: 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

astonished <8074 shamem > among <8432 tavek > them seven <7651

 : 16 .  And it came <1961 hayah > to pass at the end <7097

qatseh > of seven <7651 sheba< > days <3117 yowm > ,  that the

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

 : 17 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > ,  I have made <5414

shama< > the word <1697 dabar > at my mouth <6310 peh > ,  and

give them warning <2094 zahar > from me .


 : 18 When I say <0559 >amar > unto the wicked <7563 rasha< > ,  

Thou shalt surely die <4191 muwth > ;  and thou givest him not

warning <2094 zahar > ,  nor <3808 lo> > speakest <1696 dabar >

to warn <2094 zahar > the wicked <7563 rasha< > from his wicked

<7563 rasha< > way <1870 derek > ,  to save <2421 chayah > his

life <2421 chayah > ;  the same <1931 huw> > wicked <7563 rasha<

thine hand <3027 yad > .


 : 19 Yet if <3588 kiy > thou warn <2094 zahar > the wicked

<7563 rasha< > ,  and he turn <7725 shuwb > not from his

wickedness <7562 resha< > ,  nor from his wicked <7563 rasha< >

<5771 <avon > ;  but thou hast delivered <5337 natsal > thy soul

<5315 nephesh > .


 : 20 Again <7725 shuwb > ,  When a righteous <6662 tsaddiyq >  

[ man ]  doth turn <7725 shuwb > from his righteousness <6664

and I lay <5414 nathan > a stumblingblock <4383 mikshowl >

before <6440 paniym > him ,  he shall die <4191 muwth > :

because <3588 kiy > thou hast not given him warning <2094 zahar

and his righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > which <0834 >aher > he

but his blood <1818 dam > will I require <1245 baqash > at thine

 : 21 Nevertheless if <3588 kiy > thou warn <2094 zahar > the

righteous <6662 tsaddiyq >  [ man ]  ,  that the righteous <6662

 : 22 .  And the hand <3027 yad > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

was there <8033 sham > upon me ;  and he said <0559 >amar > unto

me ,  Arise <6965 quwm > ,  go <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa>

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


 : 23 Then I arose <6965 quwm > ,  and went <3318 yatsa> > forth

<3318 yatsa> > into <0413 >el > the plain <1237 biq<ah > : and ,

 behold <2009 hinneh > ,  the glory <3519 kabowd > of the LORD

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

Go <0935 bow> > ,  shut <5462 cagar > thyself within <8432 tavek

 : 25 But thou ,  O son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > ,  

behold <2009 hinneh > ,  they shall put <5414 nathan > bands

<5688 <aboth > upon thee ,  and shall bind <0631 >acar > thee

 : 26 And I will make thy tongue <3956 lashown > cleave <1692

that thou shalt be dumb <0481 >alam > ,  and shalt not be to

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


 : 27 But when I speak <1696 dabar > with thee ,  I will open

<6605 pathach > thy mouth <6310 peh > ,  and thou shalt say

<0559 >amar > unto them ,  Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >

the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ;  He that heareth

<8085 shama< > ,  let him hear <8085 shama< > ;  and he that

forbeareth <2310 chadel > ,  let him forbear <2308 chadal > :

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

 : 9 And I will do <6213 <asah > in thee that which <0834 >aher

 : 11 Wherefore <3651 ken > ,   [ as ]  I live <2416 chay > ,  

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

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

 : 13 Thus shall mine anger <0639 >aph > be accomplished <3615

 : 15 So it shall be a reproach <2781 cherpah > and a taunt

 : 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 > the mountains <2022

har > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ,  and prophesy <5012 naba> >

against <0413 >el > them ,


 : 3 And say <0559 >amar > ,  Ye mountains <2022 har > of Israel

<3478 Yisra>el > ,  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 > to the mountains <2022 har > ,  and to the hills <1389

gib<ah > ,  to the rivers <0650 >aphiyq > ,  and to the valleys

<1516 gay> > ;  Behold <2005 hen > ,  I ,   [ even ]  I ,  will

bring <0935 bow> > a sword <2719 chereb > upon you ,  and I will

destroy <6> your high <1116 bamah > places .


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

shamem > ,  and your images <2553 chamman > shall be broken

<7665 shabar > : and I will cast <5307 naphal > down <5307

naphal > 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

<2219 zarah > your bones <6106 <etsem > round <5439 cabiyb >

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< > ,  and your works <4639 ma<aseh > may

be abolished <4229 machah > .


 : 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 <ets > ,  and under <8478 tachath > every

<3605 kol > thick <5687 <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 > ;  An end <7093 qets > ,  the end <7093 qets > is

come <0935 bow> > upon the four <0702 >arba< > corners <3671

kanaph > of the 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 > is come <0935 bow> > : it watcheth <6974 quwts > for thee

;  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

> and thine abominations <8441 tow<ebah >  [ that ]  are in the

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 > is gone <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > ;  the

rod <4294 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 hamown > ,  nor <3808 lo> > of any <1991 hem >

of theirs <1992 hem > : neither <3808 lo> >  [ shall there be ]  

wailing <5089 noahh > for them .


 : 12 The time <6256 <eth > is come <0935 bow> > ,  the day

<3117 yowm > draweth near <5060 naga< > : let not the buyer

<7069 qanah > rejoice <8055 samach > ,  nor <0408 >al > the

seller <4376 makar > mourn <56> : for wrath <2740 charown >  [

is ]  upon all <3605 kol > the multitude <1995 hamown > thereof .

 


 : 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 hamown > thereof ,   [ which ]  shall not return <7725

shuwb > ;  neither <3808 lo> > shall any <0376 >iysh >

strengthen <2388 chazaq > himself in the iniquity <5771 <avon >

of his life <2416 chay > .


 : 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>

<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 > ,  he set <7760 suwm > it in majesty <1347 ga>own > :

but they made <6213 <asah > the images <6754 tselem > of their

abominations <8441 tow<ebah >  [ and ]  of their detestable

<8251 shiqquwts > things therein : therefore have I set <5414

nathan > it far <5079 niddah > from them .


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

> 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 male> > of violence <2555 chamac > .


 : 24 Wherefore I will bring <0935 bow> > the worst <7451 ra< >

of the heathen <1471 gowy > ,  and they shall possess <3423

yarash > their houses <1004 bayith > : I will also make the pomp

<1347 ga>own > of the strong <5794 <az > to cease <7673 shabath

> ;  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 <2320 chodesh > ,   [ as ]  I sat <3427 yashab > in mine

house <1004 bayith > ,  and the elders <2205 zaqen > of Judah

<3063 Y@huwdah > sat <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 >esh > : from the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of his

loins <4975 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

<0872 b@>ah > .


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

mah > they do <6213 <asah > ?   [ even ]  the great <1419 gadowl

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

<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

 : 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

<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

 : 14 Then he brought <0935 bow> > me to the door <6607 pethach

there <8033 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

[ and ]  thou shalt see <7200 ra>ah > greater <1419 gadowl >

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

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  between <0996 beyn > the porch <0197

<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

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

 : Ezekiel 9


 : 1 .  He cried <7121 qara> > also in mine ears <0241 >ozen >

with a loud <1419 gadowl > voice <6963 qowl > ,  saying <0559

 : 2 And ,  behold <2009 hinneh > ,  six <8337 shesh > men <0582

 : 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> > to the man <0376 >iysh > clothed <3847 labash >

with linen <0906 bad > ,  which <0834 >aher >  [ had ]  the

writer s <5608 caphar > inkhorn <7083 qeceth > by his side <4975

 : 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

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

<0310 >achar > him through the city <5892 <iyr > ,  and smite

<5221 nakah > : let not your eye <5869 <ayin > spare <2347 chuwc

 : 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

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>

<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

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

 : 11 And ,  behold <2009 hinneh > ,  the man <0376 >iysh >

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

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

<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

cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > unto the fire <0784 >esh > that  [ was

<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

<3742 k@ruwb > : and the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of the wheels

<0212 >owphan >  [ was ]  as the colour <5869 <ayin > of a beryl

<8658 tarshiysh > stone <68> .


 : 10 And  [ as for ]  their appearances <4758 mar>eh > ,  they

four <0702 >arba< > had <1961 hayah > one <0259 >echad >

likeness <1823 d@muwth > ,  as if <0834 >aher > a wheel <0212

wheel <0212 >owphan > .


 : 11 When they went <3212 yalak > ,  they went <3212 yalak >

upon their four <0702 >arba< > sides <7253 reba< > ;  they

turned <5437 cabab > not as they went <3212 yalak > ,  but to

the place <4725 maqowm > whither <0834 >aher > the head <7218

ro>sh > looked <6437 panah > they followed it ;  they turned

<5437 cabab > not as they went <3212 yalak > .


 : 12 And their whole <3605 kol > body <1320 basar > ,  and

their backs <1354 gab > ,  and their hands <3027 yad > ,  and

their wings <3671 kanaph > ,  and the wheels <0212 >owphan > ,  

[ were ]  full <4392 male> > of eyes <5869 <ayin > round <5439

cabiyb > about ,   [ even ]  the wheels <0212 >owphan > that

they four <0702 >arba< > had .


 : 13 As for the wheels <0212 >owphan > ,  it was cried <7121

qara> > unto them in my hearing <0241 >ozen > ,  O wheel <1534

galgal > .


 : 14 And every one <0259 >echad > had four <0702 >arba< > faces

<6440 paniym > : the first <0259 >echad > face <6440 paniym >  [

was ]  the face <6440 paniym > of a cherub <3742 k@ruwb > ,  and

the second <8145 sheniy > face <6440 paniym >  [ was ]  the face

<6440 paniym > of a man <0120 >adam > ,  and the third <7992

sh@liyshiy > the face <6440 paniym > of a lion <0738 >ariy > ,  

and the fourth <7243 r@biy<iy > the face <6440 paniym > of an

eagle <5404 nesher > .


 : 15 And the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > were lifted <7426 ramam >

up .  This <1931 huw> >  [ is ]  the living <2416 chay >

creature <2416 chay > that I saw <7200 ra>ah > by the river

<5104 nahar > of Chebar <3529 K@bar > .


 : 16 And when the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > went <3212 yalak > ,

 the wheels <0212 >owphan > went <3212 yalak > by them : and

when the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > lifted <5375 nasa> > up their

wings <3671 kanaph > to mount <7311 ruwm > up from the earth

<0776 >erets > ,  the same <1992 hem > wheels <0212 >owphan >

also <1571 gam > turned <5437 cabab > not from beside <0681

 : 17 When they stood <5975 <amad > ,   [ these ]  stood <5975

<amad > ;  and when they were lifted <7311 ruwm > up ,   [ these

]  lifted <7426 ramam > up themselves  [ also ]  : for the

spirit <7307 ruwach > of the living <2416 chay > creature <2416

 : 18 Then the glory <3519 kabowd > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

departed <3318 yatsa> > from off <5921 <al > the threshold <4670

miphtan > of the house <1004 bayith > ,  and stood <5975 <amad >

 : 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  [

<3045 yada< > that they  [ were ]  the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > .

 


 : 21 Every one <0259 >echad > had four <0702 >arba< > faces

<6440 paniym > apiece <0259 >echad > ,  and every one <0259

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

 : Ezekiel 11


 : 1 .  Moreover the spirit <7307 ruwach > lifted <5375 nasa> >

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 > that devise <2803 chashab > mischief <0205 >aven

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

<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

for I know <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

 : 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

 : 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

 : 13 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass ,  when I prophesied

<5012 naba> > ,  that Pelatiah <6410 P@latyah > the son <1121

<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 >

little <4592 m@<at > sanctuary <4720 miqdash > in the countries

 : 17 Therefore <3651 ken > say <0559 >amar > ,  Thus <3541 koh

 : 18 And they shall come <0935 bow> > thither <8033 sham > ,

 : 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

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 >

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>

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

 : 24 Afterwards the spirit <7307 ruwach > took <5375 nasa> > me

up ,  and brought <0935 bow> > me in a vision <4758 mar>eh > by

the Spirit <7307 ruwach > of God <0430 >elohiym > into Chaldea

the vision <4758 mar>eh > that I had seen <7200 ra>ah > went

<5927 <alah > up from me .


 : 25 Then I spake <1696 dabar > unto them of the captivity

<1473 gowlah > all <3605 kol > the things <1697 dabar > that the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > had shewed <7200 ra>ah > me .


 : Ezekiel 12


 : 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

they have ears <0241 >ozen > to hear <8085 shama< > ,  and hear

<8085 shama< > not : for they  [ are ]  a rebellious <4805 m@riy

 : 3 Therefore ,  thou son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > ,  

prepare <6213 <asah > thee stuff <3627 k@liy > for removing

<1473 gowlah > ,  and remove <1540 galah > by day <3119 yowmam >

in their sight <5869 <ayin > ;  and thou shalt remove <1540

galah > from thy place <4725 maqowm > to another <0312 >acher >

place <4725 maqowm > in their sight <5869 <ayin > : it may be

they will consider <7200 ra>ah > ,  though <3518 kabah > they  [

be ]  a rebellious <4805 m@riy > house <1004 bayith > .


 : 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

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

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

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

with  [ his ]  eyes <5869 <ayin > .


 : 13 My net <7568 resheth > also will I spread <6566 paras >

upon him ,  and he shall be taken <8610 taphas > in my snare

<4686 matsuwd > : and I will bring <0935 bow> > him to Babylon

<0894 Babel >  [ to ]  the land <0776 >erets > of the Chaldeans

<3779 Kasday > ;  yet shall he not see <7200 ra>ah > it ,  

though he shall die <4191 muwth > there <8033 sham > .


 : 14 And I will scatter <2219 zarah > toward every <3605 kol >

wind <7307 ruwach > all <3605 kol > that  [ are ]  about <5439

cabiyb > him to help <5828 <ezer > him ,  and all <3605 kol >

his bands <0102 >aggaph > ;  and I will draw <7324 ruwq > out

the sword <2719 chereb > after <0310 >achar > them .


 : 15 And they shall know <3045 yada< > that I  [ am ]  the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah > ,  when I shall scatter <6327 puwts > them among

the nations <1471 gowy > ,  and disperse <2219 zarah > them in

the countries <0776 >erets > .


 : 16 But I will leave <3498 yathar > a few <4557 micpar > men

<0582 >enowsh > of them from the sword <2719 chereb > ,  from

the famine <7458 ra<ab > ,  and from the pestilence <1698 deber

abominations <8441 tow<ebah > among the heathen <1471 gowy >

whither they come <0935 bow> > ;  and they shall know <3045

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


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

Y@hovah > came <1961 hayah > to me ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,


 : 18 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > ,  eat <0398 >akal >

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

<2555 chamac > of all <3605 kol > them that dwell <3427 yashab >

 : 20 And the cities <5892 <iyr > that are inhabited <3427

 : 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

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


 : 23 Tell <0559 >amar > them therefore <3651 ken > ,  Thus

unto them ,  The days <3117 yowm > are at <7196 qishshur > hand

<7126 qarab > ,  and the effect <1697 dabar > of every <3605 kol

 : 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

 : 26 Again the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

nabal > prophets <5030 nabiy> > ,  that follow their own spirit

 : 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

 : 6 They have seen <2372 chazah > vanity <7723 shav> > and

lying <3577 kazab > divination <7081 qecem > ,  saying <0559

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath not sent <7971 shalach > them :

and they have made  [ others ]  to hope <3176 yachal > that they

would confirm <6965 quwm > the word <1697 dabar > .


 : 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

;  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

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

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

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

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

>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

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

stormy <5591 ca<ar > wind <7307 ruwach > shall rend <1234 baqa<

 : 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

<0639 >aph > ,  and great <0417 >elgabiysh > hailstones in  [ my

 : 14 So will I break <2040 harac > down <2040 harac > the wall

<7023 qiyr > that ye have daubed <2902 tuwach > with untempered

<8602 taphel >  [ morter ]  ,  and bring <5060 naga< > it down

to the ground <0776 >erets > ,  so that the foundation <3247

shall fall <5307 naphal > ,  and ye shall be consumed <3615

kalah > in the midst <8432 tavek > thereof : and ye shall know

<3045 yada< > that I  [ am ]  the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .


 : 15 Thus will I accomplish <3615 kalah > my wrath <2534 chemah

<2902 tuwach > it with untempered <8602 taphel >  [ morter ]  ,  

and will say <0559 >amar > unto you ,  The wall <7023 qiyr >  [

is ]  no <0369 >ayin >  [ more ]  ,  neither <0369 >ayin > they

 : 18 And say <0559 >amar > ,  Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559

<2421 chayah > the souls <5315 nephesh > alive <2421 chayah >  [

 : 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

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

<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

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .


 : 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

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

 : 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

 : 3 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > ,  these <0428 >el -

 : 4 Therefore <3651 ken > speak <1696 dabar > unto them ,  and

according to the multitude <7230 rob > of his idols <1544

 : 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

 : 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

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

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

<4383 mikshowl > of his iniquity <5771 <avon > before <5227

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

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

destroy <8045 shamad > him from the midst <8432 tavek > of my

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

<avon > of their iniquity <5771 <avon > : the punishment <5771

<avon > of the prophet <5030 nabiy> > shall be even as the

punishment <5771 <avon > of him that seeketh <1875 darash >  [

 : 11 That the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >

may go <8582 ta<ah > no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > astray

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


 : 2 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > ,  cause Jerusalem

 : 3 And say <0559 >amar > ,  Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar

<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

 : 5 None <3808 lo> > eye <5869 <ayin > pitied <2347 chuwc >

thee ,  to do <6213 <asah > any <0259 >echad > of these <0428

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 > thee polluted <0947 buwc > in thine own blood <1818 dam

>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

thou hast increased <7235 rabah > and waxen great <1431 gadal > ,

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 > uponthee ,  behold <2009 hinneh > ,  thy time <6256 <eth

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

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 > from thee ,  and I anointed <5480 cuwk > thee with

oil <8081 shemen > .


 : 10 I clothed <3847 labash > thee also with broidered <7553

riqmah > work <7553 riqmah > ,  and shod <5274 na<al > thee with

badgers <8476 tachash >  skin ,  and I girded <2280 chabash >

thee about with fine linen <8336 shesh > ,  and I covered <3680

kacah > thee with silk <4897 meshiy > .


 : 11 I decked <5710 <adah > thee also with ornaments <5716

<adiy > ,  and I put <5414 nathan > bracelets <6781 tsamiyd >

upon thy hands <3027 yad > ,  and a chain <7242 rabiyd > on

<5921 <al > thy neck <1627 garown > .


 : 12 And I put <5414 nathan > a jewel <5141 nexem > on <5921

in thine ears <0241 >ozen > ,  and a beautiful <8597 tiph>arah >

crown <5850 <atarah > upon thine head <7218 ro>sh > .


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

[ was of ]  fine linen <8336 shesh > ,  and silk <4897 meshiy > ,

eat <0398 >akal > fine flour <5560 coleth > ,  and honey <1706

d@bash > ,  and oil <8081 shemen > : and thou wast exceeding

<3966 m@<od > beautiful <3303 yapheh > ,  and thou didst prosper

<6743 tsalach > into a kingdom <4410 m@luwkah > .


 : 14 And thy renown <8034 shem > went <3318 yatsa> > forth

<3318 yatsa> > among the heathen <1471 gowy > for thy beauty

<3308 yophiy > : for it  [ was ]  perfect <3632 kaliyl > through

my comeliness <1926 hadar > ,  which <0834 >aher > I had put

<7760 suwm > upon thee ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136

 : 15 .  But thou didst trust <0982 batach > in thine own beauty

<3308 yophiy > ,  and playedst the harlot <2181 zanah > because

<5921 <al > of thy renown <8034 shem > ,  and pouredst <8210

shaphak > out thy fornications <8457 taznuwth > on every <3605

kol > one that passed <5674 <abar > by ;  his it was .


 : 16 And of thy garments <0899 beged > thou didst take <3947

laqach > ,  and deckedst <6213 <asah > thy high <1116 bamah >

places with divers <2921 tala> > colours <2921 tala> > ,  and

playedst the harlot <2181 zanah > thereupon :  [ the like things

]  shall not come <0935 bow> > ,  neither <3808 lo> > shall it

be  [ so ]  .


 : 17 Thou hast also taken <3947 laqach > thy fair <8597

tiph>arah > jewels <3627 k@liy > of my gold <2091 zahab > and of

my silver <3701 keceph > ,  which <0834 >aher > I had given

<5414 nathan > thee ,  and madest <6213 <asah > to thyself

images <6754 tselem > of men <2145 zakar > ,  and didst commit

<2181 zanah > whoredom <2181 zanah > with them ,


 : 18 And tookest <3947 laqach > thy broidered <7553 riqmah >

garments <0899 beged > ,  and coveredst them : and thou hast set

<5414 nathan > mine oil <8081 shemen > and mine incense <7004

q@toreth > before <6440 paniym > them .


 : 19 My meat <3899 lechem > also which <0834 >aher > I gave

<5414 nathan > thee ,  fine flour <5560 coleth > ,  and oil

<8081 shemen > ,  and honey <1706 d@bash > ,   [ wherewith ]  I

fed <0398 >akal > thee ,  thou hast even set <5414 nathan > it

before <6440 paniym > them for a sweet <5207 nichowach > savour

<7381 reyach > : and  [ thus ]  it was ,  saith <5002 n@>um >

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


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

borne <3205 yalad > unto me ,  and these hast thou sacrificed

<2076 zabach > unto them to be devoured <0398 >akal > .   [ Is

this ]  of thy whoredoms <8457 taznuwth > a small <4592 m@<at >

matter ,


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

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


 : 22 And in all <3605 kol > thine abominations <8441 tow<ebah >

and thy whoredoms <8457 taznuwth > thou hast not remembered

<2142 zakar > the days <3117 yowm > of thy youth <5271 na<uwr > ,

  when thou wast <1961 hayah > naked <5903 <eyrom > and bare

<6181 <eryah > ,   [ and ]  wast <1961 hayah > polluted <0947

buwc > in thy blood <1818 dam > .


 : 23 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass after <0310 >achar > all

<3605 kol > thy wickedness <7451 ra< > ,   ( woe ,  woe <0188

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

 : 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 >

 : 26 Thou hast also committed <2181 zanah > fornication <2181

<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 >  [

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

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

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

 : 33 They give <5414 nathan > gifts <5078 nedeh > to all <3605

 : 34 And the contrary <2016 hephek > is in thee from  [ other ]

whereas none <3808 lo> > followeth <0310 >achar > thee to commit

reward <0868 >ethnan > is given <5414 nathan > unto thee ,  

therefore thou art contrary <2016 hephek > .


 : 35 .  Wherefore <3651 ken > ,  O harlot <2181 zanah > ,  hear

<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

 : 39 And I will also give <5414 nathan > thee into their hand

<3027 yad > ,  and they shall throw <2040 harac > down <2040

 : 40 They shall also bring <5927 <alah > up a company <6951

 : 41 And they shall burn <8313 saraph > thine houses <1004

judgments <8201 shephet > upon thee in the sight <5869 <ayin >

 : 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

<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

 : 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 thy captives <7628 sh@biy > in the

 : 55 When thy sisters <0269 >achowth > ,  Sodom <5467 C@dom >

 : 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

receive <3947 laqach > thy sisters <0269 >achowth > ,  thine

 : 4 He cropped <6998 qataph > off the top <7218 ro>sh > of his

;  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

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

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

 : 9 Say <0559 >amar > thou ,  Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559

 : 10 Yea ,  behold <2009 hinneh > ,   [ being ]  planted <8362

[ but ]  that by keeping <8104 shamar > of his covenant <1285

 : 15 But he rebelled <4775 marad > against him in sending <7971

Mitsrayim > ,  that they might give <5414 nathan > him horses

trespassed <4604 ma<al > against me .


 : 21 And all <3605 kol > his fugitives <4015 mibrach > with all

 : 18  [ As for ]  his father <1> ,  because <3588 kiy > he

 : 19 Yet say <0559 >amar > ye ,  Why <4069 madduwa< > ?  doth

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

 : 20 The soul <5315 nephesh > that sinneth <2398 chata> > ,  it

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

committeth <6213 <asah > iniquity <5766 <evel > ,   [ and ]

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

 : 25 Yet ye say <0559 >amar > ,  The way <1870 derek > of the

<3478 Yisra>el > ;  Is not my way <1870 derek > equal <8505

 : 26 When a righteous <6662 tsaddiyq >  [ man ]  turneth <7725

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

 : 28 Because he considereth <7200 ra>ah > ,  and turneth <7725

 : 29 Yet saith <0559 >amar > the house <1004 bayith > of Israel

 : 30 .  Therefore <3651 ken > I will judge <8199 shaphat > you ,

 : 32 For I have no <3808 lo> > pleasure <2654 chaphets > in the

 : Ezekiel 19


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

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

 : 3 And she brought <5927 <alah > up one <0259 >echad > of her

whelps <1482guwr > : it became <1961 hayah > a young <3715

k@phiyr > lion <3715 k@phiyr > ,  and it learned <3925 lamad >

to catch <2963 taraph > the prey <2964 tereph > ;  it devoured

<0398 >akal > men <0120 >adam > .


 : 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

then she took <3947 laqach > another <0259 >echad > of her

 : 6 And he went <1980 halak > up and down among <8432 tavek >

the lions <0738 >ariy > ,  he became <1961 hayah > a young <3715

catch <2963 taraph > the prey <2964 tereph > ,   [ and ]  

devoured <0398 >akal > men <0120 >adam > .


 : 7 And he knew <3045 yada< > their desolate <0490 >almanah >

palaces ,  and he laid waste <2717 charab > their cities <5892

 : 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

 : 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>

 : 10 .  Thy mother <0517 >em >  [ is ]  like a vine <1612

the waters <4325 mayim > : she was fruitful <6509 parah > and

full of branches <6058 <aneph > by reason of many <7227 rab >

 : 12 But she was plucked <5428 nathash > up in fury <2534

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

 : 8 But they rebelled <4784 marah > against me ,  and would

<14> not hearken <8085 shama< > unto me : they did not every man

 : 10 .  Wherefore I caused them to go <3318 yatsa> > forth

<3318 yatsa> > out of the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714

 : 13 But the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >

 : 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 > them ;


 : 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

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

>amar > ,  I would pour <8210 shaphak > out my fury <2534 chemah

against them in the wilderness <4057 midbar > .


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

<4616 ma<an > ,  that it should not be polluted <2490 chalal >

in the sight <5869 <ayin > of the heathen <1471 gowy > ,  in

whose <0834 >aher > sight <5869 <ayin > I brought <3318 yatsa> >

them forth <3318 yatsa> > .


 : 23 I lifted <5375 nasa> > up mine hand <3027 yad > unto them

also <1571 gam > in the wilderness <4057 midbar > ,  that I

would scatter <6327 puwts > them among the heathen <1471 gowy > ,

  and disperse <2219 zarah > them through the countries <0776

>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

offered <2076 zabach > there <8033 sham > their sacrifices <2077

zebach > ,  and there <8033 sham > they presented <5414 nathan >

the provocation <3708 ka<ac > of their offering <7133 qorban > :

there <8033 sham > also they made <7760 suwm > their sweet <5207

nichowach > savour <7381 reyach > ,  and poured <5258 nacak >

out there <8033 sham > their drink <5262 necek > offerings .


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

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

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

Yisra>el > ?   [ As ]  I live <2416 chay > ,  saith <5002 n@>um

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 > ,  We will be as the heathen <1471 gowy > ,  as the

families <4940 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

 : 37 And I will cause you to pass <5674 <abar > under <8478

tachath > the rod <7626 shebet > ,  and I will bring <0935 bow>

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>

maguwr > ,  and they shall not enter <0935 bow> > into <0413 >el

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 > ,  thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord

<0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ;  Go <3212 yalak > ye ,  

serve <5647 <abad > ye every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > his

shem > no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > with your gifts <4979

mattanah > ,  and with your 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 >

GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ,  there <8033 sham > shall all <3605 kol >

the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ,  all <3605

me : there <8033 sham > will I accept <7521 ratsah > them ,  and

there <8033 sham > will I require <1875 darash > your offerings

<8641 t@ruwmah > ,  and the firstfruits <7225 re>shiyth > of

your oblations <4864 mas>eth > ,  with all <3605 kol > your holy

things .


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

nichowach > savour <7381 reyach > ,  when I bring <3318 yatsa> >

you out from the people <5971 <am > ,  and gather <6908 qabats >

you out of the countries <0776 >erets > wherein ye have been

scattered <6327 puwts > ;  and I will be sanctified <6942 qadash

 : 42 And ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I  [ am ]  the LORD

<0413 >el > the land <0127 >adamah > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ,

  into <0413 >el > the country <0776 >erets >  [ for ]  the

which <0834 >aher > I lifted <5375 nasa> > up mine hand <3027

yad > to give <5414 nathan > it to your fathers <1> .


 : 43 And there <8033 sham > shall ye remember <2142 zakar >

your ways <1870 derek > ,  and all <3605 kol > your doings <5949

<aliylah > ,  wherein <0834 >aher > ye have been defiled <2930

own sight <6440 paniym > for all <3605 kol > your evils <7451

ra< > that ye have committed <6213 <asah > .


 : 44 And ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I  [ am ]  the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah > ,  when <3588 kiy > I have wrought <6213 <asah >

with you for my name s <8034 shem > sake <4616 ma<an > ,  not

according to your wicked <7451 ra< > ways <1870 derek > ,  nor

according to your corrupt <7843 shachath > doings <5949 <aliylah

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

.


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

Y@hovah > came <1961 hayah > unto me ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,


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

thy face <6440 paniym > toward <1870 derek > the south <8486

teyman > ,  and drop <5197 nataph >  [ thy word ]  toward <0413

against <0413 >el > the forest <3293 ya<ar > of the south <5045

negeb > field <7704 sadeh > ;


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

south <5045 negeb > ,  Hear <8085 shama< > the word <1697 dabar

Doth he not speak <4911 mashal > parables <4912 mashal > ?


 : 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

<5012 naba> > against <0413 >el > the land <0127 >adamah > of

Israel <3478 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

 : 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

 : 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

shalt answer <0559 >amar > ,  For the tidings <8052 sh@muw<ah > ;

  because <3588 kiy > it cometh <0935 bow> > : and every <3605

 : 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

 : 10 It is sharpened <2300 chadad > to make a sore slaughter

<2873 tabach > ;  it is furbished <4803 marat > that it may

glitter <1300 baraq > : should we then <0176 >ow > make mirth

<7797 suws > ?  it contemneth <3988 ma>ac > the rod <7626 shebet

 : 11 And he hath given <5414 nathan > it to be furbished <4803

marat > ,  that it may be handled : this <1931 huw> > sword

<2719 chereb > is sharpened <2300 chadad > ,  and it is

furbished <4803 marat > ,  to give <5414 nathan > it into the

hand <3027 yad > of the slayer <2026 harag > .


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

 : 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

 : 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

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

 : 16 Go <0258 >achad > thee one way or other ,   [ either ]  on

 : 17 I will also <1571 gam > smite <5221 nakah > mine hands

to rest <5117 nuwach > : I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have said

<1696 dabar >  [ it ]  .

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

 : 20 Appoint <7760 suwm > a way <1870 derek > ,  that the sword

of the Ammonites <5984 <Ammowniy > ,  and to Judah <3063

Y@huwdah > in Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > the defenced <1219

 : 21 For the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > stood

<5975 <amad > at <0413 >el > the parting <0517 >em > of the way

<1870 derek > ,  at the head <7218 ro>sh > of the two <8147

sh@nayim > ways <1870 derek > ,  to use <7080 qacam > divination

<7081 qecem > : he made  [ his ]  arrows <2671 chets > bright

<7043 qalal > ,  he consulted <7592 sha>al > with images <8655

t@raphiym > ,  he looked <7200 ra>ah > in the liver <3516 kabed

 : 22 At his right <3225 yamiyn > hand <3225 yamiyn > was the

divination <7081 qecem > for Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,  

to appoint <7760 suwm > captains <3733 kar > ,  to open <6605

pathach > the mouth <6310 peh > in the slaughter <7524 retsach >

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

  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

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

prophesy <5012 naba> > and say <0559 >amar > ,  Thus <3541 koh >

to consume <0398 >akal > because <4616 ma<an > of the glittering

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

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

 : 31 And I will pour <8210 shaphak > out mine indignation <2195

brutish <1197 ba<ar > men <0582 >enowsh > ,   [ and ]  skilful

 : 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

the bloody <1818 dam > city <5892 <iyr > ?  yea ,  thou shalt

shew <3045 yada< > her all <3605 kol > her abominations <8441

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

 : 4 Thou art become <0816 >asham > guilty <0816 >asham > in thy

reproach <2781 cherpah > unto the heathen <1471 gowy > ,  and a

mocking <7048 qallacah > to all <3605 kol > countries <0776

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

 : 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

 : 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

pollution <2931 tame> > .


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

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

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

 : 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

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

 : 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

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

the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ;  Because <3282

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

  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

 : 21 Yea ,  I will gather <3664 kanac > you ,  and blow <5301

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

upon you .


 : 23 .  And the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

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


 : 24 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > ,  say <0559 >amar >

cleansed <2891 taher > ,  nor <3808 lo> > rained <1656 goshem >

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

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

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 >

<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

 : 29 The people <5971 <am > of the land <0776 >erets > have

used oppression <6233 <osheq > ,  and exercised robbery <1498

stranger <1616 ger > wrongfully .


 : 30 And I sought <1245 baqash > for a man <0376 >iysh > among

none <3808 lo> > .


 : 31 Therefore have I poured <8210 shaphak > out mine

<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

<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

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

<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 >

<2719 chereb > : and she became <1961 hayah > famous <8034 shem

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


 : 11 .  And when <3588 kiy > her sister <0269 >achowth >

Aholibah <0172 >Oholiybah > saw <7200 ra>ah >  [ this ]  ,  she

was more corrupt <7843 shachath > in her inordinate <5691

<agabah > love <5691 <agabah > than she ,  and in her whoredoms

<8457 taznuwth > more than her sister <0269 >achowth > in  [ her

]  whoredoms <2183 zanuwn > .


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

and rulers <5461 cagan > clothed <3847 labash > most gorgeously

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>

 : 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

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

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

 : 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

from whom thy mind <5315 nephesh > is alienated <5361 naqa< > ,  

and I will bring <0935 bow> > them against <5921 <al > thee on

every <5437 cabab > side <5439 cabiyb > ;


 : 23 The Babylonians ,  and all <3605 kol > the Chaldeans <3779

Kasday > ,  Pekod <6489 P@qowd > ,  and Shoa <7772 Showa< > ,  

and Koa <6970 Qowa< > ,   [ and ]  all <3605 kol > the Assyrians

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

 : 24 And they shall come <0935 bow> > against <5921 <al > thee

with chariots <2021 hotsen > ,  wagons <7393 rekeb > ,  and

wheels <1534 galgal > ,  and with an assembly <6951 qahal > of

people <5971 <am > ,   [ which ]  shall set <7760 suwm > against

<5921 <al > thee buckler <6793 tsinnah > and shield <4043 magen

will set <5414 nathan > judgment <4941 mishpat > before <6440

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

<5869 <ayin > unto them ,  nor <3808 lo> > remember <2142 zakar

 : 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

<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

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 > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ;  Thou shalt drink <8354 shathah

containeth <3557 kuwl > much <4767 mirbah > .


 : 33 Thou shalt be filled <4390 male> > with drunkenness <7943

shikkarown > and sorrow <3015 yagown > ,  with the cup <3563

 : 34 Thou shalt even drink <8354 shathah > it and suck <4680

matsah >  [ it ]  out ,  and thou shalt break <1633 garam > the

sherds <2789 cheres > thereof ,  and pluck <5423 nathaq > off

thine own breasts <7699 shad > : for I have spoken <1696 dabar >

 [ it ]  ,  saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD

<3069 Y@hovih > .


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

the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ;  Because <3282

ya<an > thou hast forgotten <7911 shakach > me ,  and cast <7998

therefore bear <5375 nasa> > thou also <1571 gam > thy lewdness

<2154 zimmah > and thy whoredoms <8457 taznuwth > .


 : 36 .  The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > moreover

unto me ;  Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > ,  wilt thou

judge <8199 shaphat > Aholah <0170 >Oholah > and Aholibah <0172

>Oholiybah > ?  yea ,  declare <5046 nagad > unto them their

abominations <8441 tow<ebah > ;


 : 37 That they have committed <5003 na>aph > adultery <5003

na>aph > ,  and blood <1818 dam >  [ is ]  in their hands <3027

yad > ,  and with their idols <1544 gilluwl > have they

committed <5003 na>aph > adultery <5003 na>aph > ,  and have

also <1571 gam > caused their sons <1121 ben > ,  whom <0834

>aher > they bare <3205 yalad > unto me ,  to pass <5674 <abar >

for them through  [ the fire ]  ,  to devour <0402 >oklah >  [

them ]  .


 : 38 Moreover <5750 <owd > this <2063 zo>th > they have done

<6213 <asah > unto me : they have defiled <2930 tame> > my

sanctuary <4720 miqdash > in the same <1931 huw> > day <3117

yowm > ,  and have profaned <2490 chalal > my sabbaths <7676

shabbath > .


 : 39 For when they had slain <7819 shachat > their children

<1121 ben > to their idols <1544 gilluwl > ,  then they came

<0935 bow> > the same <1931 huw> > day <3117 yowm > into <0413

  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

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 > .

 : 3 And utter <4911 mashal > a parable <4912 mashal > unto the

rebellious <4805 m@riy > house <1004 bayith > ,  and say <0559

Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ;  Set <8239 shaphath >

on a pot <5518 ciyr > ,  set <8239 shaphath >  [ it ]  on ,  and

also <1571 gam > pour <3332 yatsaq > water <4325 mayim > into it

 : 4 Gather <0622 >acaph > the pieces <5409 nethach > thereof

<3802 katheph > ;  fill <4390 male> >  [ it ]  with the choice

<4005 mibchar > bones <6106 <etsem > .


 : 5 Take <3947 laqach > the choice <4005 mibchar > of the flock

seethe <1310 bashal > the bones <6106 <etsem > of it therein

 : 6 Wherefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >

the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ;  Woe <0188 >owy >

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

dust <6083 <aphar > ;


 : 8 That it might cause fury <2534 chemah > to come <5927 <alah

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

the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ;  Woe <0188 >owy >

 : 11 Then set <5975 <amad > it empty <7385 riyq > upon the

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

  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 > it was profaned <2490 chalal > ;  and against <0413 >el >

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

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

>el > the 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 > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ;  Because <3282 ya<an > that Edom

<0123 >Edom > hath dealt <6213 <asah > against the house <1004

bayith > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > by taking vengeance <5359

naqam > ,  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

<3045 yada< > my vengeance <5360 n@qamah > ,  saith <5002 n@>um

 : 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

destroy <4889 mashchiyth >  [ it ]  for the old <5769 <owlam >

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

the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ;  Behold <2005 hen

remnant <7611 sh@>eriyth > of the sea <3220 yam > coast <2348

 : 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

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

,  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 ]

Y@hovih > : and it shall become <1961 hayah > a spoil <0957 baz

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

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

 : 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

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

 : 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

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

 : 14 And I will make thee like the top <6706 ts@chiyach > of a

 : 16 Then all <3605 kol > the princes <5387 nasiy> > of the sea

<3220 yam > shall come <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad > from
