Ezekiel:7-8



Seeker Overlay ON

* Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me , saying , * Also , thou son of man , thus saith the Lord GOD unto the land of Israel ; An end , the end is come upon the four corners of the land . * Now is the end come upon thee , and I will send mine anger upon thee , and will judge thee according to thy ways , and will recompense upon thee all thine abominations . * And mine eye shall not spare thee , neither will I have pity : but I will recompense thy ways upon thee , and thine abominations shall be in the midst of thee : and ye shall know that I am the LORD . * Thus saith the Lord GOD ; An evil , an only evil , behold , is come . * An end is come , the end is come : it watcheth for thee ; behold , it is come . * The morning is come unto thee , O thou that dwellest in the land : the time is come , the day of trouble is near , and not the sounding again of the mountains . * Now will I shortly pour out my fury upon thee , and accomplish mine anger upon thee : and I will judge thee according to thy ways , and will recompense thee for all thine abominations . * And mine eye shall not spare , neither will I have pity : I will recompense thee according to thy ways and thine abominations that are in the midst of thee ; and ye shall know that I am the LORD that smiteth . * Behold the day , behold , it is come : the morning is gone forth ; the rod hath blossomed , pride hath budded . * Violence is risen up into a rod of wickedness : none of them shall remain , nor of their multitude , nor of any of theirs : neither shall there be wailing for them . * The time is come , the day draweth near : let not the buyer rejoice , nor the seller mourn : for wrath is upon all the multitude thereof . * For the seller shall not return to that which is sold , although they were yet alive : for the vision is touching the whole multitude thereof , which shall not return ; neither shall any strengthen himself in the iniquity of his life . * They have blown the trumpet , even to make all ready ; but none goeth to the battle : for my wrath is upon all the multitude thereof . * The sword is without , and the pestilence and the famine within : he that is in the field shall die with the sword ; and he that is in the city , famine and pestilence shall devour him . * But they that escape of them shall escape , and shall be on the mountains like doves of the valleys , all of them mourning , every one for his iniquity . * All hands shall be feeble , and all knees shall be weak as water . * They shall also gird themselves with sackcloth , and horror shall cover them ; and shame shall be upon all faces , and baldness upon all their heads . * They shall cast their silver in the streets , and their gold shall be removed : their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD : they shall not satisfy their souls , neither fill their bowels : because it is the stumblingblock of their iniquity . * As for the beauty of his ornament , he set it in majesty : but they made the images of their abominations and of their detestable things therein : therefore have I set it far from them . * And I will give it into the hands of the strangers for a prey , and to the wicked of the earth for a spoil ; and they shall pollute it . * My face will I turn also from them , and they shall pollute my secret place : for the robbers shall enter into it , and defile it . * Make a chain : for the land is full of bloody crimes , and the city is full of violence . * Wherefore I will bring the worst of the heathen , and they shall possess their houses : I will also make the pomp of the strong to cease ; and their holy places shall be defiled . * Destruction cometh ; and they shall seek peace , and there shall be none . * Mischief shall come upon mischief , and rumour shall be upon rumour ; then shall they seek a vision of the prophet ; but the law shall perish from the priest , and counsel from the ancients . * The king shall mourn , and the prince shall be clothed with desolation , and the hands of the people of the land shall be troubled : I will do unto them after their way , and according to their deserts will I judge them ; and they shall know that I am the LORD . * And it came to pass in the sixth year , in the sixth month , in the fifth day of the month , as I sat in mine house , and the elders of Judah sat before me , that the hand of the Lord GOD fell there upon me . * Then I beheld , and lo a likeness as the appearance of fire : from the appearance of his loins even downward , fire ; and from his loins even upward , as the appearance of brightness , as the colour of amber . * And he put forth the form of an hand , and took me by a lock of mine head ; and the spirit lifted me up between the earth and the heaven , and brought me in the visions of God to Jerusalem , to the door of the inner gate that looketh toward the north ; where was the seat of the image of jealousy , which provoketh to jealousy . * And , behold , the glory of the God of Israel was there , according to the vision that I saw in the plain . * Then said he unto me , Son of man , lift up thine eyes now the way toward the north . So I lifted up mine eyes the way toward the north , and behold northward at the gate of the altar this image of jealousy in the entry . * He said furthermore unto me , Son of man , seest thou what they do ? even the great abominations that the house of Israel committeth here , that I should go far off from my sanctuary ? but turn thee yet again , and thou shalt see greater abominations . * And he brought me to the door of the court ; and when I looked , behold a hole in the wall . * Then said he unto me , Son of man , dig now in the wall : and when I had digged in the wall , behold a door . * And he said unto me , Go in , and behold the wicked abominations that they do here . * So I went in and saw ; and behold every form of creeping things , and abominable beasts , and all the idols of the house of Israel , pourtrayed upon the wall round about . * And there stood before them seventy men of the ancients of the house of Israel , and in the midst of them stood Jaazaniah the son of Shaphan , with every man his censer in his hand ; and a thick cloud of incense went up . * Then said he unto me , Son of man , hast thou seen what the ancients of the house of Israel do in the dark , every man in the chambers of his imagery ? for they say , The LORD seeth us not ; the LORD hath forsaken the earth . * He said also unto me , Turn thee yet again , and thou shalt see greater abominations that they do . * Then he brought me to the door of the gate of the LORD 'S house which was toward the north ; and , behold , there sat women weeping for Tammuz . * Then said he unto me , Hast thou seen this , O son of man ? turn thee yet again , and thou shalt see greater abominations than these . * And he brought me into the inner court of the LORD 'S house , and , behold , at the door of the temple of the LORD , between the porch and the altar , were about five and twenty men , with their backs toward the temple of the LORD , and their faces toward the east ; and they worshipped the sun toward the east . * Then he said unto me , Hast thou seen this , O son of man ? Is it a light thing to the house of Judah that they commit the abominations which they commit here ? for they have filled the land with violence , and have returned to provoke me to anger : and , lo , they put the branch to their nose . * Therefore will I also deal in fury : mine eye shall not spare , neither will I have pity : and though they cry in mine ears with a loud voice , yet will I not hear them . * He cried also in mine ears with a loud voice , saying , Cause them that have charge over the city to draw near , even every man with his destroying weapon in his hand .
