Ezekiel 1


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


Ezekiel 2


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


Ezekiel 3


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


 16. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass at the end <7097 qatseh > of seven <7651 sheba< > days <3117 yowm >, that the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came <1961 hayah > unto me, saying <0559 >amar >,


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


 18 When I say <0559 >amar > unto the wicked <7563 rasha< >, Thou shalt surely die <4191 muwth >; and thou givest him not warning <2094 zahar >, nor <3808 lo> > speakest <1696 dabar > to warn <2094 zahar > the wicked <7563 rasha< > from his wicked <7563 rasha< > way <1870 derek >, to save <2421 chayah > his life <2421 chayah >; the same <1931 huw> > wicked <7563 rasha< > [man] shall die <4191 muwth > in his iniquity <5771 <avon >; but his blood <1818 dam > will I require <1245 baqash > at thine hand <3027 yad >.


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


 20 Again <7725 shuwb >, When a righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > [man] doth turn <7725 shuwb > from his righteousness <6664 tsedeq >, and commit <6213 <asah > iniquity <5766 <evel >, and I lay <5414 nathan > a stumblingblock <4383 mikshowl > before <6440 paniym > him, he shall die <4191 muwth >: because <3588 kiy > thou hast not given him warning <2094 zahar >, he shall die <4191 muwth > in his sin <2403 chatta>ah >, and his righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > which <0834 >aher > he hath done <6213 <asah > shall not be remembered <2142 zakar >; but his blood <1818 dam > will I require <1245 baqash > at thine hand <3027 yad >.


 21 Nevertheless if <3588 kiy > thou warn <2094 zahar > the righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > [man], that the righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > sin <2398 chata> > not, and he doth not sin <2398 chata> >, he shall surely live <2421 chayah >, because <3588 kiy > he is warned <2094 zahar >; also thou hast delivered <5337 natsal > thy soul <5315 nephesh >.


 22. And the hand <3027 yad > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > was there <8033 sham > upon me; and he said <0559 >amar > unto me, Arise <6965 quwm >, go <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > into <0413 >el > the plain <1237 biq<ah >, and I will there <8033 sham > talk <1696 dabar > with thee.


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


 24 Then the spirit <7307 ruwach > entered <0935 bow> > into me, and set <5975 <amad > me upon my feet <7272 regel >, and spake <1696 dabar > with me, and said <0559 >amar > unto me, Go <0935 bow> >, shut <5462 cagar > thyself within <8432 tavek > thine house <1004 bayith >.


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


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


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


Ezekiel 4


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


 2 And lay <5414 nathan > siege <4692 matsowr > against <5921 <al > it, and build <1129 banah > a fort <1785 dayeq > against <5921 <al > it, and cast <8210 shaphak > a mount <5550 col@lah > against <5921 <al > it; set <5414 nathan > the camp <4264 machaneh > also against <5921 <al > it, and set <7760 suwm > [battering] rams <3733 kar > against <5921 <al > it round <5439 cabiyb > about.


 3 Moreover take <3947 laqach > thou unto thee an iron <1270 barzel > pan <4227 machabath >, and set <5414 nathan > it [for] a wall <7023 qiyr > of iron <1270 barzel > between <0996 beyn > thee and the city <5892 <iyr >: and set <3559 kuwn > thy face <6440 paniym > against <0413 >el > it, and it shall be besieged <4692 matsowr >, and thou shalt lay siege <6696 tsuwr > against <5921 <al > it. This <1931 huw> > [shall be] a sign <0226 >owth > to the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >.


 4 Lie <7901 shakab > thou also upon thy left <8042 s@ma>liy > side <6654 tsad >, and lay <7760 suwm > the iniquity <5771 <avon > of the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > upon it: [according] to the number <4557 micpar > of the days <3117 yowm > that thou shalt lie <7901 shakab > upon it thou shalt bear <5375 nasa> > their iniquity <5771 <avon >.


 5 For I have laid <5414 nathan > upon thee the years <8141 shaneh > of their iniquity <5771 <avon >, according to the number <4557 micpar > of the days <3117 yowm >, three <7969 shalowsh > hundred <3967 me>ah > and ninety <8673 tish<iym > days <3117 yowm >: so shalt thou bear <5375 nasa> > the iniquity <5771 <avon > of the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >.


 6 And when thou hast accomplished <3615 kalah > them, lie <7901 shakab > again <8145 sheniy > on <5921 <al > thy right <6227 <ashan > side <6654 tsad >, and thou shalt bear <5375 nasa> > the iniquity <5771 <avon > of the house <1004 bayith > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > forty <0705 >arba<iym > days <3117 yowm >: I have appointed <5414 nathan > thee each day <3117 yowm > for a year <8141 shaneh >.


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


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


 9. Take <3947 laqach > thou also unto thee wheat <2406 chittah >, and barley <8184 s@<orah >, and beans <6321 powl >, and lentiles <5742 <adash >, and millet <1764 dochan >, and fitches <3698 kuccemeth >, and put <5414 nathan > them in one <0259 >echad > vessel <3627 k@liy >, and make <6213 <asah > thee bread <3899 lechem > thereof, [according] to the number <4557 micpar > of the days <3117 yowm > that thou shalt lie <7901 shakab > upon thy side <6654 tsad >, three <7969 shalowsh > hundred <3967 me>ah > and ninety <8673 tish<iym > days <3117 yowm > shalt thou eat <0398 >akal > thereof.


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


 11 Thou shalt drink <8354 shathah > also water <4325 mayim > by measure <4884 m@suwrah >, the sixth <8345 shishshiy > part of an hin <1969 hiyn >: from time <6256 <eth > to time <6256 <eth > shalt thou drink <8354 shathah >.



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


 13 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar >, Even <3602 kakah > thus <3602 kakah > shall the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > eat <0398 >akal > their defiled <2931 tame> > bread <3899 lechem > among the Gentiles <1471 gowy >, whither I will drive <5080 nadach > them.


 14 Then said <0559 >amar > I, Ah <0162 >ahahh > Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >! behold <2009 hinneh >, my soul <5315 nephesh > hath not been polluted <2930 tame> >: for from my youth <5271 na<uwr > up even till <5704 <ad > now <6258 <attah > have I not eaten <0398 >akal > of that which dieth <5038 n@belah > of itself, or is torn <2966 t@rephah > in pieces; neither <3808 lo> > came <0935 bow> > there abominable <6292 pigguwl > flesh <1320 basar > into my mouth <6310 peh >.


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


 16 Moreover he said <0559 >amar > unto me, Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, behold <2005 hen >, I will break <7665 shabar > the staff <4294 matteh > of bread <3899 lechem > in Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >: and they shall eat <0398 >akal > bread <3899 lechem > by weight <4948 mishqal >, and with care <1674 d@>agah >; and they shall drink <8354 shathah > water <4325 mayim > by measure <4884 m@suwrah >, and with astonishment <8078 shimmamown >:


 17 That they may want <2637 chacer > bread <3899 lechem > and water <4325 mayim >, and be astonied <8074 shamem > one <0376 >iysh > with another <0250 >Ezrachiy >, and consume <4743 maqaq > away for their iniquity <5771 <avon >.



Ezekiel 5


 1. And thou, son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, take <3947 laqach > thee a sharp <2299 chad > knife <2719 chereb >, take <3947 laqach > thee a barber's <1532 gallab > razor <8593 ta<ar >, and cause [it] to pass <5674 <abar > upon thine head <7218 ro>sh > and upon thy beard <2206 zaqan >: then take <3947 laqach > thee balances <3976 mo>zen > to weigh <4948 mishqal >, and divide <2505 chalaq > the [hair].


 2 Thou shalt burn <1197 ba<ar > with fire <0217 >uwr > a third <7992 sh@liyshiy > part in the midst <8432 tavek > of the city <5892 <iyr >, when the days <3117 yowm > of the siege <4692 matsowr > are fulfilled <4390 male> >: and thou shalt take <3947 laqach > a third <7992 sh@liyshiy > part, [and] smite <5221 nakah > about <5439 cabiyb > it with a knife <2719 chereb >: and a third <7992 sh@liyshiy > part thou shalt scatter <2219 zarah > in the wind <7307 ruwach >; and I will draw <7324 ruwq > out a sword <2719 chereb > after <0310 >achar > them.


 3 Thou shalt also take <3947 laqach > thereof a few <4592 m@<at > in number <4557 micpar >, and bind <6887 tsarar > them in thy skirts <3671 kanaph >.


 4 Then take <3947 laqach > of them again <5750 <owd >, and cast <7993 shalak > them into <0413 >el > the midst <8432 tavek > of the fire <0784 >esh >, and burn <8313 saraph > them in the fire <0784 >esh >; [for] thereof shall a fire <0784 >esh > come <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > into <0413 >el > all <3605 kol > the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >.


 5. Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; This <2063 zo>th > [is] Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >: I have set <7760 suwm > it in the midst <8432 tavek > of the nations <1471 gowy > and countries <0776 >erets > [that are] round <5439 cabiyb > about her.


 6 And she hath changed <4171 muwr > my judgments <4941 mishpat > into wickedness <7564 rish<ah > more <4480 min > than <4480 min > the nations <1471 gowy >, and my statutes <2708 chuqqah > more <4480 min > than <4480 min > the countries <0776 >erets > that [are] round <5439 cabiyb > about her: for they have refused <3988 ma>ac > my judgments <4941 mishpat > and my statutes <2708 chuqqah >, they have not walked <1980 halak > in them.


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


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


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


 10 Therefore <3651 ken > the fathers <1> shall eat <0398 >akal > the sons <1121 ben > in the midst <8432 tavek > of thee, and the sons <1121 ben > shall eat <0398 >akal > their fathers <1>; and I will execute <6213 <asah > judgments <8201 shephet > in thee, and the whole <3605 kol > remnant <7611 sh@>eriyth > of thee will I scatter <2219 zarah > into all <3605 kol > the winds <7307 ruwach >.


 11 Wherefore <3651 ken >, [as] I live <2416 chay >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Surely, because <3282 ya<an > thou hast defiled <2930 tame> > my sanctuary <4720 miqdash > with all <3605 kol > thy detestable <8251 shiqquwts > things, and with all <3605 kol > thine abominations <8441 tow<ebah >, therefore will I also <1571 gam > diminish <1639 gara< > [thee]; neither <1571 gam > shall mine eye <5869 <ayin > spare <2347 chuwc >, neither <1571 gam > will I have any pity <2550 chamal >.


 12 A third <7992 sh@liyshiy > part of thee shall die <4191 muwth > with the pestilence <1698 deber >, and with famine <7458 ra<ab > shall they be consumed <3615 kalah > in the midst <8432 tavek > of thee: and a third <7992 sh@liyshiy > part shall fall <5307 naphal > by the sword <2719 chereb > round <5439 cabiyb > about thee; and I will scatter <2219 zarah > a third <7992 sh@liyshiy > part into all <3605 kol > the winds <7307 ruwach >, and I will draw <7324 ruwq > out a sword <2719 chereb > after <0310 >achar > them.


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


 14 Moreover I will make <5414 nathan > thee waste <2723 chorbah >, and a reproach <2781 cherpah > among the nations <1471 gowy > that [are] round <5439 cabiyb > about thee, in the sight <5869 <ayin > of all <3605 kol > that pass <5674 <abar > by.


 15 So it shall be a reproach <2781 cherpah > and a taunt <1422 g@duwphah >, an instruction <4148 muwcar > and an astonishment <8047 shammah > unto the nations <1471 gowy > that [are] round <5439 cabiyb > about thee, when I shall execute <6213 <asah > judgments <8201 shephet > in thee in anger <0639 >aph > and in fury <2534 chemah > and in furious <2534 chemah > rebukes <8433 towkechah >. I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have spoken <1696 dabar > [it].


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


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


Ezekiel 6


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


 2 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, set <7760 suwm > thy face <6440 paniym > toward <0413 >el > the mountains <2022 har > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, and prophesy <5012 naba> > against <0413 >el > them,


 3 And say <0559 >amar >, Ye mountains <2022 har > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, hear <8085 shama< > the word <1697 dabar > of the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > to the mountains <2022 har >, and to the hills <1389 gib<ah >, to the rivers <0650 >aphiyq >, and to the valleys <1516 gay> >; Behold <2005 hen >, I, [even] I, will bring <0935 bow> > a sword <2719 chereb > upon you, and I will destroy <6> your high <1116 bamah > places.


 4 And your altars <4196 mizbeach > shall be desolate <8074 shamem >, and your images <2553 chamman > shall be broken <7665 shabar >: and I will cast <5307 naphal > down <5307 naphal > your slain <2491 chalal > [men] before <6440 paniym > your idols <1544 gilluwl >.


 5 And I will lay <5414 nathan > the dead carcases <6297 peger > of the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > before <6440 paniym > their idols <1544 gilluwl >; and I will scatter <2219 zarah > your bones <6106 <etsem > round <5439 cabiyb > about your altars <4196 mizbeach >.


 6 In all <3605 kol > your dwellingplaces <4186 mowshab > the cities <5892 <iyr > shall be laid waste <2717 charab >, and the high <1116 bamah > places shall be desolate <3456 yasham >; that your altars <4196 mizbeach > may be laid waste <2717 charab > and made desolate <0816 >asham >, and your idols <1544 gilluwl > may be broken <7665 shabar > and cease <7673 shabath >, and your images <2553 chamman > may be cut <1438 gada< > down <1438 gada< >, and your works <4639 ma<aseh > may be abolished <4229 machah >.


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


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


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


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


 11. Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Smite <5221 nakah > with thine hand <3709 kaph >, and stamp <7554 raqa< > with thy foot <7272 regel >, and say <0559 >amar >, Alas <0253 >ach > for all <3605 kol > the evil <7451 ra< > abominations <8441 tow<ebah > of the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >! for they shall fall <5307 naphal > by the sword <2719 chereb >, by the famine <7458 ra<ab >, and by the pestilence <1698 deber >.


 12 He that is far <7350 rachowq > off shall die <4191 muwth > of the pestilence <1698 deber >; and he that is near <7138 qarowb > shall fall <5307 naphal > by the sword <2719 chereb >; and he that remaineth <7604 sha>ar > and is besieged <5341 natsar > shall die <4191 muwth > by the famine <7458 ra<ab >: thus will I accomplish <3615 kalah > my fury <2534 chemah > upon them.


 13 Then shall ye know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, when their slain <2491 chalal > [men] shall be among <8432 tavek > their idols <1544 gilluwl > round <5439 cabiyb > about their altars <4196 mizbeach >, upon every <3605 kol > high <7311 ruwm > hill <1389 gib<ah >, in all <3605 kol > the tops <7218 ro>sh > of the mountains <2022 har >, and under <8478 tachath > every <3605 kol > green <7488 ra<anan > tree <6086 <ets >, and under <8478 tachath > every <3605 kol > thick <5687 <aboth > oak <0424 >elah >, the place <4725 maqowm > where they did offer <5414 nathan > sweet <5207 nichowach > savour <7381 reyach > to all <3605 kol > their idols <1544 gilluwl >.


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


Ezekiel 7


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


 2 Also, thou son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > unto the land <0127 >adamah > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >; An end <7093 qets >, the end <7093 qets > is come <0935 bow> > upon the four <0702 >arba< > corners <3671 kanaph > of the land <0776 >erets >.


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


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


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


 6 An end <7093 qets > is come <0935 bow> >, the end <7093 qets > is come <0935 bow> >: it watcheth <6974 quwts > for thee; behold <2009 hinneh >, it is come <0935 bow> >.


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


 8 Now <6258 <attah > will I shortly <7138 qarowb > pour <8210 shaphak > out my fury <2534 chemah > upon thee, and accomplish <3615 kalah > mine anger <0639 >aph > upon thee: and I will judge <8199 shaphat > thee according to thy ways <1870 derek >, and will recompense <5414 nathan > thee for all <3605 kol > thine abominations <8441 tow<ebah >.


 9 And mine eye <5869 <ayin > shall not spare <2347 chuwc >, neither <3808 lo> > will I have pity <2550 chamal >: I will recompense <5414 nathan > thee according to thy ways <1870 derek > and thine abominations <8441 tow<ebah > [that] are in the midst <8432 tavek > of thee; and ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > that smiteth <5221 nakah >.


 10 Behold <2009 hinneh > the day <3117 yowm >, behold <2009 hinneh >, it is come <0935 bow> >: the morning <6843 ts@phiyrah > is gone <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> >; the rod <4294 matteh > hath blossomed <6692 tsuwts >, pride <2087 zadown > hath budded <6524 parach >.


 11 Violence <2555 chamac > is risen <6965 quwm > up into a rod <4294 matteh > of wickedness <7562 resha< >: none <3808 lo> > of them [shall remain], nor <3808 lo> > of their multitude <1995 hamown >, nor <3808 lo> > of any <1991 hem > of theirs <1992 hem >: neither <3808 lo> > [shall there be] wailing <5089 noahh > for them.


 12 The time <6256 <eth > is come <0935 bow> >, the day <3117 yowm > draweth near <5060 naga< >: let not the buyer <7069 qanah > rejoice <8055 samach >, nor <0408 >al > the seller <4376 makar > mourn <56>: for wrath <2740 charown > [is] upon all <3605 kol > the multitude <1995 hamown > thereof.


 13 For the seller <4376 makar > shall not return <7725 shuwb > to that which is sold <4465 mimkar >, although they were yet <5750 <owd > alive <2416 chay >: for the vision <2377 chazown > [is] touching <0413 >el > the whole <3605 kol > multitude <1995 hamown > thereof, [which] shall not return <7725 shuwb >; neither <3808 lo> > shall any <0376 >iysh > strengthen <2388 chazaq > himself in the iniquity <5771 <avon > of his life <2416 chay >.


 14 They have blown <8628 taqa< > the trumpet <8628 taqa< >, even to make all <3605 kol > ready <3559 kuwn >; but none <0369 >ayin > goeth <1980 halak > to the battle <4421 milchamah >: for my wrath <2740 charown > [is] upon all <3605 kol > the multitude <1995 hamown > thereof.


 15 The sword <2719 chereb > [is] without <2351 chuwts >, and the pestilence <1698 deber > and the famine <7458 ra<ab > within <1004 bayith >: he that [is] in the field <7704 sadeh > shall die <4191 muwth > with the sword <2719 chereb >; and he that [is] in the city <5892 <iyr >, famine <7458 ra<ab > and pestilence <1698 deber > shall devour <0398 >akal > him.


 16. But they that escape <6403 palat > of them shall escape <6412 paliyt >, and shall be on <0413 >el > the mountains <2022 har > like doves <3123 yownah > of the valleys <1516 gay> >, all <3605 kol > of them mourning <1993 hamah >, every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > for his iniquity <5771 <avon >.


 17 All <3605 kol > hands <3027 yad > shall be feeble <7503 raphah >, and all <3605 kol > knees <1290 berek > shall be weak <3212 yalak > [as] water <4325 mayim >.


 18 They shall also gird <2296 chagar > [themselves] with sackcloth <8242 saq >, and horror <6427 pallatsuwth > shall cover <3680 kacah > them; and shame <0955 buwshah > [shall be] upon all <3605 kol > faces <6440 paniym >, and baldness <7144 qorchah > upon all <3605 kol > their heads <7218 ro>sh >.


 19 They shall cast <7993 shalak > their silver <3701 keceph > in the streets <2351 chuwts >, and their gold <2091 zahab > shall be removed <5079 niddah >: their silver <3701 keceph > and their gold <2091 zahab > shall not be able <3201 yakol > to deliver <5337 natsal > them in the day <3117 yowm > of the wrath <5678 <ebrah > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >: they shall not satisfy <7646 saba< > their souls <5315 nephesh >, neither <3808 lo> > fill <4390 male> > their bowels <4578 me<ah >: because <3588 kiy > it is the stumblingblock <4383 mikshowl > of their iniquity <5771 <avon >.


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


 21 And I will give <5414 nathan > it into the hands <3027 yad > of the strangers <2114 zuwr > for a prey <0957 baz >, and to the wicked <7563 rasha< > of the earth <0776 >erets > for a spoil <7998 shalal >; and they shall pollute <2490 chalal > it.


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


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


 24 Wherefore I will bring <0935 bow> > the worst <7451 ra< > of the heathen <1471 gowy >, and they shall possess <3423 yarash > their houses <1004 bayith >: I will also make the pomp <1347 ga>own > of the strong <5794 <az > to cease <7673 shabath >; and their holy <6942 qadash > places shall be defiled <2490 chalal >.


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


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


 27 The king <4428 melek > shall mourn <56>, and the prince <5387 nasiy> > shall be clothed <3847 labash > with desolation <8077 sh@mamah >, and the hands <3027 yad > of the people <5971 <am > of the land <0776 >erets > shall be troubled <0926 bahal >: I will do <6213 <asah > unto them after their way <1870 derek >, and according to their deserts <4941 mishpat > will I judge <8199 shaphat > them; and they shall know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.


Ezekiel 8


 1. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the sixth <8345 shishshiy > year <8141 shaneh >, in the sixth <8345 shishshiy > [month], in the fifth <2568 chamesh > [day] of the month <2320 chodesh >, [as] I sat <3427 yashab > in mine house <1004 bayith >, and the elders <2205 zaqen > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > sat <3427 yashab > before <6440 paniym > me, that the hand <3027 yad > of the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > fell <5307 naphal > there <8033 sham > upon me.


 2 Then I beheld <7200 ra>ah >, and lo <2009 hinneh > a likeness <1823 d@muwth > as the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of fire <0784 >esh >: from the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of his loins <4975 mothen > even downward <4295 mattah >, fire <0784 >esh >; and from his loins <4975 mothen > even upward <4605 ma<al >, as the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of brightness <2096 zohar >, as the colour <5869 <ayin > of amber <2830 chashmal >.


 3 And he put <7971 shalach > forth <7971 shalach > the form <8403 tabniyth > of an hand <3027 yad >, and took <3947 laqach > me by a lock <6734 tsiytsith > of mine head <7218 ro>sh >; and the spirit <7307 ruwach > lifted <5375 nasa> > me up between <0996 beyn > the earth <0776 >erets > and the heaven <8064 shamayim >, and brought <0935 bow> > me in the visions <4759 mar>ah > of God <0430 >elohiym > to Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >, to the door <6607 pethach > of the inner <6442 p@niymiy > gate <8179 sha<ar > that looketh <6437 panah > toward the north <6828 tsaphown >; where [was] the seat <4186 mowshab > of the image <5566 cemel > of jealousy <7069 qanah >, which provoketh to jealousy <7069 qanah >.


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


 5 Then said <0559 >amar > he unto me, Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, lift <5375 nasa> > up thine eyes <5869 <ayin > now <4994 na> > the way <1870 derek > toward the north <6828 tsaphown >. So I lifted <5375 nasa> > up mine eyes <5869 <ayin > the way <1870 derek > toward the north <6828 tsaphown >, and behold <2009 hinneh > northward <6828 tsaphown > at the gate <8179 sha<ar > of the altar <4196 mizbeach > this <2088 zeh > image <5566 cemel > of jealousy <7068 qin>ah > in the entry <0872 b@>ah >.


 6 He said <0559 >amar > furthermore unto me, Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, seest <7200 ra>ah > thou what <4100 mah > they do <6213 <asah >? [even] the great <1419 gadowl > abominations <8441 tow<ebah > that the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > committeth <6213 <asah > here <6311 poh >, that I should go <7368 rachaq > far <7368 rachaq > off from my sanctuary <4720 miqdash >? but turn <7725 shuwb > thee yet <5750 <owd > again <5750 <owd >, [and] thou shalt see <7200 ra>ah > greater <1419 gadowl > abominations <8441 tow<ebah >.


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


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


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


 10 So I went <0935 bow> > in and saw <7200 ra>ah >; and behold <2009 hinneh > every <3605 kol > form <8403 tabniyth > of creeping <7431 remes > things, and abominable <8263 sheqets > beasts <0929 b@hemah >, and all <3605 kol > the idols <1544 gilluwl > of the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, pourtrayed <2707 chaqah > upon the wall <7023 qiyr > round <5439 cabiyb > about.


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


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


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


 14 Then he brought <0935 bow> > me to the door <6607 pethach > of the gate <8179 sha<ar > of the LORD'S <3068 Y@hovah > house <1004 bayith > which <0834 >aher > [was] toward <5921 <al > the north <6828 tsaphown >; and, behold <2009 hinneh >, there <8033 sham > sat <3427 yashab > women <0802 >ishshah > weeping <1058 bakah > for Tammuz <8542 Tammuwz >.


 15 Then said <0559 >amar > he unto me, Hast thou seen <7200 ra>ah > [this], O son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >? turn <7725 shuwb > thee yet <5750 <owd > again <5750 <owd >, [and] thou shalt see <7200 ra>ah > greater <1419 gadowl > abominations <8441 tow<ebah > than these <0428 >el-leh >.


 16 And he brought <0935 bow> > me into <0413 >el > the inner <6442 p@niymiy > court <2691 chatser > of the LORD'S <3068 Y@hovah > house <1004 bayith >, and, behold <2009 hinneh >, at the door <6607 pethach > of the temple <1964 heykal > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, between <0996 beyn > the porch <0197 >uwlam > and the altar <4196 mizbeach >, [were] about five <2568 chamesh > and twenty <6242 <esriym > men <0376 >iysh >, with their backs <0268 >achowr > toward <0413 >el > the temple <1964 heykal > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, and their faces <6440 paniym > toward the east <6924 qedem >; and they worshipped <7812 shachah > the sun <8121 shemesh > toward the east <6924 qedem >.


 17 Then he said <0559 >amar > unto me, Hast thou seen <7200 ra>ah > [this], O son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >? Is it a light <7043 qalal > thing to the house <1004 bayith > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > that they commit <6213 <asah > the abominations <8441 tow<ebah > which <0834 >aher > they commit <6213 <asah > here <6311 poh >? for they have filled <4390 male> > the land <0776 >erets > with violence <2555 chamac >, and have returned <7725 shuwb > to provoke me to anger <3707 ka<ac >: and, lo <2009 hinneh >, they put <7971 shalach > the branch <2156 z@mowrah > to their nose <0639 >aph >.


 18 Therefore will I also <1571 gam > deal <6213 <asah > in fury <2534 chemah >: mine eye <5869 <ayin > shall not spare <2347 chuwc >, neither <3808 lo> > will I have pity <2550 chamal >: and though they cry <7121 qara> > in mine ears <0241 >ozen > with a loud <1419 gadowl > voice <6963 qowl >, [yet] will I not hear <8085 shama< > them.


Ezekiel 9


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


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


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


 4 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto him, Go <5674 <abar > through <5674 <abar > the midst <8432 tavek > of the city <5892 <iyr >, through the midst <8432 tavek > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >, and set <8427 tavah > a mark <8420 tav > upon the foreheads <4696 metsach > of the men <0582 >enowsh > that sigh <0584 >anach > and that cry <0602 >anaq > for all <3605 kol > the abominations <8441 tow<ebah > that be done <6213 <asah > in the midst <8432 tavek > thereof.


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


 6 Slay <2026 harag > utterly old <2205 zaqen > [and] young <0970 bachuwr >, both maids <1330 b@thuwlah >, and little <2945 taph > children <2945 taph >, and women <0802 >ishshah >: but come <5066 nagash > not near <5066 nagash > any <3605 kol > man <0376 >iysh > upon whom <0834 >aher > [is] the mark <8420 tav >; and begin <2490 chalal > at my sanctuary <4720 miqdash >. Then they began <2490 chalal > at the ancient <2204 zaqen > men <0582 >enowsh > which <0834 >aher > [were] before <6440 paniym > the house <1004 bayith >.


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


 8 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, while they were slaying <5221 nakah > them, and I was left <7604 sha>ar >, that I fell <5307 naphal > upon my face <6440 paniym >, and cried <2199 za<aq >, and said <0559 >amar >, Ah <0162 >ahahh > Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >! wilt thou destroy <7843 shachath > all <3605 kol > the residue <7611 sh@>eriyth > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > in thy pouring <8210 shaphak > out of thy fury <2534 chemah > upon Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >?


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


 10 And as for me also <1571 gam >, mine eye <5869 <ayin > shall not spare <2347 chuwc >, neither <3808 lo> > will I have pity <2550 chamal >, [but] I will recompense <5414 nathan > their way <1870 derek > upon their head <7218 ro>sh >.


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


Ezekiel 10


 1. Then I looked <7200 ra>ah >, and, behold <2009 hinneh >, in the firmament <7549 raqiya< > that was above <5921 <al > the head <7218 ro>sh > of the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > there appeared <7200 ra>ah > over <5921 <al > them as it were a sapphire <5601 cappiyr > stone <68>, as the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of the likeness <1823 d@muwth > of a throne <3678 kicce> >.


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


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


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


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


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


 7 And [one] cherub <3742 k@ruwb > stretched <7971 shalach > forth his hand <3027 yad > from between <0996 beyn > the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > unto the fire <0784 >esh > that [was] between <0996 beyn > the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb >, and took <5375 nasa> > [thereof], and put <5414 nathan > [it] into <0413 >el > the hands <2651 chophen > of [him that was] clothed <3847 labash > with linen <0906 bad >: who took <3947 laqach > [it], and went <3318 yatsa> > out.



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


 9 And when I looked <7200 ra>ah >, behold <2009 hinneh > the four <0702 >arba< > wheels <0212 >owphan > by the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb >, one <0259 >echad > wheel <0212 >owphan > by one <0259 >echad > cherub <3742 k@ruwb >, and another <0259 >echad > wheel <0212 >owphan > by another <0259 >echad > cherub <3742 k@ruwb >: and the appearance <4758 mar>eh > of the wheels <0212 >owphan > [was] as the colour <5869 <ayin > of a beryl <8658 tarshiysh > stone <68>.


 10 And [as for] their appearances <4758 mar>eh >, they four <0702 >arba< > had <1961 hayah > one <0259 >echad > likeness <1823 d@muwth >, as if <0834 >aher > a wheel <0212 >owphan > had been <1961 hayah > in the midst <8432 tavek > of a wheel <0212 >owphan >.


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


 19 And the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > lifted <5375 nasa> > up their wings <3671 kanaph >, and mounted <7426 ramam > up from the earth <0776 >erets > in my sight <5869 <ayin >: when they went <3318 yatsa> > out, the wheels <0212 >owphan > also [were] beside <5980 <ummah > them, and [every one] stood <5975 <amad > at the door <6607 pethach > of the east <6931 qadmowniy > gate <8179 sha<ar > of the LORD'S <3068 Y@hovah > house <1004 bayith >; and the glory <3519 kabowd > of the God <0430 >elohiym > of 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 > [was] the same <1992 hem > faces <6440 paniym > which <0834 >aher > I saw <7200 ra>ah > by the river <5104 nahar > of Chebar <3529 K@bar >, their appearances <4758 mar>eh > and themselves <6440 paniym >: they went <3212 yalak > every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > straight <5676 <eber > forward <6440 paniym >.


Ezekiel 11


 1. Moreover the spirit <7307 ruwach > lifted <5375 nasa> > me up, and brought <0935 bow> > me unto the east <6931 qadmowniy > gate <8179 sha<ar > of the LORD'S <3068 Y@hovah > house <1004 bayith >, which looketh <6437 panah > eastward <6921 qadiym >: and behold <2009 hinneh > at the door <6607 pethach > of the gate <8179 sha<ar > five <2568 chamesh > and twenty <6242 <esriym > men <0376 >iysh >; among <8432 tavek > whom I saw <7200 ra>ah > Jaazaniah <2970 Ya>azanyah > the son <1121 ben > of Azur <5809 <Azzuwr >, and Pelatiah <6410 P@latyah > the son <1121 ben > of Benaiah <1141 B@nayah >, princes <8269 sar > of the people <5971 <am >.


 2 Then said <0559 >amar > he unto me, Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, these <0428 >el-leh > [are] the men <0582 >enowsh > that devise <2803 chashab > mischief <0205 >aven >, and give wicked <7451 ra< > counsel <6098 <etsah > in this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr >:


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


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


 5 And the Spirit <7307 ruwach > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > fell <5307 naphal > upon me, and said <0559 >amar > unto me, Speak <0559 >amar >; Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >; Thus <3651 ken > have ye said <0559 >amar >, O house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >: for I know <3045 yada< > the things that come <4609 ma<alah > into your mind <7307 ruwach >, [every one of] them.


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


 15 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, thy brethren <0251 >ach >, [even] thy brethren <0251 >ach >, the men <0582 >enowsh > of thy kindred <1353 g@ullah >, and all <3605 kol > the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > wholly <3605 kol >, [are] they unto whom <0834 >aher > the inhabitants <3427 yashab > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > have said <0559 >amar >, Get you far <7368 rachaq > from the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >: unto us is this <1931 huw> > land <0776 >erets > given <5414 nathan > in possession <4181 mowrashah >.


 16 Therefore <3651 ken > say <0559 >amar >, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Although <3588 kiy > I have cast <7368 rachaq > them far <7368 rachaq > off among the heathen <1471 gowy >, and although <0272 >achuzzah > I have scattered <6327 puwts > them among the countries <0776 >erets >, yet will I be to them as a little <4592 m@<at > sanctuary <4720 miqdash > in the countries <0776 >erets > where they shall come <0935 bow> >.


 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 >, and assemble <0622 >acaph > you out of the countries <0776 >erets > where <0834 >aher > ye have been scattered <6327 puwts >, and I will give <5414 nathan > you the land <0127 >adamah > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >.


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


 19 And I will give <5414 nathan > them one <0259 >echad > heart <3820 leb >, and I will put <5414 nathan > a new <2319 chadash > spirit <7307 ruwach > within <7130 qereb > you; and I will take <5493 cuwr > the stony <68> heart <3820 leb > out of their flesh <1320 basar >, and will give <5414 nathan > them an heart <3820 leb > of flesh <1320 basar >:


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


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


 22. Then did the cherubims <3742 k@ruwb > lift <5375 nasa> > up their wings <3671 kanaph >, and the wheels <0212 >owphan > beside <5980 <ummah > them; and the glory <3519 kabowd > of the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > [was] over <5921 <al > them above <4605 ma<al >.


 23 And the glory <3519 kabowd > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > went <5927 <alah > up from the midst <8432 tavek > of the city <5892 <iyr >, and stood <5975 <amad > upon the mountain <2022 har > which <0834 >aher > [is] on the east <6924 qedem > side <6954 Q@helathah > of the city <5892 <iyr >.


 24 Afterwards the spirit <7307 ruwach > took <5375 nasa> > me up, and brought <0935 bow> > me in a vision <4758 mar>eh > by the Spirit <7307 ruwach > of God <0430 >elohiym > into Chaldea <3778 Kasdiy >, to them of the captivity <1473 gowlah >. So the vision <4758 mar>eh > that I had seen <7200 ra>ah > went <5927 <alah > up from me.


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


Ezekiel 12


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


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


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


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



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


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


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


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


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


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


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


 12 And the prince <5387 nasiy> > that [is] among <8432 tavek > them shall bear <5375 nasa> > upon [his] shoulder <3802 katheph > in the twilight <5939 <alatah >, and shall go <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> >: they shall dig <2864 chathar > through the wall <7023 qiyr > to carry <3318 yatsa> > out thereby: he shall cover <3680 kacah > his face <6440 paniym >, that he see <7200 ra>ah > not the ground <0776 >erets > with [his] eyes <5869 <ayin >.


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


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


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


 16 But I will leave <3498 yathar > a few <4557 micpar > men <0582 >enowsh > of them from the sword <2719 chereb >, from the famine <7458 ra<ab >, and from the pestilence <1698 deber >; that they may declare <5608 caphar > all <3605 kol > their abominations <8441 tow<ebah > among the heathen <1471 gowy > whither they come <0935 bow> >; and they shall know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.


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


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


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


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


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


 22 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, what <4100 mah > [is] that proverb <4912 mashal > [that] ye have in the land <0127 >adamah > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, saying <0559 >amar >, The days <3117 yowm > are prolonged <0748 >arak >, and every <3605 kol > vision <2377 chazown > faileth <6>?


 23 Tell <0559 >amar > them therefore <3651 ken >, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; I will make this <2088 zeh > proverb <4912 mashal > to cease <7673 shabath >, and they shall no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > use <4912 mashal > it as a proverb <4911 mashal > in Israel <3478 Yisra>el >; but say <1696 dabar > unto them, The days <3117 yowm > are at <7196 qishshur > hand <7126 qarab >, and the effect <1697 dabar > of every <3605 kol > vision <2377 chazown >.


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


 25 For I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >: I will speak <1696 dabar >, and the word <1697 dabar > that I shall speak <1696 dabar > shall come <6213 <asah > to pass <6213 <asah >; it shall be no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > prolonged <4900 mashak >: for in your days <3117 yowm >, O rebellious <4805 m@riy > house <1004 bayith >, will I say <1696 dabar > the word <1697 dabar >, and will perform <6213 <asah > it, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.


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


 27 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, behold <2009 hinneh >, [they of] the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > say <0559 >amar >, The vision <2377 chazown > that he seeth <2372 chazah > [is] for many <7227 rab > days <3117 yowm > [to come], and he prophesieth <5012 naba> > of the times <6256 <eth > [that are] far <7350 rachowq > off.


 28 Therefore <3651 ken > say <0559 >amar > unto them, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; There shall none <3808 lo> > of my words <1697 dabar > be prolonged <4900 mashak > any <3605 kol > more <5750 <owd >, but the word <1697 dabar > which <0834 >aher > I have spoken <1696 dabar > shall be done <6213 <asah >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.


Ezekiel 13


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


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


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


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


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


 6 They have seen <2372 chazah > vanity <7723 shav> > and lying <3577 kazab > divination <7081 qecem >, saying <0559 >amar >, The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > saith <5002 n@>um >: and the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath not sent <7971 shalach > them: and they have made [others] to hope <3176 yachal > that they would confirm <6965 quwm > the word <1697 dabar >.


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


 8 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Because <3282 ya<an > ye have spoken <1696 dabar > vanity <7723 shav> >, and seen <2372 chazah > lies <3576 kazab >, therefore <3651 ken >, behold <2005 hen >, I [am] against <0413 >el > you, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.


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


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


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


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


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


 14 So will I break <2040 harac > down <2040 harac > the wall <7023 qiyr > that ye have daubed <2902 tuwach > with untempered <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 tuwach > it with untempered <8602 taphel > [morter], and will say <0559 >amar > unto you, The wall <7023 qiyr > [is] no <0369 >ayin > [more], neither <0369 >ayin > they that daubed <2902 tuwach > it;


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


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


 18 And say <0559 >amar >, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Woe <1945 howy > to the [women] that sew <8609 taphar > pillows <3704 keceth > to all <3605 kol > armholes, and make <6213 <asah > kerchiefs <4556 micpachath > upon the head <7218 ro>sh > of every <3605 kol > stature <6967 qowmah > to hunt <6679 tsuwd > souls <5315 nephesh >! Will ye hunt <6679 tsuwd > the souls <5315 nephesh > of my people <5971 <am >, and will ye save <2421 chayah > the souls <5315 nephesh > alive <2421 chayah > [that come] unto you?


 19 And will ye pollute <2490 chalal > me among <0413 >el > my people <5971 <am > for handfuls <8168 sho<al > of barley <8184 s@<orah > and for pieces <6595 path > of bread <3899 lechem >, to slay <4191 muwth > the souls <5315 nephesh > that should not die <4191 muwth >, and to save <2421 chayah > the souls <5315 nephesh > alive <2421 chayah > that should not live <2421 chayah >, by your lying <3576 kazab > to my people <5971 <am > that hear <8085 shama< > [your] lies <3576 kazab >?


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


 21 Your kerchiefs <4556 micpachath > also will I tear <7167 qara< >, and deliver <5337 natsal > my people <5971 <am > out of your hand <3027 yad >, and they shall be no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > in your hand <3027 yad > to be hunted <4686 matsuwd >; and ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.


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

Ezekiel 14


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


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


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


 4 Therefore <3651 ken > speak <1696 dabar > unto them, and say <0559 >amar > unto them, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Every man <0376 >iysh > of the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > that setteth <5927 <alah > up his idols <1544 gilluwl > in his heart <3820 leb >, and putteth <7760 suwm > the stumblingblock <4383 mikshowl > of his iniquity <5771 <avon > before <5227 nokach > his face <6440 paniym >, and cometh <0935 bow> > to the prophet <5030 nabiy> >; I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > will answer <6030 <anah > him that cometh <0935 bow> > according to the multitude <7230 rob > of his idols <1544 gilluwl >;


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


 6 Therefore <3651 ken > say <0559 >amar > unto the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Repent <7725 shuwb >, and turn <7725 shuwb > [yourselves] from your idols <1544 gilluwl >; and turn <7725 shuwb > away your faces <6440 paniym > from all <3605 kol > your abominations <8441 tow<ebah >.


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


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


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


 10 And they shall bear <5375 nasa> > the punishment <5771 <avon > of their iniquity <5771 <avon >: the punishment <5771 <avon > of the prophet <5030 nabiy> > shall be even as the punishment <5771 <avon > of him that seeketh <1875 darash > [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 ta<ah > from me, neither <3808 lo> > be polluted <2930 tame> > any <3605 kol > more <5750 <owd > with all <3605 kol > their transgressions <6588 pesha< >; but that they may be my people <5971 <am >, and I may be their God <0430 >elohiym >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.


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


 13 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, when <3588 kiy > the land <0776 >erets > sinneth <2398 chata> > against me by trespassing <4603 ma<al > grievously <4604 ma<al >, then will I stretch <5186 natah > out mine hand <3027 yad > upon it, and will break <7665 shabar > the staff <4294 matteh > of the bread <3899 lechem > thereof, and will send <7971 shalach > famine <7458 ra<ab > upon it, and will cut <3772 karath > off man <0120 >adam > and beast <0929 b@hemah > from it:


 14 Though these <0428 >el-leh > three <7969 shalowsh > men <0582 >enowsh >, Noah <5146 Noach >, Daniel <1840 Daniye>l >, and Job <0347 >Iyowb >, were in it, they should deliver <5337 natsal > [but] their own souls <5315 nephesh > by their righteousness <6666 ts@daqah >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.


 15 If <3863 luw> > I cause noisome <7451 ra< > beasts <2416 chay > to pass <5674 <abar > through the land <0776 >erets >, and they spoil <7921 shakol > it, so that it be desolate <8077 sh@mamah >, that no <1097 b@liy > man may pass <5674 <abar > through because <6440 paniym > of the beasts <2416 chay >:



 16 [Though] these <0428 >el-leh > three <7969 shalowsh > men <0582 >enowsh > [were] in it, [as] I live <2416 chay >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >, they shall deliver <5337 natsal > neither <0518 >im > sons <1121 ben > nor <0508 >Elpa<al > daughters <1121 ben >; they only <0905 bad > shall be delivered <5337 natsal >, but the land <0776 >erets > shall be desolate <8077 sh@mamah >.


 17 Or <0176 >ow > [if] I bring <0935 bow> > a sword <2719 chereb > upon that land <0776 >erets >, and say <0559 >amar >, Sword <2719 chereb >, go <5674 <abar > through the land <0776 >erets >; so that I cut <3772 karath > off man <0120 >adam > and beast <0929 b@hemah > from it:


 18 Though these <0428 >el-leh > three <7969 shalowsh > men <0582 >enowsh > [were] in it, [as] I live <2416 chay >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >, they shall deliver <5337 natsal > neither <3808 lo> > sons <1121 ben > nor daughters <1121 ben >, but they only <0905 bad > shall be delivered <5337 natsal > themselves.


 19 Or <0176 >ow > [if] I send <7971 shalach > a pestilence <1698 deber > into <0413 >el > that land <0776 >erets >, and pour <8210 shaphak > out my fury <2534 chemah > upon it in blood <1818 dam >, to cut <3772 karath > off from it man <0120 >adam > and beast <0929 b@hemah >:


 20 Though Noah <5146 Noach >, Daniel <1840 Daniye>l >, and Job <0347 >Iyowb >, [were] in it, [as] I live <2416 chay >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >, they shall deliver <5337 natsal > neither <0518 >im > son <1121 ben > nor <0518 >im > daughter <1323 bath >; they shall [but] deliver <5337 natsal > their own souls <5315 nephesh > by their righteousness <6666 ts@daqah >.


 21 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; How <0637 >aph > much <0637 >aph > more <5750 <owd > when <3588 kiy > I send <7971 shalach > my four <0702 >arba< > sore <7451 ra< > judgments <8201 shephet > upon Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >, the sword <2719 chereb >, and the famine <7458 ra<ab >, and the noisome <7451 ra< > beast <2416 chay >, and the pestilence <1698 deber >, to cut <3772 karath > off from it man <0120 >adam > and beast <0929 b@hemah >?


 22 Yet, behold <2009 hinneh >, therein shall be left <3498 yathar > a remnant <6413 p@leytah > that shall be brought <3318 yatsa> > forth <4163 mowtsa>ah >, [both] sons <1121 ben > and daughters <1121 ben >: behold <2009 hinneh >, they shall come <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > unto you, and ye shall see <7200 ra>ah > their way <1870 derek > and their doings <5949 <aliylah >: and ye shall be comforted <5162 nacham > concerning <5921 <al > the evil <7451 ra< > that I have brought <0935 bow> > upon Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >, [even] concerning <0854 >eth > all <3605 kol > that I have brought <0935 bow> > upon it.


 23 And they shall comfort <5162 nacham > you, when ye see <7200 ra>ah > their ways <1870 derek > and their doings <5949 <aliylah >: and ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I have not done <6213 <asah > without <2600 chinnam > cause <2600 chinnam > all <3605 kol > that I have done <6213 <asah > in it, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.


Ezekiel 15


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


 2 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, What <4100 mah > is the vine <1612 gephen > tree <6086 <ets > more than any tree <6086 <ets >, [or than] a branch <2156 z@mowrah > which <0834 >aher > is among the trees <6086 <ets > of the forest <3293 ya<ar >?


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


 4 Behold <2009 hinneh >, it is cast <5414 nathan > into the fire <0784 >esh > for fuel <0402 >oklah >; the fire <0784 >esh > devoureth <0398 >akal > both <8147 sh@nayim > the ends <7098 qatsah > of it, and the midst <8432 tavek > of it is burned <2787 charar >. Is it meet <6743 tsalach > for [any] work <4399 m@la>kah >?


 5 Behold <2009 hinneh >, when it was whole <8549 tamiym >, it was meet <6213 <asah > for no <3808 lo> > work <4399 m@la>kah >: how <0637 >aph > much <7227 rab > less shall it be meet <6213 <asah > yet for [any] work <4399 m@la>kah >, when <3588 kiy > the fire <0784 >esh > hath devoured <0398 >akal > it, and it is burned <2787 charar >?


 6 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; As the vine <1612 gephen > tree <6086 <ets > among the trees <6086 <ets > of the forest <3293 ya<ar >, which <0834 >aher > I have given <5414 nathan > to the fire <0784 >esh > for fuel <0402 >oklah >, so <3651 ken > will I give <5414 nathan > the inhabitants <3427 yashab > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >.


 7 And I will set <5414 nathan > my face <6440 paniym > against them; they shall go <3318 yatsa> > out from [one] fire <0784 >esh >, and [another] fire <0784 >esh > shall devour <0398 >akal > them; and ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, when I set <7760 suwm > my face <6440 paniym > against them.


 8 And I will make <5414 nathan > the land <0776 >erets > desolate <8077 sh@mamah >, because <3282 ya<an > they have committed <4600 ma<ak > a trespass <4604 ma<al >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.


Ezekiel 16


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


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


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


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


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


 6. And when I passed <5674 <abar > by thee, and saw <7200 ra>ah > thee polluted <0947 buwc > in thine own blood <1818 dam >, I said <0559 >amar > unto thee [when thou wast] in thy blood <1818 dam >, Live <2421 chayah >; yea, I said <0559 >amar > unto thee [when thou wast] in thy blood <1818 dam >, Live <2421 chayah >.


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



 8 Now when I passed <5674 <abar > by thee, and looked <7200 ra>ah > upon thee, behold <2009 hinneh >, thy time <6256 <eth > [was] the time <6256 <eth > of love <1730 dowd >; and I spread <6566 paras > my skirt <3671 kanaph > over <5921 <al > thee, and covered <3680 kacah > thy nakedness <6172 <ervah >: yea, I sware <7650 shaba< > unto thee, and entered <0935 bow> > into a covenant <1285 b@riyth > with thee, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >, and thou becamest <1961 hayah > mine.


 9 Then washed <7364 rachats > I thee with water <4325 mayim >; yea, I throughly washed <7857 shataph > away thy blood <1818 dam > from thee, and I anointed <5480 cuwk > thee with oil <8081 shemen >.


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


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


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


 13 Thus wast thou decked <5710 <adah > with gold <2091 zahab > 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 >, and oil <8081 shemen >: and thou wast exceeding <3966 m@<od > beautiful <3303 yapheh >, and thou didst prosper <6743 tsalach > into a kingdom <4410 m@luwkah >.


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


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


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


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


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


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


 20 Moreover thou hast taken <3947 laqach > thy sons <1121 ben > and thy daughters <1121 ben >, whom <0834 >aher > thou hast borne <3205 yalad > unto me, and these hast thou sacrificed <2076 zabach > unto them to be devoured <0398 >akal >. [Is this] of thy whoredoms <8457 taznuwth > a small <4592 m@<at > matter,


 21 That thou hast slain <7819 shachat > my children <1121 ben >, and delivered <5414 nathan > them to cause them to pass <5674 <abar > through [the fire] for them?


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


 30 How <4100 mah > weak <0535 >amal > is thine heart <3826 libbah >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >, seeing thou doest <6213 <asah > all <3605 kol > these <0428 >el-leh > [things], the work <4639 ma<aseh > of an imperious <7986 shalleteth > whorish <2181 zanah > woman <0802 >ishshah >;


 31 In that thou buildest <1129 banah > thine eminent <1354 gab > place in the head <7218 ro>sh > of every <3605 kol > way <1870 derek >, and makest <6213 <asah > thine high <7413 ramah > place in every <3605 kol > street <7339 r@chob >; and hast not been <1961 hayah > as an harlot <2181 zanah >, in that thou scornest <7046 qalac > hire <0868 >ethnan >;


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


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


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


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


 36 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Because <3282 ya<an > thy filthiness <5178 n@chosheth > was poured <8210 shaphak > out, and thy nakedness <6172 <ervah > discovered <1540 galah > through thy whoredoms <8457 taznuwth > with thy lovers <0157 >ahab >, and with all <3605 kol > the idols <1544 gilluwl > of thy abominations <8441 tow<ebah >, and by the blood <1818 dam > of thy children <1121 ben >, which <0834 >aher > thou didst give <5414 nathan > unto them;


 37 Behold <2005 hen >, therefore <3651 ken > I will gather <6908 qabats > all <3605 kol > thy lovers <0157 >ahab >, with whom <0834 >aher > thou hast taken pleasure <6148 <arab >, and all <3605 kol > [them] that thou hast loved <0157 >ahab >, with all <3605 kol > [them] that thou hast hated <8130 sane> >; I will even gather <6908 qabats > them round <5439 cabiyb > about against <5921 <al > thee, and will discover <1540 galah > thy nakedness <6172 <ervah > unto them, that they may see <7200 ra>ah > all <3605 kol > thy nakedness <6172 <ervah >.


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


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


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


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


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


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


 44. Behold <2009 hinneh >, every <3605 kol > one that useth proverbs <4911 mashal > shall use <4911 mashal > [this] proverb <4911 mashal > against <5921 <al > thee, saying <0559 >amar >, As [is] the mother <0517 >em >, [so is] her daughter <1323 bath >.


 45 Thou [art] thy mother's <0517 >em > daughter <1323 bath >, that lotheth <1602 ga<al > her husband <0376 >iysh > and her children <1121 ben >; and thou [art] the sister <0269 >achowth > of thy sisters <0269 >achowth >, which <0834 >aher > lothed <1602 ga<al > their husbands <0582 >enowsh > and their children <1121 ben >: your mother <0517 >em > [was] an Hittite <2850 Chittiy >, and your father <1> an Amorite <0567 >Emoriy >.


 46 And thine elder <1419 gadowl > sister <0269 >achowth > [is] Samaria <8111 Shom@rown >, she and her daughters <1121 ben > that dwell <3427 yashab > at <5921 <al > thy left <8040 s@mo>wl > hand <8040 s@mo>wl >: and thy younger <6996 qatan > sister <0269 >achowth >, that dwelleth <3427 yashab > at thy right <3225 yamiyn > hand <3225 yamiyn >, [is] Sodom <5467 C@dom > and her daughters <1121 ben >.


 47 Yet hast thou not walked <1980 halak > after their ways <1870 derek >, nor done <6213 <asah > after their abominations <8441 tow<ebah >: but, as [if that were] a very <6985 qat > little <4592 m@<at > [thing], thou wast corrupted <7843 shachath > more than they in all <3605 kol > thy ways <1870 derek >.


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


 49 Behold <2009 hinneh >, this <2088 zeh > was the iniquity <5771 <avon > of thy sister <0269 >achowth > Sodom <5467 C@dom >, pride <1347 ga>own >, fulness <7653 sib<ah > of bread <3899 lechem >, and abundance <7962 shalvah > of idleness <8252 shaqat > was in her and in her daughters <1121 ben >, neither <3808 lo> > did she strengthen <2388 chazaq > the hand <3027 yad > of the poor <6041 <aniy > and needy <34>.


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


 51 Neither <3808 lo> > hath Samaria <8111 Shom@rown > committed <2398 chata> > half <2677 chetsiy > of thy sins <2403 chatta>ah >; but thou hast multiplied <7235 rabah > thine abominations <8441 tow<ebah > more than they, and hast justified <6663 tsadaq > thy sisters <0269 >achowth > in all <3605 kol > thine abominations <8441 tow<ebah > which <0834 >aher > thou hast done <6213 <asah >.


 52 Thou also <1571 gam >, which <0834 >aher > hast judged <6419 palal > thy sisters <0269 >achowth >, bear <5375 nasa> > thine own shame <3639 k@limmah > for thy sins <2403 chatta>ah > that thou hast committed <8581 ta<ab > more abominable <8581 ta<ab > than they: they are more righteous <6663 tsadaq > than thou: yea <1571 gam >, be thou confounded <0954 buwsh > also <1571 gam >, and bear <5375 nasa> > thy shame <3639 k@limmah >, in that thou hast justified <6663 tsadaq > thy sisters <0269 >achowth >.


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


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


 55 When thy sisters <0269 >achowth >, Sodom <5467 C@dom > and her daughters <1121 ben >, shall return <7725 shuwb > to their former <6927 qadmah > estate, and Samaria <8111 Shom@rown > and her daughters <1121 ben > shall return <7725 shuwb > to their former <6927 qadmah > estate <3653 ken >, then thou and thy daughters <1121 ben > shall return <7725 shuwb > to your former <6927 qadmah > estate.


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


 57 Before <2962 terem > thy wickedness <7451 ra< > was discovered <1540 galah >, as at the time <6256 <eth > of [thy] reproach <2781 cherpah > of the daughters <1121 ben > of Syria <0758 >Aram >, and all <3605 kol > [that are] round <5439 cabiyb > about her, the daughters <1121 ben > of the Philistines <6430 P@lishtiy >, which despise <7590 sha>t > thee round <5439 cabiyb > about.


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



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


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


 61 Then thou shalt remember <2142 zakar > thy ways <1870 derek >, and be ashamed <3637 kalam >, when thou shalt receive <3947 laqach > thy sisters <0269 >achowth >, thine elder <1419 gadowl > and thy younger <6996 qatan >: and I will give <5414 nathan > them unto thee for daughters <1121 ben >, but not by thy covenant <1285 b@riyth >.


 62 And I will establish <6965 quwm > my covenant <1285 b@riyth > with thee; and thou shalt know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >:


 63 That thou mayest remember <2142 zakar >, and be confounded <0954 buwsh >, and never <3808 lo> > open <6610 pithchown > thy mouth <6310 peh > any more <5750 <owd > because <6440 paniym > of thy shame <3639 k@limmah >, when I am pacified <3722 kaphar > toward thee for all <3605 kol > that thou hast done <6213 <asah >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.


Ezekiel 17


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


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


 3 And say <0559 >amar >, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; A great <1419 gadowl > eagle <5404 nesher > with great <1419 gadowl > wings <3671 kanaph >, longwinged, full <4392 male> > of feathers <5133 nowtsah >, which <0834 >aher > had divers <7553 riqmah > colours <7553 riqmah >, came <0935 bow> > unto Lebanon <3844 L@banown >, and took <3947 laqach > the highest <6788 tsammereth > branch <6788 tsammereth > of the cedar <0730 >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 bow> > it into a land <0776 >erets > of traffick <3667 K@na<an >; he set <7760 suwm > it in a city <5892 <iyr > of merchants <7402 rakal >.


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


 6 And it grew <6779 tsamach >, and became <1961 hayah > a spreading <5627 carah > vine <1612 gephen > of low <8217 shaphal > stature <6967 qowmah >, whose branches <1808 daliyah > turned <6437 panah > toward <0413 >el > him, and the roots <8328 sheresh > thereof were under <8478 tachath > him: so it became <1961 hayah > a vine <1612 gephen >, and brought <5375 nasa> > forth <6213 <asah > branches <0905 bad >, and shot <7971 shalach > forth sprigs <6288 p@>orah >.


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


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


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


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


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


 12 Say <0559 >amar > now <4994 na> > to the rebellious <4805 m@riy > house <1004 bayith >, Know <3045 yada< > ye not what <4100 mah > these <0428 >el-leh > [things mean]? tell <0559 >amar > [them], Behold <2009 hinneh >, the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > is come <0935 bow> > to Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >, and hath taken <3947 laqach > the king <4428 melek > thereof, and the princes <8269 sar > thereof, and led <0935 bow> > them with him to Babylon <0894 Babel >;


 13 And hath taken <3947 laqach > of the king's <4410 m@luwkah > seed <2233 zera< >, and made <3772 karath > a covenant <1285 b@riyth > with him, and hath taken <0935 bow> > an oath <0423 >alah > of him: he hath also taken <3947 laqach > the mighty <0352 >ayil > of the land <0776 >erets >:


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


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


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


 17 Neither <3808 lo> > shall Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > with [his] mighty <1419 gadowl > army <2428 chayil > and great <7227 rab > company <6951 qahal > make <6213 <asah > for him in the war <4421 milchamah >, by casting <8210 shaphak > up mounts <5550 col@lah >, and building <1129 banah > forts <1785 dayeq >, to cut <3772 karath > off many <7227 rab > persons <5315 nephesh >:


 18 Seeing he despised <0959 bazah > the oath <0423 >alah > by breaking <6565 parar > the covenant <1285 b@riyth >, when, lo <2009 hinneh >, he had given <5414 nathan > his hand <3027 yad >, and hath done <6213 <asah > all <3605 kol > these <0428 >el-leh > [things], he shall not escape <4422 malat >.


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


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


 21 And all <3605 kol > his fugitives <4015 mibrach > with all <3605 kol > his bands <0102 >aggaph > shall fall <5307 naphal > by the sword <2719 chereb >, and they that remain <7604 sha>ar > shall be scattered <6566 paras > toward all <3605 kol > winds <7307 ruwach >: and ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have spoken <1696 dabar > [it].


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


 23 In the mountain <2022 har > of the height <4791 marowm > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > will I plant <8362 shathal > it: and it shall bring <5375 nasa> > forth <5375 nasa> > boughs <6057 <anaph >, and bear <6213 <asah > fruit <6529 p@riy >, and be a goodly <0117 >addiyr > cedar <0730 >erez >: and under <8478 tachath > it shall dwell <7931 shakan > all <3605 kol > fowl <6833 tsippowr > of every <3605 kol > wing <3671 kanaph >; in the shadow <6738 tsel > of the branches <1808 daliyah > thereof shall they dwell <7931 shakan >.


 24 And all <3605 kol > the trees <6086 <ets > of the field <7704 sadeh > shall know <3045 yada< > that I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have brought <8213 shaphel > down <8213 shaphel > the high <1364 gaboahh > tree <6086 <ets >, have exalted <1361 gabahh > the low <8217 shaphal > tree <6086 <ets >, have dried <3001 yabesh > up the green <3892 lach > tree <6086 <ets >, and have made the dry <3002 yabesh > tree <6086 <ets > to flourish <6524 parach >: I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have spoken <1696 dabar > and have done <6213 <asah > [it].


Ezekiel 18


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


 2 What <4100 mah > mean ye, that ye use <4911 mashal > this <2088 zeh > proverb <4911 mashal > concerning <5921 <al > the land <0127 >adamah > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, saying <0559 >amar >, The fathers <1> have eaten <0398 >akal > sour <1155 bocer > grapes <1154 becer >, and the children's <1121 ben > teeth <8127 shen > are set on edge <6949 qahah >?


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


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


 5 But if <3588 kiy > a man <0376 >iysh > be just <6662 tsaddiyq >, and do <6213 <asah > that which is lawful <4941 mishpat > and right <6666 ts@daqah >,


 6 [And] hath not eaten <0398 >akal > upon the mountains <2022 har >, neither <3808 lo> > hath lifted <5375 nasa> > up his eyes <5869 <ayin > to the idols <1544 gilluwl > of the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, neither <3808 lo> > hath defiled <2930 tame> > his neighbour's <7453 rea< > wife <0802 >ishshah >, neither <3808 lo> > hath come <7126 qarab > near <7126 qarab > to a menstruous <5079 niddah > woman <0802 >ishshah >,


 7 And hath not oppressed <3238 yanah > any <0376 >iysh >, [but] hath restored <7725 shuwb > to the debtor <2326 chowb > his pledge <2258 chabol >, hath spoiled <1497 gazal > none <3808 lo> > by violence <1500 g@zelah >, hath given <5414 nathan > his bread <3899 lechem > to the hungry <7456 ra<eb >, and hath covered <3680 kacah > the naked <5903 <eyrom > with a garment <0899 beged >;


 8 He [that] hath not given <5414 nathan > forth upon usury <5392 neshek >, neither <3808 lo> > hath taken <3947 laqach > any increase <8635 tarbuwth >, [that] hath withdrawn <7725 shuwb > his hand <3027 yad > from iniquity <5766 <evel >, hath executed <6213 <asah > true <0571 >emeth > judgment <4941 mishpat > between <0996 beyn > man <0376 >iysh > and man <0376 >iysh >,


 9 Hath walked <1980 halak > in my statutes <2708 chuqqah >, and hath kept <8104 shamar > my judgments <4941 mishpat >, to deal <6213 <asah > truly <0571 >emeth >; he [is] just <6662 tsaddiyq >, he shall surely live <2421 chayah >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.


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


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


 12 Hath oppressed <3238 yanah > the poor <6041 <aniy > and needy <34>, hath spoiled <1497 gazal > by violence <1500 g@zelah >, hath not restored <7725 shuwb > the pledge <2258 chabol >, and hath lifted <5375 nasa> > up his eyes <5869 <ayin > to the idols <1544 gilluwl >, hath committed <6213 <asah > abomination <8441 tow<ebah >,


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


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


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


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



 17 [That] hath taken <7725 shuwb > off his hand <3027 yad > from the poor <6041 <aniy >, [that] hath not received <3947 laqach > usury <5392 neshek > nor increase <8635 tarbuwth >, hath executed <6213 <asah > my judgments <4941 mishpat >, hath walked <1980 halak > in my statutes <2708 chuqqah >; he shall not die <4191 muwth > for the iniquity <5771 <avon > of his father <1>, he shall surely live <2421 chayah >.


 18 [As for] his father <1>, because <3588 kiy > he cruelly <6233 <osheq > oppressed <6231 <ashaq >, spoiled <1497 gazal > his brother <0251 >ach > by violence <1499 gezel >, and did <6213 <asah > [that] which <0834 >aher > [is] not good <2896 towb > among <8432 tavek > his people <5971 <am >, lo <2009 hinneh >, even he shall die <4191 muwth > in his iniquity <5771 <avon >.


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


 20 The soul <5315 nephesh > that sinneth <2398 chata> >, it shall die <4191 muwth >. The son <1121 ben > shall not bear <5375 nasa> > the iniquity <5771 <avon > of the father <1>, neither <3808 lo> > shall the father <1> bear <5375 nasa> > the iniquity <5771 <avon > of the son <1121 ben >: the righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > of the righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > shall be upon him, and the wickedness <7564 rish<ah > of the wicked <7563 rasha< > shall be upon him.


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


 29 Yet saith <0559 >amar > the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, The way <1870 derek > of the Lord <0136 >Adonay > is not equal <8505 takan >. O house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, are not my ways <1870 derek > equal <8505 takan >? are not your ways <1870 derek > unequal?


 30. Therefore <3651 ken > I will judge <8199 shaphat > you, O house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > according to his ways <1870 derek >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >. Repent <7725 shuwb >, and turn <7725 shuwb > [yourselves] from all <3605 kol > your transgressions <6588 pesha< >; so iniquity <5771 <avon > shall not be your ruin <4383 mikshowl >.


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


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


Ezekiel 19


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


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



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


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


 5 Now when she saw <7200 ra>ah > that she had waited <3176 yachal >, [and] her hope <8615 tiqvah > was lost <6>, then she took <3947 laqach > another <0259 >echad > of her whelps <1482 guwr >, [and] made <7760 suwm > him a young <3715 k@phiyr > lion <3715 k@phiyr >.


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


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


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


 9 And they put <5414 nathan > him in ward <5474 cuwgar > in chains <2397 chach >, and brought <0935 bow> > him to the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel >: they brought <0935 bow> > him into holds <4686 matsuwd >, that his voice <6963 qowl > should no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > be heard <8085 shama< > upon the mountains <2022 har > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >.


 10. Thy mother <0517 >em > [is] like a vine <1612 gephen > in thy blood <1818 dam >, planted <8362 shathal > by the waters <4325 mayim >: she was fruitful <6509 parah > and full of branches <6058 <aneph > by reason of many <7227 rab > waters <4325 mayim >.


 11 And she had <1961 hayah > strong <5797 <oz > rods <4294 matteh > for the sceptres <7626 shebet > of them that bare <4910 mashal > rule <4910 mashal >, and her stature <6967 qowmah > was exalted <1361 gabahh > among <0996 beyn > the thick <5688 <aboth > branches <5688 <aboth >, and she appeared <7200 ra>ah > in her height <1363 gobahh > with the multitude <7230 rob > of her branches <1808 daliyah >.


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


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


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


Ezekiel 20


 1. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the seventh <7637 sh@biy<iy > year <8141 shaneh >, in the fifth <2549 chamiyshiy > [month], the tenth <6218 <asowr > [day] of the month <2320 chodesh >, [that] certain <0582 >enowsh > of the elders <2205 zaqen > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > came <0935 bow> > to enquire <1875 darash > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, and sat <3427 yashab > before <6440 paniym > me.


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


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


 5. And say <0559 >amar > unto them, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; In the day <3117 yowm > when I chose <0977 bachar > Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, and lifted <5375 nasa> > up mine hand <3027 yad > unto the seed <2233 zera< > of the house <1004 bayith > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, and made myself known <3045 yada< > unto them in the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, when I lifted <5375 nasa> > up mine hand <3027 yad > unto them, saying <0559 >amar >, I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > your God <0430 >elohiym >;


 6 In the day <3117 yowm > [that] I lifted <5375 nasa> > up mine hand <3027 yad > unto them, to bring <3318 yatsa> > them forth <3318 yatsa> > of the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > into <0413 >el > a land <0776 >erets > that I had espied <8446 tuwr > for them, flowing <2100 zuwb > with milk <2461 chalab > and honey <1706 d@bash >, which <1958 hiy > [is] the glory <6643 ts@biy > of all <3605 kol > lands <0776 >erets >:


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


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


 9 But I wrought <6213 <asah > for my name's <8034 shem > sake <4616 ma<an >, that it should not be polluted <2490 chalal > before <5869 <ayin > the heathen <1471 gowy >, among <8432 tavek > whom <0834 >aher > they [were], in whose <0853 >eth > sight <5869 <ayin > I made myself known <3045 yada< > unto them, in bringing <3318 yatsa> > them forth <3318 yatsa> > out of the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >.


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


 11 And I gave <5414 nathan > them my statutes <2708 chuqqah >, and shewed <3045 yada< > them my judgments <4941 mishpat >, which <0834 >aher > [if] a man <0120 >adam > do <6213 <asah >, he shall even live <2425 chayay > in them.


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


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


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


 15 Yet also <1571 gam > I lifted <5375 nasa> > up my hand <3027 yad > unto them in the wilderness <4057 midbar >, that I would not bring <0935 bow> > them into <0413 >el > the land <0776 >erets > which <0834 >aher > I had given <5414 nathan > [them], 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 > them;


 20 And hallow <6942 qadash > my sabbaths <7676 shabbath >; and they shall be a sign <0226 >owth > between <0996 beyn > me and you, that ye may know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > your God <0430 >elohiym >.


 21 Notwithstanding the children <1121 ben > rebelled <4784 marah > against me: they walked <1980 halak > not in my statutes <2708 chuqqah >, neither <3808 lo> > kept <8104 shamar > my judgments <4941 mishpat > to do <6213 <asah > them, which <0834 >aher > [if] a man <0120 >adam > do <6213 <asah >, he shall even live <2425 chayay > in them; they polluted <2490 chalal > my sabbaths <7676 shabbath >: then I said <0559 >amar >, I would pour <8210 shaphak > out my fury <2534 chemah > upon them, to accomplish <3615 kalah > my anger <0639 >aph > against them in the wilderness <4057 midbar >.


 22 Nevertheless I withdrew <7725 shuwb > mine hand <3027 yad >, and wrought <6213 <asah > for my name's <8034 shem > sake <4616 ma<an >, that it should not be polluted <2490 chalal > in the sight <5869 <ayin > of the heathen <1471 gowy >, in whose <0834 >aher > sight <5869 <ayin > I brought <3318 yatsa> > them forth <3318 yatsa> >.


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


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


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


 26 And I polluted <2930 tame> > them in their own gifts <4979 mattanah >, in that they caused to pass <5674 <abar > through [the fire] all <3605 kol > that openeth <6363 peter > the womb <7356 racham >, that I might make them desolate <8074 shamem >, to the end <4616 ma<an > that they might know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.


 27. Therefore <3651 ken >, son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, speak <1696 dabar > unto the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, and say <0559 >amar > unto them, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Yet <5750 <owd > in this <2063 zo>th > your fathers <1> have blasphemed <1442 gadaph > me, in that they have committed <4600 ma<ak > a trespass <4604 ma<al > against me.


 28 [For] when I had brought <0935 bow> > them into <0413 >el > the land <0776 >erets >, [for] the which <0834 >aher > I lifted <5375 nasa> > up mine hand <3027 yad > to give <5414 nathan > it to them, then they saw <7200 ra>ah > every <3605 kol > high <7311 ruwm > hill <1389 gib<ah >, and all <3605 kol > the thick <5687 <aboth > trees <6086 <ets >, and they offered <2076 zabach > there <8033 sham > their sacrifices <2077 zebach >, and there <8033 sham > they presented <5414 nathan > the provocation <3708 ka<ac > of their offering <7133 qorban >: there <8033 sham > also they made <7760 suwm > their sweet <5207 nichowach > savour <7381 reyach >, and poured <5258 nacak > out there <8033 sham > their drink <5262 necek > offerings.


 29 Then I said <0559 >amar > unto them, What <4100 mah > [is] the high <1116 bamah > place whereunto ye go <0935 bow> >? And the name <8034 shem > thereof is called <7121 qara> > Bamah <1117 Bamah > unto this <2088 zeh > day <3117 yowm >.


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


 31 For when ye offer <5375 nasa> > your gifts <4979 mattanah >, when ye make your sons <1121 ben > to pass <5674 <abar > through the fire <0784 >esh >, ye pollute <2930 tame> > yourselves with all <3605 kol > your idols <1544 gilluwl >, even unto this day <3117 yowm >: and shall I be enquired <1875 darash > of by you, O house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >? [As] I live <2416 chay >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >, I will not be enquired of by you.


 32 And that which cometh <5927 <alah > into <5921 <al > your mind <7307 ruwach > shall not be at all, that ye say <0559 >amar >, We will be as the heathen <1471 gowy >, as the families <4940 mishpachah > of the countries <0776 >erets >, to serve <8334 sharath > wood <6086 <ets > and stone <68>.


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


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


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


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


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


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


 39 As for you, O house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Go <3212 yalak > ye, serve <5647 <abad > ye every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > his idols <1544 gilluwl >, and hereafter <0310 >achar > [also], if <0518 >im > ye will not hearken <8085 shama< > unto me: but pollute <2490 chalal > ye my holy <6944 qodesh > name <8034 shem > no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > with your gifts <4979 mattanah >, and with your idols <1544 gilluwl >.


 40 For in mine holy <6944 qodesh > mountain <2022 har >, in the mountain <2022 har > of the height <4791 marowm > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >, there <8033 sham > shall all <3605 kol > the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, all <3605 kol > of them in the land <0776 >erets >, serve <5647 <abad > me: there <8033 sham > will I accept <7521 ratsah > them, and there <8033 sham > will I require <1875 darash > your offerings <8641 t@ruwmah >, and the firstfruits <7225 re>shiyth > of your oblations <4864 mas>eth >, with all <3605 kol > your holy things.


 41 I will accept <7521 ratsah > you with your sweet <5207 nichowach > savour <7381 reyach >, when I bring <3318 yatsa> > you out from the people <5971 <am >, and gather <6908 qabats > you out of the countries <0776 >erets > wherein ye have been scattered <6327 puwts >; and I will be sanctified <6942 qadash > in you before <5869 <ayin > the heathen <1471 gowy >.


 42 And ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, when I shall bring <0935 bow> > you into <0413 >el > the land <0127 >adamah > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, into <0413 >el > the country <0776 >erets > [for] the which <0834 >aher > I lifted <5375 nasa> > up mine hand <3027 yad > to give <5414 nathan > it to your fathers <1>.


 43 And there <8033 sham > shall ye remember <2142 zakar > your ways <1870 derek >, and all <3605 kol > your doings <5949 <aliylah >, wherein <0834 >aher > ye have been defiled <2930 tame> >; and ye shall lothe <6962 quwt > yourselves in your own sight <6440 paniym > for all <3605 kol > your evils <7451 ra< > that ye have committed <6213 <asah >.


 44 And ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, when <3588 kiy > I have wrought <6213 <asah > with you for my name's <8034 shem > sake <4616 ma<an >, not according to your wicked <7451 ra< > ways <1870 derek >, nor according to your corrupt <7843 shachath > doings <5949 <aliylah >, O ye house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.


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


 46 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, set <7760 suwm > thy face <6440 paniym > toward <1870 derek > the south <8486 teyman >, and drop <5197 nataph > [thy word] toward <0413 >el > the south <1864 darowm >, and prophesy <5012 naba> > against <0413 >el > the forest <3293 ya<ar > of the south <5045 negeb > field <7704 sadeh >;


 47 And say <0559 >amar > to the forest <3293 ya<ar > of the south <5045 negeb >, Hear <8085 shama< > the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >; Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Behold <2005 hen >, I will kindle <3341 yatsath > a fire <0784 >esh > in thee, and it shall devour <0398 >akal > every <3605 kol > green <3892 lach > tree <6086 <ets > in thee, and every <3605 kol > dry <3002 yabesh > tree <6086 <ets >: the flaming <3852 lehabah > flame <7957 shalhebeth > shall not be quenched <3518 kabah >, and all <3605 kol > faces <6440 paniym > from the south <5045 negeb > to the north <6828 tsaphown > shall be burned <6866 tsarab > therein.


 48 And all <3605 kol > flesh <1320 basar > shall see <7200 ra>ah > that I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have kindled <1197 ba<ar > it: it shall not be quenched <3518 kabah >.


 49 Then said <0559 >amar > I, Ah <0162 >ahahh > Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >! they say <0559 >amar > of me, Doth he not speak <4911 mashal > parables <4912 mashal >?


Ezekiel 21


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


 2 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, set <7760 suwm > thy face <6440 paniym > toward <0413 >el > Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >, and drop <5197 nataph > [thy word] toward <0413 >el > the holy <4720 miqdash > places, and prophesy <5012 naba> > against <0413 >el > the land <0127 >adamah > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >,


 3 And say <0559 >amar > to the land <0127 >adamah > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >; Behold <2005 hen >, I [am] against <0413 >el > thee, and will draw <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > my sword <2719 chereb > out of his sheath <8593 ta<ar >, and will cut <3772 karath > off from thee the righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > and the wicked <7563 rasha< >.


 4 Seeing <3282 ya<an > then that I will cut <3772 karath > off from thee the righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > and the wicked <7563 rasha< >, therefore shall my sword <2719 chereb > go <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > out of his sheath <8593 ta<ar > against <0413 >el > all <3605 kol > flesh <1320 basar > from the south <5045 negeb > to the north <6828 tsaphown >:


 5 That all <3605 kol > flesh <1320 basar > may know <3045 yada< > that I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have drawn <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > my sword <2719 chereb > out of his sheath <8593 ta<ar >: it shall not return <7725 shuwb > any more <5750 <owd >.


 6 Sigh <0584 >anach > therefore, thou son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, with the breaking <7670 shibrown > of [thy] loins <4975 mothen >; and with bitterness <4814 m@riyruwth > sigh <0584 >anach > before their eyes <5869 <ayin >.


 7 And it shall be, when <3588 kiy > they say <0559 >amar > unto thee, Wherefore sighest <0584 >anach > thou? that thou shalt answer <0559 >amar >, For the tidings <8052 sh@muw<ah >; because <3588 kiy > it cometh <0935 bow> >: and every <3605 kol > heart <3820 leb > shall melt <4549 macac >, and all <3605 kol > hands <3027 yad > shall be feeble <7503 raphah >, and every <3605 kol > spirit <7307 ruwach > shall faint <3543 kahah >, and all <3605 kol > knees <1290 berek > shall be weak <3212 yalak > [as] water <4325 mayim >: behold <2009 hinneh >, it cometh <0935 bow> >, and shall be brought <1961 hayah > to pass, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.


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


 9 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, prophesy <5012 naba> >, and say <0559 >amar >, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >; Say <0559 >amar >, A sword <2719 chereb >, a sword <2719 chereb > is sharpened <2300 chadad >, and also <1571 gam > furbished <4803 marat >:


 10 It is sharpened <2300 chadad > to make a sore slaughter <2873 tabach >; it is furbished <4803 marat > that it may glitter <1300 baraq >: should we then <0176 >ow > make mirth <7797 suws >? it contemneth <3988 ma>ac > the rod <7626 shebet > of my son <1121 ben >, [as] every <3605 kol > tree <6086 <ets >.


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


 12 Cry <2199 za<aq > and howl <3213 yalal >, son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >: for it shall be upon my people <5971 <am >, it [shall be] upon all <3605 kol > the princes <5387 nasiy> > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >: terrors <4048 magar > by reason <0413 >el > of the sword <2719 chereb > shall be upon my people <5971 <am >: smite <5606 caphaq > therefore upon [thy] thigh <3409 yarek >.


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


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


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


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


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


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


 19 Also, thou son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, appoint <7760 suwm > thee two <8147 sh@nayim > ways <1870 derek >, that the sword <2719 chereb > of the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > may come <0935 bow> >: both twain <8147 sh@nayim > shall come <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > out of one <0259 >echad > land <0776 >erets >: and choose <1254 bara> > thou a place <3027 yad >, choose <1254 bara> > [it] at the head <7218 ro>sh > of the way <1870 derek > to the city <5892 <iyr >.


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


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


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


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


 24 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Because <3282 ya<an > ye have made your iniquity <5771 <avon > to be remembered <2142 zakar >, in that your transgressions <6588 pesha< > are discovered <1540 galah >, so that in all <3605 kol > your doings <5949 <aliylah > your sins <2403 chatta>ah > do appear <7200 ra>ah >; because <3282 ya<an >, [I say], that ye are come to remembrance <2142 zakar >, ye shall be taken <8610 taphas > with the hand <3079 Y@howyaqiym >.


 25 And thou, profane <2491 chalal > wicked <7563 rasha< > prince <5387 nasiy> > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, whose <0834 >aher > day <3117 yowm > is come <0935 bow> >, when <6256 <eth > iniquity <5771 <avon > [shall have] an end <7093 qets >,


 26 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Remove <5493 cuwr > the diadem <4701 mitsnepheth >, and take <7311 ruwm > off the crown <5850 <atarah >: this <2063 zo>th > [shall] not [be] the same <2063 zo>th >: exalt <1361 gabahh > [him that is] low <8217 shaphal >, and abase <8213 shaphel > [him that is] high <1364 gaboahh >.


 27 I will overturn <5754 <avvah >, overturn <5754 <avvah >, overturn <5754 <avvah >, it: and it shall be no <3808 lo> > [more], until <5704 <ad > he come <0935 bow> > whose <0834 >aher > right <4941 mishpat > it is; and I will give <5414 nathan > it [him].


 28. And thou, son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, prophesy <5012 naba> > and say <0559 >amar >, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > concerning <0413 >el > the Ammonites <5984 <Ammowniy >, and concerning <0413 >el > their reproach <2781 cherpah >; even say <0559 >amar > thou, The sword <2719 chereb >, the sword <2719 chereb > [is] drawn <6605 pathach >: for the slaughter <2875 Tebach > [it is] furbished <4803 marat >, to consume <0398 >akal > because <4616 ma<an > of the glittering <1300 baraq >:


 29 Whiles they see <2372 chazah > vanity <7723 shav> > unto thee, whiles they divine <7080 qacam > a lie <3576 kazab > unto thee, to bring <5414 nathan > thee upon the necks <6677 tsavva>r > of [them that are] slain <2491 chalal >, of the wicked <7563 rasha< >, whose <0834 >aher > day <3117 yowm > is come <0935 bow> >, when <6256 <eth > their iniquity <5771 <avon > [shall have] an end <7093 qets >.


 30 Shall I cause [it] to return <7725 shuwb > into his sheath <8593 ta<ar >? I will judge <8199 shaphat > thee in the place <4725 maqowm > where <0834 >aher > thou wast created <1254 bara> >, in the land <0776 >erets > of thy nativity <4351 m@kuwrah >.


 31 And I will pour <8210 shaphak > out mine indignation <2195 za<am > upon thee, I will blow <6315 puwach > against <5921 <al > thee in the fire <0784 >esh > of my wrath <5678 <ebrah >, and deliver <5414 nathan > thee into the hand <3027 yad > of brutish <1197 ba<ar > men <0582 >enowsh >, [and] skilful <2796 charash > to destroy <4889 mashchiyth >.


 32 Thou shalt be for fuel <0402 >oklah > to the fire <0784 >esh >; thy blood <1818 dam > shall be in the midst <8432 tavek > of the land <0776 >erets >; thou shalt be no <3808 lo> > [more] remembered <2142 zakar >: for I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have spoken <1696 dabar > [it].


Ezekiel 22


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


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


 3 Then say <0559 >amar > thou, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >, The city <5892 <iyr > sheddeth <8210 shaphak > blood <1818 dam > in the midst <8432 tavek > of it, that her time <6256 <eth > may come <0935 bow> >, and maketh <6213 <asah > idols <1544 gilluwl > against <5921 <al > herself to defile <2930 tame> > herself.


 4 Thou art become <0816 >asham > guilty <0816 >asham > in thy blood <1818 dam > that thou hast shed <8210 shaphak >; and hast defiled <2930 tame> > thyself in thine idols <1544 gilluwl > which <0834 >aher > thou hast made <6213 <asah >; and thou hast caused thy days <3117 yowm > to draw near <7126 qarab >, and art come <0935 bow> > [even] unto thy years <8141 shaneh >: therefore <3651 ken > have I made <5414 nathan > thee a reproach <2781 cherpah > unto the heathen <1471 gowy >, and a mocking <7048 qallacah > to all <3605 kol > countries <0776 >erets >.


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


 6 Behold <2009 hinneh >, the princes <5387 nasiy> > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > were in thee to their power <2220 z@rowa< > to shed <8210 shaphak > blood <1818 dam >.


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


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


 9 In thee are men <0582 >enowsh > that carry <7400 rakiyl > tales <7400 rakiyl > to shed <8210 shaphak > blood <1818 dam >: and in thee they eat <0398 >akal > upon the mountains <2022 har >: in the midst <8432 tavek > of thee they commit <6213 <asah > lewdness <2154 zimmah >.


 10 In thee have they discovered <1540 galah > their fathers <1>' nakedness <6172 <ervah >: in thee have they humbled <6031 <anah > her that was set <5079 niddah > apart <5079 niddah > for pollution <2931 tame> >.


 11 And one hath committed <6213 <asah > abomination <8441 tow<ebah > with his neighbour's <7453 rea< > wife <0802 >ishshah >; and another <0376 >iysh > hath lewdly <2154 zimmah > defiled <2930 tame> > his daughter <3618 kallah > in law <3618 kallah >; and another <0376 >iysh > in thee hath humbled <6031 <anah > his sister <0269 >achowth >, his father's <1> daughter <1323 bath >.



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


 13 Behold <2009 hinneh >, therefore I have smitten <5221 nakah > mine hand <3079 Y@howyaqiym > at <0413 >el > thy dishonest <1215 betsa< > gain <1214 batsa< > which <0834 >aher > thou hast made <6213 <asah >, and at <5921 <al > thy blood <1818 dam > which <0834 >aher > hath been <1961 hayah > in the midst <8432 tavek > of thee.


 14 Can thine heart <3820 leb > endure <5975 <amad >, or can thine hands <3027 yad > be strong <2388 chazaq >, in the days <3117 yowm > that I shall deal <6213 <asah > with thee? I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have spoken <1696 dabar > [it], and will do <6213 <asah > [it].


 15 And I will scatter <6327 puwts > thee among the heathen <1471 gowy >, and disperse <2219 zarah > thee in the countries <0776 >erets >, and will consume <8552 tamam > thy filthiness <2932 tum>ah > out of thee.


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


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


 18 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > is to me become <1961 hayah > dross <5509 ciyg >: all <3605 kol > they [are] brass <5178 n@chosheth >, and tin <0913 b@diyl >, and iron <1270 barzel >, and lead <5777 <owphereth >, in the midst <8432 tavek > of the furnace <3564 kuwr >; they are [even] the dross <5509 ciyg > of silver <3701 keceph >.


 19 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Because <3282 ya<an > ye are all <3605 kol > become <1961 hayah > dross <5509 ciyg >, behold <2005 hen >, therefore <3651 ken > I will gather <6908 qabats > you into <0413 >el > the midst <8432 tavek > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >.


 20 [As] they gather <6910 q@butsah > silver <3701 keceph >, and brass <5178 n@chosheth >, and iron <1270 barzel >, and lead <5777 <owphereth >, and tin <0913 b@diyl >, into <0413 >el > the midst <8432 tavek > of the furnace <3564 kuwr >, to blow <5301 naphach > the fire <0784 >esh > upon it, to melt <5413 nathak > [it]; so <3651 ken > will I gather <6908 qabats > [you] in mine anger <0639 >aph > and in my fury <2534 chemah >, and I will leave <3241 Yaniym > [you there], and melt <5413 nathak > you.


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


 22 As silver <3701 keceph > is melted <2046 hittuwk > in the midst <8432 tavek > of the furnace <3564 kuwr >, so <3651 ken > shall ye be melted <5413 nathak > in the midst <8432 tavek > thereof; and ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have poured <8210 shaphak > out my fury <2534 chemah > upon you.


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


 24 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, say <0559 >amar > unto her, Thou [art] the land <0776 >erets > that is not cleansed <2891 taher >, nor <3808 lo> > rained <1656 goshem > upon in the day <3117 yowm > of indignation <2195 za<am >.


 25 [There is] a conspiracy <7195 qesher > of her prophets <5030 nabiy> > in the midst <8432 tavek > thereof, like a roaring <7580 sha>ag > lion <0738 >ariy > ravening <2963 taraph > the prey <2964 tereph >; they have devoured <0398 >akal > souls <5315 nephesh >; they have taken <3947 laqach > the treasure <2633 chocen > and precious <3366 y@qar > things; they have made her many <7235 rabah > widows <0490 >almanah > in the midst <8432 tavek > thereof.


 26 Her priests <3548 kohen > have violated <2554 chamac > my law <8451 towrah >, and have profaned <2490 chalal > mine holy <6944 qodesh > things: they have put no <3808 lo> > difference between <0996 beyn > the holy <6944 qodesh > and profane <2455 chol >, neither <3808 lo> > have they shewed <3045 yada< > [difference] between <0996 beyn > the unclean <2931 tame> > and the clean <2889 tahowr >, and have hid <5956 <alam > their eyes <5869 <ayin > from my sabbaths <7676 shabbath >, and I am profaned <2490 chalal > among <8432 tavek > them.


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


 28 And her prophets <5030 nabiy> > have daubed <2902 tuwach > them with untempered <8602 taphel > [morter], seeing vanity <7723 shav> >, and divining <7080 qacam > lies <3576 kazab > unto them, saying <0559 >amar >, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >, when the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath not spoken <1696 dabar >.


 29 The people <5971 <am > of the land <0776 >erets > have used oppression <6233 <osheq >, and exercised robbery <1498 gazel >, and have vexed <3238 yanah > the poor <6041 <aniy > and needy <34>: yea, they have oppressed <6231 <ashaq > the stranger <1616 ger > wrongfully.


 30 And I sought <1245 baqash > for a man <0376 >iysh > among them, that should make <1443 gadar > up the hedge <1447 gader >, and stand <5975 <amad > in the gap <6556 perets > before <6440 paniym > me for the land <0776 >erets >, that I should not destroy <7843 shachath > it: but I found <4672 matsa> > none <3808 lo> >.


 31 Therefore have I poured <8210 shaphak > out mine indignation <2195 za<am > upon them; I have consumed <3615 kalah > them with the fire <0784 >esh > of my wrath <5678 <ebrah >: their own way <1870 derek > have I recompensed <5414 nathan > upon their heads <7218 ro>sh >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.

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


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


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



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


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


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


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



 10 These <1992 hem > discovered <1540 galah > her nakedness <6172 <ervah >: they took <3947 laqach > her sons <1121 ben > and her daughters <1121 ben >, and slew her with the sword <2719 chereb >: and she became <1961 hayah > famous <8034 shem > among women <0802 >ishshah >; for they had executed <6213 <asah > judgment <8196 sh@phowt > upon her.


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


 12 She doted <5689 <agab > upon the Assyrians <0804 >Ashshuwr > [her] neighbours <7138 qarowb >, captains <6346 pechah > and rulers <5461 cagan > clothed <3847 labash > most gorgeously <4358 miklowl >, horsemen <6571 parash > riding <7392 rakab > upon horses <5483 cuwc >, all <3605 kol > of them desirable <2531 chemed > young <0970 bachuwr > men.


 13 Then I saw <7200 ra>ah > that she was defiled <2930 tame> >, [that] they [took] both <8147 sh@nayim > one <0259 >echad > way <1870 derek >,


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


 23 The Babylonians, and all <3605 kol > the Chaldeans <3779 Kasday >, Pekod <6489 P@qowd >, and Shoa <7772 Showa< >, and Koa <6970 Qowa< >, [and] all <3605 kol > the Assyrians <0804 >Ashshuwr > with them: all <3605 kol > of them desirable <2531 chemed > young <0970 bachuwr > men, captains <6346 pechah > and rulers <5461 cagan >, great <7991 shaliysh > lords <7991 shaliysh > and renowned <7121 qara> >, all <3605 kol > of them riding <7392 rakab > upon horses <5483 cuwc >.


 24 And they shall come <0935 bow> > against <5921 <al > thee with chariots <2021 hotsen >, wagons <7393 rekeb >, and wheels <1534 galgal >, and with an assembly <6951 qahal > of people <5971 <am >, [which] shall set <7760 suwm > against <5921 <al > thee buckler <6793 tsinnah > and shield <4043 magen > and helmet <6959 qowba< > round <5439 cabiyb > about: and I will set <5414 nathan > judgment <4941 mishpat > before <6440 paniym > them, and they shall judge <8199 shaphat > thee according to their judgments <4941 mishpat >.


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


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


 27 Thus will I make thy lewdness <2154 zimmah > to cease <7673 shabath > from thee, and thy whoredom <2184 z@nuwth > [brought] from the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >: so that thou shalt not lift <5375 nasa> > up thine eyes <5869 <ayin > unto them, nor <3808 lo> > remember <2142 zakar > Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > any more <5750 <owd >.


 28 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Behold <2005 hen >, I will deliver <5414 nathan > thee into the hand <3027 yad > [of them] whom <0834 >aher > thou hatest <8130 sane> >, into the hand <3027 yad > [of them] from whom <0834 >aher > thy mind <5315 nephesh > is alienated <5361 naqa< >:


 29 And they shall deal <6213 <asah > with thee hatefully <8135 sin>ah >, and shall take <3947 laqach > away all <3605 kol > thy labour <3018 y@giya< >, and shall leave <5800 <azab > thee naked <5903 <eyrom > and bare <6181 <eryah >: and the nakedness <6172 <ervah > of thy whoredoms <2183 zanuwn > shall be discovered <1540 galah >, both thy lewdness <2154 zimmah > and thy whoredoms <8457 taznuwth >.


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


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


 32 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Thou shalt drink <8354 shathah > of thy sister's <0269 >achowth > cup <3563 kowc > deep <6013 <amoq > and large <7342 rachab >: thou shalt be laughed <6712 ts@choq > to scorn and had in derision <3932 la<ag >; it containeth <3557 kuwl > much <4767 mirbah >.


 33 Thou shalt be filled <4390 male> > with drunkenness <7943 shikkarown > and sorrow <3015 yagown >, with the cup <3563 kowc > of astonishment <8047 shammah > and desolation <8077 sh@mamah >, with the cup <3563 kowc > of thy sister <0269 >achowth > 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 >? yea, declare <5046 nagad > unto them their abominations <8441 tow<ebah >;


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


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


Ezekiel 24


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


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


 3 And utter <4911 mashal > a parable <4912 mashal > unto the rebellious <4805 m@riy > house <1004 bayith >, and say <0559 >amar > unto them, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Set <8239 shaphath > on a pot <5518 ciyr >, set <8239 shaphath > [it] on, and also <1571 gam > pour <3332 yatsaq > water <4325 mayim > into it:


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


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


 6 Wherefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Woe <0188 >owy > to the bloody <1818 dam > city <5892 <iyr >, to the pot <5518 ciyr > whose <0834 >aher > scum <2457 chel>ah > [is] therein, and whose scum <2457 chel>ah > is not gone <3318 yatsa> > out of it! bring <3318 yatsa> > it out piece <5409 nethach > by piece <5409 nethach >; let no <3808 lo> > lot <1486 gowral > fall <5307 naphal > upon it.


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


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


 9 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Woe <0188 >owy > to the bloody <1818 dam > city <5892 <iyr >! I will even make the pile <4071 m@duwrah > for fire great <1431 gadal >.


 10 Heap <7235 rabah > on wood <6086 <ets >, kindle <1814 dalaq > the fire <0784 >esh >, consume <8552 tamam > the flesh <1320 basar >, and spice <7543 raqach > it well, and let the bones <6106 <etsem > be burned <2787 charar >.



 11 Then set <5975 <amad > it empty <7385 riyq > upon the coals <1513 gechel > thereof, that the brass <5178 n@chosheth > of it may be hot <3179 yacham >, and may burn <2787 charar >, and [that] the filthiness <2932 tum>ah > of it may be molten <5413 nathak > in it, [that] the scum <2457 chel>ah > of it may be consumed <8552 tamam >.


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


 13 In thy filthiness <2932 tum>ah > [is] lewdness <2154 zimmah >: because <3282 ya<an > I have purged <2891 taher > thee, and thou wast not purged <2891 taher >, thou shalt not be purged <2891 taher > from thy filthiness <2932 tum>ah > any more <5750 <owd >, till <5704 <ad > I have caused my fury <2534 chemah > to rest <5117 nuwach > upon thee.


 14 I the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > have spoken <1696 dabar > [it]: it shall come <0835 >esher > to pass, and I will do <6213 <asah > [it]; I will not go <6544 para< > back <6544 para< >, neither <3808 lo> > will I spare <2347 chuwc >, neither <3808 lo> > will I repent <5162 nacham >; according to thy ways <1870 derek >, and according to thy doings <5949 <aliylah >, shall they judge <8199 shaphat > thee, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.


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


 16 Son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam >, behold <2005 hen >, I take <3947 laqach > away from thee the desire <4261 machmad > of thine eyes <5869 <ayin > with a stroke <4046 maggephah >: yet neither <3808 lo> > shalt thou mourn <5594 caphad > nor <3808 lo> > weep <1058 bakah >, neither <3808 lo> > shall thy tears <1832 dim<ah > run <0935 bow> > down.


 17 Forbear <1826 damam > to cry <0602 >anaq >, make <6213 <asah > no <3808 lo> > mourning <60> for the dead <4191 muwth >, bind <2280 chabash > the tire <6287 p@>er > of thine head upon thee, and put <7760 suwm > on thy shoes <5275 na<al > upon thy feet <7272 regel >, and cover <5844 <atah > not [thy] lips <8222 sapham >, and eat <0398 >akal > not the bread <3899 lechem > of men <0582 >enowsh >.


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


 19 And the people <5971 <am > said <0559 >amar > unto me, Wilt thou not tell <5046 nagad > us what <4100 mah > these <0428 >el-leh > [things are] to us, that thou doest <6213 <asah > [so]?


 20 Then I answered <0559 >amar > them, The word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came <1961 hayah > unto me, saying <0559 >amar >,


 21 Speak <0559 >amar > unto the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Behold <2005 hen >, I will profane <2490 chalal > my sanctuary <4720 miqdash >, the excellency <1347 ga>own > of your strength <5797 <oz >, the desire <4261 machmad > of your eyes <5869 <ayin >, and that which your soul <5315 nephesh > pitieth <4263 machmal >; and your sons <1121 ben > and your daughters <1121 ben > whom <0834 >aher > ye have left <5800 <azab > shall fall <5307 naphal > by the sword <2719 chereb >.


 22 And ye shall do <6213 <asah > as I have done <6213 <asah >: ye shall not cover <5844 <atah > [your] lips <8222 sapham >, nor <3808 lo> > eat <0398 >akal > the bread <3899 lechem > of men <0582 >enowsh >.


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


 24 Thus Ezekiel <3168 Y@chezqe>l > is unto you a sign <4159 mowpheth >: according to all <3605 kol > that he hath done <6213 <asah > shall ye do <6213 <asah >: and when this cometh <0935 bow> >, ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.


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


 26 [That] he that escapeth <6412 paliyt > in that day <3117 yowm > shall come <0835 >esher > unto thee, to cause [thee] to hear <2045 hashma<uwth > [it] with [thine] ears <0241 >ozen >?


 27 In that day <3117 yowm > shall thy mouth <6310 peh > be opened <6605 pathach > to him which is escaped <6412 paliyt >, and thou shalt speak <1696 dabar >, and be no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > dumb <0481 >alam >: and thou shalt be a sign <4159 mowpheth > unto them; and they shall know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.


Ezekiel 25


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


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


 3 And say <0559 >amar > unto the Ammonites <5984 <Ammowniy >, Hear <8085 shama< > the word <1697 dabar > of the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Because <3282 ya<an > thou saidst <0559 >amar >, Aha <0253 >ach >, against <0413 >el > my sanctuary <4720 miqdash >, when <3588 kiy > it was profaned <2490 chalal >; and against <0413 >el > the land <0127 >adamah > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, when <3588 kiy > it was desolate <8074 shamem >; and against <0413 >el > the house <1004 bayith > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >, when <3588 kiy > they went into captivity <1473 gowlah >;


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


 5 And I will make <5414 nathan > Rabbah <7237 Rabbah > a stable <5116 naveh > for camels <1581 gamal >, and the Ammonites <5984 <Ammowniy > a couchingplace <4769 marbets > for flocks <6629 tso>n >: and ye shall know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.


 6 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Because <3282 ya<an > thou hast clapped <4222 macha> > [thine] hands <3027 yad >, and stamped <7554 raqa< > with the feet <7272 regel >, and rejoiced <8055 samach > in heart <5315 nephesh > with all <3605 kol > thy despite <7589 sh@>at > against <0413 >el > the land <0127 >adamah > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >;


 7 Behold <2005 hen >, therefore <3651 ken > I will stretch <5186 natah > out mine hand <3027 yad > upon thee, and will deliver <5414 nathan > thee for a spoil <0957 baz > to the heathen <1471 gowy >; and I will cut <3772 karath > thee off from the people <5971 <am >, and I will cause thee to perish <6> out of the countries <0776 >erets >: I will destroy <8045 shamad > thee; and thou shalt know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.


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


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


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


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


 12 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Because <3282 ya<an > that Edom <0123 >Edom > hath dealt <6213 <asah > against the house <1004 bayith > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > by taking vengeance <5359 naqam >, and hath greatly offended <0816 >asham >, and revenged <5358 naqam > himself upon them;


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


 14 And I will lay <5414 nathan > my vengeance <5360 n@qamah > upon Edom <0123 >Edom > by the hand <3027 yad > of my people <5971 <am > Israel <3478 Yisra>el >: and they shall do <6213 <asah > in Edom <0123 >Edom > according to mine anger <0639 >aph > and according to my fury <2534 chemah >; and they shall know <3045 yada< > my vengeance <5360 n@qamah >, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >.


 15 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Because <3282 ya<an > the Philistines <6430 P@lishtiy > have dealt <6213 <asah > by revenge <5360 n@qamah >, and have taken vengeance <5359 naqam > with a despiteful <7589 sh@>at > heart <5315 nephesh >, to destroy <4889 mashchiyth > [it] for the old <5769 <owlam > hatred <0342 >eybah >;


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


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


Ezekiel 26


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


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


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


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


 5 It shall be [a place for] the spreading <4894 mishtowach > of nets <2764 cherem > in the midst <8432 tavek > of the sea <3220 yam >: for I have spoken <1696 dabar > [it], saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >: and it shall become <1961 hayah > a spoil <0957 baz > to the nations <1471 gowy >.


 6 And her daughters <1121 ben > which <0834 >aher > [are] in the field <7704 sadeh > shall be slain <2026 harag > by the sword <2719 chereb >; and they shall know <3045 yada< > that I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.


 7 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; Behold <2005 hen >, I will bring <0935 bow> > upon Tyrus <6865 Tsor > Nebuchadrezzar <5019 N@buwkadne>tstsar > king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel >, a king <4428 melek > of kings <4428 melek >, from the north <6828 tsaphown >, with horses <5483 cuwc >, and with chariots <7393 rekeb >, and with horsemen <6571 parash >, and companies <6951 qahal >, and much <7227 rab > people <5971 <am >.


 8 He shall slay <4191 muwth > with the sword <2719 chereb > thy daughters <1121 ben > in the field <7704 sadeh >: and he shall make <5414 nathan > a fort <1785 dayeq > against <5921 <al > thee, and cast <8210 shaphak > a mount <5550 col@lah > against <5921 <al > thee, and lift <6965 quwm > up the buckler <6793 tsinnah > against <5921 <al > thee.


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


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


 11 With the hoofs <6541 parcah > of his horses <5483 cuwc > shall he tread <7429 ramac > down all <3605 kol > thy streets <2351 chuwts >: he shall slay <4191 muwth > thy people <5971 <am > by the sword <2719 chereb >, and thy strong <5797 <oz > garrisons <4676 matstsebah > shall go <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad > to the ground <0776 >erets >.


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


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


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


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


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


 17 And they shall take <5375 nasa> > up a lamentation <7015 qiynah > for thee, and say <0559 >amar > to thee, How <0349 >eyk > art thou destroyed <6>, [that wast] inhabited <3427 yashab > of seafaring <3220 yam > men, the renowned <1984 halal > city <5892 <iyr >, which <0834 >aher > wast strong <2389 chazaq > in the sea <3220 yam >, she and her inhabitants <3427 yashab >, which <0834 >aher > cause <5414 nathan > their terror <2851 chittiyth > [to be] on all <3605 kol > that haunt <3427 yashab > it!


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


 19 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih >; When I shall make <5414 nathan > thee a desolate <2717 charab > city <5892 <iyr >, like the cities <5892 <iyr > that are not inhabited <3427 yashab >; when I shall bring <5927 <alah > up the deep <8415 t@howm > upon thee, and great <7227 rab > waters <4325 mayim > shall cover
