Ezekiel:24:1-14
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And the word of the Lord came to me ,
in the ninth year ,
in the tenth month ,
on the tenth day of the month ,
saying ,
*
Son of man ,
write for thyself daily from this day ,
on which the king of Babylon set himself against Jerusalem ,
even from this day .
*
And speak a parable to the provoking house ,
and thou shalt say to them ,
Thus saith the Lord ;
Set on the caldron ,
and pour water into it :
*
and put the pieces into it ,
every prime piece ,
the leg and shoulder taken off from the bones ,
*
which are taken from choice cattle ,
and burn the bones under them :
her bones are boiled and cooked in the midst of her .
*
Therefore thus saith the Lord ;
O bloody city ,
the caldron in which there is (
note :)
Gr .
blight ,
or ,
rust (:
note )
scum ,
and the scum has not gone out of ,
she has brought it forth piece by piece ,
no lot has fallen upon it .
*
For her blood is in the midst of her ;
I have set it upon a smooth rock :
I have not poured it out upon the earth ,
so that the earth should cover it ;
*
that my wrath should come up for complete vengeance to be taken :
I set her blood upon a smooth rock ,
so as not to cover it .
*
Therefore thus saith the Lord ,
I will also make the firebrand great ,
*
and I will multiply the wood ,
and kindle the fire ,
that the flesh may be consumed ,
and the liquor boiled away ;
*
and that it may stand upon the coals ,
that her brass may be (
note :)
Gr .
burnt and heated (:
note )
thoroughly heated ,
and be melted in the midst of her filthiness ,
and her scum may be consumed ,
*
and her abundant scum may not come forth of her .
*
Her scum shall become shameful ,
because thou didst defile thyself :
and what if thou shalt be purged no more until I have accomplished my wrath ?
*
I the Lord have spoken ;
and it shall come ,
and I will do it ;
I will not delay ,
neither will I have any mercy :
I will judge thee ,
saith the Lord ,
according to thy ways ,
and according to thy devices :
therefore will I judge thee according to thy bloodshed ,
and according to thy devices will I judge thee ,
thou unclean ,
notorious ,
and abundantly provoking one .
