Ezekiel 1

1. Now it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the thirtieth <7970

sh@lowshiym > year <8141 shaneh >, in the fourth <7243 r@biy<iy

> [month], in the fifth <2568 chamesh > [day] of the month <2320

chodesh >, as I [was] among <8432 tavek > the captives <1473

gowlah > by the river <5104 nahar > of Chebar <3529 K@bar >,

[that] the heavens <8064 shamayim > were opened <6605 pathach >,

and I saw <7200 ra>ah > visions <4759 mar>ah > of God <0430

>elohiym >.

2 In the fifth <2568 chamesh > [day] of the month <2320 chodesh

>, which <1958 hiy > [was] the fifth <2549 chamiyshiy > year

<8141 shaneh > of king <4428 melek > Jehoiachin's <3112

Yowyakiyn > captivity <1546 galuwth >,

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

hayah > expressly unto Ezekiel <3168 Y@chezqe>l > the priest

<3548 kohen >, the son <1121 ben > of Buzi <0941 Buwziy >, in

the land <0776 >erets > of the Chaldeans <3779 Kasday > by the

river <5104 nahar > Chebar <3529 K@bar >; and the hand <3027 yad

> of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > was there <8033 sham > upon him.

4. And I looked <7200 ra>ah >, and, behold <2009 hinneh >, a

whirlwind came <0935 bow> > out of the north <6828 tsaphown >, a

great <1419 gadowl > cloud <6051 <anan >, and a fire <0784 >esh

> infolding <3947 laqach > itself, and a brightness <5051 nogahh

> [was] about <5439 cabiyb > it, and out of the midst <8432

tavek > thereof as the colour <5869 <ayin > of amber <2830

chashmal >, out of the midst <8432 tavek > of the fire <0784

>esh >.

5 Also out of the midst <8432 tavek > thereof [came] the

likeness <1823 d@muwth > of four <0702 >arba< > living <2416

chay > creatures <2416 chay >. And this <2088 zeh > [was] their

appearance <4758 mar>eh >; they had the likeness <1823 d@muwth >

of a man <0120 >adam >.

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

<6440 paniym >, and every one <0259 >echad > had four <0702

>arba< > wings <3671 kanaph >.

7 And their feet <7272 regel > [were] straight <3474 yashar >

feet <7272 regel >; and the sole <3709 kaph > of their feet

<7272 regel > [was] like the sole <3709 kaph > of a calf's <5695

<egel > foot <7272 regel >: and they sparkled <5340 natsats >

like the colour <5869 <ayin > of burnished <7044 qalal > brass

<5178 n@chosheth >.

8 And [they had] the hands <3027 yad > of a man <0120 >adam >

under <8478 tachath > their wings <3671 kanaph > on <5921 <al >

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

<0702 >arba< > had their faces <6440 paniym > and their wings

<3671 kanaph >.

9 Their wings <3671 kanaph > [were] joined <2266 chabar > one

<0802 >ishshah > to another <0269 >achowth >; they turned <5437

cabab > not when they went <3212 yalak >; they went <3212 yalak

> every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > straight <5676 <eber >

forward <6440 paniym >.

10 As for the likeness <1823 d@muwth > of their faces <6440

paniym >, they four <0702 >arba< > had the face <6440 paniym >

of a man <0120 >adam >, and the face <6440 paniym > of a lion

<0738 >ariy >, on <0413 >el > the right <3225 yamiyn > side

<3225 yamiyn >: and they four <0702 >arba< > had the face <6440

paniym > of an ox <7794 showr > on the left <8040 s@mo>wl > side

<8040 s@mo>wl >; they four <0702 >arba< > also had the face

<6440 paniym > of an eagle <5404 nesher >.

11 Thus [were] their faces <6440 paniym >: and their wings

<3671 kanaph > [were] stretched <6504 parad > upward <4605 ma<al

>; two <8147 sh@nayim > [wings] of every <0376 >iysh > one <0376

>iysh > [were] joined <2266 chabar > one <0376 >iysh > to

another <0376 >iysh >, and two <8147 sh@nayim > covered <3680

kacah > their bodies <1472 g@viyah >.

12 And they went <3212 yalak > every <0376 >iysh > one <0376

>iysh > straight <5676 <eber > forward <6440 paniym >: whither

the spirit <7307 ruwach > was to go <3212 yalak >, they went

<3212 yalak >; [and] they turned <5437 cabab > not when they

went <3212 yalak >.

13 As for the likeness <1823 d@muwth > of the living <2416 chay

> creatures <2416 chay >, their appearance <4758 mar>eh > [was]

like burning <1197 ba<ar > coals <1513 gechel > of fire <0784

>esh >, [and] like the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of lamps <3940

lappiyd >: it went <1980 halak > up and down among <0996 beyn >

the living <2416 chay > creatures <2416 chay >; and the fire

<0784 >esh > was bright <5051 nogahh >, and out of the fire

<0784 >esh > went <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > lightning

<1300 baraq >.

14 And the living <2416 chay > creatures <2416 chay > ran <7519

ratsa> > and returned <7725 shuwb > as the appearance <4758

mar>eh > of a flash <0965 bazaq > of lightning <0965 bazaq >.

15. Now as I beheld <7200 ra>ah > the living <2416 chay >

creatures <2416 chay >, behold <2009 hinneh > one <0259 >echad >

wheel <0212 >owphan > upon the earth <0776 >erets > by the

living <2416 chay > creatures <2416 chay >, with his four <0702

>arba< > faces <6440 paniym >.

16 The appearance <4758 mar>eh > of the wheels <0212 >owphan >

and their work <4639 ma<aseh > [was] like unto the colour <5869

<ayin > of a beryl <8658 tarshiysh >: and they four <0702 >arba<

> had one <0259 >echad > likeness <1823 d@muwth >: and their

appearance <4758 mar>eh > and their work <4639 ma<aseh > [was]

as it were a wheel <0212 >owphan > in the middle <8432 tavek >

of a wheel <0212 >owphan >.

17 When they went <3212 yalak >, they went <3212 yalak > upon

their four <0702 >arba< > sides <7253 reba< >: [and] they turned

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

18 As for their rings <1354 gab >, they were so high <1362

gabahh > that they were dreadful <3374 yir>ah >; and their rings

<1354 gab > [were] full <4392 male> > of eyes <5869 <ayin >

round <5439 cabiyb > about them four <0702 >arba< >.

19 And when the living <2416 chay > creatures <2416 chay > went

<3212 yalak >, the wheels <0212 >owphan > went <3212 yalak > by

them: and when the living <2416 chay > creatures <2416 chay >

were lifted <5375 nasa> > up from the earth <0776 >erets >, the

wheels <0212 >owphan > were lifted <5375 nasa> > up.

20 Whithersoever the spirit <7307 ruwach > was to go <3212

yalak >, they went <3212 yalak >, thither <8033 sham > [was

their] spirit <7307 ruwach > to go <3212 yalak >; and the wheels

<0212 >owphan > were lifted <5375 nasa> > up over <5980 <ummah >

against <5980 <ummah > them: for the spirit <7307 ruwach > of

the living <2416 chay > creature <2416 chay > [was] in the

wheels <0212 >owphan >.

21 When those went <3212 yalak >, [these] went <3212 yalak >;

and when those stood <5975 <amad >, [these] stood <5975 <amad >;

and when those were lifted <5375 nasa> > up from the earth <0776

>erets >, the wheels <0212 >owphan > were lifted <5375 nasa> >

up over <5980 <ummah > against <5980 <ummah > them: for the

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

chay > [was] in the wheels <0212 >owphan >.

22 And the likeness <1823 d@muwth > of the firmament <7549

raqiya< > upon the heads <7218 ro>sh > of the living <2416 chay

> creature <2416 chay > [was] as the colour <5869 <ayin > of the

terrible <3372 yare> > crystal <7140 qerach >, stretched <5186

natah > forth over <5921 <al > their heads <7218 ro>sh > above

<4605 ma<al >.

23 And under <8478 tachath > the firmament <7549 raqiya< >

[were] their wings <3671 kanaph > straight <3474 yashar >, the

one <0802 >ishshah > toward <0413 >el > the other <0269 >achowth

>: every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > had two <8147 sh@nayim

>, which covered <3680 kacah > on this <2007 hennah > side, and

every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > had two <8147 sh@nayim >,

which covered <3680 kacah > on that side, their bodies <1472

g@viyah >.

24 And when they went <3212 yalak >, I heard <8085 shama< > the

noise <6963 qowl > of their wings <3671 kanaph >, like the noise

<6963 qowl > of great <7227 rab > waters <4325 mayim >, as the

voice <6963 qowl > of the Almighty <7706 Shadday >, the voice

<6963 qowl > of speech <1999 hamullah >, as the noise <6963 qowl

> of an host <4264 machaneh >: when they stood <5975 <amad >,

they let <7503 raphah > down <7503 raphah > their wings <3671

kanaph >.

25 And there was a voice <6963 qowl > from the firmament <7549

raqiya< > that [was] over <5921 <al > their heads <7218 ro>sh >,

when they stood <5975 <amad >, [and] had let <7503 raphah > down

<7503 raphah > their wings <3671 kanaph >.

26. And above <4605 ma<al > the firmament <7549 raqiya< > that

[was] over <5921 <al > their heads <7218 ro>sh > [was] the

likeness <1823 d@muwth > of a throne <3678 kicce> >, as the

appearance <4758 mar>eh > of a sapphire <5601 cappiyr > stone

<68>: and upon the likeness <1823 d@muwth > of the throne <3678

kicce> > [was] the likeness <1823 d@muwth > as the appearance

<4758 mar>eh > of a man <0120 >adam > above <4605 ma<al > upon

it.

27 And I saw <7200 ra>ah > as the colour <5869 <ayin > of amber

<2830 chashmal >, as the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of fire <0784

>esh > round <5439 cabiyb > about within <1004 bayith > it, from

the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of his loins <4975 mothen > even

upward <4605 ma<al >, and from the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of

his loins <4975 mothen > even downward <4295 mattah >, I saw

<7200 ra>ah > as it were the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of fire

<0784 >esh >, and it had brightness <5051 nogahh > round <5439

cabiyb > about.

28 As the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of the bow <7198 qesheth >

that is in the cloud <6051 <anan > in the day <3117 yowm > of

rain <1653 geshem >, so <3651 ken > [was] the appearance <4758

mar>eh > of the brightness <5051 nogahh > round <5439 cabiyb >

about. This <1931 huw> > [was] the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of

the likeness <1823 d@muwth > of the glory <3519 kabowd > of the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah >. And when I saw <7200 ra>ah > [it], I fell

<5307 naphal > upon my face <6440 paniym >, and I heard <8085

shama< > a voice <6963 qowl > of one that spake <1696 dabar >.

Ezekiel 2

1. And he said <0559 >amar > unto me, Son <1121 ben > of man

<0120 >adam >, stand <5975 <amad > upon thy feet <7272 regel >,

and I will speak <1696 dabar > unto thee.

2 And the spirit <7307 ruwach > entered <0935 bow> > into me

when <0834 >aher > he spake <1696 dabar > unto me, and set <5975

<amad > me upon my feet <7272 regel >, that I heard <8085 shama<

> him that spake <1696 dabar > unto me.

3 And he said <0559 >amar > unto me, Son <1121 ben > of man

<0120 >adam >, I send <7971 shalach > thee to the children <1121

ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, to a rebellious <4775 marad >

nation <1471 gowy > that hath rebelled <4775 marad > against me:

they and their fathers <1> have transgressed <6586 pasha< >

against me, [even] unto this <2088 zeh > very <6106 <etsem > day

<3117 yowm >.

4 For [they are] impudent children <1121 ben > and stiffhearted.

I do send <7971 shalach > thee unto them; and thou shalt say

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

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

5 And they, whether <0518 >im > they will hear <8085 shama< >,

or whether <0518 >im > they will forbear <2308 chadal >, (for

they [are] a rebellious <4805 m@riy > house <1004 bayith >,) yet

shall know <3045 yada< > that there hath been <1961 hayah > a

prophet <5030 nabiy> > among <8432 tavek > them.

6. And thou, son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, be not

afraid <3372 yare> > of them, neither <0408 >al > be afraid

<3372 yare> > of their words <1697 dabar >, though <3588 kiy >

briers <5621 carab > and thorns <5544 cillown > [be] with thee,

and thou dost dwell <3427 yashab > among <0413 >el > scorpions

<6137 <aqrab >: be not afraid <3372 yare> > of their words <1697

dabar >, nor <0408 >al > be dismayed <2865 chathath > at their

looks <6400 pelach >, though <3588 kiy > they [be] a rebellious

<4805 m@riy > house.

7 And thou shalt speak <1696 dabar > my words <1697 dabar >

unto them, whether <0518 >im > they will hear <8085 shama< >, or

whether <0518 >im > they will forbear <2308 chadal >: for they

[are] most rebellious <4805 m@riy >.

8 But thou, son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, hear <8085

shama< > what I say <1696 dabar > unto thee; Be not thou

rebellious <4805 m@riy > like that rebellious <4805 m@riy >

house <1004 bayith >: open <6475 patsah > thy mouth <6310 peh >,

and eat <0398 >akal > that I give <5414 nathan > thee.

9 And when I looked <7200 ra>ah >, behold <2009 hinneh >, an

hand <3027 yad > [was] sent <7971 shalach > unto me; and, lo

<2009 hinneh >, a roll <4040 m@gillah > of a book <5612 cepher >

[was] therein;

10 And he spread <6566 paras > it before <6440 paniym > me; and

it [was] written <3789 kathab > within <6440 paniym > and

without <0268 >achowr >: and [there was] written <3789 kathab >

therein <0413 >el > lamentations <7015 qiynah >, and mourning

<1899 hegeh >, and woe <1958 hiy >.

Ezekiel 3

1. Moreover he said <0559 >amar > unto me, Son <1121 ben > of

man <0120 >adam >, eat <0398 >akal > that thou findest <4672

matsa> >; eat <0398 >akal > this <2063 zo>th > roll <4040

m@gillah >, and go <3212 yalak > speak <1696 dabar > unto the

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

2 So I opened <6605 pathach > my mouth <6310 peh >, and he

caused me to eat <0398 >akal > that roll <4040 m@gillah >.

3 And he said <0559 >amar > unto me, Son <1121 ben > of man

<0120 >adam >, cause thy belly <0990 beten > to eat <0398 >akal

>, and fill <4390 male> > thy bowels <4578 me<ah > with this

<2063 zo>th > roll <4040 m@gillah > that I give <5414 nathan >

thee. Then did I eat <0398 >akal > [it]; and it was in my mouth

<6310 peh > as honey <1706 d@bash > for sweetness <4966 mathowq

4 And he said <0559 >amar > unto me, Son <1121 ben > of man

<0120 >adam >, go <3212 yalak >, get <0935 bow> > thee unto the

house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, and speak <1696

dabar > with my words <1697 dabar > unto them.

5 For thou [art] not sent <7971 shalach > to a people <5971 <am

> of a strange <6012 <ameq > speech <8193 saphah > and of an

hard <3515 kabed > language <3956 lashown >, [but] to the house

<1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >;

6 Not to many <7227 rab > people <5971 <am > of a strange <6012

<ameq > speech <8193 saphah > and of an hard <3515 kabed >

language <3956 lashown >, whose <0834 >aher > words <1697 dabar

> thou canst not understand <8085 shama< >. Surely, had I sent

<7971 shalach > thee to them, they would have hearkened <8085

shama< > unto thee.

7 But the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > will

<14> not hearken <8085 shama< > unto thee; for they will <14>

not hearken <8085 shama< > unto me: for all <3605 kol > the

house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > [are] impudent

and hardhearted.

8 Behold <2009 hinneh >, I have made <5414 nathan > thy face

<6440 paniym > strong <2389 chazaq > against <5980 <ummah >

their faces <6440 paniym >, and thy forehead <4696 metsach >

strong <2389 chazaq > against <5980 <ummah > their foreheads

<4696 metsach >.

9 As an adamant <8068 shamiyr > harder <2389 chazaq > than

flint <6864 tsor > have I made <5414 nathan > thy forehead <4696

metsach >: fear <3372 yare> > them not, neither <3808 lo> > be

dismayed <2865 chathath > at their looks <6400 pelach >, though

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

10 Moreover he said <0559 >amar > unto me, Son <1121 ben > of

man <0120 >adam >, all <3605 kol > my words <1697 dabar > that I

shall speak <1696 dabar > unto thee receive <3947 laqach > in

thine heart <3824 lebab >, and hear <8085 shama< > with thine

ears <0241 >ozen >.

11 And go <3212 yalak >, get <0935 bow> > thee to them of the

captivity <1473 gowlah >, unto the children <1121 ben > of thy

people <5971 <am >, and speak <1696 dabar > unto them, and tell

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

Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; whether <0518 >im >

they will hear <8085 shama< >, or whether <0518 >im > they will

forbear <2308 chadal >.

12 Then the spirit <7307 ruwach > took <5375 nasa> > me up, and

I heard <8085 shama< > behind <0310 >achar > me a voice <6963

qowl > of a great <1419 gadowl > rushing <7494 ra<ash >,

[saying], Blessed <1288 barak > [be] the glory <3519 kabowd > of

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > from his place <4725 maqowm >.

13 [I heard] also the noise <6963 qowl > of the wings <3671

kanaph > of the living <2416 chay > creatures <2416 chay > that

touched <5401 nashaq > one <0802 >ishshah > another <0269

>achowth >, and the noise <6963 qowl > of the wheels <0212

>owphan > over <5980 <ummah > against <5980 <ummah > them, and a

noise <6963 qowl > of a great <1419 gadowl > rushing <7494

ra<ash >.

14 So the spirit <7307 ruwach > lifted <5375 nasa> > me up, and

took <3947 laqach > me away, and I went <3212 yalak > in

bitterness <4751 mar >, in the heat <2534 chemah > of my spirit

<7307 ruwach >; but the hand <3027 yad > of the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > was strong <2388 chazaq > upon me.

15 Then I came <0935 bow> > to them of the captivity <1473

gowlah > at Telabib <8512 Tel >Abiyb >, that dwelt <3427 yashab

> by the river <5104 nahar > of Chebar <3529 K@bar >, and I sat

<3427 yashab > where <8033 sham > they sat <3427 yashab >, and

remained <3427 yashab > there <8033 sham > astonished <8074

shamem > among <8432 tavek > them seven <7651 sheba< > days

<3117 yowm >.

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

of seven <7651 sheba< > days <3117 yowm >, that the word <1697

dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came <1961 hayah > unto me,

saying <0559 >amar >,

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

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

[man] shall die <4191 muwth > in his iniquity <5771 <avon >; but

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

19 Yet if <3588 kiy > thou warn <2094 zahar > the wicked <7563

<7562 resha< >, nor from his wicked <7563 rasha< > way <1870

20 Again <7725 shuwb >, When a righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > [man]

doth turn <7725 shuwb > from his righteousness <6664 tsedeq >,

and commit <6213 <asah > iniquity <5766 <evel >, and I lay <5414

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

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

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

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

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

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

24 Then the spirit <7307 ruwach > entered <0935 bow> > into me,

27 But when I speak <1696 dabar > with thee, I will open <6605

Ezekiel 4

12 And thou shalt eat <0398 >akal > it [as] barley <8184

it with dung <1561 gelel > that cometh <6627 tsa>ah > out of man

13 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar >, Even <3602

16 Moreover he said <0559 >amar > unto me, Son <1121 ben > of

Ezekiel 5

1. And thou, son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, take <3947

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

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

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

8 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

12 A third <7992 sh@liyshiy > part of thee shall die <4191

15 So it shall be a reproach <2781 cherpah > and a taunt <1422

17 So will I send <7971 shalach > upon you famine <7458 ra<ab >

and evil <7451 ra< > beasts <2416 chay >, and they shall bereave

Ezekiel 6

high <1116 bamah > places shall be desolate <3456 yasham >; that

your altars <4196 mizbeach > may be laid waste <2717 charab >

and made desolate <0816 >asham >, and your idols <1544 gilluwl >

may be broken <7665 shabar > and cease <7673 shabath >, and your

images <2553 chamman > may be cut <1438 gada< > down <1438 gada<

7 And the slain <2491 chalal > shall fall <5307 naphal > in the

midst <8432 tavek > of you, and ye shall know <3045 yada< > that

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

8. Yet will I leave <3498 yathar > a remnant <3498 yathar >,

that ye may have <1961 hayah > [some] that shall escape <6412

paliyt > the sword <2719 chereb > among the nations <1471 gowy >,

when ye shall be scattered <2219 zarah > through the countries

<0776 >erets >.

9 And they that escape <6412 paliyt > of you shall remember

<2142 zakar > me among the nations <1471 gowy > whither they

shall be carried <7617 shabah > captives <7617 shabah >, because

<0834 >aher > I am broken <7665 shabar > with their whorish

<2181 zanah > heart <3820 leb >, which <0834 >aher > hath

departed <5493 cuwr > from me, and with their eyes <5869 <ayin >,

which go a whoring <2181 zanah > after <0310 >achar > their

idols <1544 gilluwl >: and they shall lothe <6962 quwt >

themselves <6440 paniym > for the evils <7451 ra< > which <0834

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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 >

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

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

7 The morning <6843 ts@phiyrah > is come <0935 bow> > unto thee,

O thou that dwellest <3427 yashab > in the land <0776 >erets >:

the time <6256 <eth > is come <0935 bow> >, the day <3117 yowm >

of trouble <4103 m@huwmah > [is] near <7138 qarowb >, and not

the sounding <1906 hed > again <1906 hed > of the mountains

8 Now <6258 <attah > will I shortly <7138 qarowb > pour <8210

<3615 kalah > mine anger <0639 >aph > upon thee: and I will

judge <8199 shaphat > thee according to thy ways <1870 derek >,

and will recompense <5414 nathan > thee for all <3605 kol >

thine abominations <8441 tow<ebah >.

9 And mine eye <5869 <ayin > shall not spare <2347 chuwc >,

neither <3808 lo> > will I have pity <2550 chamal >: I will

recompense <5414 nathan > thee according to thy ways <1870 derek

midst <8432 tavek > of thee; and ye shall know <3045 yada< >

that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > that smiteth <5221 nakah >.

10 Behold <2009 hinneh > the day <3117 yowm >, behold <2009

hinneh >, it is come <0935 bow> >: the morning <6843 ts@phiyrah

11 Violence <2555 chamac > is risen <6965 quwm > up into a rod

<4294 matteh > of wickedness <7562 resha< >: none <3808 lo> > of

12 The time <6256 <eth > is come <0935 bow> >, the day <3117

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

neither <3808 lo> > shall any <0376 >iysh > strengthen <2388

14 They have blown <8628 taqa< > the trumpet <8628 taqa< >,

even to make all <3605 kol > ready <3559 kuwn >; but none <0369

my wrath <2740 charown > [is] upon all <3605 kol > the multitude

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

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

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

<3588 kiy > it is the stumblingblock <4383 mikshowl > of their

20 As for the beauty <6643 ts@biy > of his ornament <5716 <adiy

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

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

23. Make <6213 <asah > a chain <7659 shib<athayim >: for the

land <0776 >erets > is full <4390 male> > of bloody <1818 dam >

crimes <4941 mishpat >, and the city <5892 <iyr > is full <4390

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

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

their houses <1004 bayith >: I will also make the pomp <1347

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

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

I will do <6213 <asah > unto them after their way <1870 derek >,

and according to their deserts <4941 mishpat > will I judge

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

Ezekiel 8

1. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the sixth <8345

shishshiy > year <8141 shaneh >, in the sixth <8345 shishshiy >

[month], in the fifth <2568 chamesh > [day] of the month <2320

<3427 yashab > before <6440 paniym > me, that the hand <3027 yad

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

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

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

the way <1870 derek > toward the north <6828 tsaphown >, and

behold <2009 hinneh > northward <6828 tsaphown > at the gate

image <5566 cemel > of jealousy <7068 qin>ah > in the entry

<0872 b@>ah >.

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

man <0120 >adam >, seest <7200 ra>ah > thou what <4100 mah >

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

7. And he brought <0935 bow> > me to the door <6607 pethach >

of the court <2691 chatser >; and when I looked <7200 ra>ah >,

behold <2009 hinneh > a hole <2356 chowr > in the wall <7023

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

9 And he said <0559 >amar > unto me, Go <0935 bow> > in, and

behold <7200 ra>ah > the wicked <7451 ra< > abominations <8441

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

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

the ancients <2204 zaqen > of the house <1004 bayith > of Israel

every man <0376 >iysh > in the chambers <2315 cheder > of his

13. He said <0559 >amar > also unto me, Turn <7725 shuwb > thee

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

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

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

>uwlam > and the altar <4196 mizbeach >, [were] about five <2568

chamesh > and twenty <6242 <esriym > men <0376 >iysh >, with

their backs <0268 >achowr > toward <0413 >el > the temple <1964

paniym > toward the east <6924 qedem >; and they worshipped

<7812 shachah > the sun <8121 shemesh > toward the east <6924

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

ra>ah > [this], O son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >? Is it a

light <7043 qalal > thing to the house <1004 bayith > of Judah

<3063 Y@huwdah > that they commit <6213 <asah > the abominations

<8441 tow<ebah > which <0834 >aher > they commit <6213 <asah >

here <6311 poh >? for they have filled <4390 male> > the land

<0776 >erets > with violence <2555 chamac >, and have returned

<7725 shuwb > to provoke me to anger <3707 ka<ac >: and, lo

<2009 hinneh >, they put <7971 shalach > the branch <2156

z@mowrah > to their nose <0639 >aph >.

18 Therefore will I also <1571 gam > deal <6213 <asah > in fury

<2534 chemah >: mine eye <5869 <ayin > shall not spare <2347

and though they cry <7121 qara> > in mine ears <0241 >ozen >

with a loud <1419 gadowl > voice <6963 qowl >, [yet] will I not

hear <8085 shama< > them.

Ezekiel 9

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

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

Cause them that have charge <6486 p@quddah > over the city <5892

[with] his destroying <4892 mashcheth > weapon <3627 k@liy > in

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

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

lieth toward the north <6828 tsaphown >, and every man <0376

stood <5975 <amad > beside <0681 >etsel > the brasen <5178

3 And the glory <3519 kabowd > of the God <0430 >elohiym > of

Israel <3478 Yisra>el > was gone <5927 <alah > up from the

cherub <3742 k@ruwb >, whereupon he was, to the threshold <4670

miphtan > of the house <1004 bayith >. And he called <7121 qara>

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

4 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto him, Go

<5674 <abar > through <5674 <abar > the midst <8432 tavek > of

the city <5892 <iyr >, through the midst <8432 tavek > of

Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >, and set <8427 tavah > a mark

<8420 tav > upon the foreheads <4696 metsach > of the men <0582

for all <3605 kol > the abominations <8441 tow<ebah > that be

done <6213 <asah > in the midst <8432 tavek > thereof.

5. And to the others <0428 >el-leh > he said <0559 >amar > in

mine hearing <0241 >ozen >, Go <5674 <abar > ye after <0310

>achar > him through the city <5892 <iyr >, and smite <5221

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

neither <0408 >al > have ye pity <2550 chamal >:

6 Slay <2026 harag > utterly old <2205 zaqen > [and] young

taph > children <2945 taph >, and women <0802 >ishshah >: but

come <5066 nagash > not near <5066 nagash > any <3605 kol > man

<0376 >iysh > upon whom <0834 >aher > [is] the mark <8420 tav >;

and begin <2490 chalal > at my sanctuary <4720 miqdash >. Then

they began <2490 chalal > at the ancient <2204 zaqen > men <0582

>enowsh > which <0834 >aher > [were] before <6440 paniym > the

house <1004 bayith >.

7 And he said <0559 >amar > unto them, Defile <2930 tame> > the

house <1004 bayith >, and fill <4390 male> > the courts <2691

chatser > with the slain <2491 chalal >: go <3318 yatsa> > ye

forth <3318 yatsa> >. And they went <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318

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

8 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, while they were slaying

<5221 nakah > them, and I was left <7604 sha>ar >, that I fell

<5307 naphal > upon my face <6440 paniym >, and cried <2199

za<aq >, and said <0559 >amar >, Ah <0162 >ahahh > Lord <0136

9 Then said <0559 >amar > he unto me, The iniquity <5771 <avon

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

10 And as for me also <1571 gam >, mine eye <5869 <ayin > shall

not spare <2347 chuwc >, neither <3808 lo> > will I have pity

<2550 chamal >, [but] I will recompense <5414 nathan > their way

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

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

<3847 labash > with linen <0906 bad >, which <0834 >aher > [had]

the inkhorn <7083 qeceth > by his side <4975 mothen >, reported

<7725 shuwb > the matter <1697 dabar >, saying <0559 >amar >, I

have done <6213 <asah > as thou hast commanded <6680 tsavah > me.

Ezekiel 10

1. Then I looked <7200 ra>ah >, and, behold <2009 hinneh >, in

the firmament <7549 raqiya< > that was above <5921 <al > the

head <7218 ro>sh > of the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > there

appeared <7200 ra>ah > over <5921 <al > them as it were a

sapphire <5601 cappiyr > stone <68>, as the appearance <4758

mar>eh > of the likeness <1823 d@muwth > of a throne <3678

kicce> >.

2 And he spake <0559 >amar > unto the man <0376 >iysh > clothed

<3847 labash > with linen <0906 bad >, and said <0559 >amar >,

Go <0935 bow> > in between <0996 beyn > the wheels <1534 galgal

<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

5 And the sound <6963 qowl > of the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb >'

wings <3671 kanaph > was heard <8085 shama< > [even] to the

outer <2435 chiytsown > court <2691 chatser >, as the voice

<6963 qowl > of the Almighty <7706 Shadday > God <0410 >el >

when he speaketh <1696 dabar >.

6 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, [that] when he had

commanded <6680 tsavah > the man <0376 >iysh > clothed <3847

labash > with linen <0906 bad >, saying <0559 >amar >, Take

<3947 laqach > fire <0784 >esh > from between <0996 beyn > the

wheels <1534 galgal >, from between <0996 beyn > the cherubims

<3742 k@ruwb >; then he went <0935 bow> > in, and stood <5975

<amad > beside <0681 >etsel > the wheels <0212 >owphan >.

7 And [one] cherub <3742 k@ruwb > stretched <7971 shalach >

forth his hand <3027 yad > from between <0996 beyn > the

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

between <0996 beyn > the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb >, and took

<5375 nasa> > [thereof], and put <5414 nathan > [it] into <0413

labash > with linen <0906 bad >: who took <3947 laqach > [it],

and went <3318 yatsa> > out.

8. And there appeared <7200 ra>ah > in the cherubims <3742

k@ruwb > the form <8403 tabniyth > of a man's <0120 >adam > hand

<3027 yad > under <8478 tachath > their wings <3671 kanaph >.

9 And when I looked <7200 ra>ah >, behold <2009 hinneh > the

four <0702 >arba< > wheels <0212 >owphan > by the cherubims

<3742 k@ruwb >, one <0259 >echad > wheel <0212 >owphan > by one

<0259 >echad > cherub <3742 k@ruwb >, and another <0259 >echad >

wheel <0212 >owphan > by another <0259 >echad > cherub <3742

k@ruwb >: and the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of the wheels <0212

>owphan > [was] as the colour <5869 <ayin > of a beryl <8658

tarshiysh > stone <68>.

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

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

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

been <1961 hayah > in the midst <8432 tavek > of a wheel <0212

>owphan >.

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

their four <0702 >arba< > sides <7253 reba< >; they turned <5437

cabab > not as they went <3212 yalak >, but to the place <4725

maqowm > whither <0834 >aher > the head <7218 ro>sh > looked

<6437 panah > they followed it; they turned <5437 cabab > not as

they went <3212 yalak >.

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

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

<3671 kanaph >, and the wheels <0212 >owphan >, [were] full

<4392 male> > of eyes <5869 <ayin > round <5439 cabiyb > about,

[even] the wheels <0212 >owphan > that they four <0702 >arba< >

had.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

eagle <5404 nesher >.

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

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

<2416 chay > that I saw <7200 ra>ah > by the river <5104 nahar >

of Chebar <3529 K@bar >.

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

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

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

<3671 kanaph > to mount <7311 ruwm > up from the earth <0776

>erets >, the same <1992 hem > wheels <0212 >owphan > also <1571

gam > turned <5437 cabab > not from beside <0681 >etsel > them.

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

and when they were lifted <7311 ruwm > up, [these] lifted <7426

ramam > up themselves [also]: for the spirit <7307 ruwach > of

the living <2416 chay > creature <2416 chay > [was] in them.

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

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

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

over <5921 <al > the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb >.

19 And the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > lifted <5375 nasa> > up

their wings <3671 kanaph >, and mounted <7426 ramam > up from

the earth <0776 >erets > in my sight <5869 <ayin >: when they

went <3318 yatsa> > out, the wheels <0212 >owphan > also [were]

beside <5980 <ummah > them, and [every one] stood <5975 <amad >

at the door <6607 pethach > of the east <6931 qadmowniy > gate

<8179 sha<ar > of the LORD'S <3068 Y@hovah > house <1004 bayith

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

ma<al >.

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

<2416 chay > that I saw <7200 ra>ah > under <8478 tachath > the

God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > by the river

<5104 nahar > of Chebar <3529 K@bar >; and I knew <3045 yada< >

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

21 Every one <0259 >echad > had four <0702 >arba< > faces <6440

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

four <0702 >arba< > wings <3671 kanaph >; and the likeness <1823

d@muwth > of the hands <3027 yad > of a man <0120 >adam > [was]

under <8478 tachath > their wings <3671 kanaph >.

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

<6440 paniym >: they went <3212 yalak > every <0376 >iysh > one

<0376 >iysh > straight <5676 <eber > forward <6440 paniym >.

Ezekiel 11

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

up, and brought <0935 bow> > me unto the east <6931 qadmowniy >

gate <8179 sha<ar > of the LORD'S <3068 Y@hovah > house <1004

bayith >, which looketh <6437 panah > eastward <6921 qadiym >:

and behold <2009 hinneh > at the door <6607 pethach > of the

gate <8179 sha<ar > five <2568 chamesh > and twenty <6242

<esriym > men <0376 >iysh >; among <8432 tavek > whom I saw

<7200 ra>ah > Jaazaniah <2970 Ya>azanyah > the son <1121 ben >

<1121 ben > of Benaiah <1141 B@nayah >, princes <8269 sar > of

the people <5971 <am >.

2 Then said <0559 >amar > he unto me, Son <1121 ben > of man

<0120 >adam >, these <0428 >el-leh > [are] the men <0582 >enowsh

3 Which say <0559 >amar >, [It is] not near <7138 qarowb >; let

us build <1129 banah > houses <1004 bayith >: this <1931 huw> >

[city is] the caldron <5518 ciyr >, and we [be] the flesh <1320

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 >amar

<3045 yada< > the things that come <4609 ma<alah > into your

6 Ye have multiplied <7235 rabah > your slain <2491 chalal > in

this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr >, and ye have filled <4390

male> > the streets <2351 chuwts > thereof with the slain <2491

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

the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Your slain <2491

chalal > whom <0834 >aher > ye have laid <7760 suwm > in the

midst <8432 tavek > of it, they [are] the flesh <1320 basar >,

and this <1931 huw> > [city is] the caldron <5518 ciyr >: but I

will bring <3318 yatsa> > you forth <3318 yatsa> > out of the

midst <8432 tavek > of it.

8 Ye have feared <3372 yare> > the sword <2719 chereb >; and I

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

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

9 And I will bring <3318 yatsa> > you out of the midst <8432

tavek > thereof, and deliver <5414 nathan > you into the hands

<3027 yad > of strangers <2114 zuwr >, and will execute <6213

<asah > judgments <8201 shephet > among you.

10 Ye shall fall <5307 naphal > by the sword <2719 chereb >; I

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

Israel <3478 Yisra>el >; and ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I

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

11 This <1931 huw> > [city] shall not be your caldron <5518

ciyr >, neither shall ye be the flesh <1320 basar > in the midst

<8432 tavek > thereof; [but] I will judge <8199 shaphat > you in

the border <1366 g@buwl > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >:

12 And ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068

Y@hovah >: for ye have not walked <1980 halak > in my statutes

<2706 choq >, neither <3808 lo> > executed <6213 <asah > my

manners <4941 mishpat > of the heathen <1471 gowy > that [are]

round <5439 cabiyb > about you.

13 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when I prophesied <5012

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

Benaiah <1141 B@nayah > died <4191 muwth >. Then fell <5307

naphal > I down upon my face <6440 paniym >, and cried <2199

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

<0559 >amar >, Ah <0162 >ahahh > Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069

Y@hovih >! wilt thou make <6213 <asah > a full end <3615 kalah >

of the remnant <7611 sh@>eriyth > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >?

14. Again the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

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

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

[are] they unto whom <0834 >aher > the inhabitants <3427 yashab

you far <7368 rachaq > from the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >: unto us is

this <1931 huw> > land <0776 >erets > given <5414 nathan > in

possession <4181 mowrashah >.

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

saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >;

Although <3588 kiy > I have cast <7368 rachaq > them far <7368

rachaq > off among the heathen <1471 gowy >, and although <0272

countries <0776 >erets >, yet will I be to them as a little

<4592 m@<at > sanctuary <4720 miqdash > in the countries <0776

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

saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >;

I will even gather <6908 qabats > you from the people <5971 <am

of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >.

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

they shall take <5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr > all <3605 kol >

the detestable <8251 shiqquwts > things thereof and all <3605

kol > the abominations <8441 tow<ebah > thereof from thence.

19 And I will give <5414 nathan > them one <0259 >echad > heart

<3820 leb >, and I will put <5414 nathan > a new <2319 chadash >

spirit <7307 ruwach > within <7130 qereb > you; and I will take

<5493 cuwr > the stony <68> heart <3820 leb > out of their flesh

<1320 basar >, and will give <5414 nathan > them an heart <3820

leb > of flesh <1320 basar >:

20 That they may walk <3212 yalak > in my statutes <2708

chuqqah >, and keep <8104 shamar > mine ordinances <4941 mishpat

<am >, and I will be their God <0430 >elohiym >.

21 But [as for them] whose heart <3820 leb > walketh <1980

halak > after the heart <3820 leb > of their detestable <8251

shiqquwts > things and their abominations <8441 tow<ebah >, I

will recompense <5414 nathan > their way <1870 derek > upon

their own heads <7218 ro>sh >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord

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

22. Then did the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > lift <5375 nasa> > up

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

beside <5980 <ummah > them; and the glory <3519 kabowd > of the

God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > [was] over <5921

<al > them above <4605 ma<al >.

23 And the glory <3519 kabowd > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

went <5927 <alah > up from the midst <8432 tavek > of the city

<5892 <iyr >, and stood <5975 <amad > upon the mountain <2022

har > which <0834 >aher > [is] on the east <6924 qedem > side

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

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

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

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

<3778 Kasdiy >, to them of the captivity <1473 gowlah >. So the

vision <4758 mar>eh > that I had seen <7200 ra>ah > went <5927

<alah > up from me.

25 Then I spake <1696 dabar > unto them of the captivity <1473

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

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

Ezekiel 12

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

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

2 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, thou dwellest <3427

yashab > in the midst <8432 tavek > of a rebellious <4805 m@riy

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

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

<1004 bayith >.

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

<6213 <asah > thee stuff <3627 k@liy > for removing <1473 gowlah

<5869 <ayin >; and thou shalt remove <1540 galah > from thy

place <4725 maqowm > to another <0312 >acher > place <4725

maqowm > in their sight <5869 <ayin >: it may be they will

consider <7200 ra>ah >, though <3518 kabah > they [be] a

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

4 Then shalt thou bring <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > thy

stuff <3627 k@liy > by day <3119 yowmam > in their sight <5869

<ayin >, as stuff <3627 k@liy > for removing <1473 gowlah >: and

thou shalt go <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > at even <6153

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 see <7200 ra>ah > not the ground <0776 >erets >: for I have

set <5414 nathan > thee [for] a sign <4159 mowpheth > unto the

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

7 And I did <6213 <asah > so <3651 ken > as I was commanded

<6680 tsavah >: I brought <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > my

stuff <3627 k@liy > by day <3119 yowmam >, as stuff <3627 k@liy

digged <2864 chathar > through the wall <7023 qiyr > with mine

hand <3027 yad >; I brought <3318 yatsa> > [it] forth <3318

yatsa> > in the twilight <5939 <alatah >, [and] I bare <5375

nasa> > [it] upon [my] shoulder <3802 katheph > in their sight

<5869 <ayin >.

8 And in the morning <1242 boqer > came <1961 hayah > the word

<1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > unto me, saying <0559

>amar >,

9 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, hath not the house

<1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, the rebellious <4805

m@riy > house <1004 bayith >, said <0559 >amar > unto thee, What

<4100 mah > doest <6213 <asah > thou?

10 Say <0559 >amar > thou unto them, Thus <3541 koh > saith

<0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; This

<2088 zeh > burden <4853 massa> > [concerneth] the prince <5387

nasiy> > in Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >, and all <3605 kol >

the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > that [are]

among <8432 tavek > them.

11 Say <0559 >amar >, I [am] your sign <4159 mowpheth >: like

as I have done <6213 <asah >, so <3651 ken > shall it be done

<6213 <asah > unto them: they shall remove <5493 cuwr > [and] go

<3212 yalak > into captivity <7628 sh@biy >.

12 And the prince <5387 nasiy> > that [is] among <8432 tavek >

them shall bear <5375 nasa> > upon [his] shoulder <3802 katheph

forth <3318 yatsa> >: they shall dig <2864 chathar > through the

wall <7023 qiyr > to carry <3318 yatsa> > out thereby: he shall

cover <3680 kacah > his face <6440 paniym >, that he see <7200

ra>ah > not the ground <0776 >erets > with [his] eyes <5869

<ayin >.

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

him, and he shall be taken <8610 taphas > in my snare <4686

matsuwd >: and I will bring <0935 bow> > him to Babylon <0894

Babel > [to] the land <0776 >erets > of the Chaldeans <3779

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

die <4191 muwth > there <8033 sham >.

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

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

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

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

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

15 And they shall know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068

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

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

countries <0776 >erets >.

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

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

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

that they may declare <5608 caphar > all <3605 kol > their

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

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

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

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

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

bread <3899 lechem > with quaking <7494 ra<ash >, and drink

<8354 shathah > thy water <4325 mayim > with trembling <7269

rogzah > and with carefulness <1674 d@>agah >;

19 And say <0559 >amar > unto the people <5971 <am > of the

land <0127 >adamah >, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the

Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > of the inhabitants

<3427 yashab > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >, [and] of the

land <0776 >erets > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >; They shall eat

<0398 >akal > their bread <3899 lechem > with carefulness <1674

d@>agah >, and drink <8354 shathah > their water <4325 mayim >

with astonishment <8078 shimmamown >, that her land <0776 >erets

therein <4393 m@lo> >, because of the violence <2555 chamac > of

all <3605 kol > them that dwell <3427 yashab > therein.

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

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

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

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

22 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, what <4100 mah > [is]

that proverb <4912 mashal > [that] ye have in the land <0127

days <3117 yowm > are prolonged <0748 >arak >, and every <3605

23 Tell <0559 >amar > them therefore <3651 ken >, Thus <3541

Y@hovih >; I will make this <2088 zeh > proverb <4912 mashal >

to cease <7673 shabath >, and they shall no <3808 lo> > more

<5750 <owd > use <4912 mashal > it as a proverb <4911 mashal >

in Israel <3478 Yisra>el >; but say <1696 dabar > unto them, The

days <3117 yowm > are at <7196 qishshur > hand <7126 qarab >,

and the effect <1697 dabar > of every <3605 kol > vision <2377

chazown >.

24 For there shall be no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > any vain

bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >.

25 For I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >: I will speak <1696

dabar >, and the word <1697 dabar > that I shall speak <1696

dabar > shall come <6213 <asah > to pass <6213 <asah >; it shall

be no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > prolonged <4900 mashak >:

for in your days <3117 yowm >, O rebellious <4805 m@riy > house

<1004 bayith >, will I say <1696 dabar > the word <1697 dabar >,

and will perform <6213 <asah > it, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord

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

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

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

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

[they of] the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >

say <0559 >amar >, The vision <2377 chazown > that he seeth

<2372 chazah > [is] for many <7227 rab > days <3117 yowm > [to

come], and he prophesieth <5012 naba> > of the times <6256 <eth

28 Therefore <3651 ken > say <0559 >amar > unto them, Thus

<3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD

<3069 Y@hovih >; There shall none <3808 lo> > of my words <1697

spoken <1696 dabar > shall be done <6213 <asah >, saith <5002

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

Ezekiel 13

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

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

2 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, prophesy <5012 naba> >

against <0413 >el > the prophets <5030 nabiy> > of Israel <3478

Yisra>el > that prophesy <5012 naba> >, and say <0559 >amar >

thou unto them that prophesy <5012 naba> > out of their own

hearts <3820 leb >, Hear <8085 shama< > ye the word <1697 dabar

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

GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Woe <1945 howy > unto the foolish <5036

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

<7307 ruwach >, and have seen <7200 ra>ah > nothing <1115 biltiy

4 O Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, thy prophets <5030 nabiy> > are

like the foxes <7776 shuw<al > in the deserts <2723 chorbah >.

5 Ye have not gone <5927 <alah > up into the gaps <6556 perets

house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > to stand <5975

of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.

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

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

The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > saith <5002 n@>um >: and the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > hath not sent <7971 shalach > them: and they have made

[others] to hope <3176 yachal > that they would confirm <6965

quwm > the word <1697 dabar >.

7 Have ye not seen <2372 chazah > a vain <7723 shav> > vision

<4236 machazeh >, and have ye not spoken <1696 dabar > a lying

<3577 kazab > divination <4738 miqcam >, whereas ye say <0559

>amar >, The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > saith <5002 n@>um > [it];

albeit I have not spoken <0559 >amar >?

8 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >

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

ya<an > ye have spoken <1696 dabar > vanity <7723 shav> >, and

seen <2372 chazah > lies <3576 kazab >, therefore <3651 ken >,

behold <2005 hen >, I [am] against <0413 >el > you, saith <5002

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

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

nabiy> > that see <2374 chozeh > vanity <7723 shav> >, and that

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

the assembly <5475 cowd > of my people <5971 <am >, neither

<3808 lo> > shall they be written <3789 kathab > in the writing

<3791 kathab > of the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478

Yisra>el >, neither <3808 lo> > shall they enter <0935 bow> >

into the land <0127 >adamah > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >; and ye

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

GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.

10. Because <3282 ya<an >, even because <3282 ya<an > they have

seduced <2937 ta<ah > my people <5971 <am >, saying <0559 >amar

<7965 shalowm >; and one built <1129 banah > up a wall <2434

chayits >, and, lo <2009 hinneh >, others daubed <2902 tuwach >

it with untempered <8602 taphel > [morter]:

11 Say <0559 >amar > unto them which daub <2902 tuwach > [it]

with untempered <8602 taphel > [morter], that it shall fall

<5307 naphal >: there shall be an overflowing <7857 shataph >

shower <1653 geshem >; and ye, O great <0417 >elgabiysh >

hailstones, shall fall <5307 naphal >; and a stormy <5591 ca<ar

12 Lo <2009 hinneh >, when the wall <7023 qiyr > is fallen

<5307 naphal >, shall it not be said <0559 >amar > unto you,

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

<0834 >aher > ye have daubed <2902 tuwach > [it]?

13 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >

the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; I will even rend

<1234 baqa< > [it] with a stormy <5591 ca<ar > wind <7307 ruwach

> in my fury <2534 chemah >; and there shall be an overflowing

<7857 shataph > shower <1653 geshem > in mine anger <0639 >aph >,

and great <0417 >elgabiysh > hailstones in [my] fury <2534

chemah > to consume <3615 kalah > [it].

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

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

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

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

thereof shall be discovered <1540 galah >, and it 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 >

upon the wall <7023 qiyr >, and upon them that have daubed <2902

22 Because <3282 ya<an > with lies <3576 kazab > ye have made

Ezekiel 14

1. Then came <0935 bow> > certain <0582 >enowsh > of the elders

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

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

men <0582 >enowsh > have set <5927 <alah > up their idols <1544

enquired <1875 darash > of at all by them?

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

the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Every man <0376

5 That I may take <8610 taphas > the house <1004 bayith > of

<0834 >aher > they are all <3605 kol > estranged <2114 zuwr >

from me through their idols <1544 gilluwl >.

6 Therefore <3651 ken > say <0559 >amar > unto the house <1004

<0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >;

Repent <7725 shuwb >, and turn <7725 shuwb > [yourselves] from

which separateth <5144 nazar > himself from me, and setteth

<5030 nabiy> > to enquire <1875 darash > of him concerning me; I

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > will answer <6030 <anah > him by myself:

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

that man <0376 >iysh >, and will make <8074 shamem > him a sign

<0226 >owth > and a proverb <4912 mashal >, and I will cut <3772

9 And if <3588 kiy > the prophet <5030 nabiy> > be deceived

<6601 pathah > when <3588 kiy > he hath spoken <1696 dabar > a

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

<5971 <am > Israel <3478 Yisra>el >.

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

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

<5771 <avon > of him that seeketh <1875 darash > [unto him];

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

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

13 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, when <3588 kiy > the

stretch <5186 natah > out mine hand <3027 yad > upon it, and

will break <7665 shabar > the staff <4294 matteh > of the bread

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

Ezekiel 15

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

3 Shall wood <6086 <ets > be taken <3947 laqach > thereof to do

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

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

6 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >

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

Ezekiel 16

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

2 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, cause Jerusalem <3389

the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > unto Jerusalem

<3389 Y@ruwshalaim >; Thy birth <4351 m@kuwrah > and thy

Canaan <3667 K@na<an >; thy father <1> [was] an Amorite <0567

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

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

to do <6213 <asah > any <0259 >echad > of these <0428 >el-leh >

wast cast <7993 shalak > out in the open <6440 paniym > field

<7704 sadeh >, to the lothing <1604 go<al > of thy person <5315

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

[when thou wast] in thy blood <1818 dam >, Live <2421 chayah >.

7 I have caused <5414 nathan > thee to multiply <7233 r@babah >

as the bud <6779 tsamach > of the field <7704 sadeh >, and thou

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

thou art come <0935 bow> > to excellent <5716 <adiy > ornaments

<5716 <adiy >: [thy] breasts <7699 shad > are fashioned <3559

whereas thou [wast] naked <5903 <eyrom > and bare <6181 <eryah >.

8 Now when I passed <5674 <abar > by thee, and looked <7200

ra>ah > upon thee, behold <2009 hinneh >, thy time <6256 <eth >

[was] the time <6256 <eth > of love <1730 dowd >; and I spread

<6566 paras > my skirt <3671 kanaph > over <5921 <al > thee, and

covered <3680 kacah > thy nakedness <6172 <ervah >: yea, I sware

<7650 shaba< > unto thee, and entered <0935 bow> > into a

9 Then washed <7364 rachats > I thee with water <4325 mayim >;

yea, I throughly washed <7857 shataph > away thy blood <1818 dam

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

broidered <7553 riqmah > work <7553 riqmah >; thou didst eat

<0398 >akal > fine flour <5560 coleth >, and honey <1706 d@bash

beautiful <3303 yapheh >, and thou didst prosper <6743 tsalach >

into a kingdom <4410 m@luwkah >.

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

yatsa> > among the heathen <1471 gowy > for thy beauty <3308

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

comeliness <1926 hadar >, which <0834 >aher > I had put <7760

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

GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[so].

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

<3701 keceph >, which <0834 >aher > I had given <5414 nathan >

thee, and madest <6213 <asah > to thyself images <6754 tselem >

of men <2145 zakar >, and didst commit <2181 zanah > whoredom

<2181 zanah > with them,

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

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

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

q@toreth > before <6440 paniym > them.

19 My meat <3899 lechem > also which <0834 >aher > I gave <5414

nathan > thee, fine flour <5560 coleth >, and oil <8081 shemen >,

and honey <1706 d@bash >, [wherewith] I fed <0398 >akal > thee,

thou hast even set <5414 nathan > it before <6440 paniym > them

for a sweet <5207 nichowach > savour <7381 reyach >: and [thus]

it was, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069

Y@hovih >.

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

and thy daughters <1121 ben >, whom <0834 >aher > thou hast

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

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

of thy whoredoms <8457 taznuwth > a small <4592 m@<at > matter,

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

and delivered <5414 nathan > them to cause them to pass <5674

<abar > through [the fire] for them?

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

and thy whoredoms <8457 taznuwth > thou hast not remembered

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

when thou wast <1961 hayah > naked <5903 <eyrom > and bare <6181

<eryah >, [and] wast <1961 hayah > polluted <0947 buwc > in thy

blood <1818 dam >.

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

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

unto thee! saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD

<3069 Y@hovih >;)

24 [That] thou hast also built <1129 banah > unto thee an

eminent <1354 gab > place, and hast made <6213 <asah > thee an

high <7413 ramah > place in every <3605 kol > street <7339

r@chob >.

25 Thou hast built <1129 banah > thy high <7413 ramah > place

at <0413 >el > every <3605 kol > head <7218 ro>sh > of the way

<1870 derek >, and hast made thy beauty <3308 yophiy > to be

abhorred <8581 ta<ab >, and hast opened <6589 pasaq > thy feet

<7272 regel > to every <3605 kol > one that passed <5674 <abar >

by, and multiplied <7235 rabah > thy whoredoms <8457 taznuwth >.

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

zanah > with the Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim > thy neighbours

<7934 shaken >, great <1432 gadel > of flesh <1320 basar >; and

hast increased <7235 rabah > thy whoredoms <8457 taznuwth >, to

provoke me to anger <3707 ka<ac >.

27 Behold <2009 hinneh >, therefore I have stretched <5186

natah > out my hand <3027 yad > over <5921 <al > thee, and have

diminished <1639 gara< > thine ordinary <2706 choq > [food], and

delivered <5414 nathan > thee unto the will <5314 naphash > of

them that hate <8130 sane> > thee, the daughters <1121 ben > of

the Philistines <6430 P@lishtiy >, which are ashamed <3637 kalam

> of thy lewd <2154 zimmah > way <1870 derek >.

28 Thou hast played the whore <2181 zanah > also with the

Assyrians <0804 >Ashshuwr >, because <1115 biltiy > thou wast

unsatiable; yea, thou hast played the harlot <2181 zanah > with

them, and yet couldest not be satisfied <7646 saba< >.

29 Thou hast moreover multiplied <7235 rabah > thy fornication

<8457 taznuwth > in the land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667

K@na<an > unto Chaldea <3778 Kasdiy >; and yet <1571 gam > thou

wast not satisfied <7646 saba< > herewith.

30 How <4100 mah > weak <0535 >amal > is thine heart <3826

libbah >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069

Y@hovih >, seeing thou doest <6213 <asah > all <3605 kol > these

<0428 >el-leh > [things], the work <4639 ma<aseh > of an

imperious <7986 shalleteth > whorish <2181 zanah > woman <0802

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

derek >, and makest <6213 <asah > thine high <7413 ramah > place

in every <3605 kol > street <7339 r@chob >; and hast not been

<1961 hayah > as an harlot <2181 zanah >, in that thou scornest

<7046 qalac > hire <0868 >ethnan >;

32 [But as] a wife <0802 >ishshah > that committeth <5003

na>aph > adultery <5003 na>aph >, [which] taketh <3947 laqach >

strangers <2114 zuwr > instead <8478 tachath > of her husband

<0376 >iysh >!

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

kol > whores <2181 zanah >: but thou givest <5414 nathan > thy

gifts <5083 nadan > to all <3605 kol > thy lovers <0157 >ahab >,

and hirest <7806 shazar > them, that they may come <0935 bow> >

unto thee on every <5437 cabab > side <5439 cabiyb > for thy

whoredom <8457 taznuwth >.

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

women <0802 >ishshah > in thy whoredoms <8457 taznuwth >,

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

<2181 zanah > whoredoms <2181 zanah >: and in that thou givest

<5414 nathan > a reward <0868 >ethnan >, and no <3808 lo> >

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

therefore thou art contrary <2016 hephek >.

35. Wherefore <3651 ken >, O harlot <2181 zanah >, hear <8085

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

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

<5178 n@chosheth > was poured <8210 shaphak > out, and thy

nakedness <6172 <ervah > discovered <1540 galah > through thy

whoredoms <8457 taznuwth > with thy lovers <0157 >ahab >, and

with all <3605 kol > the idols <1544 gilluwl > of thy

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

thy children <1121 ben >, which <0834 >aher > thou didst give

<5414 nathan > unto them;

37 Behold <2005 hen >, therefore <3651 ken > I will gather

<6908 qabats > all <3605 kol > thy lovers <0157 >ahab >, with

whom <0834 >aher > thou hast taken pleasure <6148 <arab >, and

all <3605 kol > [them] that thou hast loved <0157 >ahab >, with

all <3605 kol > [them] that thou hast hated <8130 sane> >; I

will even gather <6908 qabats > them round <5439 cabiyb > about

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

nakedness <6172 <ervah > unto them, that they may see <7200

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

38 And I will judge <8199 shaphat > thee, as women that break

<5003 na>aph > wedlock <5003 na>aph > and shed <8210 shaphak >

blood <1818 dam > are judged <4941 mishpat >; and I will give

<5414 nathan > thee blood <1818 dam > in fury <2534 chemah > and

jealousy <7068 qin>ah >.

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

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

strip <6584 pashat > thee also of thy clothes <0899 beged >, and

shall take <3947 laqach > thy fair <8597 tiph>arah > jewels

<3627 k@liy >, and leave <3241 Yaniym > thee naked <5903 <eyrom

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

thee with stones <68>, and thrust <1333 bathaq > thee through

with their swords <2719 chereb >.

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

<8201 shephet > upon thee in the sight <5869 <ayin > of many

<7227 rab > women <0802 >ishshah >: and I will cause thee to

cease <7673 shabath > from playing the harlot <2181 zanah >, and

thou also <1571 gam > shalt give <5414 nathan > no <3808 lo> >

hire <0868 >ethnan > any more <5750 <owd >.

42 So will I make my fury <2534 chemah > toward thee to rest

<5117 nuwach >, and my jealousy <7068 qin>ah > shall depart

<5493 cuwr > from thee, and I will be quiet <8252 shaqat >, and

will be no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > angry <3707 ka<ac >.

43 Because thou hast not remembered <2142 zakar > the days

behold <1887 he> >, therefore I also <1571 gam > will recompense

<2154 zimmah > above <5921 <al > all <3605 kol > thine

abominations <8441 tow<ebah >.

44. Behold <2009 hinneh >, every <3605 kol > one that useth

proverbs <4911 mashal > shall use <4911 mashal > [this] proverb

<4911 mashal > against <5921 <al > thee, saying <0559 >amar >,

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

45 Thou [art] thy mother's <0517 >em > daughter <1323 bath >,

that lotheth <1602 ga<al > her husband <0376 >iysh > and her

<1121 ben >: your mother <0517 >em > [was] an Hittite <2850

46 And thine elder <1419 gadowl > sister <0269 >achowth > [is]

Samaria <8111 Shom@rown >, she and her daughters <1121 ben >

that dwell <3427 yashab > at <5921 <al > thy left <8040 s@mo>wl

her daughters <1121 ben >.

47 Yet hast thou not walked <1980 halak > after their ways

<1870 derek >, nor done <6213 <asah > after their abominations

<8441 tow<ebah >: but, as [if that were] a very <6985 qat >

48 [As] I live <2416 chay >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136

thy daughters <1121 ben >.

49 Behold <2009 hinneh >, this <2088 zeh > was the iniquity

<5771 <avon > of thy sister <0269 >achowth > Sodom <5467 C@dom >,

pride <1347 ga>own >, fulness <7653 sib<ah > of bread <3899

50 And they were haughty <1361 gabahh >, and committed <6213

<asah > abomination <8441 tow<ebah > before <6440 paniym > me:

therefore I took <5493 cuwr > them away <5493 cuwr > as I saw

<7200 ra>ah > [good].

51 Neither <3808 lo> > hath Samaria <8111 Shom@rown > committed

<2398 chata> > half <2677 chetsiy > of thy sins <2403 chatta>ah

abominations <8441 tow<ebah > which <0834 >aher > thou hast done

<6213 <asah >.

52 Thou also <1571 gam >, which <0834 >aher > hast judged <6419

palal > thy sisters <0269 >achowth >, bear <5375 nasa> > thine

own shame <3639 k@limmah > for thy sins <2403 chatta>ah > that

thou hast committed <8581 ta<ab > more abominable <8581 ta<ab >

<1571 gam >, be thou confounded <0954 buwsh > also <1571 gam >,

and bear <5375 nasa> > thy shame <3639 k@limmah >, in that thou

hast justified <6663 tsadaq > thy sisters <0269 >achowth >.

53 When I shall bring <7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb > their

captivity <7622 sh@buwth >, the captivity <7622 sh@buwth > of

Sodom <5467 C@dom > and her daughters <1121 ben >, and the

captivity <7622 sh@buwth > of Samaria <8111 Shom@rown > and her

daughters <1121 ben >, then [will I bring again] the captivity

<7622 sh@buwth > of thy captives <7628 sh@biy > in the midst

<8432 tavek > of them:

54 That thou mayest bear <5375 nasa> > thine own shame <3639

comfort <5162 nacham > unto them.

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

her daughters <1121 ben >, shall return <7725 shuwb > to their

former <6927 qadmah > estate, and Samaria <8111 Shom@rown > and

her daughters <1121 ben > shall return <7725 shuwb > to their

daughters <1121 ben > shall return <7725 shuwb > to your former

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

58 Thou hast borne <5375 nasa> > thy lewdness <2154 zimmah >

LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.

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

with thee as thou hast done <6213 <asah >, which <0834 >aher >

hast despised <0959 bazah > the oath <0423 >alah > in breaking

<6565 parar > the covenant <1285 b@riyth >.

60. Nevertheless I will remember <2142 zakar > my covenant

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

covenant <1285 b@riyth >.

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

63 That thou mayest remember <2142 zakar >, and be confounded

Ezekiel 17

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

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

2 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, put <2330 chuwd > forth

<2330 chuwd > a riddle <2420 chiydah >, and speak <4911 mashal >

a parable <4912 mashal > unto the house <1004 bayith > of Israel

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

the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; A great <1419

and took <3947 laqach > the highest <6788 tsammereth > branch

<6788 tsammereth > of the cedar <0730 >erez >:

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

young <3242 y@niqah > twigs <3242 y@niqah >, and carried <0935

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

5 He took <3947 laqach > also of the seed <2233 zera< > of the

field <7704 sadeh >; he placed <3947 laqach > [it] by great

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

shall it prosper <6743 tsalach >? shall it not utterly wither

<3001 yabesh >, when the east <6921 qadiym > wind <7307 ruwach >

toucheth <5060 naga< > it? it shall wither <3001 yabesh > in the

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

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

seed <2233 zera< >, and made <3772 karath > a covenant <1285

14 That the kingdom <4467 mamlakah > might be base <8217

that by keeping <8104 shamar > of his covenant <1285 b@riyth >

it might stand <5975 <amad >.

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

doeth <6213 <asah > such <0428 >el-leh > [things]? or shall he

break <6565 parar > the covenant <1285 b@riyth >, and be

16 [As] I live <2416 chay >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136

17 Neither <3808 lo> > shall Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > with [his]

<4421 milchamah >, by casting <8210 shaphak > up mounts <5550

col@lah >, and building <1129 banah > forts <1785 dayeq >, to

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

18 Seeing he despised <0959 bazah > the oath <0423 >alah > by

breaking <6565 parar > the covenant <1285 b@riyth >, when, lo

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

broken <6331 puwr >, even it will I recompense <5414 nathan >

upon his own head <7218 ro>sh >.

20 And I will spread <6566 paras > my net <7568 resheth > upon

him, and he shall be taken <8610 taphas > in my snare <4686

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

Ezekiel 18

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

2 What <4100 mah > mean ye, that ye use <4911 mashal > this

4 Behold <2005 hen >, all <3605 kol > souls <5315 nephesh > are

14 Now, lo <2009 hinneh >, [if] he beget <3205 yalad > a son

17 [That] hath taken <7725 shuwb > off his hand <3027 yad >

not die <4191 muwth > for the iniquity <5771 <avon > of his

father <1>, he shall surely live <2421 chayah >.

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

<6233 <osheq > oppressed <6231 <ashaq >, spoiled <1497 gazal >

his brother <0251 >ach > by violence <1499 gezel >, and did

<6213 <asah > [that] which <0834 >aher > [is] not good <2896

hinneh >, even he shall die <4191 muwth > in his iniquity <5771

19 Yet say <0559 >amar > ye, Why <4069 madduwa< >? doth not the

son <1121 ben > bear <5375 nasa> > the iniquity <5771 <avon > of

the father <1>? When the son <1121 ben > hath done <6213 <asah >

that which is lawful <4941 mishpat > and right <6666 ts@daqah >,

[and] hath kept <8104 shamar > all <3605 kol > my statutes <2708

chuqqah >, and hath done <6213 <asah > them, he shall surely

live <2421 chayah >.

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

shall die <4191 muwth >. The son <1121 ben > shall not bear

<5375 nasa> > the iniquity <5771 <avon > of the father <1>,

neither <3808 lo> > shall the father <1> bear <5375 nasa> > the

iniquity <5771 <avon > of the son <1121 ben >: the righteousness

<6666 ts@daqah > of the righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > shall be upon

him, and the wickedness <7564 rish<ah > of the wicked <7563

rasha< > shall be upon him.

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

from all <3605 kol > his sins <2403 chatta>ah > that he hath

committed <6213 <asah >, and keep <8104 shamar > all <3605 kol >

my statutes <2708 chuqqah >, and do <6213 <asah > that which is

lawful <4941 mishpat > and right <6666 ts@daqah >, he shall

surely live <2421 chayah >, he shall not die <4191 muwth >.

22 All <3605 kol > his transgressions <6588 pesha< > that he

hath committed <6213 <asah >, they shall not be mentioned <2142

zakar > unto him: in his righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > that he

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

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

<7563 rasha< > should die <4194 maveth >? saith <5002 n@>um >

the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >: [and] not that he

should return <7725 shuwb > from his ways <1870 derek >, and

live <2421 chayah >?

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

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

according to all <3605 kol > the abominations <8441 tow<ebah >

that the wicked <7563 rasha< > [man] doeth <6213 <asah >, shall

he live <2425 chayay >? All <3605 kol > his righteousness <6666

ts@daqah > that he hath done <6213 <asah > shall not be

mentioned <2142 zakar >: in his trespass <4604 ma<al > that he

hath trespassed <4604 ma<al >, and in his sin <2403 chatta>ah >

that he hath sinned <2398 chata> >, in them shall he die <4191

muwth >.

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

<0136 >Adonay > is not equal <8505 takan >. Hear <8085 shama< >

now <4994 na> >, O house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el

ways <1870 derek > unequal?

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

<6213 <asah > iniquity <5766 <evel >, and dieth <4191 muwth > in

them; for his iniquity <5766 <evel > that he hath done <6213

<asah > shall he die <4191 muwth >.

27 Again, when the wicked <7563 rasha< > [man] turneth <7725

shuwb > away from his wickedness <7564 rish<ah > that he hath

committed <6213 <asah >, and doeth <6213 <asah > that which is

lawful <4941 mishpat > and right <6666 ts@daqah >, he shall save

<2421 chayah > his soul <5315 nephesh > alive <2421 chayah >.

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

shuwb > away from all <3605 kol > his transgressions <6588

pesha< > that he hath committed <6213 <asah >, he shall surely

live <2421 chayah >, he shall not die <4191 muwth >.

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

<3478 Yisra>el >, The way <1870 derek > of the Lord <0136

>Adonay > is not equal <8505 takan >. O house <1004 bayith > of

Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, are not my ways <1870 derek > equal

<8505 takan >? are not your ways <1870 derek > unequal?

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

house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, every <0376

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

Repent <7725 shuwb >, and turn <7725 shuwb > [yourselves] from

all <3605 kol > your transgressions <6588 pesha< >; so iniquity

<5771 <avon > shall not be your ruin <4383 mikshowl >.

31 Cast <7993 shalak > away from you all <3605 kol > your

transgressions <6588 pesha< >, whereby <0834 >aher > ye have

transgressed <6586 pasha< >; and make <6213 <asah > you a new

spirit <7307 ruwach >: for why <4100 mah > will ye die <4191

muwth >, O house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >?

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

death <4194 maveth > of him that dieth <4191 muwth >, saith

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

wherefore turn <7725 shuwb > [yourselves], and live <2421 chayah

2 And say <0559 >amar >, What <4100 mah > [is] thy mother <0517

>em >? A lioness <3833 labiy> >: she lay <7257 rabats > down

<7257 rabats > among <0996 beyn > lions <0738 >ariy >, she

nourished <7235 rabah > her whelps <1482 guwr > among <8432

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

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

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

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

catch <2963 taraph > the prey <2964 tereph >; it devoured <0398

>akal > men <0120 >adam >.

4 The nations <1471 gowy > also heard <8085 shama< > of him; he

was taken <8610 taphas > in their pit <7845 shachath >, and they

brought <0935 bow> > him with chains <2397 chach > unto the land

<0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >.

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

yachal >, [and] her hope <8615 tiqvah > was lost <6>, then she

took <3947 laqach > another <0259 >echad > of her whelps <1482

guwr >, [and] made <7760 suwm > him a young <3715 k@phiyr > lion

<3715 k@phiyr >.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

<iyr >; and the land <0776 >erets > was desolate <3456 yasham >,

and the fulness <4393 m@lo> > thereof, by the noise <6963 qowl >

of his roaring <7581 sh@agah >.

8 Then the nations <1471 gowy > set <5414 nathan > against

<5921 <al > him on every <5437 cabab > side <5439 cabiyb > from

the provinces <4082 m@diynah >, and spread <6566 paras > their

net <7568 resheth > over <5921 <al > him: he was taken <8610

taphas > in their pit <7845 shachath >.

9 And they put <5414 nathan > him in ward <5474 cuwgar > in

chains <2397 chach >, and brought <0935 bow> > him to the king

<4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel >: they brought <0935 bow>

should no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > be heard <8085 shama< >

upon the mountains <2022 har > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >.

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

thy blood <1818 dam >, planted <8362 shathal > by the waters

<4325 mayim >: she was fruitful <6509 parah > and full of

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

<4325 mayim >.

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

matteh > for the sceptres <7626 shebet > of them that bare <4910

mashal > rule <4910 mashal >, and her stature <6967 qowmah > was

exalted <1361 gabahh > among <0996 beyn > the thick <5688 <aboth

height <1363 gobahh > with the multitude <7230 rob > of her

branches <1808 daliyah >.

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

and the east <6921 qadiym > wind <7307 ruwach > dried <3001

yabesh > up her fruit <6529 p@riy >: her strong <5797 <oz > rods

<4294 matteh > were broken <6531 perek > and withered <3001

yabesh >; the fire <0784 >esh > consumed <0398 >akal > them.

13 And now <6258 <attah > she [is] planted <8362 shathal > in

the wilderness <4057 midbar >, in a dry <6723 tsiyah > and

thirsty <6772 tsama> > ground <0776 >erets >.

14 And fire <0784 >esh > is gone <3318 yatsa> > out of a rod

<4294 matteh > of her branches <0905 bad >, [which] hath

devoured <0398 >akal > her fruit <6529 p@riy >, so that she hath

no <3808 lo> > strong <5797 <oz > rod <4294 matteh > [to be] a

sceptre <7626 shebet > to rule <4910 mashal >. This <1931 huw> >

[is] a lamentation <7015 qiynah >, and shall be for a

lamentation <7015 qiynah >.

Ezekiel 20

1. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the seventh <7637

sh@biy<iy > year <8141 shaneh >, in the fifth <2549 chamiyshiy >

[month], the tenth <6218 <asowr > [day] of the month <2320

2 Then came <1961 hayah > the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah > unto me, saying <0559 >amar >,

3 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, speak <1696 dabar >

unto the elders <2205 zaqen > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, and

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

4 Wilt thou judge <8199 shaphat > them, son <1121 ben > of man

<0120 >adam >, wilt thou judge <8199 shaphat > [them]? cause

them to know <3045 yada< > the abominations <8441 tow<ebah > of

their fathers <1>:

5. And say <0559 >amar > unto them, Thus <3541 koh > saith

<0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; In

the day <3117 yowm > when I chose <0977 bachar > Israel <3478

Yisra>el >, and lifted <5375 nasa> > up mine hand <3027 yad >

unto the seed <2233 zera< > of the house <1004 bayith > of Jacob

<3290 Ya<aqob >, and made myself known <3045 yada< > unto them

in the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, when I

lifted <5375 nasa> > up mine hand <3027 yad > unto them, saying

<0559 >amar >, I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > your God <0430

>elohiym >;

6 In the day <3117 yowm > [that] I lifted <5375 nasa> > up mine

hand <3027 yad > unto them, to bring <3318 yatsa> > them forth

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

Mitsrayim > into <0413 >el > a land <0776 >erets > that I had

espied <8446 tuwr > for them, flowing <2100 zuwb > with milk

the glory <6643 ts@biy > of all <3605 kol > lands <0776 >erets >:

7 Then said <0559 >amar > I unto them, Cast <7993 shalak > ye

away every man <0376 >iysh > the abominations <8251 shiqquwts >

of his eyes <5869 <ayin >, and defile <2930 tame> > not

yourselves with the idols <1544 gilluwl > of Egypt <4714

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

8 But they rebelled <4784 marah > against me, and would <14>

not hearken <8085 shama< > unto me: they did not every man <0376

>iysh > cast <7993 shalak > away the abominations <8251

shiqquwts > of their eyes <5869 <ayin >, neither <3808 lo> > did

they forsake <5800 <azab > the idols <1544 gilluwl > of Egypt

<4714 Mitsrayim >: then I said <0559 >amar >, I will pour <8210

<3615 kalah > my anger <0639 >aph > against them in the midst

<8432 tavek > of the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714

Mitsrayim >.

9 But I wrought <6213 <asah > for my name's <8034 shem > sake

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

before <5869 <ayin > the heathen <1471 gowy >, among <8432 tavek

<5869 <ayin > I made myself known <3045 yada< > unto them, in

bringing <3318 yatsa> > them forth <3318 yatsa> > out of the

land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >.

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

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

<4057 midbar >.

11 And I gave <5414 nathan > them my statutes <2708 chuqqah >,

and shewed <3045 yada< > them my judgments <4941 mishpat >,

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

he shall even live <2425 chayay > in them.

12 Moreover <1571 gam > also <1571 gam > I gave <5414 nathan >

them my sabbaths <7676 shabbath >, to be a sign <0226 >owth >

between <0996 beyn > me and them, that they might know <3045

yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > that sanctify <6942

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

rebelled <4784 marah > against me in the wilderness <4057 midbar

and they despised <3988 ma>ac > my judgments <4941 mishpat >,

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

he shall even live <2425 chayay > in them; and my sabbaths <7676

shabbath > they greatly <3966 m@<od > polluted <2490 chalal >:

then I said <0559 >amar >, I would pour <8210 shaphak > out my

fury <2534 chemah > upon them in the wilderness <4057 midbar >,

to consume <3615 kalah > them.

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

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

before <5869 <ayin > the heathen <1471 gowy >, in whose <0834

15 Yet also <1571 gam > I lifted <5375 nasa> > up my hand <3027

yad > unto them in the wilderness <4057 midbar >, that I would

not bring <0935 bow> > them into <0413 >el > the land <0776

flowing <2100 zuwb > with milk <2461 chalab > and honey <1706

d@bash >, which <1958 hiy > [is] the glory of all <3605 kol >

lands <0776 >erets >;

16 Because <3282 ya<an > they despised <3988 ma>ac > my

judgments <4941 mishpat >, and walked <1980 halak > not in my

statutes <2708 chuqqah >, but polluted <2490 chalal > my

sabbaths <7676 shabbath >: for their heart <3820 leb > went

<1980 halak > after <0310 >achar > their idols <1544 gilluwl >.

17 Nevertheless mine eye <5869 <ayin > spared <2347 chuwc >

them from destroying <7843 shachath > them, neither <3808 lo> >

did I make <6213 <asah > an end <3615 kalah > of them in the

wilderness <4057 midbar >.

18 But I said <0559 >amar > unto their children <1121 ben > in

the wilderness <4057 midbar >, Walk <3212 yalak > ye not in the

statutes <2706 choq > of your fathers <1>, neither <0408 >al >

observe <8104 shamar > their judgments <4941 mishpat >, nor

<0408 >al > defile <2930 tame> > yourselves with their idols

<1544 gilluwl >:

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

walk <3212 yalak > in my statutes <2708 chuqqah >, and keep

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

20 And hallow <6942 qadash > my sabbaths <7676 shabbath >; and

they shall be a sign <0226 >owth > between <0996 beyn > me and

you, that ye may know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068

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

21 Notwithstanding the children <1121 ben > rebelled <4784

marah > against me: they walked <1980 halak > not in my statutes

<2708 chuqqah >, neither <3808 lo> > kept <8104 shamar > my

judgments <4941 mishpat > to do <6213 <asah > them, which <0834

>aher > [if] a man <0120 >adam > do <6213 <asah >, he shall even

live <2425 chayay > in them; they polluted <2490 chalal > my

sabbaths <7676 shabbath >: then I said <0559 >amar >, I would

pour <8210 shaphak > out my fury <2534 chemah > upon them, to

accomplish <3615 kalah > my anger <0639 >aph > against them in

the wilderness <4057 midbar >.

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

and wrought <6213 <asah > for my name's <8034 shem > sake <4616

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

sight <5869 <ayin > of the heathen <1471 gowy >, in whose <0834

<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

Y@hovih >; Yet <5750 <owd > in this <2063 zo>th > your fathers

<1> have blasphemed <1442 gadaph > me, in that they have

committed <4600 ma<ak > a trespass <4604 ma<al > against me.

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

the land <0776 >erets >, [for] the which <0834 >aher > I lifted

<5375 nasa> > up mine hand <3027 yad > to give <5414 nathan > it

to them, then they saw <7200 ra>ah > every <3605 kol > high

<7311 ruwm > hill <1389 gib<ah >, and all <3605 kol > the thick

<5687 <aboth > trees <6086 <ets >, and they offered <2076 zabach

<8033 sham > they presented <5414 nathan > the provocation <3708

ka<ac > of their offering <7133 qorban >: there <8033 sham >

also they made <7760 suwm > their sweet <5207 nichowach > savour

<7381 reyach >, and poured <5258 nacak > out there <8033 sham >

their drink <5262 necek > offerings.

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

the high <1116 bamah > place whereunto ye go <0935 bow> >? And

the name <8034 shem > thereof is called <7121 qara> > Bamah

30 Wherefore <3651 ken > say <0559 >amar > unto the house <1004

after <0310 >achar > their abominations <8251 shiqquwts >?

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

when ye make your sons <1121 ben > to pass <5674 <abar > through

the fire <0784 >esh >, ye pollute <2930 tame> > yourselves with

all <3605 kol > your idols <1544 gilluwl >, even unto this day

<3117 yowm >: and shall I be enquired <1875 darash > of by you,

O house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >? [As] I live

<2416 chay >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD

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

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

34 And I will bring <3318 yatsa> > you out from the people

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

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

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

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

38 And I will purge <1305 barar > out from among you the rebels

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

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

Ezekiel 21

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

3 And say <0559 >amar > to the land <0127 >adamah > of Israel

<3478 Yisra>el >, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD

<3772 karath > off from thee the righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > and

the wicked <7563 rasha< >.

4 Seeing <3282 ya<an > then that I will cut <3772 karath > off

from thee the righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > and the wicked <7563

rasha< >, therefore shall my sword <2719 chereb > go <3318

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

7 And it shall be, when <3588 kiy > they say <0559 >amar > unto

thee, Wherefore sighest <0584 >anach > thou? that thou shalt

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

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

8. Again the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

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

9 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, prophesy <5012 naba> >,

and say <0559 >amar >, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah >; Say <0559 >amar >, A sword <2719 chereb >,

a sword <2719 chereb > is sharpened <2300 chadad >, and also

<1571 gam > furbished <4803 marat >:

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

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

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

of my son <1121 ben >, [as] every <3605 kol > tree <6086 <ets >.

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

the slayer <2026 harag >.

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

man <0120 >adam >: for it shall be upon my people <5971 <am >,

it [shall be] upon all <3605 kol > the princes <5387 nasiy> > of

13 Because <3588 kiy > [it is] a trial <0974 bachan >, and what

<4100 mah > if <0518 >im > [the sword] contemn <3988 ma>ac >

even <1571 gam > the rod <7626 shebet >? it shall be no <3808

<3069 Y@hovih >.

14 Thou therefore, son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >,

prophesy <5012 naba> >, and smite <5221 nakah > [thine] hands

<3709 kaph > together, and let the sword <2719 chereb > be

doubled <3717 kaphal > the third <7992 sh@liyshiy > time, the

sword <2719 chereb > of the slain <2491 chalal >: it [is] the

sword <2719 chereb > of the great <1419 gadowl > [men that are]

slain <2491 chalal >, which entereth into their privy <2314

15 I have set <5414 nathan > the point <19> of the sword <2719

ah <0253 >ach >! [it is] made bright <1300 baraq >, [it is]

wrapped <4593 ma<ot > up for the slaughter <2875 Tebach >.

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

right <3231 yaman > hand <3221 yam >, [or] on the left <8041

set <3259 ya<ad >.

17 I will also <1571 gam > smite <5221 nakah > mine hands <3709

kaph > together, and I will cause my fury <2534 chemah > to rest

<5117 nuwach >: I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have said <1696 dabar

18. The word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came

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

19 Also, thou son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, appoint

<7760 suwm > thee two <8147 sh@nayim > ways <1870 derek >, that

the sword <2719 chereb > of the king <4428 melek > of Babylon

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

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

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

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

24 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >

25 And thou, profane <2491 chalal > wicked <7563 rasha< >

Ezekiel 22

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

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

2 Now, thou son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, wilt thou

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

defiled <2930 tame> > thyself in thine idols <1544 gilluwl >

caused thy days <3117 yowm > to draw near <7126 qarab >, and art

therefore <3651 ken > have I made <5414 nathan > thee a reproach

6 Behold <2009 hinneh >, the princes <5387 nasiy> > of Israel

thee to their power <2220 z@rowa< > to shed <8210 shaphak >

8 Thou hast despised <0959 bazah > mine holy <6944 qodesh >

9 In thee are men <0582 >enowsh > that carry <7400 rakiyl >

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

which <0834 >aher > hath been <1961 hayah > in the midst <8432

tavek > of thee.

14 Can thine heart <3820 leb > endure <5975 <amad >, or can

thine hands <3027 yad > be strong <2388 chazaq >, in the days

<3117 yowm > that I shall deal <6213 <asah > with thee? I the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have spoken <1696 dabar > [it], and will do

<6213 <asah > [it].

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

<1471 gowy >, and disperse <2219 zarah > thee in the countries

<0776 >erets >, and will consume <8552 tamam > thy filthiness

<2932 tum>ah > out of thee.

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

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

and thou shalt know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068

Y@hovah >.

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

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

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

<5509 ciyg >: all <3605 kol > they [are] brass <5178 n@chosheth

<5777 <owphereth >, in the midst <8432 tavek > of the furnace

<3564 kuwr >; they are [even] the dross <5509 ciyg > of silver

<3701 keceph >.

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

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

ya<an > ye are all <3605 kol > become <1961 hayah > dross <5509

ciyg >, behold <2005 hen >, therefore <3651 ken > I will gather

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

Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >.

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

brass <5178 n@chosheth >, and iron <1270 barzel >, and lead

<5777 <owphereth >, and tin <0913 b@diyl >, into <0413 >el > the

midst <8432 tavek > of the furnace <3564 kuwr >, to blow <5301

naphach > the fire <0784 >esh > upon it, to melt <5413 nathak >

[it]; so <3651 ken > will I gather <6908 qabats > [you] in mine

anger <0639 >aph > and in my fury <2534 chemah >, and I will

leave <3241 Yaniym > [you there], and melt <5413 nathak > you.

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

and ye shall be melted <5413 nathak > in the midst <8432 tavek >

thereof.

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

midst <8432 tavek > of the furnace <3564 kuwr >, so <3651 ken >

shall ye be melted <5413 nathak > in the midst <8432 tavek >

thereof; and ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > have poured <8210 shaphak > out my fury <2534 chemah >

upon you.

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

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

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

her, Thou [art] the land <0776 >erets > that is not cleansed

<2891 taher >, nor <3808 lo> > rained <1656 goshem > upon in the

day <3117 yowm > of indignation <2195 za<am >.

25 [There is] a conspiracy <7195 qesher > of her prophets <5030

nabiy> > in the midst <8432 tavek > thereof, like a roaring

<7580 sha>ag > lion <0738 >ariy > ravening <2963 taraph > the

prey <2964 tereph >; they have devoured <0398 >akal > souls

<5315 nephesh >; they have taken <3947 laqach > the treasure

<2633 chocen > and precious <3366 y@qar > things; they have made

her many <7235 rabah > widows <0490 >almanah > in the midst

<8432 tavek > thereof.

26 Her priests <3548 kohen > have violated <2554 chamac > my

law <8451 towrah >, and have profaned <2490 chalal > mine holy

<6944 qodesh > things: they have put no <3808 lo> > difference

between <0996 beyn > the holy <6944 qodesh > and profane <2455

chol >, neither <3808 lo> > have they shewed <3045 yada< >

[difference] between <0996 beyn > the unclean <2931 tame> > and

the clean <2889 tahowr >, and have hid <5956 <alam > their eyes

<5869 <ayin > from my sabbaths <7676 shabbath >, and I am

profaned <2490 chalal > among <8432 tavek > them.

27 Her princes <8269 sar > in the midst <7130 qereb > thereof

[are] like wolves <2061 z@>eb > ravening <2963 taraph > the prey

<2964 tereph >, to shed <8210 shaphak > blood <1818 dam >, [and]

to destroy <6> souls <5315 nephesh >, to get <1214 batsa< >

dishonest <1215 betsa< > gain <1214 batsa< >.

28 And her prophets <5030 nabiy> > have daubed <2902 tuwach >

them with untempered <8602 taphel > [morter], seeing vanity

<7723 shav> >, and divining <7080 qacam > lies <3576 kazab >

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

>amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >, when the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath not spoken <1696 dabar >.

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

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

and have vexed <3238 yanah > the poor <6041 <aniy > and needy

<34>: yea, they have oppressed <6231 <ashaq > the stranger <1616

ger > wrongfully.

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

them, that should make <1443 gadar > up the hedge <1447 gader >,

and stand <5975 <amad > in the gap <6556 perets > before <6440

paniym > me for the land <0776 >erets >, that I should not

destroy <7843 shachath > it: but I found <4672 matsa> > none

<3808 lo> >.

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

<2195 za<am > upon them; I have consumed <3615 kalah > them with

the fire <0784 >esh > of my wrath <5678 <ebrah >: their own way

<1870 derek > have I recompensed <5414 nathan > upon their heads

<7218 ro>sh >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD

<3069 Y@hovih >.

Ezekiel 23

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

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

2 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, there were two <8147

sh@nayim > women <0802 >ishshah >, the daughters <1121 ben > of

one <0259 >echad > mother <0517 >em >:

3 And they committed <2181 zanah > whoredoms in Egypt <4714

Mitsrayim >; they committed <2181 zanah > whoredoms in their

youth <5271 na<uwr >: there <8033 sham > were their breasts

<7699 shad > pressed <4600 ma<ak >, and there <8033 sham > they

bruised <6213 <asah > the teats <1717 dad > of their virginity

<1331 b@thuwliym >.

4 And the names <8034 shem > of them [were] Aholah <0170

>Oholah > the elder <1419 gadowl >, and Aholibah <0172

>Oholiybah > her sister <0269 >achowth >: and they were mine,

and they bare <3205 yalad > sons <1121 ben > and daughters <1121

ben >. Thus [were] their names <8034 shem >; Samaria <8111

Shom@rown > [is] Aholah <0170 >Oholah >, and Jerusalem <3389

Y@ruwshalaim > Aholibah <0172 >Oholiybah >.

5 And Aholah <0170 >Oholah > played the harlot <2181 zanah >

when she was mine; and she doted <5689 <agab > on <0413 >el >

her lovers <0157 >ahab >, on <0413 >el > the Assyrians <0804

>Ashshuwr > [her] neighbours <7138 qarowb >,

6 [Which were] clothed <3847 labash > with blue <8504 t@keleth

kol > of them desirable <2531 chemed > young <0970 bachuwr > men,

horsemen <6571 parash > riding <7392 rakab > upon horses <5483

cuwc >.

7 Thus she committed <5414 nathan > her whoredoms <8457

taznuwth > with them, with all them [that were] the chosen <4005

mibchar > men <1121 ben > of Assyria <0804 >Ashshuwr >, and with

all <3605 kol > on whom <0834 >aher > she doted <5689 <agab >:

with all <3605 kol > their idols <1544 gilluwl > she defiled

<2930 tame> > herself.

8 Neither <3808 lo> > left <5800 <azab > she her whoredoms

<8457 taznuwth > [brought] from Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >: for in

her youth <5271 na<uwr > they lay <7901 shakab > with her, and

they bruised <6213 <asah > the breasts <1717 dad > of her

virginity <1331 b@thuwliym >, and poured <8210 shaphak > their

whoredom <8457 taznuwth > upon her.

9 Wherefore <3651 ken > I have delivered <5414 nathan > her

into the hand <3027 yad > of her lovers <0157 >ahab >, into the

hand <3027 yad > of the Assyrians <0804 >Ashshuwr >, upon whom

<0834 >aher > she doted <5689 <agab >.

10 These <1992 hem > discovered <1540 galah > her nakedness

<6172 <ervah >: they took <3947 laqach > her sons <1121 ben >

and her daughters <1121 ben >, and slew her with the sword <2719

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

women <0802 >ishshah >; for they had executed <6213 <asah >

judgment <8196 sh@phowt > upon her.

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

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

corrupt <7843 shachath > in her inordinate <5691 <agabah > love

<5691 <agabah > than she, and in her whoredoms <8457 taznuwth >

more than her sister <0269 >achowth > in [her] whoredoms <2183

zanuwn >.

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

[her] neighbours <7138 qarowb >, captains <6346 pechah > and

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

<4358 miklowl >, horsemen <6571 parash > riding <7392 rakab >

upon horses <5483 cuwc >, all <3605 kol > of them desirable

<2531 chemed > young <0970 bachuwr > men.

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

[that] they [took] both <8147 sh@nayim > one <0259 >echad > way

<1870 derek >,

14 And [that] she increased <3254 yacaph > her whoredoms <8457

taznuwth >: for when she saw <7200 ra>ah > men <0582 >enowsh >

pourtrayed <2707 chaqah > upon the wall <7023 qiyr >, the images

<6754 tselem > of the Chaldeans <3779 Kasday > pourtrayed <2710

chaqaq > with vermilion <8350 shashar >,

15 Girded <2289 chagowr > with girdles <0232 >ezowr > upon

their loins <4975 mothen >, exceeding <5628 carach > in dyed

<2871 tabuwl > attire <2871 tabuwl > upon their heads <7218

ro>sh >, all <3605 kol > of them princes <7991 shaliysh > to

look <4758 mar>eh > to, after the manner <1823 d@muwth > of the

Babylonians of Chaldea <3778 Kasdiy >, the land <0776 >erets >

of their nativity <4138 mowledeth >:

16 And as soon <4758 mar>eh > as she saw them with her eyes

<5869 <ayin >, she doted <5689 <agab > upon them, and sent <7971

shalach > messengers <4397 mal>ak > unto them into Chaldea <3778

Kasdiy >.

17 And the Babylonians came <0935 bow> > to her into the bed

<4904 mishkab > of love <1730 dowd >, and they defiled <2930

tame> > her with their whoredom <8457 taznuwth >, and she was

polluted <2930 tame> > with them, and her mind <5315 nephesh >

was alienated <3363 yaqa< > from them.

18 So she discovered <1540 galah > her whoredoms <8457 taznuwth

>, and discovered <1540 galah > her nakedness <6172 <ervah >:

then my mind <5315 nephesh > was alienated <3363 yaqa< > from

her, like as my mind <5315 nephesh > was alienated <5361 naqa< >

from her sister <0269 >achowth >.

19 Yet she multiplied <7235 rabah > her whoredoms <8457

taznuwth >, in calling <2142 zakar > to remembrance <2142 zakar

> the days <3117 yowm > of her youth <5271 na<uwr >, wherein

<0834 >aher > she had played the harlot <2181 zanah > in the

land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >.

20 For she doted <5689 <agab > upon their paramours <6370

piylegesh >, whose flesh <1320 basar > [is as] the flesh <1320

basar > of asses <2543 chamowr >, and whose issue <2231 zirmah >

[is like] the issue <2231 zirmah > of horses <5483 cuwc >.

21 Thus thou calledst <6485 paqad > to remembrance <6485 paqad

> the lewdness <2154 zimmah > of thy youth <5271 na<uwr >, in

bruising <6213 <asah > thy teats <1717 dad > by the Egyptians

<4714 Mitsrayim > for the paps <7699 shad > of thy youth <5271

na<uwr >.

22. Therefore <3651 ken >, O Aholibah <0172 >Oholiybah >, thus

<3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD

<3069 Y@hovih >; Behold <2005 hen >, I will raise <5782 <uwr >

up thy lovers <0157 >ahab > against <5921 <al > thee, from whom

thy mind <5315 nephesh > is alienated <5361 naqa< >, and I will

bring <0935 bow> > them against <5921 <al > thee on every <5437

cabab > side <5439 cabiyb >;

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

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

<6970 Qowa< >, [and] all <3605 kol > the Assyrians <0804

>Ashshuwr > with them: all <3605 kol > of them desirable <2531

chemed > young <0970 bachuwr > men, captains <6346 pechah > and

rulers <5461 cagan >, great <7991 shaliysh > lords <7991

shaliysh > and renowned <7121 qara> >, all <3605 kol > of them

riding <7392 rakab > upon horses <5483 cuwc >.

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

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

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

<5971 <am >, [which] shall set <7760 suwm > against <5921 <al >

thee buckler <6793 tsinnah > and shield <4043 magen > and helmet

<6959 qowba< > round <5439 cabiyb > about: and I will set <5414

nathan > judgment <4941 mishpat > before <6440 paniym > them,

and they shall judge <8199 shaphat > thee according to their

judgments <4941 mishpat >.

25 And I will set <5414 nathan > my jealousy <7068 qin>ah >

against thee, and they shall deal <6213 <asah > furiously <2534

chemah > with thee: they shall take <5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr

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

26 They shall also strip <6584 pashat > thee out of thy clothes

<0899 beged >, and take <3947 laqach > away thy fair <8597

tiph>arah > jewels <3627 k@liy >.

27 Thus will I make thy lewdness <2154 zimmah > to cease <7673

shabath > from thee, and thy whoredom <2184 z@nuwth > [brought]

from the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >: so that

thou shalt not lift <5375 nasa> > up thine eyes <5869 <ayin >

unto them, nor <3808 lo> > remember <2142 zakar > Egypt <4714

Mitsrayim > any more <5750 <owd >.

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

>Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Behold <2005 hen >, I will

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

whom <0834 >aher > thou hatest <8130 sane> >, into the hand

<3027 yad > [of them] from whom <0834 >aher > thy mind <5315

nephesh > is alienated <5361 naqa< >:

29 And they shall deal <6213 <asah > with thee hatefully <8135

sin>ah >, and shall take <3947 laqach > away all <3605 kol > thy

labour <3018 y@giya< >, and shall leave <5800 <azab > thee naked

<5903 <eyrom > and bare <6181 <eryah >: and the nakedness <6172

<ervah > of thy whoredoms <2183 zanuwn > shall be discovered

<1540 galah >, both thy lewdness <2154 zimmah > and thy

whoredoms <8457 taznuwth >.

30 I will do <6213 <asah > these <0428 >el-leh > [things] unto

thee, because thou hast gone a whoring <2181 zanah > after <0310

>achar > the heathen <1471 gowy >, [and] because thou art

polluted <2930 tame> > with their idols <1544 gilluwl >.

31 Thou hast walked <1980 halak > in the way <1870 derek > of

thy sister <0269 >achowth >; therefore will I give <5414 nathan

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

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

Samaria <8111 Shom@rown >.

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

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

<2789 cheres > thereof, and pluck <5423 nathaq > off thine own

breasts <7699 shad >: for I have spoken <1696 dabar > [it],

saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

me; Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, wilt thou judge <8199

shaphat > Aholah <0170 >Oholah > and Aholibah <0172 >Oholiybah

tow<ebah >;

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

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

and with their idols <1544 gilluwl > have they committed <5003

na>aph > adultery <5003 na>aph >, and have also <1571 gam >

caused their sons <1121 ben >, whom <0834 >aher > they bare

<3205 yalad > unto me, to pass <5674 <abar > for them through

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

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

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

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

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

39 For when they had slain <7819 shachat > their children <1121

<2009 hinneh >, thus <3541 koh > have they done <6213 <asah > in

the midst <8432 tavek > of mine house <1004 bayith >.

40 And furthermore <0637 >aph >, that ye have sent <7971

shalach > for men <0582 >enowsh > to come <0935 bow> > from far

<4801 merchaq >, unto whom a messenger <4397 mal>ak > [was] sent

<7971 shalach >; and, lo <2009 hinneh >, they came <0935 bow> >:

for whom <0834 >aher > thou didst wash <7364 rachats > thyself,

paintedst <3583 kachal > thy eyes <5869 <ayin >, and deckedst

<5710 <adah > thyself with ornaments <5716 <adiy >,

41 And satest <3427 yashab > upon a stately <3520 k@buwddah >

bed <4296 mittah >, and a table <7979 shulchan > prepared <6186

<arak > before <6440 paniym > it, whereupon <5921 <al > thou

hast set <7760 suwm > mine incense <7004 q@toreth > and mine oil

<8081 shemen >.

42 And a voice <6963 qowl > of a multitude <1995 hamown > being

at ease <7961 shalev > [was] with her: and with the men <0582

>enowsh > of the common <7230 rob > sort [were] brought <0935

bow> > Sabeans <5433 caba> > from the wilderness <4057 midbar >,

which put <5414 nathan > bracelets <6781 tsamiyd > upon their

hands <3027 yad >, and beautiful <8597 tiph>arah > crowns <5850

<atarah > upon their heads <7218 ro>sh >.

43 Then said <0559 >amar > I unto [her that was] old <1087

baleh > in adulteries <5004 ni>uph >, Will they now <6258 <attah

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

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

Ezekiel 24

1. Again in the ninth <8671 t@shiy<iy > year <8141 shaneh >, in

the tenth <6224 <asiyriy > month <2320 chodesh >, in the tenth

<6218 <asowr > [day] of the month <2320 chodesh >, the word

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

unto me, saying <0559 >amar >,

2 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, write <3789 kathab >

thee the name <8034 shem > of the day <3117 yowm >, [even] of

this <2088 zeh > same <6106 <etsem > day <3117 yowm >: the king

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

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

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

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

pot <5518 ciyr >, set <8239 shaphath > [it] on, and also <1571

gam > pour <3332 yatsaq > water <4325 mayim > into it:

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

it, [even] every <3605 kol > good <2896 towb > piece <5409

nethach >, the thigh <3409 yarek >, and the shoulder <3802

katheph >; fill <4390 male> > [it] with the choice <4005 mibchar

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

<6629 tso>n >, and burn <1754 duwr > also <1571 gam > the bones

<6106 <etsem > under <8478 tachath > it, [and] make it boil

<7570 rathach > well <7571 rethach >, and let them seethe <1310

bashal > the bones <6106 <etsem > of it therein <8432 tavek >.

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

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

to the bloody <1818 dam > city <5892 <iyr >, to the pot <5518

ciyr > whose <0834 >aher > scum <2457 chel>ah > [is] therein,

and whose scum <2457 chel>ah > is not gone <3318 yatsa> > out of

it! bring <3318 yatsa> > it out piece <5409 nethach > by piece

<5409 nethach >; let no <3808 lo> > lot <1486 gowral > fall

<5307 naphal > upon it.

7 For her blood <1818 dam > is in the midst <8432 tavek > of

her; she set <7760 suwm > it upon the top <6706 ts@chiyach > of

a rock <5553 cela< >; she poured <8210 shaphak > it not upon the

ground <0776 >erets >, to cover <3680 kacah > it with dust <6083

<aphar >;

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

up to take vengeance <5359 naqam >; I have set <5414 nathan >

her blood <1818 dam > upon the top <6706 ts@chiyach > of a rock

<5553 cela< >, that it should not be covered <3680 kacah >.

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

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

to the bloody <1818 dam > city <5892 <iyr >! I will even make

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

basar >, and spice <7543 raqach > it well, and let the bones

<6106 <etsem > be burned <2787 charar >.

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

<1513 gechel > thereof, that the brass <5178 n@chosheth > of it

may be hot <3179 yacham >, and may burn <2787 charar >, and

[that] the filthiness <2932 tum>ah > of it may be molten <5413

nathak > in it, [that] the scum <2457 chel>ah > of it may be

consumed <8552 tamam >.

12 She hath wearied <3811 la>ah > [herself] with lies <8383

<3318 yatsa> > not forth <3318 yatsa> > out of her: her scum

<2457 chel>ah > [shall be] in the fire <0784 >esh >.

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

thou wast not purged <2891 taher >, thou shalt not be purged

<owd >, till <5704 <ad > I have caused my fury <2534 chemah > to

rest <5117 nuwach > upon thee.

14 I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have spoken <1696 dabar > [it]:

it shall come <0835 >esher > to pass, and I will do <6213 <asah

I repent <5162 nacham >; according to thy ways <1870 derek >,

and according to thy doings <5949 <aliylah >, shall they judge

<8199 shaphat > thee, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay

15. Also the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

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

16 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, behold <2005 hen >, I

take <3947 laqach > away from thee the desire <4261 machmad > of

thine eyes <5869 <ayin > with a stroke <4046 maggephah >: yet

neither <3808 lo> > shalt thou mourn <5594 caphad > nor <3808

lo> > weep <1058 bakah >, neither <3808 lo> > shall thy tears

<1832 dim<ah > run <0935 bow> > down.

17 Forbear <1826 damam > to cry <0602 >anaq >, make <6213 <asah

<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-

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

of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came <1961 hayah > unto me, saying

<0559 >amar >,

21 Speak <0559 >amar > unto the house <1004 bayith > of Israel

<3478 Yisra>el >, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord

<0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Behold <2005 hen >, I will

profane <2490 chalal > my sanctuary <4720 miqdash >, the

excellency <1347 ga>own > of your strength <5797 <oz >, the

desire <4261 machmad > of your eyes <5869 <ayin >, and that

which your soul <5315 nephesh > pitieth <4263 machmal >; and

your sons <1121 ben > and your daughters <1121 ben > whom <0834

>aher > ye have left <5800 <azab > shall fall <5307 naphal > by

the sword <2719 chereb >.

22 And ye shall do <6213 <asah > as I have done <6213 <asah >:

ye shall not cover <5844 <atah > [your] lips <8222 sapham >, nor

<3808 lo> > eat <0398 >akal > the bread <3899 lechem > of men

<0582 >enowsh >.

23 And your tires <6287 p@>er > [shall be] upon your heads

<7218 ro>sh >, and your shoes <5275 na<al > upon your feet <7272

regel >: ye shall not mourn <5594 caphad > nor <3808 lo> > weep

<1058 bakah >; but ye shall pine <4743 maqaq > away for your

iniquities <5771 <avon >, and mourn <5098 naham > one <0376

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

>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

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

<3282 ya<an > thou saidst <0559 >amar >, Aha <0253 >ach >,

against <0413 >el > my sanctuary <4720 miqdash >, when <3588 kiy

house <1004 bayith > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >, when <3588 kiy >

they went into captivity <1473 gowlah >;

4 Behold <2005 hen >, therefore <3651 ken > I will deliver

<5414 nathan > thee to the men <1121 ben > of the east <6924

qedem > for a possession <4181 mowrashah >, and they shall set

<3427 yashab > their palaces <2918 tiyrah > in thee, and make

<5414 nathan > their dwellings <4908 mishkan > in thee: they

shall eat <0398 >akal > thy fruit <6529 p@riy >, and they shall

drink <8354 shathah > thy milk <2461 chalab >.

5 And I will make <5414 nathan > Rabbah <7237 Rabbah > a stable

<5116 naveh > for camels <1581 gamal >, and the Ammonites <5984

<Ammowniy > a couchingplace <4769 marbets > for flocks <6629

tso>n >: and ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah >.

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

>Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Because <3282 ya<an > thou hast

clapped <4222 macha> > [thine] hands <3027 yad >, and stamped

<7554 raqa< > with the feet <7272 regel >, and rejoiced <8055

samach > in heart <5315 nephesh > with all <3605 kol > thy

despite <7589 sh@>at > against <0413 >el > the land <0127

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

<3068 Y@hovah >.

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

Mow>ab > and Seir <8165 Se<iyr > do say <0559 >amar >, Behold

<2009 hinneh >, the house <1004 bayith > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah

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

<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

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

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

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

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

<6430 P@lishtiy > have dealt <6213 <asah > by revenge <5360

despiteful <7589 sh@>at > heart <5315 nephesh >, to destroy

<4889 mashchiyth > [it] for the old <5769 <owlam > hatred <0342

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

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

I will stretch <5186 natah > out mine hand <3027 yad > upon the

Philistines <6430 P@lishtiy >, and I will cut <3772 karath > off

the Cherethims <3774 K@rethiy >, and destroy <9> the remnant

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

17 And I will execute <6213 <asah > great <1419 gadowl >

vengeance <5360 n@qamah > upon them with furious <2534 chemah >

rebukes <8433 towkechah >; and they shall know <3045 yada< >

that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, when I shall lay <5414

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

I [am] against <5921 <al > thee, O Tyrus <6865 Tsor >, and will

cause many <7227 rab > nations <1471 gowy > to come <5927 <alah

his waves <1530 gal > to come <5927 <alah > up.

4 And they shall destroy <7843 shachath > the walls <2346

chowmah > of Tyrus <6865 Tsor >, and break <2040 harac > down

<2040 harac > her towers <4026 migdal >: I will also scrape

<5500 cachah > her dust <6083 <aphar > from her, and make <5414

nathan > her like the top <6706 ts@chiyach > of a rock <5553

cela< >.

5 It shall be [a place for] the spreading <4894 mishtowach > of

nets <2764 cherem > in the midst <8432 tavek > of the sea <3220

yam >: for I have spoken <1696 dabar > [it], saith <5002 n@>um >

the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >: and it shall

become <1961 hayah > a spoil <0957 baz > to the nations <1471

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

the field <7704 sadeh > shall be slain <2026 harag > by the

sword <2719 chereb >; and they shall know <3045 yada< > that I

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

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

>Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Behold <2005 hen >, I will bring

<0935 bow> > upon Tyrus <6865 Tsor > Nebuchadrezzar <5019

N@buwkadne>tstsar > king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel >,

a king <4428 melek > of kings <4428 melek >, from the north

<7393 rekeb >, and with horsemen <6571 parash >, and companies

<6951 qahal >, and much <7227 rab > people <5971 <am >.

8 He shall slay <4191 muwth > with the sword <2719 chereb > thy

daughters <1121 ben > in the field <7704 sadeh >: and he shall

make <5414 nathan > a fort <1785 dayeq > against <5921 <al >

thee, and cast <8210 shaphak > a mount <5550 col@lah > against

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

9 And he shall set <5414 nathan > engines <4239 m@chiy > of war

<6904 qobel > against thy walls <2346 chowmah >, and with his

axes <2719 chereb > he shall break <5422 nathats > down <5422

nathats > thy towers <4026 migdal >.

10 By reason of the abundance <8229 shiph<ah > of his horses

<5483 cuwc > their dust <80> shall cover <3680 kacah > thee: thy

walls <2346 chowmah > shall shake <7493 ra<ash > at the noise

<6963 qowl > of the horsemen <6571 parash >, and of the wheels

<1534 galgal >, and of the chariots <7393 rekeb >, when he shall

enter <0935 bow> > into thy gates <8179 sha<ar >, as men enter

<0935 bow> > into a city <5892 <iyr > wherein is made a breach

<1234 baqa< >.

11 With the hoofs <6541 parcah > of his horses <5483 cuwc >

shall he tread <7429 ramac > down all <3605 kol > thy streets

<2351 chuwts >: he shall slay <4191 muwth > thy people <5971 <am

garrisons <4676 matstsebah > shall go <3381 yarad > down <3381

yarad > to the ground <0776 >erets >.

12 And they shall make <5414 nathan > a spoil <7997 shalal > of

thy riches <2428 chayil >, and make a prey <0962 bazaz > of thy

merchandise <7404 r@kullah >: and they shall break <2040 harac >

down <2040 harac > thy walls <2346 chowmah >, and destroy <5422

nathats > thy pleasant <2532 chemdah > houses <1004 bayith >:

and they shall lay <7760 suwm > thy stones <68> and thy timber

<6086 <ets > and thy dust <6083 <aphar > in the midst <8432

tavek > of the water <4325 mayim >.

13 And I will cause the noise <1995 hamown > of thy songs <7892

shiyr > to cease <7673 shabath >; and the sound <6963 qowl > of

thy harps <3658 kinnowr > shall be no <3808 lo> > more <5750

<owd > heard <8085 shama< >.

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

rock <5558 celeph >: thou shalt be [a place] to spread <4894

mishtowach > nets <2764 cherem > upon; thou shalt be built <1129

banah > no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd >: for I the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > have spoken <1696 dabar > [it], saith <5002 n@>um >

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

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

<0339 >iy > shake <7493 ra<ash > at the sound <6963 qowl > of

thy fall <4658 mappeleth >, when the wounded <2491 chalal > cry

<0602 >anaq >, when the slaughter <2027 hereg > is made in the

midst <8432 tavek > of thee?

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

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

their thrones <3678 kicce> >, and lay <5493 cuwr > away <5493

cuwr > their robes <4598 m@<iyl >, and put <6584 pashat > off

their broidered <7553 riqmah > garments <0899 beged >: they

charadah >; they shall sit <3427 yashab > upon the ground <0776

<7281 rega< >, and be astonished <8074 shamem > at thee.

17 And they shall take <5375 nasa> > up a lamentation <7015

qiynah > for thee, and say <0559 >amar > to thee, How <0349 >eyk

<5892 <iyr >, which <0834 >aher > wast strong <2389 chazaq > in

the sea <3220 yam >, she and her inhabitants <3427 yashab >,

which <0834 >aher > cause <5414 nathan > their terror <2851

chittiyth > [to be] on all <3605 kol > that haunt <3427 yashab >

it!

18 Now <6258 <attah > shall the isles <0339 >iy > tremble <2729

yea, the isles <0339 >iy > that [are] in the sea <3220 yam >

shall be troubled <0926 bahal > at thy departure <3318 yatsa> >.

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

>Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; When I shall make <5414 nathan >

thee a desolate <2717 charab > city <5892 <iyr >, like the

cities <5892 <iyr > that are not inhabited <3427 yashab >; when

I shall bring <5927 <alah > up the deep <8415 t@howm > upon thee,

and great <7227 rab > waters <4325 mayim > shall cover
