Ezekiel 1





1. 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 >.



2 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 >,



3 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.



4. 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 >.



5 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 >.



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



7 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 >.



8 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 >.



9 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



1. 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.



2 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.



3 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 >.



4 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 >.



5 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.



6. 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.



7 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 >.



8 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.



9 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



1. 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 >.



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



3 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
>.



4 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.



5 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 >;



6 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.



7 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.



8 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 >.



9 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 > unto me,
saying <0559 >amar >,



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<

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< >
[man] shall die <4191 muwth > in his iniquity <5771 < avon >; but
his blood <1818 dam > will I require <1245 baqash > at 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

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 >, he shall die <4191 muwth >
in his sin <2403 chatta>ah >, 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

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> > into
<0413 >el > the plain <1237 biq<ah >, and I will there <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

house <1004 bayith >.



25 But thou, O son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, behold
<2009 hinneh >, they shall put <5414 nathan > bands <5688 <aboth

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

27 But when I speak <1696 dabar > with thee, I will open <6605
pathach > thy mouth <6310 peh >, and thou shalt say < 0559 >amar

>Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; He that heareth < 8085 shama< >,
let him hear <8085 shama< >; and he that forbeareth < 2310 chadel

<4805 m@riy > house <1004 bayith >.



Ezekiel 4



1. Thou also, son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > , take <3947
laqach > thee a tile <3843 l@benah >, and lay <5414 nathan > it
before <6440 paniym > thee, and pourtray <2710 chaqaq > upon it
the city <5892 <iyr >, [even <0853 >eth >] Jerusalem <3389
Y@ruwshalaim >:



2 And lay <5414 nathan > siege <4692 matsowr > against <5921

3 Moreover take <3947 laqach > thou unto thee an iron < 1270

4 Lie <7901 shakab > thou also upon thy left <8042 s@ma>liy >
side <6654 tsad >, and lay <7760 suwm > the iniquity <5771 <avon

5 For I have laid <5414 nathan > upon thee the years < 8141

number <4557 micpar > of the days <3117 yowm >, three <7969

6 And when thou hast accomplished <3615 kalah > them, lie <7901
shakab > again <8145 sheniy > on <5921 <al > thy right <6227

the iniquity <5771 <avon > of the house <1004 bayith > of Judah
<3063 Y@huwdah > forty <0705 >arba<iym > days <3117 yowm >: I
have appointed <5414 nathan > thee each day <3117 yowm > for a

7 Therefore thou shalt set <3559 kuwn > thy face <6440 paniym >
toward <0413 >el > the siege <4692 matsowr > of Jerusalem <3389
Y@ruwshalaim >, and thine arm <2220 z@rowa< > [shall be]
uncovered <2834 chasaph >, and thou shalt prophesy <5012 naba> >
against <5921 <al > it.



8 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, I will lay bands <5688 <aboth >
upon thee, and thou shalt not turn <2015 haphak > thee from one
side <6654 tsad > to another, till <5704 <ad > thou hast ended
<3615 kalah > the days <3117 yowm > of thy siege < 4692 matsowr >.



9. Take <3947 laqach > thou also unto thee wheat <2406 chittah

lentiles <5742 <adash >, and millet <1764 dochan >, and fitches

eat <0398 >akal > thereof.



10 And thy meat <3978 ma>akal > which <0834 >aher > thou shalt
eat <0398 >akal > [shall be] by weight <4946 mishqowl >, twenty
<6242 <esriym > shekels <8255 sheqel > a day < 3117 yowm >: from
time <6256 <eth > to time <6256 <eth > shalt thou eat <0398

11 Thou shalt drink <8354 shathah > also water <4325 mayim > by

hin <1969 hiyn >: from time <6256 <eth > to time <6256 <eth >
shalt thou drink <8354 shathah >.





12 And thou shalt eat <0398 >akal > it [as] barley < 8184
s@<orah > cakes <5692 <uggah >, and thou shalt bake <5746 <uwg >
it with dung <1561 gelel > that cometh <6627 tsa>ah > out of man
<0120 >adam >, in their sight <5869 <ayin >.



13 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > , Even <3602
kakah > thus <3602 kakah > shall the children <1121 ben > of
Israel <3478 Yisra>el > eat <0398 >akal > their defiled <2931

whither I will drive <5080 nadach > them.



14 Then said <0559 >amar > I, Ah <0162 >ahahh > Lord <0136

neither <3808 lo> > came <0935 bow> > there abominable <6292

15 Then he said <0559 >amar > unto me, Lo <7200 ra>ah >, I have
given <5414 nathan > thee cow's <1241 baqar > dung <6832
ts@phuwa< > for man's <0120 >adam > dung <1561 gelel >, and thou
shalt prepare <6213 <asah > thy bread <3899 lechem > therewith
<5921 <al >.



16 Moreover he said <0559 >amar > unto me, Son <1121 ben > of
man <0120 >adam >, behold <2005 hen >, I will break <7665 shabar

17 That they may want <2637 chacer > bread <3899 lechem > and
water <4325 mayim >, and be astonied <8074 shamem > one <0376

Ezekiel 5



1. And thou, son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, take <3947
laqach > thee a sharp <2299 chad > knife <2719 chereb >, take
<3947 laqach > thee a barber's <1532 gallab > razor <8593 ta<ar

divide <2505 chalaq > the [hair].



2 Thou shalt burn <1197 ba<ar > with fire <0217 > uwr > a third

<5892 <iyr >, when the days <3117 yowm > of the siege <4692

laqach > a third <7992 sh@liyshiy > part, [and] smite <5221
nakah > about <5439 cabiyb > it with a knife <2719 chereb >: and
a third <7992 sh@liyshiy > part thou shalt scatter <2219 zarah >
in the wind <7307 ruwach >; and I will draw <7324 ruwq > out a
sword <2719 chereb > after <0310 >achar > them.



3 Thou shalt also take <3947 laqach > thereof a few < 4592 m@<at

4 Then take <3947 laqach > of them again <5750 <owd >, and cast
<7993 shalak > them into <0413 >el > the midst < 8432 tavek > of
the fire <0784 >esh >, and burn <8313 saraph > them in the fire

the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > .



5. Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay

Y@ruwshalaim >: I have set <7760 suwm > it in the midst <8432

[that are] round <5439 cabiyb > about her.



6 And she hath changed <4171 muwr > my judgments <4941 mishpat

min > the nations <1471 gowy >, and my statutes <2708 chuqqah >
more <4480 min > than <4480 min > the countries < 0776 >erets >
that [are] round <5439 cabiyb > about her: for they have refused
<3988 ma>ac > my judgments <4941 mishpat > and my statutes <2708
chuqqah >, they have not walked <1980 halak > in them.



7 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith < 0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Because <3282
ya<an > ye multiplied <1995 hamown > more <4480 min > than <4480
min > the nations <1471 gowy > that [are] round <5439 cabiyb >
about you, [and] have not walked <1980 halak > in my statutes
<2708 chuqqah >, neither <3808 lo> > have kept < 6213 <asah > my
judgments <4941 mishpat >, neither <3808 lo> > have done <6213
<asah > according to the judgments <4941 mishpat > of the
nations <1471 gowy > that [are] round <5439 cabiyb > about you;



8 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith < 0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Behold <2005 hen >,
I, even <1571 gam > I, [am] against <5921 <al > thee, and will
execute <6213 <asah > judgments <4941 mishpat > in the midst
<8432 tavek > of thee in the sight <5869 <ayin > of the nations
<1471 gowy >.



9 And I will do <6213 <asah > in thee that which < 0834 >aher >
I have not done <6213 <asah >, and whereunto <0834 >aher > I
will not do <6213 <asah > any more <5750 <owd > the like <3644
k@mow >, because <3282 ya<an > of all <3605 kol > thine
abominations <8441 tow<ebah >.



10 Therefore <3651 ken > the fathers <1> shall eat <0398 >akal

the sons <1121 ben > shall eat <0398 >akal > their fathers <1>;
and I will execute <6213 <asah > judgments <8201 shephet > in
thee, and the whole <3605 kol > remnant <7611 sh@> eriyth > of
thee will I scatter <2219 zarah > into all <3605 kol > the winds
<7307 ruwach >.



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> > my
sanctuary <4720 miqdash > with all <3605 kol > thy detestable
<8251 shiqquwts > things, and with all <3605 kol > thine
abominations <8441 tow<ebah >, therefore will I also < 1571 gam >
diminish <1639 gara< > [thee]; neither <1571 gam > shall mine
eye <5869 <ayin > spare <2347 chuwc >, 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 <8432
tavek > of thee: and a third <7992 sh@liyshiy > part shall fall
<5307 naphal > by the sword <2719 chereb > round < 5439 cabiyb >
about thee; and I will scatter <2219 zarah > a third < 7992
sh@liyshiy > part into all <3605 kol > the winds < 7307 ruwach >,
and I will draw <7324 ruwq > out a sword <2719 chereb > after
<0310 >achar > them.



13 Thus shall mine anger <0639 >aph > be accomplished <3615
kalah >, and I will cause my fury <2534 chemah > to rest <5117
nuwach > upon them, and I will be comforted <5162 nacham >: and
they shall know <3045 yada< > that I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >
have spoken <1696 dabar > [it] in my zeal <7068 qin> ah >, when I
have accomplished <3615 kalah > my fury <2534 chemah > in them.



14 Moreover I will make <5414 nathan > thee waste <2723 chorbah

that [are] round <5439 cabiyb > about thee, in the sight <5869
<ayin > of all <3605 kol > that pass <5674 < abar > by.



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 [are] round
<5439 cabiyb > about thee, when I shall execute <6213 <asah >
judgments <8201 shephet > in thee in anger <0639 >aph > and in
fury <2534 chemah > and in furious <2534 chemah > rebukes <8433
towkechah >. I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have spoken < 1696 dabar

16 When I shall send <7971 shalach > upon them the evil <7451
ra< > arrows <2671 chets > of famine <7458 ra< ab >, which <0834
>aher > shall be for [their] destruction <4889 mashchiyth >,
[and] which <0834 >aher > I will send <7971 shalach > to destroy
<7843 shachath > you: and I will increase <3254 yacaph > the
famine <7458 ra<ab > upon you, and will break <7665 shabar >
your staff <4294 matteh > of bread <3899 lechem >:



17 So will I send <7971 shalach > upon you famine <7458 ra<ab >
and evil <7451 ra< > beasts <2416 chay >, and they shall bereave
<7921 shakol > thee; and pestilence <1698 deber > and blood
<1818 dam > shall pass <5674 <abar > through thee; and I will
bring <0935 bow> > the sword <2719 chereb > upon thee. I the
LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have spoken <1696 dabar > [it].



Ezekiel 6



1. And the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came

2 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, set < 7760 suwm > thy

Behold <2005 hen >, I, [even] I, will bring <0935 bow> > a sword

4 And your altars <4196 mizbeach > shall be desolate < 8074

your slain <2491 chalal > [men] before <6440 paniym > your idols
<1544 gilluwl >.



5 And I will lay <5414 nathan > the dead carcases <6297 peger >
of the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > before
<6440 paniym > their idols <1544 gilluwl >; and I will scatter

about your altars <4196 mizbeach >.



6 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 charab >
and made desolate <0816 >asham >, and your idols < 1544 gilluwl >
may be broken <7665 shabar > and cease <7673 shabath > , and your
images <2553 chamman > may be cut <1438 gada< > down <1438 gada<

7 And the slain <2491 chalal > shall fall <5307 naphal > in the
midst <8432 tavek > of you, and ye shall know <3045 yada< > that
I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.



8. Yet will I leave <3498 yathar > a remnant <3498 yathar >,
that ye may have <1961 hayah > [some] that shall escape < 6412
paliyt > the sword <2719 chereb > among the nations < 1471 gowy >,
when ye shall be scattered <2219 zarah > through the countries
<0776 >erets >.



9 And they that escape <6412 paliyt > of you shall remember
<2142 zakar > me among the nations <1471 gowy > whither they
shall be carried <7617 shabah > captives <7617 shabah >, because
<0834 >aher > I am broken <7665 shabar > with their whorish
<2181 zanah > heart <3820 leb >, which <0834 > aher > hath
departed <5493 cuwr > from me, and with their eyes <5869 <ayin >,
which go a whoring <2181 zanah > after <0310 >achar > their
idols <1544 gilluwl >: and they shall lothe <6962 quwt >
themselves <6440 paniym > for the evils <7451 ra< > which <0834
>aher > they have committed <6213 <asah > in all <3605 kol >
their abominations <8441 tow<ebah >.



10 And they shall know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068
Y@hovah >, [and that] I have not said <1696 dabar > in vain
<2600 chinnam > that I would do <6213 <asah > this <2063 zo>th >
evil <7451 ra< > unto them.



11. Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay
> GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Smite <5221 nakah > with thine hand <3709
kaph >, and stamp <7554 raqa< > with thy foot < 7272 regel >, and
say <0559 >amar >, Alas <0253 >ach > for all <3605 kol > the
evil <7451 ra< > abominations <8441 tow<ebah > of the house
<1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >! for 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
qarowb > shall fall <5307 naphal > by the sword <2719 chereb >;
and he that remaineth <7604 sha>ar > and is besieged < 5341
natsar > shall die <4191 muwth > by the famine <7458 ra<ab >:
thus will I accomplish <3615 kalah > my fury <2534 chemah > upon
them.



13 Then shall ye know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068
Y@hovah >, when their slain <2491 chalal > [men] shall be among
<8432 tavek > their idols <1544 gilluwl > round < 5439 cabiyb >
about their altars <4196 mizbeach >, upon every <3605 kol > high
<7311 ruwm > hill <1389 gib<ah >, in all <3605 kol > the tops
<7218 ro>sh > of the mountains <2022 har >, and under <8478
tachath > every <3605 kol > green <7488 ra<anan > tree <6086

<aboth > oak <0424 >elah >, the place <4725 maqowm > where they
did offer <5414 nathan > sweet <5207 nichowach > savour <7381
reyach > to all <3605 kol > their idols <1544 gilluwl >.



14 So will I stretch <5186 natah > out my hand <3027 yad > upon
them, and make <5414 nathan > the land <0776 >erets > desolate
<8077 sh@mamah >, yea, more desolate <8047 shammah > than the
wilderness <4057 midbar > toward Diblath <1689 Diblah >, in all
<3605 kol > their habitations <4186 mowshab >: and they shall
know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.



Ezekiel 7



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



2 Also, thou son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, thus <3541
koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 > Adonay > GOD <3069
Y@hovih > unto the land <0127 >adamah > of Israel < 3478 Yisra>el

land <0776 >erets >.



3 Now <6258 <attah > [is] the end <7093 qets > [come] upon thee,
and I will send <7971 shalach > mine anger <0639 > aph > upon
thee, and will judge <8199 shaphat > thee according to thy ways
<1870 derek >, and will recompense <5414 nathan > upon thee all
<3605 kol > thine abominations <8441 tow<ebah >.



4 And mine eye <5869 <ayin > shall not spare <2347 chuwc > thee,
neither <3808 lo> > will I have pity <2550 chamal >: but I will
recompense <5414 nathan > thy ways <1870 derek > upon thee, and
thine abominations <8441 tow<ebah > shall be in the midst <8432
tavek > of thee: and ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the
LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.



5 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay >
GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; An evil <7451 ra< >, an only <0259 >echad >
evil <7451 ra< >, behold <2009 hinneh >, is come <0935 bow> >.



6 An end <7093 qets > is come <0935 bow> >, the end <7093 qets

behold <2009 hinneh >, it is come <0935 bow> >.



7 The morning <6843 ts@phiyrah > is come <0935 bow> > unto thee,
O thou that dwellest <3427 yashab > in the land <0776 >erets >:
the time <6256 <eth > is come <0935 bow> >, the day <3117 yowm >
of trouble <4103 m@huwmah > [is] near <7138 qarowb >, and not
the sounding <1906 hed > again <1906 hed > of the mountains
<2022 har >.



8 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 I will
judge <8199 shaphat > thee according to thy ways <1870 derek >,
and will recompense <5414 nathan > thee for all <3605 kol >
thine abominations <8441 tow<ebah >.



9 And mine eye <5869 <ayin > shall not spare <2347 chuwc >,
neither <3808 lo> > will I have pity <2550 chamal > : I will
recompense <5414 nathan > thee according to thy ways < 1870 derek

midst <8432 tavek > of thee; and ye shall know <3045 yada< >
that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > that smiteth <5221 nakah >.



10 Behold <2009 hinneh > the day <3117 yowm >, behold <2009
hinneh >, it is come <0935 bow> >: the morning < 6843 ts@phiyrah

matteh > hath blossomed <6692 tsuwts >, pride <2087 zadown >
hath budded <6524 parach >.



11 Violence <2555 chamac > is risen <6965 quwm > up into a rod
<4294 matteh > of wickedness <7562 resha< >: none <3808 lo> > of
them [shall remain], nor <3808 lo> > of their multitude <1995

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

13 For the seller <4376 makar > shall not return <7725 shuwb >
to that which is sold <4465 mimkar >, although they were yet
<5750 <owd > alive <2416 chay >: for the vision <2377 chazown >
[is] touching <0413 >el > the whole <3605 kol > multitude <1995

neither <3808 lo> > shall any <0376 >iysh > strengthen <2388
chazaq > himself in the iniquity <5771 <avon > of his life <2416

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 >: for
my wrath <2740 charown > [is] upon all <3605 kol > the multitude
<1995 hamown > thereof.



15 The sword <2719 chereb > [is] without <2351 chuwts >, and
the pestilence <1698 deber > and the famine <7458 ra< ab > within
<1004 bayith >: he that [is] in the field <7704 sadeh > shall
die <4191 muwth > with the sword <2719 chereb >; 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 <2022
har > like doves <3123 yownah > of the valleys <1516 gay> >, all
<3605 kol > of them mourning <1993 hamah >, every < 0376 >iysh >
one <0376 >iysh > for his iniquity <5771 <avon > .



17 All <3605 kol > hands <3027 yad > shall be feeble <7503
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 be]
upon all <3605 kol > faces <6440 paniym >, and baldness <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
<5678 <ebrah > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >: they shall not
satisfy <7646 saba< > their souls <5315 nephesh >, neither <3808
lo> > fill <4390 male> > their bowels <4578 me<ah >: 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

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 >
of the strangers <2114 zuwr > for a prey <0957 baz >, and to the
wicked <7563 rasha< > of the earth <0776 >erets > for a spoil
<7998 shalal >; and they shall pollute <2490 chalal > it.



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

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 >; and
their holy <6942 qadash > places shall be defiled <2490 chalal >.



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 <5971
<am > of the land <0776 >erets > shall be troubled <0926 bahal >:
I will do <6213 <asah > unto them after their way < 1870 derek >,
and according to their deserts <4941 mishpat > will I judge
<8199 shaphat > them; and they shall know <3045 yada< > that I
[am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.



Ezekiel 8



1. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the sixth <8345
shishshiy > year <8141 shaneh >, in the sixth <8345 shishshiy >
[month], in the fifth <2568 chamesh > [day] of the month <2320
chodesh >, [as] I sat <3427 yashab > in mine house < 1004 bayith

<3427 yashab > before <6440 paniym > me, that the hand <3027 yad
> of the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > fell <5307
naphal > there <8033 sham > upon me.



2 Then I beheld <7200 ra>ah >, and lo <2009 hinneh > a likeness
<1823 d@muwth > as the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of fire <0784

mothen > even downward <4295 mattah >, fire <0784 > esh >; and
from his loins <4975 mothen > even upward <4605 ma<al >, as the
appearance <4758 mar>eh > of brightness <2096 zohar >, as the
colour <5869 <ayin > of amber <2830 chashmal >.



3 And he put <7971 shalach > forth <7971 shalach > the form
<8403 tabniyth > of an hand <3027 yad >, and took < 3947 laqach >
me by a lock <6734 tsiytsith > of mine head <7218 ro> sh >; and
the spirit <7307 ruwach > lifted <5375 nasa> > me up between
<0996 beyn > the earth <0776 >erets > and the heaven <8064
shamayim >, and brought <0935 bow> > me in the visions <4759
mar>ah > of God <0430 >elohiym > to Jerusalem < 3389 Y@ruwshalaim

gate <8179 sha<ar > that looketh <6437 panah > toward the north
<6828 tsaphown >; where [was] the seat <4186 mowshab > of the
image <5566 cemel > of jealousy <7069 qanah >, which provoketh
to jealousy <7069 qanah >.



4 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 >.



5 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 >
image <5566 cemel > of jealousy <7068 qin>ah > in the entry
<0872 b@>ah >.



6 He said <0559 >amar > furthermore unto me, Son < 1121 ben > of
man <0120 >adam >, seest <7200 ra>ah > thou what <4100 mah >
they do <6213 <asah >? [even] the great <1419 gadowl >
abominations <8441 tow<ebah > that the house <1004 bayith > of
Israel <3478 Yisra>el > committeth <6213 <asah > here <6311 poh

my sanctuary <4720 miqdash >? but turn <7725 shuwb > thee yet
<5750 <owd > again <5750 <owd >, [and] thou shalt see <7200
ra>ah > greater <1419 gadowl > abominations <8441 tow<ebah >.



7. And he brought <0935 bow> > me to the door <6607 pethach >
of the court <2691 chatser >; and when I looked <7200 ra>ah >,
behold <2009 hinneh > a hole <2356 chowr > in the wall <7023
qiyr >.



8 Then said <0559 >amar > he unto me, Son <1121 ben > of man
<0120 >adam >, dig <2864 chathar > now <4994 na> > in the wall
<7023 qiyr >: and when I had digged <2864 chathar > in the wall
<7023 qiyr >, behold <2009 hinneh > a door <6607 pethach >.



9 And he said <0559 >amar > unto me, Go <0935 bow> > in, and
behold <7200 ra>ah > the wicked <7451 ra< > abominations <8441
tow<ebah > that they do <6213 <asah > here < 6311 poh >.



10 So I went <0935 bow> > in and saw <7200 ra>ah >; and behold
<2009 hinneh > every <3605 kol > form <8403 tabniyth > of
creeping <7431 remes > things, and abominable <8263 sheqets >
beasts <0929 b@hemah >, and all <3605 kol > the idols <1544

pourtrayed <2707 chaqah > upon the wall <7023 qiyr > round
<5439 cabiyb > about.



11 And there stood <5975 <amad > before <6440 paniym > them
seventy <7657 shib<iym. > men <0376 >iysh > of the ancients
<2204 zaqen > of the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478
Yisra>el >, and in the midst <8432 tavek > of them stood <5975
<amad > Jaazaniah <2970 Ya>azanyah > the son < 1121 ben > of
Shaphan <8227 shaphan >, with every man <0376 >iysh > his censer
<4730 miqtereth > in his hand <3027 yad >; and a thick <6282
<athar > cloud <6051 <anan > of incense <7004 q@toreth > went
<5927 <alah > up.



12 Then said <0559 >amar > he unto me, Son <1121 ben > of man
<0120 >adam >, hast thou seen <7200 ra>ah > what <0834 >aher >
the ancients <2204 zaqen > of the house <1004 bayith > of Israel
<3478 Yisra>el > do <6213 <asah > in the dark <2822 choshek >,
every man <0376 >iysh > in the chambers <2315 cheder > of his
imagery <4906 maskiyth >? for they say <0559 >amar >, The LORD
<3068 Y@hovah > seeth <7200 ra>ah > us not; the LORD <3068
Y@hovah > hath forsaken <5800 <azab > the earth < 0776 >erets >.



13. He said <0559 >amar > also unto me, Turn <7725 shuwb > thee
yet <5750 <owd > again <5750 <owd >, [and] thou shalt see <7200
ra>ah > greater <1419 gadowl > abominations <8441 tow<ebah >
that they do <6213 <asah >.



14 Then he brought <0935 bow> > me to the door <6607 pethach >
of the gate <8179 sha<ar > of the LORD'S <3068 Y@hovah > house
<1004 bayith > which <0834 >aher > [was] toward <5921 <al > the

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



15 Then said <0559 >amar > he unto me, Hast thou seen <7200
ra>ah > [this], O son <1121 ben > of man <0120 > adam >? 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
<6442 p@niymiy > court <2691 chatser > of the LORD'S <3068
Y@hovah > house <1004 bayith >, and, behold <2009 hinneh >, at
the door <6607 pethach > of the temple <1964 heykal > of the
LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, between <0996 beyn > the porch <0197
>uwlam > and the altar <4196 mizbeach >, [were] about five <2568
chamesh > and twenty <6242 <esriym > men <0376 > iysh >, with
their backs <0268 >achowr > toward <0413 >el > the temple <1964
heykal > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, and their faces <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
ra>ah > [this], O son <1121 ben > of man <0120 > adam >? 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 male> > the land
<0776 >erets > with violence <2555 chamac >, and have returned
<7725 shuwb > to provoke me to anger <3707 ka<ac >: and, lo
<2009 hinneh >, they put <7971 shalach > 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 <2347
chuwc >, neither <3808 lo> > will I have pity < 2550 chamal >:
and though they cry <7121 qara> > in mine ears <0241 >ozen >
with a loud <1419 gadowl > voice <6963 qowl >, [yet] will I not
hear <8085 shama< > them.



Ezekiel 9



1. He cried <7121 qara> > also in mine ears <0241 >ozen > with
a loud <1419 gadowl > voice <6963 qowl >, saying < 0559 >amar >,
Cause them that have charge <6486 p@quddah > over the city <5892
<iyr > to draw near <7126 qarab >, even every man < 0376 >iysh >
[with] his destroying <4892 mashcheth > weapon <3627 k@liy > in
his hand <3027 yad >.



2 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, six <8337 shesh > men <0582
>enowsh > came <0935 bow> > from the way <1870 derek > of the
higher <5945 >elyown > gate <8179 sha<ar >, which <0834 >aher >
lieth toward the north <6828 tsaphown >, and every man < 0376
>iysh > a slaughter <4660 mappats > weapon <3627 k@liy > in his
hand <3027 yad >; and one <0259 >echad > man < 0376 >iysh > among
<8432 tavek > them [was] clothed <3847 labash > with linen <0906
bad >, with a writer's <5608 caphar > inkhorn <7083 qeceth > by
his side <4975 mothen >: and they went <0935 bow> > in, and
stood <5975 <amad > beside <0681 >etsel > the brasen <5178
n@chosheth > altar <4196 mizbeach >.



3 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>

<0906 bad >, which <0834 >aher > [had] the writer's <5608 caphar

4 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
>enowsh > that sigh <0584 >anach > and that cry <0602 >anaq >
for all <3605 kol > the abominations <8441 tow<ebah > that be
done <6213 <asah > in the midst <8432 tavek > thereof.



5. And to the others <0428 >el-leh > he said <0559 >amar > in
mine hearing <0241 >ozen >, Go <5674 <abar > ye after <0310
>achar > him through the city <5892 <iyr >, and smite <5221
nakah >: let not your eye <5869 <ayin > spare < 2347 chuwc >,
neither <0408 >al > have ye pity <2550 chamal >:



6 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 > ishshah >: but
come <5066 nagash > not near <5066 nagash > any < 3605 kol > man
<0376 >iysh > upon whom <0834 >aher > [is] 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 >.



7 And he said <0559 >amar > unto them, Defile <2930 tame> > the
house <1004 bayith >, and fill <4390 male> > the courts <2691
chatser > with the slain <2491 chalal >: go <3318 yatsa> > ye
forth <3318 yatsa> >. And they went <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318
yatsa> >, and slew <5221 nakah > in the city <5892 <iyr >.



8 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 > Lord <0136
>Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >! wilt thou destroy < 7843 shachath

Yisra>el > in thy pouring <8210 shaphak > out of thy fury <2534
chemah > upon Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >?



9 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 > their way
<1870 derek > upon their head <7218 ro>sh >.



11 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, the man <0376 >iysh > clothed
<3847 labash > with linen <0906 bad >, which <0834 >aher > [had]
the inkhorn <7083 qeceth > by his side <4975 mothen >, reported
<7725 shuwb > the matter <1697 dabar >, saying < 0559 >amar >, I
have done <6213 <asah > as thou hast commanded <6680 tsavah > me.



Ezekiel 10



1. 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 > there
appeared <7200 ra>ah > over <5921 <al > them as it were a
sapphire <5601 cappiyr > stone <68>, as the appearance <4758
mar>eh > of the likeness <1823 d@muwth > of a throne <3678
kicce> >.



2 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 >.



3 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 >.



4 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 >.



5 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 >.



6 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 >.



7 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] into <0413
>el > the hands <2651 chophen > of [him that was] clothed <3847
labash > with linen <0906 bad >: who took <3947 laqach > [it],
and went <3318 yatsa> > out.





8. 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 >.



9 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 >echad >
wheel <0212 >owphan > by another <0259 >echad > cherub <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 >owphan > had
been <1961 hayah > in the midst <8432 tavek > of a 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 > etsel > them.



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 chay > [was] in them.



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 > house <1004 bayith

Israel <3478 Yisra>el > [was] over <5921 <al > them above <4605
ma<al >.



20 This <1931 huw> > [is] the living <2416 chay > creature
<2416 chay > that I saw <7200 ra>ah > under < 8478 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 >echad >
four <0702 >arba< > wings <3671 kanaph >; and the likeness <1823
d@muwth > of the hands <3027 yad > of a man <0120 > adam > [was]
under <8478 tachath > their wings <3671 kanaph >.



22 And the likeness <1823 d@muwth > of their faces < 6440 paniym

>aher > I saw <7200 ra>ah > by the river <5104 nahar > of Chebar
<3529 K@bar >, their appearances <4758 mar>eh > and themselves
<6440 paniym >: they went <3212 yalak > every < 0376 >iysh > one
<0376 >iysh > straight <5676 <eber > forward <6440 paniym >.



Ezekiel 11



1. Moreover the spirit <7307 ruwach > lifted <5375 nasa> > me
up, and brought <0935 bow> > me unto the east <6931 qadmowniy >
gate <8179 sha<ar > of the LORD'S <3068 Y@hovah > 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 > whom I saw
<7200 ra>ah > Jaazaniah <2970 Ya>azanyah > the son <1121 ben >
of Azur <5809 <Azzuwr >, and Pelatiah <6410 P@latyah > the son
<1121 ben > of Benaiah <1141 B@nayah >, princes < 8269 sar > of
the people <5971 <am >.



2 Then said <0559 >amar > he unto me, Son <1121 ben > of man
<0120 >adam >, these <0428 >el-leh > [are] the men <0582 >enowsh

wicked <7451 ra< > counsel <6098 <etsah > in this <2063 zo>th >
city <5892 <iyr >:



3 Which say <0559 >amar >, [It is] not near <7138 qarowb >; let
us build <1129 banah > houses <1004 bayith >: this <1931 huw> >
[city is] the caldron <5518 ciyr >, and we [be] the flesh <1320
basar >.



4 Therefore <3651 ken > prophesy <5012 naba> > against <5921
<al > them, prophesy <5012 naba> >, O son <1121 ben > of man
<0120 >adam >.



5 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
LORD <3068 Y@hovah >; Thus <3651 ken > have ye said <0559 >amar

<3045 yada< > the things that come <4609 ma<alah > into your
mind <7307 ruwach >, [every one of] them.



6 Ye have multiplied <7235 rabah > your slain <2491 chalal > in
this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr >, and ye have filled <4390
male> > the streets <2351 chuwts > thereof with the slain <2491
chalal >.



7 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith < 0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Your slain <2491
chalal > whom <0834 >aher > ye have laid <7760 suwm > in the
midst <8432 tavek > of it, they [are] the flesh <1320 basar >,
and this <1931 huw> > [city is] the caldron <5518 ciyr >: but I
will bring <3318 yatsa> > you forth <3318 yatsa> > out of the
midst <8432 tavek > of it.



8 Ye have feared <3372 yare> > the sword <2719 chereb >; and I
will bring <0935 bow> > a sword <2719 chereb > upon you, saith
<5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD < 3069 Y@hovih >.



9 And I will bring <3318 yatsa> > you out of the midst <8432
tavek > thereof, and deliver <5414 nathan > you into the hands
<3027 yad > of strangers <2114 zuwr >, and will execute <6213
<asah > judgments <8201 shephet > among you.



10 Ye shall fall <5307 naphal > by the sword <2719 chereb >; I
will judge <8199 shaphat > you in the border <1366 g@buwl > of
Israel <3478 Yisra>el >; and ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I
[am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.



11 This <1931 huw> > [city] shall not be your caldron <5518
ciyr >, neither shall ye be the flesh <1320 basar > in the midst
<8432 tavek > thereof; [but] I will judge <8199 shaphat > you in
the border <1366 g@buwl > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >:



12 And ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068
Y@hovah >: for ye have not walked <1980 halak > in my statutes
<2706 choq >, neither <3808 lo> > executed < 6213 <asah > my
judgments <4941 mishpat >, but have done <6213 <asah > after the
manners <4941 mishpat > of the heathen <1471 gowy > that [are]
round <5439 cabiyb > about you.



13 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when I prophesied <5012
naba> >, that Pelatiah <6410 P@latyah > the son < 1121 ben > of
Benaiah <1141 B@nayah > died <4191 muwth >. Then fell <5307
naphal > I down upon my face <6440 paniym >, and cried <2199
za<aq > with a loud <1419 gadowl > voice <6963 qowl >, and said
<0559 >amar >, Ah <0162 >ahahh > Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069
Y@hovih >! wilt thou make <6213 <asah > a full end <3615 kalah >
of the remnant <7611 sh@>eriyth > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >?



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



15 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, thy brethren <0251

<1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > wholly <3605 kol >,
[are] they unto whom <0834 >aher > the inhabitants < 3427 yashab

you far <7368 rachaq > from the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >: unto us is
this <1931 huw> > land <0776 >erets > given < 5414 nathan > in
possession <4181 mowrashah >.



16 Therefore <3651 ken > say <0559 >amar >, Thus <3541 koh >
saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >;
Although <3588 kiy > I have cast <7368 rachaq > them far <7368
rachaq > off among the heathen <1471 gowy >, and although <0272
>achuzzah > I have scattered <6327 puwts > them among the
countries <0776 >erets >, yet will I be to them as a little
<4592 m@<at > sanctuary <4720 miqdash > in the countries <0776

17 Therefore <3651 ken > say <0559 >amar >, Thus <3541 koh >
saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >;
I will even gather <6908 qabats > you from the people < 5971 <am

of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >.



18 And they shall come <0935 bow> > thither <8033 sham >, and
they shall take <5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr > all <3605 kol >
the detestable <8251 shiqquwts > things thereof and all < 3605
kol > the abominations <8441 tow<ebah > thereof from thence.



19 And I will give <5414 nathan > them one <0259 > echad > heart
<3820 leb >, and I will put <5414 nathan > a new < 2319 chadash >
spirit <7307 ruwach > within <7130 qereb > you; and 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 >:



20 That they may walk <3212 yalak > in my statutes < 2708
chuqqah >, and keep <8104 shamar > mine ordinances < 4941 mishpat
>, and do <6213 <asah > them: and they shall be my people <5971
<am >, and I will be their God <0430 >elohiym >.



21 But [as for them] whose heart <3820 leb > walketh < 1980
halak > after the heart <3820 leb > of their detestable <8251
shiqquwts > things and their abominations <8441 tow<ebah >, I
will recompense <5414 nathan > their way <1870 derek > upon
their own heads <7218 ro>sh >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord
<0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.



22. Then did the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > lift <5375 nasa> > up
their wings <3671 kanaph >, and the wheels <0212 > owphan >
beside <5980 <ummah > them; and the glory <3519 kabowd > of 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
har > which <0834 >aher > [is] on the east <6924 qedem > 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
<3778 Kasdiy >, to them of the captivity <1473 gowlah >. So 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



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



2 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, thou dwellest <3427
yashab > in the midst <8432 tavek > of a rebellious < 4805 m@riy

<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 >.



3 Therefore, thou son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, prepare
<6213 <asah > thee stuff <3627 k@liy > for removing <1473 gowlah

<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 >.



4 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 >.





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



6 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 >.



7 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 >.



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



9 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 >, that he see <7200
ra>ah > not the ground <0776 >erets > 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 >;
that they may declare <5608 caphar > all <3605 kol > their
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

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

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 >amar >, The
days <3117 yowm > are prolonged <0748 >arak >, 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> > more
<5750 <owd > use <4912 mashal > it as a proverb <4911 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 > vision <2377
chazown >.



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 mashak >:
for in your days <3117 yowm >, O rebellious <4805 m@riy > house
<1004 bayith >, will I say <1696 dabar > the 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 hinneh >,
[they of] the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >
say <0559 >amar >, The vision <2377 chazown > that he seeth
<2372 chazah > [is] for many <7227 rab > days < 3117 yowm > [to
come], and he prophesieth <5012 naba> > of the times < 6256 <eth

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 <1697

<owd >, but the word <1697 dabar > which <0834 > aher > I have
spoken <1696 dabar > shall be done <6213 <asah >, saith <5002
n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.



Ezekiel 13



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



2 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, prophesy <5012 naba> >
against <0413 >el > the prophets <5030 nabiy> > of Israel <3478
Yisra>el > that prophesy <5012 naba> >, and say <0559 >amar >
thou unto them that prophesy <5012 naba> > out of their own
hearts <3820 leb >, Hear <8085 shama< > ye the word <1697 dabar
> of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >;



3 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay >
GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Woe <1945 howy > unto the foolish <5036
nabal > prophets <5030 nabiy> >, that follow their own spirit
<7307 ruwach >, and have seen <7200 ra>ah > nothing <1115 biltiy
>!



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



5 Ye have not gone <5927 <alah > up into the gaps < 6556 perets
>, neither made <1443 gadar > up the hedge <1447 gader > for the
house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > to stand <5975
<amad > in the battle <4421 milchamah > in the day <3117 yowm >
of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.



6 They have seen <2372 chazah > vanity <7723 shav> > and lying
<3577 kazab > divination <7081 qecem >, saying < 0559 >amar >,
The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > saith <5002 n@>um >: and 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 >.



7 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 > [it];
albeit I have not spoken <0559 >amar >?



8 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
seen <2372 chazah > lies <3576 kazab >, therefore < 3651 ken >,
behold <2005 hen >, I [am] against <0413 >el > you, saith <5002
n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.



9 And mine hand <3027 yad > shall be upon the prophets < 5030
nabiy> > that see <2374 chozeh > vanity <7723 shav> >, and that
divine <7080 qacam > lies <3576 kazab >: they shall not be in
the assembly <5475 cowd > of my people <5971 <am >, neither
<3808 lo> > shall they be written <3789 kathab > in the writing
<3791 kathab > of the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478
Yisra>el >, neither <3808 lo> > shall they enter <0935 bow> >
into the land <0127 >adamah > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >; and ye
shall know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the Lord <0136 >Adonay >
GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.



10. Because <3282 ya<an >, even because <3282 ya< an > they have
seduced <2937 ta<ah > my people <5971 <am >, saying <0559 >amar
>, Peace <7965 shalowm >; and [there was] no <0369 >ayin > peace
<7965 shalowm >; and one built <1129 banah > up a wall <2434
chayits >, and, lo <2009 hinneh >, others daubed < 2902 tuwach >
it with untempered <8602 taphel > [morter]:



11 Say <0559 >amar > unto them which daub <2902 tuwach > [it]
with untempered <8602 taphel > [morter], that it shall fall
<5307 naphal >: there shall be an overflowing <7857 shataph >
shower <1653 geshem >; and ye, O great <0417 > elgabiysh >
hailstones, shall fall <5307 naphal >; and a stormy < 5591 ca<ar
> wind <7307 ruwach > shall rend <1234 baqa< > [it].



12 Lo <2009 hinneh >, when the wall <7023 qiyr > is fallen
<5307 naphal >, shall it not be said <0559 >amar > unto you,
Where <0346 >ayeh > [is] the daubing <2915 tiyach > wherewith
<0834 >aher > ye have daubed <2902 tuwach > [it]?



13 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith < 0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; I will even rend
<1234 baqa< > [it] with a stormy <5591 ca<ar > wind <7307 ruwach
> in my fury <2534 chemah >; and there shall be an overflowing
<7857 shataph > shower <1653 geshem > in mine anger <0639 >aph >,
and great <0417 >elgabiysh > hailstones in [my] fury <2534
chemah > to consume <3615 kalah > [it].



14 So will I break <2040 harac > down <2040 harac > the wall
<7023 qiyr > that ye have daubed <2902 tuwach > with untempered

ground <0776 >erets >, so that the foundation <3247 y@cowd >

that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.



15 Thus will I accomplish <3615 kalah > my wrath <2534 chemah >
upon the wall <7023 qiyr >, and upon them that have daubed <2902
tuwach > it with untempered <8602 taphel > [morter], and will
say <0559 >amar > unto you, The wall <7023 qiyr > [is] no <0369

16 [To wit], the prophets <5030 nabiy> > of Israel < 3478
Yisra>el > which prophesy <5012 naba> > concerning <0413 >el >
Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >, and which see <2374 chozeh >
visions <2377 chazown > of peace <7965 shalowm > for her, and
[there is] no <0369 >ayin > peace <7965 shalowm >, saith <5002
n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.



17. Likewise, thou son <1121 ben > of man <0120 > adam >, set
<7760 suwm > thy face <6440 paniym > against <0413 >el > the
daughters <1121 ben > of thy people <5971 <am >, which prophesy
<5012 naba> > out of their own heart <3820 leb >; and prophesy
<5012 naba> > thou against <5921 <al > them,



18 And say <0559 >amar >, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Woe <1945 howy >
to the [women] that sew <8609 taphar > pillows <3704 keceth > to
all <3605 kol > armholes, and make <6213 <asah > kerchiefs <4556
micpachath > upon the head <7218 ro>sh > of every < 3605 kol >

people <5971 <am >, and will ye save <2421 chayah > the souls
<5315 nephesh > alive <2421 chayah > [that come] unto you?



19 And will ye pollute <2490 chalal > me among <0413 >el > my
people <5971 <am > for handfuls <8168 sho<al > of barley <8184
s@<orah > and for pieces <6595 path > of bread < 3899 lechem >,
to slay <4191 muwth > the souls <5315 nephesh > that should not
die <4191 muwth >, and to save <2421 chayah > the souls <5315

hear <8085 shama< > [your] lies <3576 kazab >?



20 Wherefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith < 0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Behold <2005 hen >,
I [am] against <0413 >el > your pillows <3704 keceth >,
wherewith <0834 >aher > ye there <8033 sham > hunt <6679 tsuwd >
the souls <5315 nephesh > to make [them] fly <6524 parach >, and
I will tear <7167 qara< > them from your arms <2220 z@rowa< >,
and will let the souls <5315 nephesh > go <7971 shalach >,
[even] the souls <5315 nephesh > that ye hunt <6679 tsuwd > to
make [them] fly <6524 parach >.



21 Your kerchiefs <4556 micpachath > also will I tear < 7167
qara< >, and deliver <5337 natsal > my people < 5971 <am > out of
your hand <3027 yad >, and they shall be no <3808 lo> > more
<5750 <owd > in your hand <3027 yad > to be hunted <4686 matsuwd

22 Because <3282 ya<an > with lies <3576 kazab > ye have made
the heart <3820 leb > of the righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > sad
<3512 ka>ah >, whom I have not made sad <3510 ka> ab >; and
strengthened <2388 chazaq > the hands <3027 yad > of the wicked
<7451 ra< >, that he should not return <7725 shuwb > from his
wicked <7563 rasha< > way <1870 derek >, by promising <2421

23 Therefore <3651 ken > ye shall see <2372 chazah > no <3808

divine <7181 qashab > divinations <7081 qecem >: for I will
deliver <5337 natsal > my people <5971 <am > out of your hand

LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.



Ezekiel 14



1. Then came <0935 bow> > certain <0582 >enowsh > of the elders
<2205 zaqen > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > unto me, and sat <3427
yashab > before <6440 paniym > me.



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



3 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, these < 0428 >el-leh >
men <0582 >enowsh > have set <5927 <alah > up their idols <1544
gilluwl > in their heart <3820 leb >, and put <5414 nathan > the
stumblingblock <4383 mikshowl > of their iniquity <5771 <avon >
before <5227 nokach > their face <6440 paniym >: should I be
enquired <1875 darash > of at all by them?



4 Therefore <3651 ken > speak <1696 dabar > unto them, and say
<0559 >amar > unto them, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Every man <0376

that setteth <5927 <alah > up his idols <1544 gilluwl > in his

<4383 mikshowl > of his iniquity <5771 <avon > before <5227
nokach > his face <6440 paniym >, and cometh <0935 bow> > to the
prophet <5030 nabiy> >; I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > will answer
<6030 <anah > him that cometh <0935 bow> > according to the
multitude <7230 rob > of his idols <1544 gilluwl >;



5 That I may take <8610 taphas > the house <1004 bayith > of
Israel <3478 Yisra>el > in their own heart <3820 leb >, because
<0834 >aher > they are all <3605 kol > estranged <2114 zuwr >
from me through their idols <1544 gilluwl >.



6 Therefore <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 >;
Repent <7725 shuwb >, and turn <7725 shuwb > [yourselves] from
your idols <1544 gilluwl >; and turn <7725 shuwb > away your
faces <6440 paniym > from all <3605 kol > your abominations
<8441 tow<ebah >.



7 For every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > of the house <1004
bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, or of the stranger <1616
ger > that sojourneth <1481 guwr > in Israel <3478 Yisra>el >,
which separateth <5144 nazar > himself from me, and setteth
<5927 <alah > up his idols <1544 gilluwl > in his heart <3820
leb >, and putteth <7760 suwm > the stumblingblock < 4383
mikshowl > of his iniquity <5771 <avon > before < 5227 nokach >
his face <6440 paniym >, and cometh <0935 bow> > to a prophet
<5030 nabiy> > to enquire <1875 darash > of him concerning me; I
the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > will answer <6030 <anah > him by myself:



8 And I will set <5414 nathan > my face <6440 paniym > against
that man <0376 >iysh >, and will make <8074 shamem > him a sign
<0226 >owth > and a proverb <4912 mashal >, and I will cut <3772
karath > him off from the midst <8432 tavek > of my people <5971
<am >; and ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD
<3068 Y@hovah >.



9 And if <3588 kiy > the prophet <5030 nabiy> > be deceived
<6601 pathah > when <3588 kiy > he hath spoken < 1696 dabar > a
thing <1697 dabar >, I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have deceived
<6601 pathah > that prophet <5030 nabiy> >, and I will stretch
<5186 natah > out my hand <3027 yad > upon him, and will destroy
<8045 shamad > him from the midst <8432 tavek > of my people
<5971 <am > Israel <3478 Yisra>el >.



10 And they shall bear <5375 nasa> > the punishment < 5771 <avon

of the prophet <5030 nabiy> > shall be even as the punishment
<5771 <avon > of him that seeketh <1875 darash > [unto him];



11 That the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > may
go <8582 ta<ah > no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > astray <8582

any <3605 kol > more <5750 <owd > with all < 3605 kol > their
transgressions <6588 pesha< >; but that they may be my people
<5971 <am >, and I may be their God <0430 >elohiym >, saith
<5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD < 3069 Y@hovih >.



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



13 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, when < 3588 kiy > the
land <0776 >erets > sinneth <2398 chata> > against me by
trespassing <4603 ma<al > grievously <4604 ma<al >, then will I
stretch <5186 natah > out mine hand <3027 yad > upon it, and
will break <7665 shabar > the staff <4294 matteh > of the bread
<3899 lechem > thereof, and will send <7971 shalach > famine
<7458 ra<ab > upon it, and will cut <3772 karath > off man <0120

14 Though these <0428 >el-leh > three <7969 shalowsh > men
<0582 >enowsh >, Noah <5146 Noach >, Daniel < 1840 Daniye>l >,
and Job <0347 >Iyowb >, were in it, they should deliver <5337

righteousness <6666 ts@daqah >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord
<0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.



15 If <3863 luw> > I cause noisome <7451 ra< > beasts <2416

and they spoil <7921 shakol > it, so that it be desolate <8077
sh@mamah >, that no <1097 b@liy > man may pass <5674 <abar >
through because <6440 paniym > of the beasts <2416 chay >:





16 [Though] these <0428 >el-leh > three <7969 shalowsh > men
<0582 >enowsh > [were] in it, [as] I live <2416 chay >, saith
<5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD < 3069 Y@hovih >, they

17 Or <0176 >ow > [if] I bring <0935 bow> > a sword <2719

Sword <2719 chereb >, go <5674 <abar > through the land <0776

beast <0929 b@hemah > from it:



18 Though these <0428 >el-leh > three <7969 shalowsh > men
<0582 >enowsh > [were] in it, [as] I live <2416 chay >, saith
<5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD < 3069 Y@hovih >, they

delivered <5337 natsal > themselves.



19 Or <0176 >ow > [if] I send <7971 shalach > a pestilence

pour <8210 shaphak > out my fury <2534 chemah > upon it in blood
<1818 dam >, to cut <3772 karath > off from it man <0120 >adam >
and beast <0929 b@hemah >:



20 Though Noah <5146 Noach >, Daniel <1840 Daniye>l >, and Job

<5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD < 3069 Y@hovih >, they
shall deliver <5337 natsal > neither <0518 >im > son <1121 ben >
nor <0518 >im > daughter <1323 bath >; they shall [but] deliver
<5337 natsal > their own souls <5315 nephesh > by their
righteousness <6666 ts@daqah >.



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

22 Yet, behold <2009 hinneh >, therein shall be left < 3498

23 And they shall comfort <5162 nacham > you, when ye see <7200

Ezekiel 15



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



2 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, What < 4100 mah > is the
vine <1612 gephen > tree <6086 <ets > more than any tree <6086

is among the trees <6086 <ets > of the forest <3293 ya<ar >?



3 Shall wood <6086 <ets > be taken <3947 laqach > thereof to do
<6213 <asah > any work <4399 m@la>kah >? or will [men] take
<3947 laqach > a pin <3489 yathed > of it to hang < 8518 talah >
any <3605 kol > vessel <3627 k@liy > thereon <5921 <al >?



4 Behold <2009 hinneh >, it is cast <5414 nathan > into the

devoureth <0398 >akal > both <8147 sh@nayim > the ends <7098

5 Behold <2009 hinneh >, when it was whole <8549 tamiym >, it

how <0637 >aph > much <7227 rab > less shall it be meet <6213

6 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith < 0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; As the vine <1612

7 And I will set <5414 nathan > my face <6440 paniym > against

8 And I will make <5414 nathan > the land <0776 > erets >

Ezekiel 16



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



2 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, cause Jerusalem <3389
Y@ruwshalaim > to know <3045 yada< > her abominations <8441
tow<ebah >,



3 And say <0559 >amar >, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > unto Jerusalem
<3389 Y@ruwshalaim >; Thy birth <4351 m@kuwrah > and thy
nativity <4138 mowledeth > [is] of the land <0776 > erets > of
Canaan <3667 K@na<an >; thy father <1> [was] an Amorite <0567
>Emoriy >, and thy mother <0517 >em > an Hittite <2850 Chittiy >.



4 And [as for] thy nativity <4138 mowledeth >, in the day <3117
yowm > thou wast born <3205 yalad > thy navel <8270 shor > was
not cut <3772 karath >, neither <3808 lo> > wast thou washed
<7364 rachats > in water <4325 mayim > to supple < 4935 mish<iy >
[thee]; thou wast not salted <4414 malach > at all, nor < 3808
lo> > swaddled <2853 chathal > at all.



5 None <3808 lo> > eye <5869 <ayin > pitied <2347 chuwc > thee,
to do <6213 <asah > any <0259 >echad > of these <0428 >el-leh >
unto thee, to have compassion <2550 chamal > upon thee; but thou
wast cast <7993 shalak > out in the open <6440 paniym > field
<7704 sadeh >, to the lothing <1604 go<al > of thy person <5315
nephesh >, in the day <3117 yowm > that thou wast born <3205
yalad >.



6. And when I passed <5674 <abar > by thee, and saw < 7200 ra>ah

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 >.



7 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 >.





8 Now when I passed <5674 <abar > by thee, and looked <7200
ra>ah > upon thee, behold <2009 hinneh >, thy time <6256 <eth >
[was] the time <6256 <eth > of love <1730 dowd >; and I spread
<6566 paras > my skirt <3671 kanaph > over <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 >, and thou becamest <1961
hayah > mine.



9 Then washed <7364 rachats > I thee with water <4325 mayim >;
yea, I throughly washed <7857 shataph > away thy blood < 1818 dam

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

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

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 >
and silver <3701 keceph >; and thy raiment <4403 malbuwsh > [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

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 >
and thy daughters <1121 ben >, whom <0834 >aher > thou hast
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 >,
and delivered <5414 nathan > them to cause them to pass <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 > these
<0428 >el-leh > [things], the work <4639 ma<aseh > of an
imperious <7986 shalleteth > whorish <2181 zanah > woman <0802
>ishshah >;



31 In that thou buildest <1129 banah > thine eminent < 1354 gab

derek >, and makest <6213 <asah > thine high <7413 ramah > place
in every <3605 kol > street <7339 r@chob >; and hast 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 > ahab >, and
with all <3605 kol > the idols <1544 gilluwl > of thy
abominations <8441 tow<ebah >, and by the blood <1818 dam > of
thy children <1121 ben >, which <0834 >aher > thou didst 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> >; I
will even gather <6908 qabats > them round <5439 cabiyb > about
against <5921 <al > thee, and will discover <1540 galah > thy
nakedness <6172 <ervah > unto them, that they may see <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

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

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

<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 >amar >,
As [is] the mother <0517 >em >, [so is] her daughter < 1323 bath

45 Thou [art] thy mother's <0517 >em > daughter < 1323 bath >,
that lotheth <1602 ga<al > her husband <0376 >iysh > and her
children <1121 ben >; and thou [art] the sister <0269 >achowth >
of thy sisters <0269 >achowth >, which <0834 >aher > lothed
<1602 ga<al > their husbands <0582 >enowsh > and 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 ben >
that dwell <3427 yashab > at <5921 <al > thy left <8040 s@mo>wl

<0269 >achowth >, that dwelleth <3427 yashab > at thy 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 >
little <4592 m@<at > [thing], thou wast corrupted < 7843 shachath

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 shaqat

poor <6041 <aniy > and needy <34>.



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 >aher > thou hast done
<6213 <asah >.



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 ta<ab >
than they: they are more righteous <6663 tsadaq > than 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 > achowth >.



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 Shom@rown > and
her daughters <1121 ben > shall return <7725 shuwb > to their
former <6927 qadmah > estate <3653 ken >, then thou and thy
daughters <1121 ben > shall return <7725 shuwb > to your former
<6927 qadmah > estate.



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 <5439 cabiyb

P@lishtiy >, which despise <7590 sha>t > thee round <5439 cabiyb

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 derek

laqach > thy sisters <0269 >achowth >, thine elder <1419 gadowl

them unto thee for daughters <1121 ben >, but not by thy
covenant <1285 b@riyth >.



62 And I will establish <6965 quwm > my covenant <1285 b@riyth

LORD <3068 Y@hovah >:



63 That thou mayest remember <2142 zakar >, and be confounded
<0954 buwsh >, and never <3808 lo> > open <6610 pithchown > thy
mouth <6310 peh > any more <5750 <owd > because <6440 paniym >
of thy shame <3639 k@limmah >, when I am pacified <3722 kaphar >
toward thee for all <3605 kol > that thou hast done < 6213 <asah

Ezekiel 17



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



2 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 >;



3 And say <0559 >amar >, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; A great <1419

<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 >erez >:



4 He cropped <6998 qataph > off the top <7218 ro>sh > of his
young <3242 y@niqah > twigs <3242 y@niqah >, and carried <0935

he set <7760 suwm > it in a city <5892 <iyr > of merchants
<7402 rakal >.



5 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.



6 And it grew <6779 tsamach >, and became <1961 hayah > a
spreading <5627 carah > vine <1612 gephen > of low <8217 shaphal
> stature <6967 qowmah >, whose branches <1808 daliyah > 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

7 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< >.



8 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

>.



9 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

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



12 Say <0559 >amar > now <4994 na> > to the rebellious <4805
m@riy > house <1004 bayith >, Know <3045 yada< > ye not what
<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 >
seed <2233 zera< >, and made <3772 karath > a covenant <1285
b@riyth > with him, and hath taken <0935 bow> > an oath <0423
>alah > of him: he hath also taken <3947 laqach > the mighty
<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

<4427 malak >, whose oath <0423 >alah > he despised <0959 bazah

<6565 parar >, [even] with him in the midst <8432 tavek > of
Babylon <0894 Babel > he shall die <4191 muwth >.



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 >, to
cut <3772 karath > off many <7227 rab > persons < 5315 nephesh >:



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 >el-leh
> [things], he shall not escape <4422 malat >.



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 >
shall be scattered <6566 paras > toward all <3605 kol > winds
<7307 ruwach >: and ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I the LORD
<3068 Y@hovah > have spoken <1696 dabar > [it].



22. Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay
> GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; I will also take <3947 laqach > of the
highest <6788 tsammereth > branch <6788 tsammereth > of the high
<7311 ruwm > cedar <0730 >erez >, and will set < 5414 nathan >
[it]; I will crop <6998 qataph > off from the top <7218 ro>sh >
of his young <3127 yowneqeth > twigs <3127 yowneqeth > a tender
<7390 rak > one, and will plant <8362 shathal > [it] upon an
high <1364 gaboahh > mountain <2022 har > and eminent <8524
talal >:



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
<anaph >, and bear <6213 <asah > fruit <6529 p@riy >, and be a
goodly <0117 >addiyr > cedar <0730 >erez >: and under <8478

<6833 tsippowr > of every <3605 kol > wing <3671 kanaph >; in
the shadow <6738 tsel > of the branches <1808 daliyah > thereof
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
Y@hovah > have brought <8213 shaphel > down <8213 shaphel > the
high <1364 gaboahh > tree <6086 <ets >, have exalted <1361
gabahh > the low <8217 shaphal > tree <6086 <ets >, have dried
<3001 yabesh > up the green <3892 lach > tree < 6086 <ets >, and
have made the dry <3002 yabesh > tree <6086 <ets > to flourish
<6524 parach >: I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have spoken <1696

Ezekiel 18



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



2 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 ben >
teeth <8127 shen > are set on edge <6949 qahah >?



3 [As] I live <2416 chay >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136
>Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >, ye shall not have [occasion] any
more <5750 <owd > to use <4911 mashal > this < 2088 zeh > proverb
<4911 mashal > in Israel <3478 Yisra>el >.



4 Behold <2005 hen >, all <3605 kol > souls <5315 nephesh > are
mine; as the soul <5315 nephesh > of the father <1>, so also the
soul <5315 nephesh > of the son <1121 ben > is mine: the soul
<5315 nephesh > that sinneth <2398 chata> >, it shall die <4191
muwth >.



5 But if <3588 kiy > a man <0376 >iysh > be just <6662 tsaddiyq

right <6666 ts@daqah >,



6 [And] hath not eaten <0398 >akal > upon the mountains <2022
har >, neither <3808 lo> > hath lifted <5375 nasa> > up his eyes
<5869 <ayin > to the idols <1544 gilluwl > of the house <1004
bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, neither <3808 lo> > hath
defiled <2930 tame> > his neighbour's <7453 rea< > wife <0802

<7126 qarab > to a menstruous <5079 niddah > woman <0802
>ishshah >,



7 And hath not oppressed <3238 yanah > any <0376 > iysh >, [but]
hath restored <7725 shuwb > to the debtor <2326 chowb > his
pledge <2258 chabol >, hath spoiled <1497 gazal > none <3808 lo>

bread <3899 lechem > to the hungry <7456 ra<eb >, and hath
covered <3680 kacah > the naked <5903 <eyrom > with a garment
<0899 beged >;



8 He [that] hath not given <5414 nathan > forth upon usury
<5392 neshek >, neither <3808 lo> > hath taken < 3947 laqach >
any increase <8635 tarbuwth >, [that] hath withdrawn < 7725 shuwb

executed <6213 <asah > true <0571 >emeth > judgment <4941
mishpat > between <0996 beyn > man <0376 >iysh > and man <0376
>iysh >,



9 Hath walked <1980 halak > in my statutes <2708 chuqqah >, and
hath kept <8104 shamar > my judgments <4941 mishpat >, to deal
<6213 <asah > truly <0571 >emeth >; he [is] just <6662 tsaddiyq

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



10. If he beget <3205 yalad > a son <1121 ben > [that is] a
robber <6530 p@riyts >, a shedder <8210 shaphak > of blood <1818
dam >, and [that] doeth <6213 <asah > the like < 0251 >ach > to
[any] one <0259 >echad > of these <0428 >el-leh > [things],



11 And that doeth <6213 <asah > not any <3605 kol > of those
<0428 >el-leh > [duties], but even <1571 gam > hath eaten <0398
>akal > upon the mountains <2022 har >, and defiled <2930 tame>
> his neighbour's <7453 rea< > wife <0802 > ishshah >,



12 Hath oppressed <3238 yanah > the poor <6041 <aniy > and
needy <34>, hath spoiled <1497 gazal > by violence <1500 g@zelah

and hath lifted <5375 nasa> > up his eyes <5869 < ayin > to the
idols <1544 gilluwl >, hath committed <6213 <asah > abomination
<8441 tow<ebah >,



13 Hath given <5414 nathan > forth upon usury <5392 neshek >,
and hath taken <3947 laqach > increase <8635 tarbuwth >: shall
he then live <2425 chayay >? he shall not live <2421 chayah >:
he hath done <6213 <asah > all <3605 kol > these <0428 >el-leh >
abominations <8441 tow<ebah >; he shall surely die < 4191 muwth >;
his blood <1818 dam > shall be upon him.



14 Now, lo <2009 hinneh >, [if] he beget <3205 yalad > a son
<1121 ben >, that seeth <7200 ra>ah > all <3605 kol > his
father's <1> sins <2403 chatta>ah > which <0834 >aher > he hath
done <6213 <asah >, and considereth <7200 ra>ah >, and doeth
<6213 <asah > not such <2007 hennah > like,



15 [That] hath not eaten <0398 >akal > upon the mountains <2022
har >, neither <3808 lo> > hath lifted <5375 nasa> > up his eyes
<5869 <ayin > to the idols <1544 gilluwl > of the house <1004
bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, hath not defiled <2930
tame> > his neighbour's <7453 rea< > wife <0802 >ishshah >,



16 Neither <3808 lo> > hath oppressed <3238 yanah > any <0376
>iysh >, hath not withholden <2254 chabal > the pledge <2258
chabol >, neither <3808 lo> > hath spoiled <1497 gazal > by
violence <1500 g@zelah >, [but] hath given <5414 nathan > his
bread <3899 lechem > to the hungry <7456 ra<eb >, and hath
covered <3680 kacah > the naked <5903 <eyrom > with a garment
<0899 beged >,





17 [That] hath taken <7725 shuwb > off his hand <3027 yad >
from the poor <6041 <aniy >, [that] hath not received <3947
laqach > usury <5392 neshek > nor increase <8635 tarbuwth >,
hath executed <6213 <asah > my judgments <4941 mishpat >, hath
walked <1980 halak > in my statutes <2708 chuqqah >; he 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 gazal >
his brother <0251 >ach > by violence <1499 gezel >, and did
<6213 <asah > [that] which <0834 >aher > [is] not good <2896
towb > among <8432 tavek > his people <5971 <am >, lo <2009
hinneh >, even he shall die <4191 muwth > in his iniquity <5771
<avon >.



19 Yet say <0559 >amar > ye, Why <4069 madduwa< >? doth not the
son <1121 ben > bear <5375 nasa> > the iniquity <5771 <avon > of
the father <1>? When the son <1121 ben > hath done <6213 <asah >
that which is lawful <4941 mishpat > and right <6666 ts@daqah >,
[and] hath kept <8104 shamar > all <3605 kol > my statutes <2708
chuqqah >, and hath done <6213 <asah > them, he shall surely
live <2421 chayah >.



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
iniquity <5771 <avon > of the son <1121 ben >: the righteousness
<6666 ts@daqah > of the righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > shall be upon
him, and the wickedness <7564 rish<ah > of the wicked <7563
rasha< > shall be upon him.



21. But if the wicked <7563 rasha< > will turn <7725 shuwb >
from all <3605 kol > his sins <2403 chatta>ah > that he hath
committed <6213 <asah >, and keep <8104 shamar > all <3605 kol >
my statutes <2708 chuqqah >, and do <6213 <asah > that which is
lawful <4941 mishpat > and right <6666 ts@daqah >, he shall
surely live <2421 chayah >, he shall not die <4191 muwth >.



22 All <3605 kol > his transgressions <6588 pesha< > that he
hath committed <6213 <asah >, they shall not be mentioned <2142
zakar > unto him: in his righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > that he
hath done <6213 <asah > he shall live <2421 chayah >.



23 Have I any pleasure <2654 chaphets > at all that the wicked
<7563 rasha< > should die <4194 maveth >? saith <5002 n@>um >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >: [and] not that he
should return <7725 shuwb > from his ways <1870 derek >, and
live <2421 chayah >?



24 But when the righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > turneth < 7725 shuwb
> away from his righteousness <6666 ts@daqah >, and committeth
<6213 <asah > iniquity <5766 <evel >, [and] doeth <6213 <asah >
according to all <3605 kol > the abominations <8441 tow<ebah >
that the wicked <7563 rasha< > [man] doeth <6213 < asah >, shall
he live <2425 chayay >? All <3605 kol > his righteousness <6666
ts@daqah > that he hath done <6213 <asah > shall not be
mentioned <2142 zakar >: in his trespass <4604 ma<al > that he
hath trespassed <4604 ma<al >, and in his sin <2403 chatta>ah >
that he hath sinned <2398 chata> >, in them shall he die <4191
muwth >.



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
>Adonay > is not equal <8505 takan >. O house < 1004 bayith > 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 <0376
>iysh > one <0376 >iysh > according to his ways <1870 derek >,
saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.
Repent <7725 shuwb >, and turn <7725 shuwb > [yourselves] from
all <3605 kol > your transgressions <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

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 chayah

Ezekiel 19



1. Moreover take <5375 nasa> > thou up a lamentation <7015
qiynah > for the princes <5387 nasiy> > of Israel < 3478 Yisra>el
>,



2 And say <0559 >amar >, What <4100 mah > [is] thy mother <0517
>em >? A lioness <3833 labiy> >: she lay <7257 rabats > down
<7257 rabats > among <0996 beyn > lions <0738 > ariy >, she
nourished <7235 rabah > her whelps <1482 guwr > among <8432
tavek > young <3715 k@phiyr > lions <3715 k@phiyr > .





3 And she brought <5927 <alah > up one <0259 > echad > of her
whelps <1482 guwr >: 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 >.



4 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 >.



5 Now when she saw <7200 ra>ah > that she had waited <3176
yachal >, [and] her hope <8615 tiqvah > was lost < 6>, 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 >.



6 And he went <1980 halak > up and down among <8432 tavek > the
lions <0738 >ariy >, he became <1961 hayah > a young <3715
k@phiyr > lion <3715 k@phiyr >, and learned <3925 lamad > to
catch <2963 taraph > the prey <2964 tereph >, [and] devoured
<0398 >akal > men <0120 >adam >.



7 And he knew <3045 yada< > their desolate <0490 > almanah >
palaces, and he laid waste <2717 charab > their cities < 5892
<iyr >; and the land <0776 >erets > was desolate <3456 yasham >,
and the fulness <4393 m@lo> > thereof, by the noise < 6963 qowl >
of his roaring <7581 sh@agah >.



8 Then the nations <1471 gowy > set <5414 nathan > against
<5921 <al > him on every <5437 cabab > side < 5439 cabiyb > from
the provinces <4082 m@diynah >, and spread <6566 paras > their
net <7568 resheth > over <5921 <al > him: he was taken <8610
taphas > in their pit <7845 shachath >.



9 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>
> him into holds <4686 matsuwd >, that his voice < 6963 qowl >
should no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > be heard <8085 shama< >
upon the mountains <2022 har > of Israel <3478 Yisra> el >.



10. Thy mother <0517 >em > [is] like a vine <1612 gephen > in
thy blood <1818 dam >, planted <8362 shathal > by the waters
<4325 mayim >: she was fruitful <6509 parah > and 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
matteh > for the sceptres <7626 shebet > of them that bare <4910
mashal > rule <4910 mashal >, and her stature <6967 qowmah > was
exalted <1361 gabahh > among <0996 beyn > the thick <5688 <aboth
> branches <5688 <aboth >, and she appeared <7200 ra>ah > in her
height <1363 gobahh > with the multitude <7230 rob > of her
branches <1808 daliyah >.



12 But she was plucked <5428 nathash > up in fury <2534 chemah
>, she was cast <7993 shalak > down to the ground < 0776 >erets >,
and the east <6921 qadiym > wind <7307 ruwach > dried <3001
yabesh > up her fruit <6529 p@riy >: her strong <5797 <oz > rods
<4294 matteh > were broken <6531 perek > and withered <3001
yabesh >; the fire <0784 >esh > consumed <0398 > akal > them.



13 And now <6258 <attah > she [is] planted <8362 shathal > in
the wilderness <4057 midbar >, in a dry <6723 tsiyah > and
thirsty <6772 tsama> > ground <0776 >erets >.



14 And fire <0784 >esh > is gone <3318 yatsa> > out of a rod
<4294 matteh > of her branches <0905 bad >, [which] hath
devoured <0398 >akal > her fruit <6529 p@riy >, so that she hath
no <3808 lo> > strong <5797 <oz > rod <4294 matteh > [to be] a
sceptre <7626 shebet > to rule <4910 mashal >. This <1931 huw> >
[is] a lamentation <7015 qiynah >, and shall be for a
lamentation <7015 qiynah >.



Ezekiel 20



1. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the seventh < 7637
sh@biy<iy > year <8141 shaneh >, in the fifth < 2549 chamiyshiy >
[month], the tenth <6218 <asowr > [day] of the month < 2320
chodesh >, [that] certain <0582 >enowsh > of the elders <2205
zaqen > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > came <0935 bow> > to enquire
<1875 darash > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, and sat <3427 yashab

2 Then came <1961 hayah > the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD
<3068 Y@hovah > unto me, saying <0559 >amar >,



3 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, speak < 1696 dabar >
unto the elders <2205 zaqen > of Israel <3478 Yisra> el >, and
say <0559 >amar > unto them, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar

<0935 bow> > to enquire <1875 darash > of me? [As] I live <2416
chay >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 > Adonay > GOD <3069
Y@hovih >, I will not be enquired <1875 darash > of by you.



4 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>:



5. 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 <3478
Yisra>el >, and lifted <5375 nasa> > up mine hand <3027 yad >
unto the seed <2233 zera< > of the house <1004 bayith > of 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 >;



6 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 had
espied <8446 tuwr > for them, flowing <2100 zuwb > with milk
<2461 chalab > and honey <1706 d@bash >, which < 1958 hiy > [is]
the glory <6643 ts@biy > of all <3605 kol > lands < 0776 >erets >:



7 Then said <0559 >amar > I unto them, Cast <7993 shalak > ye
away every man <0376 >iysh > the abominations <8251 shiqquwts >
of his eyes <5869 <ayin >, and defile <2930 tame> > not
yourselves with the idols <1544 gilluwl > of Egypt <4714
Mitsrayim >: I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > your God <0430
>elohiym >.



8 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 >.



9 But I wrought <6213 <asah > for my name's <8034 shem > sake
<4616 ma<an >, that it should not be polluted <2490 chalal >
before <5869 <ayin > the heathen <1471 gowy >, among <8432 tavek

<5869 <ayin > I made myself known <3045 yada< > unto them, in
bringing <3318 yatsa> > them forth <3318 yatsa> > out of the
land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >.



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 >,
he shall even live <2425 chayay > in them.



12 Moreover <1571 gam > also <1571 gam > I gave < 5414 nathan >
them my sabbaths <7676 shabbath >, to be a sign <0226 >owth >
between <0996 beyn > me and them, that they might know < 3045
yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > that sanctify <6942
qadash > them.



13 But the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >
rebelled <4784 marah > against me in the wilderness < 4057 midbar
>: they walked <1980 halak > not in my statutes <2708 chuqqah >,
and they despised <3988 ma>ac > my judgments <4941 mishpat >,
which <0834 >aher > [if] a man <0120 >adam > do <6213 <asah >,
he shall even live <2425 chayay > in them; and my sabbaths <7676
shabbath > they greatly <3966 m@<od > polluted < 2490 chalal >:
then I said <0559 >amar >, I would pour <8210 shaphak > out my
fury <2534 chemah > upon them in the wilderness <4057 midbar >,
to consume <3615 kalah > them.



14 But I wrought <6213 <asah > for my name's <8034 shem > sake
<4616 ma<an >, that it should not be polluted <2490 chalal >
before <5869 <ayin > the heathen <1471 gowy >, in whose <0834
>aher > sight <5869 <ayin > I brought <3318 yatsa> > them out.



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 <0776

flowing <2100 zuwb > with milk <2461 chalab > and honey <1706
d@bash >, which <1958 hiy > [is] the glory of all < 3605 kol >
lands <0776 >erets >;



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> >
did I make <6213 <asah > an end <3615 kalah > of them in the
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 >al >
observe <8104 shamar > their judgments <4941 mishpat > , nor
<0408 >al > defile <2930 tame> > yourselves with their idols
<1544 gilluwl >:



19 I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > your God <0430 > elohiym >;
walk <3212 yalak > in my statutes <2708 chuqqah >, and keep
<8104 shamar > my judgments <4941 mishpat >, and do <6213 <asah

20 And hallow <6942 qadash > my sabbaths <7676 shabbath >; and
they shall be a sign <0226 >owth > between <0996 beyn > me and
you, that ye may know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the 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 >, he shall even
live <2425 chayay > in them; they polluted <2490 chalal > my
sabbaths <7676 shabbath >: then I said <0559 >amar >, I would
pour <8210 shaphak > out my fury <2534 chemah > upon them, to
accomplish <3615 kalah > my anger <0639 >aph > against them in
the wilderness <4057 midbar >.



22 Nevertheless I withdrew <7725 shuwb > mine hand < 3027 yad >,
and wrought <6213 <asah > for my name's <8034 shem > sake <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 >erets >;



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 shamem >,
to the end <4616 ma<an > that they might know <3045 yada< > that
I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.



27. Therefore <3651 ken >, son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >,
speak <1696 dabar > unto the house <1004 bayith > of 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 > against me.



28 [For] when I had brought <0935 bow> > them into < 0413 >el >
the land <0776 >erets >, [for] the which <0834 > aher > I lifted
<5375 nasa> > up mine hand <3027 yad > to give < 5414 nathan > it
to them, then they saw <7200 ra>ah > every <3605 kol > high
<7311 ruwm > hill <1389 gib<ah >, and all <3605 kol > the thick
<5687 <aboth > trees <6086 <ets >, and they offered <2076 zabach

<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 > [is]
the high <1116 bamah > place whereunto ye go <0935 bow> >? 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 shiqquwts >?



31 For when ye offer <5375 nasa> > your gifts <4979 mattanah >,
when ye make your sons <1121 ben > to pass <5674 < abar > 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 darash > of by you,
O house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >? [As] I live
<2416 chay >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord < 0136 >Adonay > GOD
<3069 Y@hovih >, I will not be enquired of by you.



32 And that which cometh <5927 <alah > into <5921 <al > your
mind <7307 ruwach > shall not be at all, that ye say < 0559 >amar

mishpachah > of the countries <0776 >erets >, to serve <8334
sharath > wood <6086 <ets > and stone <68>.



33. [As] I live, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay >
GOD <3069 Y@hovih >, surely with a mighty <2389 chazaq > hand
<3027 yad >, and with a stretched <5186 natah > out arm <2220
z@rowa< >, and with fury <2534 chemah > poured < 8210 shaphak >
out, will I rule <4427 malak > over you:



34 And I will bring <3318 yatsa> > you out from the people
<5971 <am >, and will gather <6908 qabats > you out of the
countries <0776 >erets > wherein <0834 >aher > ye are scattered
<6327 puwts >, with a mighty <2389 chazaq > hand < 3027 yad >,
and with a stretched <5186 natah > out arm <2220 z@rowa< >, and
with fury <2534 chemah > poured <8210 shaphak > out.



35 And I will bring <0935 bow> > you into <0413 > el > the
wilderness <4057 midbar > of the people <5971 <am > , and there
<8033 sham > will I plead <8199 shaphat > with you face <6440
paniym > to face <6440 paniym >.



36 Like as I pleaded <8199 shaphat > with your fathers < 1> in
the wilderness <4057 midbar > of the land <0776 > erets > of
Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, so <3651 ken > will I plead <8199
shaphat > with you, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord < 0136 >Adonay >
GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.



37 And I will cause you to pass <5674 <abar > under < 8478
tachath > the rod <7626 shebet >, and I will bring < 0935 bow> >
you into the bond <4562 macoreth > of the covenant <1285 b@riyth

38 And I will purge <1305 barar > out from among you the rebels
<4775 marad >, and them that transgress <6586 pasha< > against
me: I will bring <3318 yatsa> > them forth <3318 yatsa> > out of
the country <0776 >erets > where they sojourn <4033 maguwr >,
and they shall not enter <0935 bow> > into <0413 > el > the land
<0127 >adamah > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >: and ye shall know
<3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.



39 As for you, O house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el

GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Go <3212 yalak > ye, serve < 5647 <abad > ye
every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > his idols <1544 gilluwl >,

40 For in mine holy <6944 qodesh > mountain <2022 har >, in the
mountain <2022 har > of the height <4791 marowm > of Israel
<3478 Yisra>el >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay >

41 I will accept <7521 ratsah > you with your sweet < 5207

45. Moreover the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

46 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, set < 7760 suwm > thy

47 And say <0559 >amar > to the forest <3293 ya< ar > of the

Ezekiel 21



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



2 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, set < 7760 suwm > thy
face <6440 paniym > toward <0413 >el > Jerusalem <3389
Y@ruwshalaim >, and drop <5197 nataph > [thy word] toward <0413

Yisra>el >,



3 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] against <0413 >el >
thee, and will draw <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > my sword
<2719 chereb > out of his sheath <8593 ta<ar >, and will cut
<3772 karath > off from thee the righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > and
the wicked <7563 rasha< >.



4 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 <3318
yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > out of his sheath <8593 ta<ar >
against <0413 >el > all <3605 kol > flesh <1320 basar > from the
south <5045 negeb > to the north <6828 tsaphown >:



5 That all <3605 kol > flesh <1320 basar > may know <3045 yada<

forth <3318 yatsa> > my sword <2719 chereb > out of his sheath
<8593 ta<ar >: it shall not return <7725 shuwb > any more <5750
<owd >.



6 Sigh <0584 >anach > therefore, thou son <1121 ben > of 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 >.



7 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 kol > heart
<3820 leb > shall melt <4549 macac >, and all < 3605 kol > hands
<3027 yad > shall be feeble <7503 raphah >, and every <3605 kol

<4325 mayim >: behold <2009 hinneh >, it cometh < 0935 bow> >,
and shall be brought <1961 hayah > to pass, saith <5002 n@>um >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.



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



9 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, prophesy <5012 naba> >,
and say <0559 >amar >, Thus <3541 koh > saith < 0559 >amar > the
LORD <3068 Y@hovah >; Say <0559 >amar >, A sword <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 >
of my son <1121 ben >, [as] every <3605 kol > tree <6086 <ets >.



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 > of
man <0120 >adam >: for it shall be upon my people < 5971 <am >,
it [shall be] upon all <3605 kol > the princes <5387 nasiy> > of
Israel <3478 Yisra>el >: terrors <4048 magar > by reason <0413
>el > of the sword <2719 chereb > shall be 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

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 >, that
the sword <2719 chereb > of the king <4428 melek > of Babylon
<0894 Babel > may come <0935 bow> >: both twain <8147 sh@nayim >
shall come <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > out of one <0259

place <3027 yad >, choose <1254 bara> > [it] at 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

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

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

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 kol

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
>aher > day <3117 yowm > is come <0935 bow> > , when <6256 <eth >
iniquity <5771 <avon > [shall have] an end <7093 qets >,



26 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay

mitsnepheth >, and take <7311 ruwm > off the crown < 5850 <atarah

exalt <1361 gabahh > [him that is] low <8217 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> >
[more], until <5704 <ad > he come <0935 bow> > whose <0834 >aher

[him].



28. And thou, son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > , prophesy
<5012 naba> > and say <0559 >amar >, Thus < 3541 koh > saith
<0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD < 3069 Y@hovih >
concerning <0413 >el > the Ammonites <5984 < Ammowniy >, and
concerning <0413 >el > their reproach <2781 cherpah >; even say
<0559 >amar > thou, The sword <2719 chereb >, the sword <2719
chereb > [is] drawn <6605 pathach >: for the slaughter <2875
Tebach > [it is] furbished <4803 marat >, to consume < 0398 >akal

29 Whiles they see <2372 chazah > vanity <7723 shav> > unto
thee, whiles they divine <7080 qacam > a lie <3576 kazab > unto
thee, to bring <5414 nathan > thee upon the necks <6677 tsavva>r

have] an end <7093 qets >.



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 bara>

31 And I will pour <8210 shaphak > out mine indignation <2195
za<am > upon thee, I will blow <6315 puwach > against <5921 <al

deliver <5414 nathan > thee into the hand <3027 yad > of brutish
<1197 ba<ar > men <0582 >enowsh >, [and] skilful <2796 charash >
to destroy <4889 mashchiyth >.



32 Thou shalt be for fuel <0402 >oklah > to the fire <0784 >esh

the land <0776 >erets >; thou shalt be no <3808 lo> > [more]
remembered <2142 zakar >: for I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have
spoken <1696 dabar > [it].



Ezekiel 22



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



2 Now, thou son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, wilt thou
judge <8199 shaphat >, wilt thou judge <8199 shaphat > the
bloody <1818 dam > city <5892 <iyr >? yea, thou shalt shew <3045
yada< > her all <3605 kol > her abominations <8441 tow<ebah >.



3 Then say <0559 >amar > thou, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559

<5892 <iyr > sheddeth <8210 shaphak > blood < 1818 dam > in the
midst <8432 tavek > of it, that her time <6256 <eth > may come
<0935 bow> >, and maketh <6213 <asah > idols <1544 gilluwl >
against <5921 <al > herself to defile <2930 tame> > herself.



4 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 >
which <0834 >aher > thou hast made <6213 <asah > ; and thou hast
caused thy days <3117 yowm > to draw near <7126 qarab >, and art
come <0935 bow> > [even] unto thy years <8141 shaneh >:
therefore <3651 ken > have I made <5414 nathan > thee a reproach
<2781 cherpah > unto the heathen <1471 gowy >, and a mocking
<7048 qallacah > to all <3605 kol > countries < 0776 >erets >.



5 [Those that be] near <7138 qarowb >, and [those that be] far
<7350 rachowq > from thee, shall mock <7046 qalac > thee, [which
art] infamous [and] much <7227 rab > vexed <4103 m@huwmah >.



6 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 shaphak >
blood <1818 dam >.



7 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 >.



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



9 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

<anah > her that was set <5079 niddah > apart < 5079 niddah > for
pollution <2931 tame> >.



11 And one hath committed <6213 <asah > abomination < 8441
tow<ebah > with his neighbour's <7453 rea< > wife <0802 >ishshah

<2930 tame> > his daughter <3618 kallah > in law <3618 kallah >;
and another <0376 >iysh > in thee hath humbled <6031 <anah > his
sister <0269 >achowth >, his father's <1> daughter <1323 bath >.





12 In thee have they taken <3947 laqach > gifts <7810 shachad >
to shed <8210 shaphak > blood <1818 dam >; thou hast taken <3947
laqach > usury <5392 neshek > and increase <8635 tarbuwth >, and
thou hast greedily gained <1214 batsa< > of thy neighbours <7453
rea< > by extortion <6233 <osheq >, and hast forgotten <7911
shakach > me, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD
<3069 Y@hovih >.



13 Behold <2009 hinneh >, therefore I have smitten < 5221 nakah

<1215 betsa< > gain <1214 batsa< > which < 0834 >aher > thou hast
made <6213 <asah >, and at <5921 <al > thy blood <1818 dam >
which <0834 >aher > hath been <1961 hayah > in the midst <8432
tavek > of thee.



14 Can thine heart <3820 leb > endure <5975 <amad >, or can
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
<1471 gowy >, and disperse <2219 zarah > thee in the countries
<0776 >erets >, and will consume <8552 tamam > thy filthiness
<2932 tum>ah > out of thee.



16 And thou shalt take thine inheritance <2490 chalal > in
thyself in the sight <5869 <ayin > of the heathen < 1471 gowy >,
and thou shalt know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068
Y@hovah >.



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 bayith
> of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > is to me become <1961 hayah > dross
<5509 ciyg >: all <3605 kol > they [are] brass < 5178 n@chosheth

<5777 <owphereth >, in the midst <8432 tavek > of the furnace
<3564 kuwr >; they are [even] the 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
ciyg >, behold <2005 hen >, therefore <3651 ken > I will gather
<6908 qabats > you into <0413 >el > the midst < 8432 tavek > of
Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >.



20 [As] they gather <6910 q@butsah > silver <3701 keceph >, and
brass <5178 n@chosheth >, and iron <1270 barzel >, and lead
<5777 <owphereth >, and tin <0913 b@diyl >, into <0413 >el > the
midst <8432 tavek > of the furnace <3564 kuwr >, 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
midst <8432 tavek > of the furnace <3564 kuwr >, so <3651 ken >
shall ye be melted <5413 nathak > in the midst <8432 tavek >
thereof; and ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I the LORD <3068
Y@hovah > have poured <8210 shaphak > out my fury < 2534 chemah >
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 > upon in the
day <3117 yowm > of indignation <2195 za<am >.



25 [There is] a conspiracy <7195 qesher > of her prophets <5030
nabiy> > in the midst <8432 tavek > thereof, like a roaring
<7580 sha>ag > lion <0738 >ariy > ravening < 2963 taraph > the
prey <2964 tereph >; they have devoured <0398 >akal > souls
<5315 nephesh >; they have taken <3947 laqach > the 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
chol >, neither <3808 lo> > have they shewed <3045 yada< >
[difference] between <0996 beyn > the unclean <2931 tame> > and
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 kazab >
unto them, saying <0559 >amar >, Thus <3541 koh > 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 gazel >,
and have vexed <3238 yanah > the poor <6041 <aniy > and needy
<34>: yea, they have oppressed <6231 <ashaq > the 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 >,
and stand <5975 <amad > in the gap <6556 perets > before <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 kalah > them with
the fire <0784 >esh > of my wrath <5678 <ebrah > : their own way
<1870 derek > have I recompensed <5414 nathan > upon their heads
<7218 ro>sh >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord < 0136 >Adonay > GOD
<3069 Y@hovih >.



Ezekiel 23



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



2 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 >:



3 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 >.



4 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 >.



5 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 >,





6 [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 >.



7 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.



8 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.



9 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 > among
women <0802 >ishshah >; for they had executed <6213 <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 >
[her] neighbours <7138 qarowb >, captains <6346 pechah > 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> >,
[that] they [took] both <8147 sh@nayim > one <0259 > 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 <0804
>Ashshuwr > with them: all <3605 kol > of them desirable <2531
chemed > young <0970 bachuwr > men, captains <6346 pechah > and
rulers <5461 cagan >, great <7991 shaliysh > 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 > and helmet
<6959 qowba< > round <5439 cabiyb > about: and I 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 >: so that
thou shalt not lift <5375 nasa> > up thine eyes <5869 <ayin >
unto them, nor <3808 lo> > remember <2142 zakar > Egypt <4714
Mitsrayim > any more <5750 <owd >.



28 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136
>Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Behold <2005 hen >, I will
deliver <5414 nathan > thee into the hand <3027 yad > [of them]
whom <0834 >aher > thou hatest <8130 sane> >, into the hand
<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 kol > thy
labour <3018 y@giya< >, and shall leave <5800 < azab > thee naked
<5903 <eyrom > and bare <6181 <eryah >: and the nakedness <6172
<ervah > of thy whoredoms <2183 zanuwn > shall 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

sister's <0269 >achowth > cup <3563 kowc > deep <6013 <amoq >
and large <7342 rachab >: thou shalt be laughed <6712 ts@choq >
to scorn and had in derision <3932 la<ag >; it 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 sh@mamah

Samaria <8111 Shom@rown >.



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
shalal > me behind <0310 >achar > thy back <1458 gav >,
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

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 >.



Ezekiel 24



1. Again in the ninth <8671 t@shiy<iy > year <8141 shaneh >, in
the tenth <6224 <asiyriy > month <2320 chodesh >, in the tenth
<6218 <asowr > [day] of the month <2320 chodesh >, the word
<1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came < 1961 hayah >
unto me, saying <0559 >amar >,



2 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, write < 3789 kathab >
thee the name <8034 shem > of the day <3117 yowm >, [even] of
this <2088 zeh > same <6106 <etsem > day <3117 yowm >: the king
<4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > set <5564 camak > himself
against <0413 >el > Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > this <2088
zeh > same <6106 <etsem > day <3117 yowm >.



3 And utter <4911 mashal > a parable <4912 mashal > unto the
rebellious <4805 m@riy > house <1004 bayith >, and say <0559
>amar > unto them, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the 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:



4 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

5 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 >.



6 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 of
it! bring <3318 yatsa> > it out piece <5409 nethach > by piece
<5409 nethach >; let no <3808 lo> > lot <1486 gowral > fall
<5307 naphal > upon it.



7 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 >;



8 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 >.



9 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
the pile <4071 m@duwrah > for fire great <1431 gadal > .



10 Heap <7235 rabah > on wood <6086 <ets >, kindle <1814 dalaq

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 > of it may be
consumed <8552 tamam >.



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 zimmah

thou wast not purged <2891 taher >, thou shalt not be purged
<2891 taher > from thy filthiness <2932 tum>ah > any more <5750
<owd >, till <5704 <ad > I have caused my fury < 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< >, neither
<3808 lo> > will I spare <2347 chuwc >, neither <3808 lo> > will
I repent <5162 nacham >; according to thy ways <1870 derek >,
and according to thy doings <5949 <aliylah >, shall they judge
<8199 shaphat > thee, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay
> GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.



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 > of
thine eyes <5869 <ayin > with a stroke <4046 maggephah >: 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 feet
<7272 regel >, and cover <5844 <atah > not [thy] lips <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 >el-
leh > [things are] to us, that thou doest <6213 <asah > [so]?



20 Then I answered <0559 >amar > them, The word < 1697 dabar >
of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came <1961 hayah > unto me, 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 >, I will
profane <2490 chalal > my sanctuary <4720 miqdash >, 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 > by
the sword <2719 chereb >.



22 And ye shall do <6213 <asah > as I have done < 6213 <asah >:
ye shall not cover <5844 <atah > [your] lips <8222 sapham >, nor
<3808 lo> > eat <0398 >akal > the bread < 3899 lechem > 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 <0935
bow> >, ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the 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] ears <0241 >ozen >?



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
mowpheth > unto them; and they shall know <3045 yada< > that I
[am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.



Ezekiel 25



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



2 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, set < 7760 suwm > thy
face <6440 paniym > against <0413 >el > the Ammonites <5984
<Ammowniy >, and prophesy <5012 naba> > against <5921 <al > them;



3 And say <0559 >amar > unto the Ammonites <5984 < Ammowniy >,
Hear <8085 shama< > the word <1697 dabar > of the Lord <0136
>Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559
>amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Because
<3282 ya<an > thou saidst <0559 >amar >, Aha <0253 >ach >,
against <0413 >el > my sanctuary <4720 miqdash >, when <3588 kiy

land <0127 >adamah > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, when <3588 kiy

house <1004 bayith > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >, when <3588 kiy >
they went into captivity <1473 gowlah >;



4 Behold <2005 hen >, therefore <3651 ken > I will deliver
<5414 nathan > thee to the men <1121 ben > of the east <6924
qedem > for a possession <4181 mowrashah >, and they shall set
<3427 yashab > their palaces <2918 tiyrah > in thee, and make
<5414 nathan > their dwellings <4908 mishkan > in thee: they
shall eat <0398 >akal > thy fruit <6529 p@riy >, and they shall
drink <8354 shathah > thy milk <2461 chalab >.



5 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 [am] the LORD
<3068 Y@hovah >.



6 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 kol > thy
despite <7589 sh@>at > against <0413 >el > the land <0127
>adamah > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >;



7 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
heathen <1471 gowy >; and I will cut <3772 karath > thee off
from the people <5971 <am >, and I will cause thee to perish <6>
out of the countries <0776 >erets >: I will destroy < 8045 shamad
> thee; and thou shalt know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD
<3068 Y@hovah >.



8. Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay
> GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Because <3282 ya<an > that Moab <4124
Mow>ab > and Seir <8165 Se<iyr > do say <0559 >amar >, Behold
<2009 hinneh >, the house <1004 bayith > of Judah < 3063 Y@huwdah
> [is] like unto all <3605 kol > the heathen <1471 gowy >;



9 Therefore <3651 ken >, behold <2005 hen >, I will open <6605
pathach > the side <3802 katheph > of Moab <4124 Mow>ab > from
the cities <5892 <iyr >, from his cities <5892 < iyr > [which
are] on his frontiers <7097 qatseh >, the glory <6643 ts@biy >
of the country <0776 >erets >, Bethjeshimoth <1020 Beyth ha-
Y@shiy-mowth >, Baalmeon <1186 Ba<al M@<own >, and Kiriathaim
<7156 Qiryathayim >,



10 Unto the men <1121 ben > of the east <6924 qedem > with the
Ammonites <5984 <Ammowniy >, and will give <5414 nathan > them
in possession <4181 mowrashah >, that the Ammonites < 5984
<Ammowniy > may not be remembered <2142 zakar > among the
nations <1471 gowy >.



11 And I will execute <6213 <asah > judgments <8201 shephet >
upon Moab <4124 Mow>ab >; and they shall know <3045 yada< > that
I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.



12 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay

>Edom > hath dealt <6213 <asah > against the house <1004 bayith

and hath greatly offended <0816 >asham >, and revenged <5358
naqam > himself upon them;



13 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith < 0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; I will also
stretch <5186 natah > out mine hand <3027 yad > upon Edom <0123
>Edom >, and will cut <3772 karath > off man <0120 >adam > and
beast <0929 b@hemah > from it; and I will make <5414 nathan > it
desolate <2723 chorbah > from Teman <8487 Teyman >; and they of
Dedan <1719 D@dan > shall fall <5307 naphal > by the sword <2719
chereb >.



14 And I will lay <5414 nathan > my vengeance <5360 n@qamah >
upon Edom <0123 >Edom > by the hand <3027 yad > of my people
<5971 <am > Israel <3478 Yisra>el >: and they shall do <6213
<asah > in Edom <0123 >Edom > according to mine anger <0639 >aph
> and according to my fury <2534 chemah >; and they shall know
<3045 yada< > my vengeance <5360 n@qamah >, 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 >; Because <3282 ya<an > the Philistines
<6430 P@lishtiy > have dealt <6213 <asah > by revenge <5360
n@qamah >, and have taken vengeance <5359 naqam > with a
despiteful <7589 sh@>at > heart <5315 nephesh >, to destroy
<4889 mashchiyth > [it] for the old <5769 <owlam > hatred <0342
>eybah >;



16 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith < 0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Behold <2005 hen >,
I will stretch <5186 natah > out mine hand <3027 yad > upon the
Philistines <6430 P@lishtiy >, and I will cut <3772 karath > off
the Cherethims <3774 K@rethiy >, and destroy <9> the remnant
<7611 sh@>eriyth > of the sea <3220 yam > coast <2348 chowph >.



17 And I will execute <6213 <asah > great <1419 gadowl >
vengeance <5360 n@qamah > upon them with furious <2534 chemah >
rebukes <8433 towkechah >; and they shall know <3045 yada< >
that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, when I shall lay < 5414
nathan > my vengeance <5360 n@qamah > upon them.



Ezekiel 26



1. 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 >,



2 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 >:



3 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith < 0559 >amar >
the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Behold <2005 hen >,
I [am] against <5921 <al > thee, O Tyrus <6865 Tsor >, and will
cause many <7227 rab > nations <1471 gowy > to come <5927 <alah
> up against <5921 <al > thee, as the sea <3220 yam > causeth
his waves <1530 gal > to come <5927 <alah > up.



4 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< >.



5 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 > to the nations <1471
gowy >.



6 And her daughters <1121 ben > which <0834 >aher > [are] 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 >.



7 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
<6828 tsaphown >, with horses <5483 cuwc >, and with chariots
<7393 rekeb >, and with horsemen <6571 parash >, and companies
<6951 qahal >, and much <7227 rab > people <5971 <am >.



8 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 >
thee, and cast <8210 shaphak > a mount <5550 col@lah > against
<5921 <al > thee, and lift <6965 quwm > up the buckler <6793
tsinnah > against <5921 <al > thee.



9 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 <am
> by the sword <2719 chereb >, and thy strong <5797 <oz >
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 >eyk
> art thou destroyed <6>, [that wast] inhabited <3427 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 >
thee a desolate <2717 charab > city <5892 <iyr >, like the
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
