Ezekiel:12:3-16
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Therefore ,
thou son of man ,
prepare thee stuff for removing ,
and remove by day in their sight ;
and thou shalt remove from thy place to another place in their sight :
it may be they will consider ,
though they be a rebellious house .
*
Then shalt thou bring forth thy stuff by day in their sight ,
as stuff for removing :
and thou shalt go forth at even in their sight ,
as they that go forth into captivity .
*
Dig thou through the wall in their sight ,
and carry out thereby .
*
In their sight shalt thou bear it upon thy shoulders ,
and carry it forth in the twilight :
thou shalt cover thy face ,
that thou see not the ground :
for I have set thee for a sign unto the house of Israel Yisra #
el #.
*
And I did so as I was commanded :
I brought forth my stuff by day ,
as stuff for captivity ,
and in the even I digged through the wall with mine hand ;
I brought it forth in the twilight ,
and I bare it upon my shoulder in their sight .
*
And in the morning came the word of the LORD unto me ,
saying ,
*
Son of man ,
hath not the house of Israel Yisra #
el #,
the rebellious house ,
said unto thee ,
What doest thou ?
*
Say thou unto them ,
Thus saith the Lord GOD ;
This burden concerneth the prince in Jerusalem ,
and all the house of Israel that are among them .
*
Say ,
I am your sign :
like as I have done ,
so shall it be done unto them :
they shall remove and go into captivity .
*
And the prince that is among them shall bear upon his shoulder in the twilight ,
and shall go forth :
they shall dig through the wall to carry out thereby :
he shall cover his face ,
that he see not the ground with his eyes .
*
My net also will I spread upon him ,
and he shall be taken in my snare :
and I will bring him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldeans ;
yet shall he not see it ,
though he shall die there .
*
And I will scatter toward every wind all that are about him to help him ,
and all his bands ;
and I will draw out the sword after them .
*
And they shall know that I am the LORD ,
when I shall scatter them among the nations ,
and disperse them in the countries .
*
But I will leave a few men of them from the sword ,
from the famine ra #
ab #,
and from the pestilence ;
that they may declare all their abominations among the heathen whither they come ;
and they shall know that I am the LORD .
