  • king james study
  • EZE-1:1 Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the
  • fourth [month], in
  • the fifth [day] of the month, as I [was] among the captives by
  • the river of
  • Chebar, [that] the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.
  • EZE-1:2 In the fifth [day] of the month, which [was] the fifth
  • year of king
  • Jehoiachin's captivity,
  • EZE-1:3 The word of the LORD came expressly unto Ezekiel the
  • priest, the son
  • of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar; and
  • the hand of the
  • LORD was there upon him.
  • EZE-1:4 And I looked, and, behold, a whirlwind came out of the
  • north, a great
  • cloud, and a fire infolding itself, and a brightness [was] about
  • it, and out
  • of the midst thereof as the colour of amber, out of the midst of
  • the fire.
  • EZE-1:5 Also out of the midst thereof [came] the likeness of
  • four living
  • creatures. And this [was] their appearance; they had the
  • likeness of a man.
  • EZE-1:6 And every one had four faces, and every one had four
  • wings.
  • EZE-1:7 And their feet [were] straight feet; and the sole of
  • their feet [was]
  • like the sole of a calf's foot: and they sparkled like the
  • colour of burnished
  • brass.
  • EZE-1:8 And [they had] the hands of a man under their wings on
  • their four
  • sides; and they four had their faces and their wings.
  • EZE-1:9 Their wings [were] joined one to another; they turned
  • not when they
  • went; they went every one straight forward.
  • EZE-1:10 As for the likeness of their faces, they four had the
  • face of a man,
  • and the face of a lion, on the right side: and they four had the
  • face of an ox
  • on the left side; they four also had the face of an eagle.
  • EZE-1:11 Thus [were] their faces: and their wings [were]
  • stretched upward;
  • two [wings] of every one [were] joined one to another, and two
  • covered their
  • bodies.
  • EZE-1:12 And they went every one straight forward: whither the
  • spirit was to
  • go, they went; [and] they turned not when they went.
  • EZE-1:13 As for the likeness of the living creatures, their
  • appearance [was]
  • like burning coals of fire, [and] like the appearance of lamps:
  • it went up and
  • down among the living creatures; and the fire was bright, and
  • out of the fire
  • went forth lightning.
  • EZE-1:14 And the living creatures ran and returned as the
  • appearance of a
  • flash of lightning.
  • EZE-1:15 Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold one wheel
  • upon the
  • earth by the living creatures, with his four faces.
  • EZE-1:16 The appearance of the wheels and their work [was] like
  • unto the
  • colour of a beryl: and they four had one likeness: and their
  • appearance and
  • their work [was] as it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel.
  • EZE-1:17 When they went, they went upon their four sides: [and]
  • they turned
  • not when they went.
  • EZE-1:18 As for their rings, they were so high that they were
  • dreadful; and
  • their rings [were] full of eyes round about them four.
  • EZE-1:19 And when the living creatures went, the wheels went by
  • them: and
  • when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the
  • wheels were
  • lifted up.
  • EZE-1:20 Whithersoever the spirit was to go, they went, thither
  • [was their]
  • spirit to go; and the wheels were lifted up over against them:
  • for the spirit
  • of the living creature [was] in the wheels.
  • EZE-1:21 When those went, [these] went; and when those stood,
  • [these] stood;
  • and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were
  • lifted up over
  • against them: for the spirit of the living creature [was] in the
  • wheels.
  • EZE-1:22 And the likeness of the firmament upon the heads of
  • the living
  • creature [was] as the colour of the terrible crystal, stretched
  • forth over
  • their heads above.
  • EZE-1:23 And under the firmament [were] their wings straight,
  • the one toward
  • the other: every one had two, which covered on this side, and
  • every one had
  • two, which covered on that side, their bodies.
  • EZE-1:24 And when they went, I heard the noise of their wings,
  • like the noise
  • of great waters, as the voice of the Almighty, the voice of
  • speech, as the
  • noise of an host: when they stood, they let down their wings.
  • EZE-1:25 And there was a voice from the firmament that [was]
  • over their
  • heads, when they stood, [and] had let down their wings.
  • EZE-1:26 And above the firmament that [was] over their heads
  • [was] the
  • likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone: and
  • upon the
  • likeness of the throne [was] the likeness as the appearance of a
  • man above
  • upon it.
  • EZE-1:27 And I saw as the colour of amber, as the appearance of
  • fire round
  • about within it, from the appearance of his loins even upward,
  • and from the
  • appearance of his loins even downward, I saw as it were the
  • appearance of
  • fire, and it had brightness round about.
  • EZE-1:28 As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in
  • the day of
  • rain, so [was] the appearance of the brightness round about.
  • This [was] the
  • appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I
  • saw [it], I
  • fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spake.
  • EZE-2:1 And he said unto me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet,
  • and I will
  • speak unto thee.
  • EZE-2:2 And the spirit entered into me when he spake unto me,
  • and set me upon
  • my feet, that I heard him that spake unto me.
  • EZE-2:3 And he said unto me, Son of man, I send thee to the
  • children of
  • Israel, to a rebellious nation that hath rebelled against me:
  • they and their
  • fathers have transgressed against me, [even] unto this very day.
  • EZE-2:4 For [they are] impudent children and stiffhearted. I do
  • send thee
  • unto them; and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-2:5 And they, whether they will hear, or whether they will
  • forbear, (for
  • they [are] a rebellious house,) yet shall know that there hath
  • been a prophet
  • among them.
  • EZE-2:6 And thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be
  • afraid of
  • their words, though briers and thorns [be] with thee, and thou
  • dost dwell
  • among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed
  • at their looks,
  • though they [be] a rebellious house.
  • EZE-2:7 And thou shalt speak my words unto them, whether they
  • will hear, or
  • whether they will forbear: for they [are] most rebellious.
  • EZE-2:8 But thou, son of man, hear what I say unto thee; Be not
  • thou
  • rebellious like that rebellious house: open thy mouth, and eat
  • that I give
  • thee.
  • EZE-2:9 And when I looked, behold, an hand [was] sent unto me;
  • and, lo, a
  • roll of a book [was] therein;
  • EZE-2:10 And he spread it before me; and it [was] written
  • within and without:
  • and [there was] written therein lamentations, and mourning, and
  • woe.
  • EZE-3:1 Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, eat that thou
  • findest; eat this
  • roll, and go speak unto the house of Israel.
  • EZE-3:2 So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat that roll.
  • EZE-3:3 And he said unto me, Son of man, cause thy belly to eat,
  • and fill thy
  • bowels with this roll that I give thee. Then did I eat [it]; and
  • it was in my
  • mouth as honey for sweetness.
  • EZE-3:4 And he said unto me, Son of man, go, get thee unto the
  • house of
  • Israel, and speak with my words unto them.
  • EZE-3:5 For thou [art] not sent to a people of a strange speech
  • and of an
  • hard language, [but] to the house of Israel;
  • EZE-3:6 Not to many people of a strange speech and of an hard
  • language, whose
  • words thou canst not understand. Surely, had I sent thee to them,
  • they would
  • have hearkened unto thee.
  • EZE-3:7 But the house of Israel will not hearken unto thee; for
  • they will not
  • hearken unto me: for all the house of Israel [are] impudent and
  • hardhearted.
  • EZE-3:8 Behold, I have made thy face strong against their faces,
  • and thy
  • forehead strong against their foreheads.
  • EZE-3:9 As an adamant harder than flint have I made thy
  • forehead: fear them
  • not, neither be dismayed at their looks, though they [be] a
  • rebellious house.
  • EZE-3:10 Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, all my words
  • that I shall
  • speak unto thee receive in thine heart, and hear with thine ears.
  • EZE-3:11 And go, get thee to them of the captivity, unto the
  • children of thy
  • people, and speak unto them, and tell them, Thus saith the Lord
  • GOD; whether
  • they will hear, or whether they will forbear.
  • EZE-3:12 Then the spirit took me up, and I heard behind me a
  • voice of a great
  • rushing, [saying], Blessed [be] the glory of the LORD from his
  • place.
  • EZE-3:13 [I heard] also the noise of the wings of the living
  • creatures that
  • touched one another, and the noise of the wheels over against
  • them, and a
  • noise of a great rushing.
  • EZE-3:14 So the spirit lifted me up, and took me away, and I
  • went in
  • bitterness, in the heat of my spirit; but the hand of the LORD
  • was strong upon
  • me.
  • EZE-3:15 Then I came to them of the captivity at Telabib, that
  • dwelt by the
  • river of Chebar, and I sat where they sat, and remained there
  • astonished among
  • them seven days.
  • EZE-3:16 And it came to pass at the end of seven days, that the
  • word of the
  • LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-3:17 Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house
  • of Israel:
  • therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from
  • me.
  • EZE-3:18 When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and
  • thou givest
  • him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked
  • way, to save
  • his life; the same wicked [man] shall die in his iniquity; but
  • his blood will
  • I require at thine hand.
  • EZE-3:19 Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his
  • wickedness,
  • nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou
  • hast delivered
  • thy soul.
  • EZE-3:20 Again, When a righteous [man] doth turn from his
  • righteousness, and
  • commit iniquity, and I lay a stumblingblock before him, he shall
  • die: because
  • thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his
  • righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but
  • his blood will I
  • require at thine hand.
  • EZE-3:21 Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous [man], that
  • the righteous
  • sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he
  • is warned; also
  • thou hast delivered thy soul.
  • EZE-3:22 And the hand of the LORD was there upon me; and he
  • said unto me,
  • Arise, go forth into the plain, and I will there talk with thee.
  • EZE-3:23 Then I arose, and went forth into the plain: and,
  • behold, the glory
  • of the LORD stood there, as the glory which I saw by the river
  • of Chebar: and
  • I fell on my face.
  • EZE-3:24 Then the spirit entered into me, and set me upon my
  • feet, and spake
  • with me, and said unto me, Go, shut thyself within thine house.
  • EZE-3:25 But thou, O son of man, behold, they shall put bands
  • upon thee, and
  • shall bind thee with them, and thou shalt not go out among them:
  • EZE-3:26 And I will make thy tongue cleave to the roof of thy
  • mouth, that
  • thou shalt be dumb, and shalt not be to them a reprover: for
  • they [are] a
  • rebellious house.
  • EZE-3:27 But when I speak with thee, I will open thy mouth, and
  • thou shalt
  • say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; He that heareth, let him
  • hear; and he
  • that forbeareth, let him forbear: for they [are] a rebellious
  • house.
  • EZE-4:1 Thou also, son of man, take thee a tile, and lay it
  • before thee, and
  • portray upon it the city, [even] Jerusalem:
  • EZE-4:2 And lay siege against it, and build a fort against it,
  • and cast a
  • mount against it; set the camp also against it, and set
  • [battering] rams
  • against it round about.
  • EZE-4:3 Moreover take thou unto thee an iron pan, and set it
  • [for] a wall of
  • iron between thee and the city: and set thy face against it, and
  • it shall be
  • besieged, and thou shalt lay siege against it. This [shall be] a
  • sign to the
  • house of Israel.
  • EZE-4:4 Lie thou also upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity
  • of the house
  • of Israel upon it: [according] to the number of the days that
  • thou shalt lie
  • upon it thou shalt bear their iniquity.
  • EZE-4:5 For I have laid upon thee the years of their iniquity,
  • according to
  • the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days: so shalt
  • thou bear the
  • iniquity of the house of Israel.
  • EZE-4:6 And when thou hast accomplished them, lie again on thy
  • right side,
  • and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty
  • days: I have
  • appointed thee each day for a year.
  • EZE-4:7 Therefore thou shalt set thy face toward the siege of
  • Jerusalem, and
  • thine arm [shall be] uncovered, and thou shalt prophesy against
  • it.
  • EZE-4:8 And, behold, I will lay bands upon thee, and thou shalt
  • not turn thee
  • from one side to another, till thou hast ended the days of thy
  • siege.
  • EZE-4:9 Take thou also unto thee wheat, and barley, and beans,
  • and lentiles,
  • and millet, and fitches, and put them in one vessel, and make
  • thee bread
  • thereof, [according] to the number of the days that thou shalt
  • lie upon thy
  • side, three hundred and ninety days shalt thou eat thereof.
  • EZE-4:10 And thy meat which thou shalt eat [shall be] by weight,
  • twenty
  • shekels a day: from time to time shalt thou eat it.
  • EZE-4:11 Thou shalt drink also water by measure, the sixth part
  • of an hin:
  • from time to time shalt thou drink.
  • EZE-4:12 And thou shalt eat it [as] barley cakes, and thou
  • shalt bake it with
  • dung that cometh out of man, in their sight.
  • EZE-4:13 And the LORD said, Even thus shall the children of
  • Israel eat their
  • defiled bread among the Gentiles, whither I will drive them.
  • EZE-4:14 Then said I, Ah Lord GOD! behold, my soul hath not
  • been polluted:
  • for from my youth up even till now have I not eaten of that
  • which dieth of
  • itself, or is torn in pieces; neither came there abominable
  • flesh into my
  • mouth.
  • EZE-4:15 Then he said unto me, Lo, I have given thee cow's dung
  • for man's
  • dung, and thou shalt prepare thy bread therewith.
  • EZE-4:16 Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, behold, I will
  • break the staff
  • of bread in Jerusalem: and they shall eat bread by weight, and
  • with care; and
  • they shall drink water by measure, and with astonishment:
  • EZE-4:17 That they may want bread and water, and be astonied
  • one with
  • another, and consume away for their iniquity.
  • EZE-5:1 And thou, son of man, take thee a sharp knife, take
  • thee a barber's
  • razor, and cause [it] to pass upon thine head and upon thy beard:
  • then take
  • thee balances to weigh, and divide the [hair].
  • EZE-5:2 Thou shalt burn with fire a third part in the midst of
  • the city, when
  • the days of the siege are fulfilled: and thou shalt take a third
  • part, [and]
  • smite about it with a knife: and a third part thou shalt scatter
  • in the wind;
  • and I will draw out a sword after them.
  • EZE-5:3 Thou shalt also take thereof a few in number, and bind
  • them in thy
  • skirts.
  • EZE-5:4 Then take of them again, and cast them into the midst
  • of the fire,
  • and burn them in the fire; [for] thereof shall a fire come forth
  • into all the
  • house of Israel.
  • EZE-5:5 Thus saith the Lord GOD; This [is] Jerusalem: I have
  • set it in the
  • midst of the nations and countries [that are] round about her.
  • EZE-5:6 And she hath changed my judgments into wickedness more
  • than the
  • nations, and my statutes more than the countries that [are]
  • round about her:
  • for they have refused my judgments and my statutes, they have
  • not walked in
  • them.
  • EZE-5:7 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because ye
  • multiplied more than
  • the nations that [are] round about you, [and] have not walked in
  • my statutes,
  • neither have kept my judgments, neither have done according to
  • the judgments
  • of the nations that [are] round about you;
  • EZE-5:8 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I, even I,
  • [am] against
  • thee, and will execute judgments in the midst of thee in the
  • sight of the
  • nations.
  • EZE-5:9 And I will do in thee that which I have not done, and
  • whereunto I
  • will not do any more the like, because of all thine abominations.
  • EZE-5:10 Therefore the fathers shall eat the sons in the midst
  • of thee, and
  • the sons shall eat their fathers; and I will execute judgments
  • in thee, and
  • the whole remnant of thee will I scatter into all the winds.
  • EZE-5:11 Wherefore, [as] I live, saith the Lord GOD; Surely,
  • because thou
  • hast defiled my sanctuary with all thy detestable things, and
  • with all thine
  • abominations, therefore will I also diminish [thee]; neither
  • shall mine eye
  • spare, neither will I have any pity.
  • EZE-5:12 A third part of thee shall die with the pestilence,
  • and with famine
  • shall they be consumed in the midst of thee: and a third part
  • shall fall by
  • the sword round about thee; and I will scatter a third part into
  • all the
  • winds, and I will draw out a sword after them.
  • EZE-5:13 Thus shall mine anger be accomplished, and I will
  • cause my fury to
  • rest upon them, and I will be comforted: and they shall know
  • that I the LORD
  • have spoken [it] in my zeal, when I have accomplished my fury in
  • them.
  • EZE-5:14 Moreover I will make thee waste, and a reproach among
  • the nations
  • that [are] round about thee, in the sight of all that pass by.
  • EZE-5:15 So it shall be a reproach and a taunt, an instruction
  • and an
  • astonishment unto the nations that [are] round about thee, when
  • I shall
  • execute judgments in thee in anger and in fury and in furious
  • rebukes. I the
  • LORD have spoken [it].
  • EZE-5:16 When I shall send upon them the evil arrows of famine,
  • which shall
  • be for [their] destruction, [and] which I will send to destroy
  • you: and I will
  • increase the famine upon you, and will break your staff of bread:
  • EZE-5:17 So will I send upon you famine and evil beasts, and
  • they shall
  • bereave thee; and pestilence and blood shall pass through thee;
  • and I will
  • bring the sword upon thee. I the LORD have spoken [it].
  • EZE-6:1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-6:2 Son of man, set thy face toward the mountains of Israel,
  • and prophesy
  • against them,
  • EZE-6:3 And say, Ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of the
  • Lord GOD; Thus
  • saith the Lord GOD to the mountains, and to the hills, to the
  • rivers, and to
  • the valleys; Behold, I, [even] I, will bring a sword upon you,
  • and I will
  • destroy your high places.
  • EZE-6:4 And your altars shall be desolate, and your images
  • shall be broken:
  • and I will cast down your slain [men] before your idols.
  • EZE-6:5 And I will lay the dead carcases of the children of
  • Israel before
  • their idols; and I will scatter your bones round about your
  • altars.
  • EZE-6:6 In all your dwellingplaces the cities shall be laid
  • waste, and the
  • high places shall be desolate; that your altars may be laid
  • waste and made
  • desolate, and your idols may be broken and cease, and your
  • images may be cut
  • down, and your works may be abolished.
  • EZE-6:7 And the slain shall fall in the midst of you, and ye
  • shall know that
  • I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-6:8 Yet will I leave a remnant, that ye may have [some]
  • that shall escape
  • the sword among the nations, when ye shall be scattered through
  • the countries.
  • EZE-6:9 And they that escape of you shall remember me among the
  • nations
  • whither they shall be carried captives, because I am broken with
  • their whorish
  • heart, which hath departed from me, and with their eyes, which
  • go a whoring
  • after their idols: and they shall loathe themselves for the
  • evils which they
  • have committed in all their abominations.
  • EZE-6:10 And they shall know that I [am] the LORD, [and that] I
  • have not said
  • in vain that I would do this evil unto them.
  • EZE-6:11 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Smite with thine hand, and
  • stamp with thy
  • foot, and say, Alas for all the evil abominations of the house
  • of Israel! for
  • they shall fall by the sword, by the famine, and by the
  • pestilence.
  • EZE-6:12 He that is far off shall die of the pestilence; and he
  • that is near
  • shall fall by the sword; and he that remaineth and is besieged
  • shall die by
  • the famine: thus will I accomplish my fury upon them.
  • EZE-6:13 Then shall ye know that I [am] the LORD, when their
  • slain [men]
  • shall be among their idols round about their altars, upon every
  • high hill, in
  • all the tops of the mountains, and under every green tree, and
  • under every
  • thick oak, the place where they did offer sweet savour to all
  • their idols.
  • EZE-6:14 So will I stretch out my hand upon them, and make the
  • land desolate,
  • yea, more desolate than the wilderness toward Diblath, in all
  • their
  • habitations: and they shall know that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-7:1 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-7:2 Also, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD unto the
  • land of
  • Israel; An end, the end is come upon the four corners of the
  • land.
  • EZE-7:3 Now [is] the end [come] upon thee, and I will send mine
  • anger upon
  • thee, and will judge thee according to thy ways, and will
  • recompense upon thee
  • all thine abominations.
  • EZE-7:4 And mine eye shall not spare thee, neither will I have
  • pity: but I
  • will recompense thy ways upon thee, and thine abominations shall
  • be in the
  • midst of thee: and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-7:5 Thus saith the Lord GOD; An evil, an only evil, behold,
  • is come.
  • EZE-7:6 An end is come, the end is come: it watcheth for thee;
  • behold, it is
  • come.
  • EZE-7:7 The morning is come unto thee, O thou that dwellest in
  • the land: the
  • time is come, the day of trouble [is] near, and not the sounding
  • again of the
  • mountains.
  • EZE-7:8 Now will I shortly pour out my fury upon thee, and
  • accomplish mine
  • anger upon thee: and I will judge thee according to thy ways,
  • and will
  • recompense thee for all thine abominations.
  • EZE-7:9 And mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity:
  • I will
  • recompense thee according to thy ways and thine abominations
  • [that] are in the
  • midst of thee; and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD that
  • smiteth.
  • EZE-7:10 Behold the day, behold, it is come: the morning is
  • gone forth; the
  • rod hath blossomed, pride hath budded.
  • EZE-7:11 Violence is risen up into a rod of wickedness: none of
  • them [shall
  • remain], nor of their multitude, nor of any of theirs: neither
  • [shall there
  • be] wailing for them.
  • EZE-7:12 The time is come, the day draweth near: let not the
  • buyer rejoice,
  • nor the seller mourn: for wrath [is] upon all the multitude
  • thereof.
  • EZE-7:13 For the seller shall not return to that which is sold,
  • although they
  • were yet alive: for the vision [is] touching the whole multitude
  • thereof,
  • [which] shall not return; neither shall any strengthen himself
  • in the iniquity
  • of his life.
  • EZE-7:14 They have blown the trumpet, even to make all ready;
  • but none goeth
  • to the battle: for my wrath [is] upon all the multitude thereof.
  • EZE-7:15 The sword [is] without, and the pestilence and the
  • famine within: he
  • that [is] in the field shall die with the sword; and he that
  • [is] in the city,
  • famine and pestilence shall devour him.
  • EZE-7:16 But they that escape of them shall escape, and shall
  • be on the
  • mountains like doves of the valleys, all of them mourning, every
  • one for his
  • iniquity.
  • EZE-7:17 All hands shall be feeble, and all knees shall be weak
  • [as] water.
  • EZE-7:18 They shall also gird [themselves] with sackcloth, and
  • horror shall
  • cover them; and shame [shall be] upon all faces, and baldness
  • upon all their
  • heads.
  • EZE-7:19 They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their
  • gold shall be
  • removed: their silver and their gold shall not be able to
  • deliver them in the
  • day of the wrath of the LORD: they shall not satisfy their souls,
  • neither fill
  • their bowels: because it is the stumblingblock of their iniquity.
  • EZE-7:20 As for the beauty of his ornament, he set it in
  • majesty: but they
  • made the images of their abominations [and] of their detestable
  • things
  • therein: therefore have I set it far from them.
  • EZE-7:21 And I will give it into the hands of the strangers for
  • a prey, and
  • to the wicked of the earth for a spoil; and they shall pollute
  • it.
  • EZE-7:22 My face will I turn also from them, and they shall
  • pollute my secret
  • [place]: for the robbers shall enter into it, and defile it.
  • EZE-7:23 Make a chain: for the land is full of bloody crimes,
  • and the city is
  • full of violence.
  • EZE-7:24 Wherefore I will bring the worst of the heathen, and
  • they shall
  • possess their houses: I will also make the pomp of the strong to
  • cease; and
  • their holy places shall be defiled.
  • EZE-7:25 Destruction cometh; and they shall seek peace, and
  • [there shall be]
  • none.
  • EZE-7:26 Mischief shall come upon mischief, and rumour shall be
  • upon rumour;
  • then shall they seek a vision of the prophet; but the law shall
  • perish from
  • the priest, and counsel from the ancients.
  • EZE-7:27 The king shall mourn, and the prince shall be clothed
  • with
  • desolation, and the hands of the people of the land shall be
  • troubled: I will
  • do unto them after their way, and according to their deserts
  • will I judge
  • them; and they shall know that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-8:1 And it came to pass in the sixth year, in the sixth
  • [month], in the
  • fifth [day] of the month, [as] I sat in mine house, and the
  • elders of Judah
  • sat before me, that the hand of the Lord GOD fell there upon me.
  • EZE-8:2 Then I beheld, and lo a likeness as the appearance of
  • fire: from the
  • appearance of his loins even downward, fire; and from his loins
  • even upward,
  • as the appearance of brightness, as the colour of amber.
  • EZE-8:3 And he put forth the form of an hand, and took me by a
  • lock of mine
  • head; and the spirit lifted me up between the earth and the
  • heaven, and
  • brought me in the visions of God to Jerusalem, to the door of
  • the inner gate
  • that looketh toward the north; where [was] the seat of the image
  • of jealousy,
  • which provoketh to jealousy.
  • EZE-8:4 And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel [was] there,
  • according to
  • the vision that I saw in the plain.
  • EZE-8:5 Then said he unto me, Son of man, lift up thine eyes
  • now the way
  • toward the north. So I lifted up mine eyes the way toward the
  • north, and
  • behold northward at the gate of the altar this image of jealousy
  • in the entry.
  • EZE-8:6 He said furthermore unto me, Son of man, seest thou
  • what they do?
  • [even] the great abominations that the house of Israel
  • committeth here, that I
  • should go far off from my sanctuary? but turn thee yet again,
  • [and] thou shalt
  • see greater abominations.
  • EZE-8:7 And he brought me to the door of the court; and when I
  • looked, behold
  • a hole in the wall.
  • EZE-8:8 Then said he unto me, Son of man, dig now in the wall:
  • and when I had
  • digged in the wall, behold a door.
  • EZE-8:9 And he said unto me, Go in, and behold the wicked
  • abominations that
  • they do here.
  • EZE-8:10 So I went in and saw; and behold every form of
  • creeping things, and
  • abominable beasts, and all the idols of the house of Israel,
  • portrayed upon
  • the wall round about.
  • EZE-8:11 And there stood before them seventy men of the
  • ancients of the house
  • of Israel, and in the midst of them stood Jaazaniah the son of
  • Shaphan, with
  • every man his censer in his hand; and a thick cloud of incense
  • went up.
  • EZE-8:12 Then said he unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen what
  • the ancients
  • of the house of Israel do in the dark, every man in the chambers
  • of his
  • imagery? for they say, The LORD seeth us not; the LORD hath
  • forsaken the
  • earth.
  • EZE-8:13 He said also unto me, Turn thee yet again, [and] thou
  • shalt see
  • greater abominations that they do.
  • EZE-8:14 Then he brought me to the door of the gate of the
  • LORD'S house which
  • [was] toward the north; and, behold, there sat women weeping for
  • Tammuz.
  • EZE-8:15 Then said he unto me, Hast thou seen [this], O son of
  • man? turn thee
  • yet again, [and] thou shalt see greater abominations than these.
  • EZE-8:16 And he brought me into the inner court of the LORD'S
  • house, and,
  • behold, at the door of the temple of the LORD, between the porch
  • and the
  • altar, [were] about five and twenty men, with their backs toward
  • the temple of
  • the LORD, and their faces toward the east; and they worshipped
  • the sun toward
  • the east.
  • EZE-8:17 Then he said unto me, Hast thou seen [this], O son of
  • man? Is it a
  • light thing to the house of Judah that they commit the
  • abominations which they
  • commit here? for they have filled the land with violence, and
  • have returned to
  • provoke me to anger: and, lo, they put the branch to their nose.
  • EZE-8:18 Therefore will I also deal in fury: mine eye shall not
  • spare,
  • neither will I have pity: and though they cry in mine ears with
  • a loud voice,
  • [yet] will I not hear them.
  • EZE-9:1 He cried also in mine ears with a loud voice, saying,
  • Cause them that
  • have charge over the city to draw near, even every man [with]
  • his destroying
  • weapon in his hand.
  • EZE-9:2 And, behold, six men came from the way of the higher
  • gate, which
  • lieth toward the north, and every man a slaughter weapon in his
  • hand; and one
  • man among them [was] clothed with linen, with a writer's inkhorn
  • by his side:
  • and they went in, and stood beside the brazen altar.
  • EZE-9:3 And the glory of the God of Israel was gone up from the
  • cherub,
  • whereupon he was, to the threshold of the house. And he called
  • to the man
  • clothed with linen, which [had] the writer's inkhorn by his side;
  • EZE-9:4 And the LORD said unto him, Go through the midst of the
  • city, through
  • the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the
  • men that sigh
  • and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst
  • thereof.
  • EZE-9:5 And to the others he said in mine hearing, Go ye after
  • him through
  • the city, and smite: let not your eye spare, neither have ye
  • pity:
  • EZE-9:6 Slay utterly old [and] young, both maids, and little
  • children, and
  • women: but come not near any man upon whom [is] the mark; and
  • begin at my
  • sanctuary. Then they began at the ancient men which [were]
  • before the house.
  • EZE-9:7 And he said unto them, Defile the house, and fill the
  • courts with the
  • slain: go ye forth. And they went forth, and slew in the city.
  • EZE-9:8 And it came to pass, while they were slaying them, and
  • I was left,
  • that I fell upon my face, and cried, and said, Ah Lord GOD! wilt
  • thou destroy
  • all the residue of Israel in thy pouring out of thy fury upon
  • Jerusalem?
  • EZE-9:9 Then said he unto me, The iniquity of the house of
  • Israel and Judah
  • [is] exceeding great, and the land is full of blood, and the
  • city full of
  • perverseness: for they say, The LORD hath forsaken the earth,
  • and the LORD
  • seeth not.
  • EZE-9:10 And as for me also, mine eye shall not spare, neither
  • will I have
  • pity, [but] I will recompense their way upon their head.
  • EZE-9:11 And, behold, the man clothed with linen, which [had]
  • the inkhorn by
  • his side, reported the matter, saying, I have done as thou hast
  • commanded me.
  • EZE-10:1 Then I looked, and, behold, in the firmament that was
  • above the head
  • of the cherubims there appeared over them as it were a sapphire
  • stone, as the
  • appearance of the likeness of a throne.
  • EZE-10:2 And he spake unto the man clothed with linen, and said,
  • Go in
  • between the wheels, [even] under the cherub, and fill thine hand
  • with coals of
  • fire from between the cherubims, and scatter [them] over the
  • city. And he went
  • in in my sight.
  • EZE-10:3 Now the cherubims stood on the right side of the house,
  • when the man
  • went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.
  • EZE-10:4 Then the glory of the LORD went up from the cherub,
  • [and stood] over
  • the threshold of the house; and the house was filled with the
  • cloud, and the
  • court was full of the brightness of the LORD'S glory.
  • EZE-10:5 And the sound of the cherubims' wings was heard [even]
  • to the outer
  • court, as the voice of the Almighty God when he speaketh.
  • EZE-10:6 And it came to pass, [that] when he had commanded the
  • man clothed
  • with linen, saying, Take fire from between the wheels, from
  • between the
  • cherubims; then he went in, and stood beside the wheels.
  • EZE-10:7 And [one] cherub stretched forth his hand from between
  • the cherubims
  • unto the fire that [was] between the cherubims, and took
  • [thereof], and put
  • [it] into the hands of [him that was] clothed with linen: who
  • took [it], and
  • went out.
  • EZE-10:8 And there appeared in the cherubims the form of a
  • man's hand under
  • their wings.
  • EZE-10:9 And when I looked, behold the four wheels by the
  • cherubims, one
  • wheel by one cherub, and another wheel by another cherub: and
  • the appearance
  • of the wheels [was] as the colour of a beryl stone.
  • EZE-10:10 And [as for] their appearances, they four had one
  • likeness, as if a
  • wheel had been in the midst of a wheel.
  • EZE-10:11 When they went, they went upon their four sides; they
  • turned not as
  • they went, but to the place whither the head looked they
  • followed it; they
  • turned not as they went.
  • EZE-10:12 And their whole body, and their backs, and their
  • hands, and their
  • wings, and the wheels, [were] full of eyes round about, [even]
  • the wheels that
  • they four had.
  • EZE-10:13 As for the wheels, it was cried unto them in my
  • hearing, O wheel.
  • EZE-10:14 And every one had four faces: the first face [was]
  • the face of a
  • cherub, and the second face [was] the face of a man, and the
  • third the face of
  • a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.
  • EZE-10:15 And the cherubims were lifted up. This [is] the
  • living creature
  • that I saw by the river of Chebar.
  • EZE-10:16 And when the cherubims went, the wheels went by them:
  • and when the
  • cherubims lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the
  • same wheels
  • also turned not from beside them.
  • EZE-10:17 When they stood, [these] stood; and when they were
  • lifted up,
  • [these] lifted up themselves [also]: for the spirit of the
  • living creature
  • [was] in them.
  • EZE-10:18 Then the glory of the LORD departed from off the
  • threshold of the
  • house, and stood over the cherubims.
  • EZE-10:19 And the cherubims lifted up their wings, and mounted
  • up from the
  • earth in my sight: when they went out, the wheels also [were]
  • beside them, and
  • [every one] stood at the door of the east gate of the LORD'S
  • house; and the
  • glory of the God of Israel [was] over them above.
  • EZE-10:20 This [is] the living creature that I saw under the
  • God of Israel by
  • the river of Chebar; and I knew that they [were] the cherubims.
  • EZE-10:21 Every one had four faces apiece, and every one four
  • wings; and the
  • likeness of the hands of a man [was] under their wings.
  • EZE-10:22 And the likeness of their faces [was] the same faces
  • which I saw by
  • the river of Chebar, their appearances and themselves: they went
  • every one
  • straight forward.
  • EZE-11:1 Moreover the spirit lifted me up, and brought me unto
  • the east gate
  • of the LORD'S house, which looketh eastward: and behold at the
  • door of the
  • gate five and twenty men; among whom I saw Jaazaniah the son of
  • Azur, and
  • Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, princes of the people.
  • EZE-11:2 Then said he unto me, Son of man, these [are] the men
  • that devise
  • mischief, and give wicked counsel in this city:
  • EZE-11:3 Which say, [It is] not near; let us build houses: this
  • [city is] the
  • caldron, and we [be] the flesh.
  • EZE-11:4 Therefore prophesy against them, prophesy, O son of
  • man.
  • EZE-11:5 And the Spirit of the LORD fell upon me, and said unto
  • me, Speak;
  • Thus saith the LORD; Thus have ye said, O house of Israel: for I
  • know the
  • things that come into your mind, [every one of] them.
  • EZE-11:6 Ye have multiplied your slain in this city, and ye
  • have filled the
  • streets thereof with the slain.
  • EZE-11:7 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Your slain whom ye
  • have laid in
  • the midst of it, they [are] the flesh, and this [city is] the
  • caldron: but I
  • will bring you forth out of the midst of it.
  • EZE-11:8 Ye have feared the sword; and I will bring a sword
  • upon you, saith
  • the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-11:9 And I will bring you out of the midst thereof, and
  • deliver you into
  • the hands of strangers, and will execute judgments among you.
  • EZE-11:10 Ye shall fall by the sword; I will judge you in the
  • border of
  • Israel; and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-11:11 This [city] shall not be your caldron, neither shall
  • ye be the
  • flesh in the midst thereof; [but] I will judge you in the border
  • of Israel:
  • EZE-11:12 And ye shall know that I [am] the LORD: for ye have
  • not walked in
  • my statutes, neither executed my judgments, but have done after
  • the manners of
  • the heathen that [are] round about you.
  • EZE-11:13 And it came to pass, when I prophesied, that Pelatiah
  • the son of
  • Benaiah died. Then fell I down upon my face, and cried with a
  • loud voice, and
  • said, Ah Lord GOD! wilt thou make a full end of the remnant of
  • Israel?
  • EZE-11:14 Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-11:15 Son of man, thy brethren, [even] thy brethren, the
  • men of thy
  • kindred, and all the house of Israel wholly, [are] they unto
  • whom the
  • inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, Get you far from the LORD:
  • unto us is this
  • land given in possession.
  • EZE-11:16 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Although I
  • have cast them
  • far off among the heathen, and although I have scattered them
  • among the
  • countries, yet will I be to them as a little sanctuary in the
  • countries where
  • they shall come.
  • EZE-11:17 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even
  • gather you from
  • the people, and assemble you out of the countries where ye have
  • been
  • scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.
  • EZE-11:18 And they shall come thither, and they shall take away
  • all the
  • detestable things thereof and all the abominations thereof from
  • thence.
  • EZE-11:19 And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new
  • spirit within
  • you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and
  • will give them an
  • heart of flesh:
  • EZE-11:20 That they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine
  • ordinances, and do
  • them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
  • EZE-11:21 But [as for them] whose heart walketh after the heart
  • of their
  • detestable things and their abominations, I will recompense
  • their way upon
  • their own heads, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-11:22 Then did the cherubims lift up their wings, and the
  • wheels beside
  • them; and the glory of the God of Israel [was] over them above.
  • EZE-11:23 And the glory of the LORD went up from the midst of
  • the city, and
  • stood upon the mountain which [is] on the east side of the city.
  • EZE-11:24 Afterwards the spirit took me up, and brought me in a
  • vision by the
  • Spirit of God into Chaldea, to them of the captivity. So the
  • vision that I had
  • seen went up from me.
  • EZE-11:25 Then I spake unto them of the captivity all the
  • things that the
  • LORD had showed me.
  • EZE-12:1 The word of the LORD also came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-12:2 Son of man, thou dwellest in the midst of a rebellious
  • house, which
  • have eyes to see, and see not; they have ears to hear, and hear
  • not: for they
  • [are] a rebellious house.
  • EZE-12:3 Therefore, thou son of man, prepare thee stuff for
  • removing, and
  • remove by day in their sight; and thou shalt remove from thy
  • place to another
  • place in their sight: it may be they will consider, though they
  • [be] a
  • rebellious house.
  • EZE-12:4 Then shalt thou bring forth thy stuff by day in their
  • sight, as
  • stuff for removing: and thou shalt go forth at even in their
  • sight, as they
  • that go forth into captivity.
  • EZE-12:5 Dig thou through the wall in their sight, and carry
  • out thereby.
  • EZE-12:6 In their sight shalt thou bear [it] upon [thy]
  • shoulders, [and]
  • carry [it] forth in the twilight: thou shalt cover thy face,
  • that thou see not
  • the ground: for I have set thee [for] a sign unto the house of
  • Israel.
  • EZE-12:7 And I did so as I was commanded: I brought forth my
  • stuff by day, as
  • stuff for captivity, and in the even I digged through the wall
  • with mine hand;
  • I brought [it] forth in the twilight, [and] I bare [it] upon
  • [my] shoulder in
  • their sight.
  • EZE-12:8 And in the morning came the word of the LORD unto me,
  • saying,
  • EZE-12:9 Son of man, hath not the house of Israel, the
  • rebellious house, said
  • unto thee, What doest thou?
  • EZE-12:10 Say thou unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; This
  • burden
  • [concerneth] the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of
  • Israel that [are]
  • among them.
  • EZE-12:11 Say, I [am] your sign: like as I have done, so shall
  • it be done
  • unto them: they shall remove [and] go into captivity.
  • EZE-12:12 And the prince that [is] among them shall bear upon
  • [his] shoulder
  • in the twilight, and shall go forth: they shall dig through the
  • wall to carry
  • out thereby: he shall cover his face, that he see not the ground
  • with [his]
  • eyes.
  • EZE-12:13 My net also will I spread upon him, and he shall be
  • taken in my
  • snare: and I will bring him to Babylon [to] the land of the
  • Chaldeans; yet
  • shall he not see it, though he shall die there.
  • EZE-12:14 And I will scatter toward every wind all that [are]
  • about him to
  • help him, and all his bands; and I will draw out the sword after
  • them.
  • EZE-12:15 And they shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I
  • shall scatter them
  • among the nations, and disperse them in the countries.
  • EZE-12:16 But I will leave a few men of them from the sword,
  • from the famine,
  • and from the pestilence; that they may declare all their
  • abominations among
  • the heathen whither they come; and they shall know that I [am]
  • the LORD.
  • EZE-12:17 Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
  • EZE-12:18 Son of man, eat thy bread with quaking, and drink thy
  • water with
  • trembling and with carefulness;
  • EZE-12:19 And say unto the people of the land, Thus saith the
  • Lord GOD of the
  • inhabitants of Jerusalem, [and] of the land of Israel; They
  • shall eat their
  • bread with carefulness, and drink their water with astonishment,
  • that her land
  • may be desolate from all that is therein, because of the
  • violence of all them
  • that dwell therein.
  • EZE-12:20 And the cities that are inhabited shall be laid waste,
  • and the land
  • shall be desolate; and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-12:21 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-12:22 Son of man, what [is] that proverb [that] ye have in
  • the land of
  • Israel, saying, The days are prolonged, and every vision
  • faileth?
  • EZE-12:23 Tell them therefore, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will
  • make this
  • proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in
  • Israel; but
  • say unto them, The days are at hand, and the effect of every
  • vision.
  • EZE-12:24 For there shall be no more any vain vision nor
  • flattering
  • divination within the house of Israel.
  • EZE-12:25 For I [am] the LORD: I will speak, and the word that
  • I shall speak
  • shall come to pass; it shall be no more prolonged: for in your
  • days, O
  • rebellious house, will I say the word, and will perform it,
  • saith the Lord
  • GOD.
  • EZE-12:26 Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
  • EZE-12:27 Son of man, behold, [they of] the house of Israel say,
  • The vision
  • that he seeth [is] for many days [to come], and he prophesieth
  • of the times
  • [that are] far off.
  • EZE-12:28 Therefore say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD;
  • There shall none
  • of my words be prolonged any more, but the word which I have
  • spoken shall be
  • done, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-13:1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-13:2 Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel
  • that prophesy,
  • and say thou unto them that prophesy out of their own hearts,
  • Hear ye the word
  • of the LORD;
  • EZE-13:3 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe unto the foolish prophets,
  • that follow
  • their own spirit, and have seen nothing!
  • EZE-13:4 O Israel, thy prophets are like the foxes in the
  • deserts.
  • EZE-13:5 Ye have not gone up into the gaps, neither made up the
  • hedge for the
  • house of Israel to stand in the battle in the day of the LORD.
  • EZE-13:6 They have seen vanity and lying divination, saying,
  • The LORD saith:
  • and the LORD hath not sent them: and they have made [others] to
  • hope that they
  • would confirm the word.
  • EZE-13:7 Have ye not seen a vain vision, and have ye not spoken
  • a lying
  • divination, whereas ye say, The LORD saith [it]; albeit I have
  • not spoken?
  • EZE-13:8 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because ye have
  • spoken vanity,
  • and seen lies, therefore, behold, I [am] against you, saith the
  • Lord GOD.
  • EZE-13:9 And mine hand shall be upon the prophets that see
  • vanity, and that
  • divine lies: they shall not be in the assembly of my people,
  • neither shall
  • they be written in the writing of the house of Israel, neither
  • shall they
  • enter into the land of Israel; and ye shall know that I [am] the
  • Lord GOD.
  • EZE-13:10 Because, even because they have seduced my people,
  • saying, Peace;
  • and [there was] no peace; and one built up a wall, and, lo,
  • others daubed it
  • with untempered [mortar]:
  • EZE-13:11 Say unto them which daub [it] with untempered
  • [mortar], that it
  • shall fall: there shall be an overflowing shower; and ye, O
  • great hailstones,
  • shall fall; and a stormy wind shall rend [it].
  • EZE-13:12 Lo, when the wall is fallen, shall it not be said
  • unto you, Where
  • [is] the daubing wherewith ye have daubed [it]?
  • EZE-13:13 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even rend
  • [it] with a
  • stormy wind in my fury; and there shall be an overflowing shower
  • in mine
  • anger, and great hailstones in [my] fury to consume [it].
  • EZE-13:14 So will I break down the wall that ye have daubed
  • with untempered
  • [mortar], and bring it down to the ground, so that the
  • foundation thereof
  • shall be discovered, and it shall fall, and ye shall be consumed
  • in the midst
  • thereof: and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-13:15 Thus will I accomplish my wrath upon the wall, and
  • upon them that
  • have daubed it with untempered [mortar], and will say unto you,
  • The wall [is]
  • no [more], neither they that daubed it;
  • EZE-13:16 [To wit], the prophets of Israel which prophesy
  • concerning
  • Jerusalem, and which see visions of peace for her, and [there
  • is] no peace,
  • saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-13:17 Likewise, thou son of man, set thy face against the
  • daughters of
  • thy people, which prophesy out of their own heart; and prophesy
  • thou against
  • them,
  • EZE-13:18 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe to the [women]
  • that sew
  • pillows to all armholes, and make kerchiefs upon the head of
  • every stature to
  • hunt souls! Will ye hunt the souls of my people, and will ye
  • save the souls
  • alive [that come] unto you?
  • EZE-13:19 And will ye pollute me among my people for handfuls
  • of barley and
  • for pieces of bread, to slay the souls that should not die, and
  • to save the
  • souls alive that should not live, by your lying to my people
  • that hear [your]
  • lies?
  • EZE-13:20 Wherefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I [am]
  • against your
  • pillows, wherewith ye there hunt the souls to make [them] fly,
  • and I will tear
  • them from your arms, and will let the souls go, [even] the souls
  • that ye hunt
  • to make [them] fly.
  • EZE-13:21 Your kerchiefs also will I tear, and deliver my
  • people out of your
  • hand, and they shall be no more in your hand to be hunted; and
  • ye shall know
  • that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-13:22 Because with lies ye have made the heart of the
  • righteous sad, whom
  • I have not made sad; and strengthened the hands of the wicked,
  • that he should
  • not return from his wicked way, by promising him life:
  • EZE-13:23 Therefore ye shall see no more vanity, nor divine
  • divinations: for
  • I will deliver my people out of your hand: and ye shall know
  • that I [am] the
  • LORD.
  • EZE-14:1 Then came certain of the elders of Israel unto me, and
  • sat before
  • me.
  • EZE-14:2 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-14:3 Son of man, these men have set up their idols in their
  • heart, and
  • put the stumblingblock of their iniquity before their face:
  • should I be
  • inquired of at all by them?
  • EZE-14:4 Therefore speak unto them, and say unto them, Thus
  • saith the Lord
  • GOD; Every man of the house of Israel that setteth up his idols
  • in his heart,
  • and putteth the stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face,
  • and cometh to
  • the prophet; I the LORD will answer him that cometh according to
  • the multitude
  • of his idols;
  • EZE-14:5 That I may take the house of Israel in their own heart,
  • because they
  • are all estranged from me through their idols.
  • EZE-14:6 Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the
  • Lord GOD;
  • Repent, and turn [yourselves] from your idols; and turn away
  • your faces from
  • all your abominations.
  • EZE-14:7 For every one of the house of Israel, or of the
  • stranger that
  • sojourneth in Israel, which separateth himself from me, and
  • setteth up his
  • idols in his heart, and putteth the stumblingblock of his
  • iniquity before his
  • face, and cometh to a prophet to inquire of him concerning me; I
  • the LORD will
  • answer him by myself:
  • EZE-14:8 And I will set my face against that man, and will make
  • him a sign
  • and a proverb, and I will cut him off from the midst of my
  • people; and ye
  • shall know that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-14:9 And if the prophet be deceived when he hath spoken a
  • thing, I the
  • LORD have deceived that prophet, and I will stretch out my hand
  • upon him, and
  • will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel.
  • EZE-14:10 And they shall bear the punishment of their iniquity:
  • the
  • punishment of the prophet shall be even as the punishment of him
  • that seeketh
  • [unto him];
  • EZE-14:11 That the house of Israel may go no more astray from
  • me, neither be
  • polluted any more with all their transgressions; but that they
  • may be my
  • people, and I may be their God, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-14:12 The word of the LORD came again to me, saying,
  • EZE-14:13 Son of man, when the land sinneth against me by
  • trespassing
  • grievously, then will I stretch out mine hand upon it, and will
  • break the
  • staff of the bread thereof, and will send famine upon it, and
  • will cut off man
  • and beast from it:
  • EZE-14:14 Though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were
  • in it, they
  • should deliver [but] their own souls by their righteousness,
  • saith the Lord
  • GOD.
  • EZE-14:15 If I cause noisome beasts to pass through the land,
  • and they spoil
  • it, so that it be desolate, that no man may pass through because
  • of the
  • beasts:
  • EZE-14:16 [Though] these three men [were] in it, [as] I live,
  • saith the Lord
  • GOD, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters; they only
  • shall be
  • delivered, but the land shall be desolate.
  • EZE-14:17 Or [if] I bring a sword upon that land, and say,
  • Sword, go through
  • the land; so that I cut off man and beast from it:
  • EZE-14:18 Though these three men [were] in it, [as] I live,
  • saith the Lord
  • GOD, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters, but they
  • only shall be
  • delivered themselves.
  • EZE-14:19 Or [if] I send a pestilence into that land, and pour
  • out my fury
  • upon it in blood, to cut off from it man and beast:
  • EZE-14:20 Though Noah, Daniel, and Job, [were] in it, [as] I
  • live, saith the
  • Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither son nor daughter; they
  • shall [but]
  • deliver their own souls by their righteousness.
  • EZE-14:21 For thus saith the Lord GOD; How much more when I
  • send my four sore
  • judgments upon Jerusalem, the sword, and the famine, and the
  • noisome beast,
  • and the pestilence, to cut off from it man and beast?
  • EZE-14:22 Yet, behold, therein shall be left a remnant that
  • shall be brought
  • forth, [both] sons and daughters: behold, they shall come forth
  • unto you, and
  • ye shall see their way and their doings: and ye shall be
  • comforted concerning
  • the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, [even] concerning
  • all that I have
  • brought upon it.
  • EZE-14:23 And they shall comfort you, when ye see their ways
  • and their
  • doings: and ye shall know that I have not done without cause all
  • that I have
  • done in it, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-15:1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-15:2 Son of man, What is the vine tree more than any tree,
  • [or than] a
  • branch which is among the trees of the forest?
  • EZE-15:3 Shall wood be taken thereof to do any work? or will
  • [men] take a pin
  • of it to hang any vessel thereon?
  • EZE-15:4 Behold, it is cast into the fire for fuel; the fire
  • devoureth both
  • the ends of it, and the midst of it is burned. Is it meet for
  • [any] work?
  • EZE-15:5 Behold, when it was whole, it was meet for no work:
  • how much less
  • shall it be meet yet for [any] work, when the fire hath devoured
  • it, and it is
  • burned?
  • EZE-15:6 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; As the vine tree
  • among the trees
  • of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so will
  • I give the
  • inhabitants of Jerusalem.
  • EZE-15:7 And I will set my face against them; they shall go out
  • from [one]
  • fire, and [another] fire shall devour them; and ye shall know
  • that I [am] the
  • LORD, when I set my face against them.
  • EZE-15:8 And I will make the land desolate, because they have
  • committed a
  • trespass, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-16:1 Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-16:2 Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations,
  • EZE-16:3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD unto Jerusalem; Thy
  • birth and thy
  • nativity [is] of the land of Canaan; thy father [was] an Amorite,
  • and thy
  • mother an Hittite.
  • EZE-16:4 And [as for] thy nativity, in the day thou wast born
  • thy navel was
  • not cut, neither wast thou washed in water to supple [thee];
  • thou wast not
  • salted at all, nor swaddled at all.
  • EZE-16:5 None eye pitied thee, to do any of these unto thee, to
  • have
  • compassion upon thee; but thou wast cast out in the open field,
  • to the
  • loathing of thy person, in the day that thou wast born.
  • EZE-16:6 And when I passed by thee, and saw thee polluted in
  • thine own blood,
  • I said unto thee [when thou wast] in thy blood, Live; yea, I
  • said unto thee
  • [when thou wast] in thy blood, Live.
  • EZE-16:7 I have caused thee to multiply as the bud of the field,
  • and thou
  • hast increased and waxen great, and thou art come to excellent
  • ornaments:
  • [thy] breasts are fashioned, and thine hair is grown, whereas
  • thou [wast]
  • naked and bare.
  • EZE-16:8 Now when I passed by thee, and looked upon thee,
  • behold, thy time
  • [was] the time of love; and I spread my skirt over thee, and
  • covered thy
  • nakedness: yea, I sware unto thee, and entered into a covenant
  • with thee,
  • saith the Lord GOD, and thou becamest mine.
  • EZE-16:9 Then washed I thee with water; yea, I thoroughly
  • washed away thy
  • blood from thee, and I anointed thee with oil.
  • EZE-16:10 I clothed thee also with broidered work, and shod
  • thee with
  • badgers' skin, and I girded thee about with fine linen, and I
  • covered thee
  • with silk.
  • EZE-16:11 I decked thee also with ornaments, and I put
  • bracelets upon thy
  • hands, and a chain on thy neck.
  • EZE-16:12 And I put a jewel on thy forehead, and earrings in
  • thine ears, and
  • a beautiful crown upon thine head.
  • EZE-16:13 Thus wast thou decked with gold and silver; and thy
  • raiment [was
  • of] fine linen, and silk, and broidered work; thou didst eat
  • fine flour, and
  • honey, and oil: and thou wast exceeding beautiful, and thou
  • didst prosper into
  • a kingdom.
  • EZE-16:14 And thy renown went forth among the heathen for thy
  • beauty: for it
  • [was] perfect through my comeliness, which I had put upon thee,
  • saith the Lord
  • GOD.
  • EZE-16:15 But thou didst trust in thine own beauty, and
  • playedst the harlot
  • because of thy renown, and pouredst out thy fornications on
  • every one that
  • passed by; his it was.
  • EZE-16:16 And of thy garments thou didst take, and deckedst thy
  • high places
  • with divers colours, and playedst the harlot thereupon: [the
  • like things]
  • shall not come, neither shall it be [so].
  • EZE-16:17 Thou hast also taken thy fair jewels of my gold and
  • of my silver,
  • which I had given thee, and madest to thyself images of men, and
  • didst commit
  • whoredom with them,
  • EZE-16:18 And tookest thy broidered garments, and coveredst
  • them: and thou
  • hast set mine oil and mine incense before them.
  • EZE-16:19 My meat also which I gave thee, fine flour, and oil,
  • and honey,
  • [wherewith] I fed thee, thou hast even set it before them for a
  • sweet savour:
  • and [thus] it was, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-16:20 Moreover thou hast taken thy sons and thy daughters,
  • whom thou hast
  • borne unto me, and these hast thou sacrificed unto them to be
  • devoured. [Is
  • this] of thy whoredoms a small matter,
  • EZE-16:21 That thou hast slain my children, and delivered them
  • to cause them
  • to pass through [the fire] for them?
  • EZE-16:22 And in all thine abominations and thy whoredoms thou
  • hast not
  • remembered the days of thy youth, when thou wast naked and bare,
  • [and] wast
  • polluted in thy blood.
  • EZE-16:23 And it came to pass after all thy wickedness, (woe,
  • woe unto thee!
  • saith the Lord GOD;)
  • EZE-16:24 [That] thou hast also built unto thee an eminent
  • place, and hast
  • made thee an high place in every street.
  • EZE-16:25 Thou hast built thy high place at every head of the
  • way, and hast
  • made thy beauty to be abhorred, and hast opened thy feet to
  • every one that
  • passed by, and multiplied thy whoredoms.
  • EZE-16:26 Thou hast also committed fornication with the
  • Egyptians thy
  • neighbours, great of flesh; and hast increased thy whoredoms, to
  • provoke me to
  • anger.
  • EZE-16:27 Behold, therefore I have stretched out my hand over
  • thee, and have
  • diminished thine ordinary [food], and delivered thee unto the
  • will of them
  • that hate thee, the daughters of the Philistines, which are
  • ashamed of thy
  • lewd way.
  • EZE-16:28 Thou hast played the whore also with the Assyrians,
  • because thou
  • wast unsatiable; yea, thou hast played the harlot with them, and
  • yet couldest
  • not be satisfied.
  • EZE-16:29 Thou hast moreover multiplied thy fornication in the
  • land of Canaan
  • unto Chaldea; and yet thou wast not satisfied herewith.
  • EZE-16:30 How weak is thine heart, saith the Lord GOD, seeing
  • thou doest all
  • these [things], the work of an imperious whorish woman;
  • EZE-16:31 In that thou buildest thine eminent place in the head
  • of every way,
  • and makest thine high place in every street; and hast not been
  • as an harlot,
  • in that thou scornest hire;
  • EZE-16:32 [But as] a wife that committeth adultery, [which]
  • taketh strangers
  • instead of her husband!
  • EZE-16:33 They give gifts to all whores: but thou givest thy
  • gifts to all thy
  • lovers, and hirest them, that they may come unto thee on every
  • side for thy
  • whoredom.
  • EZE-16:34 And the contrary is in thee from [other] women in thy
  • whoredoms,
  • whereas none followeth thee to commit whoredoms: and in that
  • thou givest a
  • reward, and no reward is given unto thee, therefore thou art
  • contrary.
  • EZE-16:35 Wherefore, O harlot, hear the word of the LORD:
  • EZE-16:36 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thy filthiness was
  • poured out, and
  • thy nakedness discovered through thy whoredoms with thy lovers,
  • and with all
  • the idols of thy abominations, and by the blood of thy children,
  • which thou
  • didst give unto them;
  • EZE-16:37 Behold, therefore I will gather all thy lovers, with
  • whom thou hast
  • taken pleasure, and all [them] that thou hast loved, with all
  • [them] that thou
  • hast hated; I will even gather them round about against thee,
  • and will
  • discover thy nakedness unto them, that they may see all thy
  • nakedness.
  • EZE-16:38 And I will judge thee, as women that break wedlock
  • and shed blood
  • are judged; and I will give thee blood in fury and jealousy.
  • EZE-16:39 And I will also give thee into their hand, and they
  • shall throw
  • down thine eminent place, and shall break down thy high places:
  • they shall
  • strip thee also of thy clothes, and shall take thy fair jewels,
  • and leave thee
  • naked and bare.
  • EZE-16:40 They shall also bring up a company against thee, and
  • they shall
  • stone thee with stones, and thrust thee through with their
  • swords.
  • EZE-16:41 And they shall burn thine houses with fire, and
  • execute judgments
  • upon thee in the sight of many women: and I will cause thee to
  • cease from
  • playing the harlot, and thou also shalt give no hire any more.
  • EZE-16:42 So will I make my fury toward thee to rest, and my
  • jealousy shall
  • depart from thee, and I will be quiet, and will be no more angry.
  • EZE-16:43 Because thou hast not remembered the days of thy
  • youth, but hast
  • fretted me in all these [things]; behold, therefore I also will
  • recompense thy
  • way upon [thine] head, saith the Lord GOD: and thou shalt not
  • commit this
  • lewdness above all thine abominations.
  • EZE-16:44 Behold, every one that useth proverbs shall use
  • [this] proverb
  • against thee, saying, As [is] the mother, [so is] her daughter.
  • EZE-16:45 Thou [art] thy mother's daughter, that loatheth her
  • husband and her
  • children; and thou [art] the sister of thy sisters, which
  • loathed their
  • husbands and their children: your mother [was] an Hittite, and
  • your father an
  • Amorite.
  • EZE-16:46 And thine elder sister [is] Samaria, she and her
  • daughters that
  • dwell at thy left hand: and thy younger sister, that dwelleth at
  • thy right
  • hand, [is] Sodom and her daughters.
  • EZE-16:47 Yet hast thou not walked after their ways, nor done
  • after their
  • abominations: but, as [if that were] a very little [thing], thou
  • wast
  • corrupted more than they in all thy ways.
  • EZE-16:48 [As] I live, saith the Lord GOD, Sodom thy sister
  • hath not done,
  • she nor her daughters, as thou hast done, thou and thy daughters.
  • EZE-16:49 Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom,
  • pride, fulness
  • of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her
  • daughters, neither
  • did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.
  • EZE-16:50 And they were haughty, and committed abomination
  • before me:
  • therefore I took them away as I saw [good].
  • EZE-16:51 Neither hath Samaria committed half of thy sins; but
  • thou hast
  • multiplied thine abominations more than they, and hast justified
  • thy sisters
  • in all thine abominations which thou hast done.
  • EZE-16:52 Thou also, which hast judged thy sisters, bear thine
  • own shame for
  • thy sins that thou hast committed more abominable than they:
  • they are more
  • righteous than thou: yea, be thou confounded also, and bear thy
  • shame, in that
  • thou hast justified thy sisters.
  • EZE-16:53 When I shall bring again their captivity, the
  • captivity of Sodom
  • and her daughters, and the captivity of Samaria and her
  • daughters, then [will
  • I bring again] the captivity of thy captives in the midst of
  • them:
  • EZE-16:54 That thou mayest bear thine own shame, and mayest be
  • confounded in
  • all that thou hast done, in that thou art a comfort unto them.
  • EZE-16:55 When thy sisters, Sodom and her daughters, shall
  • return to their
  • former estate, and Samaria and her daughters shall return to
  • their former
  • estate, then thou and thy daughters shall return to your former
  • estate.
  • EZE-16:56 For thy sister Sodom was not mentioned by thy mouth
  • in the day of
  • thy pride,
  • EZE-16:57 Before thy wickedness was discovered, as at the time
  • of [thy]
  • reproach of the daughters of Syria, and all [that are] round
  • about her, the
  • daughters of the Philistines, which despise thee round about.
  • EZE-16:58 Thou hast borne thy lewdness and thine abominations,
  • saith the
  • LORD.
  • EZE-16:59 For thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even deal with
  • thee as thou
  • hast done, which hast despised the oath in breaking the covenant.
  • EZE-16:60 Nevertheless I will remember my covenant with thee in
  • the days of
  • thy youth, and I will establish unto thee an everlasting
  • covenant.
  • EZE-16:61 Then thou shalt remember thy ways, and be ashamed,
  • when thou shalt
  • receive thy sisters, thine elder and thy younger: and I will
  • give them unto
  • thee for daughters, but not by thy covenant.
  • EZE-16:62 And I will establish my covenant with thee; and thou
  • shalt know
  • that I [am] the LORD:
  • EZE-16:63 That thou mayest remember, and be confounded, and
  • never open thy
  • mouth any more because of thy shame, when I am pacified toward
  • thee for all
  • that thou hast done, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-17:1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-17:2 Son of man, put forth a riddle, and speak a parable
  • unto the house
  • of Israel;
  • EZE-17:3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; A great eagle with
  • great wings,
  • longwinged, full of feathers, which had divers colours, came
  • unto Lebanon, and
  • took the highest branch of the cedar:
  • EZE-17:4 He cropped off the top of his young twigs, and carried
  • it into a
  • land of traffic; he set it in a city of merchants.
  • EZE-17:5 He took also of the seed of the land, and planted it
  • in a fruitful
  • field; he placed [it] by great waters, [and] set it [as] a
  • willow tree.
  • EZE-17:6 And it grew, and became a spreading vine of low
  • stature, whose
  • branches turned toward him, and the roots thereof were under him:
  • so it became
  • a vine, and brought forth branches, and shot forth sprigs.
  • EZE-17:7 There was also another great eagle with great wings
  • and many
  • feathers: and, behold, this vine did bend her roots toward him,
  • and shot forth
  • her branches toward him, that he might water it by the furrows
  • of her
  • plantation.
  • EZE-17:8 It was planted in a good soil by great waters, that it
  • might bring
  • forth branches, and that it might bear fruit, that it might be a
  • goodly vine.
  • EZE-17:9 Say thou, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Shall it prosper?
  • shall he not
  • pull up the roots thereof, and cut off the fruit thereof, that
  • it wither? it
  • shall wither in all the leaves of her spring, even without great
  • power or many
  • people to pluck it up by the roots thereof.
  • EZE-17:10 Yea, behold, [being] planted, shall it prosper? shall
  • it not
  • utterly wither, when the east wind toucheth it? it shall wither
  • in the furrows
  • where it grew.
  • EZE-17:11 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-17:12 Say now to the rebellious house, Know ye not what
  • these [things
  • mean]? tell [them], Behold, the king of Babylon is come to
  • Jerusalem, and hath
  • taken the king thereof, and the princes thereof, and led them
  • with him to
  • Babylon;
  • EZE-17:13 And hath taken of the king's seed, and made a
  • covenant with him,
  • and hath taken an oath of him: he hath also taken the mighty of
  • the land:
  • EZE-17:14 That the kingdom might be base, that it might not
  • lift itself up,
  • [but] that by keeping of his covenant it might stand.
  • EZE-17:15 But he rebelled against him in sending his
  • ambassadors into Egypt,
  • that they might give him horses and much people. Shall he
  • prosper? shall he
  • escape that doeth such [things]? or shall he break the covenant,
  • and be
  • delivered?
  • EZE-17:16 [As] I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely in the place
  • [where] the
  • king [dwelleth] that made him king, whose oath he despised, and
  • whose covenant
  • he brake, [even] with him in the midst of Babylon he shall die.
  • EZE-17:17 Neither shall Pharaoh with [his] mighty army and
  • great company make
  • for him in the war, by casting up mounts, and building forts, to
  • cut off many
  • persons:
  • EZE-17:18 Seeing he despised the oath by breaking the covenant,
  • when, lo, he
  • had given his hand, and hath done all these [things], he shall
  • not escape.
  • EZE-17:19 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; [As] I live,
  • surely mine oath
  • that he hath despised, and my covenant that he hath broken, even
  • it will I
  • recompense upon his own head.
  • EZE-17:20 And I will spread my net upon him, and he shall be
  • taken in my
  • snare, and I will bring him to Babylon, and will plead with him
  • there for his
  • trespass that he hath trespassed against me.
  • EZE-17:21 And all his fugitives with all his bands shall fall
  • by the sword,
  • and they that remain shall be scattered toward all winds: and ye
  • shall know
  • that I the LORD have spoken [it].
  • EZE-17:22 Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will also take of the
  • highest branch of
  • the high cedar, and will set [it]; I will crop off from the top
  • of his young
  • twigs a tender one, and will plant [it] upon an high mountain
  • and eminent:
  • EZE-17:23 In the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant
  • it: and it
  • shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a goodly cedar:
  • and under it
  • shall dwell all fowl of every wing; in the shadow of the
  • branches thereof
  • shall they dwell.
  • EZE-17:24 And all the trees of the field shall know that I the
  • LORD have
  • brought down the high tree, have exalted the low tree, have
  • dried up the green
  • tree, and have made the dry tree to flourish: I the LORD have
  • spoken and have
  • done [it].
  • EZE-18:1 The word of the LORD came unto me again, saying,
  • EZE-18:2 What mean ye, that ye use this proverb concerning the
  • land of
  • Israel, saying, The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the
  • children's teeth
  • are set on edge?
  • EZE-18:3 [As] I live, saith the Lord GOD, ye shall not have
  • [occasion] any
  • more to use this proverb in Israel.
  • EZE-18:4 Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father,
  • so also the
  • soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.
  • EZE-18:5 But if a man be just, and do that which is lawful and
  • right,
  • EZE-18:6 [And] hath not eaten upon the mountains, neither hath
  • lifted up his
  • eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, neither hath defiled
  • his neighbour's
  • wife, neither hath come near to a menstruous woman,
  • EZE-18:7 And hath not oppressed any, [but] hath restored to the
  • debtor his
  • pledge, hath spoiled none by violence, hath given his bread to
  • the hungry, and
  • hath covered the naked with a garment;
  • EZE-18:8 He [that] hath not given forth upon usury, neither
  • hath taken any
  • increase, [that] hath withdrawn his hand from iniquity, hath
  • executed true
  • judgment between man and man,
  • EZE-18:9 Hath walked in my statutes, and hath kept my judgments,
  • to deal
  • truly; he [is] just, he shall surely live, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-18:10 If he beget a son [that is] a robber, a shedder of
  • blood, and
  • [that] doeth the like to [any] one of these [things],
  • EZE-18:11 And that doeth not any of those [duties], but even
  • hath eaten upon
  • the mountains, and defiled his neighbour's wife,
  • EZE-18:12 Hath oppressed the poor and needy, hath spoiled by
  • violence, hath
  • not restored the pledge, and hath lifted up his eyes to the
  • idols, hath
  • committed abomination,
  • EZE-18:13 Hath given forth upon usury, and hath taken increase:
  • shall he then
  • live? he shall not live: he hath done all these abominations; he
  • shall surely
  • die; his blood shall be upon him.
  • EZE-18:14 Now, lo, [if] he beget a son, that seeth all his
  • father's sins
  • which he hath done, and considereth, and doeth not such like,
  • EZE-18:15 [That] hath not eaten upon the mountains, neither
  • hath lifted up
  • his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, hath not defiled
  • his neighbour's
  • wife,
  • EZE-18:16 Neither hath oppressed any, hath not withholden the
  • pledge, neither
  • hath spoiled by violence, [but] hath given his bread to the
  • hungry, and hath
  • covered the naked with a garment,
  • EZE-18:17 [That] hath taken off his hand from the poor, [that]
  • hath not
  • received usury nor increase, hath executed my judgments, hath
  • walked in my
  • statutes; he shall not die for the iniquity of his father, he
  • shall surely
  • live.
  • EZE-18:18 [As for] his father, because he cruelly oppressed,
  • spoiled his
  • brother by violence, and did [that] which [is] not good among
  • his people, lo,
  • even he shall die in his iniquity.
  • EZE-18:19 Yet say ye, Why? doth not the son bear the iniquity
  • of the father?
  • When the son hath done that which is lawful and right, [and]
  • hath kept all my
  • statutes, and hath done them, he shall surely live.
  • EZE-18:20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall
  • not bear the
  • iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the
  • iniquity of the son:
  • the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the
  • wickedness of
  • the wicked shall be upon him.
  • EZE-18:21 But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he
  • hath
  • committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful
  • and right, he
  • shall surely live, he shall not die.
  • EZE-18:22 All his transgressions that he hath committed, they
  • shall not be
  • mentioned unto him: in his righteousness that he hath done he
  • shall live.
  • EZE-18:23 Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should
  • die? saith the
  • Lord GOD: [and] not that he should return from his ways, and
  • live?
  • EZE-18:24 But when the righteous turneth away from his
  • righteousness, and
  • committeth iniquity, [and] doeth according to all the
  • abominations that the
  • wicked [man] doeth, shall he live? All his righteousness that he
  • hath done
  • shall not be mentioned: in his trespass that he hath trespassed,
  • and in his
  • sin that he hath sinned, in them shall he die.
  • EZE-18:25 Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equal. Hear
  • now, O house of
  • Israel; Is not my way equal? are not your ways unequal?
  • EZE-18:26 When a righteous [man] turneth away from his
  • righteousness, and
  • committeth iniquity, and dieth in them; for his iniquity that he
  • hath done
  • shall he die.
  • EZE-18:27 Again, when the wicked [man] turneth away from his
  • wickedness that
  • he hath committed, and doeth that which is lawful and right, he
  • shall save his
  • soul alive.
  • EZE-18:28 Because he considereth, and turneth away from all his
  • transgressions that he hath committed, he shall surely live, he
  • shall not die.
  • EZE-18:29 Yet saith the house of Israel, The way of the Lord is
  • not equal. O
  • house of Israel, are not my ways equal? are not your ways
  • unequal?
  • EZE-18:30 Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every
  • one according
  • to his ways, saith the Lord GOD. Repent, and turn [yourselves]
  • from all your
  • transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin.
  • EZE-18:31 Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby
  • ye have
  • transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why
  • will ye die,
  • O house of Israel?
  • EZE-18:32 For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth,
  • saith the
  • Lord GOD: wherefore turn [yourselves], and live ye.
  • EZE-19:1 Moreover take thou up a lamentation for the princes of
  • Israel,
  • EZE-19:2 And say, What [is] thy mother? A lioness: she lay down
  • among lions,
  • she nourished her whelps among young lions.
  • EZE-19:3 And she brought up one of her whelps: it became a
  • young lion, and it
  • learned to catch the prey; it devoured men.
  • EZE-19:4 The nations also heard of him; he was taken in their
  • pit, and they
  • brought him with chains unto the land of Egypt.
  • EZE-19:5 Now when she saw that she had waited, [and] her hope
  • was lost, then
  • she took another of her whelps, [and] made him a young lion.
  • EZE-19:6 And he went up and down among the lions, he became a
  • young lion, and
  • learned to catch the prey, [and] devoured men.
  • EZE-19:7 And he knew their desolate palaces, and he laid waste
  • their cities;
  • and the land was desolate, and the fulness thereof, by the noise
  • of his
  • roaring.
  • EZE-19:8 Then the nations set against him on every side from
  • the provinces,
  • and spread their net over him: he was taken in their pit.
  • EZE-19:9 And they put him in ward in chains, and brought him to
  • the king of
  • Babylon: they brought him into holds, that his voice should no
  • more be heard
  • upon the mountains of Israel.
  • EZE-19:10 Thy mother [is] like a vine in thy blood, planted by
  • the waters:
  • she was fruitful and full of branches by reason of many waters.
  • EZE-19:11 And she had strong rods for the sceptres of them that
  • bare rule,
  • and her stature was exalted among the thick branches, and she
  • appeared in her
  • height with the multitude of her branches.
  • EZE-19:12 But she was plucked up in fury, she was cast down to
  • the ground,
  • and the east wind dried up her fruit: her strong rods were
  • broken and
  • withered; the fire consumed them.
  • EZE-19:13 And now she [is] planted in the wilderness, in a dry
  • and thirsty
  • ground.
  • EZE-19:14 And fire is gone out of a rod of her branches,
  • [which] hath
  • devoured her fruit, so that she hath no strong rod [to be] a
  • sceptre to rule.
  • This [is] a lamentation, and shall be for a lamentation.
  • EZE-20:1 And it came to pass in the seventh year, in the fifth
  • [month], the
  • tenth [day] of the month, [that] certain of the elders of Israel
  • came to
  • inquire of the LORD, and sat before me.
  • EZE-20:2 Then came the word of the LORD unto me, saying,
  • EZE-20:3 Son of man, speak unto the elders of Israel, and say
  • unto them, Thus
  • saith the Lord GOD; Are ye come to inquire of me? [As] I live,
  • saith the Lord
  • GOD, I will not be inquired of by you.
  • EZE-20:4 Wilt thou judge them, son of man, wilt thou judge
  • [them]? cause them
  • to know the abominations of their fathers:
  • EZE-20:5 And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day
  • when I chose
  • Israel, and lifted up mine hand unto the seed of the house of
  • Jacob, and made
  • myself known unto them in the land of Egypt, when I lifted up
  • mine hand unto
  • them, saying, I [am] the LORD your God;
  • EZE-20:6 In the day [that] I lifted up mine hand unto them, to
  • bring them
  • forth of the land of Egypt into a land that I had espied for
  • them, flowing
  • with milk and honey, which [is] the glory of all lands:
  • EZE-20:7 Then said I unto them, Cast ye away every man the
  • abominations of
  • his eyes, and defile not yourselves with the idols of Egypt: I
  • [am] the LORD
  • your God.
  • EZE-20:8 But they rebelled against me, and would not hearken
  • unto me: they
  • did not every man cast away the abominations of their eyes,
  • neither did they
  • forsake the idols of Egypt: then I said, I will pour out my fury
  • upon them, to
  • accomplish my anger against them in the midst of the land of
  • Egypt.
  • EZE-20:9 But I wrought for my name's sake, that it should not
  • be polluted
  • before the heathen, among whom they [were], in whose sight I
  • made myself known
  • unto them, in bringing them forth out of the land of Egypt.
  • EZE-20:10 Wherefore I caused them to go forth out of the land
  • of Egypt, and
  • brought them into the wilderness.
  • EZE-20:11 And I gave them my statutes, and showed them my
  • judgments, which
  • [if] a man do, he shall even live in them.
  • EZE-20:12 Moreover also I gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign
  • between me and
  • them, that they might know that I [am] the LORD that sanctify
  • them.
  • EZE-20:13 But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the
  • wilderness: they
  • walked not in my statutes, and they despised my judgments, which
  • [if] a man
  • do, he shall even live in them; and my sabbaths they greatly
  • polluted: then I
  • said, I would pour out my fury upon them in the wilderness, to
  • consume them.
  • EZE-20:14 But I wrought for my name's sake, that it should not
  • be polluted
  • before the heathen, in whose sight I brought them out.
  • EZE-20:15 Yet also I lifted up my hand unto them in the
  • wilderness, that I
  • would not bring them into the land which I had given [them],
  • flowing with milk
  • and honey, which [is] the glory of all lands;
  • EZE-20:16 Because they despised my judgments, and walked not in
  • my statutes,
  • but polluted my sabbaths: for their heart went after their idols.
  • EZE-20:17 Nevertheless mine eye spared them from destroying
  • them, neither did
  • I make an end of them in the wilderness.
  • EZE-20:18 But I said unto their children in the wilderness,
  • Walk ye not in
  • the statutes of your fathers, neither observe their judgments,
  • nor defile
  • yourselves with their idols:
  • EZE-20:19 I [am] the LORD your God; walk in my statutes, and
  • keep my
  • judgments, and do them;
  • EZE-20:20 And hallow my sabbaths; and they shall be a sign
  • between me and
  • you, that ye may know that I [am] the LORD your God.
  • EZE-20:21 Notwithstanding the children rebelled against me:
  • they walked not
  • in my statutes, neither kept my judgments to do them, which [if]
  • a man do, he
  • shall even live in them; they polluted my sabbaths: then I said,
  • I would pour
  • out my fury upon them, to accomplish my anger against them in
  • the wilderness.
  • EZE-20:22 Nevertheless I withdrew mine hand, and wrought for my
  • name's sake,
  • that it should not be polluted in the sight of the heathen, in
  • whose sight I
  • brought them forth.
  • EZE-20:23 I lifted up mine hand unto them also in the
  • wilderness, that I
  • would scatter them among the heathen, and disperse them through
  • the countries;
  • EZE-20:24 Because they had not executed my judgments, but had
  • despised my
  • statutes, and had polluted my sabbaths, and their eyes were
  • after their
  • fathers' idols.
  • EZE-20:25 Wherefore I gave them also statutes [that were] not
  • good, and
  • judgments whereby they should not live;
  • EZE-20:26 And I polluted them in their own gifts, in that they
  • caused to pass
  • through [the fire] all that openeth the womb, that I might make
  • them desolate,
  • to the end that they might know that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-20:27 Therefore, son of man, speak unto the house of Israel,
  • and say unto
  • them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Yet in this your fathers have
  • blasphemed me, in
  • that they have committed a trespass against me.
  • EZE-20:28 [For] when I had brought them into the land, [for]
  • the which I
  • lifted up mine hand to give it to them, then they saw every high
  • hill, and all
  • the thick trees, and they offered there their sacrifices, and
  • there they
  • presented the provocation of their offering: there also they
  • made their sweet
  • savour, and poured out there their drink offerings.
  • EZE-20:29 Then I said unto them, What [is] the high place
  • whereunto ye go?
  • And the name thereof is called Bamah unto this day.
  • EZE-20:30 Wherefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith
  • the Lord GOD;
  • Are ye polluted after the manner of your fathers? and commit ye
  • whoredom after
  • their abominations?
  • EZE-20:31 For when ye offer your gifts, when ye make your sons
  • to pass
  • through the fire, ye pollute yourselves with all your idols,
  • even unto this
  • day: and shall I be inquired of by you, O house of Israel? [As]
  • I live, saith
  • the Lord GOD, I will not be inquired of by you.
  • EZE-20:32 And that which cometh into your mind shall not be at
  • all, that ye
  • say, We will be as the heathen, as the families of the countries,
  • to serve
  • wood and stone.
  • EZE-20:33 [As] I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely with a mighty
  • hand, and
  • with a stretched out arm, and with fury poured out, will I rule
  • over you:
  • EZE-20:34 And I will bring you out from the people, and will
  • gather you out
  • of the countries wherein ye are scattered, with a mighty hand,
  • and with a
  • stretched out arm, and with fury poured out.
  • EZE-20:35 And I will bring you into the wilderness of the
  • people, and there
  • will I plead with you face to face.
  • EZE-20:36 Like as I pleaded with your fathers in the wilderness
  • of the land
  • of Egypt, so will I plead with you, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-20:37 And I will cause you to pass under the rod, and I
  • will bring you
  • into the bond of the covenant:
  • EZE-20:38 And I will purge out from among you the rebels, and
  • them that
  • transgress against me: I will bring them forth out of the
  • country where they
  • sojourn, and they shall not enter into the land of Israel: and
  • ye shall know
  • that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-20:39 As for you, O house of Israel, thus saith the Lord
  • GOD; Go ye,
  • serve ye every one his idols, and hereafter [also], if ye will
  • not hearken
  • unto me: but pollute ye my holy name no more with your gifts,
  • and with your
  • idols.
  • EZE-20:40 For in mine holy mountain, in the mountain of the
  • height of Israel,
  • saith the Lord GOD, there shall all the house of Israel, all of
  • them in the
  • land, serve me: there will I accept them, and there will I
  • require your
  • offerings, and the firstfruits of your oblations, with all your
  • holy things.
  • EZE-20:41 I will accept you with your sweet savour, when I
  • bring you out from
  • the people, and gather you out of the countries wherein ye have
  • been
  • scattered; and I will be sanctified in you before the heathen.
  • EZE-20:42 And ye shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I shall
  • bring you into
  • the land of Israel, into the country [for] the which I lifted up
  • mine hand to
  • give it to your fathers.
  • EZE-20:43 And there shall ye remember your ways, and all your
  • doings, wherein
  • ye have been defiled; and ye shall loathe yourselves in your own
  • sight for all
  • your evils that ye have committed.
  • EZE-20:44 And ye shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I have
  • wrought with
  • you for my name's sake, not according to your wicked ways, nor
  • according to
  • your corrupt doings, O ye house of Israel, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-20:45 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-20:46 Son of man, set thy face toward the south, and drop
  • [thy word]
  • toward the south, and prophesy against the forest of the south
  • field;
  • EZE-20:47 And say to the forest of the south, Hear the word of
  • the LORD; Thus
  • saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will kindle a fire in thee, and it
  • shall devour
  • every green tree in thee, and every dry tree: the flaming flame
  • shall not be
  • quenched, and all faces from the south to the north shall be
  • burned therein.
  • EZE-20:48 And all flesh shall see that I the LORD have kindled
  • it: it shall
  • not be quenched.
  • EZE-20:49 Then said I, Ah Lord GOD! they say of me, Doth he not
  • speak
  • parables?
  • EZE-21:1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-21:2 Son of man, set thy face toward Jerusalem, and drop
  • [thy word]
  • toward the holy places, and prophesy against the land of Israel,
  • EZE-21:3 And say to the land of Israel, Thus saith the LORD;
  • Behold, I [am]
  • against thee, and will draw forth my sword out of his sheath,
  • and will cut off
  • from thee the righteous and the wicked.
  • EZE-21:4 Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the
  • righteous and the
  • wicked, therefore shall my sword go forth out of his sheath
  • against all flesh
  • from the south to the north:
  • EZE-21:5 That all flesh may know that I the LORD have drawn
  • forth my sword
  • out of his sheath: it shall not return any more.
  • EZE-21:6 Sigh therefore, thou son of man, with the breaking of
  • [thy] loins;
  • and with bitterness sigh before their eyes.
  • EZE-21:7 And it shall be, when they say unto thee, Wherefore
  • sighest thou?
  • that thou shalt answer, For the tidings; because it cometh: and
  • every heart
  • shall melt, and all hands shall be feeble, and every spirit
  • shall faint, and
  • all knees shall be weak [as] water: behold, it cometh, and shall
  • be brought to
  • pass, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-21:8 Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-21:9 Son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus saith the LORD;
  • Say, A sword, a
  • sword is sharpened, and also furbished:
  • EZE-21:10 It is sharpened to make a sore slaughter; it is
  • furbished that it
  • may glitter: should we then make mirth? it contemneth the rod of
  • my son, [as]
  • every tree.
  • EZE-21:11 And he hath given it to be furbished, that it may be
  • handled: this
  • sword is sharpened, and it is furbished, to give it into the
  • hand of the
  • slayer.
  • EZE-21:12 Cry and howl, son of man: for it shall be upon my
  • people, it [shall
  • be] upon all the princes of Israel: terrors by reason of the
  • sword shall be
  • upon my people: smite therefore upon [thy] thigh.
  • EZE-21:13 Because [it is] a trial, and what if [the sword]
  • contemn even the
  • rod? it shall be no [more], saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-21:14 Thou therefore, son of man, prophesy, and smite
  • [thine] hands
  • together, and let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword
  • of the slain:
  • it [is] the sword of the great [men that are] slain, which
  • entereth into their
  • privy chambers.
  • EZE-21:15 I have set the point of the sword against all their
  • gates, that
  • [their] heart may faint, and [their] ruins be multiplied: ah!
  • [it is] made
  • bright, [it is] wrapped up for the slaughter.
  • EZE-21:16 Go thee one way or other, [either] on the right hand,
  • [or] on the
  • left, whithersoever thy face [is] set.
  • EZE-21:17 I will also smite mine hands together, and I will
  • cause my fury to
  • rest: I the LORD have said [it].
  • EZE-21:18 The word of the LORD came unto me again, saying,
  • EZE-21:19 Also, thou son of man, appoint thee two ways, that
  • the sword of the
  • king of Babylon may come: both twain shall come forth out of one
  • land: and
  • choose thou a place, choose [it] at the head of the way to the
  • city.
  • EZE-21:20 Appoint a way, that the sword may come to Rabbath of
  • the Ammonites,
  • and to Judah in Jerusalem the defenced.
  • EZE-21:21 For the king of Babylon stood at the parting of the
  • way, at the
  • head of the two ways, to use divination: he made [his] arrows
  • bright, he
  • consulted with images, he looked in the liver.
  • EZE-21:22 At his right hand was the divination for Jerusalem,
  • to appoint
  • captains, to open the mouth in the slaughter, to lift up the
  • voice with
  • shouting, to appoint [battering] rams against the gates, to cast
  • a mount,
  • [and] to build a fort.
  • EZE-21:23 And it shall be unto them as a false divination in
  • their sight, to
  • them that have sworn oaths: but he will call to remembrance the
  • iniquity, that
  • they may be taken.
  • EZE-21:24 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because ye have
  • made your
  • iniquity to be remembered, in that your transgressions are
  • discovered, so that
  • in all your doings your sins do appear; because, [I say], that
  • ye are come to
  • remembrance, ye shall be taken with the hand.
  • EZE-21:25 And thou, profane wicked prince of Israel, whose day
  • is come, when
  • iniquity [shall have] an end,
  • EZE-21:26 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Remove the diadem, and take
  • off the crown:
  • this [shall] not [be] the same: exalt [him that is] low, and
  • abase [him that
  • is] high.
  • EZE-21:27 I will overturn, overturn, overturn, it: and it shall
  • be no [more],
  • until he come whose right it is; and I will give it [him].
  • EZE-21:28 And thou, son of man, prophesy and say, Thus saith
  • the Lord GOD
  • concerning the Ammonites, and concerning their reproach; even
  • say thou, The
  • sword, the sword [is] drawn: for the slaughter [it is] furbished,
  • to consume
  • because of the glittering:
  • EZE-21:29 Whiles they see vanity unto thee, whiles they divine
  • a lie unto
  • thee, to bring thee upon the necks of [them that are] slain, of
  • the wicked,
  • whose day is come, when their iniquity [shall have] an end.
  • EZE-21:30 Shall I cause [it] to return into his sheath? I will
  • judge thee in
  • the place where thou wast created, in the land of thy nativity.
  • EZE-21:31 And I will pour out mine indignation upon thee, I
  • will blow against
  • thee in the fire of my wrath, and deliver thee into the hand of
  • brutish men,
  • [and] skilful to destroy.
  • EZE-21:32 Thou shalt be for fuel to the fire; thy blood shall
  • be in the midst
  • of the land; thou shalt be no [more] remembered: for I the LORD
  • have spoken
  • [it].
  • EZE-22:1 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-22:2 Now, thou son of man, wilt thou judge, wilt thou judge
  • the bloody
  • city? yea, thou shalt show her all her abominations.
  • EZE-22:3 Then say thou, Thus saith the Lord GOD, The city
  • sheddeth blood in
  • the midst of it, that her time may come, and maketh idols
  • against herself to
  • defile herself.
  • EZE-22:4 Thou art become guilty in thy blood that thou hast
  • shed; and hast
  • defiled thyself in thine idols which thou hast made; and thou
  • hast caused thy
  • days to draw near, and art come [even] unto thy years: therefore
  • have I made
  • thee a reproach unto the heathen, and a mocking to all countries.
  • EZE-22:5 [Those that be] near, and [those that be] far from
  • thee, shall mock
  • thee, [which art] infamous [and] much vexed.
  • EZE-22:6 Behold, the princes of Israel, every one were in thee
  • to their power
  • to shed blood.
  • EZE-22:7 In thee have they set light by father and mother: in
  • the midst of
  • thee have they dealt by oppression with the stranger: in thee
  • have they vexed
  • the fatherless and the widow.
  • EZE-22:8 Thou hast despised mine holy things, and hast profaned
  • my sabbaths.
  • EZE-22:9 In thee are men that carry tales to shed blood: and in
  • thee they eat
  • upon the mountains: in the midst of thee they commit lewdness.
  • EZE-22:10 In thee have they discovered their fathers' nakedness:
  • in thee have
  • they humbled her that was set apart for pollution.
  • EZE-22:11 And one hath committed abomination with his
  • neighbour's wife; and
  • another hath lewdly defiled his daughter in law; and another in
  • thee hath
  • humbled his sister, his father's daughter.
  • EZE-22:12 In thee have they taken gifts to shed blood; thou
  • hast taken usury
  • and increase, and thou hast greedily gained of thy neighbours by
  • extortion,
  • and hast forgotten me, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-22:13 Behold, therefore I have smitten mine hand at thy
  • dishonest gain
  • which thou hast made, and at thy blood which hath been in the
  • midst of thee.
  • EZE-22:14 Can thine heart endure, or can thine hands be strong,
  • in the days
  • that I shall deal with thee? I the LORD have spoken [it], and
  • will do [it].
  • EZE-22:15 And I will scatter thee among the heathen, and
  • disperse thee in the
  • countries, and will consume thy filthiness out of thee.
  • EZE-22:16 And thou shalt take thine inheritance in thyself in
  • the sight of
  • the heathen, and thou shalt know that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-22:17 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-22:18 Son of man, the house of Israel is to me become dross:
  • all they
  • [are] brass, and tin, and iron, and lead, in the midst of the
  • furnace; they
  • are [even] the dross of silver.
  • EZE-22:19 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because ye are all
  • become dross,
  • behold, therefore I will gather you into the midst of Jerusalem.
  • EZE-22:20 [As] they gather silver, and brass, and iron, and
  • lead, and tin,
  • into the midst of the furnace, to blow the fire upon it, to melt
  • [it]; so will
  • I gather [you] in mine anger and in my fury, and I will leave
  • [you there], and
  • melt you.
  • EZE-22:21 Yea, I will gather you, and blow upon you in the fire
  • of my wrath,
  • and ye shall be melted in the midst thereof.
  • EZE-22:22 As silver is melted in the midst of the furnace, so
  • shall ye be
  • melted in the midst thereof; and ye shall know that I the LORD
  • have poured out
  • my fury upon you.
  • EZE-22:23 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-22:24 Son of man, say unto her, Thou [art] the land that is
  • not cleansed,
  • nor rained upon in the day of indignation.
  • EZE-22:25 [There is] a conspiracy of her prophets in the midst
  • thereof, like
  • a roaring lion ravening the prey; they have devoured souls; they
  • have taken
  • the treasure and precious things; they have made her many widows
  • in the midst
  • thereof.
  • EZE-22:26 Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned
  • mine holy
  • things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane,
  • neither have
  • they showed [difference] between the unclean and the clean, and
  • have hid their
  • eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.
  • EZE-22:27 Her princes in the midst thereof [are] like wolves
  • ravening the
  • prey, to shed blood, [and] to destroy souls, to get dishonest
  • gain.
  • EZE-22:28 And her prophets have daubed them with untempered
  • [mortar], seeing
  • vanity, and divining lies unto them, saying, Thus saith the Lord
  • GOD, when the
  • LORD hath not spoken.
  • EZE-22:29 The people of the land have used oppression, and
  • exercised robbery,
  • and have vexed the poor and needy: yea, they have oppressed the
  • stranger
  • wrongfully.
  • EZE-22:30 And I sought for a man among them, that should make
  • up the hedge,
  • and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not
  • destroy it: but
  • I found none.
  • EZE-22:31 Therefore have I poured out mine indignation upon
  • them; I have
  • consumed them with the fire of my wrath: their own way have I
  • recompensed upon
  • their heads, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-23:1 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
  • EZE-23:2 Son of man, there were two women, the daughters of one
  • mother:
  • EZE-23:3 And they committed whoredoms in Egypt; they committed
  • whoredoms in
  • their youth: there were their breasts pressed, and there they
  • bruised the
  • teats of their virginity.
  • EZE-23:4 And the names of them [were] Aholah the elder, and
  • Aholibah her
  • sister: and they were mine, and they bare sons and daughters.
  • Thus [were]
  • their names; Samaria [is] Aholah, and Jerusalem Aholibah.
  • EZE-23:5 And Aholah played the harlot when she was mine; and
  • she doted on her
  • lovers, on the Assyrians [her] neighbours,
  • EZE-23:6 [Which were] clothed with blue, captains and rulers,
  • all of them
  • desirable young men, horsemen riding upon horses.
  • EZE-23:7 Thus she committed her whoredoms with them, with all
  • them [that
  • were] the chosen men of Assyria, and with all on whom she doted:
  • with all
  • their idols she defiled herself.
  • EZE-23:8 Neither left she her whoredoms [brought] from Egypt:
  • for in her
  • youth they lay with her, and they bruised the breasts of her
  • virginity, and
  • poured their whoredom upon her.
  • EZE-23:9 Wherefore I have delivered her into the hand of her
  • lovers, into the
  • hand of the Assyrians, upon whom she doted.
  • EZE-23:10 These discovered her nakedness: they took her sons
  • and her
  • daughters, and slew her with the sword: and she became famous
  • among women; for
  • they had executed judgment upon her.
  • EZE-23:11 And when her sister Aholibah saw [this], she was more
  • corrupt in
  • her inordinate love than she, and in her whoredoms more than her
  • sister in
  • [her] whoredoms.
  • EZE-23:12 She doted upon the Assyrians [her] neighbours,
  • captains and rulers
  • clothed most gorgeously, horsemen riding upon horses, all of
  • them desirable
  • young men.
  • EZE-23:13 Then I saw that she was defiled, [that] they [took]
  • both one way,
  • EZE-23:14 And [that] she increased her whoredoms: for when she
  • saw men
  • portrayed upon the wall, the images of the Chaldeans portrayed
  • with vermilion,
  • EZE-23:15 Girded with girdles upon their loins, exceeding in
  • dyed attire upon
  • their heads, all of them princes to look to, after the manner of
  • the
  • Babylonians of Chaldea, the land of their nativity:
  • EZE-23:16 And as soon as she saw them with her eyes, she doted
  • upon them, and
  • sent messengers unto them into Chaldea.
  • EZE-23:17 And the Babylonians came to her into the bed of love,
  • and they
  • defiled her with their whoredom, and she was polluted with them,
  • and her mind
  • was alienated from them.
  • EZE-23:18 So she discovered her whoredoms, and discovered her
  • nakedness: then
  • my mind was alienated from her, like as my mind was alienated
  • from her sister.
  • EZE-23:19 Yet she multiplied her whoredoms, in calling to
  • remembrance the
  • days of her youth, wherein she had played the harlot in the land
  • of Egypt.
  • EZE-23:20 For she doted upon their paramours, whose flesh [is
  • as] the flesh
  • of asses, and whose issue [is like] the issue of horses.
  • EZE-23:21 Thus thou calledst to remembrance the lewdness of thy
  • youth, in
  • bruising thy teats by the Egyptians for the paps of thy youth.
  • EZE-23:22 Therefore, O Aholibah, thus saith the Lord GOD;
  • Behold, I will
  • raise up thy lovers against thee, from whom thy mind is
  • alienated, and I will
  • bring them against thee on every side;
  • EZE-23:23 The Babylonians, and all the Chaldeans, Pekod, and
  • Shoa, and Koa,
  • [and] all the Assyrians with them: all of them desirable young
  • men, captains
  • and rulers, great lords and renowned, all of them riding upon
  • horses.
  • EZE-23:24 And they shall come against thee with chariots,
  • wagons, and wheels,
  • and with an assembly of people, [which] shall set against thee
  • buckler and
  • shield and helmet round about: and I will set judgment before
  • them, and they
  • shall judge thee according to their judgments.
  • EZE-23:25 And I will set my jealousy against thee, and they
  • shall deal
  • furiously with thee: they shall take away thy nose and thine
  • ears; and thy
  • remnant shall fall by the sword: they shall take thy sons and
  • thy daughters;
  • and thy residue shall be devoured by the fire.
  • EZE-23:26 They shall also strip thee out of thy clothes, and
  • take away thy
  • fair jewels.
  • EZE-23:27 Thus will I make thy lewdness to cease from thee, and
  • thy whoredom
  • [brought] from the land of Egypt: so that thou shalt not lift up
  • thine eyes
  • unto them, nor remember Egypt any more.
  • EZE-23:28 For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will deliver
  • thee into the
  • hand [of them] whom thou hatest, into the hand [of them] from
  • whom thy mind is
  • alienated:
  • EZE-23:29 And they shall deal with thee hatefully, and shall
  • take away all
  • thy labour, and shall leave thee naked and bare: and the
  • nakedness of thy
  • whoredoms shall be discovered, both thy lewdness and thy
  • whoredoms.
  • EZE-23:30 I will do these [things] unto thee, because thou hast
  • gone a
  • whoring after the heathen, [and] because thou art polluted with
  • their idols.
  • EZE-23:31 Thou hast walked in the way of thy sister; therefore
  • will I give
  • her cup into thine hand.
  • EZE-23:32 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Thou shalt drink of thy
  • sister's cup deep
  • and large: thou shalt be laughed to scorn and had in derision;
  • it containeth
  • much.
  • EZE-23:33 Thou shalt be filled with drunkenness and sorrow,
  • with the cup of
  • astonishment and desolation, with the cup of thy sister Samaria.
  • EZE-23:34 Thou shalt even drink it and suck [it] out, and thou
  • shalt break
  • the sherds thereof, and pluck off thine own breasts: for I have
  • spoken [it],
  • saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-23:35 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast
  • forgotten me,
  • and cast me behind thy back, therefore bear thou also thy
  • lewdness and thy
  • whoredoms.
  • EZE-23:36 The LORD said moreover unto me; Son of man, wilt thou
  • judge Aholah
  • and Aholibah? yea, declare unto them their abominations;
  • EZE-23:37 That they have committed adultery, and blood [is] in
  • their hands,
  • and with their idols have they committed adultery, and have also
  • caused their
  • sons, whom they bare unto me, to pass for them through [the
  • fire], to devour
  • [them].
  • EZE-23:38 Moreover this they have done unto me: they have
  • defiled my
  • sanctuary in the same day, and have profaned my sabbaths.
  • EZE-23:39 For when they had slain their children to their idols,
  • then they
  • came the same day into my sanctuary to profane it; and, lo, thus
  • have they
  • done in the midst of mine house.
  • EZE-23:40 And furthermore, that ye have sent for men to come
  • from far, unto
  • whom a messenger [was] sent; and, lo, they came: for whom thou
  • didst wash
  • thyself, paintedst thy eyes, and deckedst thyself with ornaments,
  • EZE-23:41 And satest upon a stately bed, and a table prepared
  • before it,
  • whereupon thou hast set mine incense and mine oil.
  • EZE-23:42 And a voice of a multitude being at ease [was] with
  • her: and with
  • the men of the common sort [were] brought Sabeans from the
  • wilderness, which
  • put bracelets upon their hands, and beautiful crowns upon their
  • heads.
  • EZE-23:43 Then said I unto [her that was] old in adulteries,
  • Will they now
  • commit whoredoms with her, and she [with them]?
  • EZE-23:44 Yet they went in unto her, as they go in unto a woman
  • that playeth
  • the harlot: so went they in unto Aholah and unto Aholibah, the
  • lewd women.
  • EZE-23:45 And the righteous men, they shall judge them after
  • the manner of
  • adulteresses, and after the manner of women that shed blood;
  • because they
  • [are] adulteresses, and blood [is] in their hands.
  • EZE-23:46 For thus saith the Lord GOD; I will bring up a
  • company upon them,
  • and will give them to be removed and spoiled.
  • EZE-23:47 And the company shall stone them with stones, and
  • dispatch them
  • with their swords; they shall slay their sons and their
  • daughters, and burn up
  • their houses with fire.
  • EZE-23:48 Thus will I cause lewdness to cease out of the land,
  • that all women
  • may be taught not to do after your lewdness.
  • EZE-23:49 And they shall recompense your lewdness upon you, and
  • ye shall bear
  • the sins of your idols: and ye shall know that I [am] the Lord
  • GOD.
  • EZE-24:1 Again in the ninth year, in the tenth month, in the
  • tenth [day] of
  • the month, the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-24:2 Son of man, write thee the name of the day, [even] of
  • this same day:
  • the king of Babylon set himself against Jerusalem this same day.
  • EZE-24:3 And utter a parable unto the rebellious house, and say
  • unto them,
  • Thus saith the Lord GOD; Set on a pot, set [it] on, and also
  • pour water into
  • it:
  • EZE-24:4 Gather the pieces thereof into it, [even] every good
  • piece, the
  • thigh, and the shoulder; fill [it] with the choice bones.
  • EZE-24:5 Take the choice of the flock, and burn also the bones
  • under it,
  • [and] make it boil well, and let them seethe the bones of it
  • therein.
  • EZE-24:6 Wherefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe to the bloody
  • city, to the
  • pot whose scum [is] therein, and whose scum is not gone out of
  • it! bring it
  • out piece by piece; let no lot fall upon it.
  • EZE-24:7 For her blood is in the midst of her; she set it upon
  • the top of a
  • rock; she poured it not upon the ground, to cover it with dust;
  • EZE-24:8 That it might cause fury to come up to take vengeance;
  • I have set
  • her blood upon the top of a rock, that it should not be covered.
  • EZE-24:9 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe to the bloody
  • city! I will
  • even make the pile for fire great.
  • EZE-24:10 Heap on wood, kindle the fire, consume the flesh, and
  • spice it
  • well, and let the bones be burned.
  • EZE-24:11 Then set it empty upon the coals thereof, that the
  • brass of it may
  • be hot, and may burn, and [that] the filthiness of it may be
  • molten in it,
  • [that] the scum of it may be consumed.
  • EZE-24:12 She hath wearied [herself] with lies, and her great
  • scum went not
  • forth out of her: her scum [shall be] in the fire.
  • EZE-24:13 In thy filthiness [is] lewdness: because I have
  • purged thee, and
  • thou wast not purged, thou shalt not be purged from thy
  • filthiness any more,
  • till I have caused my fury to rest upon thee.
  • EZE-24:14 I the LORD have spoken [it]: it shall come to pass,
  • and I will do
  • [it]; I will not go back, neither will I spare, neither will I
  • repent;
  • according to thy ways, and according to thy doings, shall they
  • judge thee,
  • saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-24:15 Also the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-24:16 Son of man, behold, I take away from thee the desire
  • of thine eyes
  • with a stroke: yet neither shalt thou mourn nor weep, neither
  • shall thy tears
  • run down.
  • EZE-24:17 Forbear to cry, make no mourning for the dead, bind
  • the tire of
  • thine head upon thee, and put on thy shoes upon thy feet, and
  • cover not [thy]
  • lips, and eat not the bread of men.
  • EZE-24:18 So I spake unto the people in the morning: and at
  • even my wife
  • died; and I did in the morning as I was commanded.
  • EZE-24:19 And the people said unto me, Wilt thou not tell us
  • what these
  • [things are] to us, that thou doest [so]?
  • EZE-24:20 Then I answered them, The word of the LORD came unto
  • me, saying,
  • EZE-24:21 Speak unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord
  • GOD; Behold, I
  • will profane my sanctuary, the excellency of your strength, the
  • desire of your
  • eyes, and that which your soul pitieth; and your sons and your
  • daughters whom
  • ye have left shall fall by the sword.
  • EZE-24:22 And ye shall do as I have done: ye shall not cover
  • [your] lips, nor
  • eat the bread of men.
  • EZE-24:23 And your tires [shall be] upon your heads, and your
  • shoes upon your
  • feet: ye shall not mourn nor weep; but ye shall pine away for
  • your iniquities,
  • and mourn one toward another.
  • EZE-24:24 Thus Ezekiel is unto you a sign: according to all
  • that he hath done
  • shall ye do: and when this cometh, ye shall know that I [am] the
  • Lord GOD.
  • EZE-24:25 Also, thou son of man, [shall it] not [be] in the day
  • when I take
  • from them their strength, the joy of their glory, the desire of
  • their eyes,
  • and that whereupon they set their minds, their sons and their
  • daughters,
  • EZE-24:26 [That] he that escapeth in that day shall come unto
  • thee, to cause
  • [thee] to hear [it] with [thine] ears?
  • EZE-24:27 In that day shall thy mouth be opened to him which is
  • escaped, and
  • thou shalt speak, and be no more dumb: and thou shalt be a sign
  • unto them; and
  • they shall know that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-25:1 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
  • EZE-25:2 Son of man, set thy face against the Ammonites, and
  • prophesy against
  • them;
  • EZE-25:3 And say unto the Ammonites, Hear the word of the Lord
  • GOD; Thus
  • saith the Lord GOD; Because thou saidst, Aha, against my
  • sanctuary, when it
  • was profaned; and against the land of Israel, when it was
  • desolate; and
  • against the house of Judah, when they went into captivity;
  • EZE-25:4 Behold, therefore I will deliver thee to the men of
  • the east for a
  • possession, and they shall set their palaces in thee, and make
  • their dwellings
  • in thee: they shall eat thy fruit, and they shall drink thy milk.
  • EZE-25:5 And I will make Rabbah a stable for camels, and the
  • Ammonites a
  • couchingplace for flocks: and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-25:6 For thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast clapped
  • [thine]
  • hands, and stamped with the feet, and rejoiced in heart with all
  • thy despite
  • against the land of Israel;
  • EZE-25:7 Behold, therefore I will stretch out mine hand upon
  • thee, and will
  • deliver thee for a spoil to the heathen; and I will cut thee off
  • from the
  • people, and I will cause thee to perish out of the countries: I
  • will destroy
  • thee; and thou shalt know that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-25:8 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because that Moab and Seir do
  • say, Behold,
  • the house of Judah [is] like unto all the heathen;
  • EZE-25:9 Therefore, behold, I will open the side of Moab from
  • the cities,
  • from his cities [which are] on his frontiers, the glory of the
  • country,
  • Bethjeshimoth, Baalmeon, and Kiriathaim,
  • EZE-25:10 Unto the men of the east with the Ammonites, and will
  • give them in
  • possession, that the Ammonites may not be remembered among the
  • nations.
  • EZE-25:11 And I will execute judgments upon Moab; and they
  • shall know that I
  • [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-25:12 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because that Edom hath dealt
  • against the
  • house of Judah by taking vengeance, and hath greatly offended,
  • and revenged
  • himself upon them;
  • EZE-25:13 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; I will also
  • stretch out mine
  • hand upon Edom, and will cut off man and beast from it; and I
  • will make it
  • desolate from Teman; and they of Dedan shall fall by the sword.
  • EZE-25:14 And I will lay my vengeance upon Edom by the hand of
  • my people
  • Israel: and they shall do in Edom according to mine anger and
  • according to my
  • fury; and they shall know my vengeance, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-25:15 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because the Philistines have
  • dealt by
  • revenge, and have taken vengeance with a despiteful heart, to
  • destroy [it] for
  • the old hatred;
  • EZE-25:16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will
  • stretch out mine
  • hand upon the Philistines, and I will cut off the Cherethims,
  • and destroy the
  • remnant of the sea coast.
  • EZE-25:17 And I will execute great vengeance upon them with
  • furious rebukes;
  • and they shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I shall lay my
  • vengeance upon
  • them.
  • EZE-26:1 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first
  • [day] of the
  • month, [that] the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-26:2 Son of man, because that Tyrus hath said against
  • Jerusalem, Aha, she
  • is broken [that was] the gates of the people: she is turned unto
  • me: I shall
  • be replenished, [now] she is laid waste:
  • EZE-26:3 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I [am]
  • against thee, O
  • Tyrus, and will cause many nations to come up against thee, as
  • the sea causeth
  • his waves to come up.
  • EZE-26:4 And they shall destroy the walls of Tyrus, and break
  • down her
  • towers: I will also scrape her dust from her, and make her like
  • the top of a
  • rock.
  • EZE-26:5 It shall be [a place for] the spreading of nets in the
  • midst of the
  • sea: for I have spoken [it], saith the Lord GOD: and it shall
  • become a spoil
  • to the nations.
  • EZE-26:6 And her daughters which [are] in the field shall be
  • slain by the
  • sword; and they shall know that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-26:7 For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will bring upon
  • Tyrus
  • Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, a king of kings, from the north,
  • with horses,
  • and with chariots, and with horsemen, and companies, and much
  • people.
  • EZE-26:8 He shall slay with the sword thy daughters in the
  • field: and he
  • shall make a fort against thee, and cast a mount against thee,
  • and lift up the
  • buckler against thee.
  • EZE-26:9 And he shall set engines of war against thy walls, and
  • with his axes
  • he shall break down thy towers.
  • EZE-26:10 By reason of the abundance of his horses their dust
  • shall cover
  • thee: thy walls shall shake at the noise of the horsemen, and of
  • the wheels,
  • and of the chariots, when he shall enter into thy gates, as men
  • enter into a
  • city wherein is made a breach.
  • EZE-26:11 With the hoofs of his horses shall he tread down all
  • thy streets:
  • he shall slay thy people by the sword, and thy strong garrisons
  • shall go down
  • to the ground.
  • EZE-26:12 And they shall make a spoil of thy riches, and make a
  • prey of thy
  • merchandise: and they shall break down thy walls, and destroy
  • thy pleasant
  • houses: and they shall lay thy stones and thy timber and thy
  • dust in the midst
  • of the water.
  • EZE-26:13 And I will cause the noise of thy songs to cease; and
  • the sound of
  • thy harps shall be no more heard.
  • EZE-26:14 And I will make thee like the top of a rock: thou
  • shalt be [a
  • place] to spread nets upon; thou shalt be built no more: for I
  • the LORD have
  • spoken [it], saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-26:15 Thus saith the Lord GOD to Tyrus; Shall not the isles
  • shake at the
  • sound of thy fall, when the wounded cry, when the slaughter is
  • made in the
  • midst of thee?
  • EZE-26:16 Then all the princes of the sea shall come down from
  • their thrones,
  • and lay away their robes, and put off their broidered garments:
  • they shall
  • clothe themselves with trembling; they shall sit upon the ground,
  • and shall
  • tremble at [every] moment, and be astonished at thee.
  • EZE-26:17 And they shall take up a lamentation for thee, and
  • say to thee, How
  • art thou destroyed, [that wast] inhabited of seafaring men, the
  • renowned city,
  • which wast strong in the sea, she and her inhabitants, which
  • cause their
  • terror [to be] on all that haunt it!
  • EZE-26:18 Now shall the isles tremble in the day of thy fall;
  • yea, the isles
  • that [are] in the sea shall be troubled at thy departure.
  • EZE-26:19 For thus saith the Lord GOD; When I shall make thee a
  • desolate
  • city, like the cities that are not inhabited; when I shall bring
  • up the deep
  • upon thee, and great waters shall cover thee;
  • EZE-26:20 When I shall bring thee down with them that descend
  • into the pit,
  • with the people of old time, and shall set thee in the low parts
  • of the earth,
  • in places desolate of old, with them that go down to the pit,
  • that thou be not
  • inhabited; and I shall set glory in the land of the living;
  • EZE-26:21 I will make thee a terror, and thou [shalt be] no
  • [more]: though
  • thou be sought for, yet shalt thou never be found again, saith
  • the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-27:1 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
  • EZE-27:2 Now, thou son of man, take up a lamentation for Tyrus;
  • EZE-27:3 And say unto Tyrus, O thou that art situate at the
  • entry of the sea,
  • [which art] a merchant of the people for many isles, Thus saith
  • the Lord GOD;
  • O Tyrus, thou hast said, I [am] of perfect beauty.
  • EZE-27:4 Thy borders [are] in the midst of the seas, thy
  • builders have
  • perfected thy beauty.
  • EZE-27:5 They have made all thy [ship] boards of fir trees of
  • Senir: they
  • have taken cedars from Lebanon to make masts for thee.
  • EZE-27:6 [Of] the oaks of Bashan have they made thine oars; the
  • company of
  • the Ashurites have made thy benches [of] ivory, [brought] out of
  • the isles of
  • Chittim.
  • EZE-27:7 Fine linen with broidered work from Egypt was that
  • which thou
  • spreadest forth to be thy sail; blue and purple from the isles
  • of Elishah was
  • that which covered thee.
  • EZE-27:8 The inhabitants of Zidon and Arvad were thy mariners:
  • thy wise
  • [men], O Tyrus, [that] were in thee, were thy pilots.
  • EZE-27:9 The ancients of Gebal and the wise [men] thereof were
  • in thee thy
  • calkers: all the ships of the sea with their mariners were in
  • thee to occupy
  • thy merchandise.
  • EZE-27:10 They of Persia and of Lud and of Phut were in thine
  • army, thy men
  • of war: they hanged the shield and helmet in thee; they set
  • forth thy
  • comeliness.
  • EZE-27:11 The men of Arvad with thine army [were] upon thy
  • walls round about,
  • and the Gammadims were in thy towers: they hanged their shields
  • upon thy walls
  • round about; they have made thy beauty perfect.
  • EZE-27:12 Tarshish [was] thy merchant by reason of the
  • multitude of all [kind
  • of] riches; with silver, iron, tin, and lead, they traded in thy
  • fairs.
  • EZE-27:13 Javan, Tubal, and Meshech, they [were] thy merchants:
  • they traded
  • the persons of men and vessels of brass in thy market.
  • EZE-27:14 They of the house of Togarmah traded in thy fairs
  • with horses and
  • horsemen and mules.
  • EZE-27:15 The men of Dedan [were] thy merchants; many isles
  • [were] the
  • merchandise of thine hand: they brought thee [for] a present
  • horns of ivory
  • and ebony.
  • EZE-27:16 Syria [was] thy merchant by reason of the multitude
  • of the wares of
  • thy making: they occupied in thy fairs with emeralds, purple,
  • and broidered
  • work, and fine linen, and coral, and agate.
  • EZE-27:17 Judah, and the land of Israel, they [were] thy
  • merchants: they
  • traded in thy market wheat of Minnith, and Pannag, and honey,
  • and oil, and
  • balm.
  • EZE-27:18 Damascus [was] thy merchant in the multitude of the
  • wares of thy
  • making, for the multitude of all riches; in the wine of Helbon,
  • and white
  • wool.
  • EZE-27:19 Dan also and Javan going to and fro occupied in thy
  • fairs: bright
  • iron, cassia, and calamus, were in thy market.
  • EZE-27:20 Dedan [was] thy merchant in precious clothes for
  • chariots.
  • EZE-27:21 Arabia, and all the princes of Kedar, they occupied
  • with thee in
  • lambs, and rams, and goats: in these [were they] thy merchants.
  • EZE-27:22 The merchants of Sheba and Raamah, they [were] thy
  • merchants: they
  • occupied in thy fairs with chief of all spices, and with all
  • precious stones,
  • and gold.
  • EZE-27:23 Haran, and Canneh, and Eden, the merchants of Sheba,
  • Asshur, [and]
  • Chilmad, [were] thy merchants.
  • EZE-27:24 These [were] thy merchants in all sorts [of things],
  • in blue
  • clothes, and broidered work, and in chests of rich apparel,
  • bound with cords,
  • and made of cedar, among thy merchandise.
  • EZE-27:25 The ships of Tarshish did sing of thee in thy market:
  • and thou wast
  • replenished, and made very glorious in the midst of the seas.
  • EZE-27:26 Thy rowers have brought thee into great waters: the
  • east wind hath
  • broken thee in the midst of the seas.
  • EZE-27:27 Thy riches, and thy fairs, thy merchandise, thy
  • mariners, and thy
  • pilots, thy calkers, and the occupiers of thy merchandise, and
  • all thy men of
  • war, that [are] in thee, and in all thy company which [is] in
  • the midst of
  • thee, shall fall into the midst of the seas in the day of thy
  • ruin.
  • EZE-27:28 The suburbs shall shake at the sound of the cry of
  • thy pilots.
  • EZE-27:29 And all that handle the oar, the mariners, [and] all
  • the pilots of
  • the sea, shall come down from their ships, they shall stand upon
  • the land;
  • EZE-27:30 And shall cause their voice to be heard against thee,
  • and shall cry
  • bitterly, and shall cast up dust upon their heads, they shall
  • wallow
  • themselves in the ashes:
  • EZE-27:31 And they shall make themselves utterly bald for thee,
  • and gird them
  • with sackcloth, and they shall weep for thee with bitterness of
  • heart [and]
  • bitter wailing.
  • EZE-27:32 And in their wailing they shall take up a lamentation
  • for thee, and
  • lament over thee, [saying], What [city is] like Tyrus, like the
  • destroyed in
  • the midst of the sea?
  • EZE-27:33 When thy wares went forth out of the seas, thou
  • filledst many
  • people; thou didst enrich the kings of the earth with the
  • multitude of thy
  • riches and of thy merchandise.
  • EZE-27:34 In the time [when] thou shalt be broken by the seas
  • in the depths
  • of the waters thy merchandise and all thy company in the midst
  • of thee shall
  • fall.
  • EZE-27:35 All the inhabitants of the isles shall be astonished
  • at thee, and
  • their kings shall be sore afraid, they shall be troubled in
  • [their]
  • countenance.
  • EZE-27:36 The merchants among the people shall hiss at thee;
  • thou shalt be a
  • terror, and never [shalt be] any more.
  • EZE-28:1 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
  • EZE-28:2 Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith
  • the Lord GOD;
  • Because thine heart [is] lifted up, and thou hast said, I [am] a
  • God, I sit
  • [in] the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou [art] a
  • man, and not
  • God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God:
  • EZE-28:3 Behold, thou [art] wiser than Daniel; there is no
  • secret that they
  • can hide from thee:
  • EZE-28:4 With thy wisdom and with thine understanding thou hast
  • gotten thee
  • riches, and hast gotten gold and silver into thy treasures:
  • EZE-28:5 By thy great wisdom [and] by thy traffic hast thou
  • increased thy
  • riches, and thine heart is lifted up because of thy riches:
  • EZE-28:6 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast
  • set thine heart
  • as the heart of God;
  • EZE-28:7 Behold, therefore I will bring strangers upon thee,
  • the terrible of
  • the nations: and they shall draw their swords against the beauty
  • of thy
  • wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness.
  • EZE-28:8 They shall bring thee down to the pit, and thou shalt
  • die the deaths
  • of [them that are] slain in the midst of the seas.
  • EZE-28:9 Wilt thou yet say before him that slayeth thee, I [am]
  • God? but thou
  • [shalt be] a man, and no God, in the hand of him that slayeth
  • thee.
  • EZE-28:10 Thou shalt die the deaths of the uncircumcised by the
  • hand of
  • strangers: for I have spoken [it], saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-28:11 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-28:12 Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of
  • Tyrus, and say
  • unto him, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Thou sealest up the sum, full
  • of wisdom,
  • and perfect in beauty.
  • EZE-28:13 Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every
  • precious stone
  • [was] thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the
  • beryl, the onyx,
  • and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle,
  • and gold: the
  • workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee
  • in the day
  • that thou wast created.
  • EZE-28:14 Thou [art] the anointed cherub that covereth; and I
  • have set thee
  • [so]: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked
  • up and down in
  • the midst of the stones of fire.
  • EZE-28:15 Thou [wast] perfect in thy ways from the day that
  • thou wast
  • created, till iniquity was found in thee.
  • EZE-28:16 By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled
  • the midst of
  • thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast
  • thee as
  • profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O
  • covering
  • cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.
  • EZE-28:17 Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou
  • hast
  • corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast
  • thee to the
  • ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.
  • EZE-28:18 Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of
  • thine
  • iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffic; therefore will I
  • bring forth a
  • fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will
  • bring thee to
  • ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.
  • EZE-28:19 All they that know thee among the people shall be
  • astonished at
  • thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never [shalt] thou [be] any
  • more.
  • EZE-28:20 Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-28:21 Son of man, set thy face against Zidon, and prophesy
  • against it,
  • EZE-28:22 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I [am]
  • against thee, O
  • Zidon; and I will be glorified in the midst of thee: and they
  • shall know that
  • I [am] the LORD, when I shall have executed judgments in her,
  • and shall be
  • sanctified in her.
  • EZE-28:23 For I will send into her pestilence, and blood into
  • her streets;
  • and the wounded shall be judged in the midst of her by the sword
  • upon her on
  • every side; and they shall know that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-28:24 And there shall be no more a pricking brier unto the
  • house of
  • Israel, nor [any] grieving thorn of all [that are] round about
  • them, that
  • despised them; and they shall know that I [am] the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-28:25 Thus saith the Lord GOD; When I shall have gathered
  • the house of
  • Israel from the people among whom they are scattered, and shall
  • be sanctified
  • in them in the sight of the heathen, then shall they dwell in
  • their land that
  • I have given to my servant Jacob.
  • EZE-28:26 And they shall dwell safely therein, and shall build
  • houses, and
  • plant vineyards; yea, they shall dwell with confidence, when I
  • have executed
  • judgments upon all those that despise them round about them; and
  • they shall
  • know that I [am] the LORD their God.
  • EZE-29:1 In the tenth year, in the tenth [month], in the
  • twelfth [day] of the
  • month, the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-29:2 Son of man, set thy face against Pharaoh king of Egypt,
  • and prophesy
  • against him, and against all Egypt:
  • EZE-29:3 Speak, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I
  • [am] against
  • thee, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great dragon that lieth in the
  • midst of his
  • rivers, which hath said, My river [is] mine own, and I have made
  • [it] for
  • myself.
  • EZE-29:4 But I will put hooks in thy jaws, and I will cause the
  • fish of thy
  • rivers to stick unto thy scales, and I will bring thee up out of
  • the midst of
  • thy rivers, and all the fish of thy rivers shall stick unto thy
  • scales.
  • EZE-29:5 And I will leave thee [thrown] into the wilderness,
  • thee and all the
  • fish of thy rivers: thou shalt fall upon the open fields; thou
  • shalt not be
  • brought together, nor gathered: I have given thee for meat to
  • the beasts of
  • the field and to the fowls of the heaven.
  • EZE-29:6 And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I
  • [am] the LORD,
  • because they have been a staff of reed to the house of Israel.
  • EZE-29:7 When they took hold of thee by thy hand, thou didst
  • break, and rend
  • all their shoulder: and when they leaned upon thee, thou brakest,
  • and madest
  • all their loins to be at a stand.
  • EZE-29:8 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will
  • bring a sword upon
  • thee, and cut off man and beast out of thee.
  • EZE-29:9 And the land of Egypt shall be desolate and waste; and
  • they shall
  • know that I [am] the LORD: because he hath said, The river [is]
  • mine, and I
  • have made [it].
  • EZE-29:10 Behold, therefore I [am] against thee, and against
  • thy rivers, and
  • I will make the land of Egypt utterly waste [and] desolate, from
  • the tower of
  • Syene even unto the border of Ethiopia.
  • EZE-29:11 No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of
  • beast shall pass
  • through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty years.
  • EZE-29:12 And I will make the land of Egypt desolate in the
  • midst of the
  • countries [that are] desolate, and her cities among the cities
  • [that are] laid
  • waste shall be desolate forty years: and I will scatter the
  • Egyptians among
  • the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
  • EZE-29:13 Yet thus saith the Lord GOD; At the end of forty
  • years will I
  • gather the Egyptians from the people whither they were scattered:
  • EZE-29:14 And I will bring again the captivity of Egypt, and
  • will cause them
  • to return [into] the land of Pathros, into the land of their
  • habitation; and
  • they shall be there a base kingdom.
  • EZE-29:15 It shall be the basest of the kingdoms; neither shall
  • it exalt
  • itself any more above the nations: for I will diminish them,
  • that they shall
  • no more rule over the nations.
  • EZE-29:16 And it shall be no more the confidence of the house
  • of Israel,
  • which bringeth [their] iniquity to remembrance, when they shall
  • look after
  • them: but they shall know that I [am] the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-29:17 And it came to pass in the seven and twentieth year,
  • in the first
  • [month], in the first [day] of the month, the word of the LORD
  • came unto me,
  • saying,
  • EZE-29:18 Son of man, Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon caused his
  • army to serve
  • a great service against Tyrus: every head [was] made bald, and
  • every shoulder
  • [was] peeled: yet had he no wages, nor his army, for Tyrus, for
  • the service
  • that he had served against it:
  • EZE-29:19 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will
  • give the land of
  • Egypt unto Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon; and he shall take her
  • multitude,
  • and take her spoil, and take her prey; and it shall be the wages
  • for his army.
  • EZE-29:20 I have given him the land of Egypt [for] his labour
  • wherewith he
  • served against it, because they wrought for me, saith the Lord
  • GOD.
  • EZE-29:21 In that day will I cause the horn of the house of
  • Israel to bud
  • forth, and I will give thee the opening of the mouth in the
  • midst of them; and
  • they shall know that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-30:1 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
  • EZE-30:2 Son of man, prophesy and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD;
  • Howl ye, Woe
  • worth the day!
  • EZE-30:3 For the day [is] near, even the day of the LORD [is]
  • near, a cloudy
  • day; it shall be the time of the heathen.
  • EZE-30:4 And the sword shall come upon Egypt, and great pain
  • shall be in
  • Ethiopia, when the slain shall fall in Egypt, and they shall
  • take away her
  • multitude, and her foundations shall be broken down.
  • EZE-30:5 Ethiopia, and Libya, and Lydia, and all the mingled
  • people, and
  • Chub, and the men of the land that is in league, shall fall with
  • them by the
  • sword.
  • EZE-30:6 Thus saith the LORD; They also that uphold Egypt shall
  • fall; and the
  • pride of her power shall come down: from the tower of Syene
  • shall they fall in
  • it by the sword, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-30:7 And they shall be desolate in the midst of the
  • countries [that are]
  • desolate, and her cities shall be in the midst of the cities
  • [that are]
  • wasted.
  • EZE-30:8 And they shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I have
  • set a fire in
  • Egypt, and [when] all her helpers shall be destroyed.
  • EZE-30:9 In that day shall messengers go forth from me in ships
  • to make the
  • careless Ethiopians afraid, and great pain shall come upon them,
  • as in the day
  • of Egypt: for, lo, it cometh.
  • EZE-30:10 Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will also make the
  • multitude of Egypt to
  • cease by the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon.
  • EZE-30:11 He and his people with him, the terrible of the
  • nations, shall be
  • brought to destroy the land: and they shall draw their swords
  • against Egypt,
  • and fill the land with the slain.
  • EZE-30:12 And I will make the rivers dry, and sell the land
  • into the hand of
  • the wicked: and I will make the land waste, and all that is
  • therein, by the
  • hand of strangers: I the LORD have spoken [it].
  • EZE-30:13 Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will also destroy the
  • idols, and I will
  • cause [their] images to cease out of Noph; and there shall be no
  • more a prince
  • of the land of Egypt: and I will put a fear in the land of Egypt.
  • EZE-30:14 And I will make Pathros desolate, and will set fire
  • in Zoan, and
  • will execute judgments in No.
  • EZE-30:15 And I will pour my fury upon Sin, the strength of
  • Egypt; and I will
  • cut off the multitude of No.
  • EZE-30:16 And I will set fire in Egypt: Sin shall have great
  • pain, and No
  • shall be rent asunder, and Noph [shall have] distresses daily.
  • EZE-30:17 The young men of Aven and of Pibeseth shall fall by
  • the sword: and
  • these [cities] shall go into captivity.
  • EZE-30:18 At Tehaphnehes also the day shall be darkened, when I
  • shall break
  • there the yokes of Egypt: and the pomp of her strength shall
  • cease in her: as
  • for her, a cloud shall cover her, and her daughters shall go
  • into captivity.
  • EZE-30:19 Thus will I execute judgments in Egypt: and they
  • shall know that I
  • [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-30:20 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the
  • first [month], in
  • the seventh [day] of the month, [that] the word of the LORD came
  • unto me,
  • saying,
  • EZE-30:21 Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of
  • Egypt; and,
  • lo, it shall not be bound up to be healed, to put a roller to
  • bind it, to make
  • it strong to hold the sword.
  • EZE-30:22 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I [am]
  • against Pharaoh
  • king of Egypt, and will break his arms, the strong, and that
  • which was broken;
  • and I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand.
  • EZE-30:23 And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations,
  • and will
  • disperse them through the countries.
  • EZE-30:24 And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon,
  • and put my
  • sword in his hand: but I will break Pharaoh's arms, and he shall
  • groan before
  • him with the groanings of a deadly wounded [man].
  • EZE-30:25 But I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon,
  • and the arms
  • of Pharaoh shall fall down; and they shall know that I [am] the
  • LORD, when I
  • shall put my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he
  • shall stretch
  • it out upon the land of Egypt.
  • EZE-30:26 And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations,
  • and disperse
  • them among the countries; and they shall know that I [am] the
  • LORD.
  • EZE-31:1 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the third
  • [month], in
  • the first [day] of the month, [that] the word of the LORD came
  • unto me,
  • saying,
  • EZE-31:2 Son of man, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, and to
  • his multitude;
  • Whom art thou like in thy greatness?
  • EZE-31:3 Behold, the Assyrian [was] a cedar in Lebanon with
  • fair branches,
  • and with a shadowing shroud, and of an high stature; and his top
  • was among the
  • thick boughs.
  • EZE-31:4 The waters made him great, the deep set him up on high
  • with her
  • rivers running round about his plants, and sent out her little
  • rivers unto all
  • the trees of the field.
  • EZE-31:5 Therefore his height was exalted above all the trees
  • of the field,
  • and his boughs were multiplied, and his branches became long
  • because of the
  • multitude of waters, when he shot forth.
  • EZE-31:6 All the fowls of heaven made their nests in his boughs,
  • and under
  • his branches did all the beasts of the field bring forth their
  • young, and
  • under his shadow dwelt all great nations.
  • EZE-31:7 Thus was he fair in his greatness, in the length of
  • his branches:
  • for his root was by great waters.
  • EZE-31:8 The cedars in the garden of God could not hide him:
  • the fir trees
  • were not like his boughs, and the chestnut trees were not like
  • his branches;
  • nor any tree in the garden of God was like unto him in his
  • beauty.
  • EZE-31:9 I have made him fair by the multitude of his branches:
  • so that all
  • the trees of Eden, that [were] in the garden of God, envied him.
  • EZE-31:10 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast
  • lifted up
  • thyself in height, and he hath shot up his top among the thick
  • boughs, and his
  • heart is lifted up in his height;
  • EZE-31:11 I have therefore delivered him into the hand of the
  • mighty one of
  • the heathen; he shall surely deal with him: I have driven him
  • out for his
  • wickedness.
  • EZE-31:12 And strangers, the terrible of the nations, have cut
  • him off, and
  • have left him: upon the mountains and in all the valleys his
  • branches are
  • fallen, and his boughs are broken by all the rivers of the land;
  • and all the
  • people of the earth are gone down from his shadow, and have left
  • him.
  • EZE-31:13 Upon his ruin shall all the fowls of the heaven
  • remain, and all the
  • beasts of the field shall be upon his branches:
  • EZE-31:14 To the end that none of all the trees by the waters
  • exalt
  • themselves for their height, neither shoot up their top among
  • the thick
  • boughs, neither their trees stand up in their height, all that
  • drink water:
  • for they are all delivered unto death, to the nether parts of
  • the earth, in
  • the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the
  • pit.
  • EZE-31:15 Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day when he went down
  • to the grave
  • I caused a mourning: I covered the deep for him, and I
  • restrained the floods
  • thereof, and the great waters were stayed: and I caused Lebanon
  • to mourn for
  • him, and all the trees of the field fainted for him.
  • EZE-31:16 I made the nations to shake at the sound of his fall,
  • when I cast
  • him down to hell with them that descend into the pit: and all
  • the trees of
  • Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water,
  • shall be comforted
  • in the nether parts of the earth.
  • EZE-31:17 They also went down into hell with him unto [them
  • that be] slain
  • with the sword; and [they that were] his arm, [that] dwelt under
  • his shadow in
  • the midst of the heathen.
  • EZE-31:18 To whom art thou thus like in glory and in greatness
  • among the
  • trees of Eden? yet shalt thou be brought down with the trees of
  • Eden unto the
  • nether parts of the earth: thou shalt lie in the midst of the
  • uncircumcised
  • with [them that be] slain by the sword. This [is] Pharaoh and
  • all his
  • multitude, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-32:1 And it came to pass in the twelfth year, in the
  • twelfth month, in
  • the first [day] of the month, [that] the word of the LORD came
  • unto me,
  • saying,
  • EZE-32:2 Son of man, take up a lamentation for Pharaoh king of
  • Egypt, and say
  • unto him, Thou art like a young lion of the nations, and thou
  • [art] as a whale
  • in the seas: and thou camest forth with thy rivers, and
  • troubledst the waters
  • with thy feet, and fouledst their rivers.
  • EZE-32:3 Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will therefore spread out
  • my net over
  • thee with a company of many people; and they shall bring thee up
  • in my net.
  • EZE-32:4 Then will I leave thee upon the land, I will cast thee
  • forth upon
  • the open field, and will cause all the fowls of the heaven to
  • remain upon
  • thee, and I will fill the beasts of the whole earth with thee.
  • EZE-32:5 And I will lay thy flesh upon the mountains, and fill
  • the valleys
  • with thy height.
  • EZE-32:6 I will also water with thy blood the land wherein thou
  • swimmest,
  • [even] to the mountains; and the rivers shall be full of thee.
  • EZE-32:7 And when I shall put thee out, I will cover the heaven,
  • and make the
  • stars thereof dark; I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the
  • moon shall not
  • give her light.
  • EZE-32:8 All the bright lights of heaven will I make dark over
  • thee, and set
  • darkness upon thy land, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-32:9 I will also vex the hearts of many people, when I
  • shall bring thy
  • destruction among the nations, into the countries which thou
  • hast not known.
  • EZE-32:10 Yea, I will make many people amazed at thee, and
  • their kings shall
  • be horribly afraid for thee, when I shall brandish my sword
  • before them; and
  • they shall tremble at [every] moment, every man for his own life,
  • in the day
  • of thy fall.
  • EZE-32:11 For thus saith the Lord GOD; The sword of the king of
  • Babylon shall
  • come upon thee.
  • EZE-32:12 By the swords of the mighty will I cause thy
  • multitude to fall, the
  • terrible of the nations, all of them: and they shall spoil the
  • pomp of Egypt,
  • and all the multitude thereof shall be destroyed.
  • EZE-32:13 I will destroy also all the beasts thereof from
  • beside the great
  • waters; neither shall the foot of man trouble them any more, nor
  • the hoofs of
  • beasts trouble them.
  • EZE-32:14 Then will I make their waters deep, and cause their
  • rivers to run
  • like oil, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-32:15 When I shall make the land of Egypt desolate, and the
  • country shall
  • be destitute of that whereof it was full, when I shall smite all
  • them that
  • dwell therein, then shall they know that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-32:16 This [is] the lamentation wherewith they shall lament
  • her: the
  • daughters of the nations shall lament her: they shall lament for
  • her, [even]
  • for Egypt, and for all her multitude, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-32:17 It came to pass also in the twelfth year, in the
  • fifteenth [day] of
  • the month, [that] the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-32:18 Son of man, wail for the multitude of Egypt, and cast
  • them down,
  • [even] her, and the daughters of the famous nations, unto the
  • nether parts of
  • the earth, with them that go down into the pit.
  • EZE-32:19 Whom dost thou pass in beauty? go down, and be thou
  • laid with the
  • uncircumcised.
  • EZE-32:20 They shall fall in the midst of [them that are] slain
  • by the sword:
  • she is delivered to the sword: draw her and all her multitudes.
  • EZE-32:21 The strong among the mighty shall speak to him out of
  • the midst of
  • hell with them that help him: they are gone down, they lie
  • uncircumcised,
  • slain by the sword.
  • EZE-32:22 Asshur [is] there and all her company: his graves
  • [are] about him:
  • all of them slain, fallen by the sword:
  • EZE-32:23 Whose graves are set in the sides of the pit, and her
  • company is
  • round about her grave: all of them slain, fallen by the sword,
  • which caused
  • terror in the land of the living.
  • EZE-32:24 There [is] Elam and all her multitude round about her
  • grave, all of
  • them slain, fallen by the sword, which are gone down
  • uncircumcised into the
  • nether parts of the earth, which caused their terror in the land
  • of the
  • living; yet have they borne their shame with them that go down
  • to the pit.
  • EZE-32:25 They have set her a bed in the midst of the slain
  • with all her
  • multitude: her graves [are] round about him: all of them
  • uncircumcised, slain
  • by the sword: though their terror was caused in the land of the
  • living, yet
  • have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit:
  • he is put in
  • the midst of [them that be] slain.
  • EZE-32:26 There [is] Meshech, Tubal, and all her multitude: her
  • graves [are]
  • round about him: all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword,
  • though they
  • caused their terror in the land of the living.
  • EZE-32:27 And they shall not lie with the mighty [that are]
  • fallen of the
  • uncircumcised, which are gone down to hell with their weapons of
  • war: and they
  • have laid their swords under their heads, but their iniquities
  • shall be upon
  • their bones, though [they were] the terror of the mighty in the
  • land of the
  • living.
  • EZE-32:28 Yea, thou shalt be broken in the midst of the
  • uncircumcised, and
  • shalt lie with [them that are] slain with the sword.
  • EZE-32:29 There [is] Edom, her kings, and all her princes,
  • which with their
  • might are laid by [them that were] slain by the sword: they
  • shall lie with the
  • uncircumcised, and with them that go down to the pit.
  • EZE-32:30 There [be] the princes of the north, all of them, and
  • all the
  • Zidonians, which are gone down with the slain; with their terror
  • they are
  • ashamed of their might; and they lie uncircumcised with [them
  • that be] slain
  • by the sword, and bear their shame with them that go down to the
  • pit.
  • EZE-32:31 Pharaoh shall see them, and shall be comforted over
  • all his
  • multitude, [even] Pharaoh and all his army slain by the sword,
  • saith the Lord
  • GOD.
  • EZE-32:32 For I have caused my terror in the land of the living:
  • and he shall
  • be laid in the midst of the uncircumcised with [them that are]
  • slain with the
  • sword, [even] Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-33:1 Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-33:2 Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and
  • say unto them,
  • When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land
  • take a man of
  • their coasts, and set him for their watchman:
  • EZE-33:3 If when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow
  • the trumpet,
  • and warn the people;
  • EZE-33:4 Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and
  • taketh not
  • warning; if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall
  • be upon his own
  • head.
  • EZE-33:5 He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not
  • warning; his blood
  • shall be upon him. But he that taketh warning shall deliver his
  • soul.
  • EZE-33:6 But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not
  • the trumpet,
  • and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take [any]
  • person from
  • among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will
  • I require at
  • the watchman's hand.
  • EZE-33:7 So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto
  • the house of
  • Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn
  • them from me.
  • EZE-33:8 When I say unto the wicked, O wicked [man], thou shalt
  • surely die;
  • if thou dost not speak to warn the wicked from his way, that
  • wicked [man]
  • shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine
  • hand.
  • EZE-33:9 Nevertheless, if thou warn the wicked of his way to
  • turn from it; if
  • he do not turn from his way, he shall die in his iniquity; but
  • thou hast
  • delivered thy soul.
  • EZE-33:10 Therefore, O thou son of man, speak unto the house of
  • Israel; Thus
  • ye speak, saying, If our transgressions and our sins [be] upon
  • us, and we pine
  • away in them, how should we then live?
  • EZE-33:11 Say unto them, [As] I live, saith the Lord GOD, I
  • have no pleasure
  • in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his
  • way and live:
  • turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O
  • house of Israel?
  • EZE-33:12 Therefore, thou son of man, say unto the children of
  • thy people,
  • The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him in the
  • day of his
  • transgression: as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not
  • fall thereby
  • in the day that he turneth from his wickedness; neither shall
  • the righteous be
  • able to live for his [righteousness] in the day that he sinneth.
  • EZE-33:13 When I shall say to the righteous, [that] he shall
  • surely live; if
  • he trust to his own righteousness, and commit iniquity, all his
  • righteousnesses shall not be remembered; but for his iniquity
  • that he hath
  • committed, he shall die for it.
  • EZE-33:14 Again, when I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely
  • die; if he
  • turn from his sin, and do that which is lawful and right;
  • EZE-33:15 [If] the wicked restore the pledge, give again that
  • he had robbed,
  • walk in the statutes of life, without committing iniquity; he
  • shall surely
  • live, he shall not die.
  • EZE-33:16 None of his sins that he hath committed shall be
  • mentioned unto
  • him: he hath done that which is lawful and right; he shall
  • surely live.
  • EZE-33:17 Yet the children of thy people say, The way of the
  • Lord is not
  • equal: but as for them, their way is not equal.
  • EZE-33:18 When the righteous turneth from his righteousness,
  • and committeth
  • iniquity, he shall even die thereby.
  • EZE-33:19 But if the wicked turn from his wickedness, and do
  • that which is
  • lawful and right, he shall live thereby.
  • EZE-33:20 Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equal. O ye
  • house of Israel,
  • I will judge you every one after his ways.
  • EZE-33:21 And it came to pass in the twelfth year of our
  • captivity, in the
  • tenth [month], in the fifth [day] of the month, [that] one that
  • had escaped
  • out of Jerusalem came unto me, saying, The city is smitten.
  • EZE-33:22 Now the hand of the LORD was upon me in the evening,
  • afore he that
  • was escaped came; and had opened my mouth, until he came to me
  • in the morning;
  • and my mouth was opened, and I was no more dumb.
  • EZE-33:23 Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-33:24 Son of man, they that inhabit those wastes of the
  • land of Israel
  • speak, saying, Abraham was one, and he inherited the land: but
  • we [are] many;
  • the land is given us for inheritance.
  • EZE-33:25 Wherefore say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Ye
  • eat with the
  • blood, and lift up your eyes toward your idols, and shed blood:
  • and shall ye
  • possess the land?
  • EZE-33:26 Ye stand upon your sword, ye work abomination, and ye
  • defile every
  • one his neighbour's wife: and shall ye possess the land?
  • EZE-33:27 Say thou thus unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD;
  • [As] I live,
  • surely they that [are] in the wastes shall fall by the sword,
  • and him that
  • [is] in the open field will I give to the beasts to be devoured,
  • and they that
  • [be] in the forts and in the caves shall die of the pestilence.
  • EZE-33:28 For I will lay the land most desolate, and the pomp
  • of her strength
  • shall cease; and the mountains of Israel shall be desolate, that
  • none shall
  • pass through.
  • EZE-33:29 Then shall they know that I [am] the LORD, when I
  • have laid the
  • land most desolate because of all their abominations which they
  • have
  • committed.
  • EZE-33:30 Also, thou son of man, the children of thy people
  • still are talking
  • against thee by the walls and in the doors of the houses, and
  • speak one to
  • another, every one to his brother, saying, Come, I pray you, and
  • hear what is
  • the word that cometh forth from the LORD.
  • EZE-33:31 And they come unto thee as the people cometh, and
  • they sit before
  • thee [as] my people, and they hear thy words, but they will not
  • do them: for
  • with their mouth they show much love, [but] their heart goeth
  • after their
  • covetousness.
  • EZE-33:32 And, lo, thou [art] unto them as a very lovely song
  • of one that
  • hath a pleasant voice, and can play well on an instrument: for
  • they hear thy
  • words, but they do them not.
  • EZE-33:33 And when this cometh to pass, (lo, it will come,)
  • then shall they
  • know that a prophet hath been among them.
  • EZE-34:1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-34:2 Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel,
  • prophesy, and
  • say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD unto the shepherds; Woe
  • [be] to the
  • shepherds of Israel that do feed themselves! should not the
  • shepherds feed the
  • flocks?
  • EZE-34:3 Ye eat the fat, and ye clothe you with the wool, ye
  • kill them that
  • are fed: [but] ye feed not the flock.
  • EZE-34:4 The diseased have ye not strengthened, neither have ye
  • healed that
  • which was sick, neither have ye bound up [that which was] broken,
  • neither have
  • ye brought again that which was driven away, neither have ye
  • sought that which
  • was lost; but with force and with cruelty have ye ruled them.
  • EZE-34:5 And they were scattered, because [there is] no
  • shepherd: and they
  • became meat to all the beasts of the field, when they were
  • scattered.
  • EZE-34:6 My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and upon
  • every high
  • hill: yea, my flock was scattered upon all the face of the earth,
  • and none did
  • search or seek [after them].
  • EZE-34:7 Therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD;
  • EZE-34:8 [As] I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely because my
  • flock became a
  • prey, and my flock became meat to every beast of the field,
  • because [there
  • was] no shepherd, neither did my shepherds search for my flock,
  • but the
  • shepherds fed themselves, and fed not my flock;
  • EZE-34:9 Therefore, O ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD;
  • EZE-34:10 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I [am] against the
  • shepherds; and
  • I will require my flock at their hand, and cause them to cease
  • from feeding
  • the flock; neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more;
  • for I will
  • deliver my flock from their mouth, that they may not be meat for
  • them.
  • EZE-34:11 For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I, [even] I,
  • will both search
  • my sheep, and seek them out.
  • EZE-34:12 As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the day that
  • he is among his
  • sheep [that are] scattered; so will I seek out my sheep, and
  • will deliver them
  • out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy
  • and dark day.
  • EZE-34:13 And I will bring them out from the people, and gather
  • them from the
  • countries, and will bring them to their own land, and feed them
  • upon the
  • mountains of Israel by the rivers, and in all the inhabited
  • places of the
  • country.
  • EZE-34:14 I will feed them in a good pasture, and upon the high
  • mountains of
  • Israel shall their fold be: there shall they lie in a good fold,
  • and [in] a
  • fat pasture shall they feed upon the mountains of Israel.
  • EZE-34:15 I will feed my flock, and I will cause them to lie
  • down, saith the
  • Lord GOD.
  • EZE-34:16 I will seek that which was lost, and bring again that
  • which was
  • driven away, and will bind up [that which was] broken, and will
  • strengthen
  • that which was sick: but I will destroy the fat and the strong;
  • I will feed
  • them with judgment.
  • EZE-34:17 And [as for] you, O my flock, thus saith the Lord GOD;
  • Behold, I
  • judge between cattle and cattle, between the rams and the he
  • goats.
  • EZE-34:18 [Seemeth it] a small thing unto you to have eaten up
  • the good
  • pasture, but ye must tread down with your feet the residue of
  • your pastures?
  • and to have drunk of the deep waters, but ye must foul the
  • residue with your
  • feet?
  • EZE-34:19 And [as for] my flock, they eat that which ye have
  • trodden with
  • your feet; and they drink that which ye have fouled with your
  • feet.
  • EZE-34:20 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD unto them; Behold,
  • I, [even] I,
  • will judge between the fat cattle and between the lean cattle.
  • EZE-34:21 Because ye have thrust with side and with shoulder,
  • and pushed all
  • the diseased with your horns, till ye have scattered them abroad;
  • EZE-34:22 Therefore will I save my flock, and they shall no
  • more be a prey;
  • and I will judge between cattle and cattle.
  • EZE-34:23 And I will set up one shepherd over them, and he
  • shall feed them,
  • [even] my servant David; he shall feed them, and he shall be
  • their shepherd.
  • EZE-34:24 And I the LORD will be their God, and my servant
  • David a prince
  • among them; I the LORD have spoken [it].
  • EZE-34:25 And I will make with them a covenant of peace, and
  • will cause the
  • evil beasts to cease out of the land: and they shall dwell
  • safely in the
  • wilderness, and sleep in the woods.
  • EZE-34:26 And I will make them and the places round about my
  • hill a blessing;
  • and I will cause the shower to come down in his season; there
  • shall be showers
  • of blessing.
  • EZE-34:27 And the tree of the field shall yield her fruit, and
  • the earth
  • shall yield her increase, and they shall be safe in their land,
  • and shall know
  • that I [am] the LORD, when I have broken the bands of their yoke,
  • and
  • delivered them out of the hand of those that served themselves
  • of them.
  • EZE-34:28 And they shall no more be a prey to the heathen,
  • neither shall the
  • beast of the land devour them; but they shall dwell safely, and
  • none shall
  • make [them] afraid.
  • EZE-34:29 And I will raise up for them a plant of renown, and
  • they shall be
  • no more consumed with hunger in the land, neither bear the shame
  • of the
  • heathen any more.
  • EZE-34:30 Thus shall they know that I the LORD their God [am]
  • with them, and
  • [that] they, [even] the house of Israel, [are] my people, saith
  • the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-34:31 And ye my flock, the flock of my pasture, [are] men,
  • [and] I [am]
  • your God, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-35:1 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-35:2 Son of man, set thy face against mount Seir, and
  • prophesy against
  • it,
  • EZE-35:3 And say unto it, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, O
  • mount Seir, I
  • [am] against thee, and I will stretch out mine hand against thee,
  • and I will
  • make thee most desolate.
  • EZE-35:4 I will lay thy cities waste, and thou shalt be
  • desolate, and thou
  • shalt know that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-35:5 Because thou hast had a perpetual hatred, and hast
  • shed [the blood
  • of] the children of Israel by the force of the sword in the time
  • of their
  • calamity, in the time [that their] iniquity [had] an end:
  • EZE-35:6 Therefore, [as] I live, saith the Lord GOD, I will
  • prepare thee unto
  • blood, and blood shall pursue thee: sith thou hast not hated
  • blood, even blood
  • shall pursue thee.
  • EZE-35:7 Thus will I make mount Seir most desolate, and cut off
  • from it him
  • that passeth out and him that returneth.
  • EZE-35:8 And I will fill his mountains with his slain [men]: in
  • thy hills,
  • and in thy valleys, and in all thy rivers, shall they fall that
  • are slain with
  • the sword.
  • EZE-35:9 I will make thee perpetual desolations, and thy cities
  • shall not
  • return: and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-35:10 Because thou hast said, These two nations and these
  • two countries
  • shall be mine, and we will possess it; whereas the LORD was
  • there:
  • EZE-35:11 Therefore, [as] I live, saith the Lord GOD, I will
  • even do
  • according to thine anger, and according to thine envy which thou
  • hast used out
  • of thy hatred against them; and I will make myself known among
  • them, when I
  • have judged thee.
  • EZE-35:12 And thou shalt know that I [am] the LORD, [and that]
  • I have heard
  • all thy blasphemies which thou hast spoken against the mountains
  • of Israel,
  • saying, They are laid desolate, they are given us to consume.
  • EZE-35:13 Thus with your mouth ye have boasted against me, and
  • have
  • multiplied your words against me: I have heard [them].
  • EZE-35:14 Thus saith the Lord GOD; When the whole earth
  • rejoiceth, I will
  • make thee desolate.
  • EZE-35:15 As thou didst rejoice at the inheritance of the house
  • of Israel,
  • because it was desolate, so will I do unto thee: thou shalt be
  • desolate, O
  • mount Seir, and all Idumea, [even] all of it: and they shall
  • know that I [am]
  • the LORD.
  • EZE-36:1 Also, thou son of man, prophesy unto the mountains of
  • Israel, and
  • say, Ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of the LORD:
  • EZE-36:2 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because the enemy hath said
  • against you,
  • Aha, even the ancient high places are ours in possession:
  • EZE-36:3 Therefore prophesy and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD;
  • Because they
  • have made [you] desolate, and swallowed you up on every side,
  • that ye might be
  • a possession unto the residue of the heathen, and ye are taken
  • up in the lips
  • of talkers, and [are] an infamy of the people:
  • EZE-36:4 Therefore, ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of
  • the Lord GOD;
  • Thus saith the Lord GOD to the mountains, and to the hills, to
  • the rivers, and
  • to the valleys, to the desolate wastes, and to the cities that
  • are forsaken,
  • which became a prey and derision to the residue of the heathen
  • that [are]
  • round about;
  • EZE-36:5 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Surely in the fire
  • of my jealousy
  • have I spoken against the residue of the heathen, and against
  • all Idumea,
  • which have appointed my land into their possession with the joy
  • of all [their]
  • heart, with despiteful minds, to cast it out for a prey.
  • EZE-36:6 Prophesy therefore concerning the land of Israel, and
  • say unto the
  • mountains, and to the hills, to the rivers, and to the valleys,
  • Thus saith the
  • Lord GOD; Behold, I have spoken in my jealousy and in my fury,
  • because ye have
  • borne the shame of the heathen:
  • EZE-36:7 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; I have lifted up
  • mine hand,
  • Surely the heathen that [are] about you, they shall bear their
  • shame.
  • EZE-36:8 But ye, O mountains of Israel, ye shall shoot forth
  • your branches,
  • and yield your fruit to my people of Israel; for they are at
  • hand to come.
  • EZE-36:9 For, behold, I [am] for you, and I will turn unto you,
  • and ye shall
  • be tilled and sown:
  • EZE-36:10 And I will multiply men upon you, all the house of
  • Israel, [even]
  • all of it: and the cities shall be inhabited, and the wastes
  • shall be builded:
  • EZE-36:11 And I will multiply upon you man and beast; and they
  • shall increase
  • and bring fruit: and I will settle you after your old estates,
  • and will do
  • better [unto you] than at your beginnings: and ye shall know
  • that I [am] the
  • LORD.
  • EZE-36:12 Yea, I will cause men to walk upon you, [even] my
  • people Israel;
  • and they shall possess thee, and thou shalt be their inheritance,
  • and thou
  • shalt no more henceforth bereave them [of men].
  • EZE-36:13 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because they say unto you,
  • Thou [land]
  • devourest up men, and hast bereaved thy nations;
  • EZE-36:14 Therefore thou shalt devour men no more, neither
  • bereave thy
  • nations any more, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-36:15 Neither will I cause [men] to hear in thee the shame
  • of the heathen
  • any more, neither shalt thou bear the reproach of the people any
  • more, neither
  • shalt thou cause thy nations to fall any more, saith the Lord
  • GOD.
  • EZE-36:16 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-36:17 Son of man, when the house of Israel dwelt in their
  • own land, they
  • defiled it by their own way and by their doings: their way was
  • before me as
  • the uncleanness of a removed woman.
  • EZE-36:18 Wherefore I poured my fury upon them for the blood
  • that they had
  • shed upon the land, and for their idols [wherewith] they had
  • polluted it:
  • EZE-36:19 And I scattered them among the heathen, and they were
  • dispersed
  • through the countries: according to their way and according to
  • their doings I
  • judged them.
  • EZE-36:20 And when they entered unto the heathen, whither they
  • went, they
  • profaned my holy name, when they said to them, These [are] the
  • people of the
  • LORD, and are gone forth out of his land.
  • EZE-36:21 But I had pity for mine holy name, which the house of
  • Israel had
  • profaned among the heathen, whither they went.
  • EZE-36:22 Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith
  • the Lord GOD; I
  • do not [this] for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for mine
  • holy name's
  • sake, which ye have profaned among the heathen, whither ye went.
  • EZE-36:23 And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned
  • among the
  • heathen, which ye have profaned in the midst of them; and the
  • heathen shall
  • know that I [am] the LORD, saith the Lord GOD, when I shall be
  • sanctified in
  • you before their eyes.
  • EZE-36:24 For I will take you from among the heathen, and
  • gather you out of
  • all countries, and will bring you into your own land.
  • EZE-36:25 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye
  • shall be clean:
  • from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I
  • cleanse you.
  • EZE-36:26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit
  • will I put
  • within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your
  • flesh, and I will
  • give you an heart of flesh.
  • EZE-36:27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to
  • walk in my
  • statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do [them].
  • EZE-36:28 And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your
  • fathers; and ye
  • shall be my people, and I will be your God.
  • EZE-36:29 I will also save you from all your uncleannesses: and
  • I will call
  • for the corn, and will increase it, and lay no famine upon you.
  • EZE-36:30 And I will multiply the fruit of the tree, and the
  • increase of the
  • field, that ye shall receive no more reproach of famine among
  • the heathen.
  • EZE-36:31 Then shall ye remember your own evil ways, and your
  • doings that
  • [were] not good, and shall loathe yourselves in your own sight
  • for your
  • iniquities and for your abominations.
  • EZE-36:32 Not for your sakes do I [this], saith the Lord GOD,
  • be it known
  • unto you: be ashamed and confounded for your own ways, O house
  • of Israel.
  • EZE-36:33 Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day that I shall have
  • cleansed you
  • from all your iniquities I will also cause [you] to dwell in the
  • cities, and
  • the wastes shall be builded.
  • EZE-36:34 And the desolate land shall be tilled, whereas it lay
  • desolate in
  • the sight of all that passed by.
  • EZE-36:35 And they shall say, This land that was desolate is
  • become like the
  • garden of Eden; and the waste and desolate and ruined cities
  • [are become]
  • fenced, [and] are inhabited.
  • EZE-36:36 Then the heathen that are left round about you shall
  • know that I
  • the LORD build the ruined [places, and] plant that that was
  • desolate: I the
  • LORD have spoken [it], and I will do [it].
  • EZE-36:37 Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will yet [for] this be
  • inquired of by
  • the house of Israel, to do [it] for them; I will increase them
  • with men like a
  • flock.
  • EZE-36:38 As the holy flock, as the flock of Jerusalem in her
  • solemn feasts;
  • so shall the waste cities be filled with flocks of men: and they
  • shall know
  • that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-37:1 The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out
  • in the spirit
  • of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley which
  • [was] full of
  • bones,
  • EZE-37:2 And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold,
  • [there were]
  • very many in the open valley; and, lo, [they were] very dry.
  • EZE-37:3 And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live?
  • And I
  • answered, O Lord GOD, thou knowest.
  • EZE-37:4 Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and
  • say unto them,
  • O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD.
  • EZE-37:5 Thus saith the Lord GOD unto these bones; Behold, I
  • will cause
  • breath to enter into you, and ye shall live:
  • EZE-37:6 And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up
  • flesh upon you,
  • and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall
  • live; and ye
  • shall know that I [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-37:7 So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I
  • prophesied, there was a
  • noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone
  • to his bone.
  • EZE-37:8 And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came
  • up upon them,
  • and the skin covered them above: but [there was] no breath in
  • them.
  • EZE-37:9 Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy,
  • son of man,
  • and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Come from the four
  • winds, O
  • breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.
  • EZE-37:10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath
  • came into them,
  • and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great
  • army.
  • EZE-37:11 Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the
  • whole house
  • of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope
  • is lost: we are
  • cut off for our parts.
  • EZE-37:12 Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the
  • Lord GOD;
  • Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to
  • come up out of
  • your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel.
  • EZE-37:13 And ye shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I have
  • opened your
  • graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your graves,
  • EZE-37:14 And shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live,
  • and I shall
  • place you in your own land: then shall ye know that I the LORD
  • have spoken
  • [it], and performed [it], saith the LORD.
  • EZE-37:15 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
  • EZE-37:16 Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and
  • write upon it,
  • For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then
  • take another
  • stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and
  • [for] all the
  • house of Israel his companions:
  • EZE-37:17 And join them one to another into one stick; and they
  • shall become
  • one in thine hand.
  • EZE-37:18 And when the children of thy people shall speak unto
  • thee, saying,
  • Wilt thou not show us what thou [meanest] by these?
  • EZE-37:19 Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I
  • will take the
  • stick of Joseph, which [is] in the hand of Ephraim, and the
  • tribes of Israel
  • his fellows, and will put them with him, [even] with the stick
  • of Judah, and
  • make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand.
  • EZE-37:20 And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be in thine
  • hand before
  • their eyes.
  • EZE-37:21 And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I
  • will take the
  • children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone,
  • and will
  • gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:
  • EZE-37:22 And I will make them one nation in the land upon the
  • mountains of
  • Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall
  • be no more two
  • nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any
  • more at all:
  • EZE-37:23 Neither shall they defile themselves any more with
  • their idols, nor
  • with their detestable things, nor with any of their
  • transgressions: but I will
  • save them out of all their dwellingplaces, wherein they have
  • sinned, and will
  • cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their
  • God.
  • EZE-37:24 And David my servant [shall be] king over them; and
  • they all shall
  • have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgments, and
  • observe my
  • statutes, and do them.
  • EZE-37:25 And they shall dwell in the land that I have given
  • unto Jacob my
  • servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell
  • therein, [even]
  • they, and their children, and their children's children for ever:
  • and my
  • servant David [shall be] their prince for ever.
  • EZE-37:26 Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them;
  • it shall be an
  • everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and
  • multiply them, and
  • will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore.
  • EZE-37:27 My tabernacle also shall be with them: yea, I will be
  • their God,
  • and they shall be my people.
  • EZE-37:28 And the heathen shall know that I the LORD do
  • sanctify Israel, when
  • my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for evermore.
  • EZE-38:1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
  • EZE-38:2 Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of
  • Magog, the chief
  • prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
  • EZE-38:3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I [am]
  • against thee, O
  • Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
  • EZE-38:4 And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws,
  • and I will
  • bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all
  • of them clothed
  • with all sorts [of armour, even] a great company [with] bucklers
  • and shields,
  • all of them handling swords:
  • EZE-38:5 Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them
  • with shield and
  • helmet:
  • EZE-38:6 Gomer, and all his bands; the house of Togarmah of the
  • north
  • quarters, and all his bands: [and] many people with thee.
  • EZE-38:7 Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou, and
  • all thy company
  • that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.
  • EZE-38:8 After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter
  • years thou
  • shalt come into the land [that is] brought back from the sword,
  • [and is]
  • gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel,
  • which have been
  • always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and
  • they shall dwell
  • safely all of them.
  • EZE-38:9 Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be
  • like a cloud
  • to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with
  • thee.
  • EZE-38:10 Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass,
  • [that] at the
  • same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think
  • an evil
  • thought:
  • EZE-38:11 And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of
  • unwalled villages;
  • I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of
  • them dwelling
  • without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
  • EZE-38:12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine
  • hand upon the
  • desolate places [that are now] inhabited, and upon the people
  • [that are]
  • gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods,
  • that dwell in
  • the midst of the land.
  • EZE-38:13 Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with
  • all the young
  • lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a
  • spoil? hast thou
  • gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and
  • gold, to take
  • away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?
  • EZE-38:14 Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog,
  • Thus saith the
  • Lord GOD; In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth safely,
  • shalt thou not
  • know [it]?
  • EZE-38:15 And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north
  • parts, thou,
  • and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a
  • great company,
  • and a mighty army:
  • EZE-38:16 And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel,
  • as a cloud to
  • cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring
  • thee against
  • my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be
  • sanctified in thee, O
  • Gog, before their eyes.
  • EZE-38:17 Thus saith the Lord GOD; [Art] thou he of whom I have
  • spoken in old
  • time by my servants the prophets of Israel, which prophesied in
  • those days
  • [many] years that I would bring thee against them?
  • EZE-38:18 And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog
  • shall come
  • against the land of Israel, saith the Lord GOD, [that] my fury
  • shall come up
  • in my face.
  • EZE-38:19 For in my jealousy [and] in the fire of my wrath have
  • I spoken,
  • Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of
  • Israel;
  • EZE-38:20 So that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the
  • heaven, and the
  • beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the
  • earth, and
  • all the men that [are] upon the face of the earth, shall shake
  • at my presence,
  • and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places
  • shall fall, and
  • every wall shall fall to the ground.
  • EZE-38:21 And I will call for a sword against him throughout
  • all my
  • mountains, saith the Lord GOD: every man's sword shall be
  • against his brother.
  • EZE-38:22 And I will plead against him with pestilence and with
  • blood; and I
  • will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many people
  • that [are]
  • with him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and
  • brimstone.
  • EZE-38:23 Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and
  • I will be
  • known in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I
  • [am] the LORD.
  • EZE-39:1 Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy against Gog, and
  • say, Thus
  • saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I [am] against thee, O Gog, the
  • chief prince of
  • Meshech and Tubal:
  • EZE-39:2 And I will turn thee back, and leave but the sixth
  • part of thee, and
  • will cause thee to come up from the north parts, and will bring
  • thee upon the
  • mountains of Israel:
  • EZE-39:3 And I will smite thy bow out of thy left hand, and
  • will cause thine
  • arrows to fall out of thy right hand.
  • EZE-39:4 Thou shalt fall upon the mountains of Israel, thou,
  • and all thy
  • bands, and the people that [is] with thee: I will give thee unto
  • the ravenous
  • birds of every sort, and [to] the beasts of the field to be
  • devoured.
  • EZE-39:5 Thou shalt fall upon the open field: for I have spoken
  • [it], saith
  • the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-39:6 And I will send a fire on Magog, and among them that
  • dwell
  • carelessly in the isles: and they shall know that I [am] the
  • LORD.
  • EZE-39:7 So will I make my holy name known in the midst of my
  • people Israel;
  • and I will not [let them] pollute my holy name any more: and the
  • heathen shall
  • know that I [am] the LORD, the Holy One in Israel.
  • EZE-39:8 Behold, it is come, and it is done, saith the Lord GOD;
  • this [is]
  • the day whereof I have spoken.
  • EZE-39:9 And they that dwell in the cities of Israel shall go
  • forth, and
  • shall set on fire and burn the weapons, both the shields and the
  • bucklers, the
  • bows and the arrows, and the handstaves, and the spears, and
  • they shall burn
  • them with fire seven years:
  • EZE-39:10 So that they shall take no wood out of the field,
  • neither cut down
  • [any] out of the forests; for they shall burn the weapons with
  • fire: and they
  • shall spoil those that spoiled them, and rob those that robbed
  • them, saith the
  • Lord GOD.
  • EZE-39:11 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] I will
  • give unto Gog
  • a place there of graves in Israel, the valley of the passengers
  • on the east of
  • the sea: and it shall stop the [noses] of the passengers: and
  • there shall they
  • bury Gog and all his multitude: and they shall call [it] The
  • valley of
  • Hamongog.
  • EZE-39:12 And seven months shall the house of Israel be burying
  • of them, that
  • they may cleanse the land.
  • EZE-39:13 Yea, all the people of the land shall bury [them];
  • and it shall be
  • to them a renown the day that I shall be glorified, saith the
  • Lord GOD.
  • EZE-39:14 And they shall sever out men of continual employment,
  • passing
  • through the land to bury with the passengers those that remain
  • upon the face
  • of the earth, to cleanse it: after the end of seven months shall
  • they search.
  • EZE-39:15 And the passengers [that] pass through the land, when
  • [any] seeth a
  • man's bone, then shall he set up a sign by it, till the buriers
  • have buried it
  • in the valley of Hamongog.
  • EZE-39:16 And also the name of the city [shall be] Hamonah.
  • Thus shall they
  • cleanse the land.
  • EZE-39:17 And, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD; Speak
  • unto every
  • feathered fowl, and to every beast of the field, Assemble
  • yourselves, and
  • come; gather yourselves on every side to my sacrifice that I do
  • sacrifice for
  • you, [even] a great sacrifice upon the mountains of Israel, that
  • ye may eat
  • flesh, and drink blood.
  • EZE-39:18 Ye shall eat the flesh of the mighty, and drink the
  • blood of the
  • princes of the earth, of rams, of lambs, and of goats, of
  • bullocks, all of
  • them fatlings of Bashan.
  • EZE-39:19 And ye shall eat fat till ye be full, and drink blood
  • till ye be
  • drunken, of my sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you.
  • EZE-39:20 Thus ye shall be filled at my table with horses and
  • chariots, with
  • mighty men, and with all men of war, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-39:21 And I will set my glory among the heathen, and all
  • the heathen
  • shall see my judgment that I have executed, and my hand that I
  • have laid upon
  • them.
  • EZE-39:22 So the house of Israel shall know that I [am] the
  • LORD their God
  • from that day and forward.
  • EZE-39:23 And the heathen shall know that the house of Israel
  • went into
  • captivity for their iniquity: because they trespassed against me,
  • therefore
  • hid I my face from them, and gave them into the hand of their
  • enemies: so fell
  • they all by the sword.
  • EZE-39:24 According to their uncleanness and according to their
  • transgressions have I done unto them, and hid my face from them.
  • EZE-39:25 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Now will I bring
  • again the
  • captivity of Jacob, and have mercy upon the whole house of
  • Israel, and will be
  • jealous for my holy name;
  • EZE-39:26 After that they have borne their shame, and all their
  • trespasses
  • whereby they have trespassed against me, when they dwelt safely
  • in their land,
  • and none made [them] afraid.
  • EZE-39:27 When I have brought them again from the people, and
  • gathered them
  • out of their enemies' lands, and am sanctified in them in the
  • sight of many
  • nations;
  • EZE-39:28 Then shall they know that I [am] the LORD their God,
  • which caused
  • them to be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have
  • gathered them unto
  • their own land, and have left none of them any more there.
  • EZE-39:29 Neither will I hide my face any more from them: for I
  • have poured
  • out my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-40:1 In the five and twentieth year of our captivity, in
  • the beginning of
  • the year, in the tenth [day] of the month, in the fourteenth
  • year after that
  • the city was smitten, in the selfsame day the hand of the LORD
  • was upon me,
  • and brought me thither.
  • EZE-40:2 In the visions of God brought he me into the land of
  • Israel, and set
  • me upon a very high mountain, by which [was] as the frame of a
  • city on the
  • south.
  • EZE-40:3 And he brought me thither, and, behold, [there was] a
  • man, whose
  • appearance [was] like the appearance of brass, with a line of
  • flax in his
  • hand, and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate.
  • EZE-40:4 And the man said unto me, Son of man, behold with
  • thine eyes, and
  • hear with thine ears, and set thine heart upon all that I shall
  • show thee; for
  • to the intent that I might show [them] unto thee [art] thou
  • brought hither:
  • declare all that thou seest to the house of Israel.
  • EZE-40:5 And behold a wall on the outside of the house round
  • about, and in
  • the man's hand a measuring reed of six cubits [long] by the
  • cubit and an hand
  • breadth: so he measured the breadth of the building, one reed;
  • and the height,
  • one reed.
  • EZE-40:6 Then came he unto the gate which looketh toward the
  • east, and went
  • up the stairs thereof, and measured the threshold of the gate,
  • [which was] one
  • reed broad; and the other threshold [of the gate, which was] one
  • reed broad.
  • EZE-40:7 And [every] little chamber [was] one reed long, and
  • one reed broad;
  • and between the little chambers [were] five cubits; and the
  • threshold of the
  • gate by the porch of the gate within [was] one reed.
  • EZE-40:8 He measured also the porch of the gate within, one
  • reed.
  • EZE-40:9 Then measured he the porch of the gate, eight cubits;
  • and the posts
  • thereof, two cubits; and the porch of the gate [was] inward.
  • EZE-40:10 And the little chambers of the gate eastward [were]
  • three on this
  • side, and three on that side; they three [were] of one measure:
  • and the posts
  • had one measure on this side and on that side.
  • EZE-40:11 And he measured the breadth of the entry of the gate,
  • ten cubits;
  • [and] the length of the gate, thirteen cubits.
  • EZE-40:12 The space also before the little chambers [was] one
  • cubit [on this
  • side], and the space [was] one cubit on that side: and the
  • little chambers
  • [were] six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.
  • EZE-40:13 He measured then the gate from the roof of [one]
  • little chamber to
  • the roof of another: the breadth [was] five and twenty cubits,
  • door against
  • door.
  • EZE-40:14 He made also posts of threescore cubits, even unto
  • the post of the
  • court round about the gate.
  • EZE-40:15 And from the face of the gate of the entrance unto
  • the face of the
  • porch of the inner gate [were] fifty cubits.
  • EZE-40:16 And [there were] narrow windows to the little
  • chambers, and to
  • their posts within the gate round about, and likewise to the
  • arches: and
  • windows [were] round about inward: and upon [each] post [were]
  • palm trees.
  • EZE-40:17 Then brought he me into the outward court, and, lo,
  • [there were]
  • chambers, and a pavement made for the court round about: thirty
  • chambers
  • [were] upon the pavement.
  • EZE-40:18 And the pavement by the side of the gates over
  • against the length
  • of the gates [was] the lower pavement.
  • EZE-40:19 Then he measured the breadth from the forefront of
  • the lower gate
  • unto the forefront of the inner court without, an hundred cubits
  • eastward and
  • northward.
  • EZE-40:20 And the gate of the outward court that looked toward
  • the north, he
  • measured the length thereof, and the breadth thereof.
  • EZE-40:21 And the little chambers thereof [were] three on this
  • side and three
  • on that side; and the posts thereof and the arches thereof were
  • after the
  • measure of the first gate: the length thereof [was] fifty cubits,
  • and the
  • breadth five and twenty cubits.
  • EZE-40:22 And their windows, and their arches, and their palm
  • trees, [were]
  • after the measure of the gate that looketh toward the east; and
  • they went up
  • unto it by seven steps; and the arches thereof [were] before
  • them.
  • EZE-40:23 And the gate of the inner court [was] over against
  • the gate toward
  • the north, and toward the east; and he measured from gate to
  • gate an hundred
  • cubits.
  • EZE-40:24 After that he brought me toward the south, and behold
  • a gate toward
  • the south: and he measured the posts thereof and the arches
  • thereof according
  • to these measures.
  • EZE-40:25 And [there were] windows in it and in the arches
  • thereof round
  • about, like those windows: the length [was] fifty cubits, and
  • the breadth five
  • and twenty cubits.
  • EZE-40:26 And [there were] seven steps to go up to it, and the
  • arches thereof
  • [were] before them: and it had palm trees, one on this side, and
  • another on
  • that side, upon the posts thereof.
  • EZE-40:27 And [there was] a gate in the inner court toward the
  • south: and he
  • measured from gate to gate toward the south an hundred cubits.
  • EZE-40:28 And he brought me to the inner court by the south
  • gate: and he
  • measured the south gate according to these measures;
  • EZE-40:29 And the little chambers thereof, and the posts
  • thereof, and the
  • arches thereof, according to these measures: and [there were]
  • windows in it
  • and in the arches thereof round about: [it was] fifty cubits
  • long, and five
  • and twenty cubits broad.
  • EZE-40:30 And the arches round about [were] five and twenty
  • cubits long, and
  • five cubits broad.
  • EZE-40:31 And the arches thereof [were] toward the utter court;
  • and palm
  • trees [were] upon the posts thereof: and the going up to it
  • [had] eight steps.
  • EZE-40:32 And he brought me into the inner court toward the
  • east: and he
  • measured the gate according to these measures.
  • EZE-40:33 And the little chambers thereof, and the posts
  • thereof, and the
  • arches thereof, [were] according to these measures: and [there
  • were] windows
  • therein and in the arches thereof round about: [it was] fifty
  • cubits long, and
  • five and twenty cubits broad.
  • EZE-40:34 And the arches thereof [were] toward the outward
  • court; and palm
  • trees [were] upon the posts thereof, on this side, and on that
  • side: and the
  • going up to it [had] eight steps.
  • EZE-40:35 And he brought me to the north gate, and measured
  • [it] according to
  • these measures;
  • EZE-40:36 The little chambers thereof, the posts thereof, and
  • the arches
  • thereof, and the windows to it round about: the length [was]
  • fifty cubits, and
  • the breadth five and twenty cubits.
  • EZE-40:37 And the posts thereof [were] toward the utter court;
  • and palm trees
  • [were] upon the posts thereof, on this side, and on that side:
  • and the going
  • up to it [had] eight steps.
  • EZE-40:38 And the chambers and the entries thereof [were] by
  • the posts of the
  • gates, where they washed the burnt offering.
  • EZE-40:39 And in the porch of the gate [were] two tables on
  • this side, and
  • two tables on that side, to slay thereon the burnt offering and
  • the sin
  • offering and the trespass offering.
  • EZE-40:40 And at the side without, as one goeth up to the entry
  • of the north
  • gate, [were] two tables; and on the other side, which [was] at
  • the porch of
  • the gate, [were] two tables.
  • EZE-40:41 Four tables [were] on this side, and four tables on
  • that side, by
  • the side of the gate; eight tables, whereupon they slew [their
  • sacrifices].
  • EZE-40:42 And the four tables [were] of hewn stone for the
  • burnt offering, of
  • a cubit and an half long, and a cubit and an half broad, and one
  • cubit high:
  • whereupon also they laid the instruments wherewith they slew the
  • burnt
  • offering and the sacrifice.
  • EZE-40:43 And within [were] hooks, an hand broad, fastened
  • round about: and
  • upon the tables [was] the flesh of the offering.
  • EZE-40:44 And without the inner gate [were] the chambers of the
  • singers in
  • the inner court, which [was] at the side of the north gate; and
  • their prospect
  • [was] toward the south: one at the side of the east gate
  • [having] the prospect
  • toward the north.
  • EZE-40:45 And he said unto me, This chamber, whose prospect
  • [is] toward the
  • south, [is] for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the
  • house.
  • EZE-40:46 And the chamber whose prospect [is] toward the north
  • [is] for the
  • priests, the keepers of the charge of the altar: these [are] the
  • sons of Zadok
  • among the sons of Levi, which come near to the LORD to minister
  • unto him.
  • EZE-40:47 So he measured the court, an hundred cubits long, and
  • an hundred
  • cubits broad, foursquare; and the altar [that was] before the
  • house.
  • EZE-40:48 And he brought me to the porch of the house, and
  • measured [each]
  • post of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits on
  • that side: and
  • the breadth of the gate [was] three cubits on this side, and
  • three cubits on
  • that side.
  • EZE-40:49 The length of the porch [was] twenty cubits, and the
  • breadth eleven
  • cubits; and [he brought me] by the steps whereby they went up to
  • it: and
  • [there were] pillars by the posts, one on this side, and another
  • on that side.
  • EZE-41:1 Afterward he brought me to the temple, and measured
  • the posts, six
  • cubits broad on the one side, and six cubits broad on the other
  • side, [which
  • was] the breadth of the tabernacle.
  • EZE-41:2 And the breadth of the door [was] ten cubits: and the
  • sides of the
  • door [were] five cubits on the one side, and five cubits on the
  • other side:
  • and he measured the length thereof, forty cubits: and the
  • breadth, twenty
  • cubits.
  • EZE-41:3 Then went he inward, and measured the post of the door,
  • two cubits;
  • and the door, six cubits; and the breadth of the door, seven
  • cubits.
  • EZE-41:4 So he measured the length thereof, twenty cubits; and
  • the breadth,
  • twenty cubits, before the temple: and he said unto me, This [is]
  • the most holy
  • [place].
  • EZE-41:5 After he measured the wall of the house, six cubits;
  • and the breadth
  • of [every] side chamber, four cubits, round about the house on
  • every side.
  • EZE-41:6 And the side chambers [were] three, one over another,
  • and thirty in
  • order; and they entered into the wall which [was] of the house
  • for the side
  • chambers round about, that they might have hold, but they had
  • not hold in the
  • wall of the house.
  • EZE-41:7 And [there was] an enlarging, and a winding about
  • still upward to
  • the side chambers: for the winding about of the house went still
  • upward round
  • about the house: therefore the breadth of the house [was still]
  • upward, and so
  • increased [from] the lowest [chamber] to the highest by the
  • midst.
  • EZE-41:8 I saw also the height of the house round about: the
  • foundations of
  • the side chambers [were] a full reed of six great cubits.
  • EZE-41:9 The thickness of the wall, which [was] for the side
  • chamber without,
  • [was] five cubits: and [that] which [was] left [was] the place
  • of the side
  • chambers that [were] within.
  • EZE-41:10 And between the chambers [was] the wideness of twenty
  • cubits round
  • about the house on every side.
  • EZE-41:11 And the doors of the side chambers [were] toward [the
  • place that
  • was] left, one door toward the north, and another door toward
  • the south: and
  • the breadth of the place that was left [was] five cubits round
  • about.
  • EZE-41:12 Now the building that [was] before the separate place
  • at the end
  • toward the west [was] seventy cubits broad; and the wall of the
  • building [was]
  • five cubits thick round about, and the length thereof ninety
  • cubits.
  • EZE-41:13 So he measured the house, an hundred cubits long; and
  • the separate
  • place, and the building, with the walls thereof, an hundred
  • cubits long;
  • EZE-41:14 Also the breadth of the face of the house, and of the
  • separate
  • place toward the east, an hundred cubits.
  • EZE-41:15 And he measured the length of the building over
  • against the
  • separate place which [was] behind it, and the galleries thereof
  • on the one
  • side and on the other side, an hundred cubits, with the inner
  • temple, and the
  • porches of the court;
  • EZE-41:16 The door posts, and the narrow windows, and the
  • galleries round
  • about on their three stories, over against the door, ceiled with
  • wood round
  • about, and from the ground up to the windows, and the windows
  • [were] covered;
  • EZE-41:17 To that above the door, even unto the inner house,
  • and without, and
  • by all the wall round about within and without, by measure.
  • EZE-41:18 And [it was] made with cherubims and palm trees, so
  • that a palm
  • tree [was] between a cherub and a cherub; and [every] cherub had
  • two faces;
  • EZE-41:19 So that the face of a man [was] toward the palm tree
  • on the one
  • side, and the face of a young lion toward the palm tree on the
  • other side: [it
  • was] made through all the house round about.
  • EZE-41:20 From the ground unto above the door [were] cherubims
  • and palm trees
  • made, and [on] the wall of the temple.
  • EZE-41:21 The posts of the temple [were] squared, [and] the
  • face of the
  • sanctuary; the appearance [of the one] as the appearance [of the
  • other].
  • EZE-41:22 The altar of wood [was] three cubits high, and the
  • length thereof
  • two cubits; and the corners thereof, and the length thereof, and
  • the walls
  • thereof, [were] of wood: and he said unto me, This [is] the
  • table that [is]
  • before the LORD.
  • EZE-41:23 And the temple and the sanctuary had two doors.
  • EZE-41:24 And the doors had two leaves [apiece], two turning
  • leaves; two
  • [leaves] for the one door, and two leaves for the other [door].
  • EZE-41:25 And [there were] made on them, on the doors of the
  • temple,
  • cherubims and palm trees, like as [were] made upon the walls;
  • and [there were]
  • thick planks upon the face of the porch without.
  • EZE-41:26 And [there were] narrow windows and palm trees on the
  • one side and
  • on the other side, on the sides of the porch, and [upon] the
  • side chambers of
  • the house, and thick planks.
  • EZE-42:1 Then he brought me forth into the utter court, the way
  • toward the
  • north: and he brought me into the chamber that [was] over
  • against the separate
  • place, and which [was] before the building toward the north.
  • EZE-42:2 Before the length of an hundred cubits [was] the north
  • door, and the
  • breadth [was] fifty cubits.
  • EZE-42:3 Over against the twenty [cubits] which [were] for the
  • inner court,
  • and over against the pavement which [was] for the utter court,
  • [was] gallery
  • against gallery in three [stories].
  • EZE-42:4 And before the chambers [was] a walk of ten cubits
  • breadth inward, a
  • way of one cubit; and their doors toward the north.
  • EZE-42:5 Now the upper chambers [were] shorter: for the
  • galleries were higher
  • than these, than the lower, and than the middlemost of the
  • building.
  • EZE-42:6 For they [were] in three [stories], but had not
  • pillars as the
  • pillars of the courts: therefore [the building] was straitened
  • more than the
  • lowest and the middlemost from the ground.
  • EZE-42:7 And the wall that [was] without over against the
  • chambers, toward
  • the utter court on the forepart of the chambers, the length
  • thereof [was]
  • fifty cubits.
  • EZE-42:8 For the length of the chambers that [were] in the
  • utter court [was]
  • fifty cubits: and, lo, before the temple [were] an hundred
  • cubits.
  • EZE-42:9 And from under these chambers [was] the entry on the
  • east side, as
  • one goeth into them from the utter court.
  • EZE-42:10 The chambers [were] in the thickness of the wall of
  • the court
  • toward the east, over against the separate place, and over
  • against the
  • building.
  • EZE-42:11 And the way before them [was] like the appearance of
  • the chambers
  • which [were] toward the north, as long as they, [and] as broad
  • as they: and
  • all their goings out [were] both according to their fashions,
  • and according to
  • their doors.
  • EZE-42:12 And according to the doors of the chambers that
  • [were] toward the
  • south [was] a door in the head of the way, [even] the way
  • directly before the
  • wall toward the east, as one entereth into them.
  • EZE-42:13 Then said he unto me, The north chambers [and] the
  • south chambers,
  • which [are] before the separate place, they [be] holy chambers,
  • where the
  • priests that approach unto the LORD shall eat the most holy
  • things: there
  • shall they lay the most holy things, and the meat offering, and
  • the sin
  • offering, and the trespass offering; for the place [is] holy.
  • EZE-42:14 When the priests enter therein, then shall they not
  • go out of the
  • holy [place] into the utter court, but there they shall lay
  • their garments
  • wherein they minister; for they [are] holy; and shall put on
  • other garments,
  • and shall approach to [those things] which [are] for the people.
  • EZE-42:15 Now when he had made an end of measuring the inner
  • house, he
  • brought me forth toward the gate whose prospect [is] toward the
  • east, and
  • measured it round about.
  • EZE-42:16 He measured the east side with the measuring reed,
  • five hundred
  • reeds, with the measuring reed round about.
  • EZE-42:17 He measured the north side, five hundred reeds, with
  • the measuring
  • reed round about.
  • EZE-42:18 He measured the south side, five hundred reeds, with
  • the measuring
  • reed.
  • EZE-42:19 He turned about to the west side, [and] measured five
  • hundred reeds
  • with the measuring reed.
  • EZE-42:20 He measured it by the four sides: it had a wall round
  • about, five
  • hundred [reeds] long, and five hundred broad, to make a
  • separation between the
  • sanctuary and the profane place.
  • EZE-43:1 Afterward he brought me to the gate, [even] the gate
  • that looketh
  • toward the east:
  • EZE-43:2 And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from
  • the way of the
  • east: and his voice [was] like a noise of many waters: and the
  • earth shined
  • with his glory.
  • EZE-43:3 And [it was] according to the appearance of the vision
  • which I saw,
  • [even] according to the vision that I saw when I came to destroy
  • the city: and
  • the visions [were] like the vision that I saw by the river
  • Chebar; and I fell
  • upon my face.
  • EZE-43:4 And the glory of the LORD came into the house by the
  • way of the gate
  • whose prospect [is] toward the east.
  • EZE-43:5 So the spirit took me up, and brought me into the
  • inner court; and,
  • behold, the glory of the LORD filled the house.
  • EZE-43:6 And I heard [him] speaking unto me out of the house;
  • and the man
  • stood by me.
  • EZE-43:7 And he said unto me, Son of man, the place of my
  • throne, and the
  • place of the soles of my feet, where I will dwell in the midst
  • of the children
  • of Israel for ever, and my holy name, shall the house of Israel
  • no more
  • defile, [neither] they, nor their kings, by their whoredom, nor
  • by the
  • carcases of their kings in their high places.
  • EZE-43:8 In their setting of their threshold by my thresholds,
  • and their post
  • by my posts, and the wall between me and them, they have even
  • defiled my holy
  • name by their abominations that they have committed: wherefore I
  • have consumed
  • them in mine anger.
  • EZE-43:9 Now let them put away their whoredom, and the carcases
  • of their
  • kings, far from me, and I will dwell in the midst of them for
  • ever.
  • EZE-43:10 Thou son of man, show the house to the house of
  • Israel, that they
  • may be ashamed of their iniquities: and let them measure the
  • pattern.
  • EZE-43:11 And if they be ashamed of all that they have done,
  • show them the
  • form of the house, and the fashion thereof, and the goings out
  • thereof, and
  • the comings in thereof, and all the forms thereof, and all the
  • ordinances
  • thereof, and all the forms thereof, and all the laws thereof:
  • and write [it]
  • in their sight, that they may keep the whole form thereof, and
  • all the
  • ordinances thereof, and do them.
  • EZE-43:12 This [is] the law of the house; Upon the top of the
  • mountain the
  • whole limit thereof round about [shall be] most holy. Behold,
  • this [is] the
  • law of the house.
  • EZE-43:13 And these [are] the measures of the altar after the
  • cubits: The
  • cubit [is] a cubit and an hand breadth; even the bottom [shall
  • be] a cubit,
  • and the breadth a cubit, and the border thereof by the edge
  • thereof round
  • about [shall be] a span: and this [shall be] the higher place of
  • the altar.
  • EZE-43:14 And from the bottom [upon] the ground [even] to the
  • lower settle
  • [shall be] two cubits, and the breadth one cubit; and from the
  • lesser settle
  • [even] to the greater settle [shall be] four cubits, and the
  • breadth [one]
  • cubit.
  • EZE-43:15 So the altar [shall be] four cubits; and from the
  • altar and upward
  • [shall be] four horns.
  • EZE-43:16 And the altar [shall be] twelve [cubits] long, twelve
  • broad, square
  • in the four squares thereof.
  • EZE-43:17 And the settle [shall be] fourteen [cubits] long and
  • fourteen broad
  • in the four squares thereof; and the border about it [shall be]
  • half a cubit;
  • and the bottom thereof [shall be] a cubit about; and his stairs
  • shall look
  • toward the east.
  • EZE-43:18 And he said unto me, Son of man, thus saith the Lord
  • GOD; These
  • [are] the ordinances of the altar in the day when they shall
  • make it, to offer
  • burnt offerings thereon, and to sprinkle blood thereon.
  • EZE-43:19 And thou shalt give to the priests the Levites that
  • be of the seed
  • of Zadok, which approach unto me, to minister unto me, saith the
  • Lord GOD, a
  • young bullock for a sin offering.
  • EZE-43:20 And thou shalt take of the blood thereof, and put
  • [it] on the four
  • horns of it, and on the four corners of the settle, and upon the
  • border round
  • about: thus shalt thou cleanse and purge it.
  • EZE-43:21 Thou shalt take the bullock also of the sin offering,
  • and he shall
  • burn it in the appointed place of the house, without the
  • sanctuary.
  • EZE-43:22 And on the second day thou shalt offer a kid of the
  • goats without
  • blemish for a sin offering; and they shall cleanse the altar, as
  • they did
  • cleanse [it] with the bullock.
  • EZE-43:23 When thou hast made an end of cleansing [it], thou
  • shalt offer a
  • young bullock without blemish, and a ram out of the flock
  • without blemish.
  • EZE-43:24 And thou shalt offer them before the LORD, and the
  • priests shall
  • cast salt upon them, and they shall offer them up [for] a burnt
  • offering unto
  • the LORD.
  • EZE-43:25 Seven days shalt thou prepare every day a goat [for]
  • a sin
  • offering: they shall also prepare a young bullock, and a ram out
  • of the flock,
  • without blemish.
  • EZE-43:26 Seven days shall they purge the altar and purify it;
  • and they shall
  • consecrate themselves.
  • EZE-43:27 And when these days are expired, it shall be, [that]
  • upon the
  • eighth day, and [so] forward, the priests shall make your burnt
  • offerings upon
  • the altar, and your peace offerings; and I will accept you,
  • saith the Lord
  • GOD.
  • EZE-44:1 Then he brought me back the way of the gate of the
  • outward sanctuary
  • which looketh toward the east; and it [was] shut.
  • EZE-44:2 Then said the LORD unto me; This gate shall be shut,
  • it shall not be
  • opened, and no man shall enter in by it; because the LORD, the
  • God of Israel,
  • hath entered in by it, therefore it shall be shut.
  • EZE-44:3 [It is] for the prince; the prince, he shall sit in it
  • to eat bread
  • before the LORD; he shall enter by the way of the porch of
  • [that] gate, and
  • shall go out by the way of the same.
  • EZE-44:4 Then brought he me the way of the north gate before
  • the house: and I
  • looked, and, behold, the glory of the LORD filled the house of
  • the LORD: and I
  • fell upon my face.
  • EZE-44:5 And the LORD said unto me, Son of man, mark well, and
  • behold with
  • thine eyes, and hear with thine ears all that I say unto thee
  • concerning all
  • the ordinances of the house of the LORD, and all the laws
  • thereof; and mark
  • well the entering in of the house, with every going forth of the
  • sanctuary.
  • EZE-44:6 And thou shalt say to the rebellious, [even] to the
  • house of Israel,
  • Thus saith the Lord GOD; O ye house of Israel, let it suffice
  • you of all your
  • abominations,
  • EZE-44:7 In that ye have brought [into my sanctuary] strangers,
  • uncircumcised
  • in heart, and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in my sanctuary, to
  • pollute it,
  • [even] my house, when ye offer my bread, the fat and the blood,
  • and they have
  • broken my covenant because of all your abominations.
  • EZE-44:8 And ye have not kept the charge of mine holy things:
  • but ye have set
  • keepers of my charge in my sanctuary for yourselves.
  • EZE-44:9 Thus saith the Lord GOD; No stranger, uncircumcised in
  • heart, nor
  • uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my sanctuary, of any
  • stranger that
  • [is] among the children of Israel.
  • EZE-44:10 And the Levites that are gone away far from me, when
  • Israel went
  • astray, which went astray away from me after their idols; they
  • shall even bear
  • their iniquity.
  • EZE-44:11 Yet they shall be ministers in my sanctuary, [having]
  • charge at the
  • gates of the house, and ministering to the house: they shall
  • slay the burnt
  • offering and the sacrifice for the people, and they shall stand
  • before them to
  • minister unto them.
  • EZE-44:12 Because they ministered unto them before their idols,
  • and caused
  • the house of Israel to fall into iniquity; therefore have I
  • lifted up mine
  • hand against them, saith the Lord GOD, and they shall bear their
  • iniquity.
  • EZE-44:13 And they shall not come near unto me, to do the
  • office of a priest
  • unto me, nor to come near to any of my holy things, in the most
  • holy [place]:
  • but they shall bear their shame, and their abominations which
  • they have
  • committed.
  • EZE-44:14 But I will make them keepers of the charge of the
  • house, for all
  • the service thereof, and for all that shall be done therein.
  • EZE-44:15 But the priests the Levites, the sons of Zadok, that
  • kept the
  • charge of my sanctuary when the children of Israel went astray
  • from me, they
  • shall come near to me to minister unto me, and they shall stand
  • before me to
  • offer unto me the fat and the blood, saith the Lord GOD:
  • EZE-44:16 They shall enter into my sanctuary, and they shall
  • come near to my
  • table, to minister unto me, and they shall keep my charge.
  • EZE-44:17 And it shall come to pass, [that] when they enter in
  • at the gates
  • of the inner court, they shall be clothed with linen garments;
  • and no wool
  • shall come upon them, whiles they minister in the gates of the
  • inner court,
  • and within.
  • EZE-44:18 They shall have linen bonnets upon their heads, and
  • shall have
  • linen breeches upon their loins; they shall not gird
  • [themselves] with any
  • thing that causeth sweat.
  • EZE-44:19 And when they go forth into the utter court, [even]
  • into the utter
  • court to the people, they shall put off their garments wherein
  • they
  • ministered, and lay them in the holy chambers, and they shall
  • put on other
  • garments; and they shall not sanctify the people with their
  • garments.
  • EZE-44:20 Neither shall they shave their heads, nor suffer
  • their locks to
  • grow long; they shall only poll their heads.
  • EZE-44:21 Neither shall any priest drink wine, when they enter
  • into the inner
  • court.
  • EZE-44:22 Neither shall they take for their wives a widow, nor
  • her that is
  • put away: but they shall take maidens of the seed of the house
  • of Israel, or a
  • widow that had a priest before.
  • EZE-44:23 And they shall teach my people [the difference]
  • between the holy
  • and profane, and cause them to discern between the unclean and
  • the clean.
  • EZE-44:24 And in controversy they shall stand in judgment;
  • [and] they shall
  • judge it according to my judgments: and they shall keep my laws
  • and my
  • statutes in all mine assemblies; and they shall hallow my
  • sabbaths.
  • EZE-44:25 And they shall come at no dead person to defile
  • themselves: but for
  • father, or for mother, or for son, or for daughter, for brother,
  • or for sister
  • that hath had no husband, they may defile themselves.
  • EZE-44:26 And after he is cleansed, they shall reckon unto him
  • seven days.
  • EZE-44:27 And in the day that he goeth into the sanctuary, unto
  • the inner
  • court, to minister in the sanctuary, he shall offer his sin
  • offering, saith
  • the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-44:28 And it shall be unto them for an inheritance: I [am]
  • their
  • inheritance: and ye shall give them no possession in Israel: I
  • [am] their
  • possession.
  • EZE-44:29 They shall eat the meat offering, and the sin
  • offering, and the
  • trespass offering: and every dedicated thing in Israel shall be
  • theirs.
  • EZE-44:30 And the first of all the firstfruits of all [things],
  • and every
  • oblation of all, of every [sort] of your oblations, shall be the
  • priest's: ye
  • shall also give unto the priest the first of your dough, that he
  • may cause the
  • blessing to rest in thine house.
  • EZE-44:31 The priests shall not eat of any thing that is dead
  • of itself, or
  • torn, whether it be fowl or beast.
  • EZE-45:1 Moreover, when ye shall divide by lot the land for
  • inheritance, ye
  • shall offer an oblation unto the LORD, an holy portion of the
  • land: the length
  • [shall be] the length of five and twenty thousand [reeds], and
  • the breadth
  • [shall be] ten thousand. This [shall be] holy in all the borders
  • thereof round
  • about.
  • EZE-45:2 Of this there shall be for the sanctuary five hundred
  • [in length],
  • with five hundred [in breadth], square round about; and fifty
  • cubits round
  • about for the suburbs thereof.
  • EZE-45:3 And of this measure shalt thou measure the length of
  • five and twenty
  • thousand, and the breadth of ten thousand: and in it shall be
  • the sanctuary
  • [and] the most holy [place].
  • EZE-45:4 The holy [portion] of the land shall be for the
  • priests the
  • ministers of the sanctuary, which shall come near to minister
  • unto the LORD:
  • and it shall be a place for their houses, and an holy place for
  • the sanctuary.
  • EZE-45:5 And the five and twenty thousand of length, and the
  • ten thousand of
  • breadth, shall also the Levites, the ministers of the house,
  • have for
  • themselves, for a possession for twenty chambers.
  • EZE-45:6 And ye shall appoint the possession of the city five
  • thousand broad,
  • and five and twenty thousand long, over against the oblation of
  • the holy
  • [portion]: it shall be for the whole house of Israel.
  • EZE-45:7 And a [portion shall be] for the prince on the one
  • side and on the
  • other side of the oblation of the holy [portion], and of the
  • possession of the
  • city, before the oblation of the holy [portion], and before the
  • possession of
  • the city, from the west side westward, and from the east side
  • eastward: and
  • the length [shall be] over against one of the portions, from the
  • west border
  • unto the east border.
  • EZE-45:8 In the land shall be his possession in Israel: and my
  • princes shall
  • no more oppress my people; and [the rest of] the land shall they
  • give to the
  • house of Israel according to their tribes.
  • EZE-45:9 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Let it suffice you, O princes
  • of Israel:
  • remove violence and spoil, and execute judgment and justice,
  • take away your
  • exactions from my people, saith the Lord GOD.
  • EZE-45:10 Ye shall have just balances, and a just ephah, and a
  • just bath.
  • EZE-45:11 The ephah and the bath shall be of one measure, that
  • the bath may
  • contain the tenth part of an homer, and the ephah the tenth part
  • of an homer:
  • the measure thereof shall be after the homer.
  • EZE-45:12 And the shekel [shall be] twenty gerahs: twenty
  • shekels, five and
  • twenty shekels, fifteen shekels, shall be your maneh.
  • EZE-45:13 This [is] the oblation that ye shall offer; the sixth
  • part of an
  • ephah of an homer of wheat, and ye shall give the sixth part of
  • an ephah of an
  • homer of barley:
  • EZE-45:14 Concerning the ordinance of oil, the bath of oil, [ye
  • shall offer]
  • the tenth part of a bath out of the cor, [which is] an homer of
  • ten baths; for
  • ten baths [are] an homer:
  • EZE-45:15 And one lamb out of the flock, out of two hundred,
  • out of the fat
  • pastures of Israel; for a meat offering, and for a burnt
  • offering, and for
  • peace offerings, to make reconciliation for them, saith the Lord
  • GOD.
  • EZE-45:16 All the people of the land shall give this oblation
  • for the prince
  • in Israel.
  • EZE-45:17 And it shall be the prince's part [to give] burnt
  • offerings, and
  • meat offerings, and drink offerings, in the feasts, and in the
  • new moons, and
  • in the sabbaths, in all solemnities of the house of Israel: he
  • shall prepare
  • the sin offering, and the meat offering, and the burnt offering,
  • and the peace
  • offerings, to make reconciliation for the house of Israel.
  • EZE-45:18 Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the first [month], in the
  • first [day]
  • of the month, thou shalt take a young bullock without blemish,
  • and cleanse the
  • sanctuary:
  • EZE-45:19 And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin
  • offering, and put
  • [it] upon the posts of the house, and upon the four corners of
  • the settle of
  • the altar, and upon the posts of the gate of the inner court.
  • EZE-45:20 And so thou shalt do the seventh [day] of the month
  • for every one
  • that erreth, and for [him that is] simple: so shall ye reconcile
  • the house.
  • EZE-45:21 In the first [month], in the fourteenth day of the
  • month, ye shall
  • have the passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread shall
  • be eaten.
  • EZE-45:22 And upon that day shall the prince prepare for
  • himself and for all
  • the people of the land a bullock [for] a sin offering.
  • EZE-45:23 And seven days of the feast he shall prepare a burnt
  • offering to
  • the LORD, seven bullocks and seven rams without blemish daily
  • the seven days;
  • and a kid of the goats daily [for] a sin offering.
  • EZE-45:24 And he shall prepare a meat offering of an ephah for
  • a bullock, and
  • an ephah for a ram, and an hin of oil for an ephah.
  • EZE-45:25 In the seventh [month], in the fifteenth day of the
  • month, shall he
  • do the like in the feast of the seven days, according to the sin
  • offering,
  • according to the burnt offering, and according to the meat
  • offering, and
  • according to the oil.
  • EZE-46:1 Thus saith the Lord GOD; The gate of the inner court
  • that looketh
  • toward the east shall be shut the six working days; but on the
  • sabbath it
  • shall be opened, and in the day of the new moon it shall be
  • opened.
  • EZE-46:2 And the prince shall enter by the way of the porch of
  • [that] gate
  • without, and shall stand by the post of the gate, and the
  • priests shall
  • prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings, and he shall
  • worship at
  • the threshold of the gate: then he shall go forth; but the gate
  • shall not be
  • shut until the evening.
  • EZE-46:3 Likewise the people of the land shall worship at the
  • door of this
  • gate before the LORD in the sabbaths and in the new moons.
  • EZE-46:4 And the burnt offering that the prince shall offer
  • unto the LORD in
  • the sabbath day [shall be] six lambs without blemish, and a ram
  • without
  • blemish.
  • EZE-46:5 And the meat offering [shall be] an ephah for a ram,
  • and the meat
  • offering for the lambs as he shall be able to give, and an hin
  • of oil to an
  • ephah.
  • EZE-46:6 And in the day of the new moon [it shall be] a young
  • bullock without
  • blemish, and six lambs, and a ram: they shall be without blemish.
  • EZE-46:7 And he shall prepare a meat offering, an ephah for a
  • bullock, and an
  • ephah for a ram, and for the lambs according as his hand shall
  • attain unto,
  • and an hin of oil to an ephah.
  • EZE-46:8 And when the prince shall enter, he shall go in by the
  • way of the
  • porch of [that] gate, and he shall go forth by the way thereof.
  • EZE-46:9 But when the people of the land shall come before the
  • LORD in the
  • solemn feasts, he that entereth in by the way of the north gate
  • to worship
  • shall go out by the way of the south gate; and he that entereth
  • by the way of
  • the south gate shall go forth by the way of the north gate: he
  • shall not
  • return by the way of the gate whereby he came in, but shall go
  • forth over
  • against it.
  • EZE-46:10 And the prince in the midst of them, when they go in,
  • shall go in;
  • and when they go forth, shall go forth.
  • EZE-46:11 And in the feasts and in the solemnities the meat
  • offering shall be
  • an ephah to a bullock, and an ephah to a ram, and to the lambs
  • as he is able
  • to give, and an hin of oil to an ephah.
  • EZE-46:12 Now when the prince shall prepare a voluntary burnt
  • offering or
  • peace offerings voluntarily unto the LORD, [one] shall then open
  • him the gate
  • that looketh toward the east, and he shall prepare his burnt
  • offering and his
  • peace offerings, as he did on the sabbath day: then he shall go
  • forth; and
  • after his going forth [one] shall shut the gate.
  • EZE-46:13 Thou shalt daily prepare a burnt offering unto the
  • LORD [of] a lamb
  • of the first year without blemish: thou shalt prepare it every
  • morning.
  • EZE-46:14 And thou shalt prepare a meat offering for it every
  • morning, the
  • sixth part of an ephah, and the third part of an hin of oil, to
  • temper with
  • the fine flour; a meat offering continually by a perpetual
  • ordinance unto the
  • LORD.
  • EZE-46:15 Thus shall they prepare the lamb, and the meat
  • offering, and the
  • oil, every morning [for] a continual burnt offering.
  • EZE-46:16 Thus saith the Lord GOD; If the prince give a gift
  • unto any of his
  • sons, the inheritance thereof shall be his sons'; it [shall be]
  • their
  • possession by inheritance.
  • EZE-46:17 But if he give a gift of his inheritance to one of
  • his servants,
  • then it shall be his to the year of liberty; after it shall
  • return to the
  • prince: but his inheritance shall be his sons' for them.
  • EZE-46:18 Moreover the prince shall not take of the people's
  • inheritance by
  • oppression, to thrust them out of their possession; [but] he
  • shall give his
  • sons inheritance out of his own possession: that my people be
  • not scattered
  • every man from his possession.
  • EZE-46:19 After he brought me through the entry, which [was] at
  • the side of
  • the gate, into the holy chambers of the priests, which looked
  • toward the
  • north: and, behold, there [was] a place on the two sides
  • westward.
  • EZE-46:20 Then said he unto me, This [is] the place where the
  • priests shall
  • boil the trespass offering and the sin offering, where they
  • shall bake the
  • meat offering; that they bear [them] not out into the utter
  • court, to sanctify
  • the people.
  • EZE-46:21 Then he brought me forth into the utter court, and
  • caused me to
  • pass by the four corners of the court; and, behold, in every
  • corner of the
  • court [there was] a court.
  • EZE-46:22 In the four corners of the court [there were] courts
  • joined of
  • forty [cubits] long and thirty broad: these four corners [were]
  • of one
  • measure.
  • EZE-46:23 And [there was] a row [of building] round about in
  • them, round
  • about them four, and [it was] made with boiling places under the
  • rows round
  • about.
  • EZE-46:24 Then said he unto me, These [are] the places of them
  • that boil,
  • where the ministers of the house shall boil the sacrifice of the
  • people.
  • EZE-47:1 Afterward he brought me again unto the door of the
  • house; and,
  • behold, waters issued out from under the threshold of the house
  • eastward: for
  • the forefront of the house [stood toward] the east, and the
  • waters came down
  • from under from the right side of the house, at the south [side]
  • of the altar.
  • EZE-47:2 Then brought he me out of the way of the gate
  • northward, and led me
  • about the way without unto the utter gate by the way that
  • looketh eastward;
  • and, behold, there ran out waters on the right side.
  • EZE-47:3 And when the man that had the line in his hand went
  • forth eastward,
  • he measured a thousand cubits, and he brought me through the
  • waters; the
  • waters [were] to the ankles.
  • EZE-47:4 Again he measured a thousand, and brought me through
  • the waters; the
  • waters [were] to the knees. Again he measured a thousand, and
  • brought me
  • through; the waters [were] to the loins.
  • EZE-47:5 Afterward he measured a thousand; [and it was] a river
  • that I could
  • not pass over: for the waters were risen, waters to swim in, a
  • river that
  • could not be passed over.
  • EZE-47:6 And he said unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen
  • [this]? Then he
  • brought me, and caused me to return to the brink of the river.
  • EZE-47:7 Now when I had returned, behold, at the bank of the
  • river [were]
  • very many trees on the one side and on the other.
  • EZE-47:8 Then said he unto me, These waters issue out toward
  • the east
  • country, and go down into the desert, and go into the sea:
  • [which being]
  • brought forth into the sea, the waters shall be healed.
  • EZE-47:9 And it shall come to pass, [that] every thing that
  • liveth, which
  • moveth, whithersoever the rivers shall come, shall live: and
  • there shall be a
  • very great multitude of fish, because these waters shall come
  • thither: for
  • they shall be healed; and every thing shall live whither the
  • river cometh.
  • EZE-47:10 And it shall come to pass, [that] the fishers shall
  • stand upon it
  • from Engedi even unto Eneglaim; they shall be a [place] to
  • spread forth nets;
  • their fish shall be according to their kinds, as the fish of the
  • great sea,
  • exceeding many.
  • EZE-47:11 But the miry places thereof and the marishes thereof
  • shall not be
  • healed; they shall be given to salt.
  • EZE-47:12 And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side
  • and on that
  • side, shall grow all trees for meat, whose leaf shall not fade,
  • neither shall
  • the fruit thereof be consumed: it shall bring forth new fruit
  • according to his
  • months, because their waters they issued out of the sanctuary:
  • and the fruit
  • thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine.
  • EZE-47:13 Thus saith the Lord GOD; This [shall be] the border,
  • whereby ye
  • shall inherit the land according to the twelve tribes of Israel:
  • Joseph [shall
  • have two] portions.
  • EZE-47:14 And ye shall inherit it, one as well as another:
  • [concerning] the
  • which I lifted up mine hand to give it unto your fathers: and
  • this land shall
  • fall unto you for inheritance.
  • EZE-47:15 And this [shall be] the border of the land toward the
  • north side,
  • from the great sea, the way of Hethlon, as men go to Zedad;
  • EZE-47:16 Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which [is] between the
  • border of
  • Damascus and the border of Hamath; Hazarhatticon, which [is] by
  • the coast of
  • Hauran.
  • EZE-47:17 And the border from the sea shall be Hazarenan, the
  • border of
  • Damascus, and the north northward, and the border of Hamath. And
  • [this is] the
  • north side.
  • EZE-47:18 And the east side ye shall measure from Hauran, and
  • from Damascus,
  • and from Gilead, and from the land of Israel [by] Jordan, from
  • the border unto
  • the east sea. And [this is] the east side.
  • EZE-47:19 And the south side southward, from Tamar [even] to
  • the waters of
  • strife [in] Kadesh, the river to the great sea. And [this is]
  • the south side
  • southward.
  • EZE-47:20 The west side also [shall be] the great sea from the
  • border, till a
  • man come over against Hamath. This [is] the west side.
  • EZE-47:21 So shall ye divide this land unto you according to
  • the tribes of
  • Israel.
  • EZE-47:22 And it shall come to pass, [that] ye shall divide it
  • by lot for an
  • inheritance unto you, and to the strangers that sojourn among
  • you, which shall
  • beget children among you: and they shall be unto you as born in
  • the country
  • among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with
  • you among the
  • tribes of Israel.
  • EZE-47:23 And it shall come to pass, [that] in what tribe the
  • stranger
  • sojourneth, there shall ye give [him] his inheritance, saith the
  • Lord GOD.
  • EZE-48:1 Now these [are] the names of the tribes. From the
  • north end to the
  • coast of the way of Hethlon, as one goeth to Hamath, Hazarenan,
  • the border of
  • Damascus northward, to the coast of Hamath; for these are his
  • sides east [and]
  • west; a [portion for] Dan.
  • EZE-48:2 And by the border of Dan, from the east side unto the
  • west side, a
  • [portion for] Asher.
  • EZE-48:3 And by the border of Asher, from the east side even
  • unto the west
  • side, a [portion for] Naphtali.
  • EZE-48:4 And by the border of Naphtali, from the east side unto
  • the west
  • side, a [portion for] Manasseh.
  • EZE-48:5 And by the border of Manasseh, from the east side unto
  • the west
  • side, a [portion for] Ephraim.
  • EZE-48:6 And by the border of Ephraim, from the east side even
  • unto the west
  • side, a [portion for] Reuben.
  • EZE-48:7 And by the border of Reuben, from the east side unto
  • the west side,
  • a [portion for] Judah.
  • EZE-48:8 And by the border of Judah, from the east side unto
  • the west side,
  • shall be the offering which ye shall offer of five and twenty
  • thousand [reeds
  • in] breadth, and [in] length as one of the [other] parts, from
  • the east side
  • unto the west side: and the sanctuary shall be in the midst of
  • it.
  • EZE-48:9 The oblation that ye shall offer unto the LORD [shall
  • be] of five
  • and twenty thousand in length, and of ten thousand in breadth.
  • EZE-48:10 And for them, [even] for the priests, shall be [this]
  • holy
  • oblation; toward the north five and twenty thousand [in length],
  • and toward
  • the west ten thousand in breadth, and toward the east ten
  • thousand in breadth,
  • and toward the south five and twenty thousand in length: and the
  • sanctuary of
  • the LORD shall be in the midst thereof.
  • EZE-48:11 [It shall be] for the priests that are sanctified of
  • the sons of
  • Zadok; which have kept my charge, which went not astray when the
  • children of
  • Israel went astray, as the Levites went astray.
  • EZE-48:12 And [this] oblation of the land that is offered shall
  • be unto them
  • a thing most holy by the border of the Levites.
  • EZE-48:13 And over against the border of the priests the
  • Levites [shall have]
  • five and twenty thousand in length, and ten thousand in breadth:
  • all the
  • length [shall be] five and twenty thousand, and the breadth ten
  • thousand.
  • EZE-48:14 And they shall not sell of it, neither exchange, nor
  • alienate the
  • firstfruits of the land: for [it is] holy unto the LORD.
  • EZE-48:15 And the five thousand, that are left in the breadth
  • over against
  • the five and twenty thousand, shall be a profane [place] for the
  • city, for
  • dwelling, and for suburbs: and the city shall be in the midst
  • thereof.
  • EZE-48:16 And these [shall be] the measures thereof; the north
  • side four
  • thousand and five hundred, and the south side four thousand and
  • five hundred,
  • and on the east side four thousand and five hundred, and the
  • west side four
  • thousand and five hundred.
  • EZE-48:17 And the suburbs of the city shall be toward the north
  • two hundred
  • and fifty, and toward the south two hundred and fifty, and
  • toward the east two
  • hundred and fifty, and toward the west two hundred and fifty.
  • EZE-48:18 And the residue in length over against the oblation
  • of the holy
  • [portion shall be] ten thousand eastward, and ten thousand
  • westward: and it
  • shall be over against the oblation of the holy [portion]; and
  • the increase
  • thereof shall be for food unto them that serve the city.
  • EZE-48:19 And they that serve the city shall serve it out of
  • all the tribes
  • of Israel.
  • EZE-48:20 All the oblation [shall be] five and twenty thousand
  • by five and
  • twenty thousand: ye shall offer the holy oblation foursquare,
  • with the
  • possession of the city.
  • EZE-48:21 And the residue [shall be] for the prince, on the one
  • side and on
  • the other of the holy oblation, and of the possession of the
  • city, over
  • against the five and twenty thousand of the oblation toward the
  • east border,
  • and westward over against the five and twenty thousand toward

  • and the sanctuary of the house [shall be] in the midst thereof.
  • EZE-48:22 Moreover from the possession of the Levites, and from
  • the
  • possession of the city, [being] in the midst [of that] which is
  • the prince's,
  • between the border of Judah and the border of Benjamin, shall be
  • for the
