rsv Ezekiel:10-11

rsv@Ezekiel:10:1 @ Then I looked, and behold, on the firmament that was over the heads of the cherubim there appeared above them something like a sapphire, in form resembling a throne.

rsv@Ezekiel:10:2 @ And he said to the man clothed in linen, "Go in among the whirling wheels underneath the cherubim; fill your hands with burning coals from between the cherubim, and scatter them over the city." And he went in before my eyes.

rsv@Ezekiel:10:3 @ Now the cherubim were standing on the south side of the house, when the man went in; and a cloud filled the inner court.

rsv@Ezekiel:10:4 @ And the glory of the LORD went up from the cherubim to the threshold of the house; and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of the brightness of the glory of the LORD.

rsv@Ezekiel:10:5 @ And the sound of the wings of the cherubim was heard as far as the outer court, like the voice of God Almighty when he speaks.

rsv@Ezekiel:10:6 @ And when he commanded the man clothed in linen, "Take fire from between the whirling wheels, from between the cherubim," he went in and stood beside a wheel.

rsv@Ezekiel:10:7 @ And a cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubim to the fire that was between the cherubim, and took some of it, and put it into the hands of the man clothed in linen, who took it and went out.

rsv@Ezekiel:10:8 @ The cherubim appeared to have the form of a human hand under their wings.

rsv@Ezekiel:10:9 @ And I looked, and behold, there were four wheels beside the cherubim, one beside each cherub; and the appearance of the wheels was like sparkling chrysolite.

rsv@Ezekiel:10:10 @ And as for their appearance, the four had the same likeness, as if a wheel were within a wheel.

rsv@Ezekiel:10:11 @ When they went, they went in any of their four directions without turning as they went, but in whatever direction the front wheel faced the others followed without turning as they went.

rsv@Ezekiel:10:12 @ And their rims, and their spokes, and the wheels were full of eyes round about--the wheels that the four of them had.

rsv@Ezekiel:10:13 @ As for the wheels, they were called in my hearing the whirling wheels.

rsv@Ezekiel:10:14 @ And every one had four faces: the first face was the face of the 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.

rsv@Ezekiel:10:15 @ And the cherubim mounted up. These were the living creatures that I saw by the river Chebar.

rsv@Ezekiel:10:16 @ And when the cherubim went, the wheels went beside them; and when the cherubim lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the wheels did not turn from beside them.

rsv@Ezekiel:10:17 @ When they stood still, these stood still, and when they mounted up, these mounted up with them; for the spirit of the living creatures was in them.

rsv@Ezekiel:10:18 @ Then the glory of the LORD went forth from the threshold of the house, and stood over the cherubim.

rsv@Ezekiel:10:19 @ And the cherubim lifted up their wings and mounted up from the earth in my sight as they went forth, with the wheels beside them; and they stood at the door of the east gate of the house of the LORD; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them.

rsv@Ezekiel:10:20 @ These were the living creatures that I saw underneath the God of Israel by the river Chebar; and I knew that they were cherubim.

rsv@Ezekiel:10:21 @ Each had four faces, and each four wings, and underneath their wings the semblance of human hands.

rsv@Ezekiel:10:22 @ And as for the likeness of their faces, they were the very faces whose appearance I had seen by the river Chebar. They went every one straight forward.

rsv@Ezekiel:11:1 @ The Spirit lifted me up, and brought me to the east gate of the house of the LORD, which faces east. And behold, at the door of the gateway there were twenty-five men; and I saw among them Ja-azani'ah the son of Azzur, and Pelati'ah the son of Benai'ah, princes of the people.

rsv@Ezekiel:11:2 @ And he said to me, "Son of man, these are the men who devise iniquity and who give wicked counsel in this city;

rsv@Ezekiel:11:3 @ who say, `The time is not near to build houses; this city is the caldron, and we are the flesh.'

rsv@Ezekiel:11:4 @ Therefore prophesy against them, prophesy, O son of man."

rsv@Ezekiel:11:5 @ And the Spirit of the LORD fell upon me, and he said to me, "Say, Thus says the LORD: So you think, O house of Israel; for I know the things that come into your mind.

rsv@Ezekiel:11:6 @ You have multiplied your slain in this city, and have filled its streets with the slain.

rsv@Ezekiel:11:7 @ Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: Your slain whom you have laid in the midst of it, they are the flesh, and this city is the caldron; but you shall be brought forth out of the midst of it.

rsv@Ezekiel:11:8 @ You have feared the sword; and I will bring the sword upon you, says the Lord GOD.

rsv@Ezekiel:11:9 @ And I will bring you forth out of the midst of it, and give you into the hands of foreigners, and execute judgments upon you.

rsv@Ezekiel:11:10 @ You shall fall by the sword; I will judge you at the border of Israel; and you shall know that I am the LORD.

rsv@Ezekiel:11:11 @ This city shall not be your caldron, nor shall you be the flesh in the midst of it; I will judge you at the border of Israel;

rsv@Ezekiel:11:12 @ and you shall know that I am the LORD; for you have not walked in my statutes, nor executed my ordinances, but have acted according to the ordinances of the nations that are round about you."

rsv@Ezekiel:11:13 @ And it came to pass, while I was prophesying, that Pelati'ah the son of Benai'ah died. Then I fell 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?"

rsv@Ezekiel:11:14 @ And the word of the LORD came to me:

rsv@Ezekiel:11:15 @ "Son of man, your brethren, even your brethren, your fellow exiles, the whole house of Israel, all of them, are those of whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, `They have gone far from the LORD; to us this land is given for a possession.'

rsv@Ezekiel:11:16 @ Therefore say, `Thus says the Lord GOD: Though I removed them far off among the nations, and though I scattered them among the countries, yet I have been a sanctuary to them for a while in the countries where they have gone.'

rsv@Ezekiel:11:17 @ Therefore say, `Thus says the Lord GOD: I will gather you from the peoples, and assemble you out of the countries where you have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.'

rsv@Ezekiel:11:18 @ And when they come there, they will remove from it all its detestable things and all its abominations.

rsv@Ezekiel:11:19 @ And I will give them one heart, and put a new spirit within them; I will take the stony heart out of their flesh and give them a heart of flesh,

rsv@Ezekiel:11:20 @ that they may walk in my statutes and keep my ordinances and obey them; and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.

rsv@Ezekiel:11:21 @ But as for those whose heart goes after their detestable things and their abominations, I will requite their deeds upon their own heads, says the Lord GOD."

rsv@Ezekiel:11:22 @ Then the cherubim lifted up their wings, with the wheels beside them; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them.

rsv@Ezekiel:11:23 @ 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.

rsv@Ezekiel:11:24 @ And the Spirit lifted me up and brought me in the vision by the Spirit of God into Chalde'a, to the exiles. Then the vision that I had seen went up from me.

rsv@Ezekiel:11:25 @ And I told the exiles all the things that the LORD had showed me.

rsv@Ezekiel:12:1 @ The word of the LORD came to me:
