  • EZE-20:1 And it came to pass in the seventh year, in the fifth

  • [month], the



  • tenth [day] of the month, [that] certain of the elders of Israel

  • came to



  • inquire of the LORD, and sat before me.



  • EZE-20:2 Then came the word of the LORD unto me, saying,



  • EZE-20:3 Son of man, speak unto the elders of Israel, and say

  • unto them, Thus



  • saith the Lord GOD; Are ye come to inquire of me? [As] I live,

  • saith the Lord



  • GOD, I will not be inquired of by you.



  • EZE-20:4 Wilt thou judge them, son of man, wilt thou judge

  • [them]? cause them



  • to know the abominations of their fathers:



  • EZE-20:5 And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day

  • when I chose



  • Israel, and lifted up mine hand unto the seed of the house of

  • Jacob, and made



  • myself known unto them in the land of Egypt, when I lifted up

  • mine hand unto



  • them, saying, I [am] the LORD your God;



  • EZE-20:6 In the day [that] I lifted up mine hand unto them, to

  • bring them



  • forth of the land of Egypt into a land that I had espied for

  • them, flowing



  • with milk and honey, which [is] the glory of all lands:



  • EZE-20:7 Then said I unto them, Cast ye away every man the

  • abominations of



  • his eyes, and defile not yourselves with the idols of Egypt: I

  • [am] the LORD



  • your God.



  • EZE-20:8 But they rebelled against me, and would not hearken

  • unto me: they



  • did not every man cast away the abominations of their eyes,

  • neither did they



  • forsake the idols of Egypt: then I said, I will pour out my fury

  • upon them, to



  • accomplish my anger against them in the midst of the land of

  • Egypt.



  • EZE-20:9 But I wrought for my name's sake, that it should not

  • be polluted



  • before the heathen, among whom they [were], in whose sight I

  • made myself known



  • unto them, in bringing them forth out of the land of Egypt.



  • EZE-20:10 Wherefore I caused them to go forth out of the land

  • of Egypt, and



  • brought them into the wilderness.



  • EZE-20:11 And I gave them my statutes, and showed them my

  • judgments, which



  • [if] a man do, he shall even live in them.



  • EZE-20:12 Moreover also I gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign

  • between me and



  • them, that they might know that I [am] the LORD that sanctify

  • them.



  • EZE-20:13 But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the

  • wilderness: they



  • walked not in my statutes, and they despised my judgments, which

  • [if] a man



  • do, he shall even live in them; and my sabbaths they greatly

  • polluted: then I



  • said, I would pour out my fury upon them in the wilderness, to

  • consume them.



  • EZE-20:14 But I wrought for my name's sake, that it should not

  • be polluted



  • before the heathen, in whose sight I brought them out.



  • EZE-20:15 Yet also I lifted up my hand unto them in the

  • wilderness, that I



  • would not bring them into the land which I had given [them],

  • flowing with milk



  • and honey, which [is] the glory of all lands;



  • EZE-20:16 Because they despised my judgments, and walked not in

  • my statutes,



  • but polluted my sabbaths: for their heart went after their idols.



  • EZE-20:17 Nevertheless mine eye spared them from destroying

  • them, neither did



  • I make an end of them in the wilderness.



  • EZE-20:18 But I said unto their children in the wilderness,

  • Walk ye not in



  • the statutes of your fathers, neither observe their judgments,

  • nor defile



  • yourselves with their idols:



  • EZE-20:19 I [am] the LORD your God; walk in my statutes, and

  • keep my



  • judgments, and do them;



  • EZE-20:20 And hallow my sabbaths; and they shall be a sign

  • between me and



  • you, that ye may know that I [am] the LORD your God.



  • EZE-20:21 Notwithstanding the children rebelled against me:

  • they walked not



  • in my statutes, neither kept my judgments to do them, which [if]

  • a man do, he



  • shall even live in them; they polluted my sabbaths: then I said,

  • I would pour



  • out my fury upon them, to accomplish my anger against them in

  • the wilderness.



  • EZE-20:22 Nevertheless I withdrew mine hand, and wrought for my

  • name's sake,



  • that it should not be polluted in the sight of the heathen, in

  • whose sight I



  • brought them forth.



  • EZE-20:23 I lifted up mine hand unto them also in the

  • wilderness, that I



  • would scatter them among the heathen, and disperse them through

  • the countries;







  • EZE-20:24 Because they had not executed my judgments, but had

  • despised my



  • statutes, and had polluted my sabbaths, and their eyes were

  • after their



  • fathers' idols.



  • EZE-20:25 Wherefore I gave them also statutes [that were] not

  • good, and



  • judgments whereby they should not live;



  • EZE-20:26 And I polluted them in their own gifts, in that they

  • caused to pass



  • through [the fire] all that openeth the womb, that I might make

  • them desolate,



  • to the end that they might know that I [am] the LORD.



  • EZE-20:27 Therefore, son of man, speak unto the house of Israel,

  • and say unto



  • them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Yet in this your fathers have

  • blasphemed me, in



  • that they have committed a trespass against me.



  • EZE-20:28 [For] when I had brought them into the land, [for]

  • the which I



  • lifted up mine hand to give it to them, then they saw every high

  • hill, and all



  • the thick trees, and they offered there their sacrifices, and

  • there they



  • presented the provocation of their offering: there also they

  • made their sweet



  • savour, and poured out there their drink offerings.



  • EZE-20:29 Then I said unto them, What [is] the high place

  • whereunto ye go?



  • And the name thereof is called Bamah unto this day.



  • EZE-20:30 Wherefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith

  • the Lord GOD;



  • Are ye polluted after the manner of your fathers? and commit ye

  • whoredom after



  • their abominations?



  • EZE-20:31 For when ye offer your gifts, when ye make your sons

  • to pass



  • through the fire, ye pollute yourselves with all your idols,

  • even unto this



  • day: and shall I be inquired of by you, O house of Israel? [As]

  • I live, saith



  • the Lord GOD, I will not be inquired of by you.



  • EZE-20:32 And that which cometh into your mind shall not be at

  • all, that ye



  • say, We will be as the heathen, as the families of the countries,

  • to serve



  • wood and stone.



  • EZE-20:33 [As] I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely with a mighty

  • hand, and



  • with a stretched out arm, and with fury poured out, will I rule

  • over you:



  • EZE-20:34 And I will bring you out from the people, and will

  • gather you out



  • of the countries wherein ye are scattered, with a mighty hand,

  • and with a



  • stretched out arm, and with fury poured out.



  • EZE-20:35 And I will bring you into the wilderness of the

  • people, and there



  • will I plead with you face to face.



  • EZE-20:36 Like as I pleaded with your fathers in the wilderness

  • of the land



  • of Egypt, so will I plead with you, saith the Lord GOD.



  • EZE-20:37 And I will cause you to pass under the rod, and I

  • will bring you



  • into the bond of the covenant:



  • EZE-20:38 And I will purge out from among you the rebels, and

  • them that



  • transgress against me: I will bring them forth out of the

  • country where they



  • sojourn, and they shall not enter into the land of Israel: and

  • ye shall know



  • that I [am] the LORD.



  • EZE-20:39 As for you, O house of Israel, thus saith the Lord

  • GOD; Go ye,



  • serve ye every one his idols, and hereafter [also], if ye will

  • not hearken



  • unto me: but pollute ye my holy name no more with your gifts,

  • and with your



  • idols.



  • EZE-20:40 For in mine holy mountain, in the mountain of the

  • height of Israel,



  • saith the Lord GOD, there shall all the house of Israel, all of

  • them in the



  • land, serve me: there will I accept them, and there will I

  • require your



  • offerings, and the firstfruits of your oblations, with all your

  • holy things.



  • EZE-20:41 I will accept you with your sweet savour, when I

  • bring you out from



  • the people, and gather you out of the countries wherein ye have

  • been



  • scattered; and I will be sanctified in you before the heathen.



  • EZE-20:42 And ye shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I shall

  • bring you into



  • the land of Israel, into the country [for] the which I lifted up

  • mine hand to



  • give it to your fathers.



  • EZE-20:43 And there shall ye remember your ways, and all your

  • doings, wherein



  • ye have been defiled; and ye shall loathe yourselves in your own

  • sight for all



  • your evils that ye have committed.



  • EZE-20:44 And ye shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I have

  • wrought with



  • you for my name's sake, not according to your wicked ways, nor

  • according to



  • your corrupt doings, O ye house of Israel, saith the Lord GOD.



  • EZE-20:45 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,



  • EZE-20:46 Son of man, set thy face toward the south, and drop

  • [thy word]



  • toward the south, and prophesy against the forest of the south

  • field;



  • EZE-20:47 And say to the forest of the south, Hear the word of

  • the LORD; Thus



  • saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will kindle a fire in thee, and it

  • shall devour



  • every green tree in thee, and every dry tree: the flaming flame

  • shall not be



  • quenched, and all faces from the south to the north shall be

  • burned therein.



  • EZE-20:48 And all flesh shall see that I the LORD have kindled

  • it: it shall



  • not be quenched.



  • EZE-20:49 Then said I, Ah Lord GOD! they say of me, Doth he not

  • speak



  • parables?
