nkjv@Ezekiel:1:22 @ The likeness of the firmament above the heads of the living creatures was like the color of an awesome crystal, stretched out over their heads.

nkjv@Ezekiel:1:23 @ And under the firmament their wings spread out straight, one toward another. Each one had two which covered one side, and each one had two which covered the other side of the body.

nkjv@Ezekiel:1:25 @ A voice came from above the firmament that was over their heads; whenever they stood, they let down their wings.

nkjv@Ezekiel:1:26 @ And above the firmament over their heads was the likeness of a throne, in appearance like a sapphire stone; on the likeness of the throne was a likeness with the appearance of a man high above it.

nkjv@Ezekiel:8:3 @ He stretched out the form of a hand, and took me by a lock of my hair; and the Spirit lifted me up between earth and heaven, and brought me in visions of God to Jerusalem, to the door of the north gate of the inner court, where the seat of the image of jealousy was, which provokes to jealousy.

nkjv@Ezekiel:8:5 @ Then He said to me, "Son of man, lift your eyes now toward the north." So I lifted my eyes toward the north, and there, north of the altar gate, was this image of jealousy in the entrance.

nkjv@Ezekiel:8:6 @ Furthermore He said to me, "Son of man, do you see what they are doing, the great abominations that the house of Israel commits here, to make Me go far away from My sanctuary? Now turn again, you will see greater abominations."

nkjv@Ezekiel:8:7 @ So He brought me to the door of the court; and when I looked, there was a hole in the wall.

nkjv@Ezekiel:8:8 @ Then He said to me, "Son of man, dig into the wall"; and when I dug into the wall, there was a door.

nkjv@Ezekiel:8:9 @ And He said to me, "Go in, and see the wicked abominations which they are doing there."

nkjv@Ezekiel:8:11 @ And there stood before them seventy men of the elders of the house of Israel, and in their midst stood Jaazaniah the son of Shaphan. Each man had a censer in his hand, and a thick cloud of incense went up.

nkjv@Ezekiel:8:12 @ Then He said to me, "Son of man, have you seen what the elders of the house of Israel do in the dark, every man in the room of his idols? For they say, "The LORD does not see us, the LORD has forsaken the land."'

nkjv@Ezekiel:8:13 @ And He said to me, "Turn again, and you will see greater abominations that they are doing."

nkjv@Ezekiel:8:14 @ So He brought me to the door of the north gate of the LORD's house; and to my dismay, women were sitting there weeping for Tammuz.

nkjv@Ezekiel:8:15 @ Then He said to me, "Have you seen this, O son of man? Turn again, you will see greater abominations than these."

nkjv@Ezekiel:8:16 @ So He brought me into the inner court of the LORD's house; and there, at the door of the temple of the LORD, between the porch and the altar, were about twenty-five men with their backs toward the temple of the LORD and their faces toward the east, and they were worshiping the sun toward the east.

nkjv@Ezekiel:8:17 @ And He said to me, "Have you seen this, O son of man? Is it a trivial thing to the house of Judah to commit the abominations which they commit here?

nkjv@Ezekiel:40:47 @ And he measured the court, one hundred cubits long and one hundred cubits wide, foursquare. The altar was in front of the temple.

nkjv@Ezekiel:40:48 @ Then he brought me to the vestibule of the temple and measured the doorposts of the vestibule, five cubits on this side and five cubits on that side; and the width of the gateway was three cubits on this side and three cubits on that side.

nkjv@Ezekiel:41:1 @ Then he brought me into the sanctuary and measured the doorposts, six cubits wide on one side and six cubits wide on the other side--the width of the tabernacle.

nkjv@Ezekiel:41:5 @ Next, he measured the wall of the temple, six cubits. The width of each side chamber all around the temple was four cubits on every side.

nkjv@Ezekiel:41:7 @ As one went up from story to story, the side chambers became wider all around, because their supporting ledges in the wall of the temple ascended like steps; therefore the width of the structure increased as one went up from the lowest story to the highest by way of the middle one.

nkjv@Ezekiel:41:15 @ He measured the length of the building behind it, facing the separating courtyard, with its galleries on the one side and on the other side, one hundred cubits, as well as the inner temple and the porches of the court,

nkjv@Ezekiel:41:16 @ their doorposts and the beveled window frames. And the galleries all around their three stories opposite the threshold were paneled with wood from the ground to the windows--the windows were covered--

nkjv@Ezekiel:41:17 @ from the space above the door, even to the inner room, as well as outside, and on every wall all around, inside and outside, by measure.

nkjv@Ezekiel:42:1 @ Then he brought me out into the outer court, by the way toward the north; and he brought me into the chamber which was opposite the separating courtyard, and which was opposite the building toward the north.

nkjv@Ezekiel:42:3 @ Opposite the inner court of twenty cubits, and opposite the pavement of the outer court, was gallery against gallery in three stories.

nkjv@Ezekiel:42:13 @ Then he said to me, "The north chambers and the south chambers, which are opposite the separating courtyard, are the holy chambers where the priests who approach the LORD shall eat the most holy offerings. There they shall lay the most holy offerings--the grain offering, the sin offering, and the trespass offering--for the place is holy.

nkjv@Ezekiel:42:14 @ When the priests enter them, they shall not go out of the holy chamber into the outer court; but there they shall leave their garments in which they minister, for they are holy. They shall put on other garments; then they may approach that which is for the people."

nkjv@Ezekiel:42:15 @ Now when he had finished measuring the inner temple, he brought me out through the gateway that faces toward the east, and measured it all around.

nkjv@Ezekiel:42:20 @ He measured it on the four sides; it had a wall all around, five hundred cubits long and five hundred wide, to separate the holy areas from the common.

nkjv@Ezekiel:43:1 @ Afterward he brought me to the gate, the gate that faces toward the east.

nkjv@Ezekiel:43:2 @ And behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east. His voice was like the sound of many waters; and the earth shone with His glory.

nkjv@Ezekiel:43:3 @ It was like the appearance of the vision which I saw--like the vision which I saw when I came to destroy the city. The visions were like the vision which I saw by the River Chebar; and I fell on my face.

nkjv@Ezekiel:43:4 @ And the glory of the LORD came into the temple by way of the gate which faces toward the east.

nkjv@Ezekiel:43:5 @ The Spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner court; and behold, the glory of the LORD filled the temple.

nkjv@Ezekiel:43:6 @ Then I heard Him speaking to me from the temple, while a man stood beside me.

nkjv@Daniel:7:11 @ "I watched then because of the sound of the pompous words which the horn was speaking; I watched till the beast was slain, and its body destroyed and given to the burning flame.

nkjv@Daniel:7:12 @ As for the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away, yet their lives were prolonged for a season and a time.

nkjv@Daniel:7:13 @ "I was watching in the night visions, And behold, One like the Son of Man, Coming with the clouds of heaven! He came to the Ancient of Days, And they brought Him near before Him.

nkjv@Daniel:7:15 @ "I, Daniel, was grieved in my spirit within my body, and the visions of my head troubled me.

nkjv@Daniel:7:16 @ I came near to one of those who stood by, and asked him the truth of all this. So he told me and made known to me the interpretation of these things:

nkjv@Daniel:7:20 @ and the ten horns that were on its head, and the other horn which came up, before which three fell, namely, that horn which had eyes and a mouth which spoke pompous words, whose appearance was greater than his fellows.

nkjv@Daniel:7:22 @ until the Ancient of Days came, and a judgment was made in favor of the saints of the Most High, and the time came for the saints to possess the kingdom.

nkjv@Daniel:7:25 @ He shall speak pompous words against the Most High, Shall persecute the saints of the Most High, And shall intend to change times and law. Then the saints shall be given into his hand For a time and times and half a time.

nkjv@Daniel:7:26 @ "But the court shall be seated, And they shall take away his dominion, To consume and destroy it forever.

nkjv@Daniel:7:28 @ "This is the end of the account. As for me, Daniel, my thoughts greatly troubled me, and my countenance changed; but I kept the matter in my heart."

nkjv@Daniel:8:1 @ In the third year of the reign of King Belshazzar a vision appeared to me--to me, Daniel--after the one that appeared to me the first time.

nkjv@Daniel:8:3 @ Then I lifted my eyes and saw, and there, standing beside the river, was a ram which had two horns, and the two horns were high; but one was higher than the other, and the higher one came up last.

nkjv@Daniel:8:4 @ I saw the ram pushing westward, northward, and southward, so that no animal could withstand him; nor was there any that could deliver from his hand, but he did according to his will and became great.

nkjv@Daniel:8:5 @ And as I was considering, suddenly a male goat came from the west, across the surface of the whole earth, without touching the ground; and the goat had a notable horn between his eyes.

nkjv@Daniel:8:6 @ Then he came to the ram that had two horns, which I had seen standing beside the river, and ran at him with furious power.

nkjv@Daniel:8:8 @ Therefore the male goat grew very great; but when he became strong, the large horn was broken, and in place of it four notable ones came up toward the four winds of heaven.

nkjv@Daniel:8:9 @ And out of one of them came a little horn which grew exceedingly great toward the south, toward the east, and toward the Glorious Land.

nkjv@Daniel:8:10 @ And it grew up to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host and some of the stars to the ground, and trampled them.

nkjv@Daniel:8:14 @ And he said to me, "For two thousand three hundred days; then the sanctuary shall be cleansed."

nkjv@Daniel:8:15 @ Then it happened, when I, Daniel, had seen the vision and was seeking the meaning, that suddenly there stood before me one having the appearance of a man.

nkjv@Daniel:8:17 @ So he came near where I stood, and when he came I was afraid and fell on my face; but he said to me, "Understand, son of man, that the vision refers to the time of the end."

nkjv@Daniel:8:18 @ Now, as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep sleep with my face to the ground; but he touched me, and stood me upright.

nkjv@Daniel:8:19 @ And he said, "Look, I am making known to you what shall happen in the latter time of the indignation; for at the appointed time the end shall be.

nkjv@Daniel:8:20 @ The ram which you saw, having the two horns--they are the kings of Media and Persia.

nkjv@Daniel:8:23 @ "And in the latter time of their kingdom, When the transgressors have reached their fullness, A king shall arise, Having fierce features, Who understands sinister schemes.

nkjv@Daniel:8:25 @ "Through his cunning He shall cause deceit to prosper under his rule; And he shall exalt himself in his heart. He shall destroy many in their prosperity. He shall even rise against the Prince of princes; But he shall be broken without human means.

nkjv@Daniel:9:1 @ In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of the lineage of the Medes, who was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans--

nkjv@Daniel:9:4 @ And I prayed to the LORD my God, and made confession, and said, "O Lord, great and awesome God, who keeps His covenant and mercy with those who love Him, and with those who keep His commandments,

nkjv@Daniel:9:5 @ we have sinned and committed iniquity, we have done wickedly and rebelled, even by departing from Your precepts and Your judgments.

nkjv@Daniel:9:6 @ Neither have we heeded Your servants the prophets, who spoke in Your name to our kings and our princes, to our fathers and all the people of the land.

nkjv@Daniel:9:7 @ O Lord, righteousness belongs to You, but to us shame of face, as it is this day--to the men of Judah, to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and all Israel, those near and those far off in all the countries to which You have driven them, because of the unfaithfulness which they have committed against You.

nkjv@Daniel:9:8 @ "O Lord, to us belongs shame of face, to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, because we have sinned against You.

nkjv@Daniel:9:9 @ To the Lord our God belong mercy and forgiveness, though we have rebelled against Him.

nkjv@Daniel:9:12 @ And He has confirmed His words, which He spoke against us and against our judges who judged us, by bringing upon us a great disaster; for under the whole heaven such has never been done as what has been done to Jerusalem.

nkjv@Daniel:9:13 @ "As it is written in the Law of Moses, all this disaster has come upon us; yet we have not made our prayer before the LORD our God, that we might turn from our iniquities and understand Your truth.

nkjv@Daniel:9:15 @ And now, O Lord our God, who brought Your people out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and made Yourself a name, as it is this day--we have sinned, we have done wickedly!

nkjv@Daniel:9:18 @ O my God, incline Your ear and hear; open Your eyes and see our desolations, and the city which is called by Your name; for we do not present our supplications before You because of our righteous deeds, but because of Your great mercies.

nkjv@Daniel:9:19 @ O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, listen and act! Do not delay for Your own sake, my God, for Your city and Your people are called by Your name."

nkjv@Daniel:9:21 @ yes, while I was speaking in prayer, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, reached me about the time of the evening offering.

nkjv@Daniel:9:22 @ And he informed me, and talked with me, and said, "O Daniel, I have now come forth to give you skill to understand.

nkjv@Daniel:9:23 @ At the beginning of your supplications the command went out, and I have come to tell you, for you are greatly beloved; therefore consider the matter, and understand the vision:

nkjv@Daniel:9:25 @ "Know therefore and understand, That from the going forth of the command To restore and build Jerusalem Until Messiah the Prince, There shall be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks; The street shall be built again, and the wall, Even in troublesome times.

nkjv@Daniel:9:26 @ "And after the sixty-two weeks Messiah shall be cut off, but not for Himself; And the people of the prince who is to come Shall destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end of it shall be with a flood, And till the end of the war desolations are determined.

nkjv@Daniel:10:1 @ In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a message was revealed to Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar. The message was true, but the appointed time was long; and he understood the message, and had understanding of the vision.

nkjv@Daniel:10:3 @ I ate no pleasant food, no meat or wine came into my mouth, nor did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled.

nkjv@Daniel:10:7 @ And I, Daniel, alone saw the vision, for the men who were with me did not see the vision; but a great terror fell upon them, so that they fled to hide themselves.

nkjv@Daniel:10:8 @ Therefore I was left alone when I saw this great vision, and no strength remained in me; for my vigor was turned to frailty in me, and I retained no strength.

nkjv@Daniel:10:10 @ Suddenly, a hand touched me, which made me tremble on my knees and on the palms of my hands.

nkjv@Daniel:10:11 @ And he said to me, "O Daniel, man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak to you, and stand upright, for I have now been sent to you." While he was speaking this word to me, I stood trembling.

nkjv@Daniel:10:12 @ Then he said to me, "Do not fear, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard; and I have come because of your words.

nkjv@Daniel:10:13 @ But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days; and behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I had been left alone there with the kings of Persia.

nkjv@Daniel:10:14 @ Now I have come to make you understand what will happen to your people in the latter days, for the vision refers to many days yet to come."

nkjv@Daniel:10:15 @ When he had spoken such words to me, I turned my face toward the ground and became speechless.

nkjv@Daniel:10:16 @ And suddenly, one having the likeness of the sons of men touched my lips; then I opened my mouth and spoke, saying to him who stood before me, "My lord, because of the vision my sorrows have overwhelmed me, and I have retained no strength.

nkjv@Daniel:10:17 @ For how can this servant of my lord talk with you, my lord? As for me, no strength remains in me now, nor is any breath left in me."

nkjv@Daniel:10:18 @ Then again, the one having the likeness of a man touched me and strengthened me.

nkjv@Daniel:10:19 @ And he said, "O man greatly beloved, fear not! Peace be to you; be strong, yes, be strong!" So when he spoke to me I was strengthened, and said, "Let my lord speak, for you have strengthened me."

nkjv@Daniel:10:20 @ Then he said, "Do you know why I have come to you? And now I must return to fight with the prince of Persia; and when I have gone forth, indeed the prince of Greece will come.

nkjv@Daniel:10:21 @ But I will tell you what is noted in the Scripture of Truth. (No one upholds me against these, except Michael your prince.

nkjv@Daniel:11:1 @ "Also in the first year of Darius the Mede, I, even I, stood up to confirm and strengthen him.)

nkjv@Daniel:11:5 @ "Also the king of the South shall become strong, as well as one of his princes; and he shall gain power over him and have dominion. His dominion shall be a great dominion.

nkjv@Daniel:11:6 @ And at the end of some years they shall join forces, for the daughter of the king of the South shall go to the king of the North to make an agreement; but she shall not retain the power of her authority, and neither he nor his authority shall stand; but she shall be given up, with those who brought her, and with him who begot her, and with him who strengthened her in those times.

nkjv@Daniel:11:7 @ But from a branch of her roots one shall arise in his place, who shall come with an army, enter the fortress of the king of the North, and deal with them and prevail.

nkjv@Daniel:11:9 @ "Also the king of the North shall come to the kingdom of the king of the South, but shall return to his own land.

nkjv@Daniel:11:13 @ For the king of the North will return and muster a multitude greater than the former, and shall certainly come at the end of some years with a great army and much equipment.

nkjv@Daniel:11:23 @ And after the league is made with him he shall act deceitfully, for he shall come up and become strong with a small number of people.

nkjv@Daniel:11:24 @ He shall enter peaceably, even into the richest places of the province; and he shall do what his fathers have not done, nor his forefathers: he shall disperse among them the plunder, spoil, and riches; and he shall devise his plans against the strongholds, but only for a time.
