9:9 Then He said heto unto me, The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is exceedingvery, very great, and the land is fullfilled ofwith blood, and the city is full of wrestingperversion; of judgment: for they say, JehovahThe hathLord has forsaken the land, and Jehovahthe seethLord does not. see!
9:10 AndBut as for me alsoMe, mineMy eye shallwill nothave spare,no neitherpity willnor shall I have pityspare, but I willshall bring their wayconduct upon their headheads.
9:11 And,Then behold, the man clothed in linen, whoat hadwhose theloins inkhornwas bythe hiswriting side,case reported the matter, saying, I have done just as thouThou hast commanded me.
10:1 Then I looked, and, behold, in the firmamentexpanse that was over the headheads of the cherubim theresomething appearedlike above them as it were a sapphire stone, asin the appearance ofresembling thea likenessthrone, ofappeared aabove thronethem.
10:2 And heHe spakespoke untoto the man clothed in linen, and said, GoEnter in between the whirling wheels, even under the cherubcherubim, and fill bothyour thy hands with coals of fire from between the cherubim, and scatter them over the city. And he wententered in in my sight.
10:3 Now the cherubim stoodwere standing on the right side of the house,temple when the man wententered, in; and the cloud filled the inner court.
10:4 AndThen the glory of Jehovahthe mountedLord went up from the cherub, andto stood over the threshold of the house;temple, and the housetemple was filled with the cloud, and the court was fullfilled ofwith the brightness of Jehovahsthe glory of the Lord.
10:5 AndMoreover, the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard evenas tofar as the outer court, aslike the voice of God Almighty when heHe speakethspeaks.
10:6 And it came toabout pass, when heHe commanded the man clothed in linen, saying, Take fire from between the whirling wheels, from between the cherubim, that he wententered in, and stood beside a wheel.
10:7 AndThen the cherub stretched forthout his hand from between the cherubim untoto the fire thatwhich was between the cherubim, and took thereof,some and put it into the hands of himthe thatone was clothed in linen, who took it and went out.
10:8 And therethe cherubim appeared into thehave cherubim the form of a mans hand under their wings.
10:9 AndThen I looked, and behold, four wheels beside the cherubim, one wheel beside oneeach cherub, and another wheel beside another cherub; and the appearance of the wheels was like untothe gleam of a berylTarshish stone.
10:10 And as for their appearance, theyall four of them had onethe same likeness, as if aone wheel hadwere been within aanother wheel.
10:11 When they wentmoved, they went in any of their four directions: theywithout turnedturning not as they went,; but tothey thefollowed placein whither the headdirection lookedwhich they followedfaced, it;without theyturning turned not as they went.
10:12 And their whole body, and their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels, were full of eyes roundall aboutaround, even the wheels thatbelonging theyto all four hadof them.
10:13 AsThe for the wheels, they were called in my hearing, the whirling wheels.
10:14 And everyeach one had four faces:. theThe first face was the face of thea 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.
10:15 AndThen the cherubim mountedrose up:. thisThey isare the living creaturebeings that I saw by the river Chebar.
10:16 AndNow when the cherubim wentmoved, the wheels wentwould go beside them; andalso when the cherubim lifted up their wings to mountrise up from the earthground, the wheels alsowould turned not turn from beside them.
10:17 When theythe cherubim stood still, thesethe stoodwheels would stand still; and when they mountedrose up, thesethe mountedwheels upwould rise with them:; for the spirit of the living creaturebeings was in them.
10:18 AndThen the glory of Jehovahthe wentLord forthdeparted from over the threshold of the house,temple and stood over the cherubim.
10:19 AndWhen the cherubim departed, they lifted up their wings, and mountedrose up from the earth in my sight whenwith they went forth, and the wheels beside them:; and they stood still at the doorentrance of the east gate of Jehovahsthe Lords house;. andAnd the glory of the God of Israel washovered over them above.
10:20 ThisThese isare the living creaturebeings that I saw underbeneath the God of Israel by the river Chebar; andso I knew that they were cherubim.
10:21 EveryEach one had four faces, and everyeach one four wings;, and thebeneath likenesstheir ofwings was the handsform of ahuman man was under their wingshands.
10:22 AndAs as for the likeness of their faces, they were the same faces whichwhose appearance I sawhad seen by the river Chebar,. theirEach appearancesone and themselves; they went every one straight forwardahead.
11:1 Moreover, the Spirit lifted me up, and brought me untoto the east gate of Jehovahsthe Lords house, which lookethfaced eastward:. andAnd behold, there were twenty five men at the doorentrance of the gate, five and twentyamong men;them and I saw in the midst of them Jaazaniah the son of Azzur, and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, princesleaders of the people.
11:2 And heHe said untoto me, Son of man, these are the men thatwho devise iniquity, and that give wickedevil counseladvice in this city;,
11:3 thatwho say, TheIs timenot isthe nottime near to build houses:? thisThis city is the caldron,pot and we are the flesh.
11:4 Therefore, prophesy against them, prophesy, O son of man., prophesy!
11:5 AndThen the Spirit of Jehovahthe Lord fell upon me, and heHe said untoto me, SpeakSay, Thus saithsays Jehovah:the ThusLord, haveSo yeyou saidthink, O house of Israel;, for I know the things that come into your mindthoughts.
11:6 YeYou have multiplied your slain in this city, andfilling yeits have filled the streets thereof with the slainthem.

11:8 YeYou have feared thea sword; andso I will bring thea sword upon you, saith the Lord JehovahGod declares.
11:9 And I willshall bring you forth out of the midst thereofof the city, and I shall deliver you into the hands of strangers, and will execute judgments amongagainst you.
11:10 YeYou shallwill fall by the sword;. I willshall judge you into the border of Israel; andso yeyou shall know that I am Jehovahthe Lord.
11:11 This city shallwill not be youra caldronpot for you, neithernor shallwill yeyou be the flesh in the midst thereof;of it, but I willshall judge you into the border of Israel;.
11:12 andThus yeyou shallwill know that I am Jehovah:the Lord; for yeyou have not walked in myMy statutes, neithernor have yeyou executed mineMy ordinances, but have doneacted afteraccording to the ordinances of the nations thataround are round about you.
11:13 AndNow it came toabout pass,as when I prophesied, that Pelatiah the son of Benaiah died. Then fell I downfell uponon my face, and cried out with a loud voice, and said, AhAlas, Lord JehovahGod! wiltWilt thouThou makebring athe fullremnant end of theIsrael remnantto ofa Israelcomplete end?
11:14 AndThen the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
11:15 Son of man, thyyour brethrenbrothers, evenyour thy brethrenrelatives, theyour menfellow of thy kindredexiles, and all the whole house of Israel, all of them, are theythose untoto whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, GetGo you far from Jehovahthe Lord; untothis usland ishas thisbeen land given forus as a possession.
11:16 Therefore say, Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, WhereasThough I havehad removed them far offaway among the nations, and whereasthough I havehad scattered them among the countries, yet will I bewas to them a sanctuary for them a little while in the countries where they arehad comegone.
11:17 Therefore say, Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, I willshall gather you from the peoples, and assemble you out of the countries whereamong yewhich you have been scattered, and I willshall give you the land of Israel.
11:18 AndWhen they shall come thitherthere, and they shallwill takeremove away all theits detestable things thereof and all theits abominations thereof from thenceit.
11:19 And I willshall give them one heart, and Ishall will put a new spirit within you;them. andAnd I willshall take the stony heart of stone out of their flesh, and will give them a heart of flesh;,
11:20 that they may walk in myMy statutes, and keep mineMy ordinances, and do them:. andThen they shallwill be myMy people, and I willshall be their God.
11:21 But as for themthose whose hearthearts walkethgo after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, I willshall bring their wayconduct upondown on their own heads, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod.
11:22 Then did the cherubim liftlifted up their wings, andwith the wheels were beside them;, and the glory of the God of Israel washovered over them above.
11:23 And the glory of Jehovahthe Lord went up from the midst of the city, and stood uponover the mountain which is on the east side of the city.
11:24 And the Spirit lifted me up, and brought me in thea vision by the Spirit of God into Chaldea, to themthe ofexiles thein captivityChaldea. So the vision that I had seen wentleft up from me.
11:25 Then I spaketold unto them of the captivityexiles all the things that Jehovahthe Lord had showedshown me.
12:1 TheThen the word of Jehovahthe alsoLord came untoto me, saying,
12:2 Son of man, thouyou dwellestlive in the midst of the rebellious house, thatwho have eyes to see, andbut seedo not see, that have ears to hear, andbut heardo not hear; for they are a rebellious house.

12:6 InLoad theirthe sightbaggage shalton thouyour bearshoulder itin upontheir thy shouldersight, and carry it forthout in the dark;. thouYou shaltshall cover thyyour face, so that thouyou seecan not see the land:, for I have set theeyou foras a sign untoto the house of Israel.
12:7 And I did so, as I washad been commanded:.

12:8 And in the morning came the word of Jehovahthe untoLord came to me, saying,

12:10 Say thouto unto them, Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, This burden concernethconcerns the prince in Jerusalem, andas well as all the house of Israel amongwho whomare theyin areit.
12:11 Say, I am youra sign: liketo asyou. As I have done, so shall it will be done untoto them; they shallwill go into exile, into captivity.
12:12 And the prince thatwho is among them shallwill bearload uponhis baggage on his shoulder in the dark, and shall go forth:out. theyThey shallwill dig a hole through the wall to carrybring it out. thereby:He hewill shall cover his face, becauseso that he shallcan not see the land with his eyes.
12:13 MyI netshall also willspread IMy spreadnet uponover him, and he shallwill be takencaught in myMy snare;. andAnd I willshall bring him to Babylon toin the land of the Chaldeans; yet shall he will not see it, though he shallwill die there.
12:14 And I willshall scatter towardto every wind all thatwho are roundaround about him, tohis helphelpers him, and all his bandstroops; and I willshall draw out thea sword after them.
12:15 AndSo they shallwill know that I am Jehovah,the Lord when I shallscatter disperse them among the nations, and scatterspread them throughamong the countries.
12:16 But I willshall leavespare a few men of them from the sword, from the famine, and from the pestilence; that they may declaretell all their abominations among the nations whitherwhere they come;go, and theymay shall know that I am Jehovahthe Lord.
12:17 Moreover, the word of Jehovahthe Lord came to me, saying,
12:18 Son of man, eat thyyour bread with quakingtrembling, and drink thyyour water with tremblingquivering and with fearfulness;anxiety.
12:19 andThen say untoto the people of the land, Thus saithsays the Lord JehovahGod concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem, andin the land of Israel:, They shallwill eat their bread with fearfulness,anxiety and drink their water inwith dismayhorror, thatbecause hertheir land maywill be desolate,stripped and despoiled of allits thatfulness ison therein,account because of the violence of all themwho thatlive dwellin thereinit.
12:20 And the inhabited cities thatwill are inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land shallwill be a desolation;. andSo yeyou shallwill know that I am Jehovahthe Lord.
12:21 AndThen the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
12:22 Son of man, what is this proverb thatyou yepeople have inconcerning the land of Israel, saying, The days are prolonged,long and every vision failethfails ?
12:23 TellTherefore say to them therefore, Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, I will make this proverb to cease, andso that they shallwill no morelonger use it as a proverb in Israel;. butBut saytell unto them, The days aredraw atnear hand,as andwell as the fulfilmentfulfillment of every vision.
12:24 For there shallwill be no morelonger be any false vision noror flattering divination within the house of Israel.
12:25 For I amthe Jehovah;Lord Ishall will speak, and thewhatever word that I shall speak shallwill be performed;. itIt shallwill be no morelonger deferred:be delayed, for in your days, O rebellious house, will I shall speak the word, and will perform it, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod.
12:26 AgainFurthermore, the word of Jehovahthe Lord came to me, saying,
12:27 Son of man, behold, they of the house of Israel sayis saying, The vision that he seethsees is for many daysyears tofrom comenow, and he prophesiethprophesies of times that are far off.
12:28 Therefore say untoto them, Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, ThereNone shall none of myMy words will be deferreddelayed any more,longer. butWhatever the word which I shall speak shallwill be performed, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod.
13:1 AndThen the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
13:2 Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel thatwho prophesy, and say thouto untothose themwho that prophesy outfrom of their own heartinspiration, HearListen yeto the word of Jehovah:the Lord!
13:3 Thus saithsays the Lord JehovahGod, Woe untoto the foolish prophets, thatwho followare following their own spirit, and have seen nothing!.
13:4 O Israel, thyyour prophets have been like foxes inamong the waste placesruins.
13:5 YeYou have not gone up into the gapsbreaches, neithernor builtdid upyou build the wall foraround the house of Israel, to stand in the battle inon the day of Jehovahthe Lord.
13:6 They havesee seen falsehood and lying divination who are saying, thatThe sayLord declares, Jehovahwhen saith;the butLord Jehovahhas hath not sent them:; andyet they have made men to hope thatfor the wordfulfillment wouldof betheir confirmedword.
13:7 HaveDid yeyou not seensee a false vision, and havespeak yea notlying spokendivination awhen lyingyou divinationsaid, inThe thatLord ye saydeclares, Jehovahbut saith;it albeitis not I who have not spoken?
13:8 Therefore, thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, Because yeyou have spoken falsehood, and seen liesa lie, therefore, behold, I am against you, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod.
13:9 AndSo myMy hand shallwill be against the prophets thatwho see false visions, and thatutter divinelying lies:divinations. theyThey shallwill nothave beno place in the council of myMy people, neithernor shallwill they be written down in the writingregister of the house of Israel, neithernor shallwill they enter into the land of Israel;, andthat yeyou shallmay know that I am the Lord JehovahGod.
13:10 Because,It evenis definitely because they have seducedmisled myMy people, by saying, Peace;! andwhen there is no peace;. andAnd when oneanyone buildethbuilds up a wall, behold, they daubplaster it over with untempered mortar:whitewash;
13:11 sayso untotell themthose thatwho daubplaster it over with untempered mortarwhitewash, that it shallwill fall:. thereA shallflooding berain anwill overflowingcome, shower; and yeyou, O great hailstones, shallwill fall; and a stormyviolent wind shallwill rendbreak itout.
13:12 LoBehold, when the wall ishas fallen, shallwill ityou not be said unto youasked, Where is the daubingplaster wherewithwith yewhich haveyou daubedplastered it?

13:14 So will I breakshall tear down the wall thatwhich yeyou haveplastered daubedover with untemperedwhitewash mortar, and bring it down to the ground, so that theits foundation thereofis shalllaid be uncoveredbare; and when it shall fallfalls, andyou yewill shall be consumed in theits midst. thereof:And andyou yewill shall know that I am Jehovahthe Lord.
13:15 Thus will I accomplishshall myspend My wrath uponon the wall, and uponon themthose thatwho have daubedplastered it over with untempered mortarwhitewash; and I willshall say untoto you, The wall is nogone more,and neitherits theyplasterers thatare daubed it;gone,
13:16 toalong wit,with the prophets of Israel thatwho prophesy concerningto Jerusalem, and thatwho see visions of peace for her, andwhen there is no peace, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod.
13:17 AndNow thouyou, son of man, set thyyour face against the daughters of thyyour people, thatwho prophesyare outprophesying offrom their own heart;inspiration. andProphesy prophesy thou against them,
13:18 and say, Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, Woe to the women thatwho sew pillowsmagic uponbands on all elbowswrists, and make kerchiefsveils for the headheads of persons of every stature to hunt soulsdown lives! Will yeyou hunt down the soulslives of myMy people, andbut savepreserve soulsthe alivelives of others for yourselves?
13:19 And ye have profaned me among my people for handfuls of barley and forfragments pieces of bread, you have profaned Me to slayMy thepeople soulsto thatput to death some who should not die, and to savekeep theothers souls alive thatwho should not live, by your lying to myMy people thatwho hearkenlisten untoto lies.
13:20 WhereforeTherefore, thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, Behold, I am against your pillows,magic wherewithbands yeby therewhich you hunt thelives soulsthere toas make them flybirds, and I will tear them fromoff your arms; and I will let thethem souls go, even thethose soulslives thatwhom yeyou hunt toas make them flybirds.
13:21 YourI kerchiefswill also willtear Ioff tear,your veils and deliver myMy people outfrom of your handhands, and they shallwill be no morelonger be in your handhands to be hunted; and yeyou shallwill know that I am Jehovahthe Lord.
13:22 Because withyou liesdisheartened ye have grieved the heartrighteous ofwith thefalsehood righteous,when whom I havedid not madecause sadhim grief, andbut strengthenedhave theencouraged hands of the wicked, thatnot heto shouldturn not return from his wicked way, and bepreserve savedhis alive;life,
13:23 therefore, yeyou shallwomen will no morelonger see false visions, noror divinepractice divinations:divination, and I will deliver myMy people out of your hand;. andThus yeyou shallwill know that I am Jehovahthe Lord.
14:1 Then camesome certain of the elders of Israel untocame to me, and sat down before me.
14:2 And the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
14:3 Son of man, these men have takenset up their idols intoin their hearthearts, and have put right before their faces the stumblingblockstumbling block of their iniquity. beforeShould their face: should I be inquiredconsulted ofby them at all by them?
14:4 Therefore speak untoto them, and saytell unto them, Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, EveryAny man of the house of Israel thatwho takethsets up his idols intoin his heart, andputs puttethright before his face the stumblingblockstumbling block of his iniquity before his face, and comeththen comes to the prophet;, I Jehovahthe Lord will answerbe brought to give him thereinan accordinganswer toin the matter in view of the multitude of his idols;,

14:6 Therefore say untoto the house of Israel, Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, ReturnRepent ye, and turn yourselvesaway from your idols;, and turn away your faces away from all your abominations.
14:7 For everyanyone one of the house of Israel, or of the strangersimmigrants thatwho sojournstay in Israel, thatwho separatethseparates himself from meMe, andsets takethup his idols intoin his heart, andputs puttethright before his face the stumblingblockstumbling block of his iniquity before his face, and comeththen comes to the prophet to inquire of Me for himself, ofI me;the ILord Jehovah will be brought to answer him byin myself:My own person.
14:8 andAnd I willshall set myMy face against that man, and will make him an astonishment, for a sign and a proverb, and I willshall cut him off from theamong midstMy of my people;. andSo yeyou shallwill know that I am Jehovahthe Lord.
14:9 AndBut if the prophet beis deceivedprevailed andupon to speak a word, it is I, Jehovahthe Lord, who have deceivedprevailed upon that prophet, and I will stretch out myMy hand uponagainst him, and will destroy him from theamong midstMy of my people Israel.
14:10 And they shallwill bear the punishment of their iniquity:; as the iniquity of the prophetinquirer shallis, beso even as the iniquity of himthe thatprophet seekethwill unto him;be,
14:11 in order that the house of Israel may go no morelonger astraystray from me,Me neitherand no longer defile themselves any more with all their transgressions;. butThus that they maywill be myMy people, and I mayshall be their God, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod.
14:12 AndThen the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
14:13 Son of man, whenif a landcountry sinnethsins against meMe by committing a trespassunfaithfulness, and I stretch out myMy hand uponagainst it, anddestroy breakits thesupply staff of the bread thereof, and send famine uponagainst it, and cut off from it both man and beast;,
14:14 even though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in itits midst, theyby shouldtheir deliverown butrighteousness theirthey owncould soulsonly bydeliver their righteousnessthemselves, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod.
14:15 If I were to cause evilwild beasts to pass through the land, and they ravagedepopulated it, and it bebecame made desolate, so that no manone maywould pass through it because of the beasts;,
14:16 though these three men were in itits midst, as I live, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod, they shouldcould not deliver neithereither their sons noror their daughters;. theyThey onlyalone shouldwould be delivered, but the landcountry shouldwould be desolate.
14:17 Or if I should bring a sword uponon that land,country and say, Sword,Let gothe sword pass through the land;country soand that I cut off from it man and beast; from it,
14:18 even though these three men were in itits midst, as I live, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod, they shouldcould not deliver neithereither their sons noror their daughters, but they onlyalone shouldwould be delivered themselves.
14:19 Or if I should send a pestilenceplague intoagainst that land,country and pour out myMy wrath uponin itblood inon bloodit, to cut off from it man and beast; from it,
14:20 even though Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in itits midst, as I live, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod, they shouldcould not deliver neithereither their son noror their daughter;. theyThey shouldwould but deliver theironly ownthemselves souls by their righteousness.
14:21 For thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, How much more when I send myMy four soresevere judgments uponagainst Jerusalem,: the sword, and the famine, andwild the evil beasts, and theplague pestilence, to cut off from it man and beast from it!
14:22 Yet, behold, thereinsurvivors shallwill be left ain remnantit thatwho shallwill be carriedbrought forthout, both sons and daughters:. beholdBehold, they shallare going to come forth untoto you, and yeyou shallwill see their wayconduct and their doingsactions; andthen yeyou shallwill be comforted concerningfor the evilcalamity thatwhich I have brought uponagainst Jerusalem, evenfor concerningeverything allwhich that I have brought upon it.
14:23 AndThen they shallwill comfort you, when yeyou see their wayconduct and theiractions, doings;for andyou yewill shall know that I have not done withoutin causevain allwhatever that I havedid doneto in it, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod.
15:1 AndThen the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
15:2 Son of man, whathow is the wood of the vine treebetter more than any tree,wood theof vinea branch which is among the trees of the forest?
15:3 ShallCan wood be taken thereoffrom it to make anyanything, work? or willcan men take a pinpeg offrom it on which to hang any vessel thereon?
15:4 Behold,If it ishas castbeen put into the fire for fuel;, and the fire hathhas devouredconsumed both theof its ends of it, and theits midstmiddle ofpart ithas isbeen burned:charred, is it profitablethen useful for any workanything?
15:5 Behold, whenwhile it wasis wholeintact, it wasis meetnot formade nointo work:anything. howHow much less, when the fire hathhas devouredconsumed it, and it is burnedcharred, shallcan it yetstill be meetmade forinto any workanything!
15:6 Therefore, thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, As the wood of the vine tree among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so willhave I givegiven up the inhabitants of Jerusalem.;
15:7 Andand I will set myMy face against them;. Though they shallhave gocome forthout fromof the fire, butyet the fire shallwill devourconsume them;. andThen yeyou shallwill know that I am Jehovahthe Lord, when I set myMy face against them.
15:8 AndThus I will make the land desolate, because they have committedacted a trespassunfaithfully, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod.
16:1 AgainThen the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
16:2 Son of man, causemake Jerusalemknown to knowJerusalem her abominations;,
16:3 and say, Thus saithsays the Lord JehovahGod untoto Jerusalem:, ThyYour birthorigin and thyyour nativitybirth isare offrom the land of the Canaanite;, theyour Amoritefather was thyan father,Amorite and thyyour mother was a Hittite.
16:4 AndAs as for thyyour nativitybirth, inon the day thouyou wastwere born thyyour navel cord was not cut, neithernor wastwere thouyou washed inwith water tofor cleanse theecleansing; thouyou wastwere not saltedrubbed atwith all,salt noror swaddledeven atwrapped allin cloths.
16:5 No eye pitiedlooked thee,with pity on you to do any of these things untofor theeyou, to have compassion uponon thee;you. butRather thouyou wastwere castthrown out ininto the open field, for thatyou thywere person was abhorred, inon the day thatyou thouwere wast born.
16:6 AndWhen when I passed by thee,you and saw theeyou welteringsquirming in thyyour blood, I said untoto thee,you Thoughwhile thouyou artwere in thyyour blood, live;Live! yea, I said untoto thee,you Thoughwhile thouyou artwere in thyyour blood, live.Live!
16:7 I causedmade theeyou tonumerous multiplylike asplants thatof which groweth in the field,. andThen thouyou didstgrew increaseup, andbecame wax greattall, and thoureached attainedstthe toage excellentfor ornamentfine ornaments; thyyour breasts were fashioned,formed and thyyour hair washad grown;. yetYet thouyou wastwere naked and bare.
16:8 NowThen when I passed by thee,you and lookedsaw upon theeyou, and behold, thyyou timewere wasat the time offor love; andso I spread myMy skirt over thee,you and covered thyyour nakedness:. yea, I swarealso untoswore thee,to you and entered into a covenant with thee,you saithso thethat Lordyou Jehovahbecame Mine, anddeclares thouthe becamestLord mineGod.
16:9 Then washed I theebathed you with water; yea, I thoroughly washed awayoff thyyour blood from theeyou, and I anointed theeyou with oil.
16:10 I also clothed theeyou also with broideredembroidered workcloth, and shodput theesandals withof sealskin,porpoise skin on your feet; and I girdedwrapped theeyou about with fine linen, and covered theeyou with silk.
16:11 And I deckedadorned theeyou with ornaments, and I put bracelets uponon thyyour hands, and a chainnecklace onaround thyyour neck.
16:12 And I also put a ring uponin thyyour nosenostril, andearrings ear rings in thineyour ears, and a beautiful crown uponon thyyour head.
16:13 Thus wastyou thouwere deckedadorned with gold and silver;, and thyyour raimentdress was of fine linen, and silk, and broideredembroidered work;cloth. thouYou didstate eat fine flour, and honey, and oil; andso thouyou wastwere exceedingexceedingly beautiful, and thouadvanced didstto prosper unto royal estateroyalty.
16:14 AndThen thyyour renownfame went forth among the nations foron thyaccount of your beauty;, for it was perfect, throughbecause myof majestyMy splendor which I hadbestowed puton upon theeyou, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod.
16:15 But thouyou didsttrusted trust in thyyour beauty, and playedstplayed the harlot because of thyyour renownfame, and pouredstyou poured out thyyour whoredomsharlotries on every onepasser thatby passedwho by;might hisbe it waswilling.
16:16 And thouyou didsttook takesome of thyyour garmentsclothes, andmade madest for theeyourself high places deckedof withvarious divers colors, and playedstplayed the harlot uponon them:, thewhich likeshould thingsnever shall not come, neitherabout shallnor it be sohappen.
16:17 ThouYou didst also taketook thyyour fairbeautiful jewels made of myMy gold and of myMy silver, which I had given theeyou, and madestmade for theeyourself male images ofthat men,you andmight didst play the harlot with them;.
16:18 andThen thouyou tookesttook thyyour broideredembroidered garments,cloth and coveredstcovered them, and didstoffered setMy mine oil and mineMy incense before them.
16:19 Also My bread also which I gave theeyou, fine flour, and oil, and honey, wherewithwith which I fed theeyou, thouyou didstwould evenoffer set it before them for a sweetsoothing savoraroma; andso thus it washappened, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod.
16:20 Moreover, thouyou hasttook takenyour thy sons and thy daughters, whom thouyou hasthad borne untoto meMe, and theseyou hast thou sacrificed unto them to idols to be devoured. Were thyyour whoredomsharlotries aso small a matter,?
16:21 thatYou thouslaughtered hastMy slain my children, and deliveredoffered them up, into idols by causing them to pass through the fire unto them?.
16:22 And inbesides all thineyour abominations and thyharlotries whoredomsyou thoudid hast not rememberedremember the days of thyyour youth, when thouyou wastwere naked and bare, and wastsquirming weltering in thyyour blood.
16:23 AndThen it iscame comeabout to pass after all thyyour wickedness woeWoe, woe untoto theeyou! saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod,
16:24 that thouyou hast built untoyourself thee a vaultedshrine place, and hast made theeyourself a loftyhigh place in every streetsquare.
16:25 ThouYou hast built thyyourself loftya high place at the headtop of every waystreet, and hast made thyyour beauty anabominable; abomination, and hastyou openedspread thyyour feetlegs to every onepasser that passed by, andto multipliedmultiply thyyour whoredomharlotry.
16:26 ThouYou hast also committedplayed fornicationthe harlot with the Egyptians, thyyour lustful neighbors, great of flesh; and hast multiplied thyyour whoredom,harlotry to provokemake meMe to angerangry.
16:27 Behold thereforenow, I have stretched out myMy hand overagainst thee,you and have diminished thineyour ordinaryrations. food,And andI delivered theeyou untoup to the willdesire of themthose thatwho hate theeyou, the daughters of the Philistines, thatwho are ashamed of thyyour lewd wayconduct.
16:28 ThouMoreover, hastyou played the harlot also with the Assyrians, because thouyou wastwere insatiablenot satisfied; yea,you thoueven hast played the harlot with them, and yetstill thouwere wast not satisfied.
16:29 ThouYou hastalso moreover multiplied thyyour whoredomharlotry untowith the land of trafficmerchants, unto Chaldea;, and yet thoueven wastwith this you were not satisfied herewith.
16:30 How weaklanguishing is thyyour heart, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod, seeingwhile thouyou doestdo all these things, the workactions of ana impudentbold faced harlot;.
16:31 inWhen thatyou thoubuilt buildestyour thyshrine vaulted place at the headbeginning of every way,street and makestmade thyyour loftyhigh place in every streetsquare, andin hastdisdaining money, you were not beenlike as a harlot, in that thou scornest hire.
16:32 AYou adulteress wife, thatwho committethtakes adultery! that taketh strangers instead of her husband!
16:33 TheyMen give gifts to all harlots;, but thouyou givestgive thyyour gifts to all thyyour lovers, andto bribestbribe them, thatto they may come untoto theeyou onfrom every sidedirection for thyyour whoredomsharlotries.
16:34 AndThus thouyou artare different from otherthose women in thyyour whoredomsharlotries, in that noneno followethone theeplays to play the harlot; andas whereasyou thoudo, givestbecause hire,you give money and no hiremoney is given untoyou; thee,thus thereforeyou thouare art different.
16:35 WhereforeTherefore, O harlot, hear the word of Jehovah:the Lord.
16:36 Thus saithsays the Lord JehovahGod, Because thyyour filthinesslewdness was poured out, and thyyour nakedness uncovered through thyyour whoredomsharlotries with thyyour lovers; and becausewith of all theyour detestable idols of thy abominations, and forbecause of the blood of thyyour children,sons thatwhich thouyou didstgave giveto unto them;idols,
16:37 therefore, behold, I willshall gather all thyyour lovers, with whom thouyou hasttook taken pleasure, andeven all themthose thatwhom thouyou hast loved, withand all themthose thatwhom thouyou hast hated;. So I willshall even gather them against theeyou onfrom every side,direction and willexpose uncoveryour thy nakedness untoto them, that they may see all thyyour nakedness.
16:38 AndThus I willshall judge theeyou, aslike women thatwho breakcommit wedlockadultery andor shed blood are judged; and I willshall bring uponon theeyou the blood of wrath and jealousy.
16:39 I willshall also give theeyou into theirthe handhands of your lovers, and they shallwill throwtear down thyyour vaulted placeshrines, anddemolish breakyour downhigh thy lofty places;, and they shall strip theeyou of thyyour clothesclothing, and take thyaway fairyour jewels;, and theywill shall leave theeyou naked and bare.
16:40 They shallwill alsoincite bring up a companycrowd against theeyou, and they shallwill stone theeyou withand stones,cut andyou thrustto theepieces through with their swords.
16:41 And they shallwill burn thyyour houses with fire, and execute judgments uponon theeyou in the sight of many women;. andThen I willshall causestop theeyou to cease from playing the harlot, and thouyou shaltwill also give no hirelonger anypay moreyour lovers.
16:42 So will I causeshall mycalm wrathMy towardfury theeagainst to restyou, and myMy jealousy shallwill depart from theeyou, and I willshall be quiet,pacified and willangry be no more angry.
16:43 Because thouyou hasthave not remembered the days of thyyour youth, but hasthave ragedenraged againstMe meby in all these things; therefore, behold, I alsoin turn will bring thyyour wayconduct upondown thyon your own head, saithdeclares the Lord Jehovah:God, andso thouthat shaltyou will not commit this lewdness withon top of all thineyour other abominations.
16:44 Behold, everyeveryone onewho thatquotes useth proverbs shallwill usequote this proverb againstconcerning theeyou, saying, AsLike is the mother, solike is her daughter.
16:45 ThouYou artare the daughter of thyyour mother, thatwho loathethloathed her husband and her children;. andYou thouare artalso the sister of thyyour sisters, who loathed their husbands and their children:. yourYour mother was a Hittite, and your father an Amorite.
16:46 AndNow thineyour elderolder sister is Samaria, thatwho dwellethlives atnorth thyof leftyou hand,with she and her daughters; and thyyour younger sister, thatwho dwellethlives atsouth thyof right handyou, is Sodom andwith her daughters.
16:47 Yet hastyou thouhave not merely walked in their ways, noror done afteraccording to their abominations; but, as if that were atoo very little thing, thouyou wastacted more corruptcorruptly than they in all thyyour waysconduct than they.
16:48 As I live, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod, Sodom, thyyour sister hath not done, sheand nor her daughters, ashave thounot hast done, thouas you and thyyour daughters have done.
16:49 Behold, this was the iniquityguilt of thyyour sister Sodom: pride,she fulnessand ofher bread,daughters andhad prosperousarrogance, easeabundant wasfood, in her and incareless herease, daughters;but neithershe did shenot strengthenhelp the hand of the poor and needy.
16:50 AndThus they were haughty, and committed abominationabominations before me:Me. thereforeTherefore I tookremoved them awaywhen as I saw goodit.
16:51 NeitherFurthermore, hath Samaria committeddid not commit half of thyyour sins;, butfor thouyou hasthave multiplied thineyour abominations more than they,. andThus hastyou justifiedhave thymade your sisters appear righteous by all thineyour abominations which thouyou hasthave donecommitted.
16:52 ThouAlso also, bear thouyour thinedisgrace own shame, in that thouyou hasthave givenmade judgment favorable for thyyour sisters;. throughBecause thyof your sins thatin thouwhich hastyou committedacted more abominableabominably than they, they are more righteousin the right than thou:you. yeaYes, be thou also confounded,ashamed and bear thyyour shamedisgrace, in that thouyou hastmade justifiedyour thysisters sistersappear righteous.
16:53 AndNevertheless, I will turnrestore again their captivity, the captivity of Sodom and her daughters, and the captivity of Samaria and her daughters, and thealong captivitywith ofthem thyyour captivesown in the midst of them;captivity,
16:54 in order that thouyou mayestmay bear thineyour own shamehumiliation, and mayestfeel be ashamed becausefor of all that thouyou hasthave done, inwhen thatyou thoubecome art a comfortconsolation untoto them.
16:55 And thyyour sisters, Sodom andwith her daughters, shall return to their former estate; and Samaria andwith her daughters, shallwill return to their former estate;state, and thouyou andwith thyyour daughters shallwill also return to your former estatestate.
16:56 ForAs thythe name of your sister Sodom was not mentionedheard byfrom thyyour mouthlips in theyour day of thy pride,
16:57 before thyyour wickedness was uncovered, asso atnow theyou timehave ofbecome the reproach of the daughters of SyriaEdom, and of all thatwho are roundaround about her, of the daughters of the Philistines, thatthose dosurrounding despiteyou untowho theedespise round aboutyou.
16:58 ThouYou hasthave borne thythe penalty of your lewdness and thine abominations, saiththe JehovahLord declares.
16:59 For thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, I will also dealdo with theeyou as thouyou hasthave done, you who hasthave despised the oath inby breaking the covenant.
16:60 Nevertheless, I will remember myMy covenant with theeyou in the days of thyyour youth, and I will establish unto thee an everlasting covenant with you.
16:61 Then shaltyou thouwill remember thyyour ways, and be ashamed, when thouyou shalt receive thyyour sisters, thineboth elderyour sistersolder and thyyour younger; and I will give them untoto theeyou foras daughters, but not bybecause thyof your covenant.
16:62 AndThus I will establish myMy covenant with thee;you, and thouyou shaltshall know that I am Jehovah;the Lord,
16:63 in order that thouyou mayestmay remember, and be confoundedashamed, and never open thyyour mouth anyanymore more, because of thyyour shamehumiliation, when I have forgiven theeyou for all that thouyou hasthave done, saith the Lord JehovahGod declares.
17:1 AndNow the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
17:2 Son of man, putpropound forth a riddle, and speak a parable untoto the house of Israel;,
17:3 and saysaying, Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, A great eagle with great wings, and long pinions, fulland ofa feathers,full whichplumage hadof diversmany colors, came untoto Lebanon, and took away the top of the cedar:.
17:4 heHe croppedplucked off the topmost of theits young twigs thereof, and carriedbrought it untoto a land of trafficmerchants; he set it in a city of merchantstraders.
17:5 He also took alsosome of the seed of the land, and planted it in afertile fruitful soil;. heHe placed it beside manyabundant waters; he set it aslike a willow tree.
17:6 AndThen it grew,sprouted and became a low, spreading vine ofwith lowits stature, whose branches turned toward him, andbut theits roots thereofremained were under him:it. soSo it became a vine, and broughtyielded forthshoots branches, and shotsent forthout sprigsbranches.
17:7 ThereBut there was also another great eagle with great wings and manymuch feathers:plumage; and, behold, this vine didbent bend its roots toward him, and shotsent forthout its branches toward him, from the beds ofwhere itsit plantationwas planted, that he might water it.
17:8 It was planted in a good soil bybeside manyabundant waters, that it might bringyield forth branches, and that it might bear fruit, thatand itbecome might be a goodlysplendid vine.
17:9 Say thou, Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, ShallWill it prosperthrive? shallWill he not pull up theits roots thereof, and cut off theits fruit thereof, so that it maywithers wither;so that all its freshsprouting springing leaves may wither? andAnd notneither by agreat strongstrength armnor orby muchmany people can it be raised from theits roots thereofagain.
17:10 YeaBehold, behold,though beingit is planted, shallwill it prosperthrive? shallWill it not utterlycompletely wither, whenas soon as the east wind touchethstrikes it? it shall wither inon the beds where it grew.?
17:11 Moreover, the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
17:12 Say now to the rebellious house, KnowDo yeyou not know what these things mean? tell themSay, Behold, the king of Babylon came to Jerusalem, and took theits king thereof, and the princes thereof, and brought them to him toin Babylon.
17:13 And he took one of the seed royal, family and made a covenant with him;, heputting also brought him under an oath,. andHe also took away the mighty of the land;,
17:14 that the kingdom might be basein subjection, that it might not liftexalting itself up, but that by keeping his covenant, that it might standcontinue.
17:15 But he rebelled against him inby sending his ambassadorsenvoys intoto Egypt, that they might give him horses and muchmany peopletroops. ShallWill he prospersucceed? shallWill he escapewho thatdoes doeth such things escape? shallCan he indeed break the covenant, and yet escape?
17:16 As I live, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod, surelySurely in the placecountry whereof the king dwellethwho thatput made him kingon the throne, whose oath he despised, and whose covenant he brakebroke, even with him in the midst of Babylon he shall die.
17:17 NeitherAnd shall Pharaoh with his mighty army and great company will not help him in the war, when they cast up mounds and build forts,siege walls to cut off many personslives.
17:18 ForNow he hath despised the oath by breaking the covenant;, and behold, he hadpledged given his handallegiance, and yet hathdid done all these things; he shall not escape.
17:19 Therefore, thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, As I live, surely mineMy oath thatwhich he hath despised, and myMy covenant thatwhich he hath brokenbroke, I will eveninflict bringon it upon his own head.
17:20 And I will spread myMy net uponover him, and he shallwill be takencaught in myMy snare,. andThen I will bring him to Babylon, and will enter into judgment with him there forregarding histhe trespassunfaithful thatact which he hathhas trespassedcommitted against meMe.
17:21 And all histhe fugitiveschoice men in all his bandstroops shallwill fall by the sword, and theythe thatsurvivors remainwill shall be scattered towardto every wind:; and yeyou shallwill know that I, Jehovahthe Lord, have spoken it.
17:22 Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, I willshall also take ofa sprig from the lofty top of the cedar, and will set it out; I willshall croppluck off from the topmost of its young twigs a tender one, and I willshall plant it uponon a high and lofty mountain:.
17:23 inOn the high mountain of the height of Israel will I shall plant it;, andthat it shallmay bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and bebecome a goodlystately cedar:. andAnd underbirds itof shallevery dwellkind allwill birdsnest ofunder every wingit; they will nest in the shade of theits branches thereof shall they dwell.
17:24 And all the trees of the field shallwill know that I, Jehovah,am havethe broughtLord; I bring down the high tree, haveexalt exalted the low tree, havedry dried up the green tree, and havemake made the dry tree to flourish:. I, Jehovah,am the Lord; I have spoken, and haveI donewill perform it.
18:1 TheThen the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me again, saying,
18:2 What meando ye,you thatmean yeby useusing this proverb concerning the land of Israel, saying, The fathers haveeat eatenthe sour grapes, andBut the childrens teeth are set on edge ?
18:3 As I live, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod, yeyou shallare surely not havegoing occasion any more to use this proverb in Israel anymore.
18:4 Behold, all souls are mineMine; as the soul of the father, soas alsowell as the soul of the son is mine:Mine. theThe soul thatwho sinneth,sins itwill shall die.
18:5 But if a man beis justrighteous, and dopractices thatjustice which is lawful and rightrighteousness,
18:6 and hathdoes not eateneat uponat the mountains,mountain neithershrines hathor liftedlift up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, neitheror hathdefile defiled his neighbors wife, neitheror hathapproach come near to a woman induring her impurity,menstrual period
18:7 andif hatha man does not wrongedoppress anyanyone, but hathrestores restored to the debtor his pledge, hathdoes takennot noughtcommit by robbery, hathbut givengives his bread to the hungry, and hathcovers covered the naked with a garment;clothing,
18:8 if he thatdoes hath not givenlend forthmoney uponon interest, neitheror hathtake taken any increase, thatif hathhe withdrawnkeeps his hand from iniquity, hathand executedexecutes true justice between man and man,
18:9 hathif walkedhe walks in myMy statutes, and hathMy keptordinances mineso ordinances,as to deal truly;faithfully he is just,righteous heand shallwill surely live, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod.
18:10 IfThen he begetmay ahave son that is a robber,violent ason shedderwho ofsheds blood, and thatwho doethdoes any one of these things, to a brother
18:11 andthough thathe doethhimself did not do any of thosethese dutiesthings, butthat is, he even hatheats eatenat upon the mountainsmountain shrines, and defileddefiles his neighbors wife,
18:12 hathoppresses wronged the poor and needy, hathcommits taken by robbery, hathdoes not restoredrestore thea pledge, andbut hathlifts lifted up his eyes to the idols, hathand committedcommits abomination,
18:13 hathhe givenlends forthmoney uponon interest, and hathtakes taken increase; shallwill he then live? heHe shallwill not live:! heHe hathhas donecommitted all these abominations;, he shallwill surely diebe put to death; his blood shallwill be uponon himhis own head.
18:14 Now, lobehold, if he begethas a son, thatwho seethhas observed all his fathers sins, which he hath donecommitted, and feareth,observing anddoes doeth not suchdo like;likewise.
18:15 thatHe hathdoes not eateneat uponat the mountains,mountain neithershrines hathor liftedlift up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, hathor notdefile defiled his neighbors wife,

18:18 As for his father, because he cruellypracticed oppressedextortion, robbed his brother, and did thatwhat whichwas is not good among his people, behold, he shallwill die infor his iniquity.
18:19 Yet you say ye, WhereforeWhy dothshould not the son not bear the iniquitypunishment offor the fatherfathers iniquity? When the son hathhas donepracticed thatjustice which is lawful and rightrighteousness, and hathhas keptobserved all myMy statutes, and hath done them, he shall surely live.
18:20 The soulperson thatwho sinneth,sins itwill shall die:. theThe son shallwill not bear the iniquitypunishment offor the fatherfathers iniquity, neithernor shallwill the father bear the iniquitypunishment offor the sonsons iniquity; the righteousness of the righteous shallwill be upon himhimself, and the wickedness of the wicked shallwill be upon himhimself.
18:21 But if the wicked turnman turns from all his sins thatwhich he hathhas committed, and keepobserves all myMy statutes, and dopractices thatjustice which is lawful and rightrighteousness, he shall surely live,; he shall not die.
18:22 NoneAll of his transgressions thatwhich he hathhas committed shallwill not be remembered against him:; inbecause of his righteousness thatwhich he hathhas donepracticed, he shallwill live.
18:23 HaveDo I have any pleasure in the death of the wicked?, saithdeclares the Lord Jehovah;God, andrather notthan rather that he should returnturn from his way,ways and live?
18:24 But when thea righteous turnethman turns away from his righteousness, andcommits committeth iniquity, and doethdoes according to all the abominations that thea wicked man doethdoes, shallwill he live? NoneAll of his righteous deeds thatwhich he hathhas done shallwill not be remembered: infor his trespasstreachery thatwhich he hathhas trespassed,committed and in his sin thatwhich he hathhas sinned,committed; infor them shall he will die.
18:25 Yet yeyou say, The way of the Lord is not equalright. Hear now, O house of Israel:! Is notMy my way equalnot right? areIs it not your ways unequalthat are not right?
18:26 When thea righteous man turnethturns away from his righteousness, andcommits committeth iniquity, and diethdies therein;because inof it, for his iniquity thatwhich he hathhas donecommitted shall he will die.
18:27 Again, when thea wicked man turnethturns away from his wickedness thatwhich he hathhas committed, and doethpractices thatjustice which is lawful and rightrighteousness, he shallwill save his soul alivelife.
18:28 Because he considereth,considered and turnethturned away from all his transgressions thatwhich he hathhad committed, he shall surely live,; he shall not die.
18:29 YetBut saith the house of Israel says, The way of the Lord is not equalright. Are My ways not right, O house of Israel,? areIs it not myyour ways equal?that are not your ways unequalright?
18:30 Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, everyeach one according to his waysconduct, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod. ReturnRepent ye, and turn yourselvesaway from all your transgressions;, so that iniquity shallmay not bebecome youra ruinstumbling block to you.
18:31 Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereinwhich yeyou have transgressed;committed, and make youyourselves a new heart and a new spirit:! forFor why will yeyou die, O house of Israel?
18:32 For I have no pleasure in the death of himanyone thatwho diethdies, saithdeclares the Lord Jehovah:God. whereforeTherefore, turnrepent yourselves, and live.
19:1 MoreoverAs for you, take thou up a lamentation for the princes of Israel,
19:2 and say, What was thyyour mother? A lioness: she couched among lions,! inShe thelay midstdown ofamong the young lions, sheShe nourishedreared her whelpscubs.
19:3 AndWhen she brought up one of her whelps:cubs, heHe became a young lion, andAnd he learned to catchtear thehis prey; heHe devoured men.
19:4 TheThen nations also heard ofabout him; heHe was takencaptured in their pit;, andAnd they brought him with hooks untoTo the land of Egypt.
19:5 NowWhen when she saw, thatas she had waited, andThat her hope was lost, thenShe she took another of her whelps,cubs andAnd made him a young lion.
19:6 And he wentwalked upabout and down among the lions; heHe became a young lion, andHe he learned to catchtear thehis prey; heHe devoured men.
19:7 And he knewdestroyed their palaces,fortified andtowers And laid waste their cities; andAnd the land was desolate, and theits fulness thereof,were becauseappalled Because of the noisesound of his roaring.
19:8 Then the nations set against him onOn every side from thetheir provinces;, andAnd they spread their net over him; heHe was takencaptured in their pit.
19:9 And they put him in a cage with hooks, andAnd brought him to the king of Babylon; theyThey brought him intoin strongholds,hunting nets So that his voice should be heard no more beOn heard upon the mountains of Israel.
19:10 ThyYour mother was like a vine, in thyyour bloodvineyard, plantedPlanted by the waters:; itIt was fruitful and full of branches byBecause reason of manyabundant waters.
19:11 And it had strong rodsbranches fit for thescepters sceptres of them that bare rulerulers, andAnd theirits statureheight was exaltedraised amongabove the thickclouds boughs,So andthat theyit werewas seen in theirits height with the multitudemass of theirits branches.
19:12 But it was plucked up in fury,; itIt was cast down to the ground,; andAnd the east wind dried up its fruit:. itsIts strong rodsbranch werewas brokentorn off andSo that it withered; theThe fire consumed themit.
19:13 And now it is planted in the wilderness, inIn a dry and thirsty land.
19:14 And fire ishas gone out offrom theits rodsbranch; ofIt itshas branches,consumed itits hathshoots devouredand its fruit, soSo that there is not in it noa strong rodbranch, toA bescepter a sceptre to rule. This is a lamentation, and shallhas bebecome for a lamentation.
20:1 AndNow it came toabout pass in the seventh year, in the fifth month, on the tenth day of the month, that certain of the elders of Israel came to inquire of Jehovahthe Lord, and sat before me.
20:2 And the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
20:3 Son of man, speak untoto the elders of Israel, and say untoto them, Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, IsDo ityou come to inquire of me that ye are comeMe? As I live, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod, I will not be inquired of by you.
20:4 WiltWill thouyou judge them, sonwill ofyou manjudge them, wiltson thouof judge themman? CauseMake them to know the abominations of their fathers;
20:5 and say untoto them, Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, InOn the day when I chose Israel, and swareswore untoto the seeddescendants of the house of Jacob, and made myselfMyself known untoto them in the land of Egypt, when I swareswore untoto them, saying, I am Jehovahthe Lord your God;,
20:6 inon that day I swareswore untoto them, to bring them forth out offrom the land of Egypt into a land that I had searchedselected out for them, flowing with milk and honey, which is the glory of all lands.
20:7 And I said untoto them, Cast ye away, everyeach manof you, the abominationsdetestable things of his eyes, and defiledo not defile yourselves with the idols of Egypt; I am Jehovahthe Lord your God.
20:8 But they rebelled against me,Me and wouldwere not hearkenwilling untoto melisten to Me; they did not every man cast away the abominationsdetestable things of their eyes, neithernor did they forsake the idols of Egypt. Then I saidresolved Ito would pour out myMy wrath uponon them, to accomplish myMy anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt.
20:9 But I wroughtacted for mythe namessake sakeof My name, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, among whichwhom they werelived, in whose sight I made myselfMyself known untoto them, inby bringing them forth out of the land of Egypt.
20:10 So I causedtook them to go forth out of the land of Egypt, and brought them into the wilderness.
20:11 And I gave them myMy statutes, and showedinformed them mineof My ordinances, by which, if a man doobserves them, he shallwill live in them.
20:12 MoreoverAnd also I gave them myMy sabbaths, to be a sign between meMe and them, that they might know that I am Jehovahthe thatLord sanctifiethwho sanctifies them.
20:13 But the house of Israel rebelled against meMe in the wilderness:. theyThey walkeddid not walk in myMy statutes, and they rejected mineMy ordinances, by which, if a man keepobserves them, he shallwill live in them; and myMy sabbaths they greatly profaned. Then I saidresolved Ito would pour out myMy wrath uponon them in the wilderness, to consumeannihilate them.
20:14 But I wroughtacted for mythe namessake sakeof My name, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, inbefore whose sight I had brought them out.
20:15 MoreoverAnd also I swareswore untoto 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;,
20:16 because they rejected mineMy ordinances, and walkedas for My statutes, they did not walk in mythem; statutes,they andeven profaned myMy sabbaths:, for their heart continually went after their idols.
20:17 NeverthelessYet mineMy eye spared them, andrather Ithan destroyeddestroying them not, neitherand did I makedid anot fullcause endtheir ofannihilation them in the wilderness.
20:18 And I said untoto their children in the wilderness, WalkDo ye not walk in the statutes of your fathers, neitheror observekeep their ordinances, noror defile yourselves with their idols.
20:19 I am Jehovahthe Lord your God:; walk in myMy statutes, and keep mineMy ordinances, and doobserve them;.
20:20 andAnd hallowsanctify myMy sabbaths; and they shall be a sign between meMe and you, that yeyou may know that I am Jehovahthe Lord your God.
20:21 But the children rebelled against meMe; they walkeddid not walk in myMy statutes, neithernor keptwere minethey ordinancescareful to doobserve themMy ordinances, by which, if a man doobserves them, he shallwill live in them; they profaned myMy sabbaths. ThenSo I saidresolved Ito would pour out myMy wrath uponon them, to accomplish myMy anger against them in the wilderness.
20:22 NeverthelessBut I withdrew myMy hand, and wroughtacted for mythe namessake sakeof My name, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, in whose sight I had brought them forthout.
20:23 MoreoverAlso I swareswore untoto them in the wilderness, that I would scatter them among the nations, and disperse them throughamong the countries;lands,
20:24 because they had not executedobserved mineMy ordinances, but had rejected myMy statutes, and had profaned myMy sabbaths, and their eyes were afteron the idols of their fathers idols.
20:25 MoreoverAnd I also I gave them statutes that were not good, and ordinances whereinby which they shouldcould not live;
20:26 and I pollutedpronounced them inunclean because of their own gifts, in that they caused all their first born to pass through the fire allso that openeth the womb, that I might make them desolate, toin theorder end that they might know that I am Jehovahthe Lord.
20:27 Therefore, son of man, speak untoto the house of Israel, and say untoto them, Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, InYet in this moreover have your fathers have blasphemed me,Me inby thatacting theytreacherously have committed a trespass against meMe.
20:28 ForWhen when I had brought them into the land, which I swareswore to give untoto them, then they saw every high hill, and every thickleafy tree, and they offered there their sacrifices, and there they presented the provocation of their offering;. thereThere also they made their sweetsoothing savoraroma, and there they poured out there their drink offeringslibations.
20:29 Then I said untoto them, What meanethis the high place whereuntoto yewhich you go? So theits name thereof is called Bamah untoto this day.
20:30 WhereforeTherefore, say untoto the house of Israel, Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, DoWill yeyou pollutedefile yourselves after the manner of your fathers? and play ye the harlot after their abominationsdetestable things?
20:31 andAnd when yeyou offer your gifts, when yeyou makecause your sons to pass through the fire, doyou yeare pollutedefiling yourselves with all your idols untoto this day?. andAnd shall I be inquired of by you, O house of Israel? As I live, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod, I will not be inquired of by you;.
20:32 andAnd thatwhat whichcomes cometh into your mind shallwill not become at allabout, inwhen thatyou ye say,: We will be aslike the nations, aslike the familiestribes of the countrieslands, toserving serve wood and stone.
20:33 As I live, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod, surely with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with wrath poured out, will I shall be king over you.
20:34 And I willshall bring you out from the peoples, and will gather you outfrom of the countrieslands whereinwhere yeyou are scattered, with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with wrath poured out;
20:35 and I willshall bring you into the wilderness of the peoples, and there will I shall enter into judgment with you face to face.
20:36 LikeAs as I entered into judgment with your fathers in the wilderness of the land of Egypt, so I will I enter into judgment with you, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod.
20:37 And I willshall causemake you to pass under the rod, and I willshall bring you into the bond of the covenant;
20:38 and I willshall purge out from among you the rebels, and themthose thatwho transgress against meMe; I willshall bring them forth out of the land where they sojourn, but they shallwill not enter into the land of Israel:. andThus yeyou shallwill know that I am Jehovahthe Lord.
20:39 As for you, O house of Israel, thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, Go ye, serve everyeveryone one his idols,; andbut hereafter alsolater, ifyou ye will notsurely hearkenlisten untoto me;Me, butand myMy holy name shallyou yewill profane no morelonger profane with your gifts, and with your idols.
20:40 For inon myMy holy mountain, inon the high mountain of the height of Israel, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod, there shallthe allwhole the house of Israel, all of them, will serve meMe in the land:; there will I shall accept them, and there will I requireshall seek your offerings,contributions and the firstchoicest fruits of your oblationsgifts, with all your holy things.
20:41 As a sweetsoothing savoraroma will I shall accept you, when I bring you out from the peoples, and gather you outfrom of the countrieslands whereinwhere yeyou haveare been scattered; and I willshall beprove sanctifiedMyself inholy among you in the sight of the nations.
20:42 And yeyou shallwill know that I am Jehovahthe Lord, when I shall bring you into the land of Israel, into the countryland which I swareswore to give untoto your fathersforefathers.
20:43 And there shallyou yewill remember your ways, and all your doingsdeeds, whereinwith yewhich you have polluteddefiled yourselves; and yeyou shallwill loathe yourselves in your own sight for all yourthe evilsevil things that yeyou have committeddone.
20:44 AndThen yeyou shallwill know that I am Jehovah,the Lord when I have dealt with you for myMy names sake, not according to your evil ways, noror according to your corrupt doingsdeeds, O ye house of Israel, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod.
20:45 AndNow the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
20:46 Son of man, set thyyour face toward the southTeman, and dropspeak thyout wordagainst toward the south, and prophesy against the forest land of the field in the South;Negev,
20:47 and say to the forest of the SouthNegev, Hear the word of Jehovahthe Lord: Thusthus saithsays the Lord JehovahGod, Behold, I willam about to kindle a fire in theeyou, and it shall devourconsume every green tree in theeyou, andas well as every dry tree:; the flamingblazing flame shallwill not be quenched, and allthe faceswhole surface from the south to the north shallwill be burntburned therebyby it.
20:48 And all flesh shallwill see that I, Jehovahthe Lord, have kindled it; it shall not be quenched.
20:49 Then I said I, Ah Lord JehovahGod! theyThey sayare saying of me, Is he not ajust speakerspeaking of parables?
21:1 And the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
21:2 Son of man, set thyyour face toward Jerusalem, and dropspeak thyagainst word toward the sanctuaries, and prophesy against the land of Israel;
21:3 and say to the land of Israel, Thus saithsays Jehovah:the Lord, Behold, I am against thee,you; and willI shall draw forthMy my sword out of its sheath, and will cut off from theeyou the righteous and the wicked.
21:4 SeeingBecause then that I willshall cut off from theeyou the righteous and the wicked, therefore shallMy my sword shall go forth outfrom of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north:.

21:8 AndAgain the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
21:9 Son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus saithsays Jehovah:the Lord. Say, A sword, a sword, it is sharpened, andAnd also furbished;polished!

21:17 I willshall also smiteclap myMy hands together, and I willshall causeappease myMy wrath; to rest: I, Jehovahthe Lord, have spoken it.
21:18 TheAnd the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me again, saying,
21:19 AlsoAs for you, thou son of man, appointmake thee two ways, thatfor the sword of the king of Babylon mayto come; theyboth twainof shallthem comewill forthgo out of one land:. andAnd markmake out a place,signpost; markmake it out at the head of the way to the city.
21:20 ThouYou shaltshall appointmark a way for the sword to come to Rabbah of the childrensons of Ammon, and to Judah ininto fortified Jerusalem the fortified.
21:21 For the king of Babylon stoodstands at the parting of the way, at the head of the two ways, to use divination:; he shookshakes the arrows to and fro, he consultedconsults the teraphimhousehold idols, he lookedlooks inat the liver.
21:22 InInto his right hand wascame the divination, for Jerusalem, to set battering rams, to open the mouth infor the slaughter, to lift up the voice with shoutinga battle cry, to set battering rams against the gates, to cast up mounds, to build fortsa siege wall.
21:23 And it shallwill be untoto them aslike a false divination in their sight,eyes; whothey have sworn solemn oaths. untoBut them; but he bringethbrings iniquity to remembrance, that they may be takenseized.
21:24 Therefore, thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, Because yeyou have made your iniquity to be remembered, in that your transgressions are uncovered, so that in all your doingsdeeds your sins do appear; because thatyou yehave are come to remembrance, yeyou shallwill be takenseized with the hand.
21:25 And thouyou, O deadlyslain, wounded wicked one, the prince of Israel, whose day ishas come, in the time of the iniquitypunishment of the end,
21:26 thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, Remove the mitreturban, and take off the crown; this shallwill be no more the same;. exaltExalt that which is low, and abase that which is high.
21:27 IA willruin, overturna ruin, overturna ruin, overturnI shall make it:. thisThis also shallwill be no more, until heHe comecomes whose right it is; and I willshall give it himto Him.
21:28 And thouyou, son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus saithsays the Lord JehovahGod concerning the childrensons of Ammon, and concerning their reproach;, and say: thou, A sword, a sword is drawn, polished for the slaughter it is furbished, to cause it to devourconsume, that it may be aslike lightning;

21:30 CauseReturn it to return into its sheath. In the place where thouyou wastwere created, in the land of thyyour birthorigin, will I shall judge theeyou.
21:31 And I willshall pour out mineMy indignation uponon theeyou; I willshall blow uponon theeyou with the fire of myMy wrath;, and I willshall delivergive theeyou into the hand of brutishbrutal men, skilfulskilled toin destroydestruction.
21:32 ThouYou shaltwill be for fuel tofor the fire; thyyour blood shallwill be in the midst of the land;. thouYou shaltwill not be no more remembered:, for I, Jehovahthe Lord, have spoken it.
22:1 MoreoverThen the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
22:2 And thouyou, son of man, wiltwill thouyou judge, wiltwill thouyou judge the bloody city? thenThen cause her to know all her abominations.
22:3 And thouyou shaltshall say, Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, A city thatshedding sheddeth blood in theher midst, ofso her, that her time maywill come, and that makethmakes idols, againstcontrary herself to defileher herinterest, for defilement!
22:4 ThouYou arthave become guilty inby thythe blood thatwhich thouyou hasthave shed, and art defiled inby thineyour idols which thouyou hasthave made;. andThus thouyou hasthave causedbrought thyyour daysday to draw near, and arthave come evento untoyour thy years:; therefore I have I made theeyou a reproach untoto the nations, and a mocking to all the countrieslands.
22:5 Those thatwho are near, and those thatwho are far from thee,you shallwill mock theeyou, thouyou infamousof oneill andrepute, full of tumultturmoil.
22:6 Behold, the princesrulers of Israel, everyeach one according to his power, have been in theeyou tofor shedthe purpose of shedding blood.
22:7 InThey thee have theytreated set light by father and mother; inlightly thewithin midstyou. ofThe theealien they have theyoppressed dealtin byyour oppressionmidst; with the sojourner;fatherless inand theethe havewidow they have wronged thein fatherless and the widowyou.
22:8 ThouYou hasthave despised myMy holy things, and hast profaned myMy sabbaths.
22:9 Slanderous men have been in theeyou tofor shedthe purpose of shedding blood;, and in theeyou they have eaten uponat the mountains:mountain inshrines. theIn your midst of thee they have committed acts of lewdness.
22:10 In theeyou they have they uncovered their fathers nakedness; in theeyou they have they humbled her thatwho was unclean in her menstrual impurity.
22:11 And one hathhas committed abomination with his neighbors wife;, and another hathhas lewdly defiled his daughter in law;. andAnd another in theeyou hathhas humbled his sister, his fathers daughter.
22:12 In theeyou they have they taken bribes to shed blood; thouyou hasthave taken interest and increaseprofits, and thouyou hasthave greedilyinjured gainedyour ofneighbors thyfor neighborsgain by oppression, and hastyou have forgotten meMe, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod.
22:13 Behold, thereforethen, I havesmite smittenMy my hand at thyyour dishonest gain which thouyou hasthave made,acquired and at thythe bloodbloodshed which hathis beenamong in the midst of theeyou.
22:14 Can thyyour heart endure, or can thyyour hands be strong, in the days that I shall deal with theeyou? I, Jehovahthe Lord, have spoken it, and willshall do itact.
22:15 And I willshall scatter theeyou among the nations, and I shall disperse theeyou through the countries;lands, and I willshall consume thyyour filthinessuncleanness outfrom of theeyou.
22:16 And thouyou shaltwill beprofane profanedyourself in thyself, in the sight of the nations;, and thouyou shaltwill know that I am Jehovahthe Lord.
22:17 And the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
22:18 Son of man, the house of Israel ishas become dross untoto me:Me; all of them are brassbronze and tin and iron and lead, in the midst of the furnace; they are the dross of silver.
22:19 Therefore, thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, Because yeall areof allyou have become dross, therefore, behold, I willam going to gather you into the midst of Jerusalem.
22:20 As they gather silver and brassbronze and iron and lead and tin into the midst of the furnace, to blow the fire uponon it, in order to melt it;, so will I shall gather you in mineMy anger and in myMy wrath, and I willshall lay you there, and melt you.
22:21 Yea,And I willshall gather you, and blow uponon you with the fire of myMy wrath, and yeyou shallwill be melted in the midst thereofof it.
22:22 As silver is melted in the midst of the furnace, so shallyou yewill be melted in the midst thereofof it; and yeyou shallwill know that I, Jehovahthe Lord, have poured out myMy wrath uponon you.
22:23 And the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
22:24 Son of man, say untoto her, ThouYou artare a land that is not cleansed, noror rained uponon in the day of indignation.
22:25 There is a conspiracy of her prophets in theher midst thereof, like a roaring lion raveningtearing the prey:. theyThey have devoured soulslives; they takehave taken treasure and precious things; they have made hermany widows many in the midst thereofof her.
22:26 Her priests have done violence to myMy law, and have profaned myMy holy things:; they have made no distinction between the holy and the commonprofane, neitherand they have theynot causedtaught menthe todifference discern between the unclean and the clean,; and havethey hidhide their eyes from myMy sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.
22:27 Her princes inwithin theher midst thereof are like wolves raveningtearing the prey, toby shedshedding blood, and todestroying destroylives souls,in thatorder theyto may get dishonest gain.
22:28 And her prophets have daubedsmeared whitewash for them with untempered mortar, seeing false visions, and divining lies untofor them, saying, Thus saithsays the Lord JehovahGod, when Jehovahthe hathLord has not spoken.
22:29 The people of the land have usedpracticed oppression, and exercisedcommitted robbery; yea, and they have vexedwronged the poor and needy, and have oppressed the sojourner wrongfullywithout justice.
22:30 And I soughtsearched for a man among them, thatwho should build up the wall, and stand in the gap before meMe for the land, that I should not destroy it; but I found noneno one.
22:31 ThereforeThus I have I poured out mineMy indignation uponon them; I have consumed them with the fire of myMy wrath:; their own way I have I brought upon their heads, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod.
23:1 The word of Jehovahthe Lord came againto unto me, again saying,
23:2 Son of man, there were two women, the daughters of one mother:;
23:3 and they played the harlot in Egypt;. theyThey played the harlot in their youth; there were their breasts were pressed, and there wastheir handledvirgin the bosom ofwas their virginityhandled.
23:4 And thetheir names of them were Oholah the elder, and Oholibah her sister:. andAnd they became mineMine, and they barebore sons and daughters. And as for their names, Samaria is Oholah, and Jerusalem is Oholibah.
23:5 And Oholah played the harlot whenwhile she was mineMine; and she dotedlusted onafter her lovers, onafter the Assyrians, her neighbors,
23:6 who were clothed within bluepurple, governors and rulersofficials, all of them desirable young men, horsemen riding uponon horses.
23:7 And she bestowed her whoredomsharlotries uponon them, all of whom were the choicest men of Assyria all of them; and onwith whomsoeverall whom she dotedlusted after, with all their idols she defiled herself.
23:8 NeitherAnd hath she leftdid not forsake her whoredomsharlotries sincefrom the daystime ofin Egypt; for in her youth theymen layhad lain with her, and they handled theher virgin bosom of her virginity; and they poured out their whoredomlust uponon her.
23:9 WhereforeTherefore, I deliveredgave her into the hand of her lovers, into the hand of the Assyrians, uponafter whom she dotedlusted.
23:10 TheseThey uncovered her nakedness; they took her sons and her daughters;, andbut her they slew her with the sword:. andThus she became a byword among women;, forand they executed judgments uponon her.
23:11 AndNow her sister Oholibah saw this, yet she was she more corrupt in her dotinglust than she, and in her whoredomsharlotries which were more than the whoredomsharlotries of her sister.
23:12 She dotedlusted uponafter the Assyrians, governors and rulersofficials, herthe neighborsones near, clothedmagnificently most gorgeouslydressed, horsemen riding uponon horses, all of them desirable young men.
23:13 And I saw that she washad defiled herself; they both took onethe same way.
23:14 AndSo she increased her whoredoms;harlotries. forAnd she saw men portrayed uponon the wall, the images of the Chaldeans portrayed with vermilion,
23:15 girded with girdlesbelts uponon their loins, with flowing turbans uponon their heads, all of them princeslooking tolike look uponofficers, afterlike the likeness of the Babylonians in Chaldea, the land of their nativitybirth.
23:16 And aswhen soon as she saw them she dotedlusted uponafter them, and sent messengers untoto them intoin Chaldea.
23:17 And the Babylonians came to her intoto the bed of love, and they defiled her with their whoredom,harlotry. andAnd when she washad pollutedbeen withdefiled by them, andshe herbecame souldisgusted waswith alienated from them.
23:18 SoAnd she uncovered her whoredoms,harlotries and uncovered her nakedness:; then myI soulbecame wasdisgusted alienatedwith from her, like as myI soulhad wasbecome alienateddisgusted fromwith her sister.
23:19 Yet she multiplied her whoredomsharlotries, remembering the days of her youth, whereinwhen she had played the harlot in the land of Egypt.
23:20 And she dotedlusted uponafter their paramours, whose flesh is aslike the flesh of asses,donkeys and whose issue is like the issue of horses.
23:21 Thus thouyou calledstlonged tofor remembrance the lewdness of thyyour youth, inwhen the handlingEgyptians ofhandled thyyour bosom bybecause theof Egyptians for the breasts of thyyour youth.

31:1 And it came toabout pass in the eleventh year, in the third month, inon the first day of the month, that the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
31:2 Son of man, say untoto Pharaoh king of Egypt, and to his multitude:, Whom artare thouyou like in thyyour greatness?
31:3 Behold, theAssyria Assyrian was a cedar in Lebanon withWith fairbeautiful branches, and with a forest like shade, andAnd ofvery high stature; andAnd its top was among the thick boughsclouds.
31:4 The waters nourishedmade it grow, the deep made it tohigh. grow:With theits rivers thereofit rancontinually roundextended aboutall around its plantation;planting andplace, And it sent out its channels untoto all the trees of the field.
31:5 Therefore its statureheight was exaltedloftier abovethan all the trees of the field; andAnd its boughs werebecame multiplied,many and its branches became long byBecause reason of many waters, whenas it shotspread them forthout.
31:6 All the birds of the heavens madenested their nests in its boughs;, andAnd under its branches did all the beasts of the field bringgave forthbirth, theirAnd young;all andgreat nations lived under its shadow dwelt all great nationsshade.
31:7 ThusSo it was itbeautiful fair in its greatness, in the length of its branches; forFor its rootroots wasextended byto many waters.
31:8 The cedars in theGods garden of God could not hidematch it; theThe fircypresses treescould were not likecompare with its boughs, andAnd the plane trees werecould not asmatch its branches;. norNo was any tree in theGods garden ofcould Godcompare likewith unto it in its beauty.
31:9 I made it fairbeautiful bywith the multitude of its branches, soAnd that all the trees of Eden, thatwhich were in the garden of God, enviedwere jealous of it.
31:10 Therefore, thus saidsays the Lord Jehovah:God, Because thouit artis exaltedhigh in stature, and heit hathhas set hisits top among the thick boughsclouds, and hisits heart is liftedhaughty up in hisits height;loftiness,
31:11 therefore, I will evengive deliverit him into the hand of thea mightydespot one of the nations; he shallwill surelythoroughly deal with him;it. According to its wickedness I have driven himit out for his wickednessaway.
31:12 And strangers,alien thetyrants terrible of the nations, have cut himit off,down and have left him:it; uponon the mountains and in all the valleys hisits branches arehave fallen, and hisits boughs arehave been broken byin all the watercoursesravines of the land;. andAnd all the peoples of the earth arehave gone down from hisits shadow,shade and have left himit.
31:13 UponOn hisits ruin all the birds of the heavens shallwill dwell,. andAnd all the beasts of the field shallwill be uponon hisits fallen branches;
31:14 toin theorder end that none of all the trees by the waters exaltmay themselvesnot be exalted in their stature, neithernor set their top among the thick boughsclouds, nor that their well watered mighty ones stand uperect in their height,. evenFor allthey thathave drinkall water:been forgiven theyover areto all delivered unto death, to the netherearth parts of the earthbeneath, inamong the midstsons of the children of men, with themthose thatwho go down to the pit.
31:15 Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, InOn the day when heit went down to Sheol I caused alamentations; mourning: I coveredclosed the deep forover him,it and Iheld restrainedback theits rivers. thereof;And andits themany great waters were stayed;stopped up, and I causedmade Lebanon to mourn for himit, and all the trees of the field faintedwilted foraway himon account of it.
31:16 I made the nations toquake shake at the sound of hisits fall, when I castmade himit go down to Sheol with themthose thatwho descendgo intodown to the pit; and all the well watered trees of Eden, the choicechoicest and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, were comforted in the netherearth parts of the earthbeneath.
31:17 They also went down intowith Sheolit withto himSheol untoto themthose thatwho arewere slain by the sword; yea,and theythose thatwho were hisits arm,strength thatlived dwelt under hisits shadowshade inamong the midst of the nations.
31:18 To whomwhich artamong thouthe trees of Eden are you thus likeequal in glory and in greatness among the trees of Eden? yetYet shaltyou thouwill be brought down with the trees of Eden untoto the netherearth partsbeneath; ofyou thewill earth: thou shalt lie in the midst of the uncircumcised, with themthose thatwho arewere slain by the sword. ThisSo is Pharaoh and all his multitude,! saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod.
32:1 And it came toabout pass in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, inon the first day of the month, that the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
32:2 Son of man, take up a lamentation over Pharaoh king of Egypt, and say untoto him, ThouYou wastcompared likenedyourself untoto a young lion of the nations:, yetYet artyou thouare aslike athe monster in the seas; andAnd thouyou didstburst break forth within thyyour rivers, andAnd troubledstmuddied the waters with thyyour feet, andAnd fouledstfouled their rivers.
32:3 Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, Now I will spread outMy my net uponover theeyou withWith a company of many peoples;, andAnd they shall bringlift theeyou up in myMy net.
32:4 And I will leave theeyou uponon the land,; I will cast theeyou forthon upon the open field,. andAnd I will cause all the birds of the heavens to settledwell uponon theeyou, andAnd I will satisfy the beasts of the whole earth with theeyou.

32:6 I will also watermake withthe thyland blooddrink the landdischarge whereinof thouyour swimmestblood, evenAs tofar as the mountains;, andAnd the watercoursesravines shall be full of theeyou.
32:7 And when I shall extinguish theeyou, I will cover the heavens, and makedarken thetheir stars thereof dark; I will cover the sun with a cloud, andAnd the moon shall not give its light.
32:8 All the brightshining lights ofin heaventhe willheavens I makewill darkdarken over thee,you andAnd will set darkness uponon thyyour land, saithDeclares the Lord JehovahGod.
32:9 I will also vextrouble the hearts of many peoples, when I shall bring thyyour destruction among the nations, into thelands countries which thouyou hasthave not known.
32:10 Yea,And I will make many peoples amazedappalled at theeyou, and their kings shall be horribly afraid forof thee,you when I shall brandish myMy sword before them; and they shall tremble at every moment, every man for his own life, inon the day of thyyour fall.
32:11 For thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, The sword of the king of Babylon shall come upon theeyou.
32:12 By the swords of the mighty willones I will cause thyyour multitude to fall; theall terribleof them are tyrants of the nations, areAnd they all: and they shall bringdevastate to nought the pride of Egypt, andAnd all theits multitude thereof shall be destroyed.
32:13 I will also destroy also all theits beastscattle thereof from beside many waters; neitherAnd shall the foot of man troubleshall not muddy them any moreanymore, norAnd the hoofs of beasts troubleshall not muddy them.
32:14 Then I will I make their waters clearsettle, andAnd will cause their rivers to run like oil, saithDeclares the Lord JehovahGod.
32:15 When I shall make the land of Egypt desolatea and wastedesolation, aAnd the land is destitute of that whereofwhich filled it was full, whenWhen I shall smite all themthose thatwho dwelllive thereinin it, thenThen they shall they know that I am Jehovahthe Lord.

32:22 AsshurAssyria is there and all her company; her graves are round about her;. allAll of them are slain, fallen by the sword;,

32:24 ThereElam is Elamthere and all her multitude roundaround about her grave; all of them slain, fallen by the sword, who arewent gone down uncircumcised intoto the netherlower parts of the earth, who causedinstilled their terror in the land of the living, and havebore borne their shamedisgrace with themthose thatwho gowent down to the pit.
32:25 They have setmade her a bed infor theher midstamong of the slain with all her multitude;. herHer graves are roundaround aboutit, her;they are all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword; foralthough their terror was causedinstilled in the land of the living, and they havebore borne their shamedisgrace with themthose thatwho go down to the pit:; hethey iswere put in the midst of themthe that are slain.

33:1 And the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
33:2 Son of man, speak to the childrensons of thyyour people, and say untoto them, WhenIf I bring thea sword upon a land, and the people of the land take aone man from among them, and setmake him for their watchman;
33:3 if,and when he seethsees the sword comecoming upon the land, and he blowblows on the trumpet, and warnwarns the people;,
33:4 then whosoeverhe hearethwho hears the sound of the trumpet, and takethdoes not take warning, ifand thea sword come,comes and taketakes him away, his blood shallwill be uponon his own head.
33:5 He heard the sound of the trumpet, andbut tookdid not take warning; his blood shallwill be uponon him;himself. whereasBut ifhad he had taken warning, he would have delivered his soullife.
33:6 But if the watchman seesees the sword come,coming and blowdoes not blow the trumpet, and the people beare not warned, and thea sword come,comes and taketakes anya person from among them;, he is taken away in his iniquity,; but his blood I will I require atfrom the watchmans hand.
33:7 SoNow thouas for you, son of man, I have setappointed theeyou a watchman untofor the house of Israel; thereforeso you will hear thea wordmessage atfrom myMy mouth, and give them warning from meMe.
33:8 When I say untoto the wicked, O wicked man, thouyou shaltshall surely die, and thouyou dostdo not speak to warn the wicked from his way;, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood I will I require atfrom thyyour hand.
33:9 Nevertheless,But if thouyou on your part warn thea wicked ofman his way to turn from ithis way, and he turndoes not turn from his way;, he shallwill die in his iniquity,; but thouyou hasthave delivered thyyour soullife.
33:10 AndNow thouas for you, son of man, say untoto the house of Israel:, Thus yeyou speakhave spoken, saying, OurSurely our transgressions and our sins are upon us, and we pineare rotting away in them; how then can we livesurvive?
33:11 Say untoto them, As I live,! saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod, I havetake no pleasure in the death of the wicked;, but rather that the wicked turn from his way and live:. turnTurn yeback, turn yeback from your evil ways;! forWhy whythen will yeyou die, O house of Israel?
33:12 And thouyou, son of man, say untoto theyour childrenfellow of thy peoplecitizens, The righteousness of thea righteous shallman will not deliver him in the day of his transgression;, and as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shallwill not fallstumble therebybecause of it in the day thatwhen he turnethturns from his wickedness; neitherwhereas shalla herighteous thatman iswill righteousnot be able to live therebyby inhis righteousness on the day thatwhen he sinnethcommits sin.
33:13 When I say to the righteous, that he shallwill surely live;, ifand he trustso totrusts in his righteousness, andthat commithe commits iniquity, none of his righteous deeds shallwill be remembered; but in histhat same iniquity thatof his which he hathhas committed, thereinhe shallwill he die.
33:14 Again,But when I say untoto the wicked, ThouYou shaltwill surely die;, ifand he turnturns from his sin, and dopractices thatjustice which is lawful and right;righteousness,
33:15 if thea wicked restoreman therestores a pledge, givepays againback thatwhat which he hadhas taken by robbery, walkwalks inby the statutes ofwhich ensure life, without committing no iniquity;, he shallwill surely live,; he shall not die.
33:16 None of his sins that he hathhas committed shallwill be remembered against him:. heHe hathhas donepracticed thatjustice which is lawful and rightrighteousness; he shallwill surely live.
33:17 Yet theyour childrenfellow ofcitizens thy people say, The way of the Lord is not equal:right, butwhen asit foris them, their own way that is not equalright.
33:18 When the righteous turnethturns from his righteousness, and committethcommits iniquity, then he shall even die thereinin it.
33:19 AndBut when the wicked turnethturns from his wickedness, and doethpractices thatjustice which is lawful and rightrighteousness, he shallwill live therebyby them.
33:20 Yet yeyou say, The way of the Lord is not equalright. O house of Israel, I will judge each of you everyaccording oneto after his ways.
33:21 AndNow it came toabout pass in the twelfth year of our captivityexile, inon the tenth month, in the fifth day of the tenth month, that onethe thatrefugees hadfrom escaped out of Jerusalem came untoto me, saying, The city ishas smittenbeen taken.
33:22 Now the hand of Jehovahthe Lord had been upon me in the evening, before hethe thatrefugees was escaped came;. andAnd heHe had opened my mouth, untilat hethe time they came to me in the morning; andso my mouth was opened, and I was no morelonger dumbspeechless.
33:23 AndThen the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
33:24 Son of man, they thatwho inhabitlive thosein these waste places in the land of Israel speak,are saying, Abraham was only one, andyet he inheritedpossessed the land:; butso weto us who are many; the land ishas been given usas fora inheritancepossession.
33:25 WhereforeTherefore, say untoto them, Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, YeYou eat meat with the blood in it, and lift up your eyes untoto your idols, andas you shed blood:. andShould shallyou yethen possess the land?
33:26 YeYou standrely uponon your sword, yeyou workcommit abominationabominations, and yeeach defileof everyyou onedefiles his neighbors wife:. andShould shallyou yethen possess the land?
33:27 Thus shaltyou thoushall say untoto them, Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, As I live, surely theythose thatwho are in the waste places shallwill fall by the sword;, and himwhoever that is in the open field I will I give to the beasts to be devoured;, and theythose thatwho are in the strongholds and in the caves shallwill die of the pestilence.
33:28 And I willshall make the land a desolation and ana astonishment;waste, and the pride of her power shallwill cease; and the mountains of Israel shallwill be desolate, so that noneno shallone will pass through.
33:29 Then shall they will know that I am Jehovahthe Lord, when I havemake made the land a desolation and ana astonishment,waste because of all their abominations which they have committed.
33:30 AndBut as for theeyou, son of man, theyour childrenfellow ofcitizens thywho people talk ofabout theeyou by the walls and in the doorsdoorways of the houses, and speak to one to another, everyeach one to his brother, saying, Come, I pray younow, and hear what is the wordmessage thatis comethwhich comes forth from Jehovahthe Lord.
33:31 And they come untoto theeyou as the people comethcome, and they sit before theeyou as myMy people, and they hear thyyour words, but they do not do them, not; for withthey theirdo mouththe theylustful showdesires muchexpressed loveby their mouth, butand their heart goethgoes after their gain.

33:33 AndSo when thisit comethcomes to pass behold,as surely it cometh,will then shall they will know that a prophet hathhas been amongin themtheir midst.
34:1 AndThen the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
34:2 Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel,. prophesy,Prophesy and say unto them, even to thethose shepherds, Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, Woe, unto the shepherds of Israel thatwho dohave feedbeen feeding themselves! shouldShould not the shepherds feed the sheepflock?
34:3 YeYou eat the fat, and ye clothe youyourselves with the wool, yeyou killslaughter the fatlings;fat butsheep yewithout feedfeeding not the sheepflock.
34:4 TheThose diseasedwho are sickly you have ye not strengthened, neitherthe diseased you have yenot healed, thatthe whichbroken wasyou sick, neither have yenot bound up, thatthe whichscattered wasyou broken, neither have yenot brought back that which was driven away, neithernor have yeyou sought thatfor whichthe was lost; but with force and with rigorseverity you have yedominated ruled over them.
34:5 And they were scattered, becausefor therelack wasof noa shepherd;, and they became food tofor allevery thebeast beasts of the field, and were scattered.
34:6 My sheepflock wandered through all the mountains, and uponon every high hill: yea, myand sheepMy wereflock was scattered uponover all the facesurface of the earth; and there was noneno thatone didto search or seek afterfor them.
34:7 Therefore, yeyou shepherds, hear the word of Jehovahthe Lord:
34:8 As I live, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod, surely forasmuchbecause asMy myflock sheephas becamebecome a prey, andMy myflock sheephas becameeven become food tofor all the beasts of the field, becausefor therelack wasof noa shepherd, neitherand My shepherds did mynot shepherds search for myMy sheepflock, but rather the shepherds fed themselves, and feddid not myfeed sheepMy flock;
34:9 therefore, yeyou shepherds, hear the word of Jehovahthe Lord:
34:10 Thus saithsays the Lord JehovahGod, Behold, I am against the shepherds;, and I willshall requiredemand myMy sheep atfrom theirthem hand, and causemake them to cease from feeding the sheep;. neitherSo shall the shepherds will not feed themselves anyanymore, more;but and I willshall deliver myMy sheepflock from their mouth, that they may not be food for them.
34:11 For thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, Behold, I myself,Myself even I, will search for myMy sheep, and will seek them out.
34:12 As a shepherd seekethcares outfor his flockherd in the day thatwhen he is among his sheep that are scattered abroadsheep, so I will Icare seekfor outMy my sheep; and I will deliver them outfrom of all the places whitherto which they havewere been scattered inon thea cloudy and darkgloomy day.
34:13 And I will bring them out from the peoples, and gather them from the countries, and will bring them intoto their own land; and I will feed them uponon the mountains of Israel, by the watercoursesstreams, and in all the inhabited places of the countryland.

34:16 I will seek thatthe which was lost, and will bring back thatthe which was driven awayscattered, and will bind up thatthe which was broken, and will strengthen thatthe which was sick:; but the fat and the strong I will destroy;. I will feed them inwith justicejudgment.
34:17 And as for you, OMy my flock, thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, Behold, I will judge between one sheep and sheepanother, between the rams and the hemale goats.
34:18 SeemethIs it too slight a small thing untofor you tothat haveyou fedshould uponfeed in the good pasture, butthat yeyou must tread down with your feet the residuerest of your pasturepastures? andOr tothat haveyou drunkshould drink of the clear waters, butthat yeyou must foul the residuerest with your feet?
34:19 And as for myMy sheepflock, they must eat thatwhat whichyou yetread havedown trodden with your feet, and they must drink thatwhat whichyou yefoul have fouled with your feet.!
34:20 Therefore, thus saithsays the Lord JehovahGod untoto them:, Behold, I, even I, will judge between the fat sheep and the lean sheep.
34:21 Because yeyou thrustpush with side and with shoulder, and pushthrust at all the diseasedweak with your horns, tilluntil yeyou have scattered them abroad;,
34:22 therefore, I will Ideliver saveMy my flock, and they shallwill no morelonger be a prey; and I will judge between one sheep and sheepanother.
34:23 AndThen I will set upover them one shepherd, overMy themservant David, and he shallwill feed them, even my servant David; he shallwill feed them, himself and he shall be their shepherd.
34:24 And I, Jehovahthe Lord, will be their God, and myMy servant David will be prince among them; I, Jehovahthe Lord, have spoken it.
34:25 And I will make with them a covenant of peace, with them and willeliminate causeharmful evil beasts tofrom cease out of the land;, andso that they shallmay dwelllive securely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods.
34:26 And I will make them and the places roundaround aboutMy my hill a blessing;. andAnd I will cause theshowers shower to come down in itstheir season; therethey shallwill be showers of blessing.
34:27 AndAlso the tree of the field shallwill yield its fruit, and the earth shallwill yield its increase, and they shallwill be secure inon their land;. andThen they shallwill know that I am Jehovahthe Lord, when I have broken the bars of their yoke, and have delivered them outfrom of the hand of those thatwho madeenslaved bondmen of them.
34:28 And they shallwill no morelonger be a prey to the nations, neitherand shall the beasts of the earth will not devour them; but they shallwill dwelllive securely, and noneno shallone will make them afraid.
34:29 And I will raiseestablish upfor unto them a plantationrenowned forplanting renownplace, and they shallwill benot noagain morebe consumedvictims withof famine in the land, neitherand bearthey will not endure the shameinsults of the nations any moreanymore.

34:31 AndAs yefor myyou, My sheep, the sheep of myMy pasture, you are men, and I am your God, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod.

35:8 And I will fill its mountains with its slain:; inon thyyour hills and in thyyour valleys and in all thyyour watercoursesravines shallthose they fall that are slain withby the sword will fall.
35:9 I will make theeyou aan perpetualeverlasting desolation, and thyyour cities shallwill not be inhabited;. andThen yeyou shallwill know that I am Jehovahthe Lord.
35:10 Because thouyou hasthave said, These two nations and these two countrieslands shallwill be mine, and we will possess it;them, whereasalthough Jehovahthe Lord was there:,
35:11 therefore, as I live, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod, I will dodeal with you according to thineyour anger, and according to thineyour envy which thouyou hast showed outbecause of thyyour hatred against them; andso I will make myselfMyself known among them, when I shall judge theeyou.

35:13 And yeyou have magnifiedspoken yourselvesarrogantly against meMe with your mouth, and have multiplied your words against me:Me; I have heard it.
35:14 Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, WhenAs all the whole earth rejoicethrejoices, I will make theeyou desolatea desolation.
35:15 As thouyou didstrejoiced rejoice over the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was desolate, so I will I do untoto thee:you. thouYou shaltwill be desolatea desolation, O mountMount Seir, and all Edom, even all of it;. andThen they shallwill know that I am Jehovahthe Lord.
36:1 And thouyou, son of man, prophesy untoto the mountains of Israel, and say, YeO mountains of Israel, hear the word of Jehovahthe Lord.
36:2 Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, Because the enemy hathhas saidspoken against you, Aha! and, The ancienteverlasting highheights placeshave arebecome oursour in possession;,

36:4 thereforeTherefore, yeO mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord Jehovah:God. Thus saithsays the Lord JehovahGod to the mountains and to the hills, to the watercoursesravines and to the valleys, to the desolate wastes and to the forsaken cities that are forsaken, which arehave become a prey and a derision to the residuerest of the nations thatwhich are round about;,
36:5 therefore, thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, Surely in the fire of myMy jealousy I have I spoken against the residuerest of the nations, and against all Edom, thatwho haveappropriated appointedMy my land untofor themselves foras a possession with thewholehearted joy ofand all their heart, with despitescorn of soul, to castdrive it out for a prey.

36:8 But yeyou, O mountains of Israel, yeyou shallwill shootput forth your branches, and yieldbear your fruit tofor myMy people Israel; for they arewill atsoon hand to come.
36:9 For, behold, I am for you, and I will turn untoto you, and yeyou shall be tilledcultivated and sown;.
36:10 andAnd I will multiply men uponon you, all the house of Israel, even all of it; and the cities shallwill be inhabited, and the waste places shallwill be builded;rebuilt.

36:16 MoreoverThen the word of Jehovahthe Lord came untoto me, saying,
36:17 Son of man, when the house of Israel dweltwas living in their own land, they defiled it by their wayways and by their doings:deeds; their way before meMe was aslike the uncleanness of a woman in her impurity.
36:18 WhereforeTherefore, I poured out myMy wrath uponon them for the blood which they had pouredshed outon upon the land, and because they had defiled it with their idols;.
36:19 andAlso I scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed throughthroughout the countries:lands. accordingAccording to their wayways and according to their doingsdeeds I judged them.
36:20 AndWhen when they came untoto the nations, whitherwhere they went, they profaned myMy holy name;, inbecause thatit menwas said of them, These are the people of Jehovah,the andLord; areyet gonethey forthhave come out of hisHis land.
36:21 But I had regardconcern for myMy holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations, whitherwhere they went.
36:22 Therefore, say untoto the house of Israel, Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, IIt dois not this for your sake, O house of Israel, that I am about to act, but for myMy holy name, which yeyou have profaned among the nations, whitherwhere yeyou went.
36:23 And I will sanctifyvindicate mythe holiness of My great name, which hathhas been profaned among the nations, which yeyou have profaned in thetheir midst. ofThen them; and the nations shallwill know that I am Jehovahthe Lord, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod, when I shallprove beMyself sanctifiedholy inamong you beforein their eyessight.

36:31 Then shallyou yewill remember your evil ways, and your doingsdeeds that were not good;, and yeyou shallwill loathe yourselves in your own sight for your iniquities and for your abominations.
36:32 NotI am not doing this for your sake do I this, saithdeclares the Lord JehovahGod, belet it be known untoto you:. beBe ashamed and confounded for your ways, O house of Israel.!
36:33 Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, InOn the day that I cleanse you from all your iniquities, I will cause the cities to be inhabited, and the waste places shallwill be buildedrebuilt.
36:34 And the desolate land thatwill was desolate shall be tilled,cultivated whereasinstead itof wasbeing a desolation in the sight of alleveryone thatwho passed by.
36:35 And they shallwill say, This desolate land thathas was desolate is become like the garden of Eden; and the waste, and desolate, and ruined cities are fortified and inhabited.
36:36 Then the nations that are left round about you shallwill know that I, Jehovahthe Lord, have buildedrebuilt the ruined places, and planted that which was desolate:; I, Jehovahthe Lord, have spoken it, and I will do it.
36:37 Thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah: For thisGod, moreover,This willalso I bewill inquiredlet of by the house of Israel, ask Me to do it for them: I will increase themtheir with men like a flock.
36:38 AsLike the flock for sacrificesacrifices, aslike the flock ofat Jerusalem induring her appointed feasts, so shallwill the waste cities be filled with flocks of men;. andThen they shallwill know that I am Jehovahthe Lord.
37:1 The hand of Jehovahthe Lord was upon me, and heHe brought me out inby the Spirit of Jehovah,the Lord and set me down in the midstmiddle of the valley; and it was full of bones.
37:2 And heHe caused me to pass byamong them round about:, and, behold, there were very many inon the opensurface of the valley; and, lo, they were very dry.
37:3 And heHe said untoto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord JehovahGod, thouThou knowest.

40:41 Four tables were on thiseach side, andnext fourto tables on that side, by the side of the gate; or, eight tables, whereuponon which they slewslaughter the sacrifices.
40:42 And for the burnt offering there were four tables for the burnt offering, of hewn stone, a cubit and a half long, and a cubit and a half broadwide, and one cubit high;, whereuponon which they laidlay the instruments wherewithwith which they slewslaughter the burnt offering and the sacrifice.

40:45 And he said untoto me, This is the chamber, whosewhich prospectfaces is toward the south, isintended for the priests, thewho keeperskeep of the charge of the housetemple;
40:46 andbut the chamber whosewhich prospectfaces is toward the north is for the priests, thewho keeperskeep of the charge of the altar:. theseThese are the sons of Zadok, who from among the sons of Levi come near to Jehovahthe Lord to minister untoto himHim.
40:47 And he measured the court, a perfect square, a hundred cubits long, and a hundred cubits broad, foursquarewide; and the altar was beforein front of the housetemple.
40:48 Then he brought me to the porch of the house,temple and measured each postside pillar of the porch, five cubits on thiseach side,; and five cubits on that side: and the breadthwidth of the gate was three cubits on thiseach side, and three cubits on that side.
40:49 The length of the porch was twenty cubits, and the breadthwidth eleven cubits; evenand byat the stepsstairway wherebyby theywhich went up to it: andwas thereascended were pillarscolumns bybelonging to the postsside pillars, one on thiseach side, and another on that side.
41:1 AndThen he brought me to the temple,nave and measured the posts, six cubits broad on the one side, andpillars; six cubits broadwide on theeach other side, which was the breadthwidth of the tabernacleside pillar.
41:2 And the breadthwidth of the entrance was ten cubits;, and the sides of the entrance were five cubits on theeach one side,. andAnd fivehe cubitsmeasured on the otherlength side:of and he measured the length thereofnave, forty cubits, and the breadthwidth, twenty cubits.
41:3 Then he went heinside inward, and measured each postside pillar of the entrancedoorway, two cubits;, and the entrancedoorway, six cubits high; and the breadthwidth of the entrancedoorway, seven cubits.
41:4 And he measured theits length thereof, twenty cubits, and the breadthwidth, twenty cubits, before the temple:nave; and he said untoto me, This is the most holy place.
41:5 Then he measured the wall of the housetemple, six cubits; and the breadthwidth of everythe side chamberchambers, four cubits, roundall around about the house on every side.
41:6 And the side chambers were in three stories, one overabove another, and thirty in ordereach story; and theythe enteredside intochambers extended to the wall which belongedstood toon thetheir houseinward for the side chambersall round aboutaround, that they might havebe hold thereinfastened, and not havebe holdfastened ininto the wall of the housetemple itself.
41:7 And the side chambers weresurrounding broaderthe astemple theywere encompassedwider theat houseeach highersuccessive andstory. higher;Because for the encompassingstructure ofsurrounding the housetemple went higherupward andby higherstages roundon aboutall sides of the house:temple, therefore the breadthwidth of the housetemple continuedincreased upwardas it went higher; and sothus one went up from the lowest chamberstory to the highest by way of the middlesecond chamberstory.
41:8 I saw also that the house had a raised basementplatform roundall about:around; the foundations of the side chambers were a full reedrod of six greatlong cubits in height.
41:9 The thickness of the outer wall, whichof was for the side chambers, on the outside, was five cubits:. andBut thatthe whichfree wasspace leftbetween was the place of the side chambers thatbelonging belonged to the house.temple
41:10 Andand between the outer chambers was atwenty breadthcubits ofin twentywidth cubitsall roundaround about the housetemple on every side.
41:11 And the doorsdoorways of the side chambers were toward the placefree thatspace wasconsisted left,of one doordoorway toward the north, and another doordoorway toward the south:; and the breadthwidth of the placefree thatspace was left was five cubits roundall aboutaround.
41:12 And the building that was beforein front of the separate placearea at the side toward the west was seventy cubits broadwide; and the wall of the building was five cubits thick roundall aboutaround, and theits length thereofwas ninety cubits.
41:13 SoThen he measured the housetemple, a hundred cubits long; and the separate place,area andwith the building, withand theits walls thereof,were also a hundred cubits long;.
41:14 alsoAlso the breadthwidth of the facefront of the house,temple and that of the separate placeareas towardalong the east, side totaled a hundred cubits.
41:15 And he measured the length of the building beforealong the separatefront placeof whichthe wasseparate atarea thebehind back thereofit, andwith thea galleriesgallery thereof on theeach one side and on the other side, a hundred cubits; andhe also measured the inner temple,nave and the porches of the court;.
41:16 theThe thresholds, and the closedlatticed windows, and the galleries round about on their three stories, overopposite against the threshold, ceiledwere paneled with wood roundall aboutaround, and from the ground up to the windows nowbut the windows were covered,
41:17 toover the space above the doorentrance, evenand untoto the inner house, and withouton the outside, and byon all the wall roundall aboutaround withininside and withoutoutside, by measuremeasurement.
41:18 And it was madecarved with cherubim and palm trees; and a palm tree was between cherub and cherub, and every cherub had two faces;,
41:19 soa thatmans there was the face of a man toward the palm tree on the one side, and the face of a young lionlions face toward the palm tree on the other side.; Thusthey waswere itcarved madeon through all the house roundall about:around.
41:20 fromFrom the ground untoto above the doorentrance were cherubim and palm trees made;were thuscarved, wasas well as on the wall of the templenave.
41:21 AsThe fordoorposts theof temple, the doornave posts were squaredsquare; and as for the facefront of the sanctuary, the appearance thereofof one doorpost was aslike thethat appearance of the templeother.
41:22 The altar was of wood, three cubits high, and theits length thereof two cubits; andits the corners thereof, andits the length thereofbase, and theits wallssides thereof, were of wood:. andAnd he said untoto me, This is the table that is before Jehovahthe Lord.
41:23 And the templenave and the sanctuary each had twoa doorsdouble door.
41:24 And each of the doors had two leaves apiece, two turningswinging leaves:; two leaves for the one door, and two leaves for the other.
41:25 AndAlso there were madecarved on them, on the doors of the templenave, cherubim and palm trees, like asthose werecarved madeon upon the walls; and there was a threshold of wood uponon the facefront of the porch withoutoutside.
41:26 And there were closedlatticed windows and palm trees on the one side and on the other side, on the sides of the porch:; thus were the side chambers of the house, and the thresholds.
42:1 Then he brought me forthout into the outer court, the way toward the north:; and he brought me intoto the chamber thatwhich was overopposite against the separate place,area and whichopposite was over against the building toward the north.
42:2 BeforeAlong the length, ofwhich was a hundred cubits, was the north door,; and the breadthwidth was fifty cubits.
42:3 OverOpposite against the twenty cubits which belonged to the inner court, and overopposite against the pavement which belonged to the outer court, was gallery againstcorresponding to gallery in thethree third storystories.
42:4 And before the chambers was aan inner walk of ten cubits breadth inwardwide, a way of one cubithundred cubits; and their doorsopenings were towardon the north.
42:5 Now the upper chambers were shorter;smaller forbecause the galleries took more space away from these,them more than from the lower and themiddle middlemost,ones in the building.
42:6 For they were in three stories, and they had notno pillars aslike the pillars of the courts:; therefore the uppermostupper waschambers straitenedwere moreset thanback from the lowestground andupward, more than the middlemostlower fromand themiddle groundones.
42:7 AndAs for the outer wall that was without by the side of the chambers, toward the outer court beforefacing the chambers, theits length thereof was fifty cubits.
42:8 For the length of the chambers thatwhich were in the outer court was fifty cubits:; and, lobehold, beforethe length of those facing the temple werewas a hundred cubits.
42:9 And frombelow under these chambers was the entryentrance on the east side, as one goethenters into them from the outer court.
42:10 In the thickness of the wall of the court toward the east, beforefacing the separate place,area and beforefacing the building, there were chambers.
42:11 And the way beforein front of them was like the appearance of the way of the chambers which were towardon the north;, according to their length so was their breadth:width; and all their egressesexits were both according to their fashions,arrangements and according to their doorsopenings.
42:12 And accordingcorresponding to the doorsopenings of the chambers thatwhich were toward the south was aan dooropening at the head of the way, even the way directlyin beforefront of the wall toward the east, as one enterethenters into them.
42:13 Then he said heto unto me, The north chambers and the south chambers, which are beforeopposite the separate placearea, they are the holy chambers, where the priests thatwho are near untoto Jehovahthe Lord shall eat the most holy things:. thereThere they shall they lay the most holy things, and the mealgrain offering, and the sin offering, and the trespassguilt offering; for the place is holy.
42:14 When the priests enter in, then they shall they not go out ofinto the holyouter placecourt intofrom the outersanctuary court,without butlaying there they shall lay their garments whereinin which they minister;, for they are holy:. andThey they shall put on other garments,; andthen they shall approach to that which pertainethis tofor the people.
42:15 Now when he had madefinished an end of measuring the inner house, he brought me forthout by the way of the gate whosewhich prospectfaced is toward the east, and measured it roundall aboutaround.
42:16 He measured on the east side with the measuring reed five hundred reeds, withby the measuring reed round about.
42:17 He measured on the north side five hundred reeds withby the measuring reed round about.
42:18 HeOn measured on the south side he measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.
42:19 He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred reeds with the measuring reed.
42:20 He measured it on the four sides:; it had a wall roundall aboutaround, the length five hundred, and the breadthwidth five hundred, to makedivide a separation between thatthe which was holy and thatthe which was commonprofane.
43:1 AfterwardThen he broughtled me to the gate, even the gate thatfacing looketh toward the east.;
43:2 And,and behold, the glory of the God of Israel camewas coming from the way of the east:. andAnd hisHis voice was like the sound of many waters; and the earth shinedshone with hisHis glory.
43:3 And it was accordinglike to the appearance of the vision which I saw, evenlike according to the vision thatwhich I saw when IHe came to destroy the city;. andAnd the visions were like the vision thatwhich I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell uponon my face.
43:4 And the glory of Jehovahthe Lord came into the house by the way of the gate whosefacing prospect is toward the east.
43:5 And the Spirit tooklifted me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold, the glory of Jehovahthe Lord filled the house.
43:6 AndThen I heard one speaking untoto me outfrom of the house;, andwhile a man stoodwas bystanding beside me.
43:7 And heHe said untoto me, Son of man, this is the place of myMy throne, and the place of the soles of myMy feet, where I will dwell inamong the midstsons of the children of Israel for everforever. And the house of Israel shallwill nonot moreagain defile myMy holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their whoredom,harlotry and by the deadcorpses bodies of their kings inwhen theirthey high places;die,
43:8 inby their setting of their threshold by myMy threshold, and their door post beside myMy door post, andwith thereonly was but the wall between meMe and them;. andAnd they have defiled myMy holy name by their abominations which they have committed:. whereforeSo I have consumed them in mineMy anger.
43:9 Now let them put away their whoredom,harlotry and the deadcorpses bodies of their kings, far from meMe; and I will dwell inamong the midst of them for everforever.
43:10 ThouAs for you, son of man, showdescribe the housetemple to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities; and let them measure the patternplan.
43:11 And if they beare ashamed of all that they have done, make known untoto them the formdesign of the house, andits the fashion thereofstructure, andits the egresses thereofexits, andits the entrances thereof, and all theits forms thereofdesigns, and all theits ordinances thereofstatutes, and all theits forms thereof, and all the laws. thereof;And and write it in their sight;, so that they may keepobserve theits whole formdesign thereof, and all theits ordinances thereofstatutes, and do them.
43:12 This is the law of the house: uponits entire area on the top of the mountain theall wholearound limit thereof round about shall be most holy. Behold, this is the law of the house.
43:13 And these are the measuresmeasurements of the altar by cubits the cubit isbeing a cubit and a handbreadth: the bottombase shall be a cubit, and the breadthwidth a cubit, and theits border thereofon byits the edge thereof round about aone span; and this shall be the height of the base of the altar.
43:14 And from the bottombase uponon the ground to the lower ledge shall be two cubits, and the breadthwidth one cubit; and from the lessersmaller ledge to the greaterlarger ledge shall be four cubits, and the breadthwidth aone cubit.
43:15 And the upper altar hearth shall be four cubits; and from the altar hearth andshall upwardextend thereupwards shall be four horns.
43:16 AndNow the altar hearth shall be twelve cubits long by twelve broadwide, square in theits four sides thereof.
43:17 And the ledge shall be fourteen cubits long by fourteen broadwide in theits four sides, thereof; and the border aboutaround it shall be half a cubit;, and theits bottombase thereof shall be a cubit round about; and theits steps thereof shall lookface toward the east.
43:18 And heHe said untoto me, Son of man, thus saithsays the Lord Jehovah:God, These are the ordinancesstatutes offor the altar inon the day whenit theyis shall make itbuilt, to offer burnt offerings thereon,on it and to sprinkle blood thereonon it.
