26~EZEKIEL 001|001` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 001|002` In the fifth day of the month, which was the fifth year of king Jehoiachin's captivity,

26~EZEKIEL 001|003` The word of the Lord came expressly to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 001|004` 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 color of amber, out of the midst of the fire.

26~EZEKIEL 001|005` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 001|006` And every one had four faces, and every one had four wings.

26~EZEKIEL 001|007` 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 color of burnished brass.

26~EZEKIEL 001|008` And they had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides; and they four had their faces and their wings.

26~EZEKIEL 001|009` Their wings were joined one to another; they turned not when they went; they went every one straight forward.

26~EZEKIEL 001|010` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 001|011` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 001|012` And they went every one straight forward: whither the spirit was to go, they went; and they turned not when they went.

26~EZEKIEL 001|013` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 001|014` And the living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning.

26~EZEKIEL 001|015` Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold one wheel upon the earth by the living creatures, with his four faces.

26~EZEKIEL 001|016` The appearance of the wheels and their work was like to the color 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.

26~EZEKIEL 001|017` When they went, they went upon their four sides: and they turned not when they went.

26~EZEKIEL 001|018` As for their rings, they were so high that they were dreadful; and their rings were full of eyes round about them four.

26~EZEKIEL 001|019` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 001|020` Whithersoever the spirit was to go, they went, there 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.

26~EZEKIEL 001|021` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 001|022` And the likeness of the sky upon the heads of the living creature was as the color of the terrible crystal, stretched forth over their heads above.

26~EZEKIEL 001|023` And under the sky 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.

26~EZEKIEL 001|024` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 001|025` And there was a voice from the sky that was over their heads, when they stood, and had let down their wings.

26~EZEKIEL 001|026` And above the sky 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.

26~EZEKIEL 001|027` And I saw as the color 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.

26~EZEKIEL 001|028` 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 spoke.

26~EZEKIEL 002|001` And he said to me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak to you.

26~EZEKIEL 002|002` And the spirit entered into me when he spoke to me, and set me upon my feet, that I heard him that spoke to me.

26~EZEKIEL 002|003` And he said to me, Son of man, I send you to the children of Israel, to a rebellious nation that hath rebelled against me: they and their fathers have transgressed against me, even to this very day.

26~EZEKIEL 002|004` For they are impudent children and stiffhearted. I do send you to them; and you shalt say to them, Thus saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 002|005` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 002|006` And you, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns be with you, and you dost dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious house.

26~EZEKIEL 002|007` And you shalt speak my words to them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear: for they are most rebellious.

26~EZEKIEL 002|008` But you, son of man, hear what I say to you; Be not you rebellious like that rebellious house: open thy mouth, and eat that I give you.

26~EZEKIEL 002|009` And when I looked, behold, an hand was sent to me; and, lo, a roll of a book was therein;

26~EZEKIEL 002|010` And he spread it before me; and it was written within and without: and there was written therein lamentations, and mourning, and woe.

26~EZEKIEL 003|001` Moreover he said to me, Son of man, eat that you findest; eat this roll, and go speak to the house of Israel.

26~EZEKIEL 003|002` So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat that roll.

26~EZEKIEL 003|003` And he said to me, Son of man, cause thy belly to eat, and fill thy bowels with this roll that I give you. Then did I eat it; and it was in my mouth as honey for sweetness.

26~EZEKIEL 003|004` And he said to me, Son of man, go, get you to the house of Israel, and speak with my words to them.

26~EZEKIEL 003|005` For you art not sent to a people of a strange speech and of an hard language, but to the house of Israel;

26~EZEKIEL 003|006` Not to many people of a strange speech and of an hard language, whose words you canst not understand. Surely, had I sent you to them, they would have hearkened to you.

26~EZEKIEL 003|007` But the house of Israel will not hearken to you; for they will not hearken to me: for all the house of Israel are impudent and hardhearted.

26~EZEKIEL 003|008` Behold, I have made thy face strong against their faces, and thy forehead strong against their foreheads.

26~EZEKIEL 003|009` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 003|010` Moreover he said to me, Son of man, all my words that I shall speak to you receive in yours heart, and hear with yours ears.

26~EZEKIEL 003|011` And go, get you to them of the captivity, to the children of thy people, and speak to them, and tell them, Thus saith the Lord God; whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.

26~EZEKIEL 003|012` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 003|013` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 003|014` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 003|015` Then I came to them of the captivity at Telabib, that lived by the river of Chebar, and I sat where they sat, and remained there astonished among them seven days.

26~EZEKIEL 003|016` And it came to pass at the end of seven days, that the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 003|017` Son of man, I have made you a watchman to the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me.

26~EZEKIEL 003|018` When I say to the wicked, You shalt surely die; and you givest him not warning, nor speaks 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 yours hand.

26~EZEKIEL 003|019` Yet if you warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but you hast delivered thy soul.

26~EZEKIEL 003|020` Again, When a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumbling block before him, he shall die: because you 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 yours hand.

26~EZEKIEL 003|021` Nevertheless if you warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he is warned; also you hast delivered thy soul.

26~EZEKIEL 003|022` And the hand of the Lord was there upon me; and he said to me, Arise, go forth into the plain, and I will there talk with you.

26~EZEKIEL 003|023` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 003|024` Then the spirit entered into me, and set me upon my feet, and spoke with me, and said to me, Go, shut thyself within yours house.

26~EZEKIEL 003|025` But you, O son of man, behold, they shall put bands upon you, and shall bind you with them, and you shalt not go out among them:

26~EZEKIEL 003|026` And I will make thy tongue cleave to the roof of thy mouth, that you shalt be dumb, and shalt not be to them a reprover: for they are a rebellious house.

26~EZEKIEL 003|027` But when I speak with you, I will open thy mouth, and you shalt say to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 004|001` You also, son of man, take you a tile, and lay it before you, and pourtray upon it the city, even Jerusalem:

26~EZEKIEL 004|002` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 004|003` Moreover take you to you an iron pan, and set it for a wall of iron between you and the city: and set thy face against it, and it shall be besieged, and you shalt lay siege against it. This shall be a sign to the house of Israel.

26~EZEKIEL 004|004` Lie you also upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it: according to the number of the days that you shalt lie upon it you shalt bear their iniquity.

26~EZEKIEL 004|005` For I have laid upon you the years of their iniquity, according to the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days: so shalt you bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.

26~EZEKIEL 004|006` And when you hast accomplished them, lie again on thy right side, and you shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: I have appointed you each day for a year.

26~EZEKIEL 004|007` Therefore you shalt set thy face toward the siege of Jerusalem, and yours arm shall be uncovered, and you shalt prophesy against it.

26~EZEKIEL 004|008` And, behold, I will lay bands upon you, and you shalt not turn you from one side to another, till you hast ended the days of thy siege.

26~EZEKIEL 004|009` Take you also to you wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentiles, and millet, and fitches, and put them in one vessel, and make you bread thereof, according to the number of the days that you shalt lie upon thy side, three hundred and ninety days shalt you eat

26~EZEKIEL 004|010` And thy meat which you shalt eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels a day: from time to time shalt you eat it.

26~EZEKIEL 004|011` You shalt drink also water by measure, the sixth part of an hin: from time to time shalt you drink.

26~EZEKIEL 004|012` And you shalt eat it as barley cakes, and you shalt bake it with dung that comes out of man, in their sight.

26~EZEKIEL 004|013` And the Lord said, Even thus shall the children of Israel eat their defiled bread among the Gentiles, whither I will drive them.

26~EZEKIEL 004|014` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 004|015` Then he said to me, Lo, I have given you cow's dung for man's dung, and you shalt prepare thy bread therewith.

26~EZEKIEL 004|016` Moreover he said to 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:

26~EZEKIEL 004|017` That they may want bread and water, and be astonied one with another, and consume away for their iniquity.

26~EZEKIEL 005|001` And you, son of man, take you a sharp knife, take you a barber's rasor, and cause it to pass upon yours head and upon thy beard: then take you balances to weigh, and divide the hair.

26~EZEKIEL 005|002` You shalt burn with fire a third part in the midst of the city, when the days of the siege are fulfilled: and you shalt take a third part, and smite about it with a knife: and a third part you shalt scatter in the wind; and I will draw out a sword after the

26~EZEKIEL 005|003` You shalt also take thereof a few in number, and bind them in thy skirts.

26~EZEKIEL 005|004` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 005|005` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 005|006` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 005|007` Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Because you 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;

26~EZEKIEL 005|008` Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I, even I, am against you, and will execute judgments in the midst of you in the sight of the nations.

26~EZEKIEL 005|009` And I will do in you that which I have not done, and whereunto I will not do any more the like, because of all yours abominations.

26~EZEKIEL 005|010` Therefore the fathers shall eat the sons in the midst of you, and the sons shall eat their fathers; and I will execute judgments in you, and the whole remnant of you will I scatter into all the winds.

26~EZEKIEL 005|011` Wherefore, as I live, saith the Lord God; Surely, because you hast defiled my sanctuary with all thy detestable things, and with all yours abominations, therefore will I also diminish you; neither shall mine eye spare, neither will I have any pity.

26~EZEKIEL 005|012` A third part of you shall die with the pestilence, and with famine shall they be consumed in the midst of you: and a third part shall fall by the sword round about you; and I will scatter a third part into all the winds, and I will draw out a sword after them.

26~EZEKIEL 005|013` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 005|014` Moreover I will make you waste, and a reproach among the nations that are round about you, in the sight of all that pass by.

26~EZEKIEL 005|015` So it shall be a reproach and a taunt, an instruction and an astonishment to the nations that are round about you, when I shall execute judgments in you in anger and in fury and in furious rebukes. I the Lord have spoken it.

26~EZEKIEL 005|016` 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:

26~EZEKIEL 005|017` So will I send upon you famine and evil beasts, and they shall bereave you: and pestilence and blood shall pass through you; and I will bring the sword upon you. I the Lord have spoken it.

26~EZEKIEL 006|001` And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 006|002` Son of man, set thy face toward the mountains of Israel, and prophesy against them,

26~EZEKIEL 006|003` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 006|004` And your altars shall be desolate, and your images shall be broken: and I will cast down your slain men before your idols.

26~EZEKIEL 006|005` And I will lay the dead bodies of the children of Israel before their idols; and I will scatter your bones round about your altars.

26~EZEKIEL 006|006` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 006|007` And the slain shall fall in the midst of you, and you shall know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 006|008` Yet will I leave a remnant, that you may have some that shall escape the sword among the nations, when you shall be scattered through the countries.

26~EZEKIEL 006|009` 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 lothe themselves for the evils which they have committed in all their abominations.

26~EZEKIEL 006|010` And they shall know that I am the Lord, and that I have not said in vain that I would do this evil to them.

26~EZEKIEL 006|011` Thus saith the Lord God; Smite with yours 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.

26~EZEKIEL 006|012` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 006|013` Then shall you 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 t

26~EZEKIEL 006|014` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 007|001` Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 007|002` Also, you son of man, thus saith the Lord God to the land of Israel; An end, the end is come upon the four corners of the land.

26~EZEKIEL 007|003` Now is the end come upon you, and I will send mine anger upon you, and will judge you according to thy ways, and will recompense upon you all yours abominations.

26~EZEKIEL 007|004` And mine eye shall not spare you, neither will I have pity: but I will recompense thy ways upon you, and yours abominations shall be in the midst of you: and you shall know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 007|005` Thus saith the Lord God; An evil, an only evil, behold, is come.

26~EZEKIEL 007|006` An end is come, the end is come: it watcheth for you; behold, it is come.

26~EZEKIEL 007|007` The morning is come to you, O you that dwellest in the land: the time is come, the day of trouble is near, and not the sounding again of the mountains.

26~EZEKIEL 007|008` Now will I shortly pour out my fury upon you, and accomplish mine anger upon you: and I will judge you according to thy ways, and will recompense you for all yours abominations.

26~EZEKIEL 007|009` And mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity: I will recompense you according to thy ways and yours abominations that are in the midst of you; and you shall know that I am the Lord that assults.

26~EZEKIEL 007|010` Behold the day, behold, it is come: the morning is gone forth; the rod hath blossomed, pride hath budded.

26~EZEKIEL 007|011` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 007|012` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 007|013` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 007|014` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 007|015` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 007|016` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 007|017` All hands shall be feeble, and all knees shall be weak as water.

26~EZEKIEL 007|018` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 007|019` 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 stumbling block of their iniquity.

26~EZEKIEL 007|020` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 007|021` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 007|022` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 007|023` Make a chain: for the land is full of bloody crimes, and the city is full of violence.

26~EZEKIEL 007|024` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 007|025` Destruction comes; and they shall seek peace, and there shall be none.

26~EZEKIEL 007|026` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 007|027` 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 to them after their way, and according to their deserts will I judge them; and they shall know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 008|001` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 008|002` 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 color of amber.

26~EZEKIEL 008|003` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 008|004` And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel was there, according to the vision that I saw in the plain.

26~EZEKIEL 008|005` Then said he to me, Son of man, lift up yours 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.

26~EZEKIEL 008|006` He said furthermore to me, Son of man, sees you what they do? even the great abominations that the house of Israel commits here, that I should go far off from my sanctuary? but turn you yet again, and you shalt see greater abominations.

26~EZEKIEL 008|007` And he brought me to the door of the court; and when I looked, behold a hole in the wall.

26~EZEKIEL 008|008` Then said he to me, Son of man, dig now in the wall: and when I had digged in the wall, behold a door.

26~EZEKIEL 008|009` And he said to me, Go in, and behold the wicked abominations that they do here.

26~EZEKIEL 008|010` 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, pourtrayed upon the wall round about.

26~EZEKIEL 008|011` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 008|012` Then said he to me, Son of man, hast you 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 sees us not; the Lord hath forsaken the earth.

26~EZEKIEL 008|013` He said also to me, Turn you yet again, and you shalt see greater abominations that they do.

26~EZEKIEL 008|014` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 008|015` Then said he to me, Have you seen this, O son of man? turn you yet again, and you shalt see greater abominations than these.

26~EZEKIEL 008|016` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 008|017` Then he said to me, Have you 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 t

26~EZEKIEL 008|018` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 009|001` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 009|002` 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 brasen altar.

26~EZEKIEL 009|003` 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;

26~EZEKIEL 009|004` And the Lord said to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 009|005` And to the others he said in mine hearing, Go you after him through the city, and smite: let not your eye spare, neither have you pity:

26~EZEKIEL 009|006` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 009|007` And he said to them, Defile the house, and fill the courts with the slain: go you forth. And they went forth, and slew in the city.

26~EZEKIEL 009|008` 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 you destroy all the residue of Israel in thy pouring out of thy fury upon Jerusalem?

26~EZEKIEL 009|009` Then said he to 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 sees not.

26~EZEKIEL 009|010` And as for me also, mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity, but I will recompense their way upon their head.

26~EZEKIEL 009|011` And, behold, the man clothed with linen, which had the inkhorn by his side, reported the matter, saying, I have done as you hast commanded me.

26~EZEKIEL 010|001` Then I looked, and, behold, in the sky that was above the head of the angle there appeared over them as it were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne.

26~EZEKIEL 010|002` And he spoke to the man clothed with linen, and said, Go in between the wheels, even under the cherub, and fill yours hand with coals of fire from between the angle, and scatter them over the city. And he went in my sight.

26~EZEKIEL 010|003` Now the angle stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.

26~EZEKIEL 010|004` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 010|005` And the sound of the cherubims' wings was heard even to the outer court, as the voice of the Almighty God when he speaks.

26~EZEKIEL 010|006` 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 angle; then he went in, and stood beside the wheels.

26~EZEKIEL 010|007` And one cherub stretched forth his hand from between the angle to the fire that was between the angle, and took thereof, and put it into the hands of him that was clothed with linen: who took it, and went out.

26~EZEKIEL 010|008` And there appeared in the angle the form of a man's hand under their wings.

26~EZEKIEL 010|009` And when I looked, behold the four wheels by the angle, one wheel by one cherub, and another wheel by another cherub: and the appearance of the wheels was as the color of a beryl stone.

26~EZEKIEL 010|010` And as for their appearances, they four had one likeness, as if a wheel had been in the midst of a wheel.

26~EZEKIEL 010|011` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 010|012` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 010|013` As for the wheels, it was cried to them in my hearing, O wheel.

26~EZEKIEL 010|014` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 010|015` And the angle were lifted up. This is the living creature that I saw by the river of Chebar.

26~EZEKIEL 010|016` And when the angle went, the wheels went by them: and when the angle lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the same wheels also turned not from beside them.

26~EZEKIEL 010|017` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 010|018` Then the glory of the Lord departed from off the threshold of the house, and stood over the angle.

26~EZEKIEL 010|019` And the angle 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.

26~EZEKIEL 010|020` 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 angle.

26~EZEKIEL 010|021` Every one had four faces apiece, and every one four wings; and the likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings.

26~EZEKIEL 010|022` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 011|001` Moreover the spirit lifted me up, and brought me to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 011|002` Then said he to me, Son of man, these are the men that devise mischief, and give wicked counsel in this city:

26~EZEKIEL 011|003` Which say, It is not near; let us build houses: this city is the caldron, and we be the flesh.

26~EZEKIEL 011|004` Therefore prophesy against them, prophesy, O son of man.

26~EZEKIEL 011|005` And the Spirit of the Lord fell upon me, and said to me, Speak; Thus saith the Lord; Thus have you said, O house of Israel: for I know the things that come into your mind, every one of them.

26~EZEKIEL 011|006` Ye have multiplied your slain in this city, and you have filled the streets thereof with the slain.

26~EZEKIEL 011|007` Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Your slain whom you 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.

26~EZEKIEL 011|008` Ye have feared the sword; and I will bring a sword upon you, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 011|009` And I will bring you out of the midst thereof, and deliver you into the hands of strangers, and will execute judgments among you.

26~EZEKIEL 011|010` Ye shall fall by the sword; I will judge you in the border of Israel; and you shall know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 011|011` This city shall not be your caldron, neither shall you be the flesh in the midst thereof; but I will judge you in the border of Israel:

26~EZEKIEL 011|012` And you shall know that I am the Lord: for you have not walked in my statutes, neither executed my judgments, but have done after the manners of the heathen that are round about you.

26~EZEKIEL 011|013` 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 you make a full end of the remnant of Israel?

26~EZEKIEL 011|014` Again the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 011|015` Son of man, thy brethren, even thy brethren, the men of thy realitives, and all the house of Israel wholly, are they to whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, Get you far from the Lord: to us is this land given in possession.

26~EZEKIEL 011|016` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 011|017` Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord God; I will even gather you from the people, and assemble you out of the countries where you have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.

26~EZEKIEL 011|018` And they shall come there, and they shall take away all the detestable things thereof and all the abominations thereof from there.

26~EZEKIEL 011|019` 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:

26~EZEKIEL 011|020` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 011|021` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 011|022` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 011|023` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 011|024` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 011|025` Then I spoke to them of the captivity all the things that the Lord had shewed me.

26~EZEKIEL 012|001` The word of the Lord also came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 012|002` Son of man, you 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.

26~EZEKIEL 012|003` Therefore, you son of man, prepare you stuff for removing, and remove by day in their sight; and you shalt remove from thy place to another place in their sight: it may be they will consider, though they be a rebellious house.

26~EZEKIEL 012|004` Then shalt you bring forth thy stuff by day in their sight, as stuff for removing: and you shalt go forth at even in their sight, as they that go forth into captivity.

26~EZEKIEL 012|005` Dig you through the wall in their sight, and carry out thereby.

26~EZEKIEL 012|006` In their sight shalt you bear it upon thy shoulders, and carry it forth in the twilight: you shalt cover thy face, that you see not the ground: for I have set you for a sign to the house of Israel.

26~EZEKIEL 012|007` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 012|008` And in the morning came the word of the Lord to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 012|009` Son of man, hath not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said to you, What doest you?

26~EZEKIEL 012|010` Say you to them, Thus saith the Lord God; This burden concerns the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel that are among them.

26~EZEKIEL 012|011` Say, I am your sign: like as I have done, so shall it be done to them: they shall remove and go into captivity.

26~EZEKIEL 012|012` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 012|013` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 012|014` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 012|015` And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall scatter them among the nations, and disperse them in the countries.

26~EZEKIEL 012|016` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 012|017` Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 012|018` Son of man, eat thy bread with quaking, and drink thy water with trembling and with carefulness;

26~EZEKIEL 012|019` And say to 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, becau

26~EZEKIEL 012|020` And the cities that are inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land shall be desolate; and you shall know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 012|021` And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 012|022` Son of man, what is that proverb that you have in the land of Israel, saying, The days are prolonged, and every vision faileth?

26~EZEKIEL 012|023` 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 to them, The days are at hand, and the effect of every vision.

26~EZEKIEL 012|024` For there shall be no more any vain vision nor flattering divination within the house of Israel.

26~EZEKIEL 012|025` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 012|026` Again the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 012|027` Son of man, behold, they of the house of Israel say, The vision that he sees is for many days to come, and he prophesieth of the times that are far off.

26~EZEKIEL 012|028` Therefore say to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 013|001` And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 013|002` Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel that prophesy, and say you to them that prophesy out of their own hearts, Hear you the word of the Lord;

26~EZEKIEL 013|003` Thus saith the Lord God; Woe to the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing!

26~EZEKIEL 013|004` O Israel, thy prophets are like the foxes in the deserts.

26~EZEKIEL 013|005` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 013|006` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 013|007` Have you not seen a vain vision, and have you not spoken a lying divination, whereas you say, The Lord saith it; albeit I have not spoken?

26~EZEKIEL 013|008` Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Because you have spoken vanity, and seen lies, therefore, behold, I am against you, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 013|009` 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 you shall know that I am the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 013|010` 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 morter:

26~EZEKIEL 013|011` Say to them which daub it with untempered morter, that it shall fall: there shall be an overflowing shower; and you, O great hailstones, shall fall; and a stormy wind shall rend it.

26~EZEKIEL 013|012` Lo, when the wall is fallen, shall it not be said to you, Where is the daubing where with you have daubed it?

26~EZEKIEL 013|013` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 013|014` So will I break down the wall that you have daubed with untempered morter, and bring it down to the ground, so that the foundation thereof shall be discovered, and it shall fall, and you shall be consumed in the midst thereof: and you shall know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 013|015` Thus will I accomplish my wrath upon the wall, and upon them that have daubed it with untempered morter, and will say to you, The wall is no more, neither they that daubed it;

26~EZEKIEL 013|016` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 013|017` Likewise, you son of man, set thy face against the daughters of thy people, which prophesy out of their own heart; and prophesy you against them,

26~EZEKIEL 013|018` 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 you hunt the souls of my people, and will you save the souls alive that come to you?

26~EZEKIEL 013|019` And will you 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?

26~EZEKIEL 013|020` Wherefore thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against your pillows, where with you 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 you hunt to make them fly.

26~EZEKIEL 013|021` 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 you shall know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 013|022` Because with lies you 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:

26~EZEKIEL 013|023` Therefore you shall see no more vanity, nor divine divinations: for I will deliver my people out of your hand: and you shall know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 014|001` Then came certain of the elders of Israel to me, and sat before me.

26~EZEKIEL 014|002` And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 014|003` Son of man, these men have set up their idols in their heart, and put the stumbling block of their iniquity before their face: should I be inquired of at all by them?

26~EZEKIEL 014|004` Therefore speak to them, and say to them, Thus saith the Lord God; Every man of the house of Israel that setteth up his idols in his heart, and putteth the stumbling block of his iniquity before his face, and comes to the prophet; I the Lord will answer him that comes acc

26~EZEKIEL 014|005` That I may take the house of Israel in their own heart, because they are all estranged from me through their idols.

26~EZEKIEL 014|006` Therefore say to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 014|007` For every one of the house of Israel, or of the stranger that travels in Israel, which separateth himself from me, and setteth up his idols in his heart, and putteth the stumbling block of his iniquity before his face, and comes to a prophet to inquire of him concerning me; I the Lord will answer him by myself:

26~EZEKIEL 014|008` 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 you shall know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 014|009` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 014|010` And they shall bear the punishment of their iniquity: the punishment of the prophet shall be even as the punishment of him that seeks to him;

26~EZEKIEL 014|011` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 014|012` The word of the Lord came again to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 014|013` 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:

26~EZEKIEL 014|014` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 014|015` 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:

26~EZEKIEL 014|016` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 014|017` 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:

26~EZEKIEL 014|018` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 014|019` 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:

26~EZEKIEL 014|020` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 014|021` 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?

26~EZEKIEL 014|022` Yet, behold, therein shall be left a remnant that shall be brought forth, both sons and daughters: behold, they shall come forth to you, and you shall see their way and their doings: and you shall be comforted concerning the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, even concerning all that I have brought upon it.

26~EZEKIEL 014|023` And they shall comfort you, when you see their ways and their doings: and you shall know that I have not done without cause all that I have done in it, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 015|001` And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 015|002` Son of man, What is the vine tree more than any tree, or than a branch which is among the trees of the forest?

26~EZEKIEL 015|003` Shall wood be taken thereof to do any work? or will men take a pin of it to hang any vessel thereon?

26~EZEKIEL 015|004` 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?

26~EZEKIEL 015|005` 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?

26~EZEKIEL 015|006` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 015|007` And I will set my face against them; they shall go out from one fire, and another fire shall devour them; and you shall know that I am the Lord, when I set my face against them.

26~EZEKIEL 015|008` And I will make the land desolate, because they have committed a trespass, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 016|001` Again the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 016|002` Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations,

26~EZEKIEL 016|003` And say, Thus saith the Lord God to Jerusalem; Your birth and thy nativity is of the land of Canaan; thy father was an Amorite, and thy mother an Hittite.

26~EZEKIEL 016|004` And as for thy nativity, in the day you wast born thy navel was not cut, neither wast you washed in water to supple you; you wast not salted at all, nor swaddled at all.

26~EZEKIEL 016|005` None eye pitied you, to do any of these to you, to have compassion upon you; but you wast cast out in the open field, to the lothing of thy person, in the day that you wast born.

26~EZEKIEL 016|006` And when I passed by you, and saw you polluted in yours own blood, I said to you when you wast in thy blood, Live; yea, I said to you when you wast in thy blood, Live.

26~EZEKIEL 016|007` I have caused you to multiply as the bud of the field, and you hast increased and waxen great, and you art come to excellent ornaments: thy breasts are fashioned, and yours hair is grown, whereas you wast naked and bare.

26~EZEKIEL 016|008` Now when I passed by you, and looked upon you, behold, thy time was the time of love; and I spread my skirt over you, and covered thy nakedness: yea, I sware to you, and entered into a covenient with you, saith the Lord God, and you became mine.

26~EZEKIEL 016|009` Then washed I you with water; yea, I throughly washed away thy blood from you, and I anointed you with oil.

26~EZEKIEL 016|010` I clothed you also with broidered work, and shod you with badgers' skin, and I girded you about with fine linen, and I covered you with silk.

26~EZEKIEL 016|011` I decked you also with ornaments, and I put bracelets upon thy hands, and a chain on thy neck.

26~EZEKIEL 016|012` And I put a jewel on thy forehead, and earrings in yours ears, and a beautiful crown upon yours head.

26~EZEKIEL 016|013` Thus wast you decked with gold and silver; and thy raiment was of fine linen, and silk, and broidered work; you didst eat fine flour, and honey, and oil: and you wast exceeding beautiful, and you didst prosper into a kingdom.

26~EZEKIEL 016|014` And thy renown went forth among the heathen for thy beauty: for it was perfect through my comeliness, which I had put upon you, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 016|015` But you didst trust in yours own beauty, and playedst the harlot because of thy renown, and pouredst out thy fornications on every one that passed by; his it was.

26~EZEKIEL 016|016` And of thy garments you didst take, and deckedst thy high places with divers colors, and playedst the harlot thereupon: the like things shall not come, neither shall it be so.

26~EZEKIEL 016|017` You hast also taken thy fair jewels of my gold and of my silver, which I had given you, and madest to thyself images of men, and didst commit whoredom with them,

26~EZEKIEL 016|018` And tookest thy broidered garments, and coveredst them: and you hast set mine oil and mine incense before them.

26~EZEKIEL 016|019` My meat also which I gave you, fine flour, and oil, and honey, where with I fed you, you hast even set it before them for a sweet savour: and thus it was, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 016|020` Moreover you hast taken thy sons and thy daughters, whom you hast borne to me, and these hast you sacrificed to them to be devoured. Is this of thy whoredoms a small matter,

26~EZEKIEL 016|021` That you hast slain my children, and delivered them to cause them to pass through the fire for them?

26~EZEKIEL 016|022` And in all yours abominations and thy whoredoms you hast not remembered the days of thy youth, when you wast naked and bare, and wast polluted in thy blood.

26~EZEKIEL 016|023` And it came to pass after all thy wickedness, (woe, woe to you! saith the Lord God;)

26~EZEKIEL 016|024` That you hast also built to you an eminent place, and hast made you an high place in every street.

26~EZEKIEL 016|025` You 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.

26~EZEKIEL 016|026` You hast also committed fornication with the Egyptians thy neighbours, great of flesh; and hast increased thy whoredoms, to provoke me to anger.

26~EZEKIEL 016|027` Behold, therefore I have stretched out my hand over you, and have diminished yours ordinary food, and delivered you to the will of them that hate you, the daughters of the Philistines, which are ashamed of thy lewd way.

26~EZEKIEL 016|028` You hast played the whore also with the Assyrians, because you wast unsatiable; yea, you hast played the harlot with them, and yet couldest not be satisfied.

26~EZEKIEL 016|029` You hast moreover multiplied thy fornication in the land of Canaan to Chaldea; and yet you wast not satisfied herewith.

26~EZEKIEL 016|030` How weak is yours heart, saith the Lord God, seeing you doest all these things, the work of an imperious whorish woman;

26~EZEKIEL 016|031` In that you build yours eminent place in the head of every way, and makest yours high place in every street; and hast not been as an harlot, in that you scorns hire;

26~EZEKIEL 016|032` But as a wife that commits adultery, which takes strangers instead of her husband!

26~EZEKIEL 016|033` They give gifts to all whores: but you givest thy gifts to all thy lovers, and hirest them, that they may come to you on every side for thy whoredom.

26~EZEKIEL 016|034` And the contrary is in you from other women in thy whoredoms, whereas none followeth you to commit whoredoms: and in that you givest a reward, and no reward is given to you, therefore you art contrary.

26~EZEKIEL 016|035` Wherefore, O harlot, hear the word of the Lord:

26~EZEKIEL 016|036` 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 you didst give to them;

26~EZEKIEL 016|037` Behold, therefore I will gather all thy lovers, with whom you hast taken pleasure, and all them that you hast loved, with all them that you hast hated; I will even gather them round about against you, and will discover thy nakedness to them, that they may see all thy nakedness.

26~EZEKIEL 016|038` And I will judge you, as women that break wedlock and shed blood are judged; and I will give you blood in fury and jealousy.

26~EZEKIEL 016|039` And I will also give you into their hand, and they shall throw down yours eminent place, and shall break down thy high places: they shall strip you also of thy clothes, and shall take thy fair jewels, and leave you naked and bare.

26~EZEKIEL 016|040` They shall also bring up a company against you, and they shall stone you with stones, and thrust you through with their swords.

26~EZEKIEL 016|041` And they shall burn yours houses with fire, and execute judgments upon you in the sight of many women: and I will cause you to cease from playing the harlot, and you also shalt give no hire any more.

26~EZEKIEL 016|042` So will I make my fury toward you to rest, and my jealousy shall depart from you, and I will be quiet, and will be no more angry.

26~EZEKIEL 016|043` Because you 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 yours head, saith the Lord God: and you shalt not commit this lewdness above all yours abominations.

26~EZEKIEL 016|044` Behold, every one that useth proverbs shall use this proverb against you, saying, As is the mother, so is her daughter.

26~EZEKIEL 016|045` You art thy mother's daughter, that lotheth her husband and her children; and you art the sister of thy sisters, which lothed their husbands and their children: your mother was an Hittite, and your father an Amorite.

26~EZEKIEL 016|046` And yours 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.

26~EZEKIEL 016|047` Yet hast you not walked after their ways, nor done after their abominations: but, as if that were a very little thing, you wast corrupted more than they in all thy ways.

26~EZEKIEL 016|048` As I live, saith the Lord God, Sodom thy sister hath not done, she nor her daughters, as you hast done, you and thy daughters.

26~EZEKIEL 016|049` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 016|050` And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw good.

26~EZEKIEL 016|051` Neither hath Samaria committed half of thy sins; but you hast multiplied yours abominations more than they, and hast justified thy sisters in all yours abominations which you hast done.

26~EZEKIEL 016|052` You also, which hast judged thy sisters, bear yours own shame for thy sins that you hast committed more abominable than they: they are more righteous than you: yea, be you confounded also, and bear thy shame, in that you hast justified thy sisters.

26~EZEKIEL 016|053` 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:

26~EZEKIEL 016|054` That you mayest bear yours own shame, and mayest be confounded in all that you hast done, in that you art a comfort to them.

26~EZEKIEL 016|055` 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 you and thy daughters shall return to your former estate.

26~EZEKIEL 016|056` For thy sister Sodom was not mentioned by thy mouth in the day of thy pride,

26~EZEKIEL 016|057` 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 you round about.

26~EZEKIEL 016|058` You hast borne thy lewdness and yours abominations, saith the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 016|059` For thus saith the Lord God; I will even deal with you as you hast done, which hast despised the oath in breaking the covenient.

26~EZEKIEL 016|060` Nevertheless I will remember my covenient with you in the days of thy youth, and I will establish to you an everlasting covenient.

26~EZEKIEL 016|061` Then you shalt remember thy ways, and be ashamed, when you shalt receive thy sisters, yours elder and thy younger: and I will give them to you for daughters, but not by thy covenient.

26~EZEKIEL 016|062` And I will establish my covenient with you; and you shalt know that I am the Lord:

26~EZEKIEL 016|063` That you mayest remember, and be confounded, and never open thy mouth any more because of thy shame, when I am pacified toward you for all that you hast done, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 017|001` And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 017|002` Son of man, put forth a riddle, and speak a parable to the house of Israel;

26~EZEKIEL 017|003` And say, Thus saith the Lord God; A great eagle with great wings, longwinged, full of feathers, which had divers colors, came to Lebanon, and took the highest branch of the cedar:

26~EZEKIEL 017|004` He cropped off the top of his young twigs, and carried it into a land of traffick; he set it in a city of merchants.

26~EZEKIEL 017|005` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 017|006` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 017|007` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 017|008` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 017|009` Say you, 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

26~EZEKIEL 017|010` You, 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.

26~EZEKIEL 017|011` Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 017|012` Say now to the rebellious house, Know you 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;

26~EZEKIEL 017|013` And hath taken of the king's seed, and made a covenient with him, and hath taken an oath of him: he hath also taken the mighty of the land:

26~EZEKIEL 017|014` That the kingdom might be base, that it might not lift itself up, but that by keeping of his covenient it might stand.

26~EZEKIEL 017|015` 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 covenient, and be delivered?

26~EZEKIEL 017|016` 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 covenient he brake, even with him in the midst of Babylon he shall die.

26~EZEKIEL 017|017` 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:

26~EZEKIEL 017|018` Seeing he despised the oath by breaking the covenient, when, lo, he had given his hand, and hath done all these things, he shall not escape.

26~EZEKIEL 017|019` Therefore thus saith the Lord God; As I live, surely mine oath that he hath despised, and my covenient that he hath broken, even it will I recompense upon his own head.

26~EZEKIEL 017|020` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 017|021` And all his fugitives with all his bands shall fall by the sword, and they that remain shall be scattered toward all winds: and you shall know that I the Lord have spoken it.

26~EZEKIEL 017|022` 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:

26~EZEKIEL 017|023` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 017|024` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 018|001` The word of the Lord came to me again, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 018|002` What mean you, that you use this proverb concerning the land of Israel, saying, The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children's teeth are set on edge?

26~EZEKIEL 018|003` As I live, saith the Lord God, you shall not have occasion any more to use this proverb in Israel.

26~EZEKIEL 018|004` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 018|005` But if a man be just, and do that which is lawful and right,

26~EZEKIEL 018|006` 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,

26~EZEKIEL 018|007` 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;

26~EZEKIEL 018|008` 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,

26~EZEKIEL 018|009` Hath walked in my statutes, and hath kept my judgments, to deal truly; he is just, he shall surely live, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 018|010` If he beget a son that is a robber, a shedder of blood, and that doeth the like to any one of these things,

26~EZEKIEL 018|011` And that doeth not any of those duties, but even hath eaten upon the mountains, and defiled his neighbour's wife,

26~EZEKIEL 018|012` 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,

26~EZEKIEL 018|013` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 018|014` Now, lo, if he beget a son, that sees all his father's sins which he hath done, and considers, and doeth not such like,

26~EZEKIEL 018|015` 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,

26~EZEKIEL 018|016` 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,

26~EZEKIEL 018|017` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 018|018` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 018|019` Yet say you, 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.

26~EZEKIEL 018|020` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 018|021` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 018|022` All his transgressions that he hath committed, they shall not be mentioned to him: in his righteousness that he hath done he shall live.

26~EZEKIEL 018|023` 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?

26~EZEKIEL 018|024` But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and commits 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 d

26~EZEKIEL 018|025` Yet you 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?

26~EZEKIEL 018|026` When a righteous man turneth away from his righteousness, and commits iniquity, and dieth in them; for his iniquity that he hath done shall he die.

26~EZEKIEL 018|027` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 018|028` Because he considers, and turneth away from all his transgressions that he hath committed, he shall surely live, he shall not die.

26~EZEKIEL 018|029` 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?

26~EZEKIEL 018|030` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 018|031` Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby you have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will you die, O house of Israel?

26~EZEKIEL 018|032` For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord God: wherefore turn yourselves, and live you.

26~EZEKIEL 019|001` Moreover take you up a lamentation for the princes of Israel,

26~EZEKIEL 019|002` And say, What is thy mother? A lioness: she lay down among lions, she nourished her whelps among young lions.

26~EZEKIEL 019|003` And she brought up one of her whelps: it became a young lion, and it learned to catch the prey; it devoured men.

26~EZEKIEL 019|004` The nations also heard of him; he was taken in their pit, and they brought him with chains to the land of Egypt.

26~EZEKIEL 019|005` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 019|006` And he went up and down among the lions, he became a young lion, and learned to catch the prey, and devoured men.

26~EZEKIEL 019|007` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 019|008` Then the nations set against him on every side from the provinces, and spread their net over him: he was taken in their pit.

26~EZEKIEL 019|009` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 019|010` Your mother is like a vine in thy blood, planted by the waters: she was fruitful and full of branches by reason of many waters.

26~EZEKIEL 019|011` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 019|012` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 019|013` And now she is planted in the wilderness, in a dry and thirsty ground.

26~EZEKIEL 019|014` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 020|001` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 020|002` Then came the word of the Lord to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 020|003` Son of man, speak to the elders of Israel, and say to them, Thus saith the Lord God; Are you come to inquire of me? As I live, saith the Lord God, I will not be inquired of by you.

26~EZEKIEL 020|004` Wilt you judge them, son of man, wilt you judge them? cause them to know the abominations of their fathers:

26~EZEKIEL 020|005` And say to them, Thus saith the Lord God; In the day when I chose Israel, and lifted up mine hand to the seed of the house of Jacob, and made myself known to them in the land of Egypt, when I lifted up mine hand to them, saying, I am the Lord your God;

26~EZEKIEL 020|006` In the day that I lifted up mine hand to 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:

26~EZEKIEL 020|007` Then said I to them, Cast you away every man the abominations of his eyes, and defile not yourselves with the idols of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.

26~EZEKIEL 020|008` But they rebelled against me, and would not hearken to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 020|009` 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 to them, in bringing them forth out of the land of Egypt.

26~EZEKIEL 020|010` Wherefore I caused them to go forth out of the land of Egypt, and brought them into the wilderness.

26~EZEKIEL 020|011` And I gave them my statutes, and shewed them my judgments, which if a man do, he shall even live in them.

26~EZEKIEL 020|012` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 020|013` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 020|014` But I wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be polluted before the heathen, in whose sight I brought them out.

26~EZEKIEL 020|015` Yet also I lifted up my hand to 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;

26~EZEKIEL 020|016` Because they despised my judgments, and walked not in my statutes, but polluted my sabbaths: for their heart went after their idols.

26~EZEKIEL 020|017` Nevertheless mine eye spared them from destroying them, neither did I make an end of them in the wilderness.

26~EZEKIEL 020|018` But I said to their children in the wilderness, Walk you not in the statutes of your fathers, neither observe their judgments, nor defile yourselves with their idols:

26~EZEKIEL 020|019` I am the Lord your God; walk in my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them;

26~EZEKIEL 020|020` And hallow my sabbaths; and they shall be a sign between me and you, that you may know that I am the Lord your God.

26~EZEKIEL 020|021` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 020|022` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 020|023` I lifted up mine hand to them also in the wilderness, that I would scatter them among the heathen, and disperse them through the countries;

26~EZEKIEL 020|024` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 020|025` Wherefore I gave them also statutes that were not good, and judgments whereby they should not live;

26~EZEKIEL 020|026` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 020|027` Therefore, son of man, speak to the house of Israel, and say to them, Thus saith the Lord God; Yet in this your fathers have blasphemed me, in that they have committed a trespass against me.

26~EZEKIEL 020|028` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 020|029` Then I said to them, What is the high place whereunto you go? And the name thereof is called Bamah to this day.

26~EZEKIEL 020|030` Wherefore say to the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord God; Are you polluted after the manner of your fathers? and commit you whoredom after their abominations?

26~EZEKIEL 020|031` For when you offer your gifts, when you make your sons to pass through the fire, you pollute yourselves with all your idols, even to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 020|032` And that which comes into your mind shall not be at all, that you say, We will be as the heathen, as the families of the countries, to serve wood and stone.

26~EZEKIEL 020|033` 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:

26~EZEKIEL 020|034` And I will bring you out from the people, and will gather you out of the countries wherein you are scattered, with a mighty hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with fury poured out.

26~EZEKIEL 020|035` And I will bring you into the wilderness of the people, and there will I plead with you face to face.

26~EZEKIEL 020|036` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 020|037` And I will cause you to pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenient:

26~EZEKIEL 020|038` 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 you shall know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 020|039` As for you, O house of Israel, thus saith the Lord God; Go you, serve you every one his idols, and hereafter also, if you will not hearken to me: but pollute you my holy name no more with your gifts, and with your idols.

26~EZEKIEL 020|040` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 020|041` I will accept you with your sweet savour, when I bring you out from the people, and gather you out of the countries wherein you have been scattered; and I will be sanctified in you before the heathen.

26~EZEKIEL 020|042` And you 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.

26~EZEKIEL 020|043` And there shall you remember your ways, and all your doings, wherein you have been defiled; and you shall lothe yourselves in your own sight for all your evils that you have committed.

26~EZEKIEL 020|044` And you 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 you house of Israel, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 020|045` Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 020|046` 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;

26~EZEKIEL 020|047` 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 you, and it shall devour every green tree in you, and every dry tree: the flaming flame shall not be quenched, and all faces from the south to the north shall be burned therein.

26~EZEKIEL 020|048` And all flesh shall see that I the Lord have kindled it: it shall not be quenched.

26~EZEKIEL 020|049` Then said I, Ah Lord God! they say of me, Doth he not speak parables?

26~EZEKIEL 021|001` And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 021|002` Son of man, set thy face toward Jerusalem, and drop thy word toward the holy places, and prophesy against the land of Israel,

26~EZEKIEL 021|003` And say to the land of Israel, Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I am against you, and will draw forth my sword out of his sheath, and will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked.

26~EZEKIEL 021|004` Seeing then that I will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall my sword go forth out of his sheath against all flesh from the south to the north:

26~EZEKIEL 021|005` That all flesh may know that I the Lord have drawn forth my sword out of his sheath: it shall not return any more.

26~EZEKIEL 021|006` Sigh therefore, you son of man, with the breaking of thy loins; and with bitterness sigh before their eyes.

26~EZEKIEL 021|007` And it shall be, when they say to you, Wherefore sighest you? that you shalt answer, For the tidings; because it comes: 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 comes, and shall be brought to

26~EZEKIEL 021|008` Again the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 021|009` Son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus saith the Lord; Say, A sword, a sword is sharpened, and also furbished:

26~EZEKIEL 021|010` It is sharpened to make a sore slaughter; it is furbished that it may glitter: should we then make mirth? it contemns the rod of my son, as every tree.

26~EZEKIEL 021|011` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 021|012` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 021|013` Because it is a trial, and what if the sword contemn even the rod? it shall be no more, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 021|014` You therefore, son of man, prophesy, and smite yours 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.

26~EZEKIEL 021|015` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 021|016` Go you one way or other, either on the right hand, or on the left, whithersoever thy face is set.

26~EZEKIEL 021|017` I will also smite mine hands together, and I will cause my fury to rest: I the Lord have said it.

26~EZEKIEL 021|018` The word of the Lord came to me again, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 021|019` Also, you son of man, appoint you two ways, that the sword of the king of Babylon may come: both twain shall come forth out of one land: and choose you a place, choose it at the head of the way to the city.

26~EZEKIEL 021|020` Appoint a way, that the sword may come to Rabbath of the Ammonites, and to Judah in Jerusalem the defenced.

26~EZEKIEL 021|021` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 021|022` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 021|023` And it shall be to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 021|024` Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Because you 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 you are come to remembrance, you shall be taken with the hand.

26~EZEKIEL 021|025` And you, profane wicked prince of Israel, whose day is come, when iniquity shall have an end,

26~EZEKIEL 021|026` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 021|027` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 021|028` And you, son of man, prophesy and say, Thus saith the Lord God concerning the Ammonites, and concerning their reproach; even say you, The sword, the sword is drawn: for the slaughter it is furbished, to consume because of the glittering:

26~EZEKIEL 021|029` Whiles they see vanity to you, whiles they divine a lie to you, to bring you upon the necks of them that are slain, of the wicked, whose day is come, when their iniquity shall have an end.

26~EZEKIEL 021|030` Shall I cause it to return into his sheath? I will judge you in the place where you wast created, in the land of thy nativity.

26~EZEKIEL 021|031` And I will pour out mine indignation upon you, I will blow against you in the fire of my wrath, and deliver you into the hand of brutish men, and skillful to destroy.

26~EZEKIEL 021|032` You shalt be for fuel to the fire; thy blood shall be in the midst of the land; you shalt be no more remembered: for I the Lord have spoken it.

26~EZEKIEL 022|001` Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 022|002` Now, you son of man, wilt you judge, wilt you judge the bloody city? yea, you shalt shew her all her abominations.

26~EZEKIEL 022|003` Then say you, 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.

26~EZEKIEL 022|004` You art become guilty in thy blood that you hast shed; and hast defiled thyself in yours idols which you hast made; and you hast caused thy days to draw near, and art come even to thy years: therefore have I made you a reproach to the heathen, and a m

26~EZEKIEL 022|005` Those that be near, and those that be far from you, shall mock you, which art infamous and much vexed.

26~EZEKIEL 022|006` Behold, the princes of Israel, every one were in you to their power to shed blood.

26~EZEKIEL 022|007` In you have they set light by father and mother: in the midst of you have they dealt by oppression with the stranger: in you have they vexed the fatherless and the widow.

26~EZEKIEL 022|008` You hast despised mine holy things, and hast profaned my sabbaths.

26~EZEKIEL 022|009` In you are men that carry tales to shed blood: and in you they eat upon the mountains: in the midst of you they commit lewdness.

26~EZEKIEL 022|010` In you have they discovered their fathers' nakedness: in you have they humbled her that was set apart for pollution.

26~EZEKIEL 022|011` And one hath committed abomination with his neighbour's wife; and another hath lewdly defiled his daughter in law; and another in you hath humbled his sister, his father's daughter.

26~EZEKIEL 022|012` In you have they taken gifts to shed blood; you hast taken usury and increase, and you hast greedily gained of thy neighbours by extortion, and hast forgotten me, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 022|013` Behold, therefore I have smitten mine hand at thy dishonest gain which you hast made, and at thy blood which hath been in the midst of you.

26~EZEKIEL 022|014` Can yours heart endure, or can yours hands be strong, in the days that I shall deal with you? I the Lord have spoken it, and will do it.

26~EZEKIEL 022|015` And I will scatter you among the heathen, and disperse you in the countries, and will consume thy filthiness out of you.

26~EZEKIEL 022|016` And you shalt take yours inheritance in thyself in the sight of the heathen, and you shalt know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 022|017` And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 022|018` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 022|019` Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Because you are all become dross, behold, therefore I will gather you into the midst of Jerusalem.

26~EZEKIEL 022|020` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 022|021` You, I will gather you, and blow upon you in the fire of my wrath, and you shall be melted in the midst thereof.

26~EZEKIEL 022|022` As silver is melted in the midst of the furnace, so shall you be melted in the midst thereof; and you shall know that I the Lord have poured out my fury upon you.

26~EZEKIEL 022|023` And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 022|024` Son of man, say to her, you art the land that is not cleansed, nor rained upon in the day of indignation.

26~EZEKIEL 022|025` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 022|026` 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 shewed difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.

26~EZEKIEL 022|027` Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, and to destroy souls, to get dishonest gain.

26~EZEKIEL 022|028` And her prophets have daubed them with untempered morter, seeing vanity, and divining lies to them, saying, Thus saith the Lord God, when the Lord hath not spoken.

26~EZEKIEL 022|029` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 022|030` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 022|031` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 023|001` The word of the Lord came again to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 023|002` Son of man, there were two women, the daughters of one mother:

26~EZEKIEL 023|003` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 023|004` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 023|005` And Aholah played the harlot when she was mine; and she doted on her lovers, on the Assyrians her neighbours,

26~EZEKIEL 023|006` Which were clothed with blue, captains and rulers, all of them desirable young men, horsemen riding upon horses.

26~EZEKIEL 023|007` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 023|008` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 023|009` Wherefore I have delivered her into the hand of her lovers, into the hand of the Assyrians, upon whom she doted.

26~EZEKIEL 023|010` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 023|011` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 023|012` She doted upon the Assyrians her neighbours, captains and rulers clothed most gorgeously, horsemen riding upon horses, all of them desirable young men.

26~EZEKIEL 023|013` Then I saw that she was defiled, that they took both one way,

26~EZEKIEL 023|014` And that she increased her whoredoms: for when she saw men pourtrayed upon the wall, the images of the Chaldeans pourtrayed with vermilion,

26~EZEKIEL 023|015` 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:

26~EZEKIEL 023|016` And as soon as she saw them with her eyes, she doted upon them, and sent messengers to them into Chaldea.

26~EZEKIEL 023|017` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 023|018` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 023|019` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 023|020` For she doted upon their Paramours, whose flesh is as the flesh of asses, and whose issue is like the issue of horses.

26~EZEKIEL 023|021` Thus you calledst to remembrance the lewdness of thy youth, in bruising thy teats by the Egyptians for the paps of thy youth.

26~EZEKIEL 023|022` Therefore, O Aholibah, thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will raise up thy lovers against you, from whom thy mind is alienated, and I will bring them against you on every side;

26~EZEKIEL 023|023` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 023|024` And they shall come against you with chariots, wagons, and wheels, and with an assembly of people, which shall set against you buckler and shield and helmet round about: and I will set judgment before them, and they shall judge you according to their judgments.

26~EZEKIEL 023|025` And I will set my jealousy against you, and they shall deal furiously with you: they shall take away thy nose and yours 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.

26~EZEKIEL 023|026` They shall also strip you out of thy clothes, and take away thy fair jewels.

26~EZEKIEL 023|027` Thus will I make thy lewdness to cease from you, and thy whoredom brought from the land of Egypt: so that you shalt not lift up yours eyes to them, nor remember Egypt any more.

26~EZEKIEL 023|028` For thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will deliver you into the hand of them whom you hatest, into the hand of them from whom thy mind is alienated:

26~EZEKIEL 023|029` And they shall deal with you hatefully, and shall take away all thy labour, and shall leave you naked and bare: and the nakedness of thy whoredoms shall be discovered, both thy lewdness and thy whoredoms.

26~EZEKIEL 023|030` I will do these things to you, because you hast gone a whoring after the heathen, and because you art polluted with their idols.

26~EZEKIEL 023|031` You hast walked in the way of thy sister; therefore will I give her cup into yours hand.

26~EZEKIEL 023|032` Thus saith the Lord God; You shalt drink of thy sister's cup deep and large: you shalt be laughed to scorn and had in derision; it containeth much.

26~EZEKIEL 023|033` You shalt be filled with drunkenness and sorrow, with the cup of astonishment and desolation, with the cup of thy sister Samaria.

26~EZEKIEL 023|034` You shalt even drink it and suck it out, and you shalt break the sherds thereof, and pluck off yours own breasts: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 023|035` Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Because you hast forgotten me, and cast me behind thy back, therefore bear you also thy lewdness and thy whoredoms.

26~EZEKIEL 023|036` The Lord said moreover to me; Son of man, wilt you judge Aholah and Aholibah? yea, declare to them their abominations;

26~EZEKIEL 023|037` 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 to me, to pass for them through the fire, to devour them.

26~EZEKIEL 023|038` Moreover this they have done to me: they have defiled my sanctuary in the same day, and have profaned my sabbaths.

26~EZEKIEL 023|039` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 023|040` And furthermore, that you have sent for men to come from far, to whom a messenger was sent; and, lo, they came: for whom you didst wash thyself, paintedst thy eyes, and deckedst thyself with ornaments,

26~EZEKIEL 023|041` And satest upon a stately bed, and a table prepared before it, whereupon you hast set mine incense and mine oil.

26~EZEKIEL 023|042` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 023|043` Then said I to her that was old in adulteries, Will they now commit whoredoms with her, and she with them?

26~EZEKIEL 023|044` Yet they went in to her, as they go in to a woman that playeth the harlot: so went they in to Aholah and to Aholibah, the lewd women.

26~EZEKIEL 023|045` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 023|046` For thus saith the Lord God; I will bring up a company upon them, and will give them to be removed and spoiled.

26~EZEKIEL 023|047` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 023|048` Thus will I cause lewdness to cease out of the land, that all women may be taught not to do after your lewdness.

26~EZEKIEL 023|049` And they shall recompense your lewdness upon you, and you shall bear the sins of your idols: and you shall know that I am the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 024|001` Again in the ninth year, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 024|002` Son of man, write you the name of the day, even of this same day: the king of Babylon set himself against Jerusalem this same day.

26~EZEKIEL 024|003` And utter a parable to the rebellious house, and say to them, Thus saith the Lord God; Set on a pot, set it on, and also pour water into it:

26~EZEKIEL 024|004` Gather the pieces thereof into it, even every good piece, the thigh, and the shoulder; fill it with the choice bones.

26~EZEKIEL 024|005` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 024|006` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 024|007` 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;

26~EZEKIEL 024|008` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 024|009` Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Woe to the bloody city! I will even make the pile for fire great.

26~EZEKIEL 024|010` Heap on wood, kindle the fire, consume the flesh, and spice it well, and let the bones be burned.

26~EZEKIEL 024|011` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 024|012` She hath wearied herself with lies, and her great scum went not forth out of her: her scum shall be in the fire.

26~EZEKIEL 024|013` In thy filthiness is lewdness: because I have purged you, and you wast not purged, you shalt not be purged from thy filthiness any more, till I have caused my fury to rest upon you.

26~EZEKIEL 024|014` 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 you, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 024|015` Also the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 024|016` Son of man, behold, I take away from you the desire of yours eyes with a stroke: yet neither shalt you mourn nor weep, neither shall thy tears run down.

26~EZEKIEL 024|017` Forbear to cry, make no mourning for the dead, bind the tire of yours head upon you, and put on thy shoes upon thy feet, and cover not thy lips, and eat not the bread of men.

26~EZEKIEL 024|018` So I spoke to the people in the morning: and at even my wife died; and I did in the morning as I was commanded.

26~EZEKIEL 024|019` And the people said to me, Wilt you not tell us what these things are to us, that you doest so?

26~EZEKIEL 024|020` Then I answered them, The word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 024|021` Speak to 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 you have left shall fall by the sword.

26~EZEKIEL 024|022` And you shall do as I have done: you shall not cover your lips, nor eat the bread of men.

26~EZEKIEL 024|023` And your tires shall be upon your heads, and your shoes upon your feet: you shall not mourn nor weep; but you shall pine away for your iniquities, and mourn one toward another.

26~EZEKIEL 024|024` Thus Ezekiel is to you a sign: according to all that he hath done shall you do: and when this comes, you shall know that I am the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 024|025` Also, you 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,

26~EZEKIEL 024|026` That he that escapeth in that day shall come to you, to cause you to hear it with yours ears?

26~EZEKIEL 024|027` In that day shall thy mouth be opened to him which is escaped, and you shalt speak, and be no more dumb: and you shalt be a sign to them; and they shall know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 025|001` The word of the Lord came again to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 025|002` Son of man, set thy face against the Ammonites, and prophesy against them;

26~EZEKIEL 025|003` And say to the Ammonites, Hear the word of the Lord God; Thus saith the Lord God; because you 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

26~EZEKIEL 025|004` Behold, therefore I will deliver you to the men of the east for a possession, and they shall set their palaces in you, and make their dwellings in you: they shall eat thy fruit, and they shall drink thy milk.

26~EZEKIEL 025|005` And I will make Rabbah a stable for camels, and the Ammonites a couchingplace for flocks: and you shall know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 025|006` For thus saith the Lord God; Because you hast clapped yours hands, and stamped with the feet, and rejoiced in heart with all thy despite against the land of Israel;

26~EZEKIEL 025|007` Behold, therefore I will stretch out mine hand upon you, and will deliver you for a spoil to the heathen; and I will cut you off from the people, and I will cause you to perish out of the countries: I will destroy you; and you shalt know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 025|008` Thus saith the Lord God; Because that Moab and Seir do say, Behold, the house of Judah is like to all the heathen;

26~EZEKIEL 025|009` 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,

26~EZEKIEL 025|010` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 025|011` And I will execute judgments upon Moab; and they shall know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 025|012` 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;

26~EZEKIEL 025|013` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 025|014` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 025|015` 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;

26~EZEKIEL 025|016` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 025|017` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 026|001` And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 026|002` Son of man, because that Tyrus hath said against Jerusalem, Aha, she is broken that was the gates of the people: she is turned to me: I shall be replenished, now she is laid waste:

26~EZEKIEL 026|003` Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against you, O Tyrus, and will cause many nations to come up against you, as the sea causes his waves to come up.

26~EZEKIEL 026|004` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 026|005` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 026|006` And her daughters which are in the field shall be slain by the sword; and they shall know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 026|007` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 026|008` He shall slay with the sword thy daughters in the field: and he shall make a fort against you, and cast a mount against you, and lift up the buckler against you.

26~EZEKIEL 026|009` And he shall set engines of war against thy walls, and with his axes he shall break down thy towers.

26~EZEKIEL 026|010` By reason of the abundance of his horses their dust shall cover you: 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.

26~EZEKIEL 026|011` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 026|012` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 026|013` And I will cause the noise of thy songs to cease; and the sound of thy harps shall be no more heard.

26~EZEKIEL 026|014` And I will make you like the top of a rock: you shalt be a place to spread nets upon; you shalt be built no more: for I the Lord have spoken it, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 026|015` 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 you?

26~EZEKIEL 026|016` 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 you.

26~EZEKIEL 026|017` And they shall take up a lamentation for you, and say to you, How art you 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!

26~EZEKIEL 026|018` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 026|019` For thus saith the Lord God; When I shall make you a desolate city, like the cities that are not inhabited; when I shall bring up the deep upon you, and great waters shall cover you;

26~EZEKIEL 026|020` When I shall bring you down with them that descend into the pit, with the people of old time, and shall set you in the low parts of the earth, in places desolate of old, with them that go down to the pit, that you be not inhabited; and I shall set glory in the land of the liv

26~EZEKIEL 026|021` I will make you a terror, and you shalt be no more: though you be sought for, yet shalt you never be found again, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 027|001` The word of the Lord came again to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 027|002` Now, you son of man, take up a lamentation for Tyrus;

26~EZEKIEL 027|003` And say to Tyrus, O you 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, you hast said, I am of perfect beauty.

26~EZEKIEL 027|004` Your borders are in the midst of the seas, thy builders have perfected thy beauty.

26~EZEKIEL 027|005` They have made all thy ship boards of fir trees of Senir: they have taken cedars from Lebanon to make masts for you.

26~EZEKIEL 027|006` Of the oaks of Bashan have they made yours oars; the company of the Ashurites have made thy benches of ivory, brought out of the isles of Chittim.

26~EZEKIEL 027|007` Fine linen with broidered work from Egypt was that which you spreads forth to be thy sail; blue and purple from the isles of Elishah was that which covered you.

26~EZEKIEL 027|008` The inhabitants of Zidon and Arvad were thy mariners: thy wise men, O Tyrus, that were in you, were thy pilots.

26~EZEKIEL 027|009` The ancients of Gebal and the wise men thereof were in you thy calkers: all the ships of the sea with their mariners were in you to occupy thy merchandise.

26~EZEKIEL 027|010` They of Persia and of Lud and of Phut were in yours army, thy men of war: they hanged the shield and helmet in you; they set forth thy comeliness.

26~EZEKIEL 027|011` The men of Arvad with yours 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.

26~EZEKIEL 027|012` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 027|013` Javan, Tubal, and Meshech, they were thy merchants: they traded the persons of men and vessels of brass in thy market.

26~EZEKIEL 027|014` They of the house of Togarmah traded in thy fairs with horses and horsemen and mules.

26~EZEKIEL 027|015` The men of Dedan were thy merchants; many isles were the merchandise of yours hand: they brought you for a present horns of ivory and ebony.

26~EZEKIEL 027|016` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 027|017` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 027|018` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 027|019` Dan also and Javan going to and fro occupied in thy fairs: bright iron, cassia, and calamus, were in thy market.

26~EZEKIEL 027|020` Dedan was thy merchant in precious clothes for chariots.

26~EZEKIEL 027|021` Arabia, and all the princes of Kedar, they occupied with you in lambs, and rams, and goats: in these were they thy merchants.

26~EZEKIEL 027|022` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 027|023` Haran, and Canneh, and Eden, the merchants of Sheba, Asshur, and Chilmad, were thy merchants.

26~EZEKIEL 027|024` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 027|025` The ships of Tarshish did sing of you in thy market: and you wast replenished, and made very glorious in the midst of the seas.

26~EZEKIEL 027|026` Your rowers have brought you into great waters: the east wind hath broken you in the midst of the seas.

26~EZEKIEL 027|027` Your 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 you, and in all thy company which is in the midst of you, shall fall into the midst of the seas

26~EZEKIEL 027|028` The suburbs shall shake at the sound of the cry of thy pilots.

26~EZEKIEL 027|029` 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;

26~EZEKIEL 027|030` And shall cause their voice to be heard against you, and shall cry bitterly, and shall cast up dust upon their heads, they shall wallow themselves in the ashes:

26~EZEKIEL 027|031` And they shall make themselves utterly bald for you, and gird them with sackcloth, and they shall weep for you with bitterness of heart and bitter wailing.

26~EZEKIEL 027|032` And in their wailing they shall take up a lamentation for you, and lament over you, saying, What city is like Tyrus, like the destroyed in the midst of the sea?

26~EZEKIEL 027|033` When thy wares went forth out of the seas, you filledst many people; you didst enrich the kings of the earth with the multitude of thy riches and of thy merchandise.

26~EZEKIEL 027|034` In the time when you shalt be broken by the seas in the depths of the waters thy merchandise and all thy company in the midst of you shall fall.

26~EZEKIEL 027|035` All the inhabitants of the isles shall be astonished at you, and their kings shall be sore afraid, they shall be troubled in their countenance.

26~EZEKIEL 027|036` The merchants among the people shall hiss at you; you shalt be a terror, and never shalt be any more.

26~EZEKIEL 028|001` The word of the Lord came again to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 028|002` Son of man, say to the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith the Lord God; Because yours heart is lifted up, and you hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet you art a man, and not God, though you set yours heart as the heart of God:

26~EZEKIEL 028|003` Behold, you art wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from you:

26~EZEKIEL 028|004` With thy wisdom and with yours understanding you hast gotten you riches, and hast gotten gold and silver into thy treasures:

26~EZEKIEL 028|005` By thy great wisdom and by thy traffick hast you increased thy riches, and yours heart is lifted up because of thy riches:

26~EZEKIEL 028|006` Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Because you hast set yours heart as the heart of God;

26~EZEKIEL 028|007` Behold, therefore I will bring strangers upon you, the terrible of the nations: and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness.

26~EZEKIEL 028|008` They shall bring you down to the pit, and you shalt die the deaths of them that are slain in the midst of the seas.

26~EZEKIEL 028|009` Wilt you yet say before him that kills you, I am God? but you shalt be a man, and no God, in the hand of him that kills you.

26~EZEKIEL 028|010` You shalt die the deaths of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 028|011` Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 028|012` Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say to him, thus saith the Lord God; You seals up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.

26~EZEKIEL 028|013` You 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 w

26~EZEKIEL 028|014` You art the anointed cherub that covers; and I have set you so: you wast upon the holy mountain of God; you hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.

26~EZEKIEL 028|015` You wast perfect in thy ways from the day that you wast created, till iniquity was found in you.

26~EZEKIEL 028|016` By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of you with violence, and you hast sinned: therefore I will cast you as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy you, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.

26~EZEKIEL 028|017` Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, you hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast you to the ground, I will lay you before kings, that they may behold you.

26~EZEKIEL 028|018` You hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of yours iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of you, it shall devour you, and I will bring you to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them th

26~EZEKIEL 028|019` All they that know you among the people shall be astonished at you: you shalt be a terror, and never shalt you be any more.

26~EZEKIEL 028|020` Again the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 028|021` Son of man, set thy face against Zidon, and prophesy against it,

26~EZEKIEL 028|022` And say, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against you, O Zidon; and I will be glorified in the midst of you: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have executed judgments in her, and shall be sanctified in her.

26~EZEKIEL 028|023` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 028|024` And there shall be no more a pricking brier to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 028|025` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 028|026` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 029|001` In the tenth year, in the tenth month, in the twelfth day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 029|002` Son of man, set thy face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against him, and against all Egypt:

26~EZEKIEL 029|003` Speak, and say, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against you, 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.

26~EZEKIEL 029|004` But I will put hooks in thy jaws, and I will cause the fish of thy rivers to stick to thy scales, and I will bring you up out of the midst of thy rivers, and all the fish of thy rivers shall stick to thy scales.

26~EZEKIEL 029|005` And I will leave you thrown into the wilderness, you and all the fish of thy rivers: you shalt fall upon the open fields; you shalt not be brought together, nor gathered: I have given you for meat to the beasts of the field and to the fowls of the heaven.

26~EZEKIEL 029|006` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 029|007` When they took hold of you by thy hand, you didst break, and rend all their shoulder: and when they leaned upon you, you break, and madest all their loins to be at a stand.

26~EZEKIEL 029|008` Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will bring a sword upon you, and cut off man and beast out of you.

26~EZEKIEL 029|009` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 029|010` Behold, therefore I am against you, and against thy rivers, and I will make the land of Egypt utterly waste and desolate, from the tower of Syene even to the border of Ethiopia.

26~EZEKIEL 029|011` No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of beast shall pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty years.

26~EZEKIEL 029|012` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 029|013` Yet thus saith the Lord God; At the end of forty years will I gather the Egyptians from the people whither they were scattered:

26~EZEKIEL 029|014` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 029|015` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 029|016` And it shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel, which brings their iniquity to remembrance, when they shall look after them: but they shall know that I am the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 029|017` 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 to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 029|018` 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:

26~EZEKIEL 029|019` Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will give the land of Egypt to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 029|020` I have given him the land of Egypt for his labour where with he served against it, because they wrought for me, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 029|021` In that day will I cause the horn of the house of Israel to bud forth, and I will give you the opening of the mouth in the midst of them; and they shall know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 030|001` The word of the Lord came again to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 030|002` Son of man, prophesy and say, Thus saith the Lord God; Howl you, Woe worth the day!

26~EZEKIEL 030|003` For the day is near, even the day of the Lord is near, a cloudy day; it shall be the time of the heathen.

26~EZEKIEL 030|004` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 030|005` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 030|006` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 030|007` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 030|008` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 030|009` 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 comes.

26~EZEKIEL 030|010` Thus saith the Lord God; I will also make the multitude of Egypt to cease by the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon.

26~EZEKIEL 030|011` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 030|012` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 030|013` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 030|014` And I will make Pathros desolate, and will set fire in Zoan, and will execute judgments in no.

26~EZEKIEL 030|015` And I will pour my fury upon Sin, the strength of Egypt; and I will cut off the multitude of No.

26~EZEKIEL 030|016` And I will set fire in Egypt: Sin shall have great pain, and No shall be rent asunder, and Noph shall have distresses daily.

26~EZEKIEL 030|017` The young men of Aven and of Pibeseth shall fall by the sword: and these cities shall go into captivity.

26~EZEKIEL 030|018` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 030|019` Thus will I execute judgments in Egypt: and they shall know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 030|020` 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 to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 030|021` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 030|022` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 030|023` And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.

26~EZEKIEL 030|024` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 030|025` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 030|026` And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and disperse them among the countries; and they shall know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 031|001` 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 to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 031|002` Son of man, speak to Pharaoh king of Egypt, and to his multitude; Whom art you like in thy greatness?

26~EZEKIEL 031|003` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 031|004` 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 to all the trees of the field.

26~EZEKIEL 031|005` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 031|006` 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 lived all great nations.

26~EZEKIEL 031|007` Thus was he fair in his greatness, in the length of his branches: for his root was by great waters.

26~EZEKIEL 031|008` The cedars in the garden of God could not hide him: the fir trees were not like his boughs, and the chesnut trees were not like his branches; nor any tree in the garden of God was like to him in his beauty.

26~EZEKIEL 031|009` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 031|010` Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Because you 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;

26~EZEKIEL 031|011` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 031|012` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 031|013` Upon his ruin shall all the fowls of the heaven remain, and all the beasts of the field shall be upon his branches:

26~EZEKIEL 031|014` 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 to death, to the nether parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit.

26~EZEKIEL 031|015` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 031|016` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 031|017` They also went down into hell with him to them that be slain with the sword; and they that were his arm, that lived under his shadow in the midst of the heathen.

26~EZEKIEL 031|018` To whom art you thus like in glory and in greatness among the trees of Eden? yet shalt you be brought down with the trees of Eden to the nether parts of the earth: you shalt lie in the midst of the uncircumcised with them that be slain by the sword. This is Pharaoh a

26~EZEKIEL 032|001` 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 to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 032|002` Son of man, take up a lamentation for Pharaoh king of Egypt, and say to him, You art like a young lion of the nations, and you art as a whale in the seas: and you came forth with thy rivers, and troubledst the waters with thy feet, and fouledst their rivers.

26~EZEKIEL 032|003` Thus saith the Lord God; I will therefore spread out my net over you with a company of many people; and they shall bring you up in my net.

26~EZEKIEL 032|004` Then will I leave you upon the land, I will cast you forth upon the open field, and will cause all the fowls of the heaven to remain upon you, and I will fill the beasts of the whole earth with you.

26~EZEKIEL 032|005` And I will lay thy flesh upon the mountains, and fill the valleys with thy height.

26~EZEKIEL 032|006` I will also water with thy blood the land wherein you swims, even to the mountains; and the rivers shall be full of you.

26~EZEKIEL 032|007` And when I shall put you 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.

26~EZEKIEL 032|008` All the bright lights of heaven will I make dark over you, and set darkness upon thy land, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 032|009` I will also vex the hearts of many people, when I shall bring thy destruction among the nations, into the countries which you hast not known.

26~EZEKIEL 032|010` You, I will make many people amazed at you, and their kings shall be horribly afraid for you, 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.

26~EZEKIEL 032|011` For thus saith the Lord God; The sword of the king of Babylon shall come upon you.

26~EZEKIEL 032|012` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 032|013` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 032|014` Then will I make their waters deep, and cause their rivers to run like oil, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 032|015` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 032|016` This is the lamentation where with 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.

26~EZEKIEL 032|017` It came to pass also in the twelfth year, in the fifteenth day of the month, that the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 032|018` Son of man, wail for the multitude of Egypt, and cast them down, even her, and the daughters of the famous nations, to the nether parts of the earth, with them that go down into the pit.

26~EZEKIEL 032|019` Whom dost you pass in beauty? go down, and be you laid with the uncircumcised.

26~EZEKIEL 032|020` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 032|021` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 032|022` Asshur is there and all her company: his graves are about him: all of them slain, fallen by the sword:

26~EZEKIEL 032|023` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 032|024` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 032|025` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 032|026` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 032|027` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 032|028` You, you shalt be broken in the midst of the uncircumcised, and shalt lie with them that are slain with the sword.

26~EZEKIEL 032|029` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 032|030` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 032|031` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 032|032` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 033|001` Again the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 033|002` Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say to 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:

26~EZEKIEL 033|003` If when he sees the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people;

26~EZEKIEL 033|004` Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and takes not warning; if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head.

26~EZEKIEL 033|005` He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be upon him. But he that takes warning shall deliver his soul.

26~EZEKIEL 033|006` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 033|007` So you, O son of man, I have set you a watchman to the house of Israel; therefore you shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me.

26~EZEKIEL 033|008` When I say to the wicked, O wicked man, you shalt surely die; if you 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 yours hand.

26~EZEKIEL 033|009` Nevertheless, if you 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 you hast delivered thy soul.

26~EZEKIEL 033|010` Therefore, O you son of man, speak to the house of Israel; Thus you speak, saying, If our transgressions and our sins be upon us, and we pine away in them, how should we then live?

26~EZEKIEL 033|011` Say to 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 you, turn you from your evil ways; for why will you die, O house of Israel?

26~EZEKIEL 033|012` Therefore, you son of man, say to 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; neith

26~EZEKIEL 033|013` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 033|014` Again, when I say to the wicked, You shalt surely die; if he turn from his sin, and do that which is lawful and right;

26~EZEKIEL 033|015` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 033|016` None of his sins that he hath committed shall be mentioned to him: he hath done that which is lawful and right; he shall surely live.

26~EZEKIEL 033|017` Yet the children of thy people say, The way of the Lord is not equal: but as for them, their way is not equal.

26~EZEKIEL 033|018` When the righteous turneth from his righteousness, and commits iniquity, he shall even die thereby.

26~EZEKIEL 033|019` But if the wicked turn from his wickedness, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall live thereby.

26~EZEKIEL 033|020` Yet you say, The way of the Lord is not equal. O you house of Israel, I will judge you every one after his ways.

26~EZEKIEL 033|021` 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 to me, saying, The city is smitten.

26~EZEKIEL 033|022` Now the hand of the Lord was upon me in the evening, before 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.

26~EZEKIEL 033|023` Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 033|024` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 033|025` Wherefore say to them, Thus saith the Lord God; Ye eat with the blood, and lift up your eyes toward your idols, and shed blood: and shall you possess the land?

26~EZEKIEL 033|026` Ye stand upon your sword, you work abomination, and you defile every one his neighbour's wife: and shall you possess the land?

26~EZEKIEL 033|027` Say you thus to 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 pes

26~EZEKIEL 033|028` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 033|029` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 033|030` Also, you son of man, the children of thy people still are talking against you 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 comes forth from the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 033|031` And they come to you as the people comes, and they sit before you as my people, and they hear thy words, but they will not do them: for with their mouth they shew much love, but their heart goeth after their covetousness.

26~EZEKIEL 033|032` And, lo, you art to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 033|033` And when this comes to pass, (lo, it will come,) then shall they know that a prophet hath been among them.

26~EZEKIEL 034|001` And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 034|002` Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and say to them, Thus saith the Lord God to the shepherds; Woe be to the shepherds of Israel that do feed themselves! should not the shepherds feed the flocks?

26~EZEKIEL 034|003` Ye eat the fat, and you clothe you with the wool, you kill them that are fed: but you feed not the flock.

26~EZEKIEL 034|004` The diseased have you not strengthened, neither have you healed that which was sick, neither have you bound up that which was broken, neither have you brought again that which was driven away, neither have you sought that which was lost; but with force and with cruelty have you rul

26~EZEKIEL 034|005` And they were scattered, because there is no shepherd: and they became meat to all the beasts of the field, when they were scattered.

26~EZEKIEL 034|006` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 034|007` Therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of the Lord;

26~EZEKIEL 034|008` 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;

26~EZEKIEL 034|009` Therefore, O you shepherds, hear the word of the Lord;

26~EZEKIEL 034|010` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 034|011` For thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I, even I, will both search my sheep, and seek them out.

26~EZEKIEL 034|012` As a shepherd seeks 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.

26~EZEKIEL 034|013` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 034|014` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 034|015` I will feed my flock, and I will cause them to lie down, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 034|016` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 034|017` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 034|018` Seemeth it a small thing to you to have eaten up the good pasture, but you must tread down with your feet the residue of your pastures? and to have drunk of the deep waters, but you must foul the residue with your feet?

26~EZEKIEL 034|019` And as for my flock, they eat that which you have trodden with your feet; and they drink that which you have fouled with your feet.

26~EZEKIEL 034|020` Therefore thus saith the Lord God to them; Behold, I, even I, will judge between the fat cattle and between the lean cattle.

26~EZEKIEL 034|021` Because you have thrust with side and with shoulder, and pushed all the diseased with your horns, till you have scattered them abroad;

26~EZEKIEL 034|022` Therefore will I save my flock, and they shall no more be a prey; and I will judge between cattle and cattle.

26~EZEKIEL 034|023` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 034|024` And I the Lord will be their God, and my servant David a prince among them; I the Lord have spoken it.

26~EZEKIEL 034|025` And I will make with them a covenient 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.

26~EZEKIEL 034|026` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 034|027` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 034|028` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 034|029` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 034|030` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 034|031` And you my flock, the flock of my pasture, are men, and I am your God, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 035|001` Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 035|002` Son of man, set thy face against mount Seir, and prophesy against it,

26~EZEKIEL 035|003` And say to it, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, O mount Seir, I am against you, and I will stretch out mine hand against you, and I will make you most desolate.

26~EZEKIEL 035|004` I will lay thy cities waste, and you shalt be desolate, and you shalt know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 035|005` Because you 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:

26~EZEKIEL 035|006` Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord God, I will prepare you to blood, and blood shall pursue you: sith you hast not hated blood, even blood shall pursue you.

26~EZEKIEL 035|007` Thus will I make mount Seir most desolate, and cut off from it him that passeth out and him that returneth.

26~EZEKIEL 035|008` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 035|009` I will make you perpetual desolations, and thy cities shall not return: and you shall know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 035|010` Because you hast said, These two nations and these two countries shall be mine, and we will possess it; whereas the Lord was there:

26~EZEKIEL 035|011` Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord God, I will even do according to yours anger, and according to yours envy which you hast used out of thy hatred against them; and I will make myself known among them, when I have judged you.

26~EZEKIEL 035|012` And you shalt know that I am the Lord, and that I have heard all thy blasphemies which you hast spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, They are laid desolate, they are given us to consume.

26~EZEKIEL 035|013` Thus with your mouth you have boasted against me, and have multiplied your words against me: I have heard them.

26~EZEKIEL 035|014` Thus saith the Lord God; When the whole earth rejoiceth, I will make you desolate.

26~EZEKIEL 035|015` As you didst rejoice at the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was desolate, so will I do to you: you shalt be desolate, O mount Seir, and all Idumea, even all of it: and they shall know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 036|001` Also, you son of man, prophesy to the mountains of Israel, and say, Ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord:

26~EZEKIEL 036|002` Thus saith the Lord God; Because the enemy hath said against you, Aha, even the ancient high places are ours in possession:

26~EZEKIEL 036|003` Therefore prophesy and say, Thus saith the Lord God; Because they have made you desolate, and swallowed you up on every side, that you might be a possession to the residue of the heathen, and you are taken up in the lips of talkers, and are an infamy of the people:

26~EZEKIEL 036|004` Therefore, you 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

26~EZEKIEL 036|005` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 036|006` Prophesy therefore concerning the land of Israel, and say to 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 you have borne the shame of the heathen:

26~EZEKIEL 036|007` Therefore thus saith the Lord God; I have lifted up mine hand, Surely the heathen that are about you, they shall bear their shame.

26~EZEKIEL 036|008` But you, O mountains of Israel, you shall shoot forth your branches, and yield your fruit to my people of Israel; for they are at hand to come.

26~EZEKIEL 036|009` For, behold, I am for you, and I will turn to you, and you shall be tilled and sown:

26~EZEKIEL 036|010` 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 built:

26~EZEKIEL 036|011` 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 to you than at your beginnings: and you shall know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 036|012` You, I will cause men to walk upon you, even my people Israel; and they shall possess you, and you shalt be their inheritance, and you shalt no more henceforth bereave them of men.

26~EZEKIEL 036|013` Thus saith the Lord God; Because they say to you, You land devourest up men, and hast bereaved thy nations:

26~EZEKIEL 036|014` Therefore you shalt devour men no more, neither bereave thy nations any more, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 036|015` Neither will I cause men to hear in you the shame of the heathen any more, neither shalt you bear the reproach of the people any more, neither shalt you cause thy nations to fall any more, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 036|016` Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 036|017` Son of man, when the house of Israel lived 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.

26~EZEKIEL 036|018` Wherefore I poured my fury upon them for the blood that they had shed upon the land, and for their idols where with they had polluted it:

26~EZEKIEL 036|019` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 036|020` And when they entered to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 036|021` But I had pity for mine holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the heathen, whither they went.

26~EZEKIEL 036|022` Therefore say to 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 you have profaned among the heathen, whither you went.

26~EZEKIEL 036|023` And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned among the heathen, which you 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.

26~EZEKIEL 036|024` For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land.

26~EZEKIEL 036|025` Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and you shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.

26~EZEKIEL 036|026` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 036|027` And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and you shall keep my judgments, and do them.

26~EZEKIEL 036|028` And you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and you shall be My people, and I will be your God.

26~EZEKIEL 036|029` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 036|030` And I will multiply the fruit of the tree, and the increase of the field, that you shall receive no more reproach of famine among the heathen.

26~EZEKIEL 036|031` Then shall you remember your own evil ways, and your doings that were not good, and shall lothe yourselves in your own sight for your iniquities and for your abominations.

26~EZEKIEL 036|032` Not for your sakes do I this, saith the Lord God, be it known to you: be ashamed and confounded for your own ways, O house of Israel.

26~EZEKIEL 036|033` 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 built.

26~EZEKIEL 036|034` And the desolate land shall be tilled, whereas it lay desolate in the sight of all that passed by.

26~EZEKIEL 036|035` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 036|036` Then the heathen that are left round about you shall know that I the Lord build the ruined places, and plant that was desolate: I the Lord have spoken it, and I will do it.

26~EZEKIEL 036|037` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 036|038` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 037|001` 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,

26~EZEKIEL 037|002` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 037|003` And he said to me, Son of man, can these bones live? and I answered, O Lord God, you knowest.

26~EZEKIEL 037|004` Again he said to me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say to them, O you dry bones, hear the word of the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 037|005` Thus saith the Lord God to these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and you shall live:

26~EZEKIEL 037|006` 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 you shall live; and you shall know that I am the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 037|007` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 037|008` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 037|009` Then said he to me, Prophesy to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 037|010` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 037|011` Then he said to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 037|012` Therefore prophesy and say to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 037|013` And you shall know that I am the Lord, when I have opened your graves, O My people, and brought you up out of your graves,

26~EZEKIEL 037|014` And shall put my spirit in you, and you shall live, and I shall place you in your own land: then shall you know that I the Lord have spoken it, and performed it, saith the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 037|015` The word of the Lord came again to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 037|016` Moreover, you son of man, take you 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:

26~EZEKIEL 037|017` And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in yours hand.

26~EZEKIEL 037|018` And when the children of thy people shall speak to you, saying, Wilt you not shew us what you meanest by these?

26~EZEKIEL 037|019` Say to 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

26~EZEKIEL 037|020` And the sticks whereon you writest shall be in yours hand before their eyes.

26~EZEKIEL 037|021` And say to 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:

26~EZEKIEL 037|022` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 037|023` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 037|024` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 037|025` And they shall dwell in the land that I have given to Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have lived; 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.

26~EZEKIEL 037|026` Moreover I will make a covenient of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenient with them: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore.

26~EZEKIEL 037|027` My tabernacle also shall be with them: yea, I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

26~EZEKIEL 037|028` And the heathen shall know that I the Lord do sanctify Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for evermore.

26~EZEKIEL 038|001` And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

26~EZEKIEL 038|002` Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,

26~EZEKIEL 038|003` And say, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against you, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:

26~EZEKIEL 038|004` And I will turn you back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring you forth, and all yours army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armor, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:

26~EZEKIEL 038|005` Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:

26~EZEKIEL 038|006` Gomer, and all his bands; the house of Togarmah of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with you.

26~EZEKIEL 038|007` Be you prepared, and prepare for thyself, you, and all thy company that are assembled to you, and be you a guard to them.

26~EZEKIEL 038|008` After many days you shalt be visited: in the latter years you 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 the

26~EZEKIEL 038|009` You shalt ascend and come like a storm, you shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, you, and all thy bands, and many people with you.

26~EZEKIEL 038|010` Thus saith the Lord God; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and you shalt think an evil thought:

26~EZEKIEL 038|011` And you 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,

26~EZEKIEL 038|012` To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn yours 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.

26~EZEKIEL 038|013` Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say to you, Art you come to take a spoil? hast you gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?

26~EZEKIEL 038|014` Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say to Gog, Thus saith the Lord God; In that day when My people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt you not know it?

26~EZEKIEL 038|015` And you shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, you, and many people with you, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty army:

26~EZEKIEL 038|016` And you 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 you against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in you, O Gog, before their eyes.

26~EZEKIEL 038|017` Thus saith the Lord God; Art you 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 you against them?

26~EZEKIEL 038|018` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 038|019` 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;

26~EZEKIEL 038|020` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 038|021` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 038|022` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 038|023` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 039|001` Therefore, you son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against you, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:

26~EZEKIEL 039|002` And I will turn you back, and leave but the sixth part of you, and will cause you to come up from the north parts, and will bring you upon the mountains of Israel:

26~EZEKIEL 039|003` And I will smite thy bow out of thy left hand, and will cause yours arrows to fall out of thy right hand.

26~EZEKIEL 039|004` You shalt fall upon the mountains of Israel, you, and all thy bands, and the people that is with you: I will give you to the ravenous birds of every sort, and to the beasts of the field to be devoured.

26~EZEKIEL 039|005` You shalt fall upon the open field: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 039|006` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 039|007` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 039|008` Behold, it is come, and it is done, saith the Lord God; this is the day whereof I have spoken.

26~EZEKIEL 039|009` 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:

26~EZEKIEL 039|010` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 039|011` And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will give to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 039|012` And seven months shall the house of Israel be burying of them, that they may cleanse the land.

26~EZEKIEL 039|013` You, 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.

26~EZEKIEL 039|014` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 039|015` And the passengers that pass through the land, when any sees a man's bone, then shall he set up a sign by it, till the buriers have buried it in the valley of Hamongog.

26~EZEKIEL 039|016` And also the name of the city shall be Hamonah. Thus shall they cleanse the land.

26~EZEKIEL 039|017` And, you son of man, thus saith the Lord God; Speak to 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

26~EZEKIEL 039|018` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 039|019` And you shall eat fat till you be full, and drink blood till you be drunken, of my sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you.

26~EZEKIEL 039|020` Thus you shall be filled at my table with horses and chariots, with mighty men, and with all men of war, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 039|021` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 039|022` So the house of Israel shall know that I am the Lord their God from that day and forward.

26~EZEKIEL 039|023` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 039|024` According to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions have I done to them, and hid my face from them.

26~EZEKIEL 039|025` 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;

26~EZEKIEL 039|026` After that they have borne their shame, and all their trespasses whereby they have trespassed against me, when they lived safely in their land, and none made them afraid.

26~EZEKIEL 039|027` 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;

26~EZEKIEL 039|028` 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 to their own land, and have left none of them any more there.

26~EZEKIEL 039|029` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|001` 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 there.

26~EZEKIEL 040|002` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|003` And he brought me there, 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|004` And the man said to me, Son of man, behold with yours eyes, and hear with yours ears, and set yours heart upon all that I shall shew you; for to the intent that I might shew them to you art you brought hither: declare all that you sees to the house of Israel.

26~EZEKIEL 040|005` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|006` Then came he to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|007` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|008` He measured also the porch of the gate within, one reed.

26~EZEKIEL 040|009` Then measured he the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and the posts thereof, two cubits; and the porch of the gate was inward.

26~EZEKIEL 040|010` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|011` And he measured the breadth of the entry of the gate, ten cubits; and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits.

26~EZEKIEL 040|012` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|013` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|014` He made also posts of threescore cubits, even to the post of the court round about the gate.

26~EZEKIEL 040|015` And from the face of the gate of the entrance to the face of the porch of the inner gate were fifty cubits.

26~EZEKIEL 040|016` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|017` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|018` And the pavement by the side of the gates over against the length of the gates was the lower pavement.

26~EZEKIEL 040|019` Then he measured the breadth from the forefront of the lower gate to the forefront of the inner court without, an hundred cubits eastward and northward.

26~EZEKIEL 040|020` And the gate of the outward court that looked toward the north, he measured the length thereof, and the breadth thereof.

26~EZEKIEL 040|021` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|022` 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 to it by seven steps; and the arches thereof were before them.

26~EZEKIEL 040|023` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|024` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|025` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|026` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|027` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|028` And he brought me to the inner court by the south gate: and he measured the south gate according to these measures;

26~EZEKIEL 040|029` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|030` And the arches round about were five and twenty cubits long, and five cubits broad.

26~EZEKIEL 040|031` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|032` And he brought me into the inner court toward the east: and he measured the gate according to these measures.

26~EZEKIEL 040|033` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|034` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|035` And he brought me to the north gate, and measured it according to these measures;

26~EZEKIEL 040|036` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|037` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|038` And the chambers and the entries thereof were by the posts of the gates, where they washed the burnt offering.

26~EZEKIEL 040|039` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|040` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|041` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|042` 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 where with they slew the burnt offering and the sacrifice.

26~EZEKIEL 040|043` And within were hooks, an hand broad, fastened round about: and upon the tables was the flesh of the offering.

26~EZEKIEL 040|044` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|045` And he said to me, This chamber, whose prospect is toward the south, is for the priests, the keepers of the charge of the house.

26~EZEKIEL 040|046` 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 to him.

26~EZEKIEL 040|047` So he measured the court, an hundred cubits long, and an hundred cubits broad, foursquare; and the altar that was before the house.

26~EZEKIEL 040|048` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 040|049` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 041|001` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 041|002` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 041|003` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 041|004` So he measured the length thereof, twenty cubits; and the breadth, twenty cubits, before the temple: and he said to me, This is the most holy place.

26~EZEKIEL 041|005` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 041|006` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 041|007` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 041|008` I saw also the height of the house round about: the foundations of the side chambers were a full reed of six great cubits.

26~EZEKIEL 041|009` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 041|010` And between the chambers was the wideness of twenty cubits round about the house on every side.

26~EZEKIEL 041|011` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 041|012` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 041|013` So he measured the house, an hundred cubits long; and the separate place, and the building, with the walls thereof, an hundred cubits long;

26~EZEKIEL 041|014` Also the breadth of the face of the house, and of the separate place toward the east, an hundred cubits.

26~EZEKIEL 041|015` 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;

26~EZEKIEL 041|016` The door posts, and the narrow windows, and the galleries round about on their three stories, over against the door, cieled with wood round about, and from the ground up to the windows, and the windows were covered;

26~EZEKIEL 041|017` To that above the door, even to the inner house, and without, and by all the wall round about within and without, by measure.

26~EZEKIEL 041|018` 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;

26~EZEKIEL 041|019` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 041|020` From the ground to above the door were Cherubims and palm trees made, and on the wall of the temple.

26~EZEKIEL 041|021` The posts of the temple were squared, and the face of the sanctuary; the appearance of the one as the appearance of the other.

26~EZEKIEL 041|022` 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 to me, This is the table that is before the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 041|023` And the temple and the sanctuary had two doors.

26~EZEKIEL 041|024` And the doors had two leaves apiece, two turning leaves; two leaves for the one door, and two leaves for the other door.

26~EZEKIEL 041|025` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 041|026` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 042|001` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 042|002` Before the length of an hundred cubits was the north door, and the breadth was fifty cubits.

26~EZEKIEL 042|003` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 042|004` And before the chambers was a walk of ten cubits breadth inward, a way of one cubit; and their doors toward the north.

26~EZEKIEL 042|005` Now the upper chambers were shorter: for the galleries were higher than these, than the lower, and than the middlemost of the building.

26~EZEKIEL 042|006` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 042|007` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 042|008` For the length of the chambers that were in the utter court was fifty cubits: and, lo, before the temple were an hundred cubits.

26~EZEKIEL 042|009` And from under these chambers was the entry on the east side, as one goeth into them from the utter court.

26~EZEKIEL 042|010` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 042|011` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 042|012` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 042|013` Then said he to me, The north chambers and the south chambers, which are before the separate place, they be holy chambers, where the priests that approach to the Lord shall eat the most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy things, and the meat offering, and

26~EZEKIEL 042|014` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 042|015` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 042|016` He measured the east side with the measuring reed, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about.

26~EZEKIEL 042|017` He measured the north side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed round about.

26~EZEKIEL 042|018` He measured the south side, five hundred reeds, with the measuring reed.

26~EZEKIEL 042|019` He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.

26~EZEKIEL 042|020` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 043|001` Afterward he brought me to the gate, even the gate that looketh toward the east:

26~EZEKIEL 043|002` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 043|003` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 043|004` And the glory of the Lord came into the house by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east.

26~EZEKIEL 043|005` So the spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold, the glory of the Lord filled the house.

26~EZEKIEL 043|006` And I heard him speaking to me out of the house; and the man stood by me.

26~EZEKIEL 043|007` And he said to 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

26~EZEKIEL 043|008` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 043|009` Now let them put away their whoredom, and the bodies of their kings, far from me, and I will dwell in the midst of them for ever.

26~EZEKIEL 043|010` You son of man, shew the house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities: and let them measure the pattern.

26~EZEKIEL 043|011` And if they be ashamed of all that they have done, shew 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.

26~EZEKIEL 043|012` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 043|013` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 043|014` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 043|015` So the altar shall be four cubits; and from the altar and upward shall be four horns.

26~EZEKIEL 043|016` And the altar shall be twelve cubits long, twelve broad, square in the four squares thereof.

26~EZEKIEL 043|017` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 043|018` And he said to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 043|019` And you shalt give to the priests the Levites that be of the seed of Zadok, which approach to me, to minister to me, saith the Lord God, a young bullock for a sin offering.

26~EZEKIEL 043|020` And you 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 you cleanse and purge it.

26~EZEKIEL 043|021` You shalt take the bullock also of the sin offering, and he shall burn it in the appointed place of the house, without the sanctuary.

26~EZEKIEL 043|022` And on the second day you 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.

26~EZEKIEL 043|023` When you hast made an end of cleansing it, you shalt offer a young bullock without blemish, and a ram out of the flock without blemish.

26~EZEKIEL 043|024` And you shalt offer them before the Lord, and the priests shall cast salt upon them, and they shall offer them up for a burnt offering to the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 043|025` Seven days shalt you 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.

26~EZEKIEL 043|026` Seven days shall they purge the altar and purify it; and they shall consecrate themselves.

26~EZEKIEL 043|027` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 044|001` Then he brought me back the way of the gate of the outward sanctuary which looketh toward the east; and it was shut.

26~EZEKIEL 044|002` Then said the Lord to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 044|003` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 044|004` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 044|005` And the Lord said to me, Son of man, mark well, and behold with yours eyes, and hear with yours ears all that I say to you 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

26~EZEKIEL 044|006` And you shalt say to the rebellious, even to the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord God; O you house of Israel, let it suffice you of all your abominations,

26~EZEKIEL 044|007` In that you 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 you offer my bread, the fat and the blood, and they have broken my covenient because of all your abomina

26~EZEKIEL 044|008` And you have not kept the charge of mine holy things: but you have set keepers of my charge in my sanctuary for yourselves.

26~EZEKIEL 044|009` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 044|010` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 044|011` 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 to them.

26~EZEKIEL 044|012` Because they ministered to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 044|013` And they shall not come near to me, to do the office of a priest to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 044|014` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 044|015` 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 to me, and they shall stand before me to offer to me the fat and the blood, saith the Lord God:

26~EZEKIEL 044|016` They shall enter into my sanctuary, and they shall come near to my table, to minister to me, and they shall keep my charge.

26~EZEKIEL 044|017` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 044|018` 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 causes sweat.

26~EZEKIEL 044|019` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 044|020` Neither shall they shave their heads, nor suffer their locks to grow long; they shall only poll their heads.

26~EZEKIEL 044|021` Neither shall any priest drink wine, when they enter into the inner court.

26~EZEKIEL 044|022` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 044|023` And they shall teach my people the difference between the holy and profane, and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean.

26~EZEKIEL 044|024` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 044|025` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 044|026` And after he is cleansed, they shall reckon to him seven days.

26~EZEKIEL 044|027` And in the day that he goeth into the sanctuary, to the inner court, to minister in the sanctuary, he shall offer his sin offering, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 044|028` And it shall be to them for an inheritance: I am their inheritance: and you shall give them no possession in Israel: I am their possession.

26~EZEKIEL 044|029` They shall eat the meat offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering: and every dedicated thing in Israel shall be theirs.

26~EZEKIEL 044|030` 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: you shall also give to the priest the first of your dough, that he may cause the blessing to rest in yours house.

26~EZEKIEL 044|031` The priests shall not eat of any thing that is dead of itself, or torn, whether it be fowl or beast.

26~EZEKIEL 045|001` Moreover, when you shall divide by lot the land for inheritance, you shall offer an oblation to 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 borde

26~EZEKIEL 045|002` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 045|003` And of this measure shalt you 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.

26~EZEKIEL 045|004` The holy portion of the land shall be for the priests the ministers of the sanctuary, which shall come near to minister to the Lord: and it shall be a place for their houses, and an holy place for the sanctuary.

26~EZEKIEL 045|005` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 045|006` And you 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.

26~EZEKIEL 045|007` 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 to the east border.

26~EZEKIEL 045|008` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 045|009` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 045|010` Ye shall have just balances, and a just Ephah, and a just bath.

26~EZEKIEL 045|011` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 045|012` And the shekel shall be twenty gerahs: twenty shekels, five and twenty shekels, fifteen shekels, shall be your Maneh.

26~EZEKIEL 045|013` This is the oblation that you shall offer; the sixth part of an Ephah of an homer of wheat, and you shall give the sixth part of an Ephah of an homer of barley:

26~EZEKIEL 045|014` Concerning the ordinance of oil, the bath of oil, you 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:

26~EZEKIEL 045|015` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 045|016` All the people of the land shall give this oblation for the prince in Israel.

26~EZEKIEL 045|017` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 045|018` Thus saith the Lord God; In the first month, in the first day of the month, you shalt take a young bullock without blemish, and cleanse the sanctuary:

26~EZEKIEL 045|019` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 045|020` And so you shalt do the seventh day of the month for every one that erreth, and for him that is simple: so shall you reconcile the house.

26~EZEKIEL 045|021` In the first month, in the fourteenth day of the month, you shall have the passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread shall be eaten.

26~EZEKIEL 045|022` And upon that day shall the prince prepare for himself and for all the people of the land a bullock for a sin offering.

26~EZEKIEL 045|023` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 045|024` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 045|025` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 046|001` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 046|002` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 046|003` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 046|004` And the burnt offering that the prince shall offer to the Lord in the sabbath day shall be six lambs without blemish, and a ram without blemish.

26~EZEKIEL 046|005` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 046|006` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 046|007` 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 to, and an hin of oil to an ephah.

26~EZEKIEL 046|008` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 046|009` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 046|010` And the prince in the midst of them, when they go in, shall go in; and when they go forth, shall go forth.

26~EZEKIEL 046|011` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 046|012` Now when the prince shall prepare a voluntary burnt offering or peace offerings voluntarily to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 046|013` You shalt daily prepare a burnt offering to the Lord of a lamb of the first year without blemish: you shalt prepare it every morning.

26~EZEKIEL 046|014` And you 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 to the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 046|015` Thus shall they prepare the lamb, and the meat offering, and the oil, every morning for a continual burnt offering.

26~EZEKIEL 046|016` Thus saith the Lord God; If the prince give a gift to any of his sons, the inheritance thereof shall be his sons'; it shall be their possession by inheritance.

26~EZEKIEL 046|017` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 046|018` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 046|019` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 046|020` Then said he to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 046|021` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 046|022` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 046|023` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 046|024` Then said he to me, These are the places of them that boil, where the ministers of the house shall boil the sacrifice of the people.

26~EZEKIEL 047|001` Afterward he brought me again to 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 alta

26~EZEKIEL 047|002` Then brought he me out of the way of the gate northward, and led me about the way without to the utter gate by the way that looketh eastward; and, behold, there ran out waters on the right side.

26~EZEKIEL 047|003` 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 ancles.

26~EZEKIEL 047|004` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 047|005` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 047|006` And he said to me, Son of man, hast you seen this? Then he brought me, and caused me to return to the brink of the river.

26~EZEKIEL 047|007` Now when I had returned, behold, at the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other.

26~EZEKIEL 047|008` Then said he to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 047|009` 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 there: for they shall be healed; and every thing shall live whither the river comes.

26~EZEKIEL 047|010` And it shall come to pass, that the fishers shall stand upon it from Engedi even to 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.

26~EZEKIEL 047|011` But the miry places thereof and the marishes thereof shall not be healed; they shall be given to salt.

26~EZEKIEL 047|012` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 047|013` Thus saith the Lord God; This shall be the border, whereby you shall inherit the land according to the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph shall have two portions.

26~EZEKIEL 047|014` And you shall inherit it, one as well as another: concerning the which I lifted up mine hand to give it to your fathers: and this land shall fall to you for inheritance.

26~EZEKIEL 047|015` 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;

26~EZEKIEL 047|016` Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath; Hazarhatticon, which is by the coast of Hauran.

26~EZEKIEL 047|017` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 047|018` And the east side you shall measure from Hauran, and from Damascus, and from Gilead, and from the land of Israel by Jordan, from the border to the east sea. And this is the east side.

26~EZEKIEL 047|019` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 047|020` The west side also shall be the great sea from the border, till a man come over against Hamath. This is the west side.

26~EZEKIEL 047|021` So shall you divide this land to you according to the tribes of Israel.

26~EZEKIEL 047|022` And it shall come to pass, that you shall divide it by lot for an inheritance to you, and to the strangers that sojourn among you, which shall beget children among you: and they shall be to you as born in the country among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you among t

26~EZEKIEL 047|023` And it shall come to pass, that in what tribe the stranger travels, there shall you give him his inheritance, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 048|001` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 048|002` And by the border of Dan, from the east side to the west side, a portion for Asher.

26~EZEKIEL 048|003` And by the border of Asher, from the east side even to the west side, a portion for Naphtali.

26~EZEKIEL 048|004` And by the border of Naphtali, from the east side to the west side, a portion for Manasseh.

26~EZEKIEL 048|005` And by the border of Manasseh, from the east side to the west side, a portion for Ephraim.

26~EZEKIEL 048|006` And by the border of Ephraim, from the east side even to the west side, a portion for Reuben.

26~EZEKIEL 048|007` And by the border of Reuben, from the east side to the west side, a portion for Judah.

26~EZEKIEL 048|008` And by the border of Judah, from the east side to the west side, shall be the offering which you shall offer of five and twenty thousand reeds in breadth, and in length as one of the other parts, from the east side to the west side: and the sanctuary shall be in the midst of it.

26~EZEKIEL 048|009` The oblation that you shall offer to the Lord shall be of five and twenty thousand in length, and of ten thousand in breadth.

26~EZEKIEL 048|010` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 048|011` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 048|012` And this oblation of the land that is offered shall be to them a thing most holy by the border of the Levites.

26~EZEKIEL 048|013` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 048|014` And they shall not sell of it, neither exchange, nor alienate the firstfruits of the land: for it is holy to the Lord.

26~EZEKIEL 048|015` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 048|016` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 048|017` 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.

26~EZEKIEL 048|018` 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 to them that serve the city.

26~EZEKIEL 048|019` And they that serve the city shall serve it out of all the tribes of Israel.

26~EZEKIEL 048|020` All the oblation shall be five and twenty thousand by five and twenty thousand: you shall offer the holy oblation foursquare, with the possession of the city.

26~EZEKIEL 048|021` 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 the west border, over against the portions for the prince: and it shall be the holy oblation; and the sanctuary of the house shall be in the midst thereof.

26~EZEKIEL 048|022` 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 prince.

26~EZEKIEL 048|023` As for the rest of the tribes, from the east side to the west side, Benjamin shall have a portion.

26~EZEKIEL 048|024` And by the border of Benjamin, from the east side to the west side, Simeon shall have a portion.

26~EZEKIEL 048|025` And by the border of Simeon, from the east side to the west side, Issachar a portion.

26~EZEKIEL 048|026` And by the border of Issachar, from the east side to the west side, Zebulun a portion.

26~EZEKIEL 048|027` And by the border of Zebulun, from the east side to the west side, Gad a portion.

26~EZEKIEL 048|028` And by the border of Gad, at the south side southward, the border shall be even from Tamar to the waters of strife in Kadesh, and to the river toward the great sea.

26~EZEKIEL 048|029` This is the land which you shall divide by lot to the tribes of Israel for inheritance, and these are their portions, saith the Lord God.

26~EZEKIEL 048|030` And these are the goings out of the city on the north side, four thousand and five hundred measures.

26~EZEKIEL 048|031` And the gates of the city shall be after the names of the tribes of Israel: three gates northward; one gate of Reuben, one gate of Judah, one gate of Levi.

26~EZEKIEL 048|032` And at the east side four thousand and five hundred: and three gates; and one gate of Joseph, one gate of Benjamin, one gate of Dan.

26~EZEKIEL 048|033` And at the south side four thousand and five hundred measures: and three gates; one gate of Simeon, one gate of Issachar, one gate of Zebulun.

26~EZEKIEL 048|034` At the west side four thousand and five hundred, with their three gates; one gate of Gad, one gate of Asher, one gate of Naphtali.

26~EZEKIEL 048|035` It was round about eighteen thousand measures: and the name of the city from that day shall be, the Lord is there.
