Ezekiel:10-11
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Then I looked ,
and ,
behold ,
in the firmament that was above the head of the cherubims there appeared over them as it were a sapphire stone ,
as the appearance of the likeness of a throne .
*
And he spake unto the man clothed with linen ,
and said ,
Go in between the wheels ,
even under the cherub ,
and fill thine hand with coals of fire from between the cherubims ,
and scatter them over the city .
And he went in in my sight .
*
Now the cherubims stood on the right side of the house ,
when the man went in ;
and the cloud filled the inner court .
*
Then the glory of the LORD went up from the cherub ,
and stood over the threshold of the house ;
and the house was filled with the cloud ,
and the court was full of the brightness of the LORD '
S glory .
*
And the sound of the cherubims '
wings was heard even to the outer court ,
as the voice of the Almighty God when he speaketh .
*
And it came to pass ,
that when he had commanded the man clothed with linen ,
saying ,
Take fire from between the wheels ,
from between the cherubims ;
then he went in ,
and stood beside the wheels .
*
And one cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubims unto the fire that was between the cherubims ,
and took thereof ,
and put it into the hands of him that was clothed with linen :
who took it ,
and went out .
*
And there appeared in the cherubims the form of a man '
s hand under their wings .
*
And when I looked ,
behold the four wheels by the cherubims ,
one wheel by one cherub ,
and another wheel by another cherub :
and the appearance of the wheels was as the colour of a beryl stone .
*
And as for their appearances ,
they four had one likeness ,
as if a wheel had been in the midst of a wheel .
*
When they went ,
they went upon their four sides ;
they turned not as they went ,
but to the place whither the head looked they followed it ;
they turned not as they went .
*
And their whole body ,
and their backs ,
and their hands ,
and their wings ,
and the wheels ,
were full of eyes round about ,
even the wheels that they four had .
*
As for the wheels ,
it was cried unto them in my hearing ,
O wheel .
*
And every one had four faces :
the first face was the face of a cherub ,
and the second face was the face of a man ,
and the third the face of a lion ,
and the fourth the face of an eagle .
*
And the cherubims were lifted up .
This is the living creature that I saw by the river of Chebar .
*
And when the cherubims went ,
the wheels went by them :
and when the cherubims lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth ,
the same wheels also turned not from beside them .
*
When they stood ,
these stood ;
and when they were lifted up ,
these lifted up themselves also :
for the spirit of the living creature was in them .
*
Then the glory of the LORD departed from off the threshold of the house ,
and stood over the cherubims .
*
And the cherubims lifted up their wings ,
and mounted up from the earth in my sight :
when they went out ,
the wheels also were beside them ,
and every one stood at the door of the east gate of the LORD '
S house ;
and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above .
*
This is the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river of Chebar ;
and I knew that they were the cherubims .
*
Every one had four faces apiece ,
and every one four wings ;
and the likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings .
*
And the likeness of their faces was the same faces which I saw by the river of Chebar ,
their appearances and themselves :
they went every one straight forward .
*
Moreover the spirit lifted me up ,
and brought me unto the east gate of the LORD '
S house ,
which looketh eastward :
and behold at the door of the gate five and twenty men ;
among whom I saw Jaazaniah the son of Azur ,
and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah ,
princes of the people .
*
Then said he unto me ,
Son of man ,
these are the men that devise mischief ,
and give wicked counsel in this city :
*
Which say ,
It is not near ;
let us build houses :
this city is the caldron ,
and we be the flesh .
*
Therefore prophesy against them ,
prophesy ,
O son of man .
*
And the Spirit of the LORD fell upon me ,
and said unto me ,
Speak ;
Thus saith the LORD ;
Thus have ye said ,
O house of Israel :
for I know the things that come into your mind ,
every one of them .
*
Ye have multiplied your slain in this city ,
and ye have filled the streets thereof with the slain .
*
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD ;
Your slain whom ye have laid in the midst of it ,
they are the flesh ,
and this city is the caldron :
but I will bring you forth out of the midst of it .
*
Ye have feared the sword ;
and I will bring a sword upon you ,
saith the Lord GOD .
*
And I will bring you out of the midst thereof ,
and deliver you into the hands of strangers ,
and will execute judgments among you .
*
Ye shall fall by the sword ;
I will judge you in the border of Israel ;
and ye shall know that I am the LORD .
*
This city shall not be your caldron ,
neither shall ye be the flesh in the midst thereof ;
but I will judge you in the border of Israel :
*
And ye shall know that I am the LORD :
for ye have not walked in my statutes ,
neither executed my judgments ,
but have done after the manners of the heathen that are round about you .
*
And it came to pass ,
when I prophesied ,
that Pelatiah the son of Benaiah died .
Then fell I down upon my face ,
and cried with a loud voice ,
and said ,
Ah Lord GOD !
wilt thou make a full end of the remnant of Israel ?
*
Again the word of the LORD came unto me ,
saying ,
*
Son of man ,
thy brethren ,
even thy brethren ,
the men of thy kindred ,
and all the house of Israel wholly ,
are they unto whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said ,
Get you far from the LORD :
unto us is this land given in possession .
*
Therefore say ,
Thus saith the Lord GOD ;
Although I have cast them far off among the heathen ,
and although I have scattered them among the countries ,
yet will I be to them as a little sanctuary in the countries where they shall come .
*
Therefore say ,
Thus saith the Lord GOD ;
I will even gather you from the people ,
and assemble you out of the countries where ye have been scattered ,
and I will give you the land of Israel .
*
And they shall come thither ,
and they shall take away all the detestable things thereof and all the abominations thereof from thence .
*
And I will give them one heart ,
and I will put a new spirit within you ;
and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh ,
and will give them an heart of flesh :
*
That they may walk in my statutes ,
and keep mine ordinances ,
and do them :
and they shall be my people ,
and I will be their God .
*
But as for them whose heart walketh after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations ,
I will recompense their way upon their own heads ,
saith the Lord GOD .
*
Then did the cherubims lift up their wings ,
and the wheels beside them ;
and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above .
*
And the glory of the LORD went up from the midst of the city ,
and stood upon the mountain which is on the east side of the city .
*
Afterwards the spirit took me up ,
and brought me in a vision by the Spirit of God into Chaldea ,
to them of the captivity .
So the vision that I had seen went up from me .
*
Then I spake unto them of the captivity all the things that the LORD had shewed me .
*
The word of the LORD also came unto me ,
saying ,
