EZE-24:1 Again in the ninth year, in the tenth month, in the
tenth [day] of the month, the word of the LORD came unto me,
saying,
EZE-24:2 Son of man, write thee the name of the day, [even] of
this same day: the king of Babylon set himself against Jerusalem
this same day.
EZE-24:3 And utter a parable unto the rebellious house, and say
unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Set on a pot, set [it] on,
and also pour water into it:
EZE-24:4 Gather the pieces thereof into it, [even] every good
piece, the thigh, and the shoulder; fill [it] with the choice
bones.
EZE-24:5 Take the choice of the flock, and burn also the bones
under it, [and] make it boil well, and let them seethe the bones
of it therein.
EZE-24:6 Wherefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe to the bloody
city, to the pot whose scum [is] therein, and whose scum is not
gone out of it! bring it out piece by piece; let no lot fall
upon it.
EZE-24:7 For her blood is in the midst of her; she set it upon
the top of a rock; she poured it not upon the ground, to cover
it with dust;
EZE-24:8 That it might cause fury to come up to take vengeance;
I have set her blood upon the top of a rock, that it should not
be covered.
EZE-24:9 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe to the bloody
city! I will even make the pile for fire great.
EZE-24:10 Heap on wood, kindle the fire, consume the flesh, and
spice it well, and let the bones be burned.
EZE-24:11 Then set it empty upon the coals thereof, that the
brass of it may be hot, and may burn, and [that] the filthiness
of it may be molten in it, [that] the scum of it may be consumed.
EZE-24:12 She hath wearied [herself] with lies, and her great
scum went not forth out of her: her scum [shall be] in the fire.
EZE-24:13 In thy filthiness [is] lewdness: because I have purged
thee, and thou wast not purged, thou shalt not be purged from
thy filthiness any more, till I have caused my fury to rest upon
thee.
EZE-24:14 I the LORD have spoken [it]: it shall come to pass,
and I will do [it]; I will not go back, neither will I spare,
neither will I repent; according to thy ways, and according to
thy doings, shall they judge thee, saith the Lord GOD.
EZE-24:15 Also the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
EZE-24:16 Son of man, behold, I take away from thee the desire
of thine eyes with a stroke: yet neither shalt thou mourn nor
weep, neither shall thy tears run down.
EZE-24:17 Forbear to cry, make no mourning for the dead, bind
the tire of thine head upon thee, and put on thy shoes upon thy
feet, and cover not [thy] lips, and eat not the bread of men.
EZE-24:18 So I spake unto the people in the morning: and at even
my wife died; and I did in the morning as I was commanded.
EZE-24:19 And the people said unto me, Wilt thou not tell us
what these [things are] to us, that thou doest [so]?
EZE-24:20 Then I answered them, The word of the LORD came unto
me, saying,
EZE-24:21 Speak unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord
GOD; Behold, I will profane my sanctuary, the excellency of your
strength, the desire of your eyes, and that which your soul
pitieth; and your sons and your daughters whom ye have left
shall fall by the sword.
EZE-24:22 And ye shall do as I have done: ye shall not cover
[your] lips, nor eat the bread of men.
EZE-24:23 And your tires [shall be] upon your heads, and your
shoes upon your feet: ye shall not mourn nor weep; but ye shall
pine away for your iniquities, and mourn one toward another.
EZE-24:24 Thus Ezekiel is unto you a sign: according to all that
he hath done shall ye do: and when this cometh, ye shall know
that I [am] the Lord GOD.
EZE-24:25 Also, thou son of man, [shall it] not [be] in the day
when I take from them their strength, the joy of their glory,
the desire of their eyes, and that whereupon they set their
minds, their sons and their daughters,
EZE-24:26 [That] he that escapeth in that day shall come unto
thee, to cause [thee] to hear [it] with [thine] ears?
EZE-24:27 In that day shall thy mouth be opened to him which is
escaped, and thou shalt speak, and be no more dumb: and thou
shalt be a sign unto them; and they shall know that I [am] the
LORD.
