121> of man <0120>, eat <0398> thy bread <3899> with
quaking <7494>, and drink <8354> thy water <4325> with trembling
<7269> and with carefulness <1674>;
19 And say <0559> unto the people <5971> of the land <0127>,
Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069> of the
inhabitants <3427> of Jerusalem <3389>, [and] of the land <0776>
of Israel <3478>; They shall eat <0398> their bread <3899> with
carefulness <1674>, and drink <8354> their water <4325> with
astonishment <8078>, that her land <0776> may be desolate <3456>
from all <4393> that is therein <4393>, because of the violence
<2555> of all <3605> them that dwell <3427> therein.
20 And the cities <5892> that are inhabited <3427> shall be
laid waste <2717>, and the land <0776> shall be desolate <8077>;
and ye shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
21. And the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me,
saying <0559>,
22 Son <1121> of man <0120>, what <4100> [is] that proverb
<4912> [that] ye have in the land <0127> of Israel <3478>,
saying <0559>, The days <3117> are prolonged <0748>, and every
<3605> vision <2377> faileth <6>?
23 Tell <0559> them therefore <3651>, Thus <3541> saith <0559>
the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; I will make this <2088> proverb
<4912> to cease <7673>, and they shall no <3808> more <5750> use
<4912> it as a proverb <4911> in Israel <3478>; but say <1696>
unto them, The days <3117> are at <7196> hand <7126>, and the
effect <1697> of every <3605> vision <2377>.
24 For there shall be no <3808> more <5750> any vain <7723>
vision <2377> nor flattering <2509> divination <4738> within
<8432> the house <1004> of Israel <3478>.
25 For I [am] the LORD <3068>: I will speak <1696>, and the
word <1697> that I shall speak <1696> shall come <6213> to pass
<6213>; it shall be no <3808> more <5750> prolonged <4900>: for
in your days <3117>, O rebellious <4805> house <1004>, will I
say <1696> the word <1697>, and will perform <6213> it, saith
<5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
26 Again the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> to me,
saying <0559>,
27 Son <1121> of man <0120>, behold <2009>, [they of] the house
<1004> of Israel <3478> say <0559>, The vision <2377> that he
seeth <2372> [is] for many <7227> days <3117> [to come], and he
prophesieth <5012> of the times <6256> [that are] far <7350> off.
28 Therefore <3651> say <0559> unto them, Thus <3541> saith
<0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; There shall none <3808> of my
words <1697> be prolonged <4900> any <3605> more <5750>, but the
word <1697> which <0834> I have spoken <1696> shall be done
<6213>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
Ezekiel 13
1. And the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me,
saying <0559>,
2 Son <1121> of man <0120>, prophesy <5012> against <0413> the
prophets <5030> of Israel <3478> that prophesy <5012>, and say
<0559> thou unto them that prophesy <5012> out of their own
hearts <3820>, Hear <8085> ye the word <1697> of the LORD <3068>;
3 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Woe
<1945> unto the foolish <5036> prophets <5030>, that follow
their own spirit <7307>, and have seen <7200> nothing <1115>!
4 O Israel <3478>, thy prophets <5030> are like the foxes
<7776> in the deserts <2723>.
5 Ye have not gone <5927> up into the gaps <6556>, neither made
<1443> up the hedge <1447> for the house <1004> of Israel <3478>
to stand <5975> in the battle <4421> in the day <3117> of the
LORD <3068>.
6 They have seen <2372> vanity <7723> and lying <3577>
divination <7081>, saying <0559>, The LORD <3068> saith <5002>:
and the LORD <3068> hath not sent <7971> them: and they have
made [others] to hope <3176> that they would confirm <6965> the
word <1697>.
7 Have ye not seen <2372> a vain <7723> vision <4236>, and have
ye not spoken <1696> a lying <3577> divination <4738>, whereas
ye say <0559>, The LORD <3068> saith <5002> [it]; albeit I have
not spoken <0559>?
8 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>; Because <3282> ye have spoken <1696> vanity <7723>, and
seen <2372> lies <3576>, therefore <3651>, behold <2005>, I [am]
against <0413> you, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
9 And mine hand <3027> shall be upon the prophets <5030> that
see <2374> vanity <7723>, and that divine <7080> lies <3576>:
they shall not be in the assembly <5475> of my people <5971>,
neither <3808> shall they be written <3789> in the writing
<3791> of the house <1004> of Israel <3478>, neither <3808>
shall they enter <0935> into the land <0127> of Israel <3478>;
and ye shall know <3045> that I [am] the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
10. Because <3282>, even because <3282> they have seduced
<2937> my people <5971>, saying <0559>, Peace <7965>; and [there
was] no <0369> peace <7965>; and one built <1129> up a wall
<2434>, and, lo <2009>, others daubed <2902> it with untempered
<8602> [morter]:
11 Say <0559> unto them which daub <2902> [it] with untempered
<8602> [morter], that it shall fall <5307>: there shall be an
overflowing <7857> shower <1653>; and ye, O great <0417>
hailstones, shall fall <5307>; and a stormy <5591> wind <7307>
shall rend <1234> [it].
12 Lo <2009>, when the wall <7023> is fallen <5307>, shall it
not be said <0559> unto you, Where <0346> [is] the daubing
<2915> wherewith <0834> ye have daubed <2902> [it]?
13 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136>
GOD <3069>; I will even rend <1234> [it] with a stormy <5591>
wind <7307> in my fury <2534>; and there shall be an overflowing
<7857> shower <1653> in mine anger <0639>, and great <0417>
hailstones in [my] fury <2534> to consume <3615> [it].
14 So will I break <2040> down <2040> the wall <7023> that ye
have daubed <2902> with untempered <8602> [morter], and bring
<5060> it down to the ground <0776>, so that the foundation
<3247> thereof shall be discovered <1540>, and it shall fall
<5307>, and ye shall be consumed <3615> in the midst <8432>
thereof: and ye shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
15 Thus will I accomplish <3615> my wrath <2534> upon the wall
<7023>, and upon them that have daubed <2902> it with untempered
<8602> [morter], and will say <0559> unto you, The wall <7023>
[is] no <0369> [more], neither <0369> they that daubed <2902> it;
16 [To wit], the prophets <5030> of Israel <3478> which
prophesy <5012> concerning <0413> Jerusalem <3389>, and which
see <2374> visions <2377> of peace <7965> for her, and [there
is] no <0369> peace <7965>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>.
17. Likewise, thou son <1121> of man <0120>, set <7760> thy
face <6440> against <0413> the daughters <1121> of thy people
<5971>, which prophesy <5012> out of their own heart <3820>; and
prophesy <5012> thou against <5921> them,
18 And say <0559>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>; Woe <1945> to the [women] that sew <8609> pillows <3704>
to all <3605> armholes, and make <6213> kerchiefs <4556> upon
the head <7218> of every <3605> stature <6967> to hunt <6679>
souls <5315>! Will ye hunt <6679> the souls <5315> of my people
<5971>, and will ye save <2421> the souls <5315> alive <2421>
[that come] unto you?
19 And will ye pollute <2490> me among <0413> my people <5971>
for handfuls <8168> of barley <8184> and for pieces <6595> of
bread <3899>, to slay <4191> the souls <5315> that should not
die <4191>, and to save <2421> the souls <5315> alive <2421>
that should not live <2421>, by your lying <3576> to my people
<5971> that hear <8085> [your] lies <3576>?
20 Wherefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136>
GOD <3069>; Behold <2005>, I [am] against <0413> your pillows
<3704>, wherewith <0834> ye there <8033> hunt <6679> the souls
<5315> to make [them] fly <6524>, and I will tear <7167> them
from your arms <2220>, and will let the souls <5315> go <7971>,
[even] the souls <5315> that ye hunt <6679> to make [them] fly
<6524>.
21 Your kerchiefs <4556> also will I tear <7167>, and deliver
<5337> my people <5971> out of your hand <3027>, and they shall
be no <3808> more <5750> in your hand <3027> to be hunted <4686>;
and ye shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
22 Because <3282> with lies <3576> ye have made the heart
<3820> of the righteous <6662> sad <3512>, whom I have not made
sad <3510>; and strengthened <2388> the hands <3027> of the
wicked <7451>, that he should not return <7725> from his wicked
<7563> way <1870>, by promising <2421> him life <2421>:
23 Therefore <3651> ye shall see <2372> no <3808> more <5750>
vanity <7723>, nor <3808> divine <7181> divinations <7081>: for
I will deliver <5337> my people <5971> out of your hand <3027>:
and ye shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
Ezekiel 14
1. Then came <0935> certain <0582> of the elders <2205> of
Israel <3478> unto me, and sat <3427> before <6440> me.
2 And the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me,
saying <0559>,
3 Son <1121> of man <0120>, these <0428> men <0582> have set
<5927> up their idols <1544> in their heart <3820>, and put
<5414> the stumblingblock <4383> of their iniquity <5771> before
<5227> their face <6440>: should I be enquired <1875> of at all
by them?
4 Therefore <3651> speak <1696> unto them, and say <0559> unto
them, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Every
man <0376> of the house <1004> of Israel <3478> that setteth
<5927> up his idols <1544> in his heart <3820>, and putteth
<7760> the stumblingblock <4383> of his iniquity <5771> before
<5227> his face <6440>, and cometh <0935> to the prophet <5030>;
I the LORD <3068> will answer <6030> him that cometh <0935>
according to the multitude <7230> of his idols <1544>;
5 That I may take <8610> the house <1004> of Israel <3478> in
their own heart <3820>, because <0834> they are all <3605>
estranged <2114> from me through their idols <1544>.
6 Therefore <3651> say <0559> unto the house <1004> of Israel
<3478>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>;
Repent <7725>, and turn <7725> [yourselves] from your idols
<1544>; and turn <7725> away your faces <6440> from all <3605>
your abominations <8441>.
7 For every <0376> one <0376> of the house <1004> of Israel
<3478>, or of the stranger <1616> that sojourneth <1481> in
Israel <3478>, which separateth <5144> himself from me, and
setteth <5927> up his idols <1544> in his heart <3820>, and
putteth <7760> the stumblingblock <4383> of his iniquity <5771>
before <5227> his face <6440>, and cometh <0935> to a prophet
<5030> to enquire <1875> of him concerning me; I the LORD <3068>
will answer <6030> him by myself:
8 And I will set <5414> my face <6440> against that man <0376>,
and will make <8074> him a sign <0226> and a proverb <4912>, and
I will cut <3772> him off from the midst <8432> of my people
<5971>; and ye shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
9 And if <3588> the prophet <5030> be deceived <6601> when
<3588> he hath spoken <1696> a thing <1697>, I the LORD <3068>
have deceived <6601> that prophet <5030>, and I will stretch
<5186> out my hand <3027> upon him, and will destroy <8045> him
from the midst <8432> of my people <5971> Israel <3478>.
10 And they shall bear <5375> the punishment <5771> of their
iniquity <5771>: the punishment <5771> of the prophet <5030>
shall be even as the punishment <5771> of him that seeketh
<1875> [unto him];
11 That the house <1004> of Israel <3478> may go <8582> no
<3808> more <5750> astray <8582> from me, neither <3808> be
polluted <2930> any <3605> more <5750> with all <3605> their
transgressions <6588>; but that they may be my people <5971>,
and I may be their God <0430>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>.
12. The word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> again to me,
saying <0559>,
13 Son <1121> of man <0120>, when <3588> the land <0776>
sinneth <2398> against me by trespassing <4603> grievously
<4604>, then will I stretch <5186> out mine hand <3027> upon it,
and will break <7665> the staff <4294> of the bread <3899>
thereof, and will send <7971> famine <7458> upon it, and will
cut <3772> off man <0120> and beast <0929> from it:
14 Though these <0428> three <7969> men <0582>, Noah <5146>,
Daniel <1840>, and Job <0347>, were in it, they should deliver
<5337> [but] their own souls <5315> by their righteousness
<6666>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
15 If <3863> I cause noisome <7451> beasts <2416> to pass
<5674> through the land <0776>, and they spoil <7921> it, so
that it be desolate <8077>, that no <1097> man may pass <5674>
through because <6440> of the beasts <2416>:
16 [Though] these <0428> three <7969> men <0582> [were] in it,
[as] I live <2416>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>,
they shall deliver <5337> neither <0518> sons <1121> nor <0508>
daughters <1121>; they only <0905> shall be delivered <5337>,
but the land <0776> shall be desolate <8077>.
17 Or <0176> [if] I bring <0935> a sword <2719> upon that land
<0776>, and say <0559>, Sword <2719>, go <5674> through the land
<0776>; so that I cut <3772> off man <0120> and beast <0929>
from it:
18 Though these <0428> three <7969> men <0582> [were] in it,
[as] I live <2416>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>,
they shall deliver <5337> neither <3808> sons <1121> nor
daughters <1121>, but they only <0905> shall be delivered <5337>
themselves.
19 Or <0176> [if] I send <7971> a pestilence <1698> into <0413>
that land <0776>, and pour <8210> out my fury <2534> upon it in
blood <1818>, to cut <3772> off from it man <0120> and beast
<0929>:
20 Though Noah <5146>, Daniel <1840>, and Job <0347>, [were] in
it, [as] I live <2416>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>,
they shall deliver <5337> neither <0518> son <1121> nor <0518>
daughter <1323>; they shall [but] deliver <5337> their own souls
<5315> by their righteousness <6666>.
21 For thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; How
<0637> much <0637> more <5750> when <3588> I send <7971> my four
<0702> sore <7451> judgments <8201> upon Jerusalem <3389>, the
sword <2719>, and the famine <7458>, and the noisome <7451>
beast <2416>, and the pestilence <1698>, to cut <3772> off from
it man <0120> and beast <0929>?
22 Yet, behold <2009>, therein shall be left <3498> a remnant
<6413> that shall be brought <3318> forth <4163>, [both] sons
<1121> and daughters <1121>: behold <2009>, they shall come
<3318> forth <3318> unto you, and ye shall see <7200> their way
<1870> and their doings <5949>: and ye shall be comforted <5162>
concerning <5921> the evil <7451> that I have brought <0935>
upon Jerusalem <3389>, [even] concerning <0854> all <3605> that
I have brought <0935> upon it.
23 And they shall comfort <5162> you, when ye see <7200> their
ways <1870> and their doings <5949>: and ye shall know <3045>
that I have not done <6213> without <2600> cause <2600> all
<3605> that I have done <6213> in it, saith <5002> the Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>.
Ezekiel 15
1. And the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me,
saying <0559>,
2 Son <1121> of man <0120>, What <4100> is the vine <1612> tree
<6086> more than any tree <6086>, [or than] a branch <2156>
which <0834> is among the trees <6086> of the forest <3293>?
3 Shall wood <6086> be taken <3947> thereof to do <6213> any
work <4399>? or will [men] take <3947> a pin <3489> of it to
hang <8518> any <3605> vessel <3627> thereon <5921>?
4 Behold <2009>, it is cast <5414> into the fire <0784> for
fuel <0402>; the fire <0784> devoureth <0398> both <8147> the
ends <7098> of it, and the midst <8432> of it is burned <2787>.
Is it meet <6743> for [any] work <4399>?
5 Behold <2009>, when it was whole <8549>, it was meet <6213>
for no <3808> work <4399>: how <0637> much <7227> less shall it
be meet <6213> yet for [any] work <4399>, when <3588> the fire
<0784> hath devoured <0398> it, and it is burned <2787>?
6 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>; As the vine <1612> tree <6086> among the trees <6086> of
the forest <3293>, which <0834> I have given <5414> to the fire
<0784> for fuel <0402>, so <3651> will I give <5414> the
inhabitants <3427> of Jerusalem <3389>.
7 And I will set <5414> my face <6440> against them; they shall
go <3318> out from [one] fire <0784>, and [another] fire <0784>
shall devour <0398> them; and ye shall know <3045> that I [am]
the LORD <3068>, when I set <7760> my face <6440> against them.
8 And I will make <5414> the land <0776> desolate <8077>,
because <3282> they have committed <4600> a trespass <4604>,
saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
Ezekiel 16
1. Again the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me,
saying <0559>,
2 Son <1121> of man <0120>, cause Jerusalem <3389> to know
<3045> her abominations <8441>,
3 And say <0559>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069> unto Jerusalem <3389>; Thy birth <4351> and thy nativity
<4138> [is] of the land <0776> of Canaan <3667>; thy father <1>
[was] an Amorite <0567>, and thy mother <0517> an Hittite <2850>.
4 And [as for] thy nativity <4138>, in the day <3117> thou wast
born <3205> thy navel <8270> was not cut <3772>, neither <3808>
wast thou washed <7364> in water <4325> to supple <4935> [thee];
thou wast not salted <4414> at all, nor <3808> swaddled <2853>
at all.
5 None <3808> eye <5869> pitied <2347> thee, to do <6213> any
<0259> of these <0428> unto thee, to have compassion <2550> upon
thee; but thou wast cast <7993> out in the open <6440> field
<7704>, to the lothing <1604> of thy person <5315>, in the day
<3117> that thou wast born <3205>.
6. And when I passed <5674> by thee, and saw <7200> thee
polluted <0947> in thine own blood <1818>, I said <0559> unto
thee [when thou wast] in thy blood <1818>, Live <2421>; yea, I
said <0559> unto thee [when thou wast] in thy blood <1818>, Live
<2421>.
7 I have caused <5414> thee to multiply <7233> as the bud
<6779> of the field <7704>, and thou hast increased <7235> and
waxen great <1431>, and thou art come <0935> to excellent <5716>
ornaments <5716>: [thy] breasts <7699> are fashioned <3559>, and
thine hair <8181> is grown <6779>, whereas thou [wast] naked
<5903> and bare <6181>.
8 Now when I passed <5674> by thee, and looked <7200> upon thee,
behold <2009>, thy time <6256> [was] the time <6256> of love
<1730>; and I spread <6566> my skirt <3671> over <5921> thee,
and covered <3680> thy nakedness <6172>: yea, I sware <7650>
unto thee, and entered <0935> into a covenant <1285> with thee,
saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>, and thou becamest
<1961> mine.
9 Then washed <7364> I thee with water <4325>; yea, I throughly
washed <7857> away thy blood <1818> from thee, and I anointed
<5480> thee with oil <8081>.
10 I clothed <3847> thee also with broidered <7553> work <7553>,
and shod <5274> thee with badgers <8476>' skin, and I girded
<2280> thee about with fine linen <8336>, and I covered <3680>
thee with silk <4897>.
11 I decked <5710> thee also with ornaments <5716>, and I put
<5414> bracelets <6781> upon thy hands <3027>, and a chain
<7242> on <5921> thy neck <1627>.
12 And I put <5414> a jewel <5141> on <5921> thy forehead
<0639>, and earrings <5694> in thine ears <0241>, and a
beautiful <8597> crown <5850> upon thine head <7218>.
13 Thus wast thou decked <5710> with gold <2091> and silver
<3701>; and thy raiment <4403> [was of] fine linen <8336>, and
silk <4897>, and broidered <7553> work <7553>; thou didst eat
<0398> fine flour <5560>, and honey <1706>, and oil <8081>: and
thou wast exceeding <3966> beautiful <3303>, and thou didst
prosper <6743> into a kingdom <4410>.
14 And thy renown <8034> went <3318> forth <3318> among the
heathen <1471> for thy beauty <3308>: for it [was] perfect
<3632> through my comeliness <1926>, which <0834> I had put
<7760> upon thee, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
15. But thou didst trust <0982> in thine own beauty <3308>, and
playedst the harlot <2181> because <5921> of thy renown <8034>,
and pouredst <8210> out thy fornications <8457> on every <3605>
one that passed <5674> by; his it was.
16 And of thy garments <0899> thou didst take <3947>, and
deckedst <6213> thy high <1116> places with divers <2921>
colours <2921>, and playedst the harlot <2181> thereupon: [the
like things] shall not come <0935>, neither <3808> shall it be
[so].
17 Thou hast also taken <3947> thy fair <8597> jewels <3627> of
my gold <2091> and of my silver <3701>, which <0834> I had given
<5414> thee, and madest <6213> to thyself images <6754> of men
<2145>, and didst commit <2181> whoredom <2181> with them,
18 And tookest <3947> thy broidered <7553> garments <0899>, and
coveredst them: and thou hast set <5414> mine oil <8081> and
mine incense <7004> before <6440> them.
19 My meat <3899> also which <0834> I gave <5414> thee, fine
flour <5560>, and oil <8081>, and honey <1706>, [wherewith] I
fed <0398> thee, thou hast even set <5414> it before <6440> them
for a sweet <5207> savour <7381>: and [thus] it was, saith
<5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
20 Moreover thou hast taken <3947> thy sons <1121> and thy
daughters <1121>, whom <0834> thou hast borne <3205> unto me,
and these hast thou sacrificed <2076> unto them to be devoured
<0398>. [Is this] of thy whoredoms <8457> a small <4592> matter,
21 That thou hast slain <7819> my children <1121>, and
delivered <5414> them to cause them to pass <5674> through [the
fire] for them?
22 And in all <3605> thine abominations <8441> and thy
whoredoms <8457> thou hast not remembered <2142> the days <3117>
of thy youth <5271>, when thou wast <1961> naked <5903> and bare
<6181>, [and] wast <1961> polluted <0947> in thy blood <1818>.
23 And it came <1961> to pass after <0310> all <3605> thy
wickedness <7451>, (woe, woe <0188> unto thee! saith <5002> the
Lord <0136> GOD <3069>;)
24 [That] thou hast also built <1129> unto thee an eminent
<1354> place, and hast made <6213> thee an high <7413> place in
every <3605> street <7339>.
25 Thou hast built <1129> thy high <7413> place at <0413> every
<3605> head <7218> of the way <1870>, and hast made thy beauty
<3308> to be abhorred <8581>, and hast opened <6589> thy feet
<7272> to every <3605> one that passed <5674> by, and multiplied
<7235> thy whoredoms <8457>.
26 Thou hast also committed <2181> fornication <2181> with the
Egyptians <4714> thy neighbours <7934>, great <1432> of flesh
<1320>; and hast increased <7235> thy whoredoms <8457>, to
provoke me to anger <3707>.
27 Behold <2009>, therefore I have stretched <5186> out my hand
<3027> over <5921> thee, and have diminished <1639> thine
ordinary <2706> [food], and delivered <5414> thee unto the will
<5314> of them that hate <8130> thee, the daughters <1121> of
the Philistines <6430>, which are ashamed <3637> of thy lewd
<2154> way <1870>.
28 Thou hast played the whore <2181> also with the Assyrians
<0804>, because <1115> thou wast unsatiable; yea, thou hast
played the harlot <2181> with them, and yet couldest not be
satisfied <7646>.
29 Thou hast moreover multiplied <7235> thy fornication <8457>
in the land <0776> of Canaan <3667> unto Chaldea <3778>; and yet
<1571> thou wast not satisfied <7646> herewith.
30 How <4100> weak <0535> is thine heart <3826>, saith <5002>
the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>, seeing thou doest <6213> all <3605>
these <0428> [things], the work <4639> of an imperious <7986>
whorish <2181> woman <0802>;
31 In that thou buildest <1129> thine eminent <1354> place in
the head <7218> of every <3605> way <1870>, and makest <6213>
thine high <7413> place in every <3605> street <7339>; and hast
not been <1961> as an harlot <2181>, in that thou scornest
<7046> hire <0868>;
32 [But as] a wife <0802> that committeth <5003> adultery
<5003>, [which] taketh <3947> strangers <2114> instead <8478> of
her husband <0376>!
33 They give <5414> gifts <5078> to all <3605> whores <2181>:
but thou givest <5414> thy gifts <5083> to all <3605> thy lovers
<0157>, and hirest <7806> them, that they may come <0935> unto
thee on every <5437> side <5439> for thy whoredom <8457>.
34 And the contrary <2016> is in thee from [other] women <0802>
in thy whoredoms <8457>, whereas none <3808> followeth <0310>
thee to commit <2181> whoredoms <2181>: and in that thou givest
<5414> a reward <0868>, and no <3808> reward <0868> is given
<5414> unto thee, therefore thou art contrary <2016>.
35. Wherefore <3651>, O harlot <2181>, hear <8085> the word
<1697> of the LORD <3068>:
36 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Because
<3282> thy filthiness <5178> was poured <8210> out, and thy
nakedness <6172> discovered <1540> through thy whoredoms <8457>
with thy lovers <0157>, and with all <3605> the idols <1544> of
thy abominations <8441>, and by the blood <1818> of thy children
<1121>, which <0834> thou didst give <5414> unto them;
37 Behold <2005>, therefore <3651> I will gather <6908> all
<3605> thy lovers <0157>, with whom <0834> thou hast taken
pleasure <6148>, and all <3605> [them] that thou hast loved
<0157>, with all <3605> [them] that thou hast hated <8130>; I
will even gather <6908> them round <5439> about against <5921>
thee, and will discover <1540> thy nakedness <6172> unto them,
that they may see <7200> all <3605> thy nakedness <6172>.
38 And I will judge <8199> thee, as women that break <5003>
wedlock <5003> and shed <8210> blood <1818> are judged <4941>;
and I will give <5414> thee blood <1818> in fury <2534> and
jealousy <7068>.
39 And I will also give <5414> thee into their hand <3027>, and
they shall throw <2040> down <2040> thine eminent <1354> place,
and shall break <5422> down <5422> thy high <7413> places: they
shall strip <6584> thee also of thy clothes <0899>, and shall
take <3947> thy fair <8597> jewels <3627>, and leave <3241> thee
naked <5903> and bare <6181>.
40 They shall also bring <5927> up a company <6951> against
<5921> thee, and they shall stone <7275> thee with stones <68>,
and thrust <1333> thee through with their swords <2719>.
41 And they shall burn <8313> thine houses <1004> with fire
<0784>, and execute <6213> judgments <8201> upon thee in the
sight <5869> of many <7227> women <0802>: and I will cause thee
to cease <7673> from playing the harlot <2181>, and thou also
<1571> shalt give <5414> no <3808> hire <0868> any more <5750>.
42 So will I make my fury <2534> toward thee to rest <5117>,
and my jealousy <7068> shall depart <5493> from thee, and I will
be quiet <8252>, and will be no <3808> more <5750> angry <3707>.
43 Because thou hast not remembered <2142> the days <3117> of
thy youth <5271>, but hast fretted <7264> me in all <3605> these
<0428> [things]; behold <1887>, therefore I also <1571> will
recompense <5414> thy way <1870> upon [thine] head <7218>, saith
<5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>: and thou shalt not commit
<6213> this lewdness <2154> above <5921> all <3605> thine
abominations <8441>.
44. Behold <2009>, every <3605> one that useth proverbs <4911>
shall use <4911> [this] proverb <4911> against <5921> thee,
saying <0559>, As [is] the mother <0517>, [so is] her daughter
<1323>.
45 Thou [art] thy mother's <0517> daughter <1323>, that lotheth
<1602> her husband <0376> and her children <1121>; and thou
[art] the sister <0269> of thy sisters <0269>, which <0834>
lothed <1602> their husbands <0582> and their children <1121>:
your mother <0517> [was] an Hittite <2850>, and your father <1>
an Amorite <0567>.
46 And thine elder <1419> sister <0269> [is] Samaria <8111>,
she and her daughters <1121> that dwell <3427> at <5921> thy
left <8040> hand <8040>: and thy younger <6996> sister <0269>,
that dwelleth <3427> at thy right <3225> hand <3225>, [is] Sodom
<5467> and her daughters <1121>.
47 Yet hast thou not walked <1980> after their ways <1870>, nor
done <6213> after their abominations <8441>: but, as [if that
were] a very <6985> little <4592> [thing], thou wast corrupted
<7843> more than they in all <3605> thy ways <1870>.
48 [As] I live <2416>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>,
Sodom <5467> thy sister <0269> hath not done <6213>, she nor her
daughters <1121>, as thou hast done <6213>, thou and thy
daughters <1121>.
49 Behold <2009>, this <2088> was the iniquity <5771> of thy
sister <0269> Sodom <5467>, pride <1347>, fulness <7653> of
bread <3899>, and abundance <7962> of idleness <8252> was in her
and in her daughters <1121>, neither <3808> did she strengthen
<2388> the hand <3027> of the poor <6041> and needy <34>.
50 And they were haughty <1361>, and committed <6213>
abomination <8441> before <6440> me: therefore I took <5493>
them away <5493> as I saw <7200> [good].
51 Neither <3808> hath Samaria <8111> committed <2398> half
<2677> of thy sins <2403>; but thou hast multiplied <7235> thine
abominations <8441> more than they, and hast justified <6663>
thy sisters <0269> in all <3605> thine abominations <8441> which
<0834> thou hast done <6213>.
52 Thou also <1571>, which <0834> hast judged <6419> thy
sisters <0269>, bear <5375> thine own shame <3639> for thy sins
<2403> that thou hast committed <8581> more abominable <8581>
than they: they are more righteous <6663> than thou: yea <1571>,
be thou confounded <0954> also <1571>, and bear <5375> thy shame
<3639>, in that thou hast justified <6663> thy sisters <0269>.
53 When I shall bring <7725> again <7725> their captivity
<7622>, the captivity <7622> of Sodom <5467> and her daughters
<1121>, and the captivity <7622> of Samaria <8111> and her
daughters <1121>, then [will I bring again] the captivity <7622>
of thy captives <7628> in the midst <8432> of them:
54 That thou mayest bear <5375> thine own shame <3639>, and
mayest be confounded <3637> in all <3605> that thou hast done
<6213>, in that thou art a comfort <5162> unto them.
55 When thy sisters <0269>, Sodom <5467> and her daughters
<1121>, shall return <7725> to their former <6927> estate, and
Samaria <8111> and her daughters <1121> shall return <7725> to
their former <6927> estate <3653>, then thou and thy daughters
<1121> shall return <7725> to your former <6927> estate.
56 For thy sister <0269> Sodom <5467> was not mentioned <8052>
by thy mouth <6310> in the day <3117> of thy pride <1347>,
57 Before <2962> thy wickedness <7451> was discovered <1540>,
as at the time <6256> of [thy] reproach <2781> of the daughters
<1121> of Syria <0758>, and all <3605> [that are] round <5439>
about her, the daughters <1121> of the Philistines <6430>, which
despise <7590> thee round <5439> about.
58 Thou hast borne <5375> thy lewdness <2154> and thine
abominations <8441>, saith <5002> the LORD <3068>.
59 For thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; I
will even deal <6213> with thee as thou hast done <6213>, which
<0834> hast despised <0959> the oath <0423> in breaking <6565>
the covenant <1285>.
60. Nevertheless I will remember <2142> my covenant <1285> with
thee in the days <3117> of thy youth <5271>, and I will
establish <6965> unto thee an everlasting <5769> covenant <1285>.
61 Then thou shalt remember <2142> thy ways <1870>, and be
ashamed <3637>, when thou shalt receive <3947> thy sisters
<0269>, thine elder <1419> and thy younger <6996>: and I will
give <5414> them unto thee for daughters <1121>, but not by thy
covenant <1285>.
62 And I will establish <6965> my covenant <1285> with thee;
and thou shalt know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>:
63 That thou mayest remember <2142>, and be confounded <0954>,
and never <3808> open <6610> thy mouth <6310> any more <5750>
because <6440> of thy shame <3639>, when I am pacified <3722>
toward thee for all <3605> that thou hast done <6213>, saith
<5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
Ezekiel 17
1. And the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me,
saying <0559>,
2 Son <1121> of man <0120>, put <2330> forth <2330> a riddle
<2420>, and speak <4911> a parable <4912> unto the house <1004>
of Israel <3478>;
3 And say <0559>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>; A great <1419> eagle <5404> with great <1419> wings
<3671>, longwinged, full <4392> of feathers <5133>, which <0834>
had divers <7553> colours <7553>, came <0935> unto Lebanon
<3844>, and took <3947> the highest <6788> branch <6788> of the
cedar <0730>:
4 He cropped <6998> off the top <7218> of his young <3242>
twigs <3242>, and carried <0935> it into a land <0776> of
traffick <3667>; he set <7760> it in a city <5892> of merchants
<7402>.
5 He took <3947> also of the seed <2233> of the land <0776>,
and planted it in a fruitful <2233> field <7704>; he placed
<3947> [it] by great <7227> waters <4325>, [and] set <7760> it
[as] a willow <6851> tree.
6 And it grew <6779>, and became <1961> a spreading <5627> vine
<1612> of low <8217> stature <6967>, whose branches <1808>
turned <6437> toward <0413> him, and the roots <8328> thereof
were under <8478> him: so it became <1961> a vine <1612>, and
brought <5375> forth <6213> branches <0905>, and shot <7971>
forth sprigs <6288>.
7 There was also another <0259> great <1419> eagle <5404> with
great <1419> wings <3671> and many <7227> feathers <5133>: and,
behold <2009>, this <2063> vine <1612> did bend <3719> her roots
<8328> toward <5921> him, and shot <7971> forth her branches
<1808> toward <5921> him, that he might water <8248> it by the
furrows <6170> of her plantation <4302>.
8 It was planted <8362> in a good <2896> soil <7704> by great
<7227> waters <4325>, that it might bring <6213> forth <6213>
branches <6057>, and that it might bear <5375> fruit <6529>,
that it might be a goodly <0155> vine <1612>.
9 Say <0559> thou, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>; Shall it prosper <6743>? shall he not pull <5423> up the
roots <8328> thereof, and cut <7082> off the fruit <6529>
thereof, that it wither <3001>? it shall wither <3001> in all
<3605> the leaves <2964> of her spring <6780>, even without
<3808> great <1419> power <2220> or many <7227> people <5971> to
pluck <5375> it up by the roots <8328> thereof.
10 Yea, behold <2009>, [being] planted <8362>, shall it prosper
<6743>? shall it not utterly wither <3001>, when the east <6921>
wind <7307> toucheth <5060> it? it shall wither <3001> in the
furrows <6170> where <5921> it grew <6780>.
11 Moreover the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto
me, saying <0559>,
12 Say <0559> now <4994> to the rebellious <4805> house <1004>,
Know <3045> ye not what <4100> these <0428> [things mean]? tell
<0559> [them], Behold <2009>, the king <4428> of Babylon <0894>
is come <0935> to Jerusalem <3389>, and hath taken <3947> the
king <4428> thereof, and the princes <8269> thereof, and led
<0935> them with him to Babylon <0894>;
13 And hath taken <3947> of the king's <4410> seed <2233>, and
made <3772> a covenant <1285> with him, and hath taken <0935> an
oath <0423> of him: he hath also taken <3947> the mighty <0352>
of the land <0776>:
14 That the kingdom <4467> might be base <8217>, that it might
not lift <5375> itself up, [but] that by keeping <8104> of his
covenant <1285> it might stand <5975>.
15 But he rebelled <4775> against him in sending <7971> his
ambassadors <4397> into Egypt <4714>, that they might give
<5414> him horses <5483> and much <7227> people <5971>. Shall he
prosper <6743>? shall he escape <4422> that doeth <6213> such
<0428> [things]? or shall he break <6565> the covenant <1285>,
and be delivered <4422>?
16 [As] I live <2416>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>,
surely in the place <4725> [where] the king <4428> [dwelleth]
that made him king <4427>, whose oath <0423> he despised <0959>,
and whose <0853> covenant <1285> he brake <6565>, [even] with
him in the midst <8432> of Babylon <0894> he shall die <4191>.
17 Neither <3808> shall Pharaoh <6547> with [his] mighty <1419>
army <2428> and great <7227> company <6951> make <6213> for him
in the war <4421>, by casting <8210> up mounts <5550>, and
building <1129> forts <1785>, to cut <3772> off many <7227>
persons <5315>:
18 Seeing he despised <0959> the oath <0423> by breaking <6565>
the covenant <1285>, when, lo <2009>, he had given <5414> his
hand <3027>, and hath done <6213> all <3605> these <0428>
[things], he shall not escape <4422>.
19 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136>
GOD <3069>; [As] I live <2416>, surely mine oath <0423> that he
hath despised <0959>, and my covenant <1285> that he hath broken
<6331>, even it will I recompense <5414> upon his own head
<7218>.
20 And I will spread <6566> my net <7568> upon him, and he
shall be taken <8610> in my snare <4686>, and I will bring
<0935> him to Babylon <0894>, and will plead <8199> with him
there <8033> for his trespass <4604> that he hath trespassed
<4604> against me.
21 And all <3605> his fugitives <4015> with all <3605> his
bands <0102> shall fall <5307> by the sword <2719>, and they
that remain <7604> shall be scattered <6566> toward all <3605>
winds <7307>: and ye shall know <3045> that I the LORD <3068>
have spoken <1696> [it].
22. Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; I will
also take <3947> of the highest <6788> branch <6788> of the high
<7311> cedar <0730>, and will set <5414> [it]; I will crop
<6998> off from the top <7218> of his young <3127> twigs <3127>
a tender <7390> one, and will plant <8362> [it] upon an high
<1364> mountain <2022> and eminent <8524>:
23 In the mountain <2022> of the height <4791> of Israel <3478>
will I plant <8362> it: and it shall bring <5375> forth <5375>
boughs <6057>, and bear <6213> fruit <6529>, and be a goodly
<0117> cedar <0730>: and under <8478> it shall dwell <7931> all
<3605> fowl <6833> of every <3605> wing <3671>; in the shadow
<6738> of the branches <1808> thereof shall they dwell <7931>.
24 And all <3605> the trees <6086> of the field <7704> shall
know <3045> that I the LORD <3068> have brought <8213> down
<8213> the high <1364> tree <6086>, have exalted <1361> the low
<8217> tree <6086>, have dried <3001> up the green <3892> tree
<6086>, and have made the dry <3002> tree <6086> to flourish
<6524>: I the LORD <3068> have spoken <1696> and have done
<6213> [it].
Ezekiel 18
1. The word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me again,
saying <0559>,
2 What <4100> mean ye, that ye use <4911> this <2088> proverb
<4911> concerning <5921> the land <0127> of Israel <3478>,
saying <0559>, The fathers <1> have eaten <0398> sour <1155>
grapes <1154>, and the children's <1121> teeth <8127> are set on
edge <6949>?
3 [As] I live <2416>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>,
ye shall not have [occasion] any more <5750> to use <4911> this
<2088> proverb <4911> in Israel <3478>.
4 Behold <2005>, all <3605> souls <5315> are mine; as the soul
<5315> of the father <1>, so also the soul <5315> of the son
<1121> is mine: the soul <5315> that sinneth <2398>, it shall
die <4191>.
5 But if <3588> a man <0376> be just <6662>, and do <6213> that
which is lawful <4941> and right <6666>,
6 [And] hath not eaten <0398> upon the mountains <2022>,
neither <3808> hath lifted <5375> up his eyes <5869> to the
idols <1544> of the house <1004> of Israel <3478>, neither
<3808> hath defiled <2930> his neighbour's <7453> wife <0802>,
neither <3808> hath come <7126> near <7126> to a menstruous
<5079> woman <0802>,
7 And hath not oppressed <3238> any <0376>, [but] hath restored
<7725> to the debtor <2326> his pledge <2258>, hath spoiled
<1497> none <3808> by violence <1500>, hath given <5414> his
bread <3899> to the hungry <7456>, and hath covered <3680> the
naked <5903> with a garment <0899>;
8 He [that] hath not given <5414> forth upon usury <5392>,
neither <3808> hath taken <3947> any increase <8635>, [that]
hath withdrawn <7725> his hand <3027> from iniquity <5766>, hath
executed <6213> true <0571> judgment <4941> between <0996> man
<0376> and man <0376>,
9 Hath walked <1980> in my statutes <2708>, and hath kept
<8104> my judgments <4941>, to deal <6213> truly <0571>; he [is]
just <6662>, he shall surely live <2421>, saith <5002> the Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>.
10. If he beget <3205> a son <1121> [that is] a robber <6530>,
a shedder <8210> of blood <1818>, and [that] doeth <6213> the
like <0251> to [any] one <0259> of these <0428> [things],
11 And that doeth <6213> not any <3605> of those <0428>
[duties], but even <1571> hath eaten <0398> upon the mountains
<2022>, and defiled <2930> his neighbour's <7453> wife <0802>,
12 Hath oppressed <3238> the poor <6041> and needy <34>, hath
spoiled <1497> by violence <1500>, hath not restored <7725> the
pledge <2258>, and hath lifted <5375> up his eyes <5869> to the
idols <1544>, hath committed <6213> abomination <8441>,
13 Hath given <5414> forth upon usury <5392>, and hath taken
<3947> increase <8635>: shall he then live <2425>? he shall not
live <2421>: he hath done <6213> all <3605> these <0428>
abominations <8441>; he shall surely die <4191>; his blood
<1818> shall be upon him.
14 Now, lo <2009>, [if] he beget <3205> a son <1121>, that
seeth <7200> all <3605> his father's <1> sins <2403> which
<0834> he hath done <6213>, and considereth <7200>, and doeth
<6213> not such <2007> like,
15 [That] hath not eaten <0398> upon the mountains <2022>,
neither <3808> hath lifted <5375> up his eyes <5869> to the
idols <1544> of the house <1004> of Israel <3478>, hath not
defiled <2930> his neighbour's <7453> wife <0802>,
16 Neither <3808> hath oppressed <3238> any <0376>, hath not
withholden <2254> the pledge <2258>, neither <3808> hath spoiled
<1497> by violence <1500>, [but] hath given <5414> his bread
<3899> to the hungry <7456>, and hath covered <3680> the naked
<5903> with a garment <0899>,
17 [That] hath taken <7725> off his hand <3027> from the poor
<6041>, [that] hath not received <3947> usury <5392> nor
increase <8635>, hath executed <6213> my judgments <4941>, hath
walked <1980> in my statutes <2708>; he shall not die <4191> for
the iniquity <5771> of his father <1>, he shall surely live
<2421>.
18 [As for] his father <1>, because <3588> he cruelly <6233>
oppressed <6231>, spoiled <1497> his brother <0251> by violence
<1499>, and did <6213> [that] which <0834> [is] not good <2896>
among <8432> his people <5971>, lo <2009>, even he shall die
<4191> in his iniquity <5771>.
19 Yet say <0559> ye, Why <4069>? doth not the son <1121> bear
<5375> the iniquity <5771> of the father <1>? When the son
<1121> hath done <6213> that which is lawful <4941> and right
<6666>, [and] hath kept <8104> all <3605> my statutes <2708>,
and hath done <6213> them, he shall surely live <2421>.
20 The soul <5315> that sinneth <2398>, it shall die <4191>.
The son <1121> shall not bear <5375> the iniquity <5771> of the
father <1>, neither <3808> shall the father <1> bear <5375> the
iniquity <5771> of the son <1121>: the righteousness <6666> of
the righteous <6662> shall be upon him, and the wickedness
<7564> of the wicked <7563> shall be upon him.
21. But if the wicked <7563> will turn <7725> from all <3605>
his sins <2403> that he hath committed <6213>, and keep <8104>
all <3605> my statutes <2708>, and do <6213> that which is
lawful <4941> and right <6666>, he shall surely live <2421>, he
shall not die <4191>.
22 All <3605> his transgressions <6588> that he hath committed
<6213>, they shall not be mentioned <2142> unto him: in his
righteousness <6666> that he hath done <6213> he shall live
<2421>.
23 Have I any pleasure <2654> at all that the wicked <7563>
should die <4194>? saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>:
[and] not that he should return <7725> from his ways <1870>, and
live <2421>?
24 But when the righteous <6662> turneth <7725> away from his
righteousness <6666>, and committeth <6213> iniquity <5766>,
[and] doeth <6213> according to all <3605> the abominations
<8441> that the wicked <7563> [man] doeth <6213>, shall he live
<2425>? All <3605> his righteousness <6666> that he hath done
<6213> shall not be mentioned <2142>: in his trespass <4604>
that he hath trespassed <4604>, and in his sin <2403> that he
hath sinned <2398>, in them shall he die <4191>.
25 Yet ye say <0559>, The way <1870> of the Lord <0136> is not
equal <8505>. Hear <8085> now <4994>, O house <1004> of Israel
<3478>; Is not my way <1870> equal <8505>? are not your ways
<1870> unequal?
26 When a righteous <6662> [man] turneth <7725> away from his
righteousness <6666>, and committeth <6213> iniquity <5766>, and
dieth <4191> in them; for his iniquity <5766> that he hath done
<6213> shall he die <4191>.
27 Again, when the wicked <7563> [man] turneth <7725> away from
his wickedness <7564> that he hath committed <6213>, and doeth
<6213> that which is lawful <4941> and right <6666>, he shall
save <2421> his soul <5315> alive <2421>.
28 Because he considereth <7200>, and turneth <7725> away from
all <3605> his transgressions <6588> that he hath committed
<6213>, he shall surely live <2421>, he shall not die <4191>.
29 Yet saith <0559> the house <1004> of Israel <3478>, The way
<1870> of the Lord <0136> is not equal <8505>. O house <1004> of
Israel <3478>, are not my ways <1870> equal <8505>? are not your
ways <1870> unequal?
30. Therefore <3651> I will judge <8199> you, O house <1004> of
Israel <3478>, every <0376> one <0376> according to his ways
<1870>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>. Repent <7725>,
and turn <7725> [yourselves] from all <3605> your transgressions
<6588>; so iniquity <5771> shall not be your ruin <4383>.
31 Cast <7993> away from you all <3605> your transgressions
<6588>, whereby <0834> ye have transgressed <6586>; and make
<6213> you a new <2319> heart <3820> and a new <2319> spirit
<7307>: for why <4100> will ye die <4191>, O house <1004> of
Israel <3478>?
32 For I have no <3808> pleasure <2654> in the death <4194> of
him that dieth <4191>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>:
wherefore turn <7725> [yourselves], and live <2421> ye.
Ezekiel 19
1. Moreover take <5375> thou up a lamentation <7015> for the
princes <5387> of Israel <3478>,
2 And say <0559>, What <4100> [is] thy mother <0517>? A lioness
<3833>: she lay <7257> down <7257> among <0996> lions <0738>,
she nourished <7235> her whelps <1482> among <8432> young <3715>
lions <3715>.
3 And she brought <5927> up one <0259> of her whelps <1482>: it
became <1961> a young <3715> lion <3715>, and it learned <3925>
to catch <2963> the prey <2964>; it devoured <0398> men <0120>.
4 The nations <1471> also heard <8085> of him; he was taken
<8610> in their pit <7845>, and they brought <0935> him with
chains <2397> unto the land <0776> of Egypt <4714>.
5 Now when she saw <7200> that she had waited <3176>, [and] her
hope <8615> was lost <6>, then she took <3947> another <0259> of
her whelps <1482>, [and] made <7760> him a young <3715> lion
<3715>.
6 And he went <1980> up and down among <8432> the lions <0738>,
he became <1961> a young <3715> lion <3715>, and learned <3925>
to catch <2963> the prey <2964>, [and] devoured <0398> men
<0120>.
7 And he knew <3045> their desolate <0490> palaces, and he laid
waste <2717> their cities <5892>; and the land <0776> was
desolate <3456>, and the fulness <4393> thereof, by the noise
<6963> of his roaring <7581>.
8 Then the nations <1471> set <5414> against <5921> him on
every <5437> side <5439> from the provinces <4082>, and spread
<6566> their net <7568> over <5921> him: he was taken <8610> in
their pit <7845>.
9 And they put <5414> him in ward <5474> in chains <2397>, and
brought <0935> him to the king <4428> of Babylon <0894>: they
brought <0935> him into holds <4686>, that his voice <6963>
should no <3808> more <5750> be heard <8085> upon the mountains
<2022> of Israel <3478>.
10. Thy mother <0517> [is] like a vine <1612> in thy blood
<1818>, planted <8362> by the waters <4325>: she was fruitful
<6509> and full of branches <6058> by reason of many <7227>
waters <4325>.
11 And she had <1961> strong <5797> rods <4294> for the
sceptres <7626> of them that bare <4910> rule <4910>, and her
stature <6967> was exalted <1361> among <0996> the thick <5688>
branches <5688>, and she appeared <7200> in her height <1363>
with the multitude <7230> of her branches <1808>.
12 But she was plucked <5428> up in fury <2534>, she was cast
<7993> down to the ground <0776>, and the east <6921> wind
<7307> dried <3001> up her fruit <6529>: her strong <5797> rods
<4294> were broken <6531> and withered <3001>; the fire <0784>
consumed <0398> them.
13 And now <6258> she [is] planted <8362> in the wilderness
<4057>, in a dry <6723> and thirsty <6772> ground <0776>.
14 And fire <0784> is gone <3318> out of a rod <4294> of her
branches <0905>, [which] hath devoured <0398> her fruit <6529>,
so that she hath no <3808> strong <5797> rod <4294> [to be] a
sceptre <7626> to rule <4910>. This <1931> [is] a lamentation
<7015>, and shall be for a lamentation <7015>.
Ezekiel 20
1. And it came <1961> to pass in the seventh <7637> year <8141>,
in the fifth <2549> [month], the tenth <6218> [day] of the
month <2320>, [that] certain <0582> of the elders <2205> of
Israel <3478> came <0935> to enquire <1875> of the LORD <3068>,
and sat <3427> before <6440> me.
2 Then came <1961> the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> unto me,
saying <0559>,
3 Son <1121> of man <0120>, speak <1696> unto the elders <2205>
of Israel <3478>, and say <0559> unto them, Thus <3541> saith
<0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Are ye come <0935> to enquire
<1875> of me? [As] I live <2416>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136>
GOD <3069>, I will not be enquired <1875> of by you.
4 Wilt thou judge <8199> them, son <1121> of man <0120>, wilt
thou judge <8199> [them]? cause them to know <3045> the
abominations <8441> of their fathers <1>:
5. And say <0559> unto them, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>; In the day <3117> when I chose <0977> Israel
<3478>, and lifted <5375> up mine hand <3027> unto the seed
<2233> of the house <1004> of Jacob <3290>, and made myself
known <3045> unto them in the land <0776> of Egypt <4714>, when
I lifted <5375> up mine hand <3027> unto them, saying <0559>, I
[am] the LORD <3068> your God <0430>;
6 In the day <3117> [that] I lifted <5375> up mine hand <3027>
unto them, to bring <3318> them forth <3318> of the land <0776>
of Egypt <4714> into <0413> a land <0776> that I had espied
<8446> for them, flowing <2100> with milk <2461> and honey
<1706>, which <1958> [is] the glory <6643> of all <3605> lands
<0776>:
7 Then said <0559> I unto them, Cast <7993> ye away every man
<0376> the abominations <8251> of his eyes <5869>, and defile
<2930> not yourselves with the idols <1544> of Egypt <4714>: I
[am] the LORD <3068> your God <0430>.
8 But they rebelled <4784> against me, and would <14> not
hearken <8085> unto me: they did not every man <0376> cast
<7993> away the abominations <8251> of their eyes <5869>,
neither <3808> did they forsake <5800> the idols <1544> of Egypt
<4714>: then I said <0559>, I will pour <8210> out my fury
<2534> upon them, to accomplish <3615> my anger <0639> against
them in the midst <8432> of the land <0776> of Egypt <4714>.
9 But I wrought <6213> for my name's <8034> sake <4616>, that
it should not be polluted <2490> before <5869> the heathen
<1471>, among <8432> whom <0834> they [were], in whose <0853>
sight <5869> I made myself known <3045> unto them, in bringing
<3318> them forth <3318> out of the land <0776> of Egypt <4714>.
10. Wherefore I caused them to go <3318> forth <3318> out of
the land <0776> of Egypt <4714>, and brought <0935> them into
<0413> the wilderness <4057>.
11 And I gave <5414> them my statutes <2708>, and shewed <3045>
them my judgments <4941>, which <0834> [if] a man <0120> do
<6213>, he shall even live <2425> in them.
12 Moreover <1571> also <1571> I gave <5414> them my sabbaths
<7676>, to be a sign <0226> between <0996> me and them, that
they might know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068> that sanctify
<6942> them.
13 But the house <1004> of Israel <3478> rebelled <4784>
against me in the wilderness <4057>: they walked <1980> not in
my statutes <2708>, and they despised <3988> my judgments <4941>,
which <0834> [if] a man <0120> do <6213>, he shall even live
<2425> in them; and my sabbaths <7676> they greatly <3966>
polluted <2490>: then I said <0559>, I would pour <8210> out my
fury <2534> upon them in the wilderness <4057>, to consume
<3615> them.
14 But I wrought <6213> for my name's <8034> sake <4616>, that
it should not be polluted <2490> before <5869> the heathen
<1471>, in whose <0834> sight <5869> I brought <3318> them out.
15 Yet also <1571> I lifted <5375> up my hand <3027> unto them
in the wilderness <4057>, that I would not bring <0935> them
into <0413> the land <0776> which <0834> I had given <5414>
[them], flowing <2100> with milk <2461> and honey <1706>, which
<1958> [is] the glory of all <3605> lands <0776>;
16 Because <3282> they despised <3988> my judgments <4941>, and
walked <1980> not in my statutes <2708>, but polluted <2490> my
sabbaths <7676>: for their heart <3820> went <1980> after <0310>
their idols <1544>.
17 Nevertheless mine eye <5869> spared <2347> them from
destroying <7843> them, neither <3808> did I make <6213> an end
<3615> of them in the wilderness <4057>.
18 But I said <0559> unto their children <1121> in the
wilderness <4057>, Walk <3212> ye not in the statutes <2706> of
your fathers <1>, neither <0408> observe <8104> their judgments
<4941>, nor <0408> defile <2930> yourselves with their idols
<1544>:
19 I [am] the LORD <3068> your God <0430>; walk <3212> in my
statutes <2708>, and keep <8104> my judgments <4941>, and do
<6213> them;
20 And hallow <6942> my sabbaths <7676>; and they shall be a
sign <0226> between <0996> me and you, that ye may know <3045>
that I [am] the LORD <3068> your God <0430>.
21 Notwithstanding the children <1121> rebelled <4784> against
me: they walked <1980> not in my statutes <2708>, neither <3808>
kept <8104> my judgments <4941> to do <6213> them, which <0834>
[if] a man <0120> do <6213>, he shall even live <2425> in them;
they polluted <2490> my sabbaths <7676>: then I said <0559>, I
would pour <8210> out my fury <2534> upon them, to accomplish
<3615> my anger <0639> against them in the wilderness <4057>.
22 Nevertheless I withdrew <7725> mine hand <3027>, and wrought
<6213> for my name's <8034> sake <4616>, that it should not be
polluted <2490> in the sight <5869> of the heathen <1471>, in
whose <0834> sight <5869> I brought <3318> them forth <3318>.
23 I lifted <5375> up mine hand <3027> unto them also <1571> in
the wilderness <4057>, that I would scatter <6327> them among
the heathen <1471>, and disperse <2219> them through the
countries <0776>;
24 Because <3282> they had not executed <6213> my judgments
<4941>, but had despised <3988> my statutes <2708>, and had
polluted <2490> my sabbaths <7676>, and their eyes <5869> were
after <0310> their fathers <1>' idols <1544>.
25 Wherefore I gave <5414> them also <1571> statutes <2706>
[that were] not good <2896>, and judgments <4941> whereby they
should not live <2421>;
26 And I polluted <2930> them in their own gifts <4979>, in
that they caused to pass <5674> through [the fire] all <3605>
that openeth <6363> the womb <7356>, that I might make them
desolate <8074>, to the end <4616> that they might know <3045>
that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
27. Therefore <3651>, son <1121> of man <0120>, speak <1696>
unto the house <1004> of Israel <3478>, and say <0559> unto them,
Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Yet <5750>
in this <2063> your fathers <1> have blasphemed <1442> me, in
that they have committed <4600> a trespass <4604> against me.
28 [For] when I had brought <0935> them into <0413> the land
<0776>, [for] the which <0834> I lifted <5375> up mine hand
<3027> to give <5414> it to them, then they saw <7200> every
<3605> high <7311> hill <1389>, and all <3605> the thick <5687>
trees <6086>, and they offered <2076> there <8033> their
sacrifices <2077>, and there <8033> they presented <5414> the
provocation <3708> of their offering <7133>: there <8033> also
they made <7760> their sweet <5207> savour <7381>, and poured
<5258> out there <8033> their drink <5262> offerings.
29 Then I said <0559> unto them, What <4100> [is] the high
<1116> place whereunto ye go <0935>? And the name <8034> thereof
is called <7121> Bamah <1117> unto this <2088> day <3117>.
30 Wherefore <3651> say <0559> unto the house <1004> of Israel
<3478>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Are
ye polluted <2930> after the manner <1870> of your fathers <1>?
and commit <2181> ye whoredom <2181> after <0310> their
abominations <8251>?
31 For when ye offer <5375> your gifts <4979>, when ye make
your sons <1121> to pass <5674> through the fire <0784>, ye
pollute <2930> yourselves with all <3605> your idols <1544>,
even unto this day <3117>: and shall I be enquired <1875> of by
you, O house <1004> of Israel <3478>? [As] I live <2416>, saith
<5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>, I will not be enquired of by
you.
32 And that which cometh <5927> into <5921> your mind <7307>
shall not be at all, that ye say <0559>, We will be as the
heathen <1471>, as the families <4940> of the countries <0776>,
to serve <8334> wood <6086> and stone <68>.
33. [As] I live, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>,
surely with a mighty <2389> hand <3027>, and with a stretched
<5186> out arm <2220>, and with fury <2534> poured <8210> out,
will I rule <4427> over you:
34 And I will bring <3318> you out from the people <5971>, and
will gather <6908> you out of the countries <0776> wherein
<0834> ye are scattered <6327>, with a mighty <2389> hand <3027>,
and with a stretched <5186> out arm <2220>, and with fury
<2534> poured <8210> out.
35 And I will bring <0935> you into <0413> the wilderness
<4057> of the people <5971>, and there <8033> will I plead
<8199> with you face <6440> to face <6440>.
36 Like as I pleaded <8199> with your fathers <1> in the
wilderness <4057> of the land <0776> of Egypt <4714>, so <3651>
will I plead <8199> with you, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>.
37 And I will cause you to pass <5674> under <8478> the rod
<7626>, and I will bring <0935> you into the bond <4562> of the
covenant <1285>:
38 And I will purge <1305> out from among you the rebels <4775>,
and them that transgress <6586> against me: I will bring <3318>
them forth <3318> out of the country <0776> where they sojourn
<4033>, and they shall not enter <0935> into <0413> the land
<0127> of Israel <3478>: and ye shall know <3045> that I [am]
the LORD <3068>.
39 As for you, O house <1004> of Israel <3478>, thus <3541>
saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Go <3212> ye, serve
<5647> ye every <0376> one <0376> his idols <1544>, and
hereafter <0310> [also], if <0518> ye will not hearken <8085>
unto me: but pollute <2490> ye my holy <6944> name <8034> no
<3808> more <5750> with your gifts <4979>, and with your idols
<1544>.
40 For in mine holy <6944> mountain <2022>, in the mountain
<2022> of the height <4791> of Israel <3478>, saith <5002> the
Lord <0136> GOD <3069>, there <8033> shall all <3605> the house
<1004> of Israel <3478>, all <3605> of them in the land <0776>,
serve <5647> me: there <8033> will I accept <7521> them, and
there <8033> will I require <1875> your offerings <8641>, and
the firstfruits <7225> of your oblations <4864>, with all <3605>
your holy things.
41 I will accept <7521> you with your sweet <5207> savour
<7381>, when I bring <3318> you out from the people <5971>, and
gather <6908> you out of the countries <0776> wherein ye have
been scattered <6327>; and I will be sanctified <6942> in you
before <5869> the heathen <1471>.
42 And ye shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>, when I
shall bring <0935> you into <0413> the land <0127> of Israel
<3478>, into <0413> the country <0776> [for] the which <0834> I
lifted <5375> up mine hand <3027> to give <5414> it to your
fathers <1>.
43 And there <8033> shall ye remember <2142> your ways <1870>,
and all <3605> your doings <5949>, wherein <0834> ye have been
defiled <2930>; and ye shall lothe <6962> yourselves in your own
sight <6440> for all <3605> your evils <7451> that ye have
committed <6213>.
44 And ye shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>, when
<3588> I have wrought <6213> with you for my name's <8034> sake
<4616>, not according to your wicked <7451> ways <1870>, nor
according to your corrupt <7843> doings <5949>, O ye house
<1004> of Israel <3478>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
45. Moreover the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961>
unto me, saying <0559>,
46 Son <1121> of man <0120>, set <7760> thy face <6440> toward
<1870> the south <8486>, and drop <5197> [thy word] toward
<0413> the south <1864>, and prophesy <5012> against <0413> the
forest <3293> of the south <5045> field <7704>;
47 And say <0559> to the forest <3293> of the south <5045>,
Hear <8085> the word <1697> of the LORD <3068>; Thus <3541>
saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Behold <2005>, I will
kindle <3341> a fire <0784> in thee, and it shall devour <0398>
every <3605> green <3892> tree <6086> in thee, and every <3605>
dry <3002> tree <6086>: the flaming <3852> flame <7957> shall
not be quenched <3518>, and all <3605> faces <6440> from the
south <5045> to the north <6828> shall be burned <6866> therein.
48 And all <3605> flesh <1320> shall see <7200> that I the LORD
<3068> have kindled <1197> it: it shall not be quenched <3518>.
49 Then said <0559> I, Ah <0162> Lord <0136> GOD <3069>! they
say <0559> of me, Doth he not speak <4911> parables <4912>?
Ezekiel 21
1. And the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me,
saying <0559>,
2 Son <1121> of man <0120>, set <7760> thy face <6440> toward
<0413> Jerusalem <3389>, and drop <5197> [thy word] toward
<0413> the holy <4720> places, and prophesy <5012> against
<0413> the land <0127> of Israel <3478>,
3 And say <0559> to the land <0127> of Israel <3478>, Thus
<3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>; Behold <2005>, I [am]
against <0413> thee, and will draw <3318> forth <3318> my sword
<2719> out of his sheath <8593>, and will cut <3772> off from
thee the righteous <6662> and the wicked <7563>.
4 Seeing <3282> then that I will cut <3772> off from thee the
righteous <6662> and the wicked <7563>, therefore shall my sword
<2719> go <3318> forth <3318> out of his sheath <8593> against
<0413> all <3605> flesh <1320> from the south <5045> to the
north <6828>:
5 That all <3605> flesh <1320> may know <3045> that I the LORD
<3068> have drawn <3318> forth <3318> my sword <2719> out of his
sheath <8593>: it shall not return <7725> any more <5750>.
6 Sigh <0584> therefore, thou son <1121> of man <0120>, with
the breaking <7670> of [thy] loins <4975>; and with bitterness
<4814> sigh <0584> before their eyes <5869>.
7 And it shall be, when <3588> they say <0559> unto thee,
Wherefore sighest <0584> thou? that thou shalt answer <0559>,
For the tidings <8052>; because <3588> it cometh <0935>: and
every <3605> heart <3820> shall melt <4549>, and all <3605>
hands <3027> shall be feeble <7503>, and every <3605> spirit
<7307> shall faint <3543>, and all <3605> knees <1290> shall be
weak <3212> [as] water <4325>: behold <2009>, it cometh <0935>,
and shall be brought <1961> to pass, saith <5002> the Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>.
8. Again the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me,
saying <0559>,
9 Son <1121> of man <0120>, prophesy <5012>, and say <0559>,
Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>; Say <0559>, A sword
<2719>, a sword <2719> is sharpened <2300>, and also <1571>
furbished <4803>:
10 It is sharpened <2300> to make a sore slaughter <2873>; it
is furbished <4803> that it may glitter <1300>: should we then
<0176> make mirth <7797>? it contemneth <3988> the rod <7626> of
my son <1121>, [as] every <3605> tree <6086>.
11 And he hath given <5414> it to be furbished <4803>, that it
may be handled: this <1931> sword <2719> is sharpened <2300>,
and it is furbished <4803>, to give <5414> it into the hand
<3027> of the slayer <2026>.
12 Cry <2199> and howl <3213>, son <1121> of man <0120>: for it
shall be upon my people <5971>, it [shall be] upon all <3605>
the princes <5387> of Israel <3478>: terrors <4048> by reason
<0413> of the sword <2719> shall be upon my people <5971>: smite
<5606> therefore upon [thy] thigh <3409>.
13 Because <3588> [it is] a trial <0974>, and what <4100> if
<0518> [the sword] contemn <3988> even <1571> the rod <7626>? it
shall be no <3808> [more], saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>.
14 Thou therefore, son <1121> of man <0120>, prophesy <5012>,
and smite <5221> [thine] hands <3709> together, and let the
sword <2719> be doubled <3717> the third <7992> time, the sword
<2719> of the slain <2491>: it [is] the sword <2719> of the
great <1419> [men that are] slain <2491>, which entereth into
their privy <2314> chambers <2315>.
15 I have set <5414> the point <19> of the sword <2719> against
<5921> all <3605> their gates <8179>, that [their] heart <3820>
may faint <4127>, and [their] ruins <4383> be multiplied <7235>:
ah <0253>! [it is] made bright <1300>, [it is] wrapped <4593> up
for the slaughter <2875>.
16 Go <0258> thee one way or other, [either] on the right
<3231> hand <3221>, [or] on the left <8041>, whithersoever
<0575> thy face <6440> [is] set <3259>.
17 I will also <1571> smite <5221> mine hands <3709> together,
and I will cause my fury <2534> to rest <5117>: I the LORD
<3068> have said <1696> [it].
18. The word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me
again, saying <0559>,
19 Also, thou son <1121> of man <0120>, appoint <7760> thee two
<8147> ways <1870>, that the sword <2719> of the king <4428> of
Babylon <0894> may come <0935>: both twain <8147> shall come
<3318> forth <3318> out of one <0259> land <0776>: and choose
<1254> thou a place <3027>, choose <1254> [it] at the head
<7218> of the way <1870> to the city <5892>.
20 Appoint <7760> a way <1870>, that the sword <2719> may come
<0935> to Rabbath <7237> of the Ammonites <5984>, and to Judah
<3063> in Jerusalem <3389> the defenced <1219>.
21 For the king <4428> of Babylon <0894> stood <5975> at <0413>
the parting <0517> of the way <1870>, at the head <7218> of the
two <8147> ways <1870>, to use <7080> divination <7081>: he made
[his] arrows <2671> bright <7043>, he consulted <7592> with
images <8655>, he looked <7200> in the liver <3516>.
22 At his right <3225> hand <3225> was the divination <7081>
for Jerusalem <3389>, to appoint <7760> captains <3733>, to open
<6605> the mouth <6310> in the slaughter <7524>, to lift <7311>
up the voice <6963> with shouting <8643>, to appoint <7760>
[battering] rams <3733> against <5921> the gates <8179>, to cast
<8210> a mount <5550>, [and] to build <1129> a fort <1785>.
23 And it shall be unto them as a false <7723> divination
<7080> in their sight <5869>, to them that have sworn <7650>
oaths <7621>: but he will call <2142> to remembrance <2142> the
iniquity <5771>, that they may be taken <8610>.
24 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136>
GOD <3069>; Because <3282> ye have made your iniquity <5771> to
be remembered <2142>, in that your transgressions <6588> are
discovered <1540>, so that in all <3605> your doings <5949> your
sins <2403> do appear <7200>; because <3282>, [I say], that ye
are come to remembrance <2142>, ye shall be taken <8610> with
the hand <3079>.
25 And thou, profane <2491> wicked <7563> prince <5387> of
Israel <3478>, whose <0834> day <3117> is come <0935>, when
<6256> iniquity <5771> [shall have] an end <7093>,
26 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Remove
<5493> the diadem <4701>, and take <7311> off the crown <5850>:
this <2063> [shall] not [be] the same <2063>: exalt <1361> [him
that is] low <8217>, and abase <8213> [him that is] high <1364>.
27 I will overturn <5754>, overturn <5754>, overturn <5754>, it:
and it shall be no <3808> [more], until <5704> he come <0935>
whose <0834> right <4941> it is; and I will give <5414> it [him].
28. And thou, son <1121> of man <0120>, prophesy <5012> and say
<0559>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>
concerning <0413> the Ammonites <5984>, and concerning <0413>
their reproach <2781>; even say <0559> thou, The sword <2719>,
the sword <2719> [is] drawn <6605>: for the slaughter <2875> [it
is] furbished <4803>, to consume <0398> because <4616> of the
glittering <1300>:
29 Whiles they see <2372> vanity <7723> unto thee, whiles they
divine <7080> a lie <3576> unto thee, to bring <5414> thee upon
the necks <6677> of [them that are] slain <2491>, of the wicked
<7563>, whose <0834> day <3117> is come <0935>, when <6256>
their iniquity <5771> [shall have] an end <7093>.
30 Shall I cause [it] to return <7725> into his sheath <8593>?
I will judge <8199> thee in the place <4725> where <0834> thou
wast created <1254>, in the land <0776> of thy nativity <4351>.
31 And I will pour <8210> out mine indignation <2195> upon thee,
I will blow <6315> against <5921> thee in the fire <0784> of my
wrath <5678>, and deliver <5414> thee into the hand <3027> of
brutish <1197> men <0582>, [and] skilful <2796> to destroy
<4889>.
32 Thou shalt be for fuel <0402> to the fire <0784>; thy blood
<1818> shall be in the midst <8432> of the land <0776>; thou
shalt be no <3808> [more] remembered <2142>: for I the LORD
<3068> have spoken <1696> [it].
Ezekiel 22
1. Moreover the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto
me, saying <0559>,
2 Now, thou son <1121> of man <0120>, wilt thou judge <8199>,
wilt thou judge <8199> the bloody <1818> city <5892>? yea, thou
shalt shew <3045> her all <3605> her abominations <8441>.
3 Then say <0559> thou, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>, The city <5892> sheddeth <8210> blood <1818>
in the midst <8432> of it, that her time <6256> may come <0935>,
and maketh <6213> idols <1544> against <5921> herself to defile
<2930> herself.
4 Thou art become <0816> guilty <0816> in thy blood <1818> that
thou hast shed <8210>; and hast defiled <2930> thyself in thine
idols <1544> which <0834> thou hast made <6213>; and thou hast
caused thy days <3117> to draw near <7126>, and art come <0935>
[even] unto thy years <8141>: therefore <3651> have I made
<5414> thee a reproach <2781> unto the heathen <1471>, and a
mocking <7048> to all <3605> countries <0776>.
5 [Those that be] near <7138>, and [those that be] far <7350>
from thee, shall mock <7046> thee, [which art] infamous [and]
much <7227> vexed <4103>.
6 Behold <2009>, the princes <5387> of Israel <3478>, every
<0376> one <0376> were in thee to their power <2220> to shed
<8210> blood <1818>.
7 In thee have they set light <7043> by father <1> and mother
<0517>: in the midst <8432> of thee have they dealt <6213> by
oppression <6233> with the stranger <1616>: in thee have they
vexed <3238> the fatherless <3490> and the widow <0490>.
8 Thou hast despised <0959> mine holy <6944> things, and hast
profaned <2490> my sabbaths <7676>.
9 In thee are men <0582> that carry <7400> tales <7400> to shed
<8210> blood <1818>: and in thee they eat <0398> upon the
mountains <2022>: in the midst <8432> of thee they commit <6213>
lewdness <2154>.
10 In thee have they discovered <1540> their fathers <1>'
nakedness <6172>: in thee have they humbled <6031> her that was
set <5079> apart <5079> for pollution <2931>.
11 And one hath committed <6213> abomination <8441> with his
neighbour's <7453> wife <0802>; and another <0376> hath lewdly
<2154> defiled <2930> his daughter <3618> in law <3618>; and
another <0376> in thee hath humbled <6031> his sister <0269>,
his father's <1> daughter <1323>.
12 In thee have they taken <3947> gifts <7810> to shed <8210>
blood <1818>; thou hast taken <3947> usury <5392> and increase
<8635>, and thou hast greedily gained <1214> of thy neighbours
<7453> by extortion <6233>, and hast forgotten <7911> me, saith
<5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
13 Behold <2009>, therefore I have smitten <5221> mine hand
<3079> at <0413> thy dishonest <1215> gain <1214> which <0834>
thou hast made <6213>, and at <5921> thy blood <1818> which
<0834> hath been <1961> in the midst <8432> of thee.
14 Can thine heart <3820> endure <5975>, or can thine hands
<3027> be strong <2388>, in the days <3117> that I shall deal
<6213> with thee? I the LORD <3068> have spoken <1696> [it], and
will do <6213> [it].
15 And I will scatter <6327> thee among the heathen <1471>, and
disperse <2219> thee in the countries <0776>, and will consume
<8552> thy filthiness <2932> out of thee.
16 And thou shalt take thine inheritance <2490> in thyself in
the sight <5869> of the heathen <1471>, and thou shalt know
<3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
17. And the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me,
saying <0559>,
18 Son <1121> of man <0120>, the house <1004> of Israel <3478>
is to me become <1961> dross <5509>: all <3605> they [are] brass
<5178>, and tin <0913>, and iron <1270>, and lead <5777>, in the
midst <8432> of the furnace <3564>; they are [even] the dross
<5509> of silver <3701>.
19 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136>
GOD <3069>; Because <3282> ye are all <3605> become <1961> dross
<5509>, behold <2005>, therefore <3651> I will gather <6908> you
into <0413> the midst <8432> of Jerusalem <3389>.
20 [As] they gather <6910> silver <3701>, and brass <5178>, and
iron <1270>, and lead <5777>, and tin <0913>, into <0413> the
midst <8432> of the furnace <3564>, to blow <5301> the fire
<0784> upon it, to melt <5413> [it]; so <3651> will I gather
<6908> [you] in mine anger <0639> and in my fury <2534>, and I
will leave <3241> [you there], and melt <5413> you.
21 Yea, I will gather <3664> you, and blow <5301> upon you in
the fire <0784> of my wrath <5678>, and ye shall be melted
<5413> in the midst <8432> thereof.
22 As silver <3701> is melted <2046> in the midst <8432> of the
furnace <3564>, so <3651> shall ye be melted <5413> in the midst
<8432> thereof; and ye shall know <3045> that I the LORD <3068>
have poured <8210> out my fury <2534> upon you.
23. And the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me,
saying <0559>,
24 Son <1121> of man <0120>, say <0559> unto her, Thou [art]
the land <0776> that is not cleansed <2891>, nor <3808> rained
<1656> upon in the day <3117> of indignation <2195>.
25 [There is] a conspiracy <7195> of her prophets <5030> in the
midst <8432> thereof, like a roaring <7580> lion <0738> ravening
<2963> the prey <2964>; they have devoured <0398> souls <5315>;
they have taken <3947> the treasure <2633> and precious <3366>
things; they have made her many <7235> widows <0490> in the
midst <8432> thereof.
26 Her priests <3548> have violated <2554> my law <8451>, and
have profaned <2490> mine holy <6944> things: they have put no
<3808> difference between <0996> the holy <6944> and profane
<2455>, neither <3808> have they shewed <3045> [difference]
between <0996> the unclean <2931> and the clean <2889>, and have
hid <5956> their eyes <5869> from my sabbaths <7676>, and I am
profaned <2490> among <8432> them.
27 Her princes <8269> in the midst <7130> thereof [are] like
wolves <2061> ravening <2963> the prey <2964>, to shed <8210>
blood <1818>, [and] to destroy <6> souls <5315>, to get <1214>
dishonest <1215> gain <1214>.
28 And her prophets <5030> have daubed <2902> them with
untempered <8602> [morter], seeing vanity <7723>, and divining
<7080> lies <3576> unto them, saying <0559>, Thus <3541> saith
<0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>, when the LORD <3068> hath not
spoken <1696>.
29 The people <5971> of the land <0776> have used oppression
<6233>, and exercised robbery <1498>, and have vexed <3238> the
poor <6041> and needy <34>: yea, they have oppressed <6231> the
stranger <1616> wrongfully.
30 And I sought <1245> for a man <0376> among them, that should
make <1443> up the hedge <1447>, and stand <5975> in the gap
<6556> before <6440> me for the land <0776>, that I should not
destroy <7843> it: but I found <4672> none <3808>.
31 Therefore have I poured <8210> out mine indignation <2195>
upon them; I have consumed <3615> them with the fire <0784> of
my wrath <5678>: their own way <1870> have I recompensed <5414>
upon their heads <7218>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
Ezekiel 23
1. The word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> again unto me,
saying <0559>,
2 Son <1121> of man <0120>, there were two <8147> women <0802>,
the daughters <1121> of one <0259> mother <0517>:
3 And they committed <2181> whoredoms in Egypt <4714>; they
committed <2181> whoredoms in their youth <5271>: there <8033>
were their breasts <7699> pressed <4600>, and there <8033> they
bruised <6213> the teats <1717> of their virginity <1331>.
4 And the names <8034> of them [were] Aholah <0170> the elder
<1419>, and Aholibah <0172> her sister <0269>: and they were
mine, and they bare <3205> sons <1121> and daughters <1121>.
Thus [were] their names <8034>; Samaria <8111> [is] Aholah
<0170>, and Jerusalem <3389> Aholibah <0172>.
5 And Aholah <0170> played the harlot <2181> when she was mine;
and she doted <5689> on <0413> her lovers <0157>, on <0413> the
Assyrians <0804> [her] neighbours <7138>,
6 [Which were] clothed <3847> with blue <8504>, captains <6346>
and rulers <5461>, all <3605> of them desirable <2531> young
<0970> men, horsemen <6571> riding <7392> upon horses <5483>.
7 Thus she committed <5414> her whoredoms <8457> with them,
with all them [that were] the chosen <4005> men <1121> of
Assyria <0804>, and with all <3605> on whom <0834> she doted
<5689>: with all <3605> their idols <1544> she defiled <2930>
herself.
8 Neither <3808> left <5800> she her whoredoms <8457> [brought]
from Egypt <4714>: for in her youth <5271> they lay <7901> with
her, and they bruised <6213> the breasts <1717> of her virginity
<1331>, and poured <8210> their whoredom <8457> upon her.
9 Wherefore <3651> I have delivered <5414> her into the hand
<3027> of her lovers <0157>, into the hand <3027> of the
Assyrians <0804>, upon whom <0834> she doted <5689>.
10 These <1992> discovered <1540> her nakedness <6172>: they
took <3947> her sons <1121> and her daughters <1121>, and slew
her with the sword <2719>: and she became <1961> famous <8034>
among women <0802>; for they had executed <6213> judgment <8196>
upon her.
11. And when <3588> her sister <0269> Aholibah <0172> saw
<7200> [this], she was more corrupt <7843> in her inordinate
<5691> love <5691> than she, and in her whoredoms <8457> more
than her sister <0269> in [her] whoredoms <2183>.
12 She doted <5689> upon the Assyrians <0804> [her] neighbours
<7138>, captains <6346> and rulers <5461> clothed <3847> most
gorgeously <4358>, horsemen <6571> riding <7392> upon horses
<5483>, all <3605> of them desirable <2531> young <0970> men.
13 Then I saw <7200> that she was defiled <2930>, [that] they
[took] both <8147> one <0259> way <1870>,
14 And [that] she increased <3254> her whoredoms <8457>: for
when she saw <7200> men <0582> pourtrayed <2707> upon the wall
<7023>, the images <6754> of the Chaldeans <3779> pourtrayed
<2710> with vermilion <8350>,
15 Girded <2289> with girdles <0232> upon their loins <4975>,
exceeding <5628> in dyed <2871> attire <2871> upon their heads
<7218>, all <3605> of them princes <7991> to look <4758> to,
after the manner <1823> of the Babylonians of Chaldea <3778>,
the land <0776> of their nativity <4138>:
16 And as soon <4758> as she saw them with her eyes <5869>, she
doted <5689> upon them, and sent <7971> messengers <4397> unto
them into Chaldea <3778>.
17 And the Babylonians came <0935> to her into the bed <4904>
of love <1730>, and they defiled <2930> her with their whoredom
<8457>, and she was polluted <2930> with them, and her mind
<5315> was alienated <3363> from them.
18 So she discovered <1540> her whoredoms <8457>, and
discovered <1540> her nakedness <6172>: then my mind <5315> was
alienated <3363> from her, like as my mind <5315> was alienated
<5361> from her sister <0269>.
19 Yet she multiplied <7235> her whoredoms <8457>, in calling
<2142> to remembrance <2142> the days <3117> of her youth <5271>,
wherein <0834> she had played the harlot <2181> in the land
<0776> of Egypt <4714>.
20 For she doted <5689> upon their paramours <6370>, whose
flesh <1320> [is as] the flesh <1320> of asses <2543>, and whose
issue <2231> [is like] the issue <2231> of horses <5483>.
21 Thus thou calledst <6485> to remembrance <6485> the lewdness
<2154> of thy youth <5271>, in bruising <6213> thy teats <1717>
by the Egyptians <4714> for the paps <7699> of thy youth <5271>.
22. Therefore <3651>, O Aholibah <0172>, thus <3541> saith
<0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Behold <2005>, I will raise
<5782> up thy lovers <0157> against <5921> thee, from whom thy
mind <5315> is alienated <5361>, and I will bring <0935> them
against <5921> thee on every <5437> side <5439>;
23 The Babylonians, and all <3605> the Chaldeans <3779>, Pekod
<6489>, and Shoa <7772>, and Koa <6970>, [and] all <3605> the
Assyrians <0804> with them: all <3605> of them desirable <2531>
young <0970> men, captains <6346> and rulers <5461>, great
<7991> lords <7991> and renowned <7121>, all <3605> of them
riding <7392> upon horses <5483>.
24 And they shall come <0935> against <5921> thee with chariots
<2021>, wagons <7393>, and wheels <1534>, and with an assembly
<6951> of people <5971>, [which] shall set <7760> against <5921>
thee buckler <6793> and shield <4043> and helmet <6959> round
<5439> about: and I will set <5414> judgment <4941> before
<6440> them, and they shall judge <8199> thee according to their
judgments <4941>.
25 And I will set <5414> my jealousy <7068> against thee, and
they shall deal <6213> furiously <2534> with thee: they shall
take <5493> away <5493> thy nose <0639> and thine ears <0241>;
and thy remnant <0319> shall fall <5307> by the sword <2719>:
they shall take <3947> thy sons <1121> and thy daughters <1121>;
and thy residue <0319> shall be devoured <0398> by the fire
<0784>.
26 They shall also strip <6584> thee out of thy clothes <0899>,
and take <3947> away thy fair <8597> jewels <3627>.
27 Thus will I make thy lewdness <2154> to cease <7673> from
thee, and thy whoredom <2184> [brought] from the land <0776> of
Egypt <4714>: so that thou shalt not lift <5375> up thine eyes
<5869> unto them, nor <3808> remember <2142> Egypt <4714> any
more <5750>.
28 For thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>;
Behold <2005>, I will deliver <5414> thee into the hand <3027>
[of them] whom <0834> thou hatest <8130>, into the hand <3027>
[of them] from whom <0834> thy mind <5315> is alienated <5361>:
29 And they shall deal <6213> with thee hatefully <8135>, and
shall take <3947> away all <3605> thy labour <3018>, and shall
leave <5800> thee naked <5903> and bare <6181>: and the
nakedness <6172> of thy whoredoms <2183> shall be discovered
<1540>, both thy lewdness <2154> and thy whoredoms <8457>.
30 I will do <6213> these <0428> [things] unto thee, because
thou hast gone a whoring <2181> after <0310> the heathen <1471>,
[and] because thou art polluted <2930> with their idols <1544>.
31 Thou hast walked <1980> in the way <1870> of thy sister
<0269>; therefore will I give <5414> her cup <3563> into thine
hand <3027>.
32 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Thou
shalt drink <8354> of thy sister's <0269> cup <3563> deep <6013>
and large <7342>: thou shalt be laughed <6712> to scorn and had
in derision <3932>; it containeth <3557> much <4767>.
33 Thou shalt be filled <4390> with drunkenness <7943> and
sorrow <3015>, with the cup <3563> of astonishment <8047> and
desolation <8077>, with the cup <3563> of thy sister <0269>
Samaria <8111>.
34 Thou shalt even drink <8354> it and suck <4680> [it] out,
and thou shalt break <1633> the sherds <2789> thereof, and pluck
<5423> off thine own breasts <7699>: for I have spoken <1696>
[it], saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
35 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136>
GOD <3069>; Because <3282> thou hast forgotten <7911> me, and
cast <7998> me behind <0310> thy back <1458>, therefore bear
<5375> thou also <1571> thy lewdness <2154> and thy whoredoms
<8457>.
36. The LORD <3068> said <0559> moreover unto me; Son <1121> of
man <0120>, wilt thou judge <8199> Aholah <0170> and Aholibah
<0172>? yea, declare <5046> unto them their abominations <8441>;
37 That they have committed <5003> adultery <5003>, and blood
<1818> [is] in their hands <3027>, and with their idols <1544>
have they committed <5003> adultery <5003>, and have also <1571>
caused their sons <1121>, whom <0834> they bare <3205> unto me,
to pass <5674> for them through [the fire], to devour <0402>
[them].
38 Moreover <5750> this <2063> they have done <6213> unto me:
they have defiled <2930> my sanctuary <4720> in the same <1931>
day <3117>, and have profaned <2490> my sabbaths <7676>.
39 For when they had slain <7819> their children <1121> to
their idols <1544>, then they came <0935> the same <1931> day
<3117> into <0413> my sanctuary <4720> to profane <2490> it; and,
lo <2009>, thus <3541> have they done <6213> in the midst
<8432> of mine house <1004>.
40 And furthermore <0637>, that ye have sent <7971> for men
<0582> to come <0935> from far <4801>, unto whom a messenger
<4397> [was] sent <7971>; and, lo <2009>, they came <0935>: for
whom <0834> thou didst wash <7364> thyself, paintedst <3583> thy
eyes <5869>, and deckedst <5710> thyself with ornaments <5716>,
41 And satest <3427> upon a stately <3520> bed <4296>, and a
table <7979> prepared <6186> before <6440> it, whereupon <5921>
thou hast set <7760> mine incense <7004> and mine oil <8081>.
42 And a voice <6963> of a multitude <1995> being at ease
<7961> [was] with her: and with the men <0582> of the common
<7230> sort [were] brought <0935> Sabeans <5433> from the
wilderness <4057>, which put <5414> bracelets <6781> upon their
hands <3027>, and beautiful <8597> crowns <5850> upon their
heads <7218>.
43 Then said <0559> I unto [her that was] old <1087> in
adulteries <5004>, Will they now <6258> commit <2181> whoredoms
<8457> with her, and she [with them]?
44 Yet they went <0935> in unto her, as they go <0935> in unto
a woman <0802> that playeth the harlot <2181>: so <3651> went
<0935> they in unto Aholah <0170> and unto Aholibah <0172>, the
lewd <2154> women <0802>.
45 And the righteous <6662> men <0582>, they shall judge <8199>
them after the manner <4941> of adulteresses <5003>, and after
the manner <4941> of women that shed <8210> blood <1818>;
because <3588> they [are] adulteresses <5003>, and blood <1818>
[is] in their hands <3027>.
46 For thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; I
will bring <5927> up a company <6951> upon them, and will give
<5414> them to be removed <2189> and spoiled <0957>.
47 And the company <6951> shall stone <7275> them with stones
<68>, and dispatch <1254> them with their swords <2719>; they
shall slay <4191> their sons <1121> and their daughters <1121>,
and burn <8313> up their houses <1004> with fire <0784>.
48 Thus will I cause lewdness <2154> to cease <7673> out of the
land <0776>, that all <3605> women <0802> may be taught <3256>
not to do <6213> after <0310> your lewdness <2154>.
49 And they shall recompense <5414> your lewdness <2154> upon
you, and ye shall bear <5375> the sins <2399> of your idols
<1544>: and ye shall know <3045> that I [am] the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>.
Ezekiel 24
1. Again in the ninth <8671> year <8141>, in the tenth <6224>
month <2320>, in the tenth <6218> [day] of the month <2320>, the
word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me, saying
<0559>,
2 Son <1121> of man <0120>, write <3789> thee the name <8034>
of the day <3117>, [even] of this <2088> same <6106> day <3117>:
the king <4428> of Babylon <0894> set <5564> himself against
<0413> Jerusalem <3389> this <2088> same <6106> day <3117>.
3 And utter <4911> a parable <4912> unto the rebellious <4805>
house <1004>, and say <0559> unto them, Thus <3541> saith <0559>
the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Set <8239> on a pot <5518>, set
<8239> [it] on, and also <1571> pour <3332> water <4325> into it:
4 Gather <0622> the pieces <5409> thereof into it, [even] every
<3605> good <2896> piece <5409>, the thigh <3409>, and the
shoulder <3802>; fill <4390> [it] with the choice <4005> bones
<6106>.
5 Take <3947> the choice <4005> of the flock <6629>, and burn
<1754> also <1571> the bones <6106> under <8478> it, [and] make
it boil <7570> well <7571>, and let them seethe <1310> the bones
<6106> of it therein <8432>.
6 Wherefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>; Woe <0188> to the bloody <1818> city <5892>, to the pot
<5518> whose <0834> scum <2457> [is] therein, and whose scum
<2457> is not gone <3318> out of it! bring <3318> it out piece
<5409> by piece <5409>; let no <3808> lot <1486> fall <5307>
upon it.
7 For her blood <1818> is in the midst <8432> of her; she set
<7760> it upon the top <6706> of a rock <5553>; she poured
<8210> it not upon the ground <0776>, to cover <3680> it with
dust <6083>;
8 That it might cause fury <2534> to come <5927> up to take
vengeance <5359>; I have set <5414> her blood <1818> upon the
top <6706> of a rock <5553>, that it should not be covered
<3680>.
9 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>; Woe <0188> to the bloody <1818> city <5892>! I will even
make the pile <4071> for fire great <1431>.
10 Heap <7235> on wood <6086>, kindle <1814> the fire <0784>,
consume <8552> the flesh <1320>, and spice <7543> it well, and
let the bones <6106> be burned <2787>.
11 Then set <5975> it empty <7385> upon the coals <1513>
thereof, that the brass <5178> of it may be hot <3179>, and may
burn <2787>, and [that] the filthiness <2932> of it may be
molten <5413> in it, [that] the scum <2457> of it may be
consumed <8552>.
12 She hath wearied <3811> [herself] with lies <8383>, and her
great <7227> scum <2457> went <3318> not forth <3318> out of her:
her scum <2457> [shall be] in the fire <0784>.
13 In thy filthiness <2932> [is] lewdness <2154>: because
<3282> I have purged <2891> thee, and thou wast not purged
<2891>, thou shalt not be purged <2891> from thy filthiness
<2932> any more <5750>, till <5704> I have caused my fury <2534>
to rest <5117> upon thee.
14 I the LORD <3068> have spoken <1696> [it]: it shall come
<0835> to pass, and I will do <6213> [it]; I will not go <6544>
back <6544>, neither <3808> will I spare <2347>, neither <3808>
will I repent <5162>; according to thy ways <1870>, and
according to thy doings <5949>, shall they judge <8199> thee,
saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
15. Also the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me,
saying <0559>,
16 Son <1121> of man <0120>, behold <2005>, I take <3947> away
from thee the desire <4261> of thine eyes <5869> with a stroke
<4046>: yet neither <3808> shalt thou mourn <5594> nor <3808>
weep <1058>, neither <3808> shall thy tears <1832> run <0935>
down.
17 Forbear <1826> to cry <0602>, make <6213> no <3808> mourning
<60> for the dead <4191>, bind <2280> the tire <6287> of thine
head upon thee, and put <7760> on thy shoes <5275> upon thy feet
<7272>, and cover <5844> not [thy] lips <8222>, and eat <0398>
not the bread <3899> of men <0582>.
18 So I spake <1696> unto the people <5971> in the morning
<1242>: and at even <6153> my wife <0802> died <4191>; and I did
<6213> in the morning <1242> as I was commanded <6680>.
19 And the people <5971> said <0559> unto me, Wilt thou not
tell <5046> us what <4100> these <0428> [things are] to us, that
thou doest <6213> [so]?
20 Then I answered <0559> them, The word <1697> of the LORD
<3068> came <1961> unto me, saying <0559>,
21 Speak <0559> unto the house <1004> of Israel <3478>, Thus
<3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Behold <2005>, I
will profane <2490> my sanctuary <4720>, the excellency <1347>
of your strength <5797>, the desire <4261> of your eyes <5869>,
and that which your soul <5315> pitieth <4263>; and your sons
<1121> and your daughters <1121> whom <0834> ye have left <5800>
shall fall <5307> by the sword <2719>.
22 And ye shall do <6213> as I have done <6213>: ye shall not
cover <5844> [your] lips <8222>, nor <3808> eat <0398> the bread
<3899> of men <0582>.
23 And your tires <6287> [shall be] upon your heads <7218>, and
your shoes <5275> upon your feet <7272>: ye shall not mourn
<5594> nor <3808> weep <1058>; but ye shall pine <4743> away for
your iniquities <5771>, and mourn <5098> one <0376> toward
<0413> another <0250>.
24 Thus Ezekiel <3168> is unto you a sign <4159>: according to
all <3605> that he hath done <6213> shall ye do <6213>: and when
this cometh <0935>, ye shall know <3045> that I [am] the Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>.
25 Also, thou son <1121> of man <0120>, [shall it] not [be] in
the day <3117> when I take <3947> from them their strength
<4581>, the joy <4885> of their glory <8597>, the desire <4261>
of their eyes <5869>, and that whereupon they set <4853> their
minds <5315>, their sons <1121> and their daughters <1121>,
26 [That] he that escapeth <6412> in that day <3117> shall come
<0835> unto thee, to cause [thee] to hear <2045> [it] with
[thine] ears <0241>?
27 In that day <3117> shall thy mouth <6310> be opened <6605>
to him which is escaped <6412>, and thou shalt speak <1696>, and
be no <3808> more <5750> dumb <0481>: and thou shalt be a sign
<4159> unto them; and they shall know <3045> that I [am] the
LORD <3068>.
Ezekiel 25
1. The word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> again unto me,
saying <0559>,
2 Son <1121> of man <0120>, set <7760> thy face <6440> against
<0413> the Ammonites <5984>, and prophesy <5012> against <5921>
them;
3 And say <0559> unto the Ammonites <5984>, Hear <8085> the
word <1697> of the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Thus <3541> saith
<0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Because <3282> thou saidst
<0559>, Aha <0253>, against <0413> my sanctuary <4720>, when
<3588> it was profaned <2490>; and against <0413> the land
<0127> of Israel <3478>, when <3588> it was desolate <8074>; and
against <0413> the house <1004> of Judah <3063>, when <3588>
they went into captivity <1473>;
4 Behold <2005>, therefore <3651> I will deliver <5414> thee to
the men <1121> of the east <6924> for a possession <4181>, and
they shall set <3427> their palaces <2918> in thee, and make
<5414> their dwellings <4908> in thee: they shall eat <0398> thy
fruit <6529>, and they shall drink <8354> thy milk <2461>.
5 And I will make <5414> Rabbah <7237> a stable <5116> for
camels <1581>, and the Ammonites <5984> a couchingplace <4769>
for flocks <6629>: and ye shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD
<3068>.
6 For thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>;
Because <3282> thou hast clapped <4222> [thine] hands <3027>,
and stamped <7554> with the feet <7272>, and rejoiced <8055> in
heart <5315> with all <3605> thy despite <7589> against <0413>
the land <0127> of Israel <3478>;
7 Behold <2005>, therefore <3651> I will stretch <5186> out
mine hand <3027> upon thee, and will deliver <5414> thee for a
spoil <0957> to the heathen <1471>; and I will cut <3772> thee
off from the people <5971>, and I will cause thee to perish <6>
out of the countries <0776>: I will destroy <8045> thee; and
thou shalt know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
8. Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Because
<3282> that Moab <4124> and Seir <8165> do say <0559>, Behold
<2009>, the house <1004> of Judah <3063> [is] like unto all
<3605> the heathen <1471>;
9 Therefore <3651>, behold <2005>, I will open <6605> the side
<3802> of Moab <4124> from the cities <5892>, from his cities
<5892> [which are] on his frontiers <7097>, the glory <6643> of
the country <0776>, Bethjeshimoth <1020>, Baalmeon <1186>, and
Kiriathaim <7156>,
10 Unto the men <1121> of the east <6924> with the Ammonites
<5984>, and will give <5414> them in possession <4181>, that the
Ammonites <5984> may not be remembered <2142> among the nations
<1471>.
11 And I will execute <6213> judgments <8201> upon Moab <4124>;
and they shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
12 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Because
<3282> that Edom <0123> hath dealt <6213> against the house
<1004> of Judah <3063> by taking vengeance <5359>, and hath
greatly offended <0816>, and revenged <5358> himself upon them;
13 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136>
GOD <3069>; I will also stretch <5186> out mine hand <3027> upon
Edom <0123>, and will cut <3772> off man <0120> and beast <0929>
from it; and I will make <5414> it desolate <2723> from Teman
<8487>; and they of Dedan <1719> shall fall <5307> by the sword
<2719>.
14 And I will lay <5414> my vengeance <5360> upon Edom <0123>
by rrrrrrrrrrthe hand <3027> of my people <5971> Israel <3478>:
and they shall do <6213> in Edom <0123> according to mine anger
<0639> and according to my fury <2534>; and they shall know
<3045> my vengeance <5360>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>.
15 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Because
<3282> the Philistines <6430> have dealt <6213> by revenge
<5360>, and have taken vengeance <5359> with a despiteful <7589>
heart <5315>, to destroy <4889> [it] for the old <5769> hatred
<0342>;
16 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136>
GOD <3069>; Behold <2005>, I will stretch <5186> out mine hand
<3027> upon the Philistines <6430>, and I will cut <3772> off
the Cherethims <3774>, and destroy <9> the remnant <7611> of the
sea <3220> coast <2348>.
17 And I will execute <6213> great <1419> vengeance <5360> upon
them with furious <2534> rebukes <8433>; and they shall know
<3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>, when I shall lay <5414> my
vengeance <5360> upon them.
Ezekiel 26
1. And it came <1961> to pass in the eleventh year <8141>, in
the first <0259> [day] of the month <2320>, [that] the word
<1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me, saying <0559>,
2 Son <1121> of man <0120>, because <3282> that Tyrus <6865>
hath said <0559> against <5921> Jerusalem <3389>, Aha <0253>,
she is broken <7665> [that was] the gates <1817> of the people
<5971>: she is turned <5437> unto me: I shall be replenished
<4390>, [now] she is laid waste <2717>:
3 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>; Behold <2005>, I [am] against <5921> thee, O Tyrus
<6865>, and will cause many <7227> nations <1471> to come <5927>
up against <5921> thee, as the sea <3220> causeth his waves
<1530> to come <5927> up.
4 And they shall destroy <7843> the walls <2346> of Tyrus
<6865>, and break <2040> down <2040> her towers <4026>: I will
also scrape <5500> her dust <6083> from her, and make <5414> her
like the top <6706> of a rock <5553>.
5 It shall be [a place for] the spreading <4894> of nets <2764>
in the midst <8432> of the sea <3220>: for I have spoken <1696>
[it], saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>: and it shall
become <1961> a spoil <0957> to the nations <1471>.
6 And her daughters <1121> which <0834> [are] in the field
<7704> shall be slain <2026> by the sword <2719>; and they shall
know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
7 For thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>;
Behold <2005>, I will bring <0935> upon Tyrus <6865>
Nebuchadrezzar <5019> king <4428> of Babylon <0894>, a king
<4428> of kings <4428>, from the north <6828>, with horses
<5483>, and with chariots <7393>, and with horsemen <6571>, and
companies <6951>, and much <7227> people <5971>.
8 He shall slay <4191> with the sword <2719> thy daughters
<1121> in the field <7704>: and he shall make <5414> a fort
<1785> against <5921> thee, and cast <8210> a mount <5550>
against <5921> thee, and lift <6965> up the buckler <6793>
against <5921> thee.
9 And he shall set <5414> engines <4239> of war <6904> against
thy walls <2346>, and with his axes <2719> he shall break <5422>
down <5422> thy towers <4026>.
10 By reason of the abundance <8229> of his horses <5483> their
dust <80> shall cover <3680> thee: thy walls <2346> shall shake
<7493> at the noise <6963> of the horsemen <6571>, and of the
wheels <1534>, and of the chariots <7393>, when he shall enter
<0935> into thy gates <8179>, as men enter <0935> into a city
<5892> wherein is made a breach <1234>.
11 With the hoofs <6541> of his horses <5483> shall he tread
<7429> down all <3605> thy streets <2351>: he shall slay <4191>
thy people <5971> by the sword <2719>, and thy strong <5797>
garrisons <4676> shall go <3381> down <3381> to the ground
<0776>.
12 And they shall make <5414> a spoil <7997> of thy riches
<2428>, and make a prey <0962> of thy merchandise <7404>: and
they shall break <2040> down <2040> thy walls <2346>, and
destroy <5422> thy pleasant <2532> houses <1004>: and they shall
lay <7760> thy stones <68> and thy timber <6086> and thy dust
<6083> in the midst <8432> of the water <4325>.
13 And I will cause the noise <1995> of thy songs <7892> to
cease <7673>; and the sound <6963> of thy harps <3658> shall be
no <3808> more <5750> heard <8085>.
14 And I will make thee like the top <6706> of a rock <5558>:
thou shalt be [a place] to spread <4894> nets <2764> upon; thou
shalt be built <1129> no <3808> more <5750>: for I the LORD
<3068> have spoken <1696> [it], saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>.
15. Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069> to
Tyrus <6865>; Shall not the isles <0339> shake <7493> at the
sound <6963> of thy fall <4658>, when the wounded <2491> cry
<0602>, when the slaughter <2027> is made in the midst <8432> of
thee?
16 Then all <3605> the princes <5387> of the sea <3220> shall
come <3381> down <3381> from their thrones <3678>, and lay
<5493> away <5493> their robes <4598>, and put <6584> off their
broidered <7553> garments <0899>: they shall clothe <3847>
themselves with trembling <2731>; they shall sit <3427> upon the
ground <0776>, and shall tremble <2729> at [every] moment <7281>,
and be astonished <8074> at thee.
17 And they shall take <5375> up a lamentation <7015> for thee,
and say <0559> to thee, How <0349> art thou destroyed <6>, [that
wast] inhabited <3427> of seafaring <3220> men, the renowned
<1984> city <5892>, which <0834> wast strong <2389> in the sea
<3220>, she and her inhabitants <3427>, which <0834> cause
<5414> their terror <2851> [to be] on all <3605> that haunt
<3427> it!
18 Now <6258> shall the isles <0339> tremble <2729> in the day
<3117> of thy fall <4658>; yea, the isles <0339> that [are] in
the sea <3220> shall be troubled <0926> at thy departure <3318>.
19 For thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>;
When I shall make <5414> thee a desolate <2717> city <5892>,
like the cities <5892> that are not inhabited <3427>; when I
shall bring <5927> up the deep <8415> upon thee, and great
<7227> waters <4325> shall cover <3680> thee;
20 When I shall bring <3381> thee down <3381> with them that
descend <3381> into the pit <0953>, with the people <5971> of
old <5769> time, and shall set <3427> thee in the low <8482>
parts of the earth <0776>, in places desolate <2723> of old
<5769>, with them that go <3381> down <3381> to the pit <0953>,
that thou be not inhabited <3427>; and I shall set <5414> glory
<6643> in the land <0776> of the living <2416>;
21 I will make <5414> thee a terror <1091>, and thou [shalt be]
no <0369> [more]: though thou be sought <1245> for, yet shalt
thou never be found <4672> again <5750>, saith <5001> the Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>.
Ezekiel 27
1. The word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> again unto me,
saying <0559>,
2 Now, thou son <1121> of man <0120>, take <5375> up a
lamentation <7015> for Tyrus <6865>;
3 And say <0559> unto Tyrus <6865>, O thou that art situate
<3427> at <5921> the entry <3996> of the sea <3220>, [which art]
a merchant <7402> of the people <5971> for many <7227> isles
<0339>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; O
Tyrus <6865>, thou hast said <0559>, I [am] of perfect <3632>
beauty <3308>.
4 Thy borders <1366> [are] in the midst <3820> of the seas
<3220>, thy builders <1129> have perfected <3634> thy beauty
<3308>.
5 They have made <1129> all <3605> thy [ship] boards <3871> of
fir <1265> trees of Senir <8149>: they have taken <3947> cedars
<0730> from Lebanon <3844> to make <6213> masts <8650> for thee.
6 [Of] the oaks <0437> of Bashan <1316> have they made <6213>
thine oars <4880>; the company <1323> of the Ashurites <0843>
have made <6213> thy benches <7175> [of] ivory <8127>, [brought]
out of the isles <0339> of Chittim <3794>.
7 Fine linen <8336> with broidered <7553> work <7553> from
Egypt <4714> was that which thou spreadest <4666> forth to be
thy sail <5251>; blue <8504> and purple <0713> from the isles
<0339> of Elishah <0473> was that which covered <4374> thee.
8 The inhabitants <3427> of Zidon <6721> and Arvad <0719> were
thy mariners <7751>: thy wise <2450> [men], O Tyrus <6865>,
[that] were in thee, were thy pilots <2259>.
9 The ancients <2204> of Gebal <1381> and the wise <2450> [men]
thereof were in thee thy calkers: all <3605> the ships <0591> of
the sea <3220> with their mariners <4419> were in thee to occupy
<6148> thy merchandise <4627>.
10 They of Persia <6539> and of Lud <3865> and of Phut <6316>
were in thine army <2428>, thy men <0582> of war <4421>: they
hanged <8518> the shield <4043> and helmet <3553> in thee; they
set <5414> forth thy comeliness <1926>.
11 The men <1121> of Arvad <0719> with thine army <2428> [were]
upon thy walls <2346> round <5439> about, and the Gammadims
<1575> were in thy towers <4026>: they hanged <8518> their
shields <7982> upon thy walls <2346> round <5439> about; they
have made <6213> thy beauty <3308> perfect <3634>.
12 Tarshish <8659> [was] thy merchant <5503> by reason of the
multitude <7230> of all <3605> [kind of] riches <1952>; with
silver <3701>, iron <1270>, tin <0913>, and lead <5777>, they
traded <5414> in thy fairs <5801>.

men <0120> and vessels <3627> of brass <5178> in thy market
<4627>.

hand <3027>: they brought <7725> thee [for] a present <0814>
horns <7161> of ivory <8127> and ebony <1894>.
16 Syria <0758> [was] thy merchant <5503> by reason of the
multitude <7230> of the wares <4639> of thy making <4639>: they
occupied <5414> in thy fairs <5801> with emeralds <5306>, purple
<0713>, and broidered <7553> work <7553>, and fine linen <0948>,

multitude <7230> of all <3605> riches <1952>; in the wine <3196>
of Helbon <2463>, and white <6713> wool <6785>.
19 Dan <1835> also and Javan <3120> going <0235> to and fro
<0235> occupied <5414> in thy fairs <5801>: bright <6219> iron
<1270>, cassia <6916>, and calamus <7070>, were in thy market
<4627>.
20 Dedan <1719> [was] thy merchant <7402> in precious <2667>
clothes <0899> for chariots <7396>.
21 Arabia <6152>, and all <3605> the princes <5387> of Kedar
<6938>, they occupied <5503> with thee in lambs <3733>, and rams
<0352>, and goats <6260>: in these [were they] thy merchants
<5503>.
22 The merchants <7402> of Sheba <7614> and Raamah <7484>, they
[were] thy merchants <7402>: they occupied <5414> in thy fairs
<5801> with chief <7218> of all <3605> spices <1314>, and with
all <3605> precious <3368> stones <68>, and gold <2091>.
23 Haran <2771>, and Canneh <3656>, and Eden <5731>, the
merchants <7402> of Sheba <7614>, Asshur <0804>, [and] Chilmad
<3638>, [were] thy merchants <7402>.
24 These <1992> [were] thy merchants <7402> in all <3605> sorts
<4360> [of things], in blue <8504> clothes <1545>, and broidered
<7553> work <7553>, and in chests <1595> of rich apparel <1264>,
bound <2280> with cords <2256>, and made of cedar <0729>, among
thy merchandise <4819>.
25 The ships <0591> of Tarshish <8659> did sing <7788> of thee
in thy market <4627>: and thou wast replenished <4390>, and made
very <3966> glorious <3519> in the midst <3820> of the seas
<3220>.
26. Thy rowers <7751> have brought <0935> thee into great
<7227> waters <4325>: the east <6921> wind <7307> hath broken
<7665> thee in the midst <3820> of the seas <3220>.
27 Thy riches <1952>, and thy fairs <5801>, thy merchandise
<4627>, thy mariners <4419>, and thy pilots <2259>, thy calkers,
and the occupiers <6148> of thy merchandise <4267>, and all
<3605> thy men <0582> of war <4421>, that [are] in thee, and in
all <3605> thy company <6951> which <0834> [is] in the midst
<8432> of thee, shall fall <5307> into the midst <3820> of the
seas <3220> in the day <3117> of thy ruin <4658>.
28 The suburbs <4054> shall shake <7493> at the sound <6963> of
the cry <2201> of thy pilots <2259>.
29 And all <3605> that handle <8610> the oar <4880>, the
mariners <4419>, [and] all <3605> the pilots <2259> of the sea
<3220>, shall come <3381> down <3381> from their ships <0591>,
they shall stand <5975> upon the land <0776>;
30 And shall cause their voice <6963> to be heard <8085>
against <5921> thee, and shall cry <2199> bitterly <4751>, and
shall cast <5927> up dust <6083> upon their heads <7218>, they
shall wallow <6428> themselves in the ashes <0665>:
31 And they shall make themselves utterly bald <7139> for thee,
and gird <2296> them with sackcloth <8242>, and they shall weep
<1058> for thee with bitterness <4751> of heart <5315> [and]
bitter <4751> wailing <4553>.
32 And in their wailing <5204> they shall take <5375> up a
lamentation <7015> for thee, and lament <6969> over <5921> thee,
[saying], What <4100> [city is] like Tyrus <6865>, like the
destroyed <1822> in the midst <8432> of the sea <3220>?
33 When thy wares <5801> went <3318> forth <3318> out of the
seas <3220>, thou filledst <7646> many <7227> people <5971>;
thou didst enrich <6238> the kings <4428> of the earth <0776>
with the multitude <7230> of thy riches <6239> and of thy
merchandise <4627>.
34 In the time <6256> [when] thou shalt be broken <7665> by the
seas <3220> in the depths <4615> of the waters <4325> thy
merchandise <4627> and all <3605> thy company <6951> in the
midst <8432> of thee shall fall <5307>.
35 All <3605> the inhabitants <3427> of the isles <0339> shall
be astonished <8074> at <5921> thee, and their kings <4428>
shall be sore <8178> afraid <8175>, they shall be troubled
<7481> in [their] countenance <6440>.
36 The merchants <5503> among the people <5971> shall hiss
<8319> at <5921> thee; thou shalt be a terror <1091>, and never
[shalt be] any more.
Ezekiel 28
1. The word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> again unto me,
saying <0559>,
2 Son <1121> of man <0120>, say <0559> unto the prince <5057>
of Tyrus <6865>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>; Because <3282> thine heart <3820> [is] lifted <1361> up,
and thou hast said <0559>, I [am] a God <0410>, I sit <3427>
[in] the seat <4186> of God <0430>, in the midst <3820> of the
seas <3220>; yet thou [art] a man <0120>, and not God <0410>,
though thou set <5414> thine heart <3820> as the heart <3820> of
God <0430>:
3 Behold <2009>, thou [art] wiser <2450> than Daniel <1840>;
there is no <3808> secret <5640> that they can hide <6004> from
thee:
4 With thy wisdom <2451> and with thine understanding <8394>
thou hast gotten <6213> thee riches <2428>, and hast gotten
<6213> gold <2091> and silver <3701> into thy treasures <0214>:
5 By thy great <7230> wisdom <2451> [and] by thy traffick
<7404> hast thou increased <7235> thy riches <2428>, and thine
heart <3824> is lifted <1361> up because of thy riches <2428>:
6 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>; Because <3282> thou hast set <5414> thine heart <3820>
as the heart <3820> of God <0430>;
7 Behold <2005>, therefore <3651> I will bring <0935> strangers
<2114> upon thee, the terrible <6184> of the nations <1471>: and
they shall draw <7324> their swords <2719> against <5921> the
beauty <3308> of thy wisdom <2451>, and they shall defile <2490>
thy brightness <3314>.
8 They shall bring <3381> thee down <3381> to the pit <7845>,
and thou shalt die <4191> the deaths <4463> of [them that are]
slain <2491> in the midst <3820> of the seas <3220>.
9 Wilt thou yet <0559> say <0559> before <6440> him that
slayeth <2026> thee, I [am] God <0430>? but thou [shalt be] a
man <0120>, and no <3808> God <0410>, in the hand <3027> of him
that slayeth <2490> thee.
10 Thou shalt die <4191> the deaths <4194> of the uncircumcised
<6189> by the hand <3027> of strangers <2114>: for I have spoken
<1696> [it], saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
11. Moreover the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961>
unto me, saying <0559>,
12 Son <1121> of man <0120>, take <5375> up a lamentation
<7015> upon the king <4428> of Tyrus <6865>, and say <0559> unto
him, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Thou
sealest <2856> up the sum <8508>, full <4392> of wisdom <2451>,
and perfect <3632> in beauty <3308>.
13 Thou hast been <1961> in Eden <5731> the garden <1588> of
God <0430>; every <3605> precious <3368> stone <68> [was] thy
covering <4540>, the sardius <0124>, topaz <6357>, and the
diamond <3095>, the beryl <8658>, the onyx <7718>, and the
jasper <3471>, the sapphire <5601>, the emerald <5306>, and the
carbuncle <1304>, and gold <2091>: the workmanship <4399> of thy
tabrets <8596> and of thy pipes <5345> was prepared <3559> in
thee in the day <3117> that thou wast created <1254>.
14 Thou [art] the anointed <4473> cherub <3742> that covereth
<5526>; and I have set <5414> thee [so]: thou wast <1961> upon
the holy <6944> mountain <2022> of God <0430>; thou hast walked
<1980> up and down in the midst <8432> of the stones <68> of
fire <0784>.
15 Thou [wast] perfect <8549> in thy ways <1870> from the day
<3117> that thou wast created <1254>, till <5704> iniquity
<5766> was found <4672> in thee.
16 By the multitude <7230> of thy merchandise <7404> they have
filled <4390> the midst <8432> of thee with violence <2555>, and
thou hast sinned <2398>: therefore I will cast <2490> thee as
profane <2490> out of the mountain <2022> of God <0430>: and I
will destroy <6> thee, O covering <5526> cherub <3742>, from the
midst <8432> of the stones <68> of fire <0784>.
17 Thine heart <3820> was lifted <1361> up because of thy
beauty <3308>, thou hast corrupted <7843> thy wisdom <2451> by
reason <5921> of thy brightness <3314>: I will cast <7993> thee
to the ground <0776>, I will lay <5414> thee before <6440> kings
<4428>, that they may behold <7200> thee.
18 Thou hast defiled <2490> thy sanctuaries <4720> by the
multitude <7230> of thine iniquities <5771>, by the iniquity
<5766> of thy traffick <7404>; therefore will I bring <3318>
forth <3318> a fire <0784> from the midst <8432> of thee, it
shall devour <0398> thee, and I will bring <5414> thee to ashes
<0665> upon the earth <0776> in the sight <5869> of all <3605>
them that behold <7200> thee.
19 All <3605> they that know <3045> thee among the people
<5971> shall be astonished <8074> at <5921> thee: thou shalt be
a terror <1091>, and never [shalt] thou [be] any more.
20. Again the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto
me, saying <0559>,
21 Son <1121> of man <0120>, set <7760> thy face <6440> against
<5921> Zidon <6721>, and prophesy <5012> against <5921> it,
22 And say <0559>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>; Behold <2005>, I [am] against <5921> thee, O Zidon
<6721>; and I will be glorified <3513> in the midst <8432> of
thee: and they shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>,
when I shall have executed <6213> judgments <8201> in her, and
shall be sanctified <6942> in her.
23 For I will send <7971> into her pestilence <1698>, and blood
<1818> into her streets <7339>; and the wounded <2491> shall be
judged <5307> in the midst <8432> of her by the sword <2719>
upon her on every <5437> side <5439>; and they shall know <3045>
that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
24 And there shall be no <3808> more <5750> a pricking <3992>
brier <5544> unto the house <1004> of Israel <3478>, nor [any]
grieving <3510> thorn <6975> of all <3605> [that are] round
<5439> about them, that despised <7590> them; and they shall
know <3045> that I [am] the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
25 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; When I
shall have gathered <6908> the house <1004> of Israel <3478>
from the people <5971> among whom <0834> they are scattered
<6327>, and shall be sanctified <6942> in them in the sight
<5869> of the heathen <1471>, then shall they dwell <3427> in
their land <0127> that I have given <5414> to my servant <5650>
Jacob <3290>.
26 And they shall dwell <3427> safely <0983> therein <5921>,
and shall build <1129> houses <1004>, and plant <5193> vineyards
<3754>; yea, they shall dwell <3427> with confidence <0983>,
when I have executed <6213> judgments <8201> upon all <3605>
those that despise <7590> them round <5439> about them; and they
shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068> their God <0430>.
Ezekiel 29
1. In the tenth <6224> year <8141>, in the tenth <6224> [month],
in the twelfth [day] of the month <2320>, the word <1697> of
the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me, saying <0559>,
2 Son <1121> of man <0120>, set <7760> thy face <6440> against
<5921> Pharaoh <6547> king <4428> of Egypt <4714>, and prophesy
<5012> against <5921> him, and against <5921> all <3605> Egypt
<4714>:
3 Speak <1696>, and say <0559>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the
Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Behold <2005>, I [am] against <5921>
thee, Pharaoh <6547> king <4428> of Egypt <4714>, the great
<1419> dragon <8577> that lieth <6437> in the midst <8432> of
his rivers <2975>, which hath said <0559>, My river <2975> [is]
mine own, and I have made <6213> [it] for myself.
4 But I will put <5414> hooks <2397> in thy jaws <3895>, and I
will cause the fish <1710> of thy rivers <2975> to stick <1692>
unto thy scales <7193>, and I will bring <5927> thee up out of
the midst <8432> of thy rivers <2975>, and all <3605> the fish
<1710> of thy rivers <2975> shall stick <1692> unto thy scales
<7193>.
5 And I will leave <5203> thee [thrown] into the wilderness
<4057>, thee and all <3605> the fish <1710> of thy rivers <2975>:
thou shalt fall <5307> upon the open <6440> fields <7704>; thou
shalt not be brought <0622> together, nor <3808> gathered <6908>:
I have given <5414> thee for meat <0402> to the beasts <2416>
of the field <0776> and to the fowls <5775> of the heaven <8064>.
6 And all <3605> the inhabitants <3427> of Egypt <4714> shall
know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>, because <3282> they
have been <1961> a staff <4938> of reed <7070> to the house
<1004> of Israel <3478>.
7 When they took <8610> hold <8610> of thee by thy hand <3709>,
thou didst break <7533>, and rend <1234> all <3605> their
shoulder <3802>: and when they leaned <8172> upon thee, thou
brakest <7665>, and madest all <3605> their loins <4975> to be
at a stand <5976>.
8. Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136>
GOD <3069>; Behold <2005>, I will bring <0935> a sword <2719>
upon thee, and cut <3772> off man <0120> and beast <0929> out of
thee.
9 And the land <0776> of Egypt <4714> shall be desolate <8077>
and waste <2723>; and they shall know <3045> that I [am] the
LORD <3068>: because <3282> he hath said <0559>, The river
<2975> [is] mine, and I have made <6213> [it].
10 Behold <2005>, therefore <3651> I [am] against <0413> thee,
and against <0413> thy rivers <2975>, and I will make <5414> the
land <0776> of Egypt <4714> utterly waste <2723> [and] desolate
<8077>, from the tower <4024> of Syene <5482> even unto the
border <1366> of Ethiopia <3568>.
11 No <3808> foot <7272> of man <0120> shall pass <5674>
through it, nor <3808> foot <7272> of beast <0929> shall pass
<5674> through it, neither <3808> shall it be inhabited <3427>
forty <0705> years <8141>.
12 And I will make <5414> the land <0776> of Egypt <4714>
desolate <8077> in the midst <8432> of the countries <0776>
[that are] desolate <8074>, and her cities <5892> among <8432>
the cities <5892> [that are] laid waste <2717> shall be desolate
<8077> forty <0705> years <8141>: and I will scatter <6327> the
Egyptians <4714> among the nations <1471>, and will disperse
<2219> them through the countries <0776>.
13 Yet <3588> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>; At the end <7093> of forty <0705> years <8141> will I
gather <6908> the Egyptians <4714> from the people <5971>
whither they were scattered <6327>:
14 And I will bring <7725> again <7725> the captivity <7622> of
Egypt <4714>, and will cause them to return <7725> [into] the
land <0776> of Pathros <6624>, into <5921> the land <0776> of
their habitation <4351>; and they shall be there <8033> a base
<8217> kingdom <4467>.
15 It shall be the basest <8217> of the kingdoms <4467>;
neither <3808> shall it exalt <5375> itself any more <5750>
above <5921> the nations <1471>: for I will diminish <4591> them,
that they shall no <3808> more rule <7287> over <5921> the
nations <1471>.
16 And it shall be no <3808> more <5750> the confidence <4009>
of the house <1004> of Israel <3478>, which bringeth <2142>
[their] iniquity <5771> to remembrance <2142>, when <3588> they
shall look <6437> after <0310> them: but they shall know <3045>
that I [am] the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
17. And it came <1961> to pass in the seven <7651> and
twentieth <6242> year <8141>, in the first <7223> [month], in
the first <0259> [day] of the month <2320>, the word <1697> of
the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me, saying <0559>,
18 Son <1121> of man <0120>, Nebuchadrezzar <5019> king <4428>
of Babylon <0894> caused his army <2428> to serve <5647> a great
<1419> service <5656> against <0413> Tyrus <6865>: every <3605>
head <7218> [was] made bald <7139>, and every <3605> shoulder
<3802> [was] peeled <4803>: yet had <1961> he no <3808> wages
<7939>, nor his army <2428>, for Tyrus <6865>, for the service
<5656> that he had served <5647> against <5921> it:
19 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136>
GOD <3069>; Behold <2005>, I will give <5414> the land <0776> of
Egypt <4714> unto Nebuchadrezzar <5019> king <4428> of Babylon
<0894>; and he shall take <5375> her multitude <1995>, and take
<7997> her spoil <7997>, and take <0962> her prey <0957>; and it
shall be the wages <7939> for his army <2428>.
20 I have given <5414> him the land <0776> of Egypt <4714>
[for] his labour <6468> wherewith <0834> he served <5647>
against it, because <0834> they wrought <6213> for me, saith
<5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
21 In that day <3117> will I cause the horn <7161> of the house
<1004> of Israel <3478> to bud <6779> forth, and I will give
<5414> thee the opening <6610> of the mouth <6310> in the midst
<8432> of them; and they shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD
<3068>.
Ezekiel 30
1. The word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> again unto me,
saying <0559>,
2 Son <1121> of man <0120>, prophesy <5012> and say <0559>,
Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Howl <3213>
ye, Woe <1929> worth the day <3117>!
3 For the day <3117> [is] near <7138>, even the day <3117> of
the LORD <3068> [is] near <7138>, a cloudy <6051> day <3117>; it
shall be the time <6256> of the heathen <1471>.
4 And the sword <2719> shall come <0935> upon Egypt <4714>, and
great pain <2479> shall be in Ethiopia <3568>, when the slain
<2491> shall fall <5307> in Egypt <4714>, and they shall take
<3947> away her multitude <1995>, and her foundations <3247>
shall be broken <2040> down <2040>.
5 Ethiopia <3568>, and Libya <6316>, and Lydia <3865>, and all
<3605> the mingled <6154> people, and Chub <3552>, and the men
<1121> of the land <0776> that is in league <1285>, shall fall
<5307> with them by the sword <2719>.
6 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the LORD <3068>; They also that
uphold <5564> Egypt <4714> shall fall <5307>; and the pride
<1347> of her power <5797> shall come <3381> down <3381>: from
the tower <4024> of Syene <5482> shall they fall <5307> in it by
the sword <2719>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
7 And they shall be desolate <8074> in the midst <8432> of the
countries <0776> [that are] desolate <8074>, and her cities
<5892> shall be in the midst <8432> of the cities <5892> [that
are] wasted <2717>.
8 And they shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>, when
I have set <5414> a fire <0784> in Egypt <4714>, and [when] all
<3605> her helpers <5826> shall be destroyed <7665>.
9 In that day <3117> shall messengers <4397> go <3318> forth
<3318> from me in ships <6716> to make the careless <0983>
Ethiopians <3569> afraid <2729>, and great pain <2479> shall
come <1961> upon them, as in the day <3117> of Egypt <4714>: for,
lo <2009>, it cometh <0935>.
10 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; I will
also make the multitude <1995> of Egypt <4714> to cease <7673>
by the hand <3027> of Nebuchadrezzar <5019> king <4428> of
Babylon <0894>.
11 He and his people <5971> with him, the terrible <6184> of
the nations <1471>, shall be brought <0935> to destroy <7843>
the land <0776>: and they shall draw <7324> their swords <2719>
against <5921> Egypt <4714>, and fill <4390> the land <0776>
with the slain <2491>.
12 And I will make the rivers <2975> dry <2724>, and sell
<4376> the land <0776> into the hand <3027> of the wicked <7451>:
and I will make the land <0776> waste <8074>, and all <4393>
that is therein <4393>, by the hand <3027> of strangers <2114>:
I the LORD <3068> have spoken <1696> [it].
13 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; I will
also destroy <6> the idols <1544>, and I will cause [their]
images <0457> to cease <7673> out of Noph <5297>; and there
shall be no <3808> more <5750> a prince <5387> of the land
<0776> of Egypt <4714>: and I will put <5414> a fear <3374> in
the land <0776> of Egypt <4714>.
14 And I will make Pathros <6624> desolate <8074>, and will set
<5414> fire <0784> in Zoan <6814>, and will execute <6213>
judgments <8201> in No.
15 And I will pour <8210> my fury <2534> upon Sin <5512>, the
strength <4581> of Egypt <4714>; and I will cut <3772> off the
multitude <1995> of No.
16 And I will set <5414> fire <0784> in Egypt <4714>: Sin
<5512> shall have great <2342> pain <2342>, and No shall be rent
<1234> asunder, and Noph <5297> [shall have] distresses <6862>
daily <3119>.
17 The young <0970> men of Aven <0206> and of Pibeseth <6364>
shall fall <5307> by the sword <2719>: and these <2007> [cities]
shall go <3212> into captivity <7628>.
18 At Tehaphnehes <8471> also the day <3117> shall be darkened
<2821>, when I shall break <7665> there <8033> the yokes <4133>
of Egypt <4714>: and the pomp <1347> of her strength <5797>
shall cease <7673> in her: as for her, a cloud <6051> shall
cover <3680> her, and her daughters <1121> shall go <3212> into
captivity <7628>.
19 Thus will I execute <6213> judgments <8201> in Egypt <4714>:
and they shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
20. And it came <1961> to pass in the eleventh year <8141>, in
the first <7223> [month <2320>], in the seventh <7651> [day] of
the month <2320>, [that] the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came
<1961> unto me, saying <0559>,
21 Son <1121> of man <0120>, I have broken <7665> the arm
<2220> of Pharaoh <6547> king <4428> of Egypt <4714>; and, lo
<2009>, it shall not be bound <2280> up to be healed, to put
<7760> a roller <2848> to bind <2280> it, to make it strong
<2388> to hold <8610> the sword <2719>.
22 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136>
GOD <3069>; Behold <2005>, I [am] against <0413> Pharaoh <6547>
king <4428> of Egypt <4714>, and will break <7665> his arms
<2220>, the strong <2389>, and that which was broken <7665>; and
I will cause the sword <2719> to fall <5307> out of his hand
<3027>.
23 And I will scatter <6327> the Egyptians <4714> among the
nations <1471>, and will disperse <2219> them through the
countries <0776>.
24 And I will strengthen <2388> the arms <2220> of the king
<4428> of Babylon <0894>, and put <5414> my sword <2719> in his
hand <3027>: but I will break <7665> Pharaoh's <6547> arms
<2220>, and he shall groan <5008> before <6440> him with the
groanings <5009> of a deadly wounded <2491> [man].
25 But I will strengthen <2388> the arms <2220> of the king
<4428> of Babylon <0894>, and the arms <2220> of Pharaoh <6547>
shall fall <5307> down; and they shall know <3045> that I [am]
the LORD <3068>, when I shall put <5414> my sword <2719> into
the hand <3027> of the king <4428> of Babylon <0894>, and he
shall stretch <5186> it out upon the land <0776> of Egypt <4714>.
26 And I will scatter <6327> the Egyptians <4714> among the
nations <1471>, and disperse <2219> them among the countries
<0776>; and they shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
Ezekiel 31
1. And it came <1961> to pass in the eleventh year <8141>, in
the third <7992> [month], in the first <0259> [day] of the month
<2320>, [that] the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961>
unto me, saying <0559>,
2 Son <1121> of man <0120>, speak <0559> unto Pharaoh <6547>
king <4428> of Egypt <4714>, and to his multitude <1995>; Whom
art thou like <1819> in thy greatness <1433>?
3 Behold <2009>, the Assyrian <0804> [was] a cedar <0730> in
Lebanon <3844> with fair <3303> branches <6057>, and with a
shadowing <6751> shroud <2793>, and of an high <1362> stature
<6967>; and his top <6788> was among <0996> the thick <5688>
boughs <5688>.
4 The waters <4325> made him great <1431>, the deep <8415> set
<7311> him up on high <7311> with her rivers <5104> running
<1980> round <5439> about his plants <4302>, and sent <7971> out
her little <8585> rivers <8585> unto all <3605> the trees <6086>
of the field <7704>.
5 Therefore his height <6967> was exalted <1361> above all
<3605> the trees <6086> of the field <7704>, and his boughs
<5634> were multiplied <7235>, and his branches <6288> became
<0748> long <0748> because of the multitude <7227> of waters
<4325>, when he shot <7971> forth.
6 All <3605> the fowls <5775> of heaven <8064> made their nests
<7077> in his boughs <5589>, and under <8478> his branches
<6288> did all <3605> the beasts <2416> of the field <7704>
bring <3205> forth <3205> their young, and under his shadow
<6738> dwelt <3427> all <3605> great <7227> nations <1471>.
7 Thus was he fair <3302> in his greatness <1433>, in the
length <0753> of his branches <1808>: for his root <8328> was by
great <7227> waters <4325>.
8 The cedars <0730> in the garden <1588> of God <0430> could
not hide <6004> him: the fir <1265> trees were not like <1819>
his boughs <5589>, and the chesnut <6196> trees were not like
<1819> his branches <6288>; nor any <3605> tree <6086> in the
garden <1588> of God <0430> was like <1819> unto him in his
beauty <3308>.
9 I have made him fair <3303> by the multitude <7230> of his
branches <1808>: so that all <3605> the trees <6086> of Eden
<5731>, that [were] in the garden <1588> of God <0430>, envied
<7065> him.
10. Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136>
GOD <3069>; Because thou hast lifted <1361> up thyself in height
<6967>, and he hath shot <7971> up his top <6788> among <0996>
the thick <5688> boughs <5688>, and his heart <3824> is lifted
<7311> up in his height <1363>;
11 I have therefore delivered <5414> him into the hand <3027>
of the mighty <0410> one of the heathen <1471>; he shall surely
deal <6213> with him: I have driven <1644> him out for his
wickedness <7562>.
12 And strangers <2114>, the terrible <6184> of the nations
<1471>, have cut <3772> him off, and have left <5203> him: upon
the mountains <2022> and in all <3605> the valleys <1516> his
branches <1808> are fallen <5307>, and his boughs <6288> are
broken <7665> by all <3605> the rivers <0650> of the land <0776>;
and all <3605> the people <5971> of the earth <0776> are gone
<3381> down from his shadow <6738>, and have left <5203> him.
13 Upon his ruin <4658> shall all <3605> the fowls <5775> of
the heaven <8064> remain <7931>, and all <3605> the beasts
<2416> of the field <7704> shall be upon his branches <6288>:
14 To the end <4616> that none <3808> of all <3605> the trees
<6086> by the waters <4325> exalt <1361> themselves for their
height <6967>, neither <3808> shoot <5414> up their top <6788>
among <0413> the thick <5688> boughs <5688>, neither <3808>
their trees <0352> stand <5975> up in their height <1363>, all
<3605> that drink <8354> water <4325>: for they are all <3605>
delivered <5414> unto death <4194>, to the nether <8482> parts
of the earth <0776>, in the midst <8432> of the children <1121>
of men <0120>, with them that go <3381> down <3381> to the pit
<0953>.
15 Thus saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <0430>; In the day
<3117> when he went <3381> down <3381> to the grave <7585> I
caused a mourning <56>: I covered <3680> the deep <8415> for him,
and I restrained <4513> the floods <5104> thereof, and the
great <7227> waters <4325> were stayed <3607>: and I caused
Lebanon <3844> to mourn <6937> for him, and all <3605> the trees
<6086> of the field <7704> fainted <5969> for him.
16 I made the nations <1471> to shake <7493> at the sound
<6963> of his fall <4658>, when I cast <3381> him down <3381> to
hell <7585> with them that descend <3381> into the pit <0953>:
and all <3605> the trees <6086> of Eden <5731>, the choice
<4005> and best <2896> of Lebanon <3844>, all <3605> that drink
<8354> water <4325>, shall be comforted <5162> in the nether
<8482> parts of the earth <0776>.
17 They also <1571> went <3381> down <3381> into hell <7585>
with him unto [them that be] slain <2491> with the sword <2719>;
and [they that were] his arm <2220>, [that] dwelt <3427> under
his shadow <6738> in the midst <8432> of the heathen <1471>.
18 To whom <4310> art thou thus <3602> like <1819> in glory
<3519> and in greatness <1433> among the trees <6086> of Eden
<5731>? yet shalt thou be brought <3381> down <3381> with the
trees <6086> of Eden <5731> unto the nether <8482> parts of the
earth <0776>: thou shalt lie <7901> in the midst <8432> of the
uncircumcised <6189> with [them that be] slain <2491> by the
sword <2719>. This <1931> [is] Pharaoh <6547> and all <3605> his
multitude <1995>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
Ezekiel 32
1. And it came <1961> to pass in the twelfth year <8141>, in
the twelfth month <2320>, in the first <0259> [day] of the month
<2320>, [that] the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961>
unto me, saying <0559>,
2 Son <1121> of man <0120>, take <5375> up a lamentation <7015>
for Pharaoh <6547> king <4428> of Egypt <4714>, and say <0559>
unto him, Thou art like a young <3715> lion <3715> of the
nations <1471>, and thou [art] as a whale <8565> in the seas
<3220>: and thou camest <1518> forth <1518> with thy rivers
<5104>, and troubledst <1804> the waters <4325> with thy feet
<7272>, and fouledst <7515> their rivers <5104>.
3 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; I will
therefore spread <6566> out my net <7568> over <5921> thee with
a company <6951> of many <7227> people <5971>; and they shall
bring <5927> thee up in my net <2764>.
4 Then will I leave <5203> thee upon the land <0776>, I will
cast <2904> thee forth upon the open <6440> field <7704>, and
will cause all <3605> the fowls <5775> of the heaven <8064> to
remain <7931> upon thee, and I will fill <7646> the beasts
<2416> of the whole <3605> earth <0776> with thee.
5 And I will lay <5414> thy flesh <1320> upon the mountains
<2022>, and fill <4390> the valleys <1516> with thy height
<7419>.
6 I will also water <8248> with thy blood <1818> the land
<0776> wherein thou swimmest <6824>, [even] to the mountains
<2022>; and the rivers <0650> shall be full <4390> of thee.
7 And when I shall put <3518> thee out, I will cover <3680> the
heaven <8064>, and make the stars <3556> thereof dark <6937>; I
will cover <3680> the sun <8121> with a cloud <6051>, and the
moon <3394> shall not give her light <0216>.
8 All <3605> the bright <3974> lights <3974> of heaven <8064>
will I make dark <6937> over <5921> thee, and set <5414>
darkness <2822> upon thy land <0776>, saith <5002> the Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>.
9 I will also vex <3707> the hearts <3820> of many <7227>
people <5971>, when I shall bring <0935> thy destruction <7667>
among the nations <1471>, into <5921> the countries <0776> which
<0834> thou hast not known <3045>.
10 Yea, I will make many <7227> people <5971> amazed <8074> at
thee, and their kings <4428> shall be horribly <8178> afraid
<8175> for thee, when I shall brandish <5774> my sword <2719>
before <5921> them; and they shall tremble <2729> at [every]
moment <7281>, every man <0376> for his own life <5315>, in the
day <3117> of thy fall <4658>.
11 For thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; The
sword <2719> of the king <4428> of Babylon <0894> shall come
<0935> upon thee.
12 By the swords <2719> of the mighty <1368> will I cause thy
multitude <1995> to fall <4658>, the terrible <6184> of the
nations <1471>, all <3605> of them: and they shall spoil <7703>
the pomp <1347> of Egypt <4714>, and all <3605> the multitude
<1995> thereof shall be destroyed <8045>.
13 I will destroy <6> also all <3605> the beasts <0929> thereof
from beside <5921> the great <7227> waters <4325>; neither
<3808> shall the foot <7272> of man <0120> trouble <4103> them
any more <5750>, nor <3808> the hoofs <6541> of beasts <0929>
trouble <1804> them.
14 Then <0227> will I make their waters <4325> deep <8257>, and
cause their rivers <5104> to run <3212> like oil <8081>, saith
<5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
15 When I shall make <5414> the land <0776> of Egypt <4714>
desolate <8077>, and the country <0776> shall be destitute
<8047> of that whereof it was full <4393>, when I shall smite
<5221> all <3605> them that dwell <3427> therein, then shall
they know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
16 This <1931> [is] the lamentation <7015> wherewith they shall
lament <6969> her: the daughters <1121> of the nations <1471>
shall lament <6969> her: they shall lament <6969> for her,
[even] for Egypt <4714>, and for all <3605> her multitude <1995>,
saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
17. It came <1961> to pass also in the twelfth year <8141>, in
the fifteenth <6240> [day] of the month <2320>, [that] the word
<1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me, saying <0559>,
18 Son <1121> of man <0120>, wail <5091> for the multitude
<1995> of Egypt <4714>, and cast <3381> them down <3381>, [even]
her, and the daughters <1121> of the famous <0117> nations
<1471>, unto the nether <8482> parts of the earth <0776>, with
them that go <3381> down <3381> into the pit <0953>.
19 Whom <4310> dost thou pass in beauty <5276>? go <3381> down
<3381>, and be thou laid <7901> with the uncircumcised <6189>.
20 They shall fall <4658> in the midst <8432> of [them that
are] slain <2491> by the sword <2719>: she is delivered <5414>
to the sword <2719>: draw <4900> her and all <3605> her
multitudes <1995>.
21 The strong <0410> among the mighty <1368> shall speak <1696>
to him out of the midst <8432> of hell <7585> with them that
help <5826> him: they are gone <3381> down <3381>, they lie
<7901> uncircumcised <6189>, slain <2491> by the sword <2719>.
22 Asshur <0804> [is] there <8033> and all <3605> her company
<6951>: his graves <6913> [are] about <5439> him: all <3605> of
them slain <2491>, fallen <5307> by the sword <2719>:
23 Whose <0834> graves <6913> are set <5414> in the sides
<3411> of the pit <0953>, and her company <6951> is round <5439>
about her grave <6900>: all <3605> of them slain <2491>, fallen
<5307> by the sword <2719>, which <0834> caused <5414> terror
<2851> in the land <0776> of the living <2416>.
24 There <8033> [is] Elam <5867> and all <3605> her multitude
<1995> round <5439> about her grave <6900>, all <3605> of them
slain <2491>, fallen <5307> by the sword <2719>, which <0834>
are gone <3381> down <3381> uncircumcised <6189> into <0413> the
nether <8482> parts of the earth <0776>, which <0834> caused
<5414> their terror <2851> in the land <0776> of the living
<2416>; yet have they borne <5375> their shame <3639> with them
that go <3381> down <3381> to the pit <0953>.
25 They have set <5414> her a bed <4904> in the midst <8432> of
the slain <2491> with all <3605> her multitude <1995>: her
graves <6913> [are] round <5439> about him: all <3605> of them
uncircumcised <6189>, slain <2491> by the sword <2719>: though
<3588> their terror <2851> was caused <5414> in the land <0776>
of the living <2416>, yet have they borne <5375> their shame
<3639> with them that go <3381> down <3381> to the pit <0953>:
he is put <5414> in the midst <8432> of [them that be] slain
<2491>.
26 There <8033> [is] Meshech <4902>, Tubal <8422>, and all
<3605> her multitude <1995>: her graves <6913> [are] round
<5439> about him: all <3605> of them uncircumcised <6189>, slain
<2490> by the sword <2719>, though <3588> they caused <5414>
their terror <2851> in the land <0776> of the living <2416>.
27 And they shall not lie <7901> with the mighty <1368> [that
are] fallen <5307> of the uncircumcised <6189>, which <0834> are
gone <3381> down <3381> to hell <7585> with their weapons <3627>
of war <4421>: and they have laid <5414> their swords <2719>
under <8478> their heads <7218>, but their iniquities <5771>
shall be upon their bones <6106>, though <3588> [they were] the
terror <2851> of the mighty <1368> in the land <0776> of the
living <2416>.
28 Yea, thou shalt be broken <7665> in the midst <8432> of the
uncircumcised <6189>, and shalt lie <7901> with [them that are]
slain <2491> with the sword <2719>.
29 There <8033> [is] Edom <0123>, her kings <4428>, and all
<3605> her princes <5387>, which <0834> with their might <1369>
are laid <5414> by [them that were] slain <2491> by the sword
<2719>: they shall lie <7901> with the uncircumcised <6189>, and
with them that go <3381> down <3381> to the pit <0953>.
30 There <8033> [be] the princes <5257> of the north <6828>,
all <3605> of them, and all <3605> the Zidonians <6722>, which
<0834> are gone <3381> down <3381> with the slain <2491>; with
their terror <2851> they are ashamed <0954> of their might
<1369>; and they lie <7901> uncircumcised <6189> with [them that
be] slain <2491> by the sword <2719>, and bear <5375> their
shame <3639> with them that go <3381> down <3381> to the pit
<0953>.
31 Pharaoh <6547> shall see <7200> them, and shall be comforted
<5162> over <5921> all <3605> his multitude <1995>, [even]
Pharaoh <6547> and all <3605> his army <2428> slain <2491> by
the sword <2719>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
32 For I have caused <5414> my terror <2851> in the land <0776>
of the living <2416>: and he shall be laid <7901> in the midst
<8432> of the uncircumcised <6189> with [them that are] slain
<2491> with the sword <2719>, [even] Pharaoh <6547> and all
<3605> his multitude <1995>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>.
Ezekiel 33
1. Again the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me,
saying <0559>,
2 Son <1121> of man <0120>, speak <1696> to the children <1121>
of thy people <5971>, and say <0559> unto them, When <3588> I
bring <0935> the sword <2719> upon a land <0776>, if the people
<5971> of the land <0776> take <3947> a man <0376> of their
coasts <7097>, and set <5414> him for their watchman <6822>:
3 If when he seeth <7200> the sword <2719> come <0935> upon the
land <0776>, he blow <8628> the trumpet <7782>, and warn <2094>
the people <5971>;
4 Then whosoever heareth <8085> the sound <6963> of the trumpet
<7782>, and taketh not warning <2094>; if the sword <2719> come
<0935>, and take <3947> him away, his blood <1818> shall be upon
his own head <7218>.
5 He heard <8085> the sound <6963> of the trumpet <7782>, and
took not warning <2094>; his blood <1818> shall be upon him. But
he that taketh warning <2094> shall deliver <4422> his soul
<5315>.
6 But if <3588> the watchman <6822> see <7200> the sword <2719>
come <0935>, and blow <8628> not the trumpet <7782>, and the
people <5971> be not warned <2094>; if the sword <2719> come
<0935>, and take <3947> [any] person <5315> from among them, he
is taken <3947> away in his iniquity <5771>; but his blood
<1818> will I require <1875> at the watchman's <6822> hand
<3027>.
7 So thou, O son <1121> of man <0120>, I have set <5414> thee a
watchman <6822> unto the house <1004> of Israel <3478>;
therefore thou shalt hear <8085> the word <1697> at my mouth
<6310>, and warn <2094> them from me.
8 When I say <0559> unto the wicked <7563>, O wicked <7563>
[man], thou shalt surely die <4191>; if thou dost not speak
<1696> to warn <2094> the wicked <7563> from his way <1870>,
that wicked <7563> [man] shall die <4191> in his iniquity <5771>;
but his blood <1818> will I require <1245> at thine hand <3027>.
9 Nevertheless, if <3588> thou warn <2094> the wicked <7563> of
his way <1870> to turn <7725> from it; if he do not turn <7725>
from his way <1870>, he shall die <4191> in his iniquity; but
thou hast delivered <5337> thy soul <5315>.
10. Therefore, O thou son <1121> of man <0120>, speak <0559>
unto the house <1004> of Israel <3478>; Thus <3651> ye speak
<0559>, saying <0559>, If <3588> our transgressions <6588> and
our sins <2403> [be] upon us, and we pine <4743> away in them,
how <0349> should we then live <2421>?
11 Say <0559> unto them, [As] I live <2416>, saith <5002> the
Lord <0136> GOD <3069>, I have no <0518> pleasure <2654> in the
death <4194> of the wicked <7563>; but that the wicked <7563>
turn <7725> from his way <1870> and live <2421>: turn <7725> ye,
turn <7725> ye from your evil <7451> ways <1870>; for why <4100>
will ye die <4191>, O house <1004> of Israel <3478>?
12 Therefore, thou son <1121> of man <0120>, say <0559> unto
the children <1121> of thy people <5971>, The righteousness
<6666> of the righteous <6662> shall not deliver <5337> him in
the day <3117> of his transgression <6588>: as for the
wickedness <7564> of the wicked <7563>, he shall not fall <3782>
thereby in the day <3117> that he turneth <7725> from his
wickedness <7562>; neither <3808> shall the righteous <6662> be
able <3201> to live <2421> for his [righteousness] in the day
<3117> that he sinneth <2398>.
13 When I shall say <0559> to the righteous <6662>, [that] he
shall surely live <2421>; if he trust <0982> to his own
righteousness <6666>, and commit <6213> iniquity <5766>, all
<3605> his righteousnesses <6666> shall not be remembered <2142>;
but for his iniquity <5766> that he hath committed <6213>, he
shall die <4191> for it.
14 Again, when I say <0559> unto the wicked <7563>, Thou shalt
surely die <4191>; if he turn <7725> from his sin <2403>, and do
<6213> that which is lawful <4941> and right <6666>;
15 [If] the wicked <7563> restore <7725> the pledge <2258>,
give <7999> again <7999> that he had robbed <5100>, walk <1980>
in the statutes <2708> of life <2416>, without <1115> committing
<6213> iniquity <5766>; he shall surely live <2421>, he shall
not die <4191>.
16 None <3808> of his sins <2403> that he hath committed <2398>
shall be mentioned <2142> unto him: he hath done <6213> that
which is lawful <4941> and right <6666>; he shall surely live
<2421>.
17 Yet the children <1121> of thy people <5971> say <0559>, The
way <1870> of the Lord <0136> is not equal <8505>: but as for
them, their way <1870> is not equal <8505>.
18 When the righteous <6662> turneth <7725> from his
righteousness <6666>, and committeth <6213> iniquity <5766>, he
shall even die <4191> thereby.
19 But if the wicked <7563> turn <7725> from his wickedness
<7564>, and do <6213> that which <0834> is lawful <4941> and
right <6666>, he shall live <2421> thereby.
20 Yet ye say <0559>, The way <1870> of the Lord <0136> is not
equal <8505>. O ye house <1004> of Israel <3478>, I will judge
<8199> you every <0376> one <0376> after his ways <1870>.
21. And it came <1961> to pass in the twelfth year <8141> of
our captivity <1546>, in the tenth <6224> [month], in the fifth
<2568> [day] of the month <2320>, [that] one that had escaped
<6412> out of Jerusalem <3389> came <0935> unto me, saying
<0559>, The city <5892> is smitten <5221>.
22 Now the hand <3027> of the LORD <3068> was upon me in the
evening <6153>, afore <6440> he that was escaped <6412> came
<0935>; and had opened <6605> my mouth <6310>, until <5704> he
came <0935> to me in the morning <1242>; and my mouth <6310> was
opened <6605>, and I was no <3808> more <5750> dumb <0481>.
23 Then the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me,
saying <0559>,
24 Son <1121> of man <0120>, they that inhabit <3427> those
<0428> wastes <2723> of the land <0127> of Israel <3478> speak
<0559>, saying <0559>, Abraham <85> was one <0259>, and he
inherited <3423> the land <0776>: but we [are] many <7227>; the
land <0776> is given <5414> us for inheritance <4181>.
25 Wherefore <3651> say <0559> unto them, Thus <3541> saith
<0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Ye eat <0398> with the blood
<1818>, and lift <5375> up your eyes <5869> toward <0413> your
idols <1544>, and shed <8210> blood <1818>: and shall ye possess
<3423> the land <0776>?
26 Ye stand <5975> upon your sword <2719>, ye work <6213>
abomination <8441>, and ye defile <2930> every <0376> one <0376>
his neighbour's <7453> wife <0802>: and shall ye possess <3423>
the land <0776>?
27 Say <0559> thou thus <3541> unto them, Thus <3541> saith
<0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; [As] I live <2416>, surely
they that [are] in the wastes <2723> shall fall <5307> by the
sword <2719>, and him that [is] in the open <6440> field <7704>
will I give <5414> to the beasts <2416> to be devoured <0398>,
and they that [be] in the forts <4679> and in the caves <4631>
shall die <4191> of the pestilence <1698>.
28 For I will lay <5414> the land <0776> most desolate <8077>,
and the pomp <1347> of her strength <5797> shall cease <7673>;
and the mountains <2022> of Israel <3478> shall be desolate
<8074>, that none <0369> shall pass <5674> through.
29 Then shall they know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>,
when I have laid <5414> the land <0776> most desolate <8077>
because <5921> of all <3605> their abominations <8441> which
<0834> they have committed <6213>.
30. Also, thou son <1121> of man <0120>, the children <1121> of
thy people <5971> still are talking <1696> against thee by the
walls <7023> and in the doors <6607> of the houses <1004>, and
speak <1696> one <2297> to another <0259>, every <0376> one
<0376> to his brother <0251>, saying <0559>, Come <0935>, I pray
<4994> you, and hear <8085> what <4100> is the word <1697> that
cometh <3318> forth <3318> from the LORD <3068>.
31 And they come <0935> unto thee as the people <5971> cometh
<0935>, and they sit <3427> before <6440> thee [as] my people
<5971>, and they hear <8085> thy words <1697>, but they will not
do <6213> them: for with their mouth <6310> they shew <6213>
much love <5690>, [but] their heart <3820> goeth <1980> after
<0310> their covetousness <1215>.
32 And, lo <2009>, thou [art] unto them as a very <5690> lovely
<5690> song <7892> of one that hath a pleasant <3303> voice
<6963>, and can play <5059> well on an instrument: for they hear
<8085> thy words <1697>, but they do <6213> them not.
33 And when this cometh <0935> to pass, (lo, it will come
<0935>,) then shall they know <3045> that a prophet <5030> hath
been <1961> among <8432> them.
Ezekiel 34
1. And the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me,
saying <0559>,
2 Son <1121> of man <0120>, prophesy <5012> against <5921> the
shepherds <7462> of Israel <3478>, prophesy <5012>, and say
<0559> unto them, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069> unto the shepherds <7462>; Woe <1945> [be] to the
shepherds <7462> of Israel <3478> that do feed <7462> themselves!
should not the shepherds <7462> feed <7462> the flocks <6629>?
3 Ye eat <0398> the fat <2459>, and ye clothe <3847> you with
the wool <6785>, ye kill <2076> them that are fed <1277>: [but]
ye feed <7462> not the flock <6629>.
4 The diseased <2456> have ye not strengthened <2388>, neither
<3808> have ye healed <7495> that which was sick <2470>, neither
<3808> have ye bound <2280> up [that which was] broken <7665>,
neither <3808> have ye brought <7725> again <7725> that which
was driven <5080> away, neither <3808> have ye sought <1245>
that which was lost <6>; but with force <2394> and with cruelty
<6531> have ye ruled <7287> them.
5 And they were scattered <6327>, because [there is] no <1097>
shepherd <7462>: and they became <1961> meat <0402> to all
<3605> the beasts <2416> of the field <7704>, when they were
scattered <6327>.
6 My sheep <6629> wandered <7686> through all <3605> the
mountains <2022>, and upon every <3605> high <7311> hill <1389>:
yea, my flock <6629> was scattered <6327> upon all <3605> the
face <6440> of the earth <0776>, and none <0369> did search
<1875> or seek <1245> [after them].
7. Therefore <3651>, ye shepherds <7462>, hear <8085> the word
<1697> of the LORD <3068>;
8 [As] I live <2416>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>,
surely because <3282> my flock <6629> became <1961> a prey
<0957>, and my flock <6629> became <1961> meat <0402> to every
<3605> beast <2416> of the field <7704>, because [there was] no
<0369> shepherd <7462>, neither <3808> did my shepherds <7462>
search <1875> for my flock <6629>, but the shepherds <7462> fed
<7462> themselves, and fed <7462> not my flock <6629>;
9 Therefore <3651>, O ye shepherds <7462>, hear <8085> the word
<1697> of the LORD <3068>;
10 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Behold
<2005>, I [am] against <0413> the shepherds <7462>; and I will
require <1875> my flock <6629> at their hand <3027>, and cause
them to cease <7673> from feeding <7462> the flock <6629>;
neither <3808> shall the shepherds <7462> feed <7462> themselves
<0853> any more <5750>; for I will deliver <5337> my flock
<6629> from their mouth <6310>, that they may not be meat <0402>
for them.
11 For thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>;
Behold <2005>, I, [even] I, will both search <1875> my sheep
<6629>, and seek <1239> them out.
12 As a shepherd <7462> seeketh <1243> out his flock <5739> in
the day <3117> that he is among <8432> his sheep <6629> [that
are] scattered <6566>; so <3651> will I seek <1239> out my sheep
<6629>, and will deliver <5337> them out of all <3605> places
<4725> where they have been scattered <6327> in the cloudy
<6051> and dark <6205> day <3117>.
13 And I will bring <3318> them out from the people <5971>, and
gather <6908> them from the countries <0776>, and will bring
<0935> them to their own land <0127>, and feed <7462> them upon
the mountains <2022> of Israel <3478> by the rivers <0650>, and
in all <3605> the inhabited <4186> places of the country <0776>.
14 I will feed <7462> them in a good <2896> pasture <4829>, and
upon the high <4791> mountains <2022> of Israel <3478> shall
their fold <5116> be: there <8033> shall they lie <7257> in a
good <2896> fold <5116>, and [in] a fat <8082> pasture <4829>
shall they feed <7462> upon the mountains <2022> of Israel
<3478>.
15 I will feed <7462> my flock <6629>, and I will cause them to
lie <7257> down <7901>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
16 I will seek <1245> that which was lost <6>, and bring <7725>
again <7725> that which was driven <5080> away, and will bind
<2280> up [that which was] broken <7665>, and will strengthen
<2388> that which was sick <2470>: but I will destroy <8045> the
fat <8082> and the strong <2389>; I will feed <7462> them with
judgment <4941>.
17. And [as for] you, O my flock <6629>, thus <3541> saith
<0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Behold <2005>, I judge <8199>
between <0996> cattle <7716> and cattle <7716>, between the rams
<0352> and the he goats <6260>.
18 [Seemeth <5869> it] a small <4592> thing unto you to have
eaten <7462> up the good <2896> pasture <4829>, but ye must
tread <7429> down with your feet <7272> the residue <3499> of
your pastures <4829>? and to have drunk <8354> of the deep
<4950> waters <4325>, but ye must foul <7515> the residue <3498>
with your feet <7272>?
19 And [as for] my flock <6629>, they eat <7462> that which ye
have trodden <7429> with your feet <7272>; and they drink <8354>
that which ye have fouled <4833> with your feet <7272>.
20 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136>
GOD <3069> unto them; Behold <2005>, I, [even] I, will judge
<8199> between <0996> the fat <1277> cattle <7716> and between
<0996> the lean <7330> cattle <7716>.
21 Because <3282> ye have thrust <1920> with side <6654> and
with shoulder <3802>, and pushed <5055> all <3605> the diseased
<2456> with your horns <7161>, till <5704> ye have scattered
<6327> them abroad <2351>;
22 Therefore will I save <3467> my flock <6629>, and they shall
no <3808> more <5750> be a prey <0957>; and I will judge <8199>
between <0996> cattle <7716> and cattle <7716>.
23 And I will set <6965> up one <0259> shepherd <7462> over
<5921> them, and he shall feed <7462> them, [even <0853>] my
servant <5650> David <1732>; he shall feed <7462> them, and he
shall be their shepherd <7462>.
24 And I the LORD <3068> will be their God <0430>, and my
servant <5650> David <1732> a prince <5387> among <8432> them; I
the LORD <3068> have spoken <1696> [it].
25 And I will make <3772> with them a covenant <1285> of peace
<7965>, and will cause the evil <7451> beasts <2416> to cease
<7673> out of the land <0776>: and they shall dwell <3427>
safely <0983> in the wilderness <4057>, and sleep <3462> in the
woods <3264>.
26 And I will make <5414> them and the places round <5439>
about my hill <1389> a blessing <1293>; and I will cause the
shower <1653> to come <3381> down <3381> in his season <6256>;
there shall be showers <1653> of blessing <1293>.
27 And the tree <6086> of the field <7704> shall yield <5414>
her fruit <6529>, and the earth <0776> shall yield <5414> her
increase <2981>, and they shall be safe <0983> in their land
<0127>, and shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>, when
I have broken <7665> the bands <4133> of their yoke <5923>, and
delivered <5337> them out of the hand <3027> of those that
served <5647> themselves of them.
28 And they shall no <3808> more <5750> be a prey <0957> to the
heathen <1471>, neither <3808> shall the beast <2416> of the
land <0776> devour <0398> them; but they shall dwell <3427>
safely <0983>, and none <0369> shall make [them] afraid <2729>.
29 And I will raise <6965> up for them a plant <4302> of renown
<8034>, and they shall be no <3808> more <5750> consumed <0622>
with hunger <7457> in the land <0776>, neither <3808> bear
<5375> the shame <3639> of the heathen <1471> any more <5750>.
30 Thus shall they know <3045> that I the LORD <3068> their God
<0430> [am] with them, and [that] they, [even] the house <1004>
of Israel <3478>, [are] my people <5971>, saith <5002> the Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>.
31 And ye my flock <6629>, the flock <6629> of my pasture
<4830>, [are] men <0120>, [and] I [am] your God <0430>, saith
<5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
Ezekiel 35
1. Moreover the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto
me, saying <0559>,
2 Son <1121> of man <0120>, set <7760> thy face <6440> against
<5921> mount <2022> Seir <8165>, and prophesy <5012> against
<5921> it,
3 And say <0559> unto it, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>; Behold <2005>, O mount <2022> Seir <8165>, I
[am] against <0413> thee, and I will stretch <5186> out mine
hand <3027> against <5921> thee, and I will make <5414> thee
most desolate <8077>.
4 I will lay <7760> thy cities <5892> waste <2723>, and thou
shalt be desolate <8077>, and thou shalt know <3045> that I [am]
the LORD <3068>.
5 Because <3588> thou hast had <1961> a perpetual <5769> hatred
<0342>, and hast shed <5064> [the blood of] the children <1121>
of Israel <3478> by the force <3027> of the sword <2719> in the
time <6256> of their calamity <0343>, in the time <6256> [that
their] iniquity <5771> [had] an end <7093>:
6 Therefore <3651>, [as] I live <2416>, saith <5002> the Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>, I will prepare <6213> thee unto blood <1818>,
and blood <1818> shall pursue <7291> thee: sith <0518> thou hast
not hated <8130> blood <1818>, even blood <1818> shall pursue
<7291> thee.
7 Thus will I make <5414> mount <2022> Seir <8165> most <8077>
desolate <8077>, and cut <3772> off from it him that passeth
<5674> out and him that returneth <7725>.
8 And I will fill <4390> his mountains <2022> with his slain
<2491> [men]: in thy hills <1389>, and in thy valleys <1516>,
and in all <3605> thy rivers <0650>, shall they fall <5307> that
are slain <2491> with the sword <2719>.
9 I will make <5414> thee perpetual <5769> desolations <8077>,
and thy cities <5892> shall not return <3427>: and ye shall know
<3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
10. Because <3282> thou hast said <0559>, These two <8147>
nations <1471> and these two <8147> countries <0776> shall be
mine, and we will possess <3423> it; whereas the LORD <3068> was
there <8033>:
11 Therefore <3651>, [as] I live <2416>, saith <5002> the Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>, I will even do <6213> according to thine
anger <0639>, and according to thine envy <7068> which <0834>
thou hast used <6213> out of thy hatred <8135> against them; and
I will make <6213> myself known <3045> among them, when <0834> I
have judged <8199> thee.
12 And thou shalt know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>, [and
that] I have heard <8085> all <3605> thy blasphemies <5007>
which <0834> thou hast spoken <0559> against <5921> the
mountains <2022> of Israel <3478>, saying <0559>, They are laid
desolate <8074>, they are given <5414> us to consume <0402>.
13 Thus with your mouth <6310> ye have boasted <1431> against
<5921> me, and have multiplied <6280> your words <1697> against
<5921> me: I have heard <8085> [them].
14 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; When
the whole <3605> earth <0776> rejoiceth <8055>, I will make
<6213> thee desolate <8077>.
15 As thou didst rejoice <8057> at the inheritance <5159> of
the house <1004> of Israel <3478>, because it was desolate
<8074>, so <3651> will I do <6213> unto thee: thou shalt be
desolate <8077>, O mount <2022> Seir <8165>, and all <3605>
Idumea <0123>, [even] all <3605> of it: and they shall know
<3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
Ezekiel 36
1. Also, thou son <1121> of man <0120>, prophesy <5012> unto
the mountains <2022> of Israel <3478>, and say <0559>, Ye
mountains <2022> of Israel <3478>, hear <8085> the word <1697>
of the LORD <3068>:
2 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Because
<3282> the enemy <0341> hath said <0559> against <5921> you, Aha
<0253>, even the ancient <5769> high <1116> places are ours in
possession <4181>:
3 Therefore <3651> prophesy <5012> and say <0559>, Thus <3541>
saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Because <3282> they
have made [you] desolate <8074>, and swallowed <7602> you up on
every <5437> side <5439>, that ye might be a possession <4181>
unto the residue <7611> of the heathen <1471>, and ye are taken
<5927> up in the lips <8193> of talkers <3956>, and [are] an
infamy <1681> of the people <5971>:
4 Therefore <3651>, ye mountains <2022> of Israel <3478>, hear
<8085> the word <1697> of the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Thus
<3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069> to the mountains
<2022>, and to the hills <1389>, to the rivers <0650>, and to
the valleys <1516>, to the desolate <8076> wastes <2723>, and to
the cities <5892> that are forsaken <5800>, which <0834> became
<1961> a prey <0957> and derision <3932> to the residue <7611>
of the heathen <1471> that [are] round <5439> about;
5 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>; Surely in the fire <0784> of my jealousy <7068> have I
spoken <1696> against <5921> the residue <7611> of the heathen
<1471>, and against <5921> all <3605> Idumea <0123>, which
<0834> have appointed <5414> my land <0776> into their
possession <4181> with the joy <8057> of all <3605> [their]
heart <3824>, with despiteful <7589> minds <5315>, to cast
<4054> it out for a prey <0957>.
6 Prophesy <5012> therefore <3651> concerning <5921> the land
<0127> of Israel <3478>, and say <0559> unto the mountains
<2022>, and to the hills <1389>, to the rivers <0650>, and to
the valleys <1516>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>; Behold <2005>, I have spoken <1696> in my jealousy
<7068> and in my fury <2534>, because <3282> ye have borne
<5375> the shame <3639> of the heathen <1471>:
7 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>; I have lifted <5375> up mine hand <3027>, Surely the
heathen <1471> that [are] about <5439> you, they shall bear
<5375> their shame <3639>.
8 But ye, O mountains <2022> of Israel <3478>, ye shall shoot
<5414> forth your branches <6057>, and yield <5375> your fruit
<6529> to my people <5971> of Israel <3478>; for they are at
<7126> hand <7126> to come <0935>.
9 For, behold <2005>, I [am] for you, and I will turn <6437>
unto you, and ye shall be tilled <5647> and sown <2232>:
10 And I will multiply <7235> men <0120> upon you, all <3605>
the house <1004> of Israel <3478>, [even] all <3605> of it: and
the cities <5892> shall be inhabited <3427>, and the wastes
<2723> shall be builded <1129>:
11 And I will multiply <7235> upon you man <0120> and beast
<0929>; and they shall increase <7235> and bring <6509> fruit
<6509>: and I will settle <3427> you after your old <6927>
estates, and will do better <2896> [unto you] than at your
beginnings <7221>: and ye shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD
<3068>.
12 Yea, I will cause men <0120> to walk <3212> upon you, [even
<0853>] my people <5971> Israel <3478>; and they shall possess
<3423> thee, and thou shalt be their inheritance <5159>, and
thou shalt no <3808> more <5750> henceforth bereave <7921> them
[of men].
13 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Because
<3282> they say <0559> unto you, Thou [land] devourest <0398> up
men <0120>, and hast bereaved <7921> thy nations <1471>;
14 Therefore <3651> thou shalt devour <0398> men <0120> no
<3808> more <5750>, neither <3808> bereave thy nations <1471>
any more <5750>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
15 Neither <3808> will I cause [men] to hear <8085> in thee the
shame <3639> of the heathen <1471> any more <5750>, neither
<3808> shalt thou bear <5375> the reproach <2781> of the people
<5971> any more <5750>, neither <3808> shalt thou cause thy
nations <1471> to fall <3782> any more <5750>, saith <5002> the
Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
16. Moreover the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961>
unto me, saying <0559>,
17 Son <1121> of man <0120>, when the house <1004> of Israel
<3478> dwelt <3427> in their own land <0127>, they defiled
<2930> it by their own way <1870> and by their doings <5949>:
their way <1870> was before <6440> me as the uncleanness <2932>
of a removed <5079> woman.
18 Wherefore I poured <8210> my fury <2534> upon them for the
blood <1818> that they had shed <8210> upon the land <0776>, and
for their idols <1544> [wherewith] they had polluted <2930> it:
19 And I scattered <6327> them among the heathen <1471>, and
they were dispersed <2219> through the countries <0776>:
according to their way <1870> and according to their doings
<5949> I judged <8199> them.
20 And when they entered <0935> unto the heathen <1471>,
whither they went <0935>, they profaned <2490> my holy <6944>
name <8034>, when they said <0559> to them, These <4228> [are]
the people <5971> of the LORD <3068>, and are gone <3318> forth
<3318> out of his land <0776>.
21 But I had pity <2550> for mine holy <6944> name <8034>,
which <0834> the house <1004> of Israel <3478> had profaned
<2490> among the heathen <1471>, whither they went <0935>.
22 Therefore <3651> say <0559> unto the house <1004> of Israel
<3478>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; I
do <6213> not [this] for your sakes <6616>, O house <1004> of
Israel <3478>, but for mine holy <6944> name's <8034> sake,
which <0834> ye have profaned <2490> among the heathen <1471>,
whither ye went <0935>.
23 And I will sanctify <6942> my great <1419> name <8034>,
which was profaned <2490> among the heathen <1471>, which <0834>
ye have profaned <2490> in the midst <8432> of them; and the
heathen <1471> shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>,
saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>, when I shall be
sanctified <6942> in you before their eyes <5869>.
24 For I will take <3947> you from among the heathen <1471>,
and gather <6908> you out of all <3605> countries <0776>, and
will bring <0935> you into <0413> your own land <0127>.
25. Then will I sprinkle <2236> clean <2889> water <4325> upon
you, and ye shall be clean <2891>: from all <3605> your
filthiness <2932>, and from all <3605> your idols <1544>, will I
cleanse <2891> you.
26 A new <2319> heart <3820> also will I give <5414> you, and a
new <2319> spirit <7307> will I put <5414> within <7130> you:
and I will take <5493> away <5493> the stony <68> heart <3820>
out of your flesh <1320>, and I will give <5414> you an heart
<3820> of flesh <1320>.
27 And I will put <5414> my spirit <7307> within <7130> you,
and cause you to walk <3212> in my statutes <2706>, and ye shall
keep <8104> my judgments <4941>, and do <6213> [them].
28 And ye shall dwell <3427> in the land <0776> that I gave
<5414> to your fathers <1>; and ye shall be my people <5971>,
and I will be your God <0430>.
29 I will also save <3467> you from all <3605> your
uncleannesses <2932>: and I will call <7121> for the corn <1715>,
and will increase <7235> it, and lay <5414> no <3808> famine
<7458> upon you.
30 And I will multiply <7235> the fruit <6529> of the tree
<6086>, and the increase <8570> of the field <7704>, that ye
shall receive <3947> no <3808> more <5750> reproach <2781> of
famine <7458> among the heathen <1471>.
31 Then shall ye remember <2142> your own evil <7451> ways
<1870>, and your doings <4611> that [were] not good <2896>, and
shall lothe <6962> yourselves in your own sight <6440> for your
iniquities <5771> and for your abominations <8441>.
32 Not for your sakes <6616> do <6213> I [this], saith <5002>
the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>, be it known <3045> unto you: be
ashamed <0954> and confounded <3637> for your own ways <1870>, O
house <1004> of Israel <3478>.
33 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; In the
day <3117> that I shall have cleansed <2891> you from all <3605>
your iniquities <5771> I will also cause [you] to dwell <3427>
in the cities <5892>, and the wastes <2723> shall be builded
<1129>.
34 And the desolate <8074> land <0776> shall be tilled <5647>,
whereas it lay desolate <8077> in the sight <5869> of all <3605>
that passed <5674> by.
35 And they shall say <0559>, This <1977> land <0776> that was
desolate <8074> is become <1961> like the garden <1588> of Eden
<5731>; and the waste <2720> and desolate <8074> and ruined
<2040> cities <5892> [are become] fenced <1219>, [and] are
inhabited <3427>.
36 Then the heathen <1471> that are left <7604> round <5439>
about you shall know <3045> that I the LORD <3068> build <1129>
the ruined <2040> [places, and] plant <5193> that that was
desolate <8074>: I the LORD <3068> have spoken <1696> [it], and
I will do <6213> [it].
37 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; I will
yet <5750> [for] this be enquired <1875> of by the house <1004>
of Israel <3478>, to do <6213> [it] for them; I will increase
<7235> them with men <0120> like a flock <6629>.
38 As the holy <6944> flock <6629>, as the flock <6629> of
Jerusalem <3389> in her solemn <4150> feasts <4150>; so <3651>
shall the waste <2720> cities <5892> be filled <4390> with
flocks <6629> of men <0120>: and they shall know <3045> that I
[am] the LORD <3068>.
Ezekiel 37
1. The hand <3027> of the LORD <3068> was upon me, and carried
<3318> me out in the spirit <7307> of the LORD <3068>, and set
<5117> me down in the midst <8432> of the valley <1237> which
<1958> [was] full <4392> of bones <6106>,
2 And caused me to pass <5674> by them round <5439> about: and,
behold <2009>, [there were] very <3966> many <7227> in the open
<6440> valley <1237>; and, lo <2009>, [they were] very <3966>
dry <3002>.
3 And he said <0559> unto me, Son <1121> of man <0120>, can
these <4228> bones <6106> live <2421>? And I answered <0559>, O
Lord <0136> GOD <3069>, thou knowest <3045>.
4 Again he said <0559> unto me, Prophesy <5012> upon these
<4228> bones <6106>, and say <0559> unto them, O ye dry <3002>
bones <6106>, hear <8085> the word <1697> of the LORD <3068>.
5 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069> unto
these <4228> bones <6106>; Behold <2009>, I will cause breath
<7307> to enter <0935> into you, and ye shall live <2421>:
6 And I will lay <5414> sinews <1517> upon you, and will bring
<5927> up flesh <1320> upon you, and cover <7159> you with skin
<5785>, and put <5414> breath <7307> in you, and ye shall live
<2421>; and ye shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
7 So I prophesied <5012> as I was commanded <6680>: and as I
prophesied <5012>, there was a noise <6963>, and behold <2009> a
shaking <7494>, and the bones <6106> came <7126> together, bone
<6106> to his bone <6106>.
8 And when I beheld <7200>, lo <2009>, the sinews <1517> and
the flesh <1320> came <5927> up upon them, and the skin <5785>
covered <7159> them above <4605>: but [there was] no <0369>
breath <7307> in them.
9 Then said <0559> he unto me, Prophesy <5012> unto the wind
<7307>, prophesy <5012>, son <1121> of man <0120>, and say
<0559> to the wind <7307>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>; Come <0935> from the four <0702> winds <7307>,
O breath <7307>, and breathe <5301> upon these <4228> slain
<2026>, that they may live <2421>.
10 So I prophesied <5012> as he commanded <6680> me, and the
breath <7307> came <0935> into them, and they lived <2421>, and
stood <5975> up upon their feet <7272>, an exceeding <3966>
great <1419> army <2428>.
11 Then he said <0559> unto me, Son <1121> of man <0120>, these
<4228> bones <6106> are the whole <3605> house <1004> of Israel
<3478>: behold <2009>, they say <0559>, Our bones <6106> are
dried <3001>, and our hope <8615> is lost <6>: we are cut <1504>
off for our parts <2506>.
12 Therefore <3651> prophesy <5012> and say <0559> unto them,
Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Behold
<2009>, O my people <5971>, I will open <6605> your graves
<6913>, and cause you to come <5927> up out of your graves
<6913>, and bring <0935> you into <0413> the land <0127> of
Israel <3478>.
13 And ye shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>, when I
have opened <6605> your graves <6913>, O my people <5971>, and
brought <5927> you up out of your graves <6913>,
14 And shall put <5414> my spirit <7307> in you, and ye shall
live <2421>, and I shall place <3241> you in your own land
<0127>: then shall ye know <3045> that I the LORD <3068> have
spoken <1696> [it], and performed <6213> [it], saith <5002> the
LORD <0136>.
15. The word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> again unto
me, saying <0559>,
16 Moreover, thou son <1121> of man <0120>, take <3947> thee
one <0259> stick <6086>, and write <3789> upon it, For Judah
<3063>, and for the children <1121> of Israel <3478> his
companions <2270>: then take <3947> another <0259> stick <6086>,
and write <3789> upon it, For Joseph <3130>, the stick <6086> of
Ephraim <0669>, and [for] all <3605> the house <1004> of Israel
<3478> his companions <2270>:
17 And join <7126> them one <0259> to another <0259> into one
<0259> stick <6086>; and they shall become <1961> one <0259> in
thine hand <3027>.
18 And when <3588> the children <1121> of thy people <5971>
shall speak <0559> unto thee, saying <0559>, Wilt thou not shew
<5046> us what <4100> thou [meanest] by these <4228>?
19 Say <1696> unto them, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>; Behold <2009>, I will take <3947> the stick
<6086> of Joseph <3130>, which <0834> [is] in the hand <3027> of
Ephraim <0669>, and the tribes <7626> of Israel <3478> his
fellows <2270>, and will put <5414> them with him, [even <0853>]
with the stick <6086> of Judah <3063>, and make <6213> them one
<0259> stick <6086>, and they shall be one <0259> in mine hand
<3027>.
20 And the sticks <6086> whereon thou writest <3789> shall be
in thine hand <3027> before their eyes <5869>.
21 And say <1696> unto them, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>; Behold <2009>, I will take <3947> the
children <1121> of Israel <3478> from among <0996> the heathen
<1471>, whither they be gone <1980>, and will gather <6908> them
on every <5437> side <5439>, and bring <0935> them into <0413>
their own land <0127>:
22 And I will make <6213> them one <0259> nation <1471> in the
land <0776> upon the mountains <2022> of Israel <3478>; and one
<0259> king <4428> shall be king <4428> to them all <3605>: and
they shall be no <3808> more <5750> two <8147> nations <1471>,
neither <3808> shall they be divided <2673> into two <8147>
kingdoms <4467> any more <5750> at all:
23 Neither <3808> shall they defile <2930> themselves any more
<5750> with their idols <1544>, nor with their detestable <8251>
things, nor with any <3605> of their transgressions <6588>: but
I will save <3467> them out of all <3605> their dwellingplaces
<4186>, wherein <0834> they have sinned <2398>, and will cleanse
<2891> them: so shall they be my people <5971>, and I will be
their God <0430>.
24 And David <1732> my servant <5650> [shall be] king <4428>
over <5921> them; and they all <3605> shall have <1961> one
<0259> shepherd <7462>: they shall also walk <3212> in my
judgments <4941>, and observe <8104> my statutes <2708>, and do
<6213> them.
25 And they shall dwell <3427> in the land <0776> that I have
given <5414> unto Jacob <3290> my servant <5650>, wherein <0834>
your fathers <1> have dwelt <3427>; and they shall dwell <3427>
therein, [even] they, and their children <1121>, and their
children's <1121> children <1121> for ever <5769>: and my
servant <5650> David <1732> [shall be] their prince <5387> for
ever <5769>.
26 Moreover I will make <3772> a covenant <1285> of peace
<7965> with them; it shall be an everlasting <5769> covenant
<1285> with them: and I will place <5414> them, and multiply
<7235> them, and will set <5414> my sanctuary <4720> in the
midst <8432> of them for evermore <5769>.
27 My tabernacle <4908> also shall be with them: yea, I will be
their God <0430>, and they shall be my people <5971>.
28 And the heathen <1471> shall know <3045> that I the LORD
<3068> do sanctify <6942> Israel <3478>, when my sanctuary
<4720> shall be in the midst <8432> of them for evermore <5769>.
Ezekiel 38
1. And the word <1697> of the LORD <3068> came <1961> unto me,
saying <0559>,
2 Son <1121> of man <0120>, set <7760> thy face <6440> against
<0413> Gog <1463>, the land <0776> of Magog <4031>, the chief
<7218> prince <5387> of Meshech <4902> and Tubal <8422>, and
prophesy <5012> against <5921> him,
3 And say <0559>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>; Behold <2005>, I [am] against <0413> thee, O Gog <1463>,
the chief <7218> prince <5387> of Meshech <4902> and Tubal
<8422>:
4 And I will turn <7725> thee back <7725>, and put <5414> hooks
<2397> into thy jaws <3895>, and I will bring <3318> thee forth
<3318>, and all <3605> thine army <2428>, horses <5483> and
horsemen <6571>, all <3605> of them clothed <3847> with all
<3605> sorts <4358> [of armour <3627>, even] a great <7227>
company <6951> [with] bucklers <6793> and shields <4043>, all
<3605> of them handling <8610> swords <2719>:
5 Persia <6539>, Ethiopia <3568>, and Libya <6316> with them;
all <3605> of them with shield <4043> and helmet <3553>:
6 Gomer <1586>, and all <3605> his bands <0102>; the house
<1004> of Togarmah <8425> of the north <6828> quarters <3411>,
and all <3605> his bands <0102>: [and] many <7227> people <5971>
with thee.
7 Be thou prepared <3559>, and prepare <3559> for thyself, thou,
and all <3605> thy company <6951> that are assembled <6950>
unto thee, and be thou a guard <4929> unto them.
8 After many <7227> days <3117> thou shalt be visited <6485>:
in the latter <0319> years <8141> thou shalt come <0935> into
<0413> the land <0776> [that is] brought <7725> back <7725> from
the sword <2719>, [and is] gathered <6908> out of many <7227>
people <5971>, against <5921> the mountains <2022> of Israel
<3478>, which <0834> have been <1961> always <8548> waste <2723>:
but it is brought <3318> forth <3318> out of the nations <1471>,
and they shall dwell <3427> safely <0983> all <3605> of them.
9 Thou shalt ascend <5927> and come <0935> like a storm <7722>,
thou shalt be like a cloud <6051> to cover <3680> the land
<0776>, thou, and all <3605> thy bands <0102>, and many <7227>
people <5971> with thee.
10 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; It
shall also come <1961> to pass, [that] at the same <1931> time
<3117> shall things <1697> come <5927> into <5921> thy mind
<3824>, and thou shalt think <2803> an evil <7451> thought
<4284>:
11 And thou shalt say <0559>, I will go <5927> up to the land
<0776> of unwalled villages <6519>; I will go <0935> to them
that are at rest <8252>, that dwell <3427> safely <0983>, all
<3605> of them dwelling <3427> without <0369> walls <2346>, and
having neither <0369> bars <1280> nor gates <1817>,
12 To take <7997> a spoil <7998>, and to take <0962> a prey
<0957>; to turn <7725> thine hand <3027> upon the desolate
<2723> places [that are now] inhabited <3427>, and upon the
people <5971> [that are] gathered <0622> out of the nations
<1471>, which have gotten <6213> cattle <4735> and goods <7075>,
that dwell <3427> in the midst <2872> of the land <0776>.
13 Sheba <7614>, and Dedan <1719>, and the merchants <5503> of
Tarshish <8659>, with all <3605> the young <3715> lions <3715>
thereof, shall say <0559> unto thee, Art thou come <0935> to
take <7997> a spoil <7998>? hast thou gathered <6950> thy
company <6951> to take <0962> a prey <0957>? to carry <5375>
away silver <3701> and gold <2091>, to take <3947> away cattle
<4735> and goods <7075>, to take <3947> a great <1419> spoil
<7998>?
14. Therefore <3651>, son <1121> of man <0120>, prophesy <5012>
and say <0559> unto Gog <1463>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the
Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; In that day <3117> when my people <5971>
of Israel <3478> dwelleth <3427> safely <0983>, shalt thou not
know <3045> [it]?
15 And thou shalt come <0935> from thy place <4725> out of the
north <6828> parts <3411>, thou, and many <7227> people <5971>
with thee, all <3605> of them riding <7392> upon horses <5483>,
a great <1419> company <6951>, and a mighty <7227> army <2428>:
16 And thou shalt come <5927> up against <5921> my people
<5971> of Israel <3478>, as a cloud <6051> to cover <3680> the
land <0776>; it shall be in the latter <0319> days <3117>, and I
will bring <0935> thee against <5921> my land <0776>, that the
heathen <1471> may know <3045> me, when I shall be sanctified
<6942> in thee, O Gog <1463>, before their eyes <5869>.
17 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; [Art]
thou he of whom <0834> I have spoken <1696> in old <6931> time
<3117> by my servants <5650> the prophets <5030> of Israel
<3478>, which prophesied <5012> in those <1992> days <3117>
[many] years <8141> that I would bring <0935> thee against
<5921> them?
18 And it shall come <1961> to pass at the same <1931> time
<3117> when <3117> Gog <1463> shall come <0935> against <5921>
the land <0127> of Israel <3478>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136>
GOD <3069>, [that] my fury <2534> shall come <5927> up in my
face <0639>.
19 For in my jealousy <7068> [and] in the fire <0784> of my
wrath <5678> have I spoken <1696>, Surely in that day <3117>
there shall be a great <1419> shaking <7494> in the land <0127>
of Israel <3478>;
20 So that the fishes <1709> of the sea <3220>, and the fowls
<5775> of the heaven <8064>, and the beasts <2416> of the field
<7704>, and all <3605> creeping <7431> things that creep <7430>
upon the earth <0127>, and all <3605> the men <0120> that [are]
upon the face <6440> of the earth <0127>, shall shake <7493> at
my presence <6440>, and the mountains <2022> shall be thrown
<2040> down <2040>, and the steep <4095> places shall fall
<5307>, and every <3605> wall <2346> shall fall <5307> to the
ground <0776>.
21 And I will call <7121> for a sword <2719> against <5921> him
throughout all <3605> my mountains <2022>, saith <5002> the Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>: every man's <0376> sword <2719> shall be
against his brother <0251>.
22 And I will plead <8199> against him with pestilence <1698>
and with blood <1818>; and I will rain <4305> upon him, and upon
his bands <0102>, and upon the many <7227> people <5971> that
[are] with him, an overflowing <7857> rain <1653>, and great
<0417> hailstones, fire <0784>, and brimstone <1614>.
23 Thus will I magnify <1431> myself, and sanctify <6942>
myself; and I will be known <3045> in the eyes <5869> of many
<7227> nations <1471>, and they shall know <3045> that I [am]
the LORD <3068>.
Ezekiel 39
1. Therefore <3651>, thou son <1121> of man <0120>, prophesy
<5012> against <5921> Gog <1463>, and say <0559>, Thus <3541>
saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Behold <2005>, I [am]
against <0413> thee, O Gog <1463>, the chief <7218> prince
<5387> of Meshech <4902> and Tubal <8422>:
2 And I will turn <7725> thee back <7725>, and leave <8338> but
the sixth <8338> part of thee, and will cause thee to come
<5927> up from the north <6828> parts <3411>, and will bring
<0935> thee upon the mountains <2022> of Israel <3478>:
3 And I will smite <5221> thy bow <7198> out of thy left <8040>
hand <3027>, and will cause thine arrows <2671> to fall <5307>
out of thy right <3225> hand <3027>.
4 Thou shalt fall <5307> upon the mountains <2022> of Israel
<3478>, thou, and all <3605> thy bands <0102>, and the people
<5971> that [is] with thee: I will give <5414> thee unto the
ravenous <5861> birds <6833> of every <3605> sort <3671>, and
[to] the beasts <2416> of the field <7704> to be devoured <0402>.
5 Thou shalt fall <5307> upon the open <6440> field <7704>: for
I have spoken <1696> [it], saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>.
6 And I will send <7971> a fire <0784> on Magog <4031>, and
among them that dwell <3427> carelessly <0983> in the isles
<0339>: and they shall know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>.
7 So will I make my holy <6944> name <8034> known <3045> in the
midst <8432> of my people <5971> Israel <3478>; and I will not
[let them] pollute <2490> my holy <6944> name <8034> any more
<5750>: and the heathen <1471> shall know <3045> that I [am] the
LORD <3068>, the Holy <6918> One in Israel <3478>.
8. Behold <2009>, it is come <0935>, and it is done, saith
<5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; this <1931> [is] the day
<3117> whereof <0834> I have spoken <1696>.
9 And they that dwell <3427> in the cities <5892> of Israel
<3478> shall go <3318> forth <3318>, and shall set <1197> on
fire <0784> and burn <5400> the weapons <5402>, both the shields
<4043> and the bucklers <6793>, the bows <7198> and the arrows
<2671>, and the handstaves, and the spears <7420>, and they
shall burn <1197> them with fire <0784> seven <7651> years
<8141>:
10 So that they shall take <5375> no <3808> wood <6086> out of
the field <7704>, neither <3808> cut <2404> down [any] out of
the forests <3293>; for they shall burn <1197> the weapons
<5402> with fire <5135>: and they shall spoil <7997> those that
spoiled <7997> them, and rob <0962> those that robbed <0962>
them, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
11 And it shall come <1961> to pass in that day <3117>, [that]
I will give <5414> unto Gog <1463> a place <4725> there <8033>
of graves <6913> in Israel <3478>, the valley <1516> of the
passengers <5674> on the east <6926> of the sea <3220>: and it
shall stop <2629> the [noses] of the passengers <5674>: and
there <8033> shall they bury <6912> Gog <1463> and all <3605>
his multitude <1995>: and they shall call <7121> [it] The valley
<1516> of Hamongog <1996>.
12 And seven <7651> months <2320> shall the house <1004> of
Israel <3478> be burying <6912> of them, that they may cleanse
<2891> the land <0776>.
13 Yea, all <3605> the people <5971> of the land <0776> shall
bury <6912> [them]; and it shall be to them a renown <8034> the
day <3117> that I shall be glorified <3513>, saith <5002> the
Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
14 And they shall sever <0914> out men <0582> of continual
<8548> employment, passing <5674> through the land <0776> to
bury <6912> with the passengers <5674> those that remain <3498>
upon the face <6440> of the earth <0776>, to cleanse <2891> it:
after the end <7097> of seven <7651> months <2320> shall they
search <2713>.
15 And the passengers <5674> [that] pass <5674> through the
land <0776>, when [any] seeth <7200> a man's <0120> bone <6106>,
then shall he set <1129> up a sign <6725> by it, till <5704> the
buriers <6912> have buried <6912> it in the valley <1516> of
Hamongog <1996>.
16 And also <1571> the name <8034> of the city <5892> [shall
be] Hamonah <1997>. Thus shall they cleanse <2891> the land
<0776>.
17 And, thou son <1121> of man <0120>, thus <3541> saith <0559>
the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Speak <0559> unto every <3605>
feathered <3671> fowl <6833>, and to every <3605> beast <2416>
of the field <7704>, Assemble <6908> yourselves, and come <0935>;
gather <0622> yourselves on every <5437> side <5439> to my
sacrifice <2077> that I do sacrifice <2076> for you, [even] a
great <1419> sacrifice <2077> upon the mountains <2022> of
Israel <3478>, that ye may eat <0398> flesh <1320>, and drink
<8354> blood <1818>.
18 Ye shall eat <0398> the flesh <1320> of the mighty <1368>,
and drink <8354> the blood <1818> of the princes <5387> of the
earth <0776>, of rams <0352>, of lambs <3733>, and of goats
<6260>, of bullocks <6499>, all <3605> of them fatlings <4806>
of Bashan <1316>.
19 And ye shall eat <0398> fat <2459> till ye be full <7654>,
and drink <8354> blood <1818> till ye be drunken <7943>, of my
sacrifice <2076> which <0834> I have sacrificed <2076> for you.
20 Thus ye shall be filled <7646> at <5921> my table <7979>
with horses <5483> and chariots <7393>, with mighty <1368> men,
and with all <3605> men <0376> of war <4421>, saith <5002> the
Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
21 And I will set <5414> my glory <3519> among the heathen
<1471>, and all <3605> the heathen <1471> shall see <7200> my
judgment <4941> that I have executed <6213>, and my hand <3027>
that I have laid <7760> upon them.
22 So the house <1004> of Israel <3478> shall know <3045> that
I [am] the LORD <3068> their God <0430> from that day <3117> and
forward <1973>.
23. And the heathen <1471> shall know <3045> that the house
<1004> of Israel <3478> went into captivity <1540> for their
iniquity <5771>: because they trespassed <4603> against me,
therefore hid <5641> I my face <6440> from them, and gave <5414>
them into the hand <3027> of their enemies <6862>: so fell
<5307> they all <3605> by the sword <2719>.
24 According to their uncleanness <2932> and according to their
transgressions <6588> have I done <6213> unto them, and hid
<5641> my face <6440> from them.
25 Therefore <3651> thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136>
GOD <3069>; Now <6258> will I bring <7725> again <7725> the
captivity <7622> of Jacob <3290>, and have mercy <7355> upon the
whole <3605> house <1004> of Israel <3478>, and will be jealous
<7065> for my holy <6944> name <8034>;
26 After that they have borne <5375> their shame <3639>, and
all <3605> their trespasses <4604> whereby <0834> they have
trespassed <4603> against me, when they dwelt <3427> safely
<0983> in their land <0127>, and none <0369> made [them] afraid
<2729>.
27 When I have brought <7725> them again <7725> from the people
<5971>, and gathered <6908> them out of their enemies <0341>'
lands <0776>, and am sanctified <6942> in them in the sight
<5869> of many <7227> nations <1471>;
28 Then shall they know <3045> that I [am] the LORD <3068>
their God <0430>, which caused them to be led into captivity
<1473> among <0413> the heathen <1471>: but I have gathered
<3664> them unto their own land <0127>, and have left <3498>
none <3808> of them any more <5750> there <8033>.
29 Neither <3808> will I hide <5641> my face <6440> any more
<5750> from them: for I have poured <8210> out my spirit <7307>
upon the house <1004> of Israel <3478>, saith <5002> the Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>.
Ezekiel 40
1. In the five <2568> and twentieth <6242> year <8141> of our
captivity <1546>, in the beginning <7218> of the year <8141>, in
the tenth <6218> [day] of the month <2320>, in the fourteenth
year <8141> after <0310> that the city <5892> was smitten <5221>,
in the selfsame day <3117> the hand <3027> of the LORD <3068>
was upon me, and brought <0935> me thither <8033>.
2 In the visions <4759> of God <0430> brought <0935> he me into
<0413> the land <0776> of Israel <3478>, and set <5117> me upon
a very <3966> high <1364> mountain <2022>, by which [was] as the
frame <4011> of a city <5892> on the south <5045>.
3 And he brought <0935> me thither <8033>, and, behold <2009>,
[there was] a man <0376>, whose appearance <4758> [was] like the
appearance <4758> of brass <5178>, with a line <6616> of flax
<6593> in his hand <3027>, and a measuring <4060> reed <7070>;
and he stood <5975> in the gate <8179>.
4 And the man <0376> said <1696> unto me, Son <1121> of man
<0120>, behold <7200> with thine eyes <5869>, and hear <8085>
with thine ears <0241>, and set <7760> thine heart <3820> upon
all <3605> that I shall shew <7200> thee; for to the intent
<4616> that I might shew <7200> [them] unto thee [art] thou
brought <0935> hither: declare <5046> all <3605> that thou seest
<7200> to the house <1004> of Israel <3478>.
5. And behold <2009> a wall <2346> on the outside <2351> of the
house <1004> round <5439> about, and in the man's hand <3027> a
measuring <4060> reed <7070> of six <8337> cubits <0520> [long]
by the cubit <0520> and an hand <2948> breadth <2948>: so he
measured <4058> the breadth <7341> of the building <1146>, one
<0259> reed <7070>; and the height <6967>, one <0259> reed
<7070>.
6 Then came <0935> he unto the gate <8179> which <0834> looketh
<6440> toward <1870> the east <6921>, and went <5927> up the
stairs <4609> thereof, and measured <4058> the threshold <5592>
of the gate <8179>, [which was] one <0259> reed <7070> broad
<7341>; and the other <0259> threshold <5592> [of the gate,
which was] one <0259> reed <7070> broad <7341>.
7 And [every] little chamber <8372> [was] one <0259> reed
<7070> long <0753>, and one <0259> reed <7070> broad <7341>; and
between <0996> the little chambers <8372> [were] five <2568>
cubits <0520>; and the threshold <5592> of the gate <8179> by
the porch <0197> of the gate <8179> within <1004> [was] one
<0259> reed <7070>.
8 He measured <4058> also the porch <0197> of the gate <8179>
within <1004>, one <0259> reed <7070>.
9 Then measured <4058> he the porch <0197> of the gate <8179>,
eight <8083> cubits <0520>; and the posts <0352> thereof, two
<8147> cubits <0520>; and the porch <0197> of the gate <8179>
[was] inward <1004>.
10 And the little chambers <8372> of the gate <8179> eastward
[were] three <7969> on this <6311> side <6311>, and three <7969>
on that side <6311>; they three <7969> [were] of one <0259>
measure <4060>: and the posts <0352> had one <0259> measure
<4060> on this <6311> side and on that side.
11 And he measured <4058> the breadth <7341> of the entry
<6607> of the gate <8179>, ten <6235> cubits <0520>; [and] the
length <0753> of the gate <8179>, thirteen cubits <0520>.
12 The space <1366> also before <6440> the little chambers
<8372> [was] one <0259> cubit <0520> [on this side], and the
space <1366> [was] one cubit <0520> on that side: and the little
chambers <8372> [were] six <8337> cubits <0520> on this <6311>
side, and six <8337> cubits <0520> on that side.
13 He measured <4058> then the gate <8179> from the roof <1406>
of [one] little chamber <8372> to the roof <1406> of another:
the breadth <7341> [was] five <2568> and twenty <6242> cubits
<0520>, door <6607> against <5048> door <6607>.
14 He made <6213> also posts <0352> of threescore <7657> cubits
<0520>, even unto the post <0352> of the court <2691> round
<5439> about the gate <8179>.
15 And from the face <6440> of the gate <8179> of the entrance
<2978> unto the face <6440> of the porch <0197> of the inner
<6442> gate <8179> [were] fifty <2572> cubits <0520>.
16 And [there were] narrow <0331> windows <2474> to the little
chambers <8372>, and to their posts <0352> within <6441> the
gate <8179> round <5439> about, and likewise <3651> to the
arches <0361>: and windows <2474> [were] round <5439> about
inward <6441>: and upon [each] post <0352> [were] palm <8561>
trees.
17 Then brought <0935> he me into <0413> the outward <2435>
court <2691>, and, lo <2009>, [there were] chambers <3957>, and
a pavement <7531> made <6213> for the court <2691> round <5439>
about: thirty <7970> chambers <3957> [were] upon the pavement
<7531>.
18 And the pavement <7531> by the side <3802> of the gates
<8179> over <5980> against <5980> the length <0753> of the gates
<8179> [was] the lower <8481> pavement <7531>.
19 Then he measured <4058> the breadth <7341> from the
forefront <6440> of the lower <8481> gate <8179> unto the
forefront <6440> of the inner <6442> court <2691> without <2351>,
an hundred <3967> cubits <0520> eastward <6921> and northward
<6828>.
20 And the gate <8179> of the outward <2435> court <2691> that
looked <6440> toward <1870> the north <6828>, he measured <4058>
the length <0753> thereof, and the breadth <7341> thereof.
21 And the little chambers <8372> thereof [were] three <7969>
on this <6311> side and three <7969> on that side; and the posts
<0352> thereof and the arches <0361> thereof were after the
measure <4060> of the first <7223> gate <8179>: the length
<0753> thereof [was] fifty <2572> cubits <0520>, and the breadth
<7341> five <2568> and twenty <6242> cubits <0520>.
22 And their windows <2474>, and their arches <0361>, and their
palm <8561> trees, [were] after the measure <4060> of the gate
<8179> that looketh <6440> toward <1870> the east <6921>; and
they went <5927> up unto it by seven <7651> steps <4609>; and
the arches <0361> thereof [were] before <6440> them.
23 And the gate <8179> of the inner <6442> court <2691> [was]
over <5048> against <5048> the gate <8179> toward the north
<6828>, and toward the east <6921>; and he measured <4058> from
gate <8179> to gate <8179> an hundred <3967> cubits <0520>.
24 After that he brought <3212> me toward <1870> the south
<1864>, and behold <2009> a gate <8179> toward <1870> the south
<1864>: and he measured <4058> the posts <0352> thereof and the
arches <0361> thereof according to these <4228> measures <4060>.
25 And [there were] windows <2474> in it and in the arches
<0361> thereof round <5439> about, like those <0428> windows
<2474>: the length <0753> [was] fifty <2572> cubits <0520>, and
the breadth <7341> five <2568> and twenty <6242> cubits <0520>.
26 And [there were] seven <7651> steps <4609> to go <5930> up
to it, and the arches <0361> thereof [were] before <6440> them:
and it had palm <8561> trees, one <0259> on this <6311> side,
and another <0259> on that side, upon the posts <0352> thereof.
27. And [there was] a gate <8179> in the inner <6442> court
<2691> toward <1870> the south <1864>: and he measured <4058>
from gate <8179> to gate <8179> toward <1870> the south <1864>
an hundred <3967> cubits <0520>.
28 And he brought <0935> me to the inner <6442> court <2691> by
the south <1864> gate <8179>: and he measured <4058> the south
<1864> gate <8179> according to these <4228> measures <4060>;
29 And the little chambers <8372> thereof, and the posts <0352>
thereof, and the arches <0361> thereof, according to these
<4228> measures <4060>: and [there were] windows <2474> in it
and in the arches <0361> thereof round <5439> about: [it was]
fifty <2572> cubits <0520> long <0753>, and five <2568> and
twenty <6242> cubits <0520> broad <7341>.
30 And the arches <0361> round <5439> about [were] five <2568>
and twenty <6242> cubits <0520> long <0753>, and five <2568>
cubits <0520> broad <7341>.
31 And the arches <0361> thereof [were] toward <0413> the utter
<2435> court <2691>; and palm <8561> trees [were] upon the posts
<0352> thereof: and the going <4608> up to it [had] eight <8083>
steps <4609>.
32 And he brought <0935> me into <0413> the inner <6442> court
<2691> toward <1870> the east <6921>: and he measured <4058> the
gate <8179> according to these <4228> measures <4060>.
33 And the little chambers <8372> thereof, and the posts <0352>
thereof, and the arches <0361> thereof, [were] according to
these <4228> measures <4060>: and [there were] windows <2474>
therein and in the arches <0361> thereof round <5439> about: [it
was] fifty <2572> cubits <0520> long <0753>, and five <2568> and
twenty <6242> cubits <0520> broad <7341>.
34 And the arches <0361> thereof [were] toward the outward
<2435> court <2691>; and palm <8561> trees [were] upon the posts
<0352> thereof, on this <6311> side, and on that side: and the
going <4608> up to it [had] eight <8083> steps <4609>.
35 And he brought <0935> me to the north <6828> gate <8179>,
and measured <4058> [it] according to these <4228> measures
<4060>;
36 The little chambers <8372> thereof, the posts <0352> thereof,
and the arches <0361> thereof, and the windows <2474> to it
round <5439> about: the length <0753> [was] fifty <2572> cubits
<0520>, and the breadth <7341> five <2568> and twenty <6242>
cubits <0520>.
37 And the posts <0352> thereof [were] toward the utter <2435>
court <2691>; and palm <8561> trees [were] upon the posts <0352>
thereof, on this <6311> side, and on that side: and the going
<4608> up to it [had] eight <8083> steps <4609>.
38 And the chambers <3957> and the entries <6607> thereof
[were] by the posts <0352> of the gates <8179>, where <8033>
they washed <1740> the burnt <5930> offering.
39. And in the porch <0197> of the gate <8179> [were] two
<8147> tables <7979> on this <6311> side, and two tables <7979>
on that side, to slay <7819> thereon <5921> the burnt <5930>
offering and the sin <2403> offering and the trespass <0817>
offering.
40 And at <0413> the side <3802> without <2351>, as one <0259>
goeth <5927> up to the entry <6607> of the north <6828> gate
<8179>, [were] two <8147> tables <7979>; and on <0413> the other
<0312> side <3802>, which <0834> [was] at the porch <0197> of
the gate <8179>, [were] two <8147> tables <7979>.
41 Four <0702> tables <7979> [were] on this <6311> side <3802>,
and four <0702> tables <7979> on that side <3802>, by the side
<3802> of the gate <8179>; eight <8083> tables <7979>, whereupon
<0413> they slew <7819> [their sacrifices].
42 And the four <0702> tables <7979> [were] of hewn <1496>
stone <68> for the burnt <5930> offering, of a cubit <0520> and
an half <2677> long <0753>, and a cubit <0520> and an half
<2677> broad <7341>, and one <0259> cubit <0520> high <1363>:
whereupon <0413> also they laid <3240> the instruments <3627>
wherewith <0834> they slew <7819> the burnt <5930> offering and
the sacrifice <2077>.
43 And within <1004> [were] hooks <8240>, an hand <2948> broad,
fastened <3559> round <5439> about: and upon the tables <7979>
[was] the flesh <1320> of the offering <7133>.
44 And without <2351> the inner <6442> gate <8179> [were] the
chambers <3957> of the singers <7891> in the inner <6442> court
<2691>, which <0834> [was] at <0413> the side <3802> of the
north <6828> gate <8179>; and their prospect <6440> [was] toward
<1870> the south <1864>: one <0259> at <0413> the side <3802> of
the east <6921> gate <8179> [having] the prospect <6440> toward
<1870> the north <6828>.
45 And he said <1696> unto me, This <2090> chamber <3957>,
whose <0834> prospect <6440> [is] toward <1870> the south <1864>,
[is] for the priests <3548>, the keepers <8104> of the charge
<4931> of the house <1004>.
46 And the chamber <3957> whose <0834> prospect <6440> [is]
toward <1870> the north <6828> [is] for the priests <3548>, the
keepers <8104> of the charge <4931> of the altar <4196>: these
<1992> [are] the sons <1121> of Zadok <6659> among the sons
<1121> of Levi <3878>, which come <7131> near <7131> to the LORD
<3068> to minister <8334> unto him.
47 So he measured <4058> the court <2691>, an hundred <3967>
cubits <0520> long <0753>, and an hundred <3967> cubits <0520>
broad <7341>, foursquare <7251>; and the altar <4196> [that was]
before <6440> the house <1004>.
48 And he brought <0935> me to the porch <0197> of the house
<1004>, and measured <4058> [each] post <0352> of the porch
<0197>, five <2568> cubits <0520> on this <6311> side, and five
<2568> cubits <0520> on that side: and the breadth <7341> of the
gate <8179> [was] three <7969> cubits <0520> on this <6311> side,
and three <7969> cubits <0520> on that side.
49 The length <0753> of the porch <0197> [was] twenty <6242>
cubits <0520>, and the breadth <7341> eleven cubits <0520>; and
[he brought me] by the steps <4609> whereby <0834> they went
<5927> up to it: and [there were] pillars <5982> by the posts
<0352>, one <0259> on this <6311> side, and another <0259> on
that side.
Ezekiel 41
1. Afterward he brought <0935> me to the temple <1964>, and
measured <4058> the posts <0352>, six <8337> cubits <0520> broad
<7341> on the one side <6311>, and six <8337> cubits <0520>
broad <7341> on the other <6311> side, [which was] the breadth
<7341> of the tabernacle <0168>.
2 And the breadth <7341> of the door <6607> [was] ten <6235>
cubits <0520>; and the sides <3802> of the door <6607> [were]
five <2568> cubits <0520> on the one side, and five <2568>
cubits <0520> on the other <6311> side: and he measured <4058>
the length <0753> thereof, forty <0705> cubits <0520>: and the
breadth <7341>, twenty <6242> cubits <0520>.
3 Then went <0935> he inward <6441>, and measured <4058> the
post <0352> of the door <6607>, two <8147> cubits <0520>; and
the door <6607>, six <8337> cubits <0520>; and the breadth
<7341> of the door <6607>, seven <7651> cubits <0520>.
4 So he measured <4058> the length <0753> thereof, twenty
<6242> cubits <0520>; and the breadth <7341>, twenty <6242>
cubits <0520>, before the temple <1964>: and he said <0559> unto
me, This <2088> [is] the most <6944> holy <6944> [place].
5 After he measured <4058> the wall <7023> of the house <1004>,
six <8337> cubits <0520>; and the breadth <7341> of [every] side
<6763> chamber <6763>, four <0702> cubits <0520>, round <5439>
about the house <1004> on every <5437> side <5439>.
6 And the side <6763> chambers <6763> [were] three <7969>, one
over <0413> another, and thirty <7970> in order <6471>; and they
entered <0935> into the wall <7023> which <0834> [was] of the
house <1004> for the side <6763> chambers <6763> round <5439>
about, that they might have <1961> hold <0270>, but they had
<1961> not hold <0270> in the wall <7023> of the house <1004>.
7 And [there was] an enlarging <7337>, and a winding <5437>
about still upward <4605> to the side <6763> chambers <6763>:
for the winding <4141> about of the house <1004> went still
upward <4605> round <5439> about the house <1004>: therefore the
breadth <7341> of the house <1004> [was still] upward <4605>,
and so increased <5927> [from] the lowest <8481> [chamber] to
the highest <5945> by the midst <8484>.
8 I saw <7200> also the height <1364> of the house <1004> round
<5439> about: the foundations <4328> of the side <6763> chambers
<6763> [were] a full <4393> reed <7070> of six <8337> great
<0679> cubits <0520>.
9 The thickness <7341> of the wall <7023>, which <0834> [was]
for the side <6763> chamber <6763> without <2351>, [was] five
<2568> cubits <0520>: and [that] which [was] left <3240> [was]
the place <1004> of the side <6763> chambers <6763> that [were]
within <1004>.
10 And between <0996> the chambers <3957> [was] the wideness
<7341> of twenty <6242> cubits <0520> round <5439> about the
house <1004> on every <5437> side <5439>.
11 And the doors <6607> of the side <6763> chambers <6763>
[were] toward <1870> [the place that was] left <3240>, one
<0259> door <6607> toward <1870> the north <6828>, and another
<0259> door <6607> toward <1870> the south <1864>: and the
breadth <7341> of the place <4725> that was left <3240> [was]
five <2568> cubits <0520> round <5439> about.
12. Now the building <1146> that [was] before the separate
<1508> place at the end <6285> toward <1870> the west <3220>
[was] seventy <7657> cubits <0520> broad <7341>; and the wall
<7023> of the building <1146> [was] five <2568> cubits <0520>
thick <7341> round <5439> about, and the length <0753> thereof
ninety <8673> cubits <0520>.
13 So he measured <4058> the house <1004>, an hundred <3967>
cubits <0520> long <0753>; and the separate <1508> place, and
the building <1140>, with the walls <7023> thereof, an hundred
<3967> cubits <0520> long <0753>;
14 Also the breadth <7341> of the face <6440> of the house
<1004>, and of the separate <1508> place toward the east <6921>,
an hundred <3967> cubits <0520>.
15 And he measured <4058> the length <0753> of the building
<1146> over against <6440> the separate <1508> place which
<0834> [was] behind <0310> it, and the galleries <0862> thereof
on the one side and on the other <6311> side, an hundred <3967>
cubits <0520>, with the inner <6442> temple <1964>, and the
porches <0197> of the court <2691>;
16 The door <5592> posts <5592>, and the narrow <0331> windows
<2474>, and the galleries <0862> round <5439> about on their
three <7969> stories, over <5048> against <5048> the door <5592>,
cieled <7824> with wood <6086> round <5439> about, and from the
ground <0776> up to the windows <2474>, and the windows <2474>
[were] covered <3680>;
17 To that above <5921> the door <6607>, even unto the inner
<6442> house <1004>, and without <2351>, and by all <3605> the
wall <7023> round <5439> about within <6442> and without <2435>,
by measure <4060>.
18 And [it was] made <6213> with cherubims <3742> and palm
trees, so that a palm tree [was] between <0996> a cherub <3742>
and a cherub <3742>; and [every] cherub <3742> had two <8147>
faces <6440>;
19 So that the face <6440> of a man <0120> [was] toward <0413>
the palm <8561> tree on the one side, and the face <6440> of a
young <3715> lion <3715> toward <0413> the palm <8561> tree on
the other <6311> side: [it was] made <6213> through <0413> all
<3605> the house <1004> round <5439> about.
20 From the ground <0776> unto above <5921> the door <6607>
[were] cherubims <3742> and palm <8561> trees made <6213>, and
[on] the wall <7023> of the temple <1964>.
21 The posts <4201> of the temple <1964> [were] squared <7251>,
[and] the face <6440> of the sanctuary <6944>; the appearance
<4758> [of the one] as the appearance <4758> [of the other].
22 The altar <4196> of wood <6086> [was] three <7969> cubits
<0520> high <1364>, and the length <0753> thereof two <8147>
cubits <0520>; and the corners <4740> thereof, and the length
<0753> thereof, and the walls <7023> thereof, [were] of wood
<6086>: and he said <1696> unto me, This <2088> [is] the table
<7979> that [is] before <6440> the LORD <3068>.
23 And the temple <1964> and the sanctuary <6944> had two
<8147> doors <1817>.
24 And the doors <1817> had two <8147> leaves <1817> [apiece],
two <8147> turning <4142> leaves <1817>; two <8147> [leaves] for
the one <0259> door <1817>, and two <8147> leaves <1817> for the
other <0312> [door <1817>].
25 And [there were] made <6213> on <0413> them, on <0413> the
doors <1817> of the temple <1964>, cherubims <3742> and palm
<8561> trees, like as [were] made <6213> upon the walls <7023>;
and [there were] thick <5645> planks <6086> upon the face <6440>
of the porch <0197> without <2351>.
26 And [there were] narrow <0331> windows <2474> and palm
<8561> trees on the one side and on the other <6311> side, on
<0413> the sides <3802> of the porch <0197>, and [upon] the side
<6763> chambers <6763> of the house <1004>, and thick planks
<5646>.
Ezekiel 42
1. Then he brought <3318> me forth <3318> into <0413> the utter
<2435> court <2691>, the way <1870> toward <1870> the north
<6828>: and he brought <0935> me into <0413> the chamber <3957>
that [was] over <5048> against <5048> the separate <1508> place,
and which <0834> [was] before <6440> the building <1146> toward
<0413> the north <6828>.
2 Before the length <0753> of an hundred <3967> cubits <0520>
[was] the north <6828> door <6607>, and the breadth <7341> [was]
fifty <2572> cubits <0520>.
3 Over <5048> against <5048> the twenty <6242> [cubits] which
<0834> [were] for the inner <6442> court <2691>, and over <5048>
against <5048> the pavement <7531> which <0834> [was] for the
utter <2435> court <2691>, [was] gallery <0862> against gallery
<0862> in three <7992> [stories].
4 And before <6440> the chambers <3957> [was] a walk <4109> of
ten <6235> cubits <0520> breadth <7341> inward <6442>, a way
<1870> of one <0259> cubit <0520>; and their doors <6607> toward
the north <6828>.
5 Now the upper <5945> chambers <3957> [were] shorter <7114>:
for the galleries <0862> were higher <3201> than these <2007>,
than the lower <8481>, and than the middlemost <8484> of the
building <1146>.
6 For they [were] in three <8027> [stories], but had not
pillars <5982> as the pillars <5982> of the courts <2691>:
therefore [the building] was straitened <0680> more than the
lowest <8481> and the middlemost <8484> from the ground <0776>.
7 And the wall <1447> that [was] without <2351> over <5980>
against <5980> the chambers <3957>, toward <1870> the utter
<2435> court <2691> on the forepart <6440> of the chambers
<3957>, the length <0753> thereof [was] fifty <2572> cubits
<0520>.
8 For the length <0753> of the chambers <3957> that [were] in
the utter <2435> court <2691> [was] fifty <2572> cubits <0520>:
and, lo <2009>, before the temple <1964> [were] an hundred
<3967> cubits <0520>.
9 And from under <8478> these <0428> chambers <3957> [was] the
entry <3996> on the east <6921> side <6921>, as one goeth <0935>
into them from the utter <2435> court <2691>.
10 The chambers <3957> [were] in the thickness <7341> of the
wall <1444> of the court <2691> toward <1870> the east <6921>,
over against <6440> the separate <1508> place, and over against
<6440> the building <1146>.
11 And the way <1870> before <6440> them [was] like the
appearance <4758> of the chambers <3957> which <0834> [were]
toward <1870> the north <6828>, as long <0753> as they, [and] as
broad <7342> as they: and all <3605> their goings <4161> out
[were] both according to their fashions <4941>, and according to
their doors <6607>.
12 And according to the doors <6607> of the chambers <3957>
that [were] toward <1870> the south <1864> [was] a door <6607>
in the head <7218> of the way <1870>, [even] the way <1870>
directly <1903> before <6440> the wall <1448> toward <1870> the
east <6921>, as one entereth <0935> into them.
13 Then said <0559> he unto me, The north <6828> chambers
<3957> [and] the south <1864> chambers <3957>, which <0834>
[are] before the separate <1508> place, they [be] holy <6944>
chambers <3957>, where the priests <3548> that approach <7138>
unto the LORD <3068> shall eat <0398> the most <6944> holy
<6944> things: there <8033> shall they lay <3241> the most
<6944> holy <6944> things, and the meat offering <4503>, and the
sin <2403> offering, and the trespass <0817> offering; for the
place <4725> [is] holy <6918>.
14 When the priests <3548> enter <0935> therein, then shall
they not go <3318> out of the holy <6944> [place] into <0413>
the utter <2435> court <2691>, but there <8033> they shall lay
<3241> their garments <0899> wherein <0834> they minister <8334>;
for they [are] holy; and shall put <3847> on other <0312>
garments <0899>, and shall approach <7126> to [those things]
which <0834> [are] for the people <5971>.
15. Now when he had made an end <3615> of measuring <4060> the
inner <6442> house <1004>, he brought <3318> me forth <3318>
toward <1870> the gate <8179> whose <0834> prospect <6440> [is]
toward <1870> the east <6921>, and measured <4058> it round
<5439> about.
16 He measured <4058> the east <6921> side <7307> with the
measuring <4060> reed <7070>, five <2568> hundred <0520> reeds
<7070>, with the measuring <4060> reed <7070> round <5439> about.
17 He measured <4058> the north <6828> side <7307>, five <2568>
hundred <3967> reeds <7070>, with the measuring <4060> reed
<7070> round <5439> about.
18 He measured <4058> the south <1864> side <7307>, five <2568>
hundred <3967> reeds <7070>, with the measuring <4060> reed
<7070>.
19 He turned <5437> about to the west <3220> side <7307>, [and]
measured <4058> five <2568> hundred <3967> reeds <7070> with the
measuring <4060> reed <7070>.
20 He measured <4058> it by the four <0702> sides <7307>: it
had a wall <2346> round <5439> about, five <2568> hundred <3967>
[reeds] long <0753>, and five <2568> hundred <3967> broad <7341>,
to make a separation <0914> between <0996> the sanctuary <6944>
and the profane <2455> place.
Ezekiel 43
1. Afterward he brought <3212> me to the gate <8179>, [even]
the gate <8179> that looketh <6437> toward <1870> the east
<6921>:
2 And, behold <2009>, the glory <3519> of the God <0430> of
Israel <3478> came <0935> from the way <1870> of the east <6921>:
and his voice <6963> [was] like a noise <6963> of many <7227>
waters <4325>: and the earth <0776> shined <0215> with his glory
<3519>.
3 And [it was] according to the appearance <4758> of the vision
<4758> which <0834> I saw <7200>, [even] according to the vision
<4758> that I saw <7200> when I came <0935> to destroy <7843>
the city <5892>: and the visions <4759> [were] like the vision
<4758> that I saw <7200> by the river <5104> Chebar <3529>; and
I fell <5307> upon my face <6440>.
4 And the glory <3519> of the LORD <3068> came <0935> into
<0413> the house <1004> by the way <1870> of the gate <8179>
whose <0834> prospect <6440> [is] toward <1870> the east <6921>.
5 So the spirit <7307> took <5375> me up, and brought <0935> me
into <0413> the inner <6442> court <2691>; and, behold <2009>,
the glory <3519> of the LORD <3068> filled <4390> the house
<1004>.
6 And I heard <8085> [him] speaking <1696> unto me out of the
house <1004>; and the man <0376> stood <5975> by me.
7. And he said <0559> unto me, Son <1121> of man <0120>, the
place <4725> of my throne <3678>, and the place <4725> of the
soles <3709> of my feet <7272>, where I will dwell <7931> in the
midst <8432> of the children <1121> of Israel <3478> for ever
<5769>, and my holy <6944> name <8034>, shall the house <1004>
of Israel <3478> no <3808> more <5750> defile <2930>, [neither]
they, nor their kings <4428>, by their whoredom <2184>, nor by
the carcases <6297> of their kings <4428> in their high <1116>
places.
8 In their setting <5414> of their threshold <5592> by my
thresholds <5592>, and their post <4201> by my posts <4201>, and
the wall <7023> between <0996> me and them, they have even
defiled <2930> my holy <6944> name <8034> by their abominations
<8441> that they have committed <6213>: wherefore I have
consumed <0398> them in mine anger <0639>.
9 Now <6258> let them put <7368> away <7368> their whoredom
<2184>, and the carcases <6297> of their kings <4428>, far
<7350> from me, and I will dwell <7931> in the midst <8432> of
them for ever <5769>.
10 Thou son <1121> of man <0120>, shew <5046> the house <1004>
to the house <1004> of Israel <3478>, that they may be ashamed
<3637> of their iniquities <5771>: and let them measure <4058>
the pattern <8508>.
11 And if <0518> they be ashamed <3637> of all <3605> that they
have done <6213>, shew <3045> them the form <6699> of the house
<1004>, and the fashion <8498> thereof, and the goings <4161>
out thereof, and the comings <4126> in thereof, and all <3605>
the forms <6699> thereof, and all <3605> the ordinances <2708>
thereof, and all <3605> the forms <6699> thereof, and all <3605>
the laws <8451> thereof: and write <3789> [it] in their sight
<5869>, that they may keep <8104> the whole <3605> form <6699>
thereof, and all <3605> the ordinances <2708> thereof, and do
<6213> them.
12 This <2063> [is] the law <8451> of the house <1004>; Upon
the top <7218> of the mountain <2022> the whole <3605> limit
<1366> thereof round <5439> about [shall be] most <6944> holy
<6944>. Behold <2009>, this <2063> [is] the law <8451> of the
house <1004>.
13. And these <0428> [are] the measures <4060> of the altar
<4196> after the cubits <0520>: The cubit <0520> [is] a cubit
<0520> and an hand <2948> breadth <2948>; even the bottom <2436>
[shall be] a cubit <0520>, and the breadth <7341> a cubit <0520>,
and the border <1366> thereof by the edge thereof round <5439>
about [shall be] a span <2239>: and this <2088> [shall be] the
higher <1354> place of the altar <4196>.
14 And from the bottom <2436> [upon] the ground <0776> [even]
to the lower <8481> settle <5835> [shall be] two <8147> cubits
<0520>, and the breadth <7341> one <0259> cubit <0520>; and from
the lesser <6996> settle <5835> [even] to the greater <1419>
settle <5835> [shall be] four <0702> cubits <0520>, and the
breadth <7341> [one] cubit <0520>.
15 So the altar <0741> [shall be] four <0702> cubits <0520>;
and from the altar <0741> and upward <4605> [shall be] four
<0702> horns <7161>.
16 And the altar <0741> [shall be] twelve [cubits] long <0753>,
twelve broad <7341>, square <7251> in the four <0702> squares
<7253> thereof.
17 And the settle <5835> [shall be] fourteen [cubits] long
<0753> and fourteen broad <7341> in the four <0702> squares
<7253> thereof; and the border <1366> about <5439> it [shall be]
half <2677> a cubit <0520>; and the bottom <3247> thereof [shall
be] a cubit <0520> about <5439>; and his stairs <4609> shall
look <6437> toward the east <6921>.
18 And he said <0559> unto me, Son <1121> of man <0120>, thus
<3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; These <0428>
[are] the ordinances <2708> of the altar <4196> in the day
<3117> when they shall make <6213> it, to offer <5927> burnt
<5930> offerings thereon <5921>, and to sprinkle <2236> blood
<1818> thereon <5921>.
19 And thou shalt give <5414> to the priests <3548> the Levites
<3881> that be of the seed <2233> of Zadok <6659>, which
approach <7126> unto me, to minister <8334> unto me, saith
<5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>, a young bullock <6499> for a
sin <2403> offering.
20 And thou shalt take <3947> of the blood <1818> thereof, and
put <5414> [it] on <5921> the four <0702> horns <7161> of it,
and on <0413> the four <0702> corners <6438> of the settle
<5835>, and upon the border <1366> round <5439> about: thus
shalt thou cleanse <2398> and purge <3722> it.
21 Thou shalt take <3947> the bullock <6499> also of the sin
<2403> offering, and he shall burn <8313> it in the appointed
<4662> place of the house <1004>, without <2351> the sanctuary
<4720>.
22 And on the second <8145> day <3117> thou shalt offer <7126>
a kid <8163> of the goats <5795> without <8549> blemish <8549>
for a sin <2403> offering; and they shall cleanse <2398> the
altar <4196>, as they did cleanse <2398> [it] with the bullock
<6499>.
23 When thou hast made an end <3615> of cleansing <2893> [it],
thou shalt offer <7126> a young bullock <6499> without <8549>
blemish <8549>, and a ram <0352> out of the flock <6629> without
<8549> blemish <8549>.
24 And thou shalt offer <7126> them before <6440> the LORD
<3068>, and the priests <3548> shall cast <7993> salt <4417>
upon them, and they shall offer <5927> them up [for] a burnt
<5930> offering unto the LORD <3068>.
25 Seven <7651> days <3117> shalt thou prepare <6213> every day
<3117> a goat <8163> [for] a sin <2403> offering: they shall
also prepare <3559> a young bullock <6499>, and a ram <0352> out
of the flock <6629>, without <8549> blemish <8549>.
26 Seven <7651> days <3117> shall they purge <3722> the altar
<4196> and purify <2891> it; and they shall consecrate
themselves <3027>.
27 And when these days <3117> are expired <3615>, it shall be,
[that] upon the eighth <8066> day <3117>, and [so] forward
<1973>, the priests <3548> shall make <6213> your burnt <5930>
offerings upon the altar <4196>, and your peace <8002> offerings;
and I will accept <7521> you, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>.
Ezekiel 44
1. Then he brought <7725> me back <7725> the way <1870> of the
gate <8179> of the outward <2435> sanctuary <4720> which looketh
<6437> toward the east <6921>; and it [was] shut <5462>.
2 Then said <0559> the LORD <3068> unto me; This <2088> gate
<8179> shall be shut <5462>, it shall not be opened <6605>, and
no <3808> man <0376> shall enter <0935> in by it; because <3588>
the LORD <3068>, the God <0430> of Israel <3478>, hath entered
<0935> in by it, therefore it shall be shut <5462>.
3 [It is] for the prince <5387>; the prince <5387>, he shall
sit <3427> in it to eat <0398> bread <3899> before <6440> the
LORD <3068>; he shall enter <0935> by the way <1870> of the
porch <0197> of [that] gate <8179>, and shall go <3318> out by
the way <1870> of the same.
4. Then brought <0935> he me the way <1870> of the north <6828>
gate <8179> before the house <1004>: and I looked <7200>, and,
behold <2009>, the glory <3519> of the LORD <3068> filled <4390>
the house <1004> of the LORD <3068>: and I fell <5307> upon my
face <6440>.
5 And the LORD <3068> said <0559> unto me, Son <1121> of man
<0120>, mark <7760> well, and behold <7200> with thine eyes
<5869>, and hear <8085> with thine ears <0241> all <3605> that I
say <1696> unto thee concerning all <3605> the ordinances <2708>
of the house <1004> of the LORD <3068>, and all <3605> the laws
<8451> thereof; and mark <7760> well the entering <3996> in of
the house <1004>, with every <3605> going <4161> forth <4161> of
the sanctuary <4720>.
6 And thou shalt say <0559> to the rebellious <4805>, [even] to
the house <1004> of Israel <3478>, Thus <3541> saith <0559> the
Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; O ye house <1004> of Israel <3478>, let
it suffice <7227> you of all <3605> your abominations <8441>,
7 In that ye have brought <0935> [into my sanctuary] strangers,
uncircumcised <6189> in heart <3820>, and uncircumcised <6189>
in flesh <1320>, to be in my sanctuary <4720>, to pollute <2490>
it, [even <0853>] my house <1004>, when ye offer <7126> my bread
<3899>, the fat <2459> and the blood <1818>, and they have
broken <6565> my covenant <1285> because <0413> of all <3605>
your abominations <8441>.
8 And ye have not kept <8104> the charge <4931> of mine holy
<6944> things: but ye have set <7760> keepers <8104> of my
charge <4931> in my sanctuary <4720> for yourselves.
9 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; No
<3808> stranger, uncircumcised <6189> in heart <3820>, nor
uncircumcised <6189> in flesh <1320>, shall enter <0935> into
<0413> my sanctuary <4720>, of any <3605> stranger that [is]
among <8432> the children <1121> of Israel <3478>.
10. And the Levites <3881> that are gone away far <7350> from
me, when Israel <3478> went <8582> astray <8582>, which <0834>
went <8582> astray <8582> away from me after <0310> their idols
<1544>; they shall even bear <5375> their iniquity <5771>.
11 Yet they shall be ministers <8334> in my sanctuary <4720>,
[having] charge <6486> at <0413> the gates <8179> of the house
<1004>, and ministering <8334> to the house <1004>: they shall
slay <7819> the burnt <5930> offering and the sacrifice <2077>
for the people <5971>, and they shall stand <5975> before <6440>
them to minister <8334> unto them.
12 Because they ministered <8334> unto them before <6440> their
idols <1544>, and caused the house <1004> of Israel <3478> to
fall <4383> into iniquity <5771>; therefore have I lifted <5375>
up mine hand <3027> against <5921> them, saith <5002> the Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>, and they shall bear <5375> their iniquity
<5771>.
13 And they shall not come <5066> near <5066> unto me, to do
the office of a priest <3547> unto me, nor to come <5066> near
<5066> to any <3605> of my holy <6944> things, in the most
<6944> holy <6944> [place]: but they shall bear <5375> their
shame <3639>, and their abominations <8441> which <0834> they
have committed <6213>.
14 But I will make them keepers <8104> of the charge <4931> of
the house <1004>, for all <3605> the service <5656> thereof, and
for all <3605> that shall be done <6213> therein.
15 But the priests <3548> the Levites <3881>, the sons <1121>
of Zadok <6659>, that kept <8104> the charge <4931> of my
sanctuary <4720> when the children <1121> of Israel <3478> went
<8582> astray <8582> from me, they shall come <7126> near <7126>
to me to minister <8334> unto me, and they shall stand <5975>
before <6440> me to offer <7126> unto me the fat <2459> and the
blood <1818>, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>:
16 They shall enter <0935> into <0413> my sanctuary <4720>, and
they shall come <7126> near <7126> to my table <7979>, to
minister <8334> unto me, and they shall keep <8104> my charge
<4931>.
17. And it shall come <1961> to pass, [that] when they enter
<0935> in at <0413> the gates <8179> of the inner <6442> court
<2691>, they shall be clothed <3847> with linen <6593> garments
<0899>; and no <3808> wool <6785> shall come <5927> upon them,
whiles they minister <8334> in the gates <8179> of the inner
<6442> court <2691>, and within <1004>.
18 They shall have <1961> linen <6593> bonnets <6287> upon
their heads <7218>, and shall have <1961> linen <6593> breeches
<4370> upon their loins <4975>; they shall not gird <2296>
[themselves] with any thing that causeth sweat <3154>.
19 And when they go <3318> forth <3318> into <0413> the utter
<2435> court <2691>, [even] into <0413> the utter <2435> court
<2691> to the people <5971>, they shall put <6584> off their
garments <0899> wherein <0834> they ministered <8334>, and lay
<3241> them in the holy <6944> chambers <3957>, and they shall
put <3847> on other <0312> garments <0899>; and they shall not
sanctify <6942> the people <5971> with their garments <0899>.
20 Neither <3808> shall they shave <1548> their heads <7218>,
nor <3808> suffer their locks <6545> to grow <7971> long; they
shall only <3697> poll <3697> their heads <7218>.
21 Neither <3808> shall any <3605> priest <3548> drink <8354>
wine <3196>, when they enter <0935> into <0413> the inner <6442>
court <2691>.
22 Neither <3808> shall they take <3947> for their wives <0802>
a widow <0490>, nor her that is put <1644> away: but they shall
take <3947> maidens <1330> of the seed <2233> of the house
<1004> of Israel <3478>, or a widow <0490> that had <1961> a
priest <3548> before.
23 And they shall teach <3384> my people <5971> [the
difference] between <0996> the holy <6944> and profane <2455>,
and cause them to discern <3045> between <0996> the unclean
<2931> and the clean <2889>.
24 And in controversy <7379> they shall stand <5975> in
judgment <8199>; [and] they shall judge <8199> it according to
my judgments <4941>: and they shall keep <8104> my laws <8451>
and my statutes <2708> in all <3605> mine assemblies <4150>; and
they shall hallow <6942> my sabbaths <7676>.
25 And they shall come <0935> at <0413> no <3808> dead <4191>
person <0120> to defile <2930> themselves: but for father <1>,
or for mother <0517>, or for son <1121>, or for daughter <1323>,
for brother <0251>, or for sister <0269> that hath had <1961> no
<3808> husband <0376>, they may defile <2930> themselves.
26 And after <0310> he is cleansed <2893>, they shall reckon
<5608> unto him seven <7651> days <3117>.
27 And in the day <3117> that he goeth <0935> into <0413> the
sanctuary <6944>, unto the inner <6442> court <2691>, to
minister <8334> in the sanctuary <6944>, he shall offer <7126>
his sin <2403> offering, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
28 And it shall be unto them for an inheritance <5159>: I [am]
their inheritance <5159>: and ye shall give <5414> them no
<3808> possession <0272> in Israel <3478>: I [am] their
possession <0272>.
29 They shall eat <0398> the meat offering <4503>, and the sin
<2403> offering, and the trespass <0817> offering; and every
<3605> dedicated <2764> thing in Israel <3478> shall be theirs
<1992>.
30 And the first <7225> of all <3605> the firstfruits <1061> of
all <3605> [things], and every <3605> oblation <8641> of all
<3605>, of every <3605> [sort] of your oblations <8641>, shall
be the priest's <3548>: ye shall also give <5414> unto the
priest <3548> the first <7225> of your dough <6182>, that he may
cause the blessing <1293> to rest <5117> in thine house <1004>.
31 The priests <3548> shall not eat <0398> of any <3605> thing
that is dead <5038> of itself, or torn <2966>, whether <4480> it
be fowl <5775> or beast <0929>.
Ezekiel 45
1. Moreover, when ye shall divide <5307> by lot the land <0776>
for inheritance <5159>, ye shall offer <7311> an oblation <8641>
unto the LORD <3068>, an holy <6944> portion of the land <0776>:
the length <0753> [shall be] the length <0753> of five <2568>
and twenty <6242> thousand <0505> [reeds], and the breadth
<7341> [shall be] ten <6235> thousand <0505>. This <1931> [shall
be] holy <6944> in all <3605> the borders <1366> thereof round
<5439> about.
2 Of this <2088> there shall be for the sanctuary <6944> five
<2568> hundred <3967> [in length], with five <2568> hundred
<3967> [in breadth <7341>], square <7251> round <5439> about;
and fifty <2572> cubits <0520> round <5439> about for the
suburbs <4054> thereof.
3 And of this <2063> measure <4060> shalt thou measure <4058>
the length <0753> of five <2568> and twenty <6242> thousand
<0505>, and the breadth <7341> of ten <6235> thousand <0505>:
and in it shall be the sanctuary <4720> [and] the most <6944>
holy <6944> [place].
4 The holy <6944> [portion] of the land <0776> shall be for the
priests <3548> the ministers <8334> of the sanctuary <4720>,
which shall come <7131> near <7131> to minister <8334> unto the
LORD <3068>: and it shall be a place <4725> for their houses
<1004>, and an holy <4720> place for the sanctuary <4720>.
5 And the five <2568> and twenty <6242> thousand <0505> of
length <0753>, and the ten <6235> thousand <0505> of breadth
<7341>, shall also the Levites <3881>, the ministers <8334> of
the house <1004>, have <1961> for themselves <1992>, for a
possession <0272> for twenty <6242> chambers <3957>.
6 And ye shall appoint <5414> the possession <0272> of the city
<5892> five <2568> thousand <0505> broad <7341>, and five <2568>
and twenty <6242> thousand <0505> long <0753>, over <5980>
against <5980> the oblation <8641> of the holy <6944> [portion]:
it shall be for the whole <3605> house <1004> of Israel <3478>.
7 And a [portion shall be] for the prince <5387> on the one
side and on the other <2088> side of the oblation <8641> of the
holy <6944> [portion], and of the possession <0272> of the city
<5892>, before the oblation <8641> of the holy <6944> [portion],
and before the possession <0272> of the city <5892>, from the
west <3220> side <6285> westward <3220>, and from the east
<6924> side <6285> eastward <6921>: and the length <0753> [shall
be] over <5980> against <5980> one <0259> of the portions <2506>,
from the west <3220> border <1366> unto the east <6921> border
<1366>.
8 In the land <0776> shall be his possession <0272> in Israel
<3478>: and my princes <5387> shall no <3808> more <5750>
oppress <3238> my people <5971>; and [the rest of] the land
<0776> shall they give <5414> to the house <1004> of Israel
<3478> according to their tribes <7626>.
9. Thus <3541> saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; Let it
suffice <7227> you, O princes <5387> of Israel <3478>: remove
<5493> violence <2555> and spoil <7701>, and execute <6213>
judgment <4941> and justice <6666>, take <7311> away <7311> your
exactions <1646> from my people <5971>, saith <0559> the Lord
<0136> GOD <3069>.
10 Ye shall have <1961> just <6664> balances <3976>, and a just
<6664> ephah <0374>, and a just <6664> bath <1324>.
11 The ephah <0374> and the bath <1324> shall be of one <0259>
measure <8506>, that the bath <1324> may contain <5375> the
tenth <4643> part of an homer <2563>, and the ephah <0374> the
tenth <6224> part of an homer <2563>: the measure <4971> thereof
shall be after the homer <2563>.
12 And the shekel <8255> [shall be] twenty <6242> gerahs <1626>:
twenty <6242> shekels <8255>, five <2568> and twenty <6242>
shekels <8255>, fifteen <2568> shekels <8255>, shall be your
maneh <4488>.
13. This <2063> [is] the oblation <8641> that ye shall offer
<7311>; the sixth <8345> part of an ephah <0374> of an homer
<2563> of wheat <2406>, and ye shall give the sixth <8341> part
of an ephah <0374> of an homer <2563> of barley <8184>:
14 Concerning the ordinance <2706> of oil <8081>, the bath
<1324> of oil <8081>, [ye shall offer] the tenth <4643> part of
a bath <1324> out of the cor <3734>, [which <4480> is] an homer
<2563> of ten <6235> baths <1324>; for ten <6235> baths <1324>
[are] an homer <2563>:
15 And one <0259> lamb <7716> out of the flock <6629>, out of
two hundred <3967>, out of the fat <4945> pastures <4945> of
Israel <3478>; for a meat offering <4503>, and for a burnt
<5930> offering, and for peace <8002> offerings, to make
reconciliation <3722> for them, saith <5002> the Lord <0136> GOD
<3069>.
16 All <3605> the people <5971> of the land <0776> shall give
this <2063> oblation <8641> for the prince <5387> in Israel
<3478>.
17 And it shall be the prince's <5387> part [to give] burnt
<5930> offerings, and meat offerings <4503>, and drink <5262>
offerings, in the feasts <2282>, and in the new <2320> moons
<2320>, and in the sabbaths <7676>, in all <3605> solemnities
<4150> of the house <1004> of Israel <3478>: he shall prepare
<3559> the sin <2403> offering, and the meat offering <4503>,
and the burnt <5930> offering, and the peace <8002> offerings,
to make reconciliation <3722> for the house <1004> of Israel
<3478>.
18 Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; In the
first <7223> [month], in the first <0259> [day] of the month
<2320>, thou shalt take <3947> a young bullock <6499> without
<8549> blemish <8549>, and cleanse <2398> the sanctuary <4720>:
19 And the priest <3548> shall take <3947> of the blood <1818>
of the sin <2403> offering, and put <5414> [it] upon the posts
<4201> of the house <1004>, and upon the four <0702> corners
<6438> of the settle <5835> of the altar <4196>, and upon the
posts <4201> of the gate <8179> of the inner <6442> court <2691>.
20 And so <3651> thou shalt do <6213> the seventh <7651> [day]
of the month <2320> for every <0376> one <0376> that erreth
<7686>, and for [him that is] simple <6612>: so shall ye
reconcile <3722> the house <1004>.
21 In the first <7223> [month], in the fourteenth day <3117> of
the month <2320>, ye shall have <1961> the passover <6453>, a
feast <2282> of seven <7651> days <3117>; unleavened <4682>
bread shall be eaten <0398>.
22 And upon that day <3117> shall the prince <5387> prepare
<3559> for himself and for all <3605> the people <5971> of the
land <0776> a bullock <6499> [for] a sin <2403> offering.
23 And seven <7651> days <3117> of the feast <2282> he shall
prepare <3559> a burnt <5930> offering to the LORD <3068>, seven
<7651> bullocks <6499> and seven <7651> rams <0352> without
<8549> blemish <8549> daily <3117> the seven <7651> days <3117>;
and a kid <8163> of the goats <5795> daily <3117> [for] a sin
<2403> offering.
24 And he shall prepare <3559> a meat offering <4503> of an
ephah <0374> for a bullock <6499>, and an ephah <0374> for a ram
<0352>, and an hin <1969> of oil <8081> for an ephah <0374>.
25 In the seventh <7651> [month], in the fifteenth <6240> day
<3117> of the month <2320>, shall he do <6213> the like in the
feast <2282> of the seven <7651> days <3117>, according to the
sin <2403> offering, according to the burnt <5930> offering, and
according to the meat offering <4503>, and according to the oil
<8081>.
Ezekiel 46
1. Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; The
gate <8179> of the inner <6442> court <2691> that looketh <6437>
toward the east <6921> shall be shut <5462> the six <8337>
working <4639> days <3117>; but on the sabbath <7676> it shall
be opened <6605>, and in the day <3117> of the new <2320> moon
<2320> it shall be opened <6605>.
2 And the prince <5387> shall enter <0935> by the way <1870> of
the porch <0197> of [that] gate <8179> without <2351>, and shall
stand <5975> by the post <4201> of the gate <8179>, and the
priests <3548> shall prepare <3559> his burnt <5930> offering
and his peace <8002> offerings, and he shall worship <7812> at
<5921> the threshold <4670> of the gate <8179>: then he shall go
<3318> forth <3318>; but the gate <8179> shall not be shut
<5462> until <5704> the evening <6153>.
3 Likewise the people <5971> of the land <0776> shall worship
<7812> at the door <6607> of this <1931> gate <8179> before
<6440> the LORD <3068> in the sabbaths <7676> and in the new
<2320> moons <2320>.
4 And the burnt <5930> offering that the prince <5387> shall
offer <7126> unto the LORD <3068> in the sabbath <7676> day
<3117> [shall be] six <8337> lambs <3532> without <8549> blemish
<8549>, and a ram <0352> without <8549> blemish <8549>.
5 And the meat offering <4503> [shall be] an ephah <0374> for a
ram <0352>, and the meat offering <4503> for the lambs <3532> as
he shall be able to give <4991>, and an hin <1969> of oil <8081>
to an ephah <0374>.
6 And in the day <3117> of the new <2320> moon <2320> [it shall
be] a young bullock <6499> without <8549> blemish <8549>, and
six <8337> lambs <3532>, and a ram <0352>: they shall be without
<8549> blemish <8549>.
7 And he shall prepare <3559> a meat offering <4503>, an ephah
<0374> for a bullock <6499>, and an ephah <0374> for a ram
<0352>, and for the lambs <3532> according as his hand <3027>
shall attain <5381> unto, and an hin <1969> of oil <8081> to an
ephah <0374>.
8 And when the prince <5387> shall enter <0935>, he shall go
<0935> in by the way <1870> of the porch <0197> of [that] gate
<8179>, and he shall go <3318> forth <3318> by the way <1870>
thereof.
9 But when the people <5971> of the land <0776> shall come
<0935> before <6440> the LORD <3068> in the solemn <4150> feasts
<4150>, he that entereth <0935> in by the way <1870> of the
north <6828> gate <8179> to worship <7812> shall go <3318> out
by the way <1870> of the south <5045> gate <8179>; and he that
entereth <0935> by the way <1870> of the south <5045> gate
<8179> shall go <3318> forth <3318> by the way <1870> of the
north <6828> gate <8179>: he shall not return <7725> by the way
<1870> of the gate <8179> whereby <0834> he came <0935> in, but
shall go <3318> forth <3318> over <5226> against <5227> it.
10 And the prince <5387> in the midst <8432> of them, when they
go <0935> in, shall go <3318> in; and when they go <3318> forth
<3318>, shall go <3318> forth <3318>.
11 And in the feasts <2282> and in the solemnities <4150> the
meat offering <4503> shall be an ephah <0374> to a bullock
<6499>, and an ephah <0374> to a ram <0352>, and to the lambs
<3532> as he is able to give <4991>, and an hin <1969> of oil
<8081> to an ephah <0374>.
12 Now <3588> when <3588> the prince <5387> shall prepare
<3559> a voluntary <5071> burnt <5930> offering or peace <8002>
offerings voluntarily <5071> unto the LORD <3068>, [one] shall
then open <6605> him the gate <8179> that looketh <6437> toward
the east <6921>, and he shall prepare <3559> his burnt <5930>
offering and his peace <8002> offerings, as he did <6213> on the
sabbath <7676> day <3117>: then he shall go <3318> forth <3318>;
and after <0310> his going <3318> forth <3318> [one] shall shut
<5462> the gate <8179>.
13 Thou shalt daily <3117> prepare <3559> a burnt <5930>
offering unto the LORD <3068> [of] a lamb <3532> of the first
<1121> year <8141> without <8549> blemish <8549>: thou shalt
prepare <3559> it every morning <1242>.
14 And thou shalt prepare <3559> a meat offering <4503> for it
every morning <1242>, the sixth <8345> part of an ephah <0374>,
and the third <7992> part of an hin <1969> of oil <8081>, to
temper <7450> with the fine flour <5560>; a meat offering <4503>
continually <8548> by a perpetual <5769> ordinance <2708> unto
the LORD <3068>.
15 Thus shall they prepare <3559> the lamb <3532>, and the meat
offering <4503>, and the oil <8081>, every morning <1242> [for]
a continual <8548> burnt <5930> offering.
16. Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; If
<3588> the prince <5387> give <5414> a gift <4979> unto any
<0376> of his sons <1121>, the inheritance <5159> thereof shall
be his sons <1121>'; it [shall be] their possession <0272> by
inheritance <5159>.
17 But if <3588> he give <5414> a gift <4979> of his
inheritance <5159> to one <0259> of his servants <5650>, then it
shall be his to the year <8141> of liberty <1865>; after it
shall return <7725> to the prince <5387>: but his inheritance
<5159> shall be his sons <1121>' for them.
18 Moreover the prince <5387> shall not take <3947> of the
people's <5971> inheritance <5159> by oppression <3238>, to
thrust <3238> them out of their possession <0272>; [but] he
shall give his sons <1121> inheritance <5157> out of his own
possession <0272>: that my people <5971> be not scattered every
man <0376> from his possession <0272>.
19. After he brought <0935> me through the entry <3996>, which
<0834> [was] at <5921> the side of the gate <8179>, into <0413>
the holy <6944> chambers <3957> of the priests <3548>, which
looked <6437> toward the north <6828>: and, behold <2009>, there
<8033> [was] a place <4725> on the two sides <3411> westward
<3220>.
20 Then said <0559> he unto me, This <2088> [is] the place
<4725> where the priests <3548> shall boil <1310> the trespass
<0817> offering and the sin <2403> offering, where <0834> they
shall bake <0644> the meat offering <4503>; that they bear
<3318> [them] not out into <0413> the utter <2435> court <2691>,
to sanctify <6942> the people <5971>.
21 Then he brought <3318> me forth <3318> into <0413> the utter
<2435> court <2691>, and caused me to pass <5674> by the four
<0702> corners <4742> of the court <2691>; and, behold <2009>,
in every corner <4742> of the court <2691> [there was] a court
<2691>.
22 In the four <0702> corners <4742> of the court <2691> [there
were] courts <2691> joined <7000> of forty <0705> [cubits] long
<0753> and thirty <7970> broad <7341>: these four <0702> corners
<7106> [were] of one <0259> measure <4060>.
23 And [there was] a row <2905> [of building] round <5439>
about in them, round <5439> about them four <0702>, and [it was]
made <6213> with boiling <4018> places under <8478> the rows
<2918> round <5439> about.
24 Then said <0559> he unto me, These <0428> [are] the places
<1004> of them that boil <1310>, where the ministers <8334> of
the house <1004> shall boil <1310> the sacrifice <2077> of the
people <5971>.
Ezekiel 47
1. Afterward he brought <7725> me again <7725> unto the door
<6607> of the house <1004>; and, behold <2009>, waters <4325>
issued <3318> out from under <8478> the threshold <4670> of the
house <1004> eastward <6921>: for the forefront <6440> of the
house <1004> [stood toward] the east <6921>, and the waters
<4325> came <3381> down <3381> from under <8478> from the right
<3233> side of the house <1004>, at the south <5045> [side] of
the altar <4196>.
2 Then brought <3318> he me out of the way <1870> of the gate
<8179> northward <6828>, and led <5437> me about <5437> the way
<1870> without <2351> unto the utter <2531> gate <8179> by the
way <1870> that looketh <6437> eastward <6921>; and, behold
<2009>, there ran <6379> out waters <4325> on the right <3233>
side <3802>.
3 And when the man <0376> that had the line <6957> in his hand
<3027> went <3318> forth <3318> eastward <6921>, he measured
<4058> a thousand <0505> cubits <0520>, and he brought <5674> me
through <5674> the waters <4325>; the waters <4325> [were] to
the ankles <0657>.
4 Again he measured <4058> a thousand <0505>, and brought
<5674> me through <5674> the waters <4325>; the waters <4325>
[were] to the knees <1290>. Again he measured <4058> a thousand
<0505>, and brought <5674> me through <5674>; the waters <4325>
[were] to the loins <4975>.
5 Afterward he measured <4058> a thousand <0505>; [and it was]
a river <5158> that I could <3201> not pass <5674> over <5674>:
for the waters <4325> were risen <1342>, waters <4325> to swim
<7813> in, a river <5158> that could not be passed <5674> over
<5674>.
6 And he said <0559> unto me, Son <1121> of man <0120>, hast
thou seen <7200> [this]? Then he brought <3212> me, and caused
me to return <7725> to the brink <8193> of the river <5158>.
7 Now when I had returned <7725>, behold <2009>, at <0413> the
bank <8193> of the river <5158> [were] very <3966> many <7227>
trees <6086> on the one side and on the other <2088>.
8 Then said <0559> he unto me, These <0428> waters <4325> issue
<3318> out toward the east <6930> country <1552>, and go <3381>
down <3381> into <5921> the desert <6160>, and go <0935> into
the sea <3220>: [which being <1961>] brought <3318> forth <3318>
into the sea <3220>, the waters <4325> shall be healed <7495>.
9 And it shall come <1961> to pass, [that] every <3605> thing
<5315> that liveth <2416>, which <0834> moveth <8317>,
whithersoever the rivers <5158> shall come <0935>, shall live
<2421>: and there shall be a very <3966> great <7227> multitude
of fish <1710>, because <3588> these <0428> waters <4325> shall
come <0935> thither: for they shall be healed <7495>; and every
<3605> thing shall live <2425> whither the river <5158> cometh
<0935>.
10 And it shall come <1961> to pass, [that] the fishers <1728>
shall stand <5975> upon it from Engedi <5872> even unto Eneglaim
<5882>; they shall be a [place] to spread <4894> forth nets
<2764>; their fish <1710> shall be according to their kinds
<4327>, as the fish <1710> of the great <1419> sea <3220>,
exceeding <3966> many <7227>.
11 But the miry <1207> places thereof and the marishes <1360>
thereof shall not be healed <7495>; they shall be given <5414>
to salt <4417>.
12 And by the river <5158> upon the bank <8193> thereof, on
this <2088> side and on that side, shall grow <5927> all <3605>
trees <6086> for meat <3978>, whose leaf <5929> shall not fade
<5034>, neither <3808> shall the fruit <6529> thereof be
consumed <8552>: it shall bring <1069> forth new <1069> fruit
<1061> according to his months <2320>, because <3588> their
waters <4325> they issued <3318> out of the sanctuary <4720>:
and the fruit <6529> thereof shall be for meat <3978>, and the
leaf <5929> thereof for medicine <8644>.
13. Thus <3541> saith <0559> the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>; This
<2088> [shall be] the border <1366>, whereby <0834> ye shall
inherit <5157> the land <0776> according to the twelve tribes
<7626> of Israel <3478>: Joseph <3130> [shall have two] portions
<2256>.
14 And ye shall inherit <3423> it, one <0376> as well as
another <0250>: [concerning] the which <0834> I lifted <5375> up
mine hand <3027> to give <5414> it unto your fathers <1>: and
this <2063> land <0776> shall fall <5307> unto you for
inheritance <5159>.
15 And this <2088> [shall be] the border <1366> of the land
<0776> toward the north <6828> side <6285>, from the great
<1419> sea <3220>, the way <1870> of Hethlon <2855>, as men go
<0935> to Zedad <6657>;
16 Hamath <2574>, Berothah <1268>, Sibraim <5453>, which <0834>
[is] between <0996> the border <1366> of Damascus <1834> and the
border <1366> of Hamath <2574>; Hazarhatticon <2694>, which
<0834> [is] by the coast <1366> of Hauran <2362>.
17 And the border <1366> from the sea <3220> shall be Hazarenan
<2703>, the border <1366> of Damascus <1834>, and the north
<6828> northward <6828>, and the border <1366> of Hamath <2574>.
And [this is] the north <6828> side <6285>.
18 And the east <6921> side <6285> ye shall measure <4058> from
Hauran <2362>, and from Damascus <1834>, and from Gilead <1568>,
and from the land <0776> of Israel <3478> [by] Jordan <3383>,
from the border <1366> unto the east <6931> sea <3220>. And
[this is] the east <6921> side <6285>.
19 And the south <5045> side <6285> southward <5045>, from
Tamar <8559> [even] to the waters <4325> of strife <4808> [in]
Kadesh <6946>, the river <5158> to the great <1419> sea <3220>.
And [this is] the south <8486> side <6285> southward <5045>.
20 The west <3220> side <6285> also [shall be] the great <1419>
sea <3220> from the border <1366>, till <5704> a man come <0935>
over <5227> against Hamath <2574>. This <2063> [is] the west
<3220> side <6285>.
21 So shall ye divide <2505> this <2063> land <0776> unto you
according to the tribes <7626> of Israel <3478>.
22 And it shall come <1961> to pass, [that] ye shall divide
<5307> it by lot for an inheritance <5159> unto you, and to the
strangers <1616> that sojourn <1481> among <8432> you, which
<0834> shall beget <3205> children <1121> among <8432> you: and
they shall be unto you as born <0249> in the country <0249>
among the children <1121> of Israel <3478>; they shall have
<5307> inheritance <5159> with you among <8432> the tribes
<7626> of Israel <3478>.
23 And it shall come <1961> to pass, [that] in what <0834>
tribe <7626> the stranger <1616> sojourneth <1481>, there <8033>
shall ye give <5414> [him] his inheritance <5159>, saith <5002>
the Lord <0136> GOD <3069>.
