: Ezekiel 1



: 01 . Now it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the thirtieth
<7970 sh@lowshiym > year <8141 shaneh > , in the fourth <7243
r@biy<iy > [ month ] , in the fifth <2568 chamesh > [ day ]
of the month <2320 chodesh > , as I [ was ] among < 8432 tavek
> the captives <1473 gowlah > by the river <5104 nahar > of
Chebar <3529 K@bar > , [ that ] the heavens <8064 shamayim >
were opened <6605 pathach > , and I saw <7200 ra>ah > visions
<4759 mar>ah > of God <0430 >elohiym > .

: 02 In the fifth <2568 chamesh > [ day ] of the month <2320
chodesh > , which <1958 hiy > [ was ] the fifth < 2549
chamiyshiy > year <8141 shaneh > of king <4428 melek >
Jehoiachin s <3112 Yowyakiyn > captivity <1546 galuwth > ,

: 03 The word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came
<1961 hayah > expressly unto Ezekiel <3168 Y@chezqe>l > the
priest <3548 kohen > , the son <1121 ben > of Buzi <0941 Buwziy
> , in the land <0776 >erets > of the Chaldeans < 3779 Kasday >
by the river <5104 nahar > Chebar <3529 K@bar > ; and the hand
<3027 yad > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > was there < 8033 sham >
upon him .

: 04 . And I looked <7200 ra>ah > , and , behold < 2009
hinneh > , a whirlwind came <0935 bow> > out of the north <6828
tsaphown > , a great <1419 gadowl > cloud <6051 < anan > , and
a fire <0784 >esh > infolding <3947 laqach > itself , and a
brightness <5051 nogahh > [ was ] about <5439 cabiyb > it ,
and out of the midst <8432 tavek > thereof as the colour <5869
<ayin > of amber <2830 chashmal > , out of the midst <8432
tavek > of the fire <0784 >esh > .

: 05 Also out of the midst <8432 tavek > thereof [ came ] the
likeness <1823 d@muwth > of four <0702 >arba< > living <2416
chay > creatures <2416 chay > . And this <2088 zeh > [ was ]
their appearance <4758 mar>eh > ; they had the likeness <1823
d@muwth > of a man <0120 >adam > .

: 06 And every one <0259 >echad > had four <0702 > arba< > faces
<6440 paniym > , and every one <0259 >echad > had four <0702
>arba< > wings <3671 kanaph > .

: 07 And their feet <7272 regel > [ were ] straight < 3474
yashar > feet <7272 regel > ; and the sole <3709 kaph > of
their feet <7272 regel > [ was ] like the sole <3709 kaph > of
a calf s <5695 <egel > foot <7272 regel > : and they sparkled
<5340 natsats > like the colour <5869 <ayin > of burnished <7044
qalal > brass <5178 n@chosheth > .

: 08 And [ they had ] the hands <3027 yad > of a man < 0120
>adam > under <8478 tachath > their wings <3671 kanaph > on
<5921 <al > their four <0702 >arba< > sides <7253 reba< > ; and
they four <0702 >arba< > had their faces <6440 paniym > and
their wings <3671 kanaph > .

: 09 Their wings <3671 kanaph > [ were ] joined <2266 chabar
> one <0802 >ishshah > to another <0269 > achowth > ; they
turned <5437 cabab > not when they went <3212 yalak > ; they
went <3212 yalak > every <0376 >iysh > one < 0376 >iysh >
straight <5676 <eber > forward <6440 paniym > .

: 10 As for the likeness <1823 d@muwth > of their faces <6440
paniym > , they four <0702 >arba< > had the face <6440 paniym >
of a man <0120 >adam > , and the face <6440 paniym > of a lion
<0738 >ariy > , on <0413 >el > the right < 3225 yamiyn > side
<3225 yamiyn > : and they four <0702 >arba< > had the face <6440
paniym > of an ox <7794 showr > on the left <8040 s@mo>wl > side
<8040 s@mo>wl > ; they four <0702 >arba< > also had the face
<6440 paniym > of an eagle <5404 nesher > .

: 11 Thus [ were ] their faces <6440 paniym > : and their
wings <3671 kanaph > [ were ] stretched <6504 parad > upward
<4605 ma<al > ; two <8147 sh@nayim > [ wings ] of every <0376
>iysh > one <0376 >iysh > [ were ] joined < 2266 chabar > one
<0376 >iysh > to another <0376 >iysh > , and two <8147 sh@nayim
> covered <3680 kacah > their bodies <1472 g@viyah > .

: 12 And they went <3212 yalak > every <0376 >iysh > one <0376
>iysh > straight <5676 <eber > forward <6440 paniym > : whither
the spirit <7307 ruwach > was to go <3212 yalak > , they went
<3212 yalak > ; [ and ] they turned <5437 cabab > not when
they went <3212 yalak > .

: 13 As for the likeness <1823 d@muwth > of the living < 2416
chay > creatures <2416 chay > , their appearance < 4758 mar>eh >
[ was ] like burning <1197 ba<ar > coals <1513 gechel > of
fire <0784 >esh > , [ and ] like the appearance < 4758 mar>eh
> of lamps <3940 lappiyd > : it went <1980 halak > up and down
among <0996 beyn > the living <2416 chay > creatures <2416 chay
> ; and the fire <0784 >esh > was bright <5051 nogahh > , and
out of the fire <0784 >esh > went <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318
yatsa> > lightning <1300 baraq > .

: 14 And the living <2416 chay > creatures <2416 chay > ran
<7519 ratsa> > and returned <7725 shuwb > as the appearance
<4758 mar>eh > of a flash <0965 bazaq > of lightning <0965 bazaq
> .

: 15 . Now as I beheld <7200 ra>ah > the living < 2416 chay >
creatures <2416 chay > , behold <2009 hinneh > one <0259 >echad
> wheel <0212 >owphan > upon the earth <0776 > erets > by the
living <2416 chay > creatures <2416 chay > , with his four
<0702 >arba< > faces <6440 paniym > .

: 16 The appearance <4758 mar>eh > of the wheels < 0212 >owphan
> and their work <4639 ma<aseh > [ was ] like unto the colour
<5869 <ayin > of a beryl <8658 tarshiysh > : and they four <0702
>arba< > had one <0259 >echad > likeness < 1823 d@muwth > : and
their appearance <4758 mar>eh > and their work <4639 ma<aseh >
[ was ] as it were a wheel <0212 >owphan > in the middle <8432
tavek > of a wheel <0212 >owphan > .

: 17 When they went <3212 yalak > , they went <3212 yalak >
upon their four <0702 >arba< > sides <7253 reba< > : [ and ]
they turned <5437 cabab > not when they went <3212 yalak > .

: 18 As for their rings <1354 gab > , they were so high <1362
gabahh > that they were dreadful <3374 yir>ah > ; and their
rings <1354 gab > [ were ] full <4392 male> > of eyes <5869
<ayin > round <5439 cabiyb > about them four <0702 >arba< > .

: 19 And when the living <2416 chay > creatures <2416 chay >
went <3212 yalak > , the wheels <0212 >owphan > went <3212
yalak > by them : and when the living <2416 chay > creatures
<2416 chay > were lifted <5375 nasa> > up from the earth <0776
>erets > , the wheels <0212 >owphan > were lifted <5375 nasa> >
up .

: 20 Whithersoever the spirit <7307 ruwach > was to go < 3212
yalak > , they went <3212 yalak > , thither <8033 sham > [
was their ] spirit <7307 ruwach > to go <3212 yalak > ; and
the wheels <0212 >owphan > were lifted <5375 nasa> > up over
<5980 <ummah > against <5980 <ummah > them : for the spirit
<7307 ruwach > of the living <2416 chay > creature <2416 chay >
[ was ] in the wheels <0212 >owphan > .

: 21 When those went <3212 yalak > , [ these ] went < 3212
yalak > ; and when those stood <5975 <amad > , [ these ]
stood <5975 <amad > ; and when those were lifted < 5375 nasa> >
up from the earth <0776 >erets > , the wheels <0212 >owphan >
were lifted <5375 nasa> > up over <5980 <ummah > against <5980
<ummah > them : for the spirit <7307 ruwach > of the living
<2416 chay > creature <2416 chay > [ was ] in the wheels <0212
>owphan > .

: 22 And the likeness <1823 d@muwth > of the firmament < 7549
raqiya< > upon the heads <7218 ro>sh > of the living <2416 chay
> creature <2416 chay > [ was ] as the colour <5869 <ayin > of
the terrible <3372 yare> > crystal <7140 qerach > , stretched
<5186 natah > forth over <5921 <al > their heads <7218 ro>sh >
above <4605 ma<al > .

: 23 And under <8478 tachath > the firmament <7549 raqiya< > [
were ] their wings <3671 kanaph > straight <3474 yashar > ,
the one <0802 >ishshah > toward <0413 >el > the other <0269
>achowth > : every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 > iysh > had two <8147
sh@nayim > , which covered <3680 kacah > on this < 2007 hennah >
side , and every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > had two <8147
sh@nayim > , which covered <3680 kacah > on that side , their
bodies <1472 g@viyah > .

: 24 And when they went <3212 yalak > , I heard <8085 shama< >
the noise <6963 qowl > of their wings <3671 kanaph > , like the
noise <6963 qowl > of great <7227 rab > waters < 4325 mayim > ,
as the voice <6963 qowl > of the Almighty <7706 Shadday > , the
voice <6963 qowl > of speech <1999 hamullah > , as the noise
<6963 qowl > of an host <4264 machaneh > : when they stood <5975
<amad > , they let <7503 raphah > down <7503 raphah > their
wings <3671 kanaph > .

: 25 And there was a voice <6963 qowl > from the firmament
<7549 raqiya< > that [ was ] over <5921 <al > their heads
<7218 ro>sh > , when they stood <5975 <amad > , [ and ] had
let <7503 raphah > down <7503 raphah > their wings <3671 kanaph
> .

: 26 . And above <4605 ma<al > the firmament <7549 raqiya< >
that [ was ] over <5921 <al > their heads <7218 ro>sh > [ was
] the likeness <1823 d@muwth > of a throne <3678 kicce> > , as
the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of a sapphire <5601 cappiyr >
stone <68> : and upon the likeness <1823 d@muwth > of the throne
<3678 kicce> > [ was ] the likeness <1823 d@muwth > as the
appearance <4758 mar>eh > of a man <0120 >adam > above <4605
ma<al > upon it .

: 27 And I saw <7200 ra>ah > as the colour <5869 < ayin > of
amber <2830 chashmal > , as the appearance <4758 mar> eh > of
fire <0784 >esh > round <5439 cabiyb > about within <1004 bayith
> it , from the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of his loins <4975
mothen > even upward <4605 ma<al > , and from the appearance
<4758 mar>eh > of his loins <4975 mothen > even downward <4295
mattah > , I saw <7200 ra>ah > as it were the appearance <4758
mar>eh > of fire <0784 >esh > , and it had brightness <5051
nogahh > round <5439 cabiyb > about .

: 28 As the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of the bow < 7198 qesheth
> that is in the cloud <6051 <anan > in the day < 3117 yowm > of
rain <1653 geshem > , so <3651 ken > [ was ] the appearance
<4758 mar>eh > of the brightness <5051 nogahh > round <5439
cabiyb > about . This <1931 huw> > [ was ] the appearance
<4758 mar>eh > of the likeness <1823 d@muwth > of the glory
<3519 kabowd > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > . And when I saw
<7200 ra>ah > [ it ] , I fell <5307 naphal > upon my face
<6440 paniym > , and I heard <8085 shama< > a voice <6963 qowl
> of one that spake <1696 dabar > .

: Ezekiel 2

: 01 . And he said <0559 >amar > unto me , Son < 1121 ben > of
man <0120 >adam > , stand <5975 <amad > upon thy feet <7272
regel > , and I will speak <1696 dabar > unto thee .

: 02 And the spirit <7307 ruwach > entered <0935 bow> > into me
when <0834 >aher > he spake <1696 dabar > unto me , and set
<5975 <amad > me upon my feet <7272 regel > , that I heard
<8085 shama< > him that spake <1696 dabar > unto me .

: 03 And he said <0559 >amar > unto me , Son <1121 ben > of
man <0120 >adam > , I send <7971 shalach > thee to the children
<1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > , to a rebellious <4775
marad > nation <1471 gowy > that hath rebelled <4775 marad >
against me : they and their fathers <1> have transgressed <6586
pasha< > against me , [ even ] unto this <2088 zeh > very
<6106 <etsem > day <3117 yowm > .

: 04 For [ they are ] impudent children <1121 ben > and
stiffhearted . I do send <7971 shalach > thee unto them ; and
thou shalt say <0559 >amar > unto them , Thus <3541 koh > saith
<0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD < 3069 Y@hovih > .

: 05 And they , whether <0518 >im > they will hear < 8085
shama< > , or whether <0518 >im > they will forbear <2308
chadal > , ( for they [ are ] a rebellious <4805 m@riy >
house <1004 bayith > , ) yet shall know <3045 yada< > that
there hath been <1961 hayah > a prophet <5030 nabiy> > among
<8432 tavek > them .

: 06 . And thou , son <1121 ben > of man <0120 > adam > , be
not afraid <3372 yare> > of them , neither <0408 > al > be
afraid <3372 yare> > of their words <1697 dabar > , though
<3588 kiy > briers <5621 carab > and thorns <5544 cillown > [
be ] with thee , and thou dost dwell <3427 yashab > among
<0413 >el > scorpions <6137 <aqrab > : be not afraid <3372 yare>
> of their words <1697 dabar > , nor <0408 >al > be dismayed
<2865 chathath > at their looks <6400 pelach > , though <3588
kiy > they [ be ] a rebellious <4805 m@riy > house .

: 07 And thou shalt speak <1696 dabar > my words <1697 dabar >
unto them , whether <0518 >im > they will hear <8085 shama< > ,
or whether <0518 >im > they will forbear <2308 chadal > : for
they [ are ] most rebellious <4805 m@riy > .

: 08 But thou , son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > , hear
<8085 shama< > what I say <1696 dabar > unto thee ; Be not thou
rebellious <4805 m@riy > like that rebellious <4805 m@riy >
house <1004 bayith > : open <6475 patsah > thy mouth <6310 peh >
, and eat <0398 >akal > that I give <5414 nathan > thee .

: 09 And when I looked <7200 ra>ah > , behold <2009 hinneh > ,
an hand <3027 yad > [ was ] sent <7971 shalach > unto me ;
and , lo <2009 hinneh > , a roll <4040 m@gillah > of a book
<5612 cepher > [ was ] therein ;

: 10 And he spread <6566 paras > it before <6440 paniym > me ;
and it [ was ] written <3789 kathab > within <6440 paniym >
and without <0268 >achowr > : and [ there was ] written <3789
kathab > therein <0413 >el > lamentations <7015 qiynah > , and
mourning <1899 hegeh > , and woe <1958 hiy > .

: Ezekiel 3

: 01 . Moreover he said <0559 >amar > unto me , Son <1121 ben
> of man <0120 >adam > , eat <0398 >akal > that thou findest
<4672 matsa> > ; eat <0398 >akal > this < 2063 zo>th > roll
<4040 m@gillah > , and go <3212 yalak > speak < 1696 dabar >
unto the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra> el > .

: 02 So I opened <6605 pathach > my mouth <6310 peh > , and he
caused me to eat <0398 >akal > that roll <4040 m@gillah > .

: 03 And he said <0559 >amar > unto me , Son <1121 ben > of
man <0120 >adam > , cause thy belly <0990 beten > to eat <0398
>akal > , and fill <4390 male> > thy bowels < 4578 me<ah > with
this <2063 zo>th > roll <4040 m@gillah > that I give <5414
nathan > thee . Then did I eat <0398 >akal > [ it ] ; and it
was in my mouth <6310 peh > as honey <1706 d@bash > for
sweetness <4966 mathowq > .

: 04 And he said <0559 >amar > unto me , Son <1121 ben > of
man <0120 >adam > , go <3212 yalak > , get < 0935 bow> > thee
unto the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra> el > , and
speak <1696 dabar > with my words <1697 dabar > unto them .

: 05 For thou [ art ] not sent <7971 shalach > to a people
<5971 <am > of a strange <6012 <ameq > speech <8193 saphah > and
of an hard <3515 kabed > language <3956 lashown > , [ but ]
to the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ;

: 06 Not to many <7227 rab > people <5971 <am > of a strange
<6012 <ameq > speech <8193 saphah > and of an hard <3515 kabed >
language <3956 lashown > , whose <0834 >aher > words <1697
dabar > thou canst not understand <8085 shama< > . Surely ,
had I sent <7971 shalach > thee to them , they would have
hearkened <8085 shama< > unto thee .

: 07 But the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >
will <14> not hearken <8085 shama< > unto thee ; for they will
<14> not hearken <8085 shama< > unto me : for all <3605 kol >
the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > [ are ]
impudent and hardhearted .

: 08 Behold <2009 hinneh > , I have made <5414 nathan > thy
face <6440 paniym > strong <2389 chazaq > against < 5980 <ummah >
their faces <6440 paniym > , and thy forehead <4696 metsach >
strong <2389 chazaq > against <5980 <ummah > their foreheads
<4696 metsach > .

: 09 As an adamant <8068 shamiyr > harder <2389 chazaq > than
flint <6864 tsor > have I made <5414 nathan > thy forehead <4696
metsach > : fear <3372 yare> > them not , neither <3808 lo> >
be dismayed <2865 chathath > at their looks <6400 pelach > ,
though they [ be ] a rebellious <4805 m@riy > house < 1004
bayith > .

: 10 Moreover he said <0559 >amar > unto me , Son < 1121 ben >
of man <0120 >adam > , all <3605 kol > my words <1697 dabar >
that I shall speak <1696 dabar > unto thee receive <3947 laqach
> in thine heart <3824 lebab > , and hear <8085 shama< > with
thine ears <0241 >ozen > .

: 11 And go <3212 yalak > , get <0935 bow> > thee to them of
the captivity <1473 gowlah > , unto the children <1121 ben > of
thy people <5971 <am > , and speak <1696 dabar > unto them ,
and tell <0559 >amar > them , Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559
>amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; whether
<0518 >im > they will hear <8085 shama< > , or whether <0518
>im > they will forbear <2308 chadal > .

: 12 Then the spirit <7307 ruwach > took <5375 nasa> > me up ,
and I heard <8085 shama< > behind <0310 >achar > me a voice
<6963 qowl > of a great <1419 gadowl > rushing < 7494 ra<ash > ,
[ saying ] , Blessed <1288 barak > [ be ] the glory <3519
kabowd > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > from his place < 4725 maqowm
> .

: 13 [ I heard ] also the noise <6963 qowl > of the wings
<3671 kanaph > of the living <2416 chay > creatures <2416 chay >
that touched <5401 nashaq > one <0802 >ishshah > another <0269
>achowth > , and the noise <6963 qowl > of the wheels <0212
>owphan > over <5980 <ummah > against <5980 < ummah > them , and
a noise <6963 qowl > of a great <1419 gadowl > rushing <7494
ra<ash > .

: 14 So the spirit <7307 ruwach > lifted <5375 nasa> > me up ,
and took <3947 laqach > me away , and I went <3212 yalak > in
bitterness <4751 mar > , in the heat <2534 chemah > of my
spirit <7307 ruwach > ; but the hand <3027 yad > of the LORD
<3068 Y@hovah > was strong <2388 chazaq > upon me .

: 15 Then I came <0935 bow> > to them of the captivity <1473
gowlah > at Telabib <8512 Tel >Abiyb > , that dwelt <3427
yashab > by the river <5104 nahar > of Chebar <3529 K@bar > ,
and I sat <3427 yashab > where <8033 sham > they sat <3427
yashab > , and remained <3427 yashab > there <8033 sham >
astonished <8074 shamem > among <8432 tavek > them seven <7651
sheba< > days <3117 yowm > .

: 16 . And it came <1961 hayah > to pass at the end < 7097
qatseh > of seven <7651 sheba< > days <3117 yowm > , that the
word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came <1961 hayah

: 17 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > , I have made <5414
nathan > thee a watchman <6822 tsaphah > unto the house <1004
bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > : therefore hear <8085
shama< > the word <1697 dabar > at my mouth <6310 peh > , and
give them warning <2094 zahar > from me .

: 18 When I say <0559 >amar > unto the wicked <7563 rasha< > ,
Thou shalt surely die <4191 muwth > ; and thou givest him not
warning <2094 zahar > , nor <3808 lo> > speakest <1696 dabar >
to warn <2094 zahar > the wicked <7563 rasha< > from his wicked
<7563 rasha< > way <1870 derek > , to save < 2421 chayah > his
life <2421 chayah > ; the same <1931 huw> > wicked <7563 rasha<

thine hand <3027 yad > .

: 19 Yet if <3588 kiy > thou warn <2094 zahar > the wicked
<7563 rasha< > , and he turn <7725 shuwb > not from his
wickedness <7562 resha< > , nor from his wicked < 7563 rasha< >
way <1870 derek > , he shall die <4191 muwth > in his iniquity
<5771 <avon > ; but thou hast delivered <5337 natsal > thy soul
<5315 nephesh > .

: 20 Again <7725 shuwb > , When a righteous <6662 tsaddiyq >
[ man ] doth turn <7725 shuwb > from his righteousness < 6664
tsedeq > , and commit <6213 <asah > iniquity < 5766 <evel > ,
and I lay <5414 nathan > a stumblingblock <4383 mikshowl >
before <6440 paniym > him , he shall die <4191 muwth > :
because <3588 kiy > thou hast not given him warning < 2094 zahar

and his righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > which <0834 > aher > he
hath done <6213 <asah > shall not be remembered <2142 zakar > ;
but his blood <1818 dam > will I require <1245 baqash > at thine
hand <3027 yad > .

: 21 Nevertheless if <3588 kiy > thou warn <2094 zahar > the
righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > [ man ] , that the righteous <6662
tsaddiyq > sin <2398 chata> > not , and he doth not sin <2398

kiy > he is warned <2094 zahar > ; also thou hast delivered
<5337 natsal > thy soul <5315 nephesh > .

: 22 . And the hand <3027 yad > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >
was there <8033 sham > upon me ; and he said <0559 > amar > unto
me , Arise <6965 quwm > , go <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa>

<8033 sham > talk <1696 dabar > with thee .

: 23 Then I arose <6965 quwm > , and went <3318 yatsa> > forth
<3318 yatsa> > into <0413 >el > the plain < 1237 biq<ah > : and ,
behold <2009 hinneh > , the glory <3519 kabowd > of the LORD
<3068 Y@hovah > stood <5975 <amad > there <8033 sham > , as the
glory <3519 kabowd > which <0834 >aher > I saw < 7200 ra>ah > by
the river <5104 nahar > of Chebar <3529 K@bar > : and I fell
<5307 naphal > on <5921 <al > my face <6440 paniym > .

: 24 Then the spirit <7307 ruwach > entered <0935 bow> > into
me , and set <5975 <amad > me upon my feet <7272 regel > , and
spake <1696 dabar > with me , and said <0559 >amar > unto me ,
Go <0935 bow> > , shut <5462 cagar > thyself within <8432 tavek

: 25 But thou , O son <1121 ben > of man <0120 > adam > ,
behold <2009 hinneh > , they shall put <5414 nathan > bands
<5688 <aboth > upon thee , and shall bind <0631 > acar > thee
with them , and thou shalt not go <3318 yatsa> > out among
<8432 tavek > them :

: 26 And I will make thy tongue <3956 lashown > cleave < 1692
dabaq > to the roof <2441 chek > of thy mouth <2441 chek > ,
that thou shalt be dumb <0481 >alam > , and shalt not be to
them a reprover <3198 yakach > : for they [ are ] a rebellious
<4805 m@riy > house <1004 bayith > .

: 27 But when I speak <1696 dabar > with thee , I will open
<6605 pathach > thy mouth <6310 peh > , and thou shalt say
<0559 >amar > unto them , Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; He that heareth
<8085 shama< > , let him hear <8085 shama< > ; and he that
forbeareth <2310 chadel > , let him forbear <2308 chadal > :
for they [ are ] a rebellious <4805 m@riy > house < 1004 bayith

: 07 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >

and the sons <1121 ben > shall eat <0398 >akal > their fathers

: 11 Wherefore <3651 ken > , [ as ] I live <2416 chay > ,
saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >
; Surely , because <3282 ya<an > thou hast defiled < 2930 tame>

neither <1571 gam > will I have any pity <2550 chamal > .

: 12 A third <7992 sh@liyshiy > part of thee shall die < 4191
muwth > with the pestilence <1698 deber > , and with famine
<7458 ra<ab > shall they be consumed <3615 kalah > in the midst

shall fall <5307 naphal > by the sword <2719 chereb > round

: 13 Thus shall mine anger <0639 >aph > be accomplished <3615
kalah > , and I will cause my fury <2534 chemah > to rest <5117

and they shall know <3045 yada< > that I the LORD < 3068 Y@hovah

when I have accomplished <3615 kalah > my fury <2534 chemah >

in the sight <5869 <ayin > of all <3605 kol > that pass <5674

: 15 So it shall be a reproach <2781 cherpah > and a taunt
<1422 g@duwphah > , an instruction <4148 muwcar > and an
astonishment <8047 shammah > unto the nations <1471 gowy > that

: 06 In all <3605 kol > your dwellingplaces <4186 mowshab > the
cities <5892 <iyr > shall be laid waste <2717 charab > , and
the high <1116 bamah > places shall be desolate <3456 yasham > ;
that your altars <4196 mizbeach > may be laid waste < 2717

be abolished <4229 machah > .

: 07 And the slain <2491 chalal > shall fall <5307 naphal > in
the midst <8432 tavek > of you , and ye shall know < 3045 yada<

their idols <1544 gilluwl > : and they shall lothe <6962 quwt >
themselves <6440 paniym > for the evils <7451 ra< > which <0834

they shall fall <5307 naphal > by the sword <2719 chereb > , by
the famine <7458 ra<ab > , and by the pestilence < 1698 deber > .


: 12 He that is far <7350 rachowq > off shall die <4191 muwth >
of the pestilence <1698 deber > ; and he that is near < 7138

and he that remaineth <7604 sha>ar > and is besieged <5341

thus will I accomplish <3615 kalah > my fury <2534 chemah > upon

: 13 Then shall ye know <3045 yada< > that I [ am ] the LORD

: 01 . Moreover the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD < 3068

: 08 Now <6258 <attah > will I shortly <7138 qarowb > pour
<8210 shaphak > out my fury <2534 chemah > upon thee , and
accomplish <3615 kalah > mine anger <0639 >aph > upon thee : and

wailing <5089 noahh > for them .

: 12 The time <6256 <eth > is come <0935 bow> > , the day
<3117 yowm > draweth near <5060 naga< > : let not the buyer
<7069 qanah > rejoice <8055 samach > , nor <0408 >al > the

: 13 For the seller <4376 makar > shall not return < 7725 shuwb

<5750 <owd > alive <2416 chay > : for the vision <2377 chazown >

: 14 They have blown <8628 taqa< > the trumpet <8628 taqa< > ,
even to make all <3605 kol > ready <3559 kuwn > ; but none
<0369 >ayin > goeth <1980 halak > to the battle <4421 milchamah

and he that [ is ] in the city <5892 <iyr > , famine <7458
ra<ab > and pestilence <1698 deber > shall devour < 0398 >akal >
him .

: 16 . But they that escape <6403 palat > of them shall escape
<6412 paliyt > , and shall be on <0413 >el > the mountains

raphah > , and all <3605 kol > knees <1290 berek > shall be
weak <3212 yalak > [ as ] water <4325 mayim > .

: 18 They shall also gird <2296 chagar > [ themselves ] with
sackcloth <8242 saq > , and horror <6427 pallatsuwth > shall
cover <3680 kacah > them ; and shame <0955 buwshah > [ shall

<7144 qorchah > upon all <3605 kol > their heads < 7218 ro>sh > .

: 19 They shall cast <7993 shalak > their silver <3701 keceph >
in the streets <2351 chuwts > , and their gold <2091 zahab >
shall be removed <5079 niddah > : their silver <3701 keceph >
and their gold <2091 zahab > shall not be able <3201 yakol > to
deliver <5337 natsal > them in the day <3117 yowm > of the wrath

satisfy <7646 saba< > their souls <5315 nephesh > , neither

because <3588 kiy > it is the stumblingblock <4383 mikshowl > of
their iniquity <5771 <avon > .

: 20 As for the beauty <6643 ts@biy > of his ornament < 5716
<adiy > , he set <7760 suwm > it in majesty <1347 ga>own > :
but they made <6213 <asah > the images <6754 tselem > of their
abominations <8441 tow<ebah > [ and ] of their detestable
<8251 shiqquwts > things therein : therefore have I set < 5414
nathan > it far <5079 niddah > from them .

: 21 And I will give <5414 nathan > it into the hands < 3027 yad

the wicked <7563 rasha< > of the earth <0776 > erets > for a

.

: 22 My face <6440 paniym > will I turn <5437 cabab > also from
them , and they shall pollute <2490 chalal > my secret < 6845
tsaphan > [ place ] : for the robbers <6530 p@riyts > shall
enter <0935 bow> > into it , and defile <2490 chalal > it .

: 23 . Make <6213 <asah > a chain <7659 shib< athayim > : for
the land <0776 >erets > is full <4390 male> > of bloody <1818
dam > crimes <4941 mishpat > , and the city <5892 <iyr > is
full <4390 male> > of violence <2555 chamac > .

: 24 Wherefore I will bring <0935 bow> > the worst < 7451 ra< >
of the heathen <1471 gowy > , and they shall possess < 3423
yarash > their houses <1004 bayith > : I will also make the pomp
<1347 ga>own > of the strong <5794 <az > to cease <7673 shabath

: 25 Destruction <7089 q@phadah > cometh <0935 bow> > ; and
they shall seek <1245 baqash > peace <7965 shalowm > , and [
there shall be ] none <0369 >ayin > .

: 26 Mischief <1943 hovah > shall come <0935 bow> > upon
mischief <1943 hovah > , and rumour <8052 sh@muw<ah > shall be
upon rumour <8052 sh@muw<ah > ; then shall they seek <1245
baqash > a vision <2377 chazown > of the prophet < 5030 nabiy> > ;
but the law <8451 towrah > shall perish <6> from the priest
<3548 kohen > , and counsel <6098 <etsah > from the ancients
<2204 zaqen > .

: 27 The king <4428 melek > shall mourn <56> , and the prince
<5387 nasiy> > shall be clothed <3847 labash > with desolation
<8077 sh@mamah > , and the hands <3027 yad > of the people

<3063 Y@huwdah > sat <3427 yashab > before <6440 paniym > me ,
that the hand <3027 yad > of the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069

: 02 Then I beheld <7200 ra>ah > , and lo <2009 hinneh > a

ma<al > , as the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of brightness <2096

.

: 03 And he put <7971 shalach > forth <7971 shalach > the form
<8403 tabniyth > of an hand <3027 yad > , and took <3947 laqach

and the spirit <7307 ruwach > lifted <5375 nasa> > me up between

the image <5566 cemel > of jealousy <7069 qanah > , which
provoketh to jealousy <7069 qanah > .

: 04 And , behold <2009 hinneh > , the glory <3519 kabowd >
of the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra> el > [ was ]
there <8033 sham > , according to the vision <4758 mar>eh >
that I saw <7200 ra>ah > in the plain <1237 biq<ah > .

: 05 Then said <0559 >amar > he unto me , Son <1121 ben > of
man <0120 >adam > , lift <5375 nasa> > up thine eyes <5869
<ayin > now <4994 na> > the way <1870 derek > toward the north
<6828 tsaphown > . So I lifted <5375 nasa> > up mine eyes <5869
<ayin > the way <1870 derek > toward the north < 6828 tsaphown > ,
and behold <2009 hinneh > northward <6828 tsaphown > at the
gate <8179 sha<ar > of the altar <4196 mizbeach > this <2088 zeh

: 06 He said <0559 >amar > furthermore unto me , Son <1121 ben

: 10 So I went <0935 bow> > in and saw <7200 ra> ah > ; and
behold <2009 hinneh > every <3605 kol > form <8403 tabniyth > of

: 12 Then said <0559 >amar > he unto me , Son <1121 ben > of

<1004 bayith > which <0834 >aher > [ was ] toward <5921 <al >

there <8033 sham > sat <3427 yashab > women <0802 >ishshah >
weeping <1058 bakah > for Tammuz <8542 Tammuwz > .

turn <7725 shuwb > thee yet <5750 <owd > again < 5750 <owd > ,
[ and ] thou shalt see <7200 ra>ah > greater <1419 gadowl >
abominations <8441 tow<ebah > than these <0428 >el - leh > .

: 16 And he brought <0935 bow> > me into <0413 > el > the inner

at the door <6607 pethach > of the temple <1964 heykal > of the
LORD <3068 Y@hovah > , between <0996 beyn > the porch <0197

<2568 chamesh > and twenty <6242 <esriym > men < 0376 >iysh > ,
with their backs <0268 >achowr > toward <0413 >el > the temple

<6440 paniym > toward the east <6924 qedem > ; and they
worshipped <7812 shachah > the sun <8121 shemesh > toward the
east <6924 qedem > .

: 17 Then he said <0559 >amar > unto me , Hast thou seen <7200

Is it a light <7043 qalal > thing to the house <1004 bayith > of
Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > that they commit <6213 <asah > the
abominations <8441 tow<ebah > which <0834 >aher > they commit
<6213 <asah > here <6311 poh > ? for they have filled <4390

and have returned <7725 shuwb > to provoke me to anger < 3707

the branch <2156 z@mowrah > to their nose <0639 >aph > .

: 18 Therefore will I also <1571 gam > deal <6213 < asah > in
fury <2534 chemah > : mine eye <5869 <ayin > shall not spare

: Ezekiel 9

: 01 . He cried <7121 qara> > also in mine ears < 0241 >ozen >
with a loud <1419 gadowl > voice <6963 qowl > , saying <0559

the higher <5945 >elyown > gate <8179 sha<ar > , which <0834

: 03 And the glory <3519 kabowd > of the God <0430 > elohiym >
of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > was gone <5927 <alah > up from the
cherub <3742 k@ruwb > , whereupon he was , to the threshold
<4670 miphtan > of the house <1004 bayith > . And he called
<7121 qara> > to the man <0376 >iysh > clothed <3847 labash >
with linen <0906 bad > , which <0834 >aher > [ had ] the
writer s <5608 caphar > inkhorn <7083 qeceth > by his side <4975

: 04 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto him ,
Go <5674 <abar > through <5674 <abar > the midst <8432 tavek >
of the city <5892 <iyr > , through the midst <8432 tavek > of
Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > , and set <8427 tavah > a mark
<8420 tav > upon the foreheads <4696 metsach > of the men <0582

for all <3605 kol > the abominations <8441 tow<ebah > that be
done <6213 <asah > in the midst <8432 tavek > thereof .

: 05 . And to the others <0428 >el - leh > he said < 0559 >amar

<0310 >achar > him through the city <5892 <iyr > , and smite
<5221 nakah > : let not your eye <5869 <ayin > spare <2347 chuwc

: 06 Slay <2026 harag > utterly old <2205 zaqen > [ and ]
young <0970 bachuwr > , both maids <1330 b@thuwlah > , and
little <2945 taph > children <2945 taph > , and women <0802

the mark <8420 tav > ; and begin <2490 chalal > at my sanctuary
<4720 miqdash > . Then they began <2490 chalal > at the ancient
<2204 zaqen > men <0582 >enowsh > which <0834 >aher > [ were ]
before <6440 paniym > the house <1004 bayith > .

: 07 And he said <0559 >amar > unto them , Defile < 2930 tame>

<3318 yatsa> > , and slew <5221 nakah > in the city <5892 <iyr

: 08 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass , while they were
slaying <5221 nakah > them , and I was left <7604 sha>ar > ,
that I fell <5307 naphal > upon my face <6440 paniym > , and
cried <2199 za<aq > , and said <0559 >amar > , Ah <0162 >ahahh

thy fury <2534 chemah > upon Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ?

: 09 Then said <0559 >amar > he unto me , The iniquity <5771
<avon > of the house <1004 bayith > of Israel < 3478 Yisra>el >
and Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > [ is ] exceeding <3966 m@<od >
great <1419 gadowl > , and the land <0776 >erets > is full
<4390 male> > of blood <1818 dam > , and the city <5892 <iyr >
full <4390 male> > of perverseness <4297 mutteh > : for they say
<0559 >amar > , The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath forsaken <5800
<azab > the earth <0776 >erets > , and the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >
seeth <7200 ra>ah > not .

: 10 And as for me also <1571 gam > , mine eye <5869 <ayin >
shall not spare <2347 chuwc > , neither <3808 lo> > will I have
pity <2550 chamal > , [ but ] I will recompense <5414 nathan

: 11 And , behold <2009 hinneh > , the man <0376 > iysh >
clothed <3847 labash > with linen <0906 bad > , which <0834

saying <0559 >amar > , I have done <6213 <asah > as thou hast
commanded <6680 tsavah > me .

: Ezekiel 10

: 01 . Then I looked <7200 ra>ah > , and , behold <2009
hinneh > , in the firmament <7549 raqiya< > that was above
<5921 <al > the head <7218 ro>sh > of the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb

a sapphire <5601 cappiyr > stone <68> , as the appearance <4758
mar>eh > of the likeness <1823 d@muwth > of a throne <3678

: 02 And he spake <0559 >amar > unto the man <0376 >iysh >
clothed <3847 labash > with linen <0906 bad > , and said <0559
>amar > , Go <0935 bow> > in between <0996 beyn > the wheels
<1534 galgal > , [ even ] under the cherub <3742 k@ruwb > ,
and fill <4390 male> > thine hand <2651 chophen > with coals
<1513 gechel > of fire <0784 >esh > from between <0996 beyn >
the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > , and scatter <2236 zaraq > [
them ] over <5921 <al > the city <5892 <iyr > . And he went
<0935 bow> > in in my sight <5869 <ayin > .

: 03 Now the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > stood <5975 < amad > on
<5921 <al > the right <3225 yamiyn > side <3225 yamiyn > of the
house <1004 bayith > , when the man <0376 >iysh > went <0935
bow> > in ; and the cloud <6051 <anan > filled <4390 male> >
the inner <6442 p@niymiy > court <2691 chatser > .

: 04 Then the glory <3519 kabowd > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >
went <7311 ruwm > up from the cherub <3742 k@ruwb > , [ and
stood ] over <5921 <al > the threshold <4670 miphtan > of the
house <1004 bayith > ; and the house <1004 bayith > was filled
<4390 male> > with the cloud <6051 <anan > , and the court
<2691 chatser > was full <4390 male> > of the brightness <5051
nogahh > of the LORD S <3068 Y@hovah > glory <3519 kabowd > .

: 05 And the sound <6963 qowl > of the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb >
wings <3671 kanaph > was heard <8085 shama< > [ even ] to the
outer <2435 chiytsown > court <2691 chatser > , as the voice
<6963 qowl > of the Almighty <7706 Shadday > God < 0410 >el >
when he speaketh <1696 dabar > .

: 06 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass , [ that ] when he
had commanded <6680 tsavah > the man <0376 >iysh > clothed <3847
labash > with linen <0906 bad > , saying <0559 > amar > , Take
<3947 laqach > fire <0784 >esh > from between < 0996 beyn > the
wheels <1534 galgal > , from between <0996 beyn > the cherubims
<3742 k@ruwb > ; then he went <0935 bow> > in , and stood
<5975 <amad > beside <0681 >etsel > the wheels <0212 >owphan > .

: 07 And [ one ] cherub <3742 k@ruwb > stretched < 7971
shalach > forth his hand <3027 yad > from between < 0996 beyn >
the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > unto the fire <0784 >esh > that [
was ] between <0996 beyn > the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > , and
took <5375 nasa> > [ thereof ] , and put <5414 nathan > [ it

] clothed <3847 labash > with linen <0906 bad > : who took
<3947 laqach > [ it ] , and went <3318 yatsa> > out .

: 08 . And there appeared <7200 ra>ah > in the cherubims <3742
k@ruwb > the form<8403 tabniyth > of a man s <0120 >adam > hand
<3027 yad > under <8478 tachath > their wings < 3671 kanaph > .

: 09 And when I looked <7200 ra>ah > , behold <2009 hinneh >
the four <0702 >arba< > wheels <0212 >owphan > by the cherubims
<3742 k@ruwb > , one <0259 >echad > wheel < 0212 >owphan > by
one <0259 >echad > cherub <3742 k@ruwb > , and another <0259

<3742 k@ruwb > : and the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of the wheels
<0212 >owphan > [ was ] as the colour <5869 < ayin > of a beryl
<8658 tarshiysh > stone <68> .

: 10 And [ as for ] their appearances <4758 mar>eh > , they
four <0702 >arba< > had <1961 hayah > one < 0259 >echad >
likeness <1823 d@muwth > , as if <0834 >aher > a wheel <0212

wheel <0212 >owphan > .

: 11 When they went <3212 yalak > , they went <3212 yalak >
upon their four <0702 >arba< > sides <7253 reba< > ; they
turned <5437 cabab > not as they went <3212 yalak > , but to
the place <4725 maqowm > whither <0834 >aher > the head <7218
ro>sh > looked <6437 panah > they followed it ; they turned
<5437 cabab > not as they went <3212 yalak > .

: 12 And their whole <3605 kol > body <1320 basar > , and
their backs <1354 gab > , and their hands <3027 yad > , and
their wings <3671 kanaph > , and the wheels <0212 > owphan > ,
[ were ] full <4392 male> > of eyes <5869 <ayin > round <5439
cabiyb > about , [ even ] the wheels <0212 >owphan > that
they four <0702 >arba< > had .

: 13 As for the wheels <0212 >owphan > , it was cried <7121
qara> > unto them in my hearing <0241 >ozen > , O wheel <1534
galgal > .

: 14 And every one <0259 >echad > had four <0702 > arba< > faces
<6440 paniym > : the first <0259 >echad > face < 6440 paniym > [
was ] the face <6440 paniym > of a cherub <3742 k@ruwb > , and
the second <8145 sheniy > face <6440 paniym > [ was ] the face
<6440 paniym > of a man <0120 >adam > , and the third <7992
sh@liyshiy > the face <6440 paniym > of a lion <0738 >ariy > ,
and the fourth <7243 r@biy<iy > the face <6440 paniym > of an
eagle <5404 nesher > .

: 15 And the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > were lifted <7426 ramam >
up . This <1931 huw> > [ is ] the living <2416 chay >
creature <2416 chay > that I saw <7200 ra>ah > by the river
<5104 nahar > of Chebar <3529 K@bar > .

: 16 And when the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > went <3212 yalak > ,
the wheels <0212 >owphan > went <3212 yalak > by them : and
when the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > lifted <5375 nasa> > up their
wings <3671 kanaph > to mount <7311 ruwm > up from the earth
<0776 >erets > , the same <1992 hem > wheels < 0212 >owphan >
also <1571 gam > turned <5437 cabab > not from beside <0681

: 17 When they stood <5975 <amad > , [ these ] stood <5975
<amad > ; and when they were lifted <7311 ruwm > up , [ these
] lifted <7426 ramam > up themselves [ also ] : for the
spirit <7307 ruwach > of the living <2416 chay > creature <2416

: 18 Then the glory <3519 kabowd > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >
departed <3318 yatsa> > from off <5921 <al > the threshold <4670
miphtan > of the house <1004 bayith > , and stood < 5975 <amad >
over <5921 <al > the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > .

: 19 And the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > lifted <5375 nasa> > up
their wings <3671 kanaph > , and mounted <7426 ramam > up from
the earth <0776 >erets > in my sight <5869 <ayin > : when they
went <3318 yatsa> > out , the wheels <0212 > owphan > also [
were ] beside <5980 <ummah > them , and [ every one ] stood
<5975 <amad > at the door <6607 pethach > of the east <6931
qadmowniy > gate <8179 sha<ar > of the LORD S < 3068 Y@hovah >

: 20 This <1931 huw> > [ is ] the living <2416 chay >

tachath > the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > by
the river <5104 nahar > of Chebar <3529 K@bar > ; and I knew
<3045 yada< > that they [ were ] the cherubims < 3742 k@ruwb > .


: 21 Every one <0259 >echad > had four <0702 > arba< > faces
<6440 paniym > apiece <0259 >echad > , and every one <0259

: 22 And the likeness <1823 d@muwth > of their faces < 6440
paniym > [ was ] the same <1992 hem > faces <6440 paniym >
which <0834 >aher > I saw <7200 ra>ah > by the river <5104 nahar

: 01 . Moreover the spirit <7307 ruwach > lifted <5375 nasa> >
me up , and brought <0935 bow> > me unto the east < 6931

house <1004 bayith > , which looketh <6437 panah > eastward
<6921 qadiym > : and behold <2009 hinneh > at the door <6607
pethach > of the gate <8179 sha<ar > five <2568 chamesh > and
twenty <6242 <esriym > men <0376 >iysh > ; among <8432 tavek >

this <1931 huw> > [ city is ] the caldron <5518 ciyr > , and
we [ be ] the flesh <1320 basar > .

: 04 Therefore <3651 ken > prophesy <5012 naba> > against <5921

: 05 And the Spirit <7307 ruwach > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >
fell <5307 naphal > upon me , and said <0559 >amar > unto me ,
Speak <0559 >amar > ; Thus <3541 koh > saith < 0559 >amar > the

I will judge <8199 shaphat > you in the border <1366 g@buwl >

<2199 za<aq > with a loud <1419 gadowl > voice < 6963 qowl > ,

I will take <5493 cuwr > the stony <68> heart < 3820 leb > out of
their flesh <1320 basar > , and will give <5414 nathan > them
an heart <3820 leb > of flesh <1320 basar > :

the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > [ was ]
over <5921 <al > them above <4605 ma<al > .

: 23 And the glory <3519 kabowd > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >
went <5927 <alah > up from the midst <8432 tavek > of the city
<5892 <iyr > , and stood <5975 <amad > upon the mountain <2022

side <6954 Q@helathah > of the city <5892 <iyr > .

: 24 Afterwards the spirit <7307 ruwach > took <5375 nasa> > me
up , and brought <0935 bow> > me in a vision <4758 mar>eh > by
the Spirit <7307 ruwach > of God <0430 >elohiym > into Chaldea

the vision <4758 mar>eh > that I had seen <7200 ra> ah > went
<5927 <alah > up from me .

: 25 Then I spake <1696 dabar > unto them of the captivity
<1473 gowlah > all <3605 kol > the things <1697 dabar > that the
LORD <3068 Y@hovah > had shewed <7200 ra>ah > me .

: Ezekiel 12

: 01 . The word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > also
came <1961 hayah > unto me , saying <0559 >amar > ,

: 02 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > , thou dwellest
<3427 yashab > in the midst <8432 tavek > of a rebellious <4805
m@riy > house <1004 bayith > , which <0834 >aher > have eyes
<5869 <ayin > to see <7200 ra>ah > , and see <7200 ra>ah > not ;
they have ears <0241 >ozen > to hear <8085 shama< > , and
hear <8085 shama< > not : for they [ are ] a rebellious <4805
m@riy > house <1004 bayith > .

: 03 Therefore , thou son <1121 ben > of man <0120 > adam > ,
prepare <6213 <asah > thee stuff <3627 k@liy > for removing
<1473 gowlah > , and remove <1540 galah > by day < 3119 yowmam >
in their sight <5869 <ayin > ; and thou shalt remove <1540
galah > from thy place <4725 maqowm > to another < 0312 >acher >
place <4725 maqowm > in their sight <5869 <ayin > : it may be
they will consider <7200 ra>ah > , though <3518 kabah > they [
be ] a rebellious <4805 m@riy > house <1004 bayith > .

: 04 Then shalt thou bring <3318 yatsa> > forth < 3318 yatsa> >
thy stuff <3627 k@liy > by day <3119 yowmam > in their sight
<5869 <ayin > , as stuff <3627 k@liy > for removing <1473
gowlah > : and thou shalt go <3318 yatsa> > forth < 3318 yatsa> >
at even <6153 <ereb > in their sight <5869 <ayin > , as they
that go <4161 mowtsa> > forth <4161 mowtsa> > into captivity
<1473 gowlah > .

: 05 Dig <2864 chathar > thou through the wall <7023 qiyr > in
their sight<5869 <ayin > , and carry <3318 yatsa> > out thereby
.

: 06 In their sight <5869 <ayin > shalt thou bear < 5375 nasa> >
[ it ] upon [ thy ] shoulders <3802 katheph > , [ and ]
carry <3318 yatsa> > [ it ] forth <3318 yatsa> > in the
twilight <5939 <alatah > : thou shalt cover <3680 kacah > thy
face <6440 paniym > , that thou see <7200 ra>ah > not the
ground <0776 >erets > : for I have set <5414 nathan > thee [
for ] a sign <4159 mowpheth > unto the house <1004 bayith > of
Israel <3478 Yisra>el > .

: 07 And I did <6213 <asah > so <3651 ken > as I was commanded
<6680 tsavah > : I brought <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> >
my stuff <3627 k@liy > by day <3119 yowmam > , as stuff <3627
k@liy > for captivity <1473 gowlah > , and in the even <6153
<ereb > I digged <2864 chathar > through the wall < 7023 qiyr >
with mine hand <3027 yad > ; I brought <3318 yatsa> > [ it ]
forth <3318 yatsa> > in the twilight <5939 <alatah > , [ and ]
I bare <5375 nasa> > [ it ] upon [ my ] shoulder <3802
katheph > in their sight <5869 <ayin > .

: 08 And in the morning <1242 boqer > came <1961 hayah > the
word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > unto me , saying
<0559 >amar > ,

: 09 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > , hath not the house
<1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > , the rebellious
<4805 m@riy > house <1004 bayith > , said <0559 >amar > unto
thee , What <4100 mah > doest <6213 <asah > thou ?

: 10 Say <0559 >amar > thou unto them , Thus <3541 koh > saith
<0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD < 3069 Y@hovih > ;
This <2088 zeh > burden <4853 massa> > [ concerneth ] the
prince <5387 nasiy> > in Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > , and
all <3605 kol > the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478
Yisra>el > that [ are ] among <8432 tavek > them .

: 11 Say <0559 >amar > , I [ am ] your sign <4159 mowpheth >
: like as I have done <6213 <asah > , so <3651 ken > shall it
be done <6213 <asah > unto them : they shall remove < 5493 cuwr >
[ and ] go <3212 yalak > into captivity <7628 sh@biy > .

: 12 And the prince <5387 nasiy> > that [ is ] among <8432
tavek > them shall bear <5375 nasa> > upon [ his ] shoulder
<3802 katheph > in the twilight <5939 <alatah > , and shall go
<3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > : they shall dig <2864
chathar > through the wall <7023 qiyr > to carry < 3318 yatsa> >
out thereby : he shall cover <3680 kacah > his face < 6440 paniym

with [ his ] eyes <5869 <ayin > .

: 13 My net <7568 resheth > also will I spread <6566 paras >
upon him , and he shall be taken <8610 taphas > in my snare
<4686 matsuwd > : and I will bring <0935 bow> > him to Babylon
<0894 Babel > [ to ] the land <0776 >erets > of the Chaldeans
<3779 Kasday > ; yet shall he not see <7200 ra>ah > it ,
though he shall die <4191 muwth > there <8033 sham > .

: 14 And I will scatter <2219 zarah > toward every < 3605 kol >
wind <7307 ruwach > all <3605 kol > that [ are ] about <5439
cabiyb > him to help <5828 <ezer > him , and all < 3605 kol >
his bands <0102 >aggaph > ; and I will draw <7324 ruwq > out
the sword <2719 chereb > after <0310 >achar > them .

: 15 And they shall know <3045 yada< > that I [ am ] the LORD
<3068 Y@hovah > , when I shall scatter <6327 puwts > them among
the nations <1471 gowy > , and disperse <2219 zarah > them in
the countries <0776 >erets > .

: 16 But I will leave <3498 yathar > a few <4557 micpar > men
<0582 >enowsh > of them from the sword <2719 chereb > , from
the famine <7458 ra<ab > , and from the pestilence < 1698 deber

abominations <8441 tow<ebah > among the heathen <1471 gowy >
whither they come <0935 bow> > ; and they shall know <3045
yada< > that I [ am ] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

: 17 . Moreover the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD < 3068
Y@hovah > came <1961 hayah > to me , saying <0559 >amar > ,

: 18 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > , eat <0398 >akal >
thy bread <3899 lechem > with quaking <7494 ra<ash > , and
drink <8354 shathah > thy water <4325 mayim > with trembling
<7269 rogzah > and with carefulness <1674 d@>agah > ;

: 19 And say <0559 >amar > unto the people <5971 < am > of the
land <0127 >adamah > , Thus <3541 koh > saith < 0559 >amar > the
Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > of the inhabitants
<3427 yashab > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > , [ and ] of
the land <0776 >erets > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ; They shall
eat <0398 >akal > their bread <3899 lechem > with carefulness
<1674 d@>agah > , and drink <8354 shathah > their water <4325
mayim > with astonishment <8078 shimmamown > , that her land
<0776 >erets > may be desolate <3456 yasham > from all <4393
m@lo> > that is therein <4393 m@lo> > , because of the violence
<2555 chamac > of all <3605 kol > them that dwell < 3427 yashab >
therein .

: 20 And the cities <5892 <iyr > that are inhabited < 3427
yashab > shall be laid waste <2717 charab > , and the land
<0776 >erets > shall be desolate <8077 sh@mamah > ; and ye
shall know <3045 yada< > that I [ am ] the LORD < 3068 Y@hovah

: 21 . And the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >
came <1961 hayah > unto me , saying <0559 >amar > ,

: 22 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > , what <4100 mah >
[ is ] that proverb <4912 mashal > [ that ] ye have in the
land <0127 >adamah > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > , saying <0559

and every <3605 kol > vision <2377 chazown > faileth <6> ?

: 23 Tell <0559 >amar > them therefore <3651 ken > , Thus
<3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD
<3069 Y@hovih > ; I will make this <2088 zeh > proverb <4912
mashal > to cease <7673 shabath > , and they shall no <3808 lo>

mashal > in Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ; but say < 1696 dabar >
unto them , The days <3117 yowm > are at <7196 qishshur > hand
<7126 qarab > , and the effect <1697 dabar > of every <3605 kol

: 24 For there shall be no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > any
vain <7723 shav> > vision <2377 chazown > nor flattering <2509
chalaq > divination <4738 miqcam > within <8432 tavek > the
house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > .

: 25 For I [ am ] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > : I will speak
<1696 dabar > , and the word <1697 dabar > that I shall speak
<1696 dabar > shall come <6213 <asah > to pass < 6213 <asah > ;
it shall be no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > prolonged <4900

word <1697 dabar > , and will perform <6213 <asah > it , saith
<5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD < 3069 Y@hovih > .

: 26 Again the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >
came <1961 hayah > to me , saying <0559 >amar > ,

: 27 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > , behold <2009

of the times <6256 <eth > [ that are ] far <7350 rachowq > off
.

: 28 Therefore <3651 ken > say <0559 >amar > unto them , Thus
<3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD
<3069 Y@hovih > ; There shall none <3808 lo> > of my words

<5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD < 3069 Y@hovih > .

: Ezekiel 13

: 01 . And the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >
came <1961 hayah > unto me , saying <0559 >amar > ,

foolish <5036 nabal > prophets <5030 nabiy> > , that follow
their own spirit <7307 ruwach > , and have seen <7200 ra>ah >
nothing <1115 biltiy > !

: 04 O Israel <3478 Yisra>el > , thy prophets <5030 nabiy> >
are like the foxes <7776 shuw<al > in the deserts < 2723 chorbah

: 05 Ye have not gone <5927 <alah > up into the gaps <6556

: 06 They have seen <2372 chazah > vanity <7723 shav> > and
lying <3577 kazab > divination <7081 qecem > , saying <0559

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath not sent <7971 shalach > them :
and they have made [ others ] to hope <3176 yachal > that they
would confirm <6965 quwm > the word <1697 dabar > .

: 07 Have ye not seen <2372 chazah > a vain <7723 shav> >
vision <4236 machazeh > , and have ye not spoken <1696 dabar >
a lying <3577 kazab > divination <4738 miqcam > , whereas ye
say <0559 >amar > , The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > saith <5002 n@>um

: 08 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; Because <3282
ya<an > ye have spoken <1696 dabar > vanity <7723 shav> > , and

behold <2005 hen > , I [ am ] against <0413 >el > you ,
saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >
.

: 09 And mine hand <3027 yad > shall be upon the prophets <5030

that divine <7080 qacam > lies <3576 kazab > : they shall not be

ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I [ am ] the Lord < 0136

Where <0346 >ayeh > [ is ] the daubing <2915 tiyach >

: 13 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; I will even rend

: 22 Because <3282 ya<an > with lies <3576 kazab > ye have made
the heart <3820 leb > of the righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > sad

strengthened <2388 chazaq > the hands <3027 yad > of the wicked

<1818 dam > , I said <0559 >amar > unto thee [ when thou wast
] in thy blood <1818 dam > , Live <2421 chayah > ; yea , I
said <0559 >amar > unto thee [ when thou wast ] in thy blood
<1818 dam > , Live <2421 chayah > .

: 07 I have caused <5414 nathan > thee to multiply < 7233
r@babah > as the bud <6779 tsamach > of the field < 7704 sadeh > ,
and thou hast increased <7235 rabah > and waxen great < 1431
gadal > , and thou art come <0935 bow> > to excellent <5716
<adiy > ornaments <5716 <adiy > : [ thy ] breasts <7699 shad >
are fashioned <3559 kuwn > , and thine hair <8181 se< ar > is
grown <6779 tsamach > , whereas thou [ wast ] naked < 5903
<eyrom > and bare <6181 <eryah > .

: 08 Now when I passed <5674 <abar > by thee , and looked
<7200 ra>ah > uponthee , behold <2009 hinneh > , thy time
<6256 <eth > [ was ] the time <6256 <eth > of love <1730 dowd

<5921 <al > thee , and covered <3680 kacah > thy nakedness
<6172 <ervah > : yea , I sware <7650 shaba< > unto thee , and
entered <0935 bow> > into a covenant <1285 b@riyth > with thee ,
saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih

: 09 Then washed <7364 rachats > I thee with water < 4325 mayim

<1818 dam > from thee , and I anointed <5480 cuwk > thee with
oil <8081 shemen > .

: 10 I clothed <3847 labash > thee also with broidered < 7553
riqmah > work <7553 riqmah > , and shod <5274 na< al > thee with
badgers <8476 tachash > skin , and I girded <2280 chabash >
thee about with fine linen <8336 shesh > , and I covered <3680
kacah > thee with silk <4897 meshiy > .

: 11 I decked <5710 <adah > thee also with ornaments <5716
<adiy > , and I put <5414 nathan > bracelets < 6781 tsamiyd >
upon thy hands <3027 yad > , and a chain <7242 rabiyd > on
<5921 <al > thy neck <1627 garown > .

: 12 And I put <5414 nathan > a jewel <5141 nexem > on <5921
<al > thy forehead <0639 >aph > , and earrings <5694 <agiyl >
in thine ears <0241 >ozen > , and a beautiful <8597 tiph>arah >
crown <5850 <atarah > upon thine head <7218 ro>sh > .

: 13 Thus wast thou decked <5710 <adah > with gold < 2091 zahab

[ was of ] fine linen <8336 shesh > , and silk <4897 meshiy > ,
and broidered <7553 riqmah > work <7553 riqmah > ; thou didst
eat <0398 >akal > fine flour <5560 coleth > , and honey <1706
d@bash > , and oil <8081 shemen > : and thou wast exceeding
<3966 m@<od > beautiful <3303 yapheh > , and thou didst prosper
<6743 tsalach > into a kingdom <4410 m@luwkah > .

: 14 And thy renown <8034 shem > went <3318 yatsa> > forth
<3318 yatsa> > among the heathen <1471 gowy > for thy beauty
<3308 yophiy > : for it [ was ] perfect <3632 kaliyl > through
my comeliness <1926 hadar > , which <0834 >aher > I had put
<7760 suwm > upon thee , saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136
>Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > .

: 15 . But thou didst trust <0982 batach > in thine own beauty
<3308 yophiy > , and playedst the harlot <2181 zanah > because
<5921 <al > of thy renown <8034 shem > , and pouredst <8210
shaphak > out thy fornications <8457 taznuwth > on every <3605
kol > one that passed <5674 <abar > by ; his it was .

: 16 And of thy garments <0899 beged > thou didst take < 3947
laqach > , and deckedst <6213 <asah > thy high < 1116 bamah >
places with divers <2921 tala> > colours <2921 tala> > , and
playedst the harlot <2181 zanah > thereupon : [ the like things
] shall not come <0935 bow> > , neither <3808 lo> > shall it
be [ so ] .

: 17 Thou hast also taken <3947 laqach > thy fair <8597
tiph>arah > jewels <3627 k@liy > of my gold <2091 zahab > and of
my silver <3701 keceph > , which <0834 >aher > I had given
<5414 nathan > thee , and madest <6213 <asah > to thyself
images <6754 tselem > of men <2145 zakar > , and didst commit
<2181 zanah > whoredom <2181 zanah > with them ,

: 18 And tookest <3947 laqach > thy broidered <7553 riqmah >
garments <0899 beged > , and coveredst them : and thou hast set
<5414 nathan > mine oil <8081 shemen > and mine incense <7004
q@toreth > before <6440 paniym > them .

: 19 My meat <3899 lechem > also which <0834 >aher > I gave
<5414 nathan > thee , fine flour <5560 coleth > , and oil
<8081 shemen > , and honey <1706 d@bash > , [ wherewith ] I
fed <0398 >akal > thee , thou hast even set <5414 nathan > it
before <6440 paniym > them for a sweet <5207 nichowach > savour
<7381 reyach > : and [ thus ] it was , saith <5002 n@>um >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > .

: 20 Moreover thou hast taken <3947 laqach > thy sons < 1121 ben

borne <3205 yalad > unto me , and these hast thou sacrificed
<2076 zabach > unto them to be devoured <0398 >akal > . [ Is
this ] of thy whoredoms <8457 taznuwth > a small <4592 m@<at >
matter ,

: 21 That thou hast slain <7819 shachat > my children < 1121 ben

<5674 <abar > through [ the fire ] for them ?

: 22 And in all <3605 kol > thine abominations <8441 tow<ebah >
and thy whoredoms <8457 taznuwth > thou hast not remembered
<2142 zakar > the days <3117 yowm > of thy youth < 5271 na<uwr > ,
when thou wast <1961 hayah > naked <5903 <eyrom > and bare
<6181 <eryah > , [ and ] wast <1961 hayah > polluted <0947
buwc > in thy blood <1818 dam > .

: 23 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass after <0310 > achar > all
<3605 kol > thy wickedness <7451 ra< > , ( woe , woe <0188
>owy > unto thee ! saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay >
GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; )

: 24 [ That ] thou hast also built <1129 banah > unto thee an
eminent <1354 gab > place , and hast made <6213 < asah > thee an
high <7413 ramah > place in every <3605 kol > street <7339
r@chob > .

: 25 Thou hast built <1129 banah > thy high <7413 ramah > place
at <0413 >el > every <3605 kol > head <7218 ro>sh > of the way
<1870 derek > , and hast made thy beauty <3308 yophiy > to be
abhorred <8581 ta<ab > , and hast opened <6589 pasaq > thy feet
<7272 regel > to every <3605 kol > one that passed <5674 <abar >
by , and multiplied <7235 rabah > thy whoredoms <8457 taznuwth

: 26 Thou hast also committed <2181 zanah > fornication <2181
zanah > with the Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim > thy neighbours
<7934 shaken > , great <1432 gadel > of flesh < 1320 basar > ;
and hast increased <7235 rabah > thy whoredoms <8457 taznuwth > ,
to provoke me to anger <3707 ka<ac > .

: 27 Behold <2009 hinneh > , therefore I have stretched <5186
natah > out my hand <3027 yad > over <5921 <al > thee , and
have diminished <1639 gara< > thine ordinary <2706 choq > [
food ] , and delivered <5414 nathan > thee unto the will <5314
naphash > of them that hate <8130 sane> > thee , the daughters
<1121 ben > of the Philistines <6430 P@lishtiy > , which are
ashamed <3637 kalam > of thy lewd <2154 zimmah > way <1870 derek
> .

: 28 Thou hast played the whore <2181 zanah > also with the
Assyrians <0804 >Ashshuwr > , because <1115 biltiy > thou wast
unsatiable ; yea , thou hast played the harlot <2181 zanah >
with them , and yet couldest not be satisfied <7646 saba< > .

: 29 Thou hast moreover multiplied <7235 rabah > thy
fornication <8457 taznuwth > in the land <0776 >erets > of
Canaan <3667 K@na<an > unto Chaldea <3778 Kasdiy > ; and yet
<1571 gam > thou wast not satisfied <7646 saba< > herewith .

: 30 How <4100 mah > weak <0535 >amal > is thine heart <3826
libbah > , saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 > Adonay > GOD
<3069 Y@hovih > , seeing thou doest <6213 <asah > all <3605 kol

<0802 >ishshah > ;

: 31 In that thou buildest <1129 banah > thine eminent < 1354
gab > place in the head <7218 ro>sh > of every < 3605 kol > way
<1870 derek > , and makest <6213 <asah > thine high <7413 ramah

not been <1961 hayah > as an harlot <2181 zanah > , in that
thou scornest <7046 qalac > hire <0868 >ethnan > ;

: 32 [ But as ] a wife <0802 >ishshah > that committeth <5003
na>aph > adultery <5003 na>aph > , [ which ] taketh <3947
laqach > strangers <2114 zuwr > instead <8478 tachath > of her
husband <0376 >iysh > !

: 33 They give <5414 nathan > gifts <5078 nedeh > to all <3605
kol > whores <2181 zanah > : but thou givest <5414 nathan > thy
gifts <5083 nadan > to all <3605 kol > thy lovers < 0157 >ahab > ,
and hirest <7806 shazar > them , that they may come < 0935
bow> > unto thee on every <5437 cabab > side <5439 cabiyb > for
thy whoredom <8457 taznuwth > .

: 34 And the contrary <2016 hephek > is in thee from [ other ]
women <0802 >ishshah > in thy whoredoms <8457 taznuwth > ,
whereas none <3808 lo> > followeth <0310 >achar > thee to commit
<2181 zanah > whoredoms <2181 zanah > : and in that thou givest
<5414 nathan > a reward <0868 >ethnan > , and no <3808 lo> >
reward <0868 >ethnan > is given <5414 nathan > unto thee ,
therefore thou art contrary <2016 hephek > .

: 35 . Wherefore <3651 ken > , O harlot <2181 zanah > , hear
<8085 shama< > the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah

: 36 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136
>Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; Because <3282 ya<an > thy
filthiness <5178 n@chosheth > was poured <8210 shaphak > out ,
and thy nakedness <6172 <ervah > discovered <1540 galah >
through thy whoredoms <8457 taznuwth > with thy lovers < 0157

thy abominations <8441 tow<ebah > , and by the blood <1818 dam

give <5414 nathan > unto them ;

: 37 Behold <2005 hen > , therefore <3651 ken > I will gather
<6908 qabats > all <3605 kol > thy lovers <0157 >ahab > , with
whom <0834 >aher > thou hast taken pleasure <6148 < arab > , and
all <3605 kol > [ them ] that thou hast loved <0157 >ahab > ,
with all <3605 kol > [ them ] that thou hast hated < 8130 sane>

about against <5921 <al > thee , and will discover < 1540 galah

<7200 ra>ah > all <3605 kol > thy nakedness < 6172 <ervah > .

: 38 And I will judge <8199 shaphat > thee , as women that
break <5003 na>aph > wedlock <5003 na>aph > and shed <8210
shaphak > blood <1818 dam > are judged <4941 mishpat > ; and I
will give <5414 nathan > thee blood <1818 dam > in fury <2534
chemah > and jealousy <7068 qin>ah > .

: 39 And I will also give <5414 nathan > thee into their hand
<3027 yad > , and they shall throw <2040 harac > down <2040
harac > thine eminent <1354 gab > place , and shall break <5422
nathats > down <5422 nathats > thy high <7413 ramah > places :
they shall strip <6584 pashat > thee also of thy clothes <0899
beged > , and shall take <3947 laqach > thy fair < 8597
tiph>arah > jewels <3627 k@liy > , and leave < 3241 Yaniym >
thee naked <5903 <eyrom > and bare <6181 <eryah > .

: 40 They shall also bring <5927 <alah > up a company <6951
qahal > against <5921 <al > thee , and they shall stone <7275
ragam > thee with stones <68> , and thrust <1333 bathaq > thee
through with their swords <2719 chereb > .

: 41 And they shall burn <8313 saraph > thine houses < 1004
bayith > with fire <0784 >esh > , and execute < 6213 <asah >
judgments <8201 shephet > upon thee in the sight <5869 <ayin >
of many <7227 rab > women <0802 >ishshah > : and I will cause
thee to cease <7673 shabath > from playing the harlot < 2181
zanah > , and thou also <1571 gam > shalt give <5414 nathan >
no <3808 lo> > hire <0868 >ethnan > any more <5750 <owd > .

: 42 So will I make my fury <2534 chemah > toward thee to rest
<5117 nuwach > , and my jealousy <7068 qin>ah > shall depart
<5493 cuwr > from thee , and I will be quiet <8252 shaqat > ,
and will be no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > angry <3707 ka<ac >
.

: 43 Because thou hast not remembered <2142 zakar > the days
<3117 yowm > of thy youth <5271 na<uwr > , but hast fretted
<7264 ragaz > me in all <3605 kol > these <0428 >el - leh > [
things ] ; behold <1887 he> > , therefore I also < 1571 gam >
will recompense <5414 nathan > thy way <1870 derek > upon [
thine ] head <7218 ro>sh > , saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord
<0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > : and thou shalt not commit
<6213 <asah > this lewdness <2154 zimmah > above <5921 <al > all
<3605 kol > thine abominations <8441 tow<ebah > .

: 44 . Behold <2009 hinneh > , every <3605 kol > one that
useth proverbs <4911 mashal > shall use <4911 mashal > [ this ]
proverb <4911 mashal > against <5921 <al > thee , saying <0559

daughter <1323 bath > .

: 45 Thou [ art ] thy mother s <0517 >em > daughter <1323

and her children <1121 ben > ; and thou [ art ] the sister
<0269 >achowth > of thy sisters <0269 >achowth > , which <0834

their children <1121 ben > : your mother <0517 >em > [ was ]
an Hittite <2850 Chittiy > , and your father <1> an Amorite
<0567 >Emoriy > .

: 46 And thine elder <1419 gadowl > sister <0269 > achowth > [
is ] Samaria <8111 Shom@rown > , she and her daughters <1121

right <3225 yamiyn > hand <3225 yamiyn > , [ is ] Sodom <5467
C@dom > and her daughters <1121 ben > .

: 47 Yet hast thou not walked <1980 halak > after their ways
<1870 derek > , nor done <6213 <asah > after their abominations
<8441 tow<ebah > : but , as [ if that were ] a very <6985 qat

: 48 [ As ] I live <2416 chay > , saith <5002 n@> um > the
Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > , Sodom <5467 C@dom >
thy sister <0269 >achowth > hath not done <6213 < asah > , she
nor her daughters <1121 ben > , as thou hast done <6213 <asah >
, thou and thy daughters <1121 ben > .

: 49 Behold <2009 hinneh > , this <2088 zeh > was the iniquity
<5771 <avon > of thy sister <0269 >achowth > Sodom <5467 C@dom >
, pride <1347 ga>own > , fulness <7653 sib<ah > of bread <3899
lechem > , and abundance <7962 shalvah > of idleness <8252

<3808 lo> > did she strengthen <2388 chazaq > the hand <3027 yad

: 50 And they were haughty <1361 gabahh > , and committed
<6213 <asah > abomination <8441 tow<ebah > before <6440 paniym >
me : therefore I took <5493 cuwr > them away <5493 cuwr > as I
saw <7200 ra>ah > [ good ] .

: 51 Neither <3808 lo> > hath Samaria <8111 Shom@rown >
committed <2398 chata> > half <2677 chetsiy > of thy sins <2403
chatta>ah > ; but thou hast multiplied <7235 rabah > thine
abominations <8441 tow<ebah > more than they , and hast
justified <6663 tsadaq > thy sisters <0269 >achowth > in all
<3605 kol > thine abominations <8441 tow<ebah > which <0834

: 52 Thou also <1571 gam > , which <0834 >aher > hast judged
<6419 palal > thy sisters <0269 >achowth > , bear <5375 nasa> >
thine own shame <3639 k@limmah > for thy sins <2403 chatta>ah >
that thou hast committed <8581 ta<ab > more abominable <8581

thou : yea <1571 gam > , be thou confounded <0954 buwsh > also
<1571 gam > , and bear <5375 nasa> > thy shame <3639 k@limmah >
, in that thou hast justified <6663 tsadaq > thy sisters <0269

: 53 When I shall bring <7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb > their
captivity <7622 sh@buwth > , the captivity <7622 sh@buwth > of
Sodom <5467 C@dom > and her daughters <1121 ben > , and the
captivity <7622 sh@buwth > of Samaria <8111 Shom@rown > and her
daughters <1121 ben > , then [ will I bring again ] the
captivity <7622 sh@buwth > of thy captives <7628 sh@biy > in the
midst <8432 tavek > of them :

: 54 That thou mayest bear <5375 nasa> > thine own shame <3639
k@limmah > , and mayest be confounded <3637 kalam > in all
<3605 kol > that thou hast done <6213 <asah > , in that thou
art a comfort <5162 nacham > unto them .

: 55 When thy sisters <0269 >achowth > , Sodom < 5467 C@dom >
and her daughters <1121 ben > , shall return <7725 shuwb > to
their former <6927 qadmah > estate , and Samaria <8111

then thou and thy daughters <1121 ben > shall return < 7725 shuwb

: 56 For thy sister <0269 >achowth > Sodom <5467 C@dom > was
not mentioned <8052 sh@muw<ah > by thy mouth <6310 peh > in the
day <3117 yowm > of thy pride <1347 ga>own > ,

: 57 Before <2962 terem > thy wickedness <7451 ra< > was
discovered <1540 galah > , as at the time <6256 <eth > of [
thy ] reproach <2781 cherpah > of the daughters <1121 ben > of
Syria <0758 >Aram > , and all <3605 kol > [ that are ] round

Philistines <6430 P@lishtiy > , which despise <7590 sha>t >
thee round <5439 cabiyb > about .

: 58 Thou hast borne <5375 nasa> > thy lewdness < 2154 zimmah >
and thine abominations <8441 tow<ebah > , saith < 5002 n@>um >
the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

: 59 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136
>Adonay > GOD<3069 Y@hovih > ; I will even deal < 6213 <asah >
with thee as thou hast done <6213 <asah > , which < 0834 >aher >
hast despised <0959 bazah > the oath <0423 >alah > in breaking
<6565 parar > the covenant <1285 b@riyth > .

: 60 . Nevertheless I will remember <2142 zakar > my covenant
<1285 b@riyth > with thee in the days <3117 yowm > of thy youth
<5271 na<uwr > , and I will establish <6965 quwm > unto thee an
everlasting <5769 <owlam > covenant <1285 b@riyth > .

: 61 Then thou shalt remember <2142 zakar > thy ways < 1870

receive <3947 laqach > thy sisters <0269 >achowth > , thine
elder <1419 gadowl > and thy younger <6996 qatan > : and I will

: Ezekiel 17

: 01 . And the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >
came <1961 hayah > unto me , saying <0559 >amar > ,

: 02 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > , put <2330 chuwd >
forth <2330 chuwd > a riddle <2420 chiydah > , and speak <4911
mashal > a parable <4912 mashal > unto the house < 1004 bayith >
of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ;

: 03 And say <0559 >amar > , Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559
>amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; A great
<1419 gadowl > eagle <5404 nesher > with great < 1419 gadowl >
wings <3671 kanaph > , longwinged , full <4392 male> > of
feathers <5133 nowtsah > , which <0834 >aher > had divers <7553
riqmah > colours <7553 riqmah > , came <0935 bow> > unto
Lebanon <3844 L@banown > , and took <3947 laqach > the highest
<6788 tsammereth > branch <6788 tsammereth > of the cedar <0730

: 04 He cropped <6998 qataph > off the top <7218 ro> sh > of his
young <3242 y@niqah > twigs <3242 y@niqah > , and carried <0935
bow> > it into a land <0776 >erets > of traffick <3667 K@na<an >
; he set <7760 suwm > it in a city <5892 <iyr > of merchants
<7402 rakal > .

: 05 He took <3947 laqach > also of the seed <2233 zera< > of
the land <0776 >erets > , and planted it in a fruitful <2233
zera< > field <7704 sadeh > ; he placed <3947 laqach > [ it ]
by great <7227 rab > waters <4325 mayim > , [ and ] set <7760
suwm > it [ as ] a willow <6851 tsaphtsaphah > tree .

: 06 And it grew <6779 tsamach > , and became <1961 hayah > a
spreading <5627 carah > vine <1612 gephen > of low <8217 shaphal

turned <6437 panah > toward <0413 >el > him , and the roots
<8328 sheresh > thereof were under <8478 tachath > him : so it
became <1961 hayah > a vine <1612 gephen > , and brought <5375
nasa> > forth <6213 <asah > branches <0905 bad > , and shot
<7971 shalach > forth sprigs <6288 p@>orah > .

: 07 There was also another <0259 >echad > great < 1419 gadowl >
eagle <5404 nesher > with great <1419 gadowl > wings <3671
kanaph > and many <7227 rab > feathers <5133 nowtsah > : and ,
behold <2009 hinneh > , this <2063 zo>th > vine <1612 gephen >
did bend <3719 kaphan > her roots <8328 sheresh > toward <5921
<al > him , and shot <7971 shalach > forth her branches <1808
daliyah > toward <5921 <al > him , that he might water <8248
shaqah > it by the furrows <6170 <aruwgah > of her plantation
<4302 matta< > .

: 08 It was planted <8362 shathal > in a good <2896 towb > soil
<7704 sadeh > by great <7227 rab > waters <4325 mayim > , that
it might bring <6213 <asah > forth <6213 <asah > branches <6057
<anaph > , and that it might bear <5375 nasa> > fruit <6529
p@riy > , that it might be a goodly <0155 >addereth > vine
<1612 gephen > .

: 09 Say <0559 >amar > thou , Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559
>amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; Shall it
prosper <6743 tsalach > ? shall he not pull <5423 nathaq > up
the roots <8328 sheresh > thereof , and cut <7082 qacac > off
the fruit <6529 p@riy > thereof , that it wither <3001 yabesh >
? it shall wither <3001 yabesh > in all <3605 kol > the leaves
<2964 tereph > of her spring <6780 tsemach > , even without
<3808 lo> > great <1419 gadowl > power <2220 z@rowa< > or many
<7227 rab > people <5971 <am > to pluck <5375 nasa> > it up by
the roots <8328 sheresh > thereof .

: 10 Yea , behold <2009 hinneh > , [ being ] planted <8362
shathal > , shall it prosper <6743 tsalach > ? shall it not
utterly wither <3001 yabesh > , when the east <6921 qadiym >
wind <7307 ruwach > toucheth <5060 naga< > it ? it shall wither
<3001 yabesh > in the furrows <6170 <aruwgah > where <5921 <al >
it grew <6780 tsemach > .

: 11 Moreover the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah

: 12 Say <0559 >amar > now <4994 na> > to the rebellious <4805

<4100 mah > these <0428 >el - leh > [ things mean ] ? tell
<0559 >amar > [ them ] , Behold <2009 hinneh > , the king
<4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > is come < 0935 bow> > to
Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > , and hath taken <3947 laqach >
the king <4428 melek > thereof , and the princes <8269 sar >
thereof , and led <0935 bow> > them with him to Babylon <0894
Babel > ;

: 13 And hath taken <3947 laqach > of the king s <4410 m@luwkah

b@riyth > with him , and hath taken <0935 bow> > an oath <0423

<0352 >ayil > of the land <0776 >erets > :

: 14 That the kingdom <4467 mamlakah > might be base < 8217
shaphal > , that it might not lift <5375 nasa> > itself up ,
[ but ] that by keeping <8104 shamar > of his covenant < 1285
b@riyth > it might stand <5975 <amad > .

: 15 But he rebelled <4775 marad > against him in sending <7971
shalach > his ambassadors <4397 mal>ak > into Egypt <4714
Mitsrayim > , that they might give <5414 nathan > him horses
<5483 cuwc > and much <7227 rab > people <5971 < am > . Shall he
prosper <6743 tsalach > ? shall he escape <4422 malat > that
doeth <6213 <asah > such <0428 >el - leh > [ things ] ? or
shall he break <6565 parar > the covenant <1285 b@riyth > , and
be delivered <4422 malat > ?

: 16 [ As ] I live <2416 chay > , saith <5002 n@> um > the
Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > , surely in the place
<4725 maqowm > [ where ] the king <4428 melek > [ dwelleth ]
that made him king <4427 malak > , whose oath <0423 > alah > he
despised <0959 bazah > , and whose <0853 >eth > covenant <1285
b@riyth > he brake <6565 parar > , [ even ] with him in the
midst <8432 tavek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > he shall die <4191

: 17 Neither <3808 lo> > shall Pharaoh <6547 Par< oh > with [
his ] mighty <1419 gadowl > army <2428 chayil > and great <7227
rab > company <6951 qahal > make <6213 <asah > for him in the
war <4421 milchamah > , by casting <8210 shaphak > up mounts
<5550 col@lah > , and building <1129 banah > forts <1785 dayeq

: 18 Seeing he despised <0959 bazah > the oath <0423 >alah > by
breaking <6565 parar > the covenant <1285 b@riyth > , when ,
lo <2009 hinneh > , he had given <5414 nathan > his hand <3027
yad > , and hath done <6213 <asah > all <3605 kol > these <0428

: 19 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; [ As ] I live
<2416 chay > , surely mine oath <0423 >alah > that he hath
despised <0959 bazah > , and my covenant <1285 b@riyth > that
he hath broken <6331 puwr > , even it will I recompense <5414
nathan > upon his own head <7218 ro>sh > .

: 20 And I will spread <6566 paras > my net <7568 resheth >
upon him , and he shall be taken <8610 taphas > in my snare
<4686 matsuwd > , and I will bring <0935 bow> > him to Babylon
<0894 Babel > , and will plead <8199 shaphat > with him there
<8033 sham > for his trespass <4604 ma<al > that he hath
trespassed <4604 ma<al > against me .

: 21 And all <3605 kol > his fugitives <4015 mibrach > with all
<3605 kol > his bands <0102 >aggaph > shall fall <5307 naphal >
by the sword <2719 chereb > , and they that remain < 7604 sha>ar

: 22 . Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136

of the highest <6788 tsammereth > branch <6788 tsammereth > of

: 23 In the mountain <2022 har > of the height <4791 marowm >
of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > will I plant <8362 shathal > it : and
it shall bring <5375 nasa> > forth <5375 nasa> > boughs <6057

shall they dwell <7931 shakan > .

: 24 And all <3605 kol > the trees <6086 <ets > of the field
<7704 sadeh > shall know <3045 yada< > that I the LORD <3068

and have made the dry <3002 yabesh > tree <6086 <ets > to

: Ezekiel 18

: 01 . The word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came
<1961 hayah > unto me again , saying <0559 >amar > ,

: 02 What <4100 mah > mean ye , that ye use <4911 mashal >
this <2088 zeh > proverb <4911 mashal > concerning <5921 <al >
the land <0127 >adamah > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > , saying
<0559 >amar > , The fathers <1> have eaten < 0398 >akal > sour
<1155 bocer > grapes <1154 becer > , and the children s <1121

: 03 [ As ] I live <2416 chay > , saith <5002 n@> um > the

: 04 Behold <2005 hen > , all <3605 kol > souls < 5315 nephesh

shall not die <4191 muwth > for the iniquity <5771 < avon > of
his father <1> , he shall surely live <2421 chayah > .

: 18 [ As for ] his father <1> , because <3588 kiy > he
cruelly <6233 <osheq > oppressed <6231 <ashaq > , spoiled <1497

not the son <1121 ben > bear <5375 nasa> > the iniquity <5771

: 20 The soul <5315 nephesh > that sinneth <2398 chata> > , it
shall die <4191 muwth > . The son <1121 ben > shall not bear
<5375 nasa> > the iniquity <5771 <avon > of the father <1> ,
neither <3808 lo> > shall the father <1> bear < 5375 nasa> > the

righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > of the righteous <6662 tsaddiyq >
shall be upon him , and the wickedness <7564 rish<ah > of the

: 21 . But if the wicked <7563 rasha< > will turn < 7725 shuwb

that he hath done <6213 <asah > he shall live <2421 chayah > .

: 23 Have I any pleasure <2654 chaphets > at all that the

not that he should return <7725 shuwb > from his ways < 1870

: 24 But when the righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > turneth < 7725

All <3605 kol > his righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > that he hath

: 25 Yet ye say <0559 >amar > , The way <1870 derek > of the
Lord <0136 >Adonay > is not equal <8505 takan > . Hear <8085
shama< > now <4994 na> > , O house <1004 bayith > of Israel
<3478 Yisra>el > ; Is not my way <1870 derek > equal <8505
takan > ? are not your ways <1870 derek > unequal ?

: 26 When a righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > [ man ] turneth <7725
shuwb > away from his righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > , and
committeth <6213 <asah > iniquity <5766 <evel > , and dieth
<4191 muwth > in them ; for his iniquity <5766 <evel > that he
hath done <6213 <asah > shall he die <4191 muwth > .

: 27 Again , when the wicked <7563 rasha< > [ man ] turneth
<7725 shuwb > away from his wickedness <7564 rish<ah > that he
hath committed <6213 <asah > , and doeth <6213 < asah > that
which is lawful <4941 mishpat > and right <6666 ts@daqah > , he
shall save <2421 chayah > his soul <5315 nephesh > alive <2421
chayah > .

: 28 Because he considereth <7200 ra>ah > , and turneth <7725
shuwb > away from all <3605 kol > his transgressions < 6588
pesha< > that he hath committed <6213 <asah > , he shall surely
live <2421 chayah > , he shall not die <4191 muwth > .

: 29 Yet saith <0559 >amar > the house <1004 bayith > of Israel
<3478 Yisra>el > , The way <1870 derek > of the Lord <0136

of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > , are not my ways <1870 derek >
equal <8505 takan > ? are not your ways <1870 derek > unequal ?

: 30 . Therefore <3651 ken > I will judge <8199 shaphat > you ,
O house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > , every

<3069 Y@hovih > . Repent <7725 shuwb > , and turn <7725 shuwb

<6588 pesha< > ; so iniquity <5771 <avon > shall not be your
ruin <4383 mikshowl > .

: 31 Cast <7993 shalak > away from you all <3605 kol > your
transgressions <6588 pesha< > , whereby <0834 > aher > ye have
transgressed <6586 pasha< > ; and make <6213 < asah > you a new
<2319 chadash > heart <3820 leb > and a new <2319 chadash >
spirit <7307 ruwach > : for why <4100 mah > will ye die <4191
muwth > , O house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ?

: 32 For I have no <3808 lo> > pleasure <2654 chaphets > in the
death <4194 maveth > of him that dieth <4191 muwth > , saith
<5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD < 3069 Y@hovih > :
wherefore turn <7725 shuwb > [ yourselves ] , and live <2421

: 01 . Moreover take <5375 nasa> > thou up a lamentation <7015

: 02 And say <0559 >amar > , What <4100 mah > [ is ] thy

among <8432 tavek > young <3715 k@phiyr > lions < 3715 k@phiyr > .


: 03 And she brought <5927 <alah > up one <0259 > echad > of her
whelps <1482guwr > : it became <1961 hayah > a young <3715
k@phiyr > lion <3715 k@phiyr > , and it learned < 3925 lamad >
to catch <2963 taraph > the prey <2964 tereph > ; it devoured
<0398 >akal > men <0120 >adam > .

: 04 The nations <1471 gowy > also heard <8085 shama< > of him ;
he was taken <8610 taphas > in their pit <7845 shachath > ,
and they brought <0935 bow> > him with chains <2397 chach > unto
the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > .

: 05 Now when she saw <7200 ra>ah > that she had waited <3176

then she took <3947 laqach > another <0259 >echad > of her
whelps <1482 guwr > , [ and ] made <7760 suwm > him a young
<3715 k@phiyr > lion <3715 k@phiyr > .

: 06 And he went <1980 halak > up and down among <8432 tavek >
the lions <0738 >ariy > , he became <1961 hayah > a young <3715

catch <2963 taraph > the prey <2964 tereph > , [ and ]
devoured <0398 >akal > men <0120 >adam > .

: 07 And he knew <3045 yada< > their desolate <0490 >almanah >
palaces , and he laid waste <2717 charab > their cities <5892

: 08 Then the nations <1471 gowy > set <5414 nathan > against
<5921 <al > him on every <5437 cabab > side < 5439 cabiyb > from

: 09 And they put <5414 nathan > him in ward <5474 cuwgar > in
chains <2397 chach > , and brought <0935 bow> > him to the king
<4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > : they brought <0935 bow>

full of branches <6058 <aneph > by reason of many < 7227 rab >
waters <4325 mayim > .

: 11 And she had <1961 hayah > strong <5797 <oz > rods <4294

dried <3001 yabesh > up her fruit <6529 p@riy > : her strong

withered <3001 yabesh > ; the fire <0784 >esh > consumed <0398

: 04 Wilt thou judge <8199 shaphat > them , son <1121 ben > of
man <0120 >adam > , wilt thou judge <8199 shaphat > [ them ]
? cause them to know <3045 yada< > the abominations < 8441
tow<ebah > of their fathers <1> :

: 05 . And say <0559 >amar > unto them , Thus < 3541 koh >
saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >
; In the day <3117 yowm > when I chose <0977 bachar > Israel

Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > , and made myself known <3045 yada< >
unto them in the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > ,
when I lifted <5375 nasa> > up mine hand <3027 yad > unto them
, saying <0559 >amar > , I [ am ] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >
your God <0430 >elohiym > ;

: 06 In the day <3117 yowm > [ that ] I lifted <5375 nasa> >
up mine hand <3027 yad > unto them , to bring <3318 yatsa> >
them forth <3318 yatsa> > of the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt
<4714 Mitsrayim > into <0413 >el > a land <0776 >erets > that I

<0776 >erets > :

: 07 Then said <0559 >amar > I unto them , Cast < 7993 shalak >

: 08 But they rebelled <4784 marah > against me , and would
<14> not hearken <8085 shama< > unto me : they did not every man
<0376 >iysh > cast <7993 shalak > away the abominations <8251
shiqquwts > of their eyes <5869 <ayin > , neither <3808 lo> >
did they forsake <5800 <azab > the idols <1544 gilluwl > of
Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > : then I said <0559 >amar > , I will
pour <8210 shaphak > out my fury <2534 chemah > upon them , to
accomplish <3615 kalah > my anger <0639 >aph > against them in
the midst <8432 tavek > of the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt
<4714 Mitsrayim > .

: 09 But I wrought <6213 <asah > for my name s <8034 shem >

: 10 . Wherefore I caused them to go <3318 yatsa> > forth
<3318 yatsa> > out of the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714
Mitsrayim > , and brought <0935 bow> > them into < 0413 >el >
the wilderness <4057 midbar > .

: 11 And I gave <5414 nathan > them my statutes <2708 chuqqah >
, and shewed <3045 yada< > them my judgments <4941 mishpat > ,
which <0834 >aher > [ if ] a man <0120 >adam > do <6213 <asah

: 13 But the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >
rebelled <4784 marah > against me in the wilderness < 4057 midbar

which <0834 >aher > [ if ] a man <0120 >adam > do <6213

sabbaths <7676 shabbath > they greatly <3966 m@<od > polluted
<2490 chalal > : then I said <0559 >amar > , I would pour <8210

: 14 But I wrought <6213 <asah > for my name s <8034 shem >

: 15 Yet also <1571 gam > I lifted <5375 nasa> > up my hand
<3027 yad > unto them in the wilderness <4057 midbar > , that I
would not bring <0935 bow> > them into <0413 >el > the land

honey <1706 d@bash > , which <1958 hiy > [ is ] the glory of

: 16 Because <3282 ya<an > they despised <3988 ma> ac > my
judgments <4941 mishpat > , and walked <1980 halak > not in my
statutes <2708 chuqqah > , but polluted <2490 chalal > my
sabbaths <7676 shabbath > : for their heart <3820 leb > went
<1980 halak > after <0310 >achar > their idols < 1544 gilluwl > .

: 17 Nevertheless mine eye <5869 <ayin > spared < 2347 chuwc >
them from destroying <7843 shachath > them , neither < 3808 lo>

wilderness <4057 midbar > .

: 18 But I said <0559 >amar > unto their children < 1121 ben >
in the wilderness <4057 midbar > , Walk <3212 yalak > ye not in
the statutes <2706 choq > of your fathers <1> , neither <0408

nor <0408 >al > defile <2930 tame> > yourselves with their idols
<1544 gilluwl > :

: 19 I [ am ] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > your God <0430

and keep <8104 shamar > my judgments <4941 mishpat > , and do
<6213 <asah > them ;

: 20 And hallow <6942 qadash > my sabbaths <7676 shabbath > ;
and they shall be a sign <0226 >owth > between <0996 beyn > me

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > your God <0430 >elohiym > .

: 21 Notwithstanding the children <1121 ben > rebelled < 4784
marah > against me : they walked <1980 halak > not in my
statutes <2708 chuqqah > , neither <3808 lo> > kept <8104
shamar > my judgments <4941 mishpat > to do <6213 < asah > them ,
which <0834 >aher > [ if ] a man <0120 >adam > do <6213 <asah

<2490 chalal > my sabbaths <7676 shabbath > : then I said <0559

against them in the wilderness <4057 midbar > .

: 22 Nevertheless I withdrew <7725 shuwb > mine hand < 3027 yad

<4616 ma<an > , that it should not be polluted <2490 chalal >
in the sight <5869 <ayin > of the heathen <1471 gowy > , in
whose <0834 >aher > sight <5869 <ayin > I brought <3318 yatsa> >
them forth <3318 yatsa> > .

: 23 I lifted <5375 nasa> > up mine hand <3027 yad > unto them
also <1571 gam > in the wilderness <4057 midbar > , that I
would scatter <6327 puwts > them among the heathen <1471 gowy > ,
and disperse <2219 zarah > them through the countries < 0776

: 24 Because <3282 ya<an > they had not executed < 6213 <asah >
my judgments <4941 mishpat > , but had despised <3988 ma>ac >
my statutes <2708 chuqqah > , and had polluted <2490 chalal >
my sabbaths <7676 shabbath > , and their eyes <5869 < ayin >
were after <0310 >achar > their fathers <1> idols <1544 gilluwl

: 25 Wherefore I gave <5414 nathan > them also <1571 gam >
statutes <2706 choq > [ that were ] not good <2896 towb > ,
and judgments <4941 mishpat > whereby they should not live <2421
chayah > ;

: 26 And I polluted <2930 tame> > them in their own gifts <4979
mattanah > , in that they caused to pass <5674 <abar > through
[ the fire ] all <3605 kol > that openeth <6363 peter > the
womb <7356 racham > , that I might make them desolate < 8074

: 27 . Therefore <3651 ken > , son <1121 ben > of man <0120

Israel <3478 Yisra>el > , and say <0559 >amar > unto them ,
Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord < 0136 >Adonay >
GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; Yet <5750 <owd > in this <2063 zo>th >
your fathers <1> have blasphemed <1442 gadaph > me , in that
they have committed <4600 ma<ak > a trespass <4604 ma<al >

: 28 [ For ] when I had brought <0935 bow> > them into <0413

offered <2076 zabach > there <8033 sham > their sacrifices <2077
zebach > , and there <8033 sham > they presented < 5414 nathan >
the provocation <3708 ka<ac > of their offering <7133 qorban > :
there <8033 sham > also they made <7760 suwm > their sweet <5207
nichowach > savour <7381 reyach > , and poured <5258 nacak >
out there <8033 sham > their drink <5262 necek > offerings .

: 29 Then I said <0559 >amar > unto them , What < 4100 mah > [

? And the name <8034 shem > thereof is called <7121 qara> >
Bamah <1117 Bamah > unto this <2088 zeh > day < 3117 yowm > .

: 30 Wherefore <3651 ken > say <0559 >amar > unto the house
<1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > , Thus <3541 koh >
saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >
; Are ye polluted <2930 tame> > after the manner < 1870 derek >
of your fathers <1> ? and commit <2181 zanah > ye whoredom
<2181 zanah > after <0310 >achar > their abominations <8251

: 31 For when ye offer <5375 nasa> > your gifts < 4979 mattanah

through the fire <0784 >esh > , ye pollute <2930 tame> >
yourselves with all <3605 kol > your idols <1544 gilluwl > ,
even unto this day <3117 yowm > : and shall I be enquired <1875

: 32 And that which cometh <5927 <alah > into <5921 <al > your

: 03 And say <0559 >amar > to the land <0127 > adamah > of
Israel <3478 Yisra>el > , Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >
the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ; Behold <2005 hen > , I [ am ]

ta<ar > , and will cut <3772 karath > off from thee the
righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > and the wicked <7563 rasha< > .

: 04 Seeing <3282 ya<an > then that I will cut <3772 karath >
off from thee the righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > and the wicked
<7563 rasha< > , therefore shall my sword <2719 chereb > go

man <0120 >adam > , with the breaking <7670 shibrown > of [
thy ] loins <4975 mothen > ; and with bitterness <4814
m@riyruwth > sigh <0584 >anach > before their eyes <5869 <ayin >
.

: 07 And it shall be , when <3588 kiy > they say <0559 >amar >
unto thee , Wherefore sighest <0584 >anach > thou ? that thou
shalt answer <0559 >amar > , For the tidings <8052 sh@muw<ah > ;
because <3588 kiy > it cometh <0935 bow> > : and every <3605

<2719 chereb > , a sword <2719 chereb > is sharpened <2300
chadad > , and also <1571 gam > furbished <4803 marat > :

: 10 It is sharpened <2300 chadad > to make a sore slaughter
<2873 tabach > ; it is furbished <4803 marat > that it may
glitter <1300 baraq > : should we then <0176 >ow > make mirth
<7797 suws > ? it contemneth <3988 ma>ac > the rod <7626 shebet

: 11 And he hath given <5414 nathan > it to be furbished <4803
marat > , that it may be handled : this <1931 huw> > sword
<2719 chereb > is sharpened <2300 chadad > , and it is
furbished <4803 marat > , to give <5414 nathan > it into the
hand <3027 yad > of the slayer <2026 harag > .

: 12 Cry <2199 za<aq > and howl <3213 yalal > , son <1121 ben

upon my people <5971 <am > : smite <5606 caphaq > therefore upon
[ thy ] thigh <3409 yarek > .

: 13 Because <3588 kiy > [ it is ] a trial <0974 bachan > ,
and what <4100 mah > if <0518 >im > [ the sword ] contemn
<3988 ma>ac > even <1571 gam > the rod <7626 shebet > ? it
shall be no <3808 lo> > [ more ] , saith <5002 n@>um > the
Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > .

: 14 Thou therefore , son <1121 ben > of man <0120 > adam > ,
prophesy <5012 naba> > , and smite <5221 nakah > [ thine ]
hands <3709 kaph > together , and let the sword <2719 chereb >
be doubled <3717 kaphal > the third <7992 sh@liyshiy > time ,
the sword <2719 chereb > of the slain <2491 chalal > : it [ is
] the sword <2719 chereb > of the great <1419 gadowl > [ men
that are ] slain <2491 chalal > , which entereth into their
privy <2314 chadar > chambers <2315 cheder > .

: 15 I have set <5414 nathan > the point <19> of the sword
<2719 chereb > against <5921 <al > all <3605 kol > their gates
<8179 sha<ar > , that [ their ] heart <3820 leb > may faint
<4127 muwg > , and [ their ] ruins <4383 mikshowl > be
multiplied <7235 rabah > : ah <0253 >ach > ! [ it is ] made
bright <1300 baraq > , [ it is ] wrapped <4593 ma< ot > up for
the slaughter <2875 Tebach > .

: 16 Go <0258 >achad > thee one way or other , [ either ] on
the right <3231 yaman > hand <3221 yam > , [ or ] on the left
<8041 sama>l > , whithersoever <0575 >an > thy face <6440
paniym > [ is ] set <3259 ya<ad > .

: 17 I will also <1571 gam > smite <5221 nakah > mine hands
<3709 kaph > together , and I will cause my fury <2534 chemah >
to rest <5117 nuwach > : I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have said
<1696 dabar > [ it ] .

: 18 . The word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came
<1961 hayah > unto me again , saying <0559 >amar > ,

: 19 Also , thou son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > ,
appoint <7760 suwm > thee two <8147 sh@nayim > ways <1870 derek

Babylon <0894 Babel > may come <0935 bow> > : both twain <8147
sh@nayim > shall come <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > out of
one <0259 >echad > land <0776 >erets > : and choose <1254 bara>

the head <7218 ro>sh > of the way <1870 derek > to the city
<5892 <iyr > .

: 20 Appoint <7760 suwm > a way <1870 derek > , that the sword
<2719 chereb > may come <0935 bow> > to Rabbath <7237 Rabbah >
of the Ammonites <5984 <Ammowniy > , and to Judah < 3063
Y@huwdah > in Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > the defenced <1219
batsar > .

: 21 For the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > stood
<5975 <amad > at <0413 >el > the parting < 0517 >em > of the way
<1870 derek > , at the head <7218 ro>sh > of the two <8147
sh@nayim > ways <1870 derek > , to use <7080 qacam > divination
<7081 qecem > : he made [ his ] arrows <2671 chets > bright
<7043 qalal > , he consulted <7592 sha>al > with images <8655
t@raphiym > , he looked <7200 ra>ah > in the liver <3516 kabed

: 22 At his right <3225 yamiyn > hand <3225 yamiyn > was the
divination <7081 qecem > for Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,
to appoint <7760 suwm > captains <3733 kar > , to open <6605
pathach > the mouth <6310 peh > in the slaughter < 7524 retsach >
, to lift <7311 ruwm > up the voice <6963 qowl > with shouting
<8643 t@ruw<ah > , to appoint <7760 suwm > [ battering ] rams
<3733 kar > against <5921 <al > the gates <8179 sha<ar > , to
cast <8210 shaphak > a mount <5550 col@lah > , [ and ] to
build <1129 banah > a fort <1785 dayeq > .

: 23 And it shall be unto them as a false <7723 shav> >
divination <7080 qacam > in their sight <5869 <ayin > , to them
that have sworn <7650 shaba< > oaths <7621 sh@buw< ah > : but he
will call <2142 zakar > to remembrance <2142 zakar > the
iniquity <5771 <avon > , that they may be taken < 8610 taphas > .


: 24 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; Because <3282
ya<an > ye have made your iniquity <5771 <avon > to be
remembered <2142 zakar > , in that your transgressions < 6588
pesha< > are discovered <1540 galah > , so that in all <3605

do appear <7200 ra>ah > ; because <3282 ya<an > , [ I say ] ,
that ye are come to remembrance <2142 zakar > , ye shall be
taken <8610 taphas > with the hand <3079 Y@howyaqiym > .

: 25 And thou , profane <2491 chalal > wicked <7563 rasha< >
prince <5387 nasiy> > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > , whose <0834

shaphal > , and abase <8213 shaphel > [ him that is ] high
<1364 gaboahh > .

: 27 I will overturn <5754 <avvah > , overturn < 5754 <avvah > ,
overturn <5754 <avvah > , it : and it shall be no < 3808 lo> >

concerning <0413 >el > their reproach <2781 cherpah > ; even
say <0559 >amar > thou , The sword <2719 chereb > , the sword

slaughter <2875 Tebach > [ it is ] furbished <4803 marat > ,
to consume <0398 >akal > because <4616 ma<an > of the glittering

: 29 Whiles they see <2372 chazah > vanity <7723 shav> > unto

unto thee , to bring <5414 nathan > thee upon the necks <6677

: 30 Shall I cause [ it ] to return <7725 shuwb > into his
sheath <8593 ta<ar > ? I will judge <8199 shaphat > thee in the
place <4725 maqowm > where <0834 >aher > thou wast created <1254

<0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD < 3069 Y@hovih > ,
The city <5892 <iyr > sheddeth <8210 shaphak > blood <1818 dam >

: 04 Thou art become <0816 >asham > guilty <0816 > asham > in
thy blood <1818 dam > that thou hast shed <8210 shaphak > ; and
hast defiled <2930 tame> > thyself in thine idols < 1544 gilluwl

hast caused thy days <3117 yowm > to draw near <7126 qarab > ,
and art come <0935 bow> > [ even ] unto thy years < 8141 shaneh

reproach <2781 cherpah > unto the heathen <1471 gowy > , and a
mocking <7048 qallacah > to all <3605 kol > countries <0776

: 05 [ Those that be ] near <7138 qarowb > , and [ those

qalac > thee , [ which art ] infamous [ and ] much < 7227

: 06 Behold <2009 hinneh > , the princes <5387 nasiy> > of
Israel <3478 Yisra>el > , every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh >
were in thee to their power <2220 z@rowa< > to shed < 8210

: 07 In thee have they set light <7043 qalal > by father <1>
and mother <0517 >em > : in the midst <8432 tavek > of thee have
they dealt <6213 <asah > by oppression <6233 < osheq > with the
stranger <1616 ger > : in thee have they vexed <3238 yanah > the
fatherless <3490 yathowm > and the widow <0490 > almanah > .

: 08 Thou hast despised <0959 bazah > mine holy <6944 qodesh >
things , and hast profaned <2490 chalal > my sabbaths < 7676

: 09 In thee are men <0582 >enowsh > that carry < 7400 rakiyl >
tales <7400 rakiyl > to shed <8210 shaphak > blood <1818 dam > :
and in thee they eat <0398 >akal > upon the mountains <2022 har

lewdness <2154 zimmah > .

: 10 In thee have they discovered <1540 galah > their fathers
<1> nakedness <6172 <ervah > : in thee have they humbled <6031

pollution <2931 tame> > .

: 11 And one hath committed <6213 <asah > abomination <8441

: 12 In thee have they taken <3947 laqach > gifts <7810 shachad

<3947 laqach > usury <5392 neshek > and increase < 8635 tarbuwth

forgotten <7911 shakach > me , saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord
<0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > .

thine hands <3027 yad > be strong <2388 chazaq > , in the days
<3117 yowm > that I shall deal <6213 <asah > with thee ? I the
LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have spoken <1696 dabar > [ it ] , and
will do <6213 <asah > [ it ] .

: 15 And I will scatter <6327 puwts > thee among the heathen

: 16 And thou shalt take thine inheritance <2490 chalal > in

and thou shalt know <3045 yada< > that I [ am ] the LORD

: 17 . And the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >
came <1961 hayah > unto me , saying <0559 >amar > ,

: 18 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > , the house <1004

dross <5509 ciyg > of silver <3701 keceph > .

: 19 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; Because <3282
ya<an > ye are all <3605 kol > become <1961 hayah > dross <5509

gather <6908 qabats > you into <0413 >el > the midst <8432 tavek

: 20 [ As ] they gather <6910 q@butsah > silver <3701 keceph

and lead <5777 <owphereth > , and tin <0913 b@diyl > , into

to blow <5301 naphach > the fire <0784 >esh > upon it , to
melt <5413 nathak > [ it ] ; so <3651 ken > will I gather
<6908 qabats > [ you ] in mine anger <0639 >aph > and in my
fury <2534 chemah > , and I will leave <3241 Yaniym > [ you
there ] , and melt <5413 nathak > you .

: 21 Yea , I will gather <3664 kanac > you , and blow <5301
naphach > upon you in the fire <0784 >esh > of my wrath <5678
<ebrah > , and ye shall be melted <5413 nathak > in the midst
<8432 tavek > thereof .

: 22 As silver <3701 keceph > is melted <2046 hittuwk > in the

upon you .

: 23 . And the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >
came <1961 hayah > unto me , saying <0559 >amar > ,

: 24 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > , say <0559 >amar >
unto her , Thou [ art ] the land <0776 >erets > that is not
cleansed <2891 taher > , nor <3808 lo> > rained <1656 goshem >

: 25 [ There is ] a conspiracy <7195 qesher > of her prophets

treasure <2633 chocen > and precious <3366 y@qar > things ;
they have made her many <7235 rabah > widows <0490 > almanah > in
the midst <8432 tavek > thereof .

: 26 Her priests <3548 kohen > have violated <2554 chamac > my
law <8451 towrah > , and have profaned <2490 chalal > mine holy
<6944 qodesh > things : they have put no <3808 lo> > difference
between <0996 beyn > the holy <6944 qodesh > and profane <2455

the clean <2889 tahowr > , and have hid <5956 <alam > their
eyes <5869 <ayin > from my sabbaths <7676 shabbath > , and I am
profaned <2490 chalal > among <8432 tavek > them .

: 27 Her princes <8269 sar > in the midst <7130 qereb > thereof
[ are ] like wolves <2061 z@>eb > ravening <2963 taraph > the
prey <2964 tereph > , to shed <8210 shaphak > blood <1818 dam >
, [ and ] to destroy <6> souls <5315 nephesh > , to get
<1214 batsa< > dishonest <1215 betsa< > gain <1214 batsa< > .

: 28 And her prophets <5030 nabiy> > have daubed < 2902 tuwach >
them with untempered <8602 taphel > [ morter ] , seeing
vanity <7723 shav> > , and divining <7080 qacam > lies <3576

saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >
, when the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath not spoken <1696 dabar > .

: 29 The people <5971 <am > of the land <0776 > erets > have
used oppression <6233 <osheq > , and exercised robbery <1498

stranger <1616 ger > wrongfully .

: 30 And I sought <1245 baqash > for a man <0376 > iysh > among
them , that should make <1443 gadar > up the hedge < 1447 gader

<6440 paniym > me for the land <0776 >erets > , that I should
not destroy <7843 shachath > it : but I found <4672 matsa> >
none <3808 lo> > .

: 31 Therefore have I poured <8210 shaphak > out mine
indignation <2195 za<am > upon them ; I have consumed <3615

: Ezekiel 23

: 01 . The word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came
<1961 hayah > again unto me , saying <0559 >amar > ,

: 02 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > , there were two
<8147 sh@nayim > women <0802 >ishshah > , the daughters <1121
ben > of one <0259 >echad > mother <0517 >em > :

: 03 And they committed <2181 zanah > whoredoms in Egypt <4714
Mitsrayim > ; they committed <2181 zanah > whoredoms in their
youth <5271 na<uwr > : there <8033 sham > were their breasts
<7699 shad > pressed <4600 ma<ak > , and there <8033 sham >
they bruised <6213 <asah > the teats <1717 dad > of their
virginity <1331 b@thuwliym > .

: 04 And the names <8034 shem > of them [ were ] Aholah <0170
>Oholah > the elder <1419 gadowl > , and Aholibah <0172
>Oholiybah > her sister <0269 >achowth > : and they were mine ,
and they bare <3205 yalad > sons <1121 ben > and daughters <1121
ben > . Thus [ were ] their names <8034 shem > ; Samaria
<8111 Shom@rown > [ is ] Aholah <0170 >Oholah > , and
Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > Aholibah <0172 > Oholiybah > .

: 05 And Aholah <0170 >Oholah > played the harlot < 2181 zanah >
when she was mine ; and she doted <5689 <agab > on < 0413 >el >
her lovers <0157 >ahab > , on <0413 >el > the Assyrians <0804
>Ashshuwr > [ her ] neighbours <7138 qarowb > ,

: 06 [ Which were ] clothed <3847 labash > with blue < 8504
t@keleth > , captains<6346 pechah > and rulers <5461 cagan > ,
all <3605 kol > of them desirable <2531 chemed > young <0970
bachuwr > men , horsemen <6571 parash > riding <7392 rakab >
upon horses <5483 cuwc > .

: 07 Thus she committed <5414 nathan > her whoredoms < 8457
taznuwth > with them , with all them [ that were ] the chosen
<4005 mibchar > men <1121 ben > of Assyria <0804 >Ashshuwr > ,
and with all <3605 kol > on whom <0834 >aher > she doted <5689
<agab > : with all <3605 kol > their idols <1544 gilluwl > she
defiled <2930 tame> > herself .

: 08 Neither <3808 lo> > left <5800 <azab > she her whoredoms
<8457 taznuwth > [ brought ] from Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > :
for in her youth <5271 na<uwr > they lay <7901 shakab > with her
, and they bruised <6213 <asah > the breasts <1717 dad > of her
virginity <1331 b@thuwliym > , and poured <8210 shaphak > their
whoredom <8457 taznuwth > upon her .

: 09 Wherefore <3651 ken > I have delivered <5414 nathan > her
into the hand <3027 yad > of her lovers <0157 >ahab > , into
the hand <3027 yad > of the Assyrians <0804 >Ashshuwr > , upon
whom <0834 >aher > she doted <5689 <agab > .

: 10 These <1992 hem > discovered <1540 galah > her nakedness
<6172 <ervah > : they took <3947 laqach > her sons <1121 ben >
and her daughters <1121 ben > , and slew her with the sword
<2719 chereb > : and she became <1961 hayah > famous <8034 shem

<asah > judgment <8196 sh@phowt > upon her .

: 11 . And when <3588 kiy > her sister <0269 > achowth >
Aholibah <0172 >Oholiybah > saw <7200 ra>ah > [ this ] , she
was more corrupt <7843 shachath > in her inordinate < 5691
<agabah > love <5691 <agabah > than she , and in her whoredoms
<8457 taznuwth > more than her sister <0269 >achowth > in [ her
] whoredoms <2183 zanuwn > .

: 12 She doted <5689 <agab > upon the Assyrians < 0804 >Ashshuwr

and rulers <5461 cagan > clothed <3847 labash > most gorgeously
<4358 miklowl > , horsemen <6571 parash > riding < 7392 rakab >
upon horses <5483 cuwc > , all <3605 kol > of them desirable
<2531 chemed > young <0970 bachuwr > men .

: 13 Then I saw <7200 ra>ah > that she was defiled < 2930 tame>

>echad > way <1870 derek > ,

: 14 And [ that ] she increased <3254 yacaph > her whoredoms
<8457 taznuwth > : for when she saw <7200 ra>ah > men <0582
>enowsh > pourtrayed <2707 chaqah > upon the wall < 7023 qiyr > ,
the images <6754 tselem > of the Chaldeans <3779 Kasday >
pourtrayed <2710 chaqaq > with vermilion <8350 shashar > ,

: 15 Girded <2289 chagowr > with girdles <0232 > ezowr > upon
their loins <4975 mothen > , exceeding <5628 carach > in dyed
<2871 tabuwl > attire <2871 tabuwl > upon their heads <7218
ro>sh > , all <3605 kol > of them princes <7991 shaliysh > to
look <4758 mar>eh > to , after the manner <1823 d@muwth > of
the Babylonians of Chaldea <3778 Kasdiy > , the land < 0776
>erets > of their nativity <4138 mowledeth > :

: 16 And as soon <4758 mar>eh > as she saw them with her eyes
<5869 <ayin > , she doted <5689 <agab > upon them , and sent
<7971 shalach > messengers <4397 mal>ak > unto them into Chaldea
<3778 Kasdiy > .

: 17 And the Babylonians came <0935 bow> > to her into the bed
<4904 mishkab > of love <1730 dowd > , and they defiled <2930
tame> > her with their whoredom <8457 taznuwth > , and she was
polluted <2930 tame> > with them , and her mind < 5315 nephesh >
was alienated <3363 yaqa< > from them .

: 18 So she discovered <1540 galah > her whoredoms < 8457
taznuwth > , and discovered <1540 galah > her nakedness <6172
<ervah > : then my mind <5315 nephesh > was alienated <3363
yaqa< > from her , like as my mind <5315 nephesh > was
alienated <5361 naqa< > from her sister <0269 > achowth > .

: 19 Yet she multiplied <7235 rabah > her whoredoms < 8457
taznuwth > , in calling <2142 zakar > to remembrance <2142
zakar > the days <3117 yowm > of her youth <5271 na<uwr > ,
wherein <0834 >aher > she had played the harlot <2181 zanah > in
the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > .

: 20 For she doted <5689 <agab > upon their paramours <6370
piylegesh > , whose flesh <1320 basar > [ is as ] the flesh
<1320 basar > of asses <2543 chamowr > , and whose issue <2231
zirmah > [ is like ] the issue <2231 zirmah > of horses <5483
cuwc > .

: 21 Thus thou calledst <6485 paqad > to remembrance < 6485
paqad > the lewdness <2154 zimmah > of thy youth < 5271 na<uwr > ,
in bruising <6213 <asah > thy teats <1717 dad > by the
Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim > for the paps <7699 shad > of thy
youth <5271 na<uwr > .

: 22 . Therefore <3651 ken > , O Aholibah <0172 > Oholiybah > ,
thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay >
GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; Behold <2005 hen > , I will raise <5782
<uwr > up thy lovers <0157 >ahab > against < 5921 <al > thee ,
from whom thy mind <5315 nephesh > is alienated <5361 naqa< > ,
and I will bring <0935 bow> > them against <5921 < al > thee on
every <5437 cabab > side <5439 cabiyb > ;

: 23 The Babylonians , and all <3605 kol > the Chaldeans <3779
Kasday > , Pekod <6489 P@qowd > , and Shoa <7772 Showa< > ,
and Koa <6970 Qowa< > , [ and ] all <3605 kol > the Assyrians

<2531 chemed > young <0970 bachuwr > men , captains <6346

lords <7991 shaliysh > and renowned <7121 qara> > , all <3605
kol > of them riding <7392 rakab > upon horses <5483 cuwc > .

: 24 And they shall come <0935 bow> > against <5921 <al > thee
with chariots <2021 hotsen > , wagons <7393 rekeb > , and
wheels <1534 galgal > , and with an assembly <6951 qahal > of
people <5971 <am > , [ which ] shall set <7760 suwm > against
<5921 <al > thee buckler <6793 tsinnah > and shield <4043 magen

will set <5414 nathan > judgment <4941 mishpat > before <6440
paniym > them , and they shall judge <8199 shaphat > thee
according to their judgments <4941 mishpat > .

: 25 And I will set <5414 nathan > my jealousy <7068 qin>ah >
against thee , and they shall deal <6213 <asah > furiously
<2534 chemah > with thee : they shall take <5493 cuwr > away
<5493 cuwr > thy nose <0639 >aph > and thine ears <0241 >ozen > ;
and thy remnant <0319 >achariyth > shall fall <5307 naphal >
by the sword <2719 chereb > : they shall take <3947 laqach > thy
sons <1121 ben > and thy daughters <1121 ben > ; and thy
residue <0319 >achariyth > shall be devoured <0398 >akal > by
the fire <0784 >esh > .

: 26 They shall also strip <6584 pashat > thee out of thy
clothes <0899 beged > , and take <3947 laqach > away thy fair
<8597 tiph>arah > jewels <3627 k@liy > .

: 27 Thus will I make thy lewdness <2154 zimmah > to cease
<7673 shabath > from thee , and thy whoredom <2184 z@nuwth > [
brought ] from the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt < 4714 Mitsrayim

: 28 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136

deliver <5414 nathan > thee into the hand <3027 yad > [ of them

<3027 yad > [ of them ] from whom <0834 >aher > thy mind <5315
nephesh > is alienated <5361 naqa< > :

: 29 And they shall deal <6213 <asah > with thee hatefully
<8135 sin>ah > , and shall take <3947 laqach > away all <3605

be discovered <1540 galah > , both thy lewdness <2154 zimmah >
and thy whoredoms <8457 taznuwth > .

: 30 I will do <6213 <asah > these <0428 >el - leh > [ things
] unto thee , because thou hast gone a whoring <2181 zanah >
after <0310 >achar > the heathen <1471 gowy > , [ and ]
because thou art polluted <2930 tame> > with their idols <1544
gilluwl > .

: 31 Thou hast walked <1980 halak > in the way <1870 derek > of
thy sister <0269 >achowth > ; therefore will I give < 5414
nathan > her cup <3563 kowc > into thine hand <3027 yad > .

: 32 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136
>Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; Thou shalt drink < 8354 shathah

containeth <3557 kuwl > much <4767 mirbah > .

: 33 Thou shalt be filled <4390 male> > with drunkenness <7943
shikkarown > and sorrow <3015 yagown > , with the cup <3563
kowc > of astonishment <8047 shammah > and desolation <8077

: 34 Thou shalt even drink <8354 shathah > it and suck < 4680
matsah > [ it ] out , and thou shalt break <1633 garam > the
sherds <2789 cheres > thereof , and pluck <5423 nathaq > off
thine own breasts <7699 shad > : for I have spoken <1696 dabar >
[ it ] , saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 > Adonay > GOD
<3069 Y@hovih > .

: 35 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; Because <3282
ya<an > thou hast forgotten <7911 shakach > me , and cast <7998

therefore bear <5375 nasa> > thou also <1571 gam > thy lewdness
<2154 zimmah > and thy whoredoms <8457 taznuwth > .

: 36 . The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > moreover
unto me ; Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > , wilt thou
judge <8199 shaphat > Aholah <0170 >Oholah > and Aholibah <0172
>Oholiybah > ? yea , declare <5046 nagad > unto them their
abominations <8441 tow<ebah > ;

: 37 That they have committed <5003 na>aph > adultery <5003
na>aph > , and blood <1818 dam > [ is ] in their hands <3027
yad > , and with their idols <1544 gilluwl > have they
committed <5003 na>aph > adultery <5003 na>aph > , and have
also <1571 gam > caused their sons <1121 ben > , whom <0834
>aher > they bare <3205 yalad > unto me , to pass <5674 <abar >
for them through [ the fire ] , to devour <0402 >oklah > [
them ] .

: 38 Moreover <5750 <owd > this <2063 zo>th > they have done
<6213 <asah > unto me : they have defiled <2930 tame> > my
sanctuary <4720 miqdash > in the same <1931 huw> > day <3117
yowm > , and have profaned <2490 chalal > my sabbaths <7676
shabbath > .

: 39 For when they had slain <7819 shachat > their children
<1121 ben > to their idols <1544 gilluwl > , then they came
<0935 bow> > the same <1931 huw> > day <3117 yowm > into <0413
>el > my sanctuary <4720 miqdash > to profane < 2490 chalal > it ;
and , lo <2009 hinneh > , thus <3541 koh > have they done
<6213 <asah > in the midst <8432 tavek > of mine house <1004
bayith > .

: 40 And furthermore <0637 >aph > , that ye have sent <7971
shalach > for men <0582 >enowsh > to come <0935 bow> > from far
<4801 merchaq > , unto whom a messenger <4397 mal>ak > [ was ]
sent <7971 shalach > ; and , lo <2009 hinneh > , they came
<0935 bow> > : for whom <0834 >aher > thou didst wash <7364
rachats > thyself , paintedst <3583 kachal > thy eyes <5869
<ayin > , and deckedst <5710 <adah > thyself with ornaments
<5716 <adiy > ,

: 41 And satest <3427 yashab > upon a stately <3520 k@buwddah >
bed <4296 mittah > , and a table <7979 shulchan > prepared
<6186 <arak > before <6440 paniym > it , whereupon <5921 <al >
thou hast set <7760 suwm > mine incense <7004 q@toreth > and
mine oil <8081 shemen > .

: 42 And a voice <6963 qowl > of a multitude <1995 hamown >
being at ease <7961 shalev > [ was ] with her : and with the
men <0582 >enowsh > of the common <7230 rob > sort [ were ]
brought <0935 bow> > Sabeans <5433 caba> > from the wilderness
<4057 midbar > , which put <5414 nathan > bracelets <6781
tsamiyd > upon their hands <3027 yad > , and beautiful <8597
tiph>arah > crowns <5850 <atarah > upon their heads <7218 ro>sh

: 43 Then said <0559 >amar > I unto [ her that was ] old
<1087 baleh > in adulteries <5004 ni>uph > , Will they now
<6258 <attah > commit <2181 zanah > whoredoms < 8457 taznuwth >
with her , and she [ with them ] ?

: 44 Yet they went <0935 bow> > in unto her , as they go <0935
bow> > in unto a woman <0802 >ishshah > that playeth the harlot
<2181 zanah > : so <3651 ken > went <0935 bow> > they in unto
Aholah <0170 >Oholah > and unto Aholibah <0172 > Oholiybah > ,
the lewd <2154 zimmah > women <0802 >ishshah > .

: 45 And the righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > men <0582 > enowsh > ,
they shall judge <8199 shaphat > them after the manner < 4941
mishpat > of adulteresses <5003 na>aph > , and after the manner
<4941 mishpat > of women that shed <8210 shaphak > blood <1818
dam > ; because <3588 kiy > they [ are ] adulteresses <5003
na>aph > , and blood <1818 dam > [ is ] in their hands <3027
yad > .

: 46 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136
>Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; I will bring < 5927 <alah > up a
company <6951 qahal > upon them , and will give <5414 nathan >
them to be removed <2189 za<avah > and spoiled <0957 baz > .

: 47 And the company <6951 qahal > shall stone <7275 ragam >
them with stones <68> , and dispatch <1254 bara> > them with
their swords <2719 chereb > ; they shall slay <4191 muwth >
their sons <1121 ben > and their daughters <1121 ben > , and
burn <8313 saraph > up their houses <1004 bayith > with fire
<0784 >esh > .

: 48 Thus will I cause lewdness <2154 zimmah > to cease <7673
shabath > out of the land <0776 >erets > , that all <3605 kol >
women <0802 >ishshah > may be taught <3256 yacar > not to do
<6213 <asah > after <0310 >achar > your lewdness <2154 zimmah > .


: 49 And they shall recompense <5414 nathan > your lewdness
<2154 zimmah > upon you , and ye shall bear <5375 nasa> > the
sins <2399 chet> > of your idols <1544 gilluwl > : and ye shall
know <3045 yada< > that I [ am ] the Lord <0136 > Adonay > GOD
<3069 Y@hovih > .

the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came <1961

this <2088 zeh > same <6106 <etsem > day <3117 yowm > .

: 03 And utter <4911 mashal > a parable <4912 mashal > unto the
rebellious <4805 m@riy > house <1004 bayith > , and say <0559

Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; Set <8239 shaphath >
on a pot <5518 ciyr > , set <8239 shaphath > [ it ] on , and
also <1571 gam > pour <3332 yatsaq > water <4325 mayim > into it
:

: 04 Gather <0622 >acaph > the pieces <5409 nethach > thereof
into it , [ even ] every <3605 kol > good <2896 towb > piece
<5409 nethach > , the thigh <3409 yarek > , and the shoulder
<3802 katheph > ; fill <4390 male> > [ it ] with the choice
<4005 mibchar > bones <6106 <etsem > .

: 05 Take <3947 laqach > the choice <4005 mibchar > of the
flock <6629 tso>n > , and burn <1754 duwr > also <1571 gam >
the bones <6106 <etsem > under <8478 tachath > it , [ and ]
make it boil <7570 rathach > well <7571 rethach > , and let
them seethe <1310 bashal > the bones <6106 <etsem > of it
therein <8432 tavek > .

: 06 Wherefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; Woe <0188 >owy >
to the bloody <1818 dam > city <5892 <iyr > , to the pot <5518
ciyr > whose <0834 >aher > scum <2457 chel>ah > [ is ] therein
, and whose scum <2457 chel>ah > is not gone <3318 yatsa> > out

piece <5409 nethach > ; let no <3808 lo> > lot <1486 gowral >
fall <5307 naphal > upon it .

: 07 For her blood <1818 dam > is in the midst <8432 tavek > of
her ; she set <7760 suwm > it upon the top <6706 ts@chiyach >
of a rock <5553 cela< > ; she poured <8210 shaphak > it not
upon the ground <0776 >erets > , to cover <3680 kacah > it with
dust <6083 <aphar > ;

: 08 That it might cause fury <2534 chemah > to come < 5927
<alah > up to take vengeance <5359 naqam > ; I have set <5414
nathan > her blood <1818 dam > upon the top <6706 ts@chiyach >
of a rock <5553 cela< > , that it should not be covered <3680
kacah > .

: 09 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; Woe <0188 >owy >
to the bloody <1818 dam > city <5892 <iyr > ! I will even make

<1320 basar > , and spice <7543 raqach > it well , and let the
bones <6106 <etsem > be burned <2787 charar > .

: 11 Then set <5975 <amad > it empty <7385 riyq > upon the
coals <1513 gechel> thereof , that the brass <5178 n@chosheth >
of it may be hot <3179 yacham > , and may burn <2787 charar > ,
and [ that ] the filthiness <2932 tum>ah > of it may be
molten <5413 nathak > in it , [ that ] the scum <2457 chel>ah

: 12 She hath wearied <3811 la>ah > [ herself ] with lies
<8383 t@>un > , and her great <7227 rab > scum <2457 chel>ah >
went <3318 yatsa> > not forth <3318 yatsa> > out of her : her
scum <2457 chel>ah > [ shall be ] in the fire <0784 >esh > .

: 13 In thy filthiness <2932 tum>ah > [ is ] lewdness <2154

thee , and thou wast not purged <2891 taher > , thou shalt not

<2534 chemah > to rest <5117 nuwach > upon thee .

: 14 I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have spoken <1696 dabar > [ it
] : it shall come <0835 >esher > to pass , and I will do <6213
<asah > [ it ] ; I will not go <6544 para< > back <6544 para<

<3808 lo> > will I repent <5162 nacham > ; according to thy
ways <1870 derek > , and according to thy doings <5949 <aliylah

: 15 . Also the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >
came <1961 hayah > unto me , saying <0559 >amar > ,

: 16 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > , behold <2005 hen >
, I take <3947 laqach > away from thee the desire <4261 machmad

yet neither <3808 lo> > shalt thou mourn <5594 caphad > nor
<3808 lo> > weep <1058 bakah > , neither <3808 lo> > shall thy
tears <1832 dim<ah > run <0935 bow> > down .

: 17 Forbear <1826 damam > to cry <0602 >anaq > , make <6213
<asah > no <3808 lo> > mourning <60> for the dead <4191 muwth > ,
bind <2280 chabash > the tire <6287 p@>er > of thine head upon
thee , and put <7760 suwm > on thy shoes <5275 na<al > upon thy

<8222 sapham > , and eat <0398 >akal > not the bread <3899
lechem > of men <0582 >enowsh > .

: 18 So I spake <1696 dabar > unto the people <5971 < am > in
the morning <1242 boqer > : and at even <6153 <ereb > my wife
<0802 >ishshah > died <4191 muwth > ; and I did <6213 <asah >
in the morning <1242 boqer > as I was commanded <6680 tsavah > .

: 19 And the people <5971 <am > said <0559 >amar > unto me ,
Wilt thou not tell <5046 nagad > us what <4100 mah > these <0428

<asah > [ so ] ?

: 20 Then I answered <0559 >amar > them , The word < 1697 dabar

saying <0559 >amar > ,

: 21 Speak <0559 >amar > unto the house <1004 bayith > of
Israel <3478 Yisra>el > , Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; Behold <2005 hen

the excellency <1347 ga>own > of your strength < 5797 <oz > ,
the desire <4261 machmad > of your eyes <5869 <ayin > , and
that which your soul <5315 nephesh > pitieth <4263 machmal > ;
and your sons <1121 ben > and your daughters <1121 ben > whom
<0834 >aher > ye have left <5800 <azab > shall fall <5307 naphal

: 22 And ye shall do <6213 <asah > as I have done < 6213 <asah >
: ye shall not cover <5844 <atah > [ your ] lips < 8222 sapham

of men <0582 >enowsh > .

: 23 And your tires <6287 p@>er > [ shall be ] upon your
heads <7218 ro>sh > , and your shoes <5275 na<al > upon your
feet <7272 regel > : ye shall not mourn <5594 caphad > nor <3808
lo> > weep <1058 bakah > ; but ye shall pine < 4743 maqaq > away
for your iniquities <5771 <avon > , and mourn <5098 naham > one
<0376 >iysh > toward <0413 >el > another < 0250 >Ezrachiy > .

: 24 Thus Ezekiel <3168 Y@chezqe>l > is unto you a sign <4159
mowpheth > : according to all <3605 kol > that he hath done
<6213 <asah > shall ye do <6213 <asah > : and when this cometh

Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > .

: 25 Also , thou son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > , [
shall it ] not [ be ] in the day <3117 yowm > when I take
<3947 laqach > from them their strength <4581 ma<owz > , the
joy <4885 masows > of their glory <8597 tiph>arah > , the
desire <4261 machmad > of their eyes <5869 <ayin > , and that
whereupon they set <4853 massa> > their minds <5315 nephesh > ,
their sons <1121 ben > and their daughters <1121 ben > ,

: 26 [ That ] he that escapeth <6412 paliyt > in that day
<3117 yowm > shall come <0835 >esher > unto thee , to cause [
thee ] to hear <2045 hashma<uwth > [ it ] with [ thine ]

: 27 In that day <3117 yowm > shall thy mouth <6310 peh > be
opened <6605 pathach > to him which is escaped <6412 paliyt > ,
and thou shalt speak <1696 dabar > , and be no <3808 lo> > more
<5750 <owd > dumb <0481 >alam > : and thou shalt be a sign <4159

<1961 hayah > again unto me , saying <0559 >amar > ,

: 02 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > , set <7760 suwm >
thy face <6440 paniym > against <0413 >el > the Ammonites <5984

<3588 kiy > it was desolate <8074 shamem > ; and against <0413

<3588 kiy > they went into captivity <1473 gowlah > ;

: 04 Behold <2005 hen > , therefore <3651 ken > I will deliver
<5414 nathan > thee to the men <1121 ben > of the east <6924

shall eat <0398 >akal > thy fruit <6529 p@riy > , and they
shall drink <8354 shathah > thy milk <2461 chalab > .

: 05 And I will make <5414 nathan > Rabbah <7237 Rabbah > a
stable <5116 naveh > for camels <1581 gamal > , and the
Ammonites <5984 <Ammowniy > a couchingplace <4769 marbets > for
flocks <6629 tso>n > : and ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I [

: 06 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136
>Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; Because <3282 ya<an > thou hast
clapped <4222 macha> > [ thine ] hands <3027 yad > , and
stamped <7554 raqa< > with the feet <7272 regel > , and
rejoiced <8055 samach > in heart <5315 nephesh > with all <3605

: 07 Behold <2005 hen > , therefore <3651 ken > I will stretch
<5186 natah > out mine hand <3027 yad > upon thee , and will
deliver <5414 nathan > thee for a spoil <0957 baz > to the

shamad > thee ; and thou shalt know <3045 yada< > that I [ am

: 08 . Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136

Behold <2009 hinneh > , the house <1004 bayith > of Judah <3063

: 01 . And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the eleventh year
<8141 shaneh > , in the first <0259 >echad > [ day ] of the
month <2320 chodesh > , [ that ] the word <1697 dabar > of
the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came <1961 hayah > unto me , saying
<0559 >amar > ,

: 02 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > , because <3282
ya<an > that Tyrus <6865 Tsor > hath said <0559 >amar > against
<5921 <al > Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > , Aha <0253 >ach > ,
she is broken <7665 shabar > [ that was ] the gates < 1817
deleth > of the people <5971 <am > : she is turned <5437 cabab >
unto me : I shall be replenished <4390 male> > , [ now ] she
is laid waste <2717 charab > :

: 03 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; Behold <2005 hen

, and will cause many <7227 rab > nations <1471 gowy > to come
<5927 <alah > up against <5921 <al > thee , as the sea <3220

: 04 And they shall destroy <7843 shachath > the walls < 2346
chowmah > of Tyrus <6865 Tsor > , and break <2040 harac > down
<2040 harac > her towers <4026 migdal > : I will also scrape
<5500 cachah > her dust <6083 <aphar > from her , and make
<5414 nathan > her like the top <6706 ts@chiyach > of a rock
<5553 cela< > .

: 05 It shall be [ a place for ] the spreading <4894
mishtowach > of nets <2764 cherem > in the midst < 8432 tavek >
of the sea <3220 yam > : for I have spoken <1696 dabar > [ it ]
, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069
Y@hovih > : and it shall become <1961 hayah > a spoil <0957 baz

in the field <7704 sadeh > shall be slain <2026 harag > by the
sword <2719 chereb > ; and they shall know <3045 yada< > that I
[ am ] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

: 07 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136
>Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; Behold <2005 hen > , I will
bring <0935 bow> > upon Tyrus <6865 Tsor > Nebuchadrezzar <5019
N@buwkadne>tstsar > king <4428 melek > of Babylon < 0894 Babel > ,
a king <4428 melek > of kings <4428 melek > , from the north

chariots <7393 rekeb > , and with horsemen <6571 parash > ,
and companies <6951 qahal > , and much <7227 rab > people <5971

: 08 He shall slay <4191 muwth > with the sword <2719 chereb >
thy daughters <1121 ben > in the field <7704 sadeh > : and he
shall make <5414 nathan > a fort <1785 dayeq > against <5921 <al

against <5921 <al > thee , and lift <6965 quwm > up the buckler
<6793 tsinnah > against <5921 <al > thee .

: 09 And he shall set <5414 nathan > engines <4239 m@chiy > of
war <6904 qobel > against thy walls <2346 chowmah > , and with
his axes <2719 chereb > he shall break <5422 nathats > down
<5422 nathats > thy towers <4026 migdal > .

: 10 By reason of the abundance <8229 shiph<ah > of his horses
<5483 cuwc > their dust <80> shall cover <3680 kacah > thee :
thy walls <2346 chowmah > shall shake <7493 ra<ash > at the
noise <6963 qowl > of the horsemen <6571 parash > , and of the
wheels <1534 galgal > , and of the chariots <7393 rekeb > ,
when he shall enter <0935 bow> > into thy gates <8179 sha<ar > ,
as men enter <0935 bow> > into a city <5892 <iyr > wherein is
made a breach <1234 baqa< > .

: 11 With the hoofs <6541 parcah > of his horses <5483 cuwc >
shall he tread <7429 ramac > down all <3605 kol > thy streets
<2351 chuwts > : he shall slay <4191 muwth > thy people <5971

garrisons <4676 matstsebah > shall go <3381 yarad > down <3381
yarad > to the ground <0776 >erets > .

: 12 And they shall make <5414 nathan > a spoil <7997 shalal >
of thy riches <2428 chayil > , and make a prey <0962 bazaz > of
thy merchandise <7404 r@kullah > : and they shall break < 2040
harac > down <2040 harac > thy walls <2346 chowmah > , and
destroy <5422 nathats > thy pleasant <2532 chemdah > houses
<1004 bayith > : and they shall lay <7760 suwm > thy stones <68>
and thy timber <6086 <ets > and thy dust <6083 < aphar > in the
midst <8432 tavek > of the water <4325 mayim > .

: 13 And I will cause the noise <1995 hamown > of thy songs
<7892 shiyr > to cease <7673 shabath > ; and the sound <6963
qowl > of thy harps <3658 kinnowr > shall be no <3808 lo> > more
<5750 <owd > heard <8085 shama< > .

: 14 And I will make thee like the top <6706 ts@chiyach > of a
rock <5558 celeph > : thou shalt be [ a place ] to spread
<4894 mishtowach > nets <2764 cherem > upon ; thou shalt be
built <1129 banah > no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > : for I the
LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have spoken <1696 dabar > [ it ] , saith
<5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD < 3069 Y@hovih > .

: 15 . Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136
>Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > to Tyrus <6865 Tsor > ; Shall not
the isles <0339 >iy > shake <7493 ra<ash > at the sound <6963
qowl > of thy fall <4658 mappeleth > , when the wounded <2491
chalal > cry <0602 >anaq > , when the slaughter < 2027 hereg >
is made in the midst <8432 tavek > of thee ?

: 16 Then all <3605 kol > the princes <5387 nasiy> > of the sea
<3220 yam > shall come <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad > from
their thrones <3678 kicce> > , and lay <5493 cuwr > away <5493
cuwr > their robes <4598 m@<iyl > , and put <6584 pashat > off
their broidered <7553 riqmah > garments <0899 beged > : they
shall clothe <3847 labash > themselves with trembling < 2731
charadah > ; they shall sit <3427 yashab > upon the ground
<0776 >erets > , and shall tremble <2729 charad > at [ every ]
moment <7281 rega< > , and be astonished <8074 shamem > at
thee .

: 17 And they shall take <5375 nasa> > up a lamentation <7015
qiynah > for thee , and say <0559 >amar > to thee , How <0349

yashab > of seafaring <3220 yam > men , the renowned <1984
halal > city <5892 <iyr > , which <0834 >aher > wast strong
<2389 chazaq > in the sea <3220 yam > , she and her inhabitants
<3427 yashab > , which <0834 >aher > cause < 5414 nathan > their
terror <2851 chittiyth > [ to be ] on all <3605 kol > that
haunt <3427 yashab > it !

: 18 Now <6258 <attah > shall the isles <0339 >iy > tremble
<2729 charad > in the day <3117 yowm > of thy fall <4658
mappeleth > ; yea , the isles <0339 >iy > that [ are ] in
the sea <3220 yam > shall be troubled <0926 bahal > at thy
departure <3318 yatsa> > .

: 19 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136
>Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ; When I shall make <5414 nathan

cities <5892 <iyr > that are not inhabited <3427 yashab > ;
when I shall bring <5927 <alah > up the deep <8415 t@howm > upon
thee , and great <7227 rab > waters <4325 mayim > shall cover
<3680 kacah > thee ;
