lesserot@Isaiah:1:1 @ The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of ‘Uzziyahu, Jotham, Achaz, and Hezekiah, the kings of Judah.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:4 @ Woe! sinful nation, people laden with iniquity, seed of evil–doers, children that are corrupt: they have forsaken the Lord, they have incensed the Holy One of Israel, they are departed backward.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:6 @ From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and putrefying sores: they have not been closed, nor bound up, nor mollified with oil.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:8 @ And left is the daughter of Zion as a hut in a vineyard, as a lodge in a cucumber field, as a besieged city.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:9 @ Unless the Lord of hosts had left unto us a remnant ever so small, like Sodom should we have been, unto Gomorrah should we have been compared.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:10 @ Hear the word of the Lord, ye rulers of Sodom: give ear unto the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:11 @ For what serveth me the multitude of your sacrifices? saith the Lord: I am sated with the burnt–offerings of rams, and the fat of fatted beasts; and the blood of bullocks, and of sheep, and of he–goats, I do not desire.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:13 @ Continue no more to bring an oblation of deceit; incense of abomination is it unto me: new moon and sabbath, the calling of assemblies––I cannot bear misdeed with festive gathering.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:15 @ And when ye spread forth your hands, I will withdraw my eyes from you; yea, when ye make ever so many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:16 @ Wash yourselves, make yourselves clean; put away the evil of your deeds from before my eyes; cease to do evil;

lesserot@Isaiah:1:19 @ If ye be willing and obey, the best of the land shall ye eat;

lesserot@Isaiah:1:20 @ But if ye refuse and rebel, by the sword shall ye be devoured; for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:21 @ How is she become a harlot, the faithful town! she, that was full of justice; righteousness lodged therein; but now murderers.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:23 @ Thy princes are rebels, and companions of thieves; every one loveth brides, and runneth after rewards; to the fatherless they will not do justice, and the cause of the widow doth not come unto them.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:24 @ Therefore saith the Lord, the Eternal of hosts, the mighty One of Israel, Ah, I will take satisfaction on my adversaries, and be avenged on my enemies.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:26 @ And I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning; after that shalt thou be called, The city of righteousness, the town that is faithful.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:29 @ For people shall be ashamed because of the terebinths which ye had desired, and ye shall be put to the blush because of the gardens that ye had chosen.

lesserot@Isaiah:1:30 @ For ye shall be as a terebinth the leaves of which wither, and as a garden that hath no water.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:1 @ The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz foresaw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:2 @ And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord’s house shall be firmly established on the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and unto it shall flow all the nations.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:3 @ And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; that he may teach us of his ways, and we may walk in his paths; for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord out of Jerusalem.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:5 @ O house of Jacob, come ye, and let us walk in the light of the Lord.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:6 @ For thou hast abandoned thy people, the house of Jacob, because they are full of more than the east, and are soothsayers like the Philistines, and with the children of strangers they unite themselves.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:7 @ And full became their land of silver and gold, and there is no end to their treasures; and full became their land of horses, and there is no end to their chariots;

lesserot@Isaiah:2:8 @ And full became their land of idols; to the work of their own hands they bow themselves, to what their own fingers have made.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:9 @ And so is bent down the son of earth, and humbled the man; and thou wilt not forgive them.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:10 @ Enter into the rock, and hide thee in the dust, because of the dread of the Lord, and because of the glory of his majesty.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:11 @ The looks of human pride shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bent down: and exalted shall be the Lord alone on that day.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:12 @ For there is a day unto the Lord of hosts over every proud and lofty one; and over every exalted one, that he be brought low;

lesserot@Isaiah:2:13 @ And over all the cedars of the Lebanon, the high and exalted, and over all the oaks of Bashan;

lesserot@Isaiah:2:16 @ And over all the ships of Tharshish; and over all desirable palaces.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:17 @ And the pride of man shall be bent down, and the haughtiness of men shall be humbled: and exalted shall be the Lord alone on that day.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:19 @ And men shall enter into the caverns of rocks, and into the rifts of the earth, because of the dread of the Lord, and because of the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to terrify the earth.

lesserot@Isaiah:2:20 @ On that day shall a man cast away his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which have been made for him to worship, to the moles and to the bats;

lesserot@Isaiah:2:21 @ To enter into the clefts of the rocks, and into the hollows of the cliffs, because of the dread of the Lord, and because of the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to terrify the earth.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:1 @ For, behold, the Lord, the Eternal of hosts, doth remove from Jerusalem and from Judah stay and staff, every stay of bread, and every stay of water.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:2 @ The hero, and the man of war, the judge, and the prophet, and the prudent, and the ancient,

lesserot@Isaiah:3:3 @ The captain of fifty, and the honorable man, and the counsellor, and the skilful artificer, and the eloquent orator.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:6 @ When a man will seize hold on his brother in the house of his father, Thou hast a garment, thou shalt be our ruler, and let this ruin be under thy hand:

lesserot@Isaiah:3:7 @ He will swear on that day, saying, I will not be a chief; and in my house is neither bread nor clothing; you shall not appoint me a ruler of the people.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:8 @ For Jerusalem is sunk to decay, and Judah is fallen; because their tongue and their doings are against the Lord, to incense the eyes of his glory.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:9 @ The boldness of their face testifieth against them; and like Sodom they tell openly their sin, they conceal it not. Woe unto their soul! for they have prepared evil unto themselves.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:10 @ Say ye to the righteous, that he hath done well; for the fruit of their doings shall they eat.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:11 @ Woe unto the wicked who doeth evil; for the recompense of his hands shall be bestowed on him.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:12 @ My people! their oppressors are children, and women rule over them. O my people! thy leaders cause thee to err, and the direction of thy paths they corrupt.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:14 @ The Lord will enter into judgment with the ancients of his people, and their princes; but ye––ye have eaten up the vineyard; the plunder of the poor is in your houses.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:15 @ What mean ye that ye crush my people, and grind down the faces of the poor? saith the Lord the Eternal of hosts.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:16 @ And the Lord said, Forasmuch as the daughters of Zion are proud, and walk with stretched forth necks and casting about their eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet:

lesserot@Isaiah:3:17 @ Therefore will the Lord smite with leprosy the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and the Lord will lay open their nakedness.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:18 @ On that day will the Lord take away the beauty of their tinkling shoe–buckles, and the hair–nets, and the crescent–shaped ornaments,

lesserot@Isaiah:3:22 @ The changeable suits of apparel, and the mantles, and the shawls, and the pockets.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:24 @ And it shall come to pass, that instead of sweet smell there shall be corruption; and instead of a girdle a rope; and instead of curled hair baldness; and instead of a wide garment a girding of sackcloth, a mark of burning instead of beauty.

lesserot@Isaiah:3:26 @ And then shall her gates lament and mourn; and stript of all shall she sit upon the ground.

lesserot@Isaiah:4:1 @ And seven women shall take hold of one man on that day, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, take but away our reproach.

lesserot@Isaiah:4:2 @ On that day shall the sprout of the Lord be for ornament and for honor, and the fruit of the land for excellence and for glory for the escaped of Israel.

lesserot@Isaiah:4:4 @ When the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and shall have scoured away the blood–guiltiness of Jerusalem from her midst, by the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of destruction.

lesserot@Isaiah:4:5 @ And then will the Lord create upon every dwelling of mount Zion, and upon her places of assembly, a cloud and smoke by day, and the brightness of a flaming fire by night; for over all the glory shall be a covering.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:1 @ I will sing now for my beloved, the song of my dear one touching his vineyard. A vineyard had my beloved on a rich hill–top;

lesserot@Isaiah:5:2 @ And he fenced it in, and cleared it of stones, and planted it with the choicest vines, and built a tower in its midst, and also a winepress he hewed out therein: and he hoped that it should bring forth grapes, and it brought forth worthless fruit.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:3 @ And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem, and men of Judah, judge, I pray you, between me and my vineyard.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:5 @ And now I will let you know also what I will do to my vineyard: I will take away its hedge, and it shall be eaten off; I will break down its wall, and it shall be trodden down;

lesserot@Isaiah:5:7 @ For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah are the plant of his delight: and he hoped for justice, but behold injustice; for equity, but behold iniquity.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:8 @ Woe unto those that cause house to join on house, bring field near to field, till there is no more room, so that ye may be left alone as the inhabitants in the midst of the land!

lesserot@Isaiah:5:9 @ In my ears the Lord of hosts, Truly many houses shall become desolate, yea, great and beautiful ones without an inhabitant.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:10 @ Yea, ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath, and a chomer–seed shall yield an ephah.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:12 @ And there are harp and psaltery, tambourine and flute, and wine at their drinking–feasts; but the deeds of the Lord they regard not, and the works of his hands they behold not.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:13 @ Therefore are my people led into exile, for want of knowledge: and their honorable men suffer of famine, and their multitude are panting with thirst.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:15 @ And bent down shall be the son of earth, and humbled shall be the man, and the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled;

lesserot@Isaiah:5:16 @ And the Lord of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and the holy God shall be sanctified by righteousness.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:17 @ Then shall the sheep feed according to their wont, and the ruins of the fat ones shall sojourners eat.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:18 @ Woe unto those that draw iniquity with the cords of falsehood, and as with a wagon–rope, sinfulness;

lesserot@Isaiah:5:19 @ That say, Let him make speed, let him hasten his work, that we may see it: and let draw nigh and come the counsel of the Holy One of Israel, that we may know it!

lesserot@Isaiah:5:20 @ Woe unto those that say of the evil it is good, and of the good it is evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

lesserot@Isaiah:5:22 @ Woe unto those that are heroes to drink wine, and men of might to mingle strong drink;

lesserot@Isaiah:5:23 @ Who justify the wicked in lieu of a bribe, and who deprive the righteous of their right!

lesserot@Isaiah:5:24 @ Therefore as the tongue of the fire devoureth the stubble, and dry hay sinketh before the flame: so shall their root be as rotten things, and their blossom shall fly up as the dust; because they have despised the law of the Lord of hosts, and the word of the Holy One of Israel they have rejected.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:25 @ For this cause is kindled the anger of the Lord against his people, and he stretcheth forth his hand against them, and he smiteth them; and the mountains tremble, and their carcasses lie like sweepings in the midst of the streets: with all this his anger is not turned away, but still is his hand stretched out.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:26 @ And he will lift up an ensign to the nations from afar, and will call for one of them from the end of the earth; and, behold, with speed, swiftly, it cometh;

lesserot@Isaiah:5:27 @ There is none weary, nor stumbling among its men; it slumbereth not, it sleepeth not; not loosened is the girdle of its loins, not broken is the latchet of its shoes;

lesserot@Isaiah:5:28 @ Whose arrows are sharpened, and all whose bows are bent; its horses hoofs are hard like the flint, and its wheels like the whirlwind;

lesserot@Isaiah:5:29 @ It hath a roar like the lioness, it roareth like the young lions: yea, it growleth, and layeth hold of the prey, and carrieth it safely off, with none to deliver.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:30 @ And it will rage against them on that day like with the raging of the sea: and if one look unto the earth, behold, there is darkness, oppression, and the light is darkened through the darkness of its clouds.

lesserot@Isaiah:6:1 @ In the year of king ‘Uzziyahu’s death I saw the Lord sitting upon a high and exalted throne, and his train filled the temple.

lesserot@Isaiah:6:3 @ And one called unto the other, and said, Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory.

lesserot@Isaiah:6:4 @ And the posts of the threshold shook at the voice of those that called aloud, and the house was filled with smoke.

lesserot@Isaiah:6:5 @ And I said, Woe is me! for I am lost; because a man of unclean lips am I, and in the midst of a people of unclean lips do I dwell; for the King, the Lord of hosts have my eyes seen.

lesserot@Isaiah:6:6 @ Then flew unto me one of the seraphim, and in his hand was a live coal, with the tongs had he taken it from off the altar:

lesserot@Isaiah:6:8 @ And I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? And I said, Here am I: send me.

lesserot@Isaiah:6:10 @ Obdurate will remain the heart of this people, and their ears will be heavy, and their eyes will be shut: so that they will not see with their eyes, nor hear with their ears, nor their hearts be understanding, so that they be converted, and healing be granted them.

lesserot@Isaiah:6:12 @ And the Lord will have removed far away the men, and the depopulation be great in the midst of the land.

lesserot@Isaiah:6:13 @ And should a tenth part thereof yet remain, it will again be swept away: like the terebinth and the oak, which, when they cast their leaves, retain their stems, so remaineth the holy seed, its stem.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:1 @ And it came to pass in the days of Achaz the son of Jotham, the son of ‘Uzziyahu, the king of Judah, that Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekach the son of Remalyahu, the king of Israel, went up toward Jerusalem to war against it; but were not able to make an attack upon it.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:2 @ And it was told unto the house of David, saying, Syria is encamped with Ephraim; and his heart trembled, with the heart of his people, as the trees of the forest are shaken before the wind.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:3 @ And the Lord said unto Isaiah, Go forth now to meet Achaz, thou with Shear–yashub thy son, to the end of the aqueduct of the upper pool, on the highway of the washer’s field;

lesserot@Isaiah:7:4 @ And thou shalt say unto him, Take heed, and be quiet; fear not, and let thy heart not become faint because of these two stumps of smoking firebrands, before the fierce anger of Rezin with Syria, and of the son of Remalyahu.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:5 @ Forasmuch as Syria, Ephraim and the son of Remalyahu, have taken evil counsel against thee, saying,

lesserot@Isaiah:7:6 @ Let us go up against Judah, and besiege it, and let us make a breach therein for us, and set up as king in the midst of it the son of Tabeal:

lesserot@Isaiah:7:8 @ For the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin: and within sixty and five years shall Ephraim be broken, to be no more a people.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:9 @ And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remalyahu’s son. If ye will not believe, surely ye shall not have permanence.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:13 @ And he said, Hear ye now, O house of David! Is it too little for you to weary men, that ye will weary also my God?

lesserot@Isaiah:7:16 @ For before yet the child shall know to refuse the evil, and to choose the good, shall be forsaken the land, of the kings of which thou feelest dread.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:17 @ The Lord will bring over thee, and over thy people, and over thy father’s house, days that have not come, from the day that Ephraim withdrew from Judah,––the king of Assyria.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:18 @ And it shall come to pass on that day, that the Lord will call for the fly that is in the uttermost end of the streams of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:19 @ And they shall come, and shall encamp, all of them, in the desolate valleys, and in the clefts of the rocks, and upon all thorn–hedges, and upon all bushes.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:20 @ On the same day will the Lord shave with the razor that is hired, from among those on the other side of the river, with the king of Assyria, the head, and the hair of the feet: and also the beard shall it entirely remove.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:22 @ And it shall happen, that for the abundance of milk which they shall give he shall eat cream; for cream and honey shall eat every one that is left in the midst of the land.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:25 @ And all mountains that are worked with the mattock, there shall not come thither the fear of briers and thorns: and they shall serve for the pasture of oxen, and for the treading of sheep.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:2 @ And I was to summon for myself trustworthy witnesses, Uriyah the priest, and Zecharyahu the son of Yeberechyahu.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:4 @ For before yet the boy shall know to call, My father, and my mother, the wealth of Damascus and the spoil of Samaria shall be carried away before the king of Assyria.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:6 @ Forasmuch as this people despiseth the waters of Shiloach that flow softly, and rejoice in Rezin and Remalyahu’s son:

lesserot@Isaiah:8:7 @ Yea therefore behold, the Lord bringeth up over them the strong and many waters of the river,––the king of Assyria, and all his glory; and he shall come up over all his channels, and step over all his banks;

lesserot@Isaiah:8:8 @ And he shall penetrate into Judah, overflow and flood over, even to the neck shall he reach; and his outstretched wings shall fill the breadth of thy land, O ‘Immanu–el.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:9 @ Associate yourselves, O ye people, yet shall ye be broken in pieces; and give ear, all ye of the far portions of the earth: gird yourselves, yet shall ye be broken in pieces; gird yourselves, yet shall ye be broken in pieces.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:11 @ For thus said the Lord to me with the strength of prophecy, and warned me not to walk in the way of this people, saying,

lesserot@Isaiah:8:13 @ The Lord of hosts, him shall ye sanctify; and let him be your fear, and let him be your terror.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:14 @ And he will be for a sanctuary; but also for a stone of stumbling and for a rock to fall over unto both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:17 @ And I will wait for the Lord, that hideth his face from the house of Jacob, and I will hope for him.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:18 @ Behold, I and the children whom the Lord hath given me are for signs and for tokens in Israel, from the Lord of hosts who dwelleth on mount Zion.

lesserot@Isaiah:8:19 @ And when they shall say unto you, "Inquire of those that have familiar spirits, and of the wizards, that whisper, and that mutter:" should not a people inquire of their God? in behalf of the living of the dead?

lesserot@Isaiah:8:22 @ And they will look unto the earth; and behold there are trouble and darkness, dimness of oppression, and they shall be scattered into obscurity.

lesserot@Isaiah:10:1 @ Woe unto those that decree decrees of unrighteousness, and the writers who write down wrongful things;

lesserot@Isaiah:10:2 @ To turn aside from judgment the needy, and to rob the just due of the poor of my people, that widows may be their prey, and they may plunder the fatherless!

lesserot@Isaiah:10:3 @ And what will ye do on the day of the visitation, and at the desolation which will come from afar? to whom will ye flee for help? and where will ye leave your glory?

lesserot@Isaiah:10:5 @ Woe over Asshur, the rod of my anger; and a staff is in their hand my indignation.

lesserot@Isaiah:10:6 @ Against a hypocritical nation will I send him, and against the people of my fury will I give him a charge, to take the spoil, and to carry off the prey, and to render them trodden down like the mire of the streets.

lesserot@Isaiah:10:7 @ But he deemeth it not so, and his heart doth not think so; but to destroy is in his heart, and to cut off nations not a few.

lesserot@Isaiah:10:10 @ As my hand hath reached the kingdoms of the idols, whose graven images exceeded in number those of Jerusalem and of Samaria:

lesserot@Isaiah:10:12 @ Wherefore shall it come to pass, that when the Lord hath completed all his work on mount Zion and in Jerusalem, I will punish the fruit of the haughtiness of the king of Asshur, and the vain–glory of his proud looks.

lesserot@Isaiah:10:13 @ For he hath said, "By the strength of my hand have I done it, and by my wisdom, for I have intelligence; and I have removed the boundaries of nations, and their laid–up treasures have I plundered, and brought down low those that were powerfully seated.

lesserot@Isaiah:10:14 @ And my hand hath reached, as a bird’s nest, the wealth of the people: and as one gathereth up eggs that are forsaken, have I myself gathered up all the earth: and there was not one that moved the wing, or opened the mouth, or chirped."

lesserot@Isaiah:10:16 @ Therefore will the Lord, the Eternal of hosts, send forth among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory shall be kindled a burning like the burning of a fire.

lesserot@Isaiah:10:17 @ And the light of Israel shall become a fire, and his Holy One a flame; and it shall burn and devour his thorns and his briers on one day.

lesserot@Isaiah:10:18 @ And the glory of his forest, and of his fruitful field, both soul and body, will he destroy: and he shall be as eaten to powder by the worms.

lesserot@Isaiah:10:19 @ And the rest of the trees of his forest shall be few in number, so that a boy may write them down.

lesserot@Isaiah:10:20 @ And it shall come to pass on that day, that the remnant of Israel, and such as are escaped of the house of Jacob, shall not farther lean for support upon him that smiteth them; but they shall lean upon the Lord, the Holy one of Israel, in truth.

lesserot@Isaiah:10:21 @ The remnant shall return, the remnant of Jacob, unto the mighty God.

lesserot@Isaiah:10:22 @ For though thy people Israel should be as the sand of the sea, a remnant of them shall return: destruction is decreed, it overfloweth with righteousness.

lesserot@Isaiah:10:23 @ For it is completed and decreed: the Lord, the Eternal of hosts will do it in the midst of all the land.

lesserot@Isaiah:10:24 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord the Eternal of hosts, Be not afraid, O my people that dwellest in Zion, of Asshur, who will smite thee with the rod, and lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt.

lesserot@Isaiah:10:26 @ And the Lord shall lift up a scourge over him like the smiting of Midian at the rock of ‘Oreb: and as his staff was lifted over the sea, so will he carry him off after the manner of Egypt.

lesserot@Isaiah:10:27 @ And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be removed from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be broken because of the fatness.

lesserot@Isaiah:10:29 @ They go through the pass; they take up their lodging at Geba’; Ramah trembleth; Gib’ah of Saul fleeth.

lesserot@Isaiah:10:30 @ Let thy voice resound, O daughter of Gallim; listen Layshah; O poor ‘Anathoth!

lesserot@Isaiah:10:31 @ Madmenah is in motion; the inhabitants of Gebim are assembled to flee.

lesserot@Isaiah:10:32 @ As yet today will he remain at Nob: then will he swing his hand against the mount of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.

lesserot@Isaiah:10:33 @ Behold, the Lord, the Eternal of hosts, will lop off the fruitful bough with terrific might: and those of towering growth shall be hewn down, and the high shall be laid low.

lesserot@Isaiah:10:34 @ And he will cut down the thickets of the forests with iron, and the Lebanon shall fall by a mighty one.

lesserot@Isaiah:11:1 @ And there shall come forth a shoot out of the stem of Jesse, and a sprout shall spring out of his roots.

lesserot@Isaiah:11:2 @ And there shall rest upon him the spirit of the Lord, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord;

lesserot@Isaiah:11:3 @ And he shall be animated by the fear of the Lord; and not after the sight of his eyes shall he judge, and not after the hearing of his ears shall he decide;

lesserot@Isaiah:11:4 @ But he shall judge with righteousness the poor, and decide with equity for the suffering ones of the earth; and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.

lesserot@Isaiah:11:5 @ And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his hips.

lesserot@Isaiah:11:8 @ And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and on the basilisk’s den shall the weaned child stretch out his hand.

lesserot@Isaiah:11:9 @ They shall not do hurt nor destroy on all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea.

lesserot@Isaiah:11:10 @ And it shall happen on that day, that the root of Jesse, who shall stand as an ensign of the people, to him shall nations inquire: and his resting–place shall be glorious.

lesserot@Isaiah:11:11 @ And it shall happen on that day, that the Lord will put forth his hand again the second time to acquire the remnant of his people, which shall remain, from Asshur and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from ‘Elam, and from Shin’ar, and from Chamath, and from the islands of the sea.

lesserot@Isaiah:11:12 @ And he will lift up an ensign unto the nations, and will assemble the outcasts of Israel; and the dispersed of Judah will he collect together from the four corners of the earth.

lesserot@Isaiah:11:13 @ And then shall depart the envy of Ephraim, and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not assail Ephraim.

lesserot@Isaiah:11:14 @ But they shall fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines toward the west; together shall they spoil the children of the east: upon Edom and Moab shall they lay their hands; and the children of ‘Ammon shall obey them.

lesserot@Isaiah:11:15 @ And the Lord will destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea; and swing his hand over the river with his mighty wind, and will smite it into seven streams, and render it passable with shoes.

lesserot@Isaiah:11:16 @ And there shall be a highway for the remnant of his people, which shall remain from Asshur, like as it was to Israel on the day that they came up out of the land of Egypt.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:29 @ Because of thy raging against me, and thy tumult, that is come up into my ears, will I put my hook in thy nose, and my bridle between thy lips, and I will cause thee to turn back on the way by which thou camest.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:12 @ My dwelling is broken down, and is removed from me as a shepherd’s tent: I have cut off, like a weaver, my life; with pining sickness will he snatch me away: from day until night wilt thou make an end of me.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:13 @ I waited till morning, as a lion, so would he break all my bones: from day until night wilt thou make an end of me.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:15 @ What shall I speak? he hath promised it unto me, and he hath also accomplished it; I will make pilgrimages all my years because of the bitterness of my soul.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:16 @ O Lord, by these will live, and in all these is the life of my spirit: so wilt thou give me health, and cause me to live.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:17 @ Behold, for peace I had great bitterness; but thou hast, in loving my soul, delivered it from the pit of corruption; for thou hast cast behind thy back all my sins.

lesserot@Isaiah:39:2 @ And Hezekiah was rejoiced on their account, and showed them his treasure–house, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious oil, and the whole of his armor–house, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing that Hezekiah showed them not, in his house, and in all his dominion.

lesserot@Isaiah:39:3 @ Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him, What did these men say? and whence did they come unto thee? And Hezekiah said, From a far–off country are they come unto me, from Babylon.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:22 @ But it is a people robbed and spoiled; they are all of them ensnared in holes, and in prison–houses are they hidden: they are become for a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore.

lesserot@Isaiah:42:25 @ Therefore hath he poured out over him the fury of his anger, and the strength of battle: and it blazed all round about him, yet he regarded it not; and it burnt on him, yet he laid it not to heart.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:23 @ Thou hast not brought unto me the lamb of thy burnt–offerings; and with thy sacrifices hast thou not honored me: I have not troubled thee with meat–offerings, nor wearied thee with frankincense.

lesserot@Isaiah:43:24 @ Thou hast not bought for me sweet cane, and with the fat of thy sacrifices hast thou not satisfied me; but thou hast troubled me with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thy iniquities.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:14 @ He felleth for himself cedars, and taketh cypress and oak, and he chooseth for himself the strongest among the trees of the forest; he planteth an ash, and the rain causeth it to grow.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:15 @ Then doth it serve a man for burning; and he taketh thereof, and warmeth himself; he also heateth therewith, and baketh bread; he also worketh out a god, and boweth himself; he maketh of it an image, and kneeleth down thereto.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:16 @ The half thereof hath he burnt in fire; with the half thereof will he eat flesh; he will roast food, and be satisfied; he will also warm himself, and say, Aha, I am warm, I have felt the fire:

lesserot@Isaiah:44:17 @ And the residue thereof hath he made into a god, his graven image; he kneeleth down unto it, and boweth himself, and prayeth unto it, and saith, Deliver me; for my god art thou.

lesserot@Isaiah:44:19 @ And he layeth it not to heart, and hath no knowledge, no understanding, to say, The half thereof have I burnt in fire; and I have also baked upon its coals bread; I will roast flesh, and eat it: and shall I make of its residue an abomination, before a block of wood shall I kneel?

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:22 @ For I spoke not with your fathers, and I commanded them not on the day of my bringing them out of the land of Egypt, concerning burnt–offering or sacrifice;

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:24 @ Yet they hearkened not, and inclined not their ear; but they walked in the counsels, in the stubbornness of their evil heart; and they went backward, and not forward:

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:25 @ Since the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt until this day; and I sent unto you all my servants the prophets, sending them daily in the morning early;

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:28 @ Then shalt thou say unto them, This is the nation that hearken not to the voice of the Lord their God, and accept not correction; lost is the truth, and is obliterated from their mouth.

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:29 @ Cut off thy flowing hair, and cast it away, and take up on mountain–tops a lamentation; for rejected hath the Lord and forsaken the generation of his wrath.

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:30 @ For the children of Judah have done what is evil in my eyes, saith the Lord: they have set up their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to pollute it.

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:31 @ And they have built the high–places of Thophet, which is in the valley of Ben–hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire; which I had not commanded, and which never came into my mind.

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:32 @ Therefore, behold days are coming, saith the Lord, that it shall not be called any more Thophet, or The valley of Ben–hinnom, but The valley of slaughter: and they shall bury in Thophet, for want of room.

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:33 @ And the carcasses of this people shall become food unto the fowls of the heavens, and unto the beasts of the earth, with none to chase them away.

lesserot@Jeremiah:7:34 @ And I will cause to cease from the cities of Judah, and from the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of gladness, and the voice of joy, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride; for a desert shall the land become.

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:1 @ At that time, saith the Lord, shall they bring out the bones of the kings of Judah, and the bones of his princes, and the bones of the priests, and the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, out of their graves.

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:2 @ And they shall spread them out before the sun, and the moon, and all the host of heaven, which they have loved, and which they have served, and after which they have walked, and which they have sought, and to which they have prostrated themselves: they shall not be gathered up, and they shall not be buried; dung upon the face of the ground shall they become.

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:3 @ And death shall be preferable to life, for all the residue of those that are left of this evil family, who are left in all the places whither I shall have driven them, saith the Lord of hosts.

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:6 @ I listened and heard, but they would not speak aright; no man repented him of his wickedness, saying, What have I done? every one turned again to his course, as the impetuous horse in the battle.

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:7 @ Yea, the stork in the heavens knoweth her appointed times; and the turtle, and the swallow, atad the crane observe the time of their coming home; but my people know not the ordinance of the Lord.

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:8 @ How can ye say, We are wise, and the law of the Lord is with us? Truly, behold in vain wrought the pen, in vain the writers.

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:9 @ The wise men are ashamed, they are discouraged and caught, lo, the word of the Lord have they rejected; and what wisdom have they?

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:11 @ And they heal the breach of the daughter of my people very lightly, saying, Peace, peace: when there is no peace.

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:12 @ They should have been ashamed, because they had committed abomination; but they neither felt the least shame, nor did they know how to blush: therefore shall they fall among those that fall; at the time of their punishment shall they stumble, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:13 @ I will surely make an end of them, saith the Lord: no grapes on the vine, and no figs on the fig–tree, and the leaf shall wither; and the things that I have given them shall pass away from them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:15 @ We hoped for peace, but no happiness is here; for a time of cure, and behold here is terror."

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:16 @ From Dan was heard the snorting of his horses; at the sound of the neighing of his war–steeds trembleth the whole land: and they are come, and devour the land, and all that filleth it; the city, and those that dwell therein.

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:19 @ Behold the voice of the complaint of the daughter of my people out of a far–off land: "Is the Lord not in Zion? is her king no more in her?" "Why have they provoked me to anger with their graven images, and with the vanities of the stranger?"

lesserot@Jeremiah:8:21 @ Because of the breach of the daughter of my people am I broken: I am grieved; astonishment hath taken fast hold on me.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:2 @ Thus hath said the Lord, Do not habituate yourselves on the way of the nations, and at the signs of the heavens be ye not dismayed; although the nations should be dismayed at them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:3 @ For the statutes of these people concern what is vanity; for it is but a tree which a man hath cut out of a forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:5 @ As a wrought–out palm–like column are they, and cannot speak; they must needs be borne, because they cannot step along. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do any harm, so also to do any good is not in them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:7 @ Who would not fear thee, O King of the nations? for to thee doth it appertain; because among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their kingdoms, there is none like unto thee.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:8 @ But at once shall they be shown to be brutish and foolish: it is a doctrine of vanities, it concerneth but wood.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:9 @ The beaten out silver is brought from Tharshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the workman, and of the hands of the goldsmith: blue and purple is their clothing; the work of skilful men are they all.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:13 @ At the sound when he giveth a multitude of waters in the heavens, and causeth clouds to ascend from the ends of the earth; when he maketh lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures:

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:14 @ Then standeth every man as brutish without knowledge; ashamed is every goldsmith because of the graven image; for falsehood is his molten work, and there is no breath therein.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:15 @ They are vanity, the work of deception; in the time of their punishment shall they vanish.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:16 @ Not like these is the portion of Jacob; for he is the former of all things; and Israel is the tribe of his inheritance: The Lord of hosts is his name.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:17 @ Gather up thy wares from the ground, O inhabitress of the beleaguered city.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:18 @ For thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I will cast forth as with a sling the inhabitants of the land at this time, and I will enclose them, in order that they may find them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:22 @ Behold, the noise of the report is come, and a great commotion out of the north country, to render the cities of Judah desolate, a dwelling for monsters.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:23 @ I know, O Lord, that the way of man is not in his own power: it is not in man that passeth away to direct his own steps.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:2 @ Hear ye the words of this covenant, and speak unto the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem;

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:3 @ And say thou unto them, Thus hath said the Lord God of Israel, Cursed be the man that hearkeneth not to the words of this covenant,

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:4 @ Which I commanded your fathers on the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the iron furnace, saying, Hearken to my voice, and do the same, in accordance with all which I may command you; and so shall ye be to me for a people, and I will be to you for a God;

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:6 @ Then said the Lord unto me, Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, Hear ye the words of this covenant, and do them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:7 @ For I earnestly warned your fathers on the day that I brought them up out of the land of Egypt even until this day, sending out early and warning, saying, Hearken to my voice;

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:8 @ Yet they hearkened not, and inclined not their ear, but walked every one in the stubbornness of their evil heart: therefore did I bring over them all the words of this covenant, which I commanded them to do; but which they did not.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:9 @ And the Lord said unto me, A conspiracy hath been found among the men of Judah, and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:10 @ They are returned again to the iniquities of their earlier forefathers, who had refused to hearken to my words; and they themselves are gone after other gods to serve them: the house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken my covenant which I made with their fathers.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:12 @ Then let the cities of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem go, and cry unto the gods unto whom they offer incense; but they shall not save them in the least in the time of their distress.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:13 @ For equal to the number of thy cities were thy gods, O Judah; and equal to the number of the streets of Jerusalem have ye set up altars to the disgraceful idol, altars, to burn incense unto Ba’al.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:14 @ But thou––thou must not pray in behalf of this people, neither lift up in their behalf entreaty or prayer; for I will not hear at the time that they call unto me, because of their distress.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:15 @ What hath my beloved to do in my house, while she executeth the evil counsel of so many? Yea, the holy flesh passeth away from thee; for even with thy wickedness, thou rejoicest still.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:16 @ An ever–green olive–tree, beautiful in fruit and form, did the Lord call thy name: with the noise of a great tumult hath he kindled fire around it, and they break off its branches.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:17 @ And the Lord of hosts, that planted thee, hath decreed evil against thee; on account of the wickedness of the house of Israel and of the house of Judah, which they have done against themselves, to provoke me to anger in offering incense unto Ba’al.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:18 @ And the Lord hath given me knowledge of it, and I know it: then didst thou let me see their doings.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:19 @ But I was like a sheep or an ox that is brought to the slaughter; and I knew not that they had devised devices against me, "Let us destroy the tree with its fruit, and let us cut him off from the land of the living, that his name may not be remembered any more."

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:20 @ But, O Lord of hosts, that judgest righteously, that triest the reins and the heart, let me see thy vengeance on them; for unto thee have I entrusted my cause.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:21 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord concerning the men of ‘Anathoth, that seek thy life, saying, "Thou shalt not prophesy in the name of the Lord, that thou mayest not die by our hand:"

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:22 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Behold, I will inflict punishment on them: the young men shall die by the sword; their sons and their daughters shall die by the famine;

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:23 @ And no remnant shall remain of them; for I will bring evil upon the men of ‘Anathoth, in the year of their punishment.

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:1 @ righteous art thou, O Lord, that I could plead with thee; yet must I speak of justice with thee: Wherefore is the way of the wicked happy? do all those prosper that deal treacherously?

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:3 @ But thou, O Lord, knowest me; thou seest me, and probest my heart toward thee; set them apart like sheep for the slaughter, and destine them for the day of slaying.

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:4 @ How long shall the land mourn, and the herb of all the field wither? Because of the wickedness of those that dwell therein are wholly removed the beasts and the birds; because they said, He will not see our last end.

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:5 @ If thou hast run with the footmen, and they have wearied thee, how then canst thou contend with the horses? and if in the land of peace, thou trustedst, how then wilt thou do in the swelling of the Jordan?

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:6 @ For even thy brethren, and the house of thy father, even they have dealt treacherously with thee; yea, even they have called forth a crowd of men after thee: believe them not, though they speak kindly unto thee.

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:7 @ I have forsaken my house, I have abandoned my heritage; I have given up the most dearly beloved of my soul into the hand of her enemies.

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:9 @ Is my heritage become unto me as a bird of prey stained with blood? so that the birds of prey are all around it? Come ye, assemble all the beasts of the field, bring them hither to devour.

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:12 @ Over all the mountain–peaks in the wilderness did the destroyers come; for the sword of the Lord devoureth from the one end of the land even to the other end of the land: there is no peace to any flesh.

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:13 @ They have sown wheat, but they reap thorns; they have put themselves to pain have no profit; be therefore ashamed of your products, because of the fierce anger of the Lord.

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:14 @ Thus hath said the Lord against all my bad neighbors, that touch the inheritance which I have caused my people Israel to inherit, Behold, I will pluck them out of their land, and the house of Judah will I pluck out from the midst of them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:16 @ And it shall come to pass, if they will truly learn the ways of my people, to swear by my name, As the Lord liveth; as they had taught my people to swear by Ba’al: that they shall then be built up in the midst of my people.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:2 @ So I bought the girdle, according to the word of the Lord, and put it around my loins.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:3 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me the second time, saying,

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:4 @ Take the girdle that thou hast bought, which is around thy loins; and arise, go to the Euphrates, and hide it there in a cleft of the rock.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:6 @ And it came to pass at the end of many days, that the Lord said unto me, Arise, go to the Euphrates, and take from there the girdle, which I commanded thee to hide there.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:8 @ Then came the word of the Lord unto me, saying,

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:9 @ Thus hath said the Lord, After this manner will I destroy the pride of Judah, and the pride of Jerusalem, which is great.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:10 @ And this bad people, who refuse to hearken to my words, who walk in the stubbornness of their heart, and have followed other gods, to serve them, and to bow down to them, shall even be as this girdle which is useful for nothing.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:11 @ For as the girdle cleaveth to the loins of a man, so had I caused to cleave unto me all the house of Israel and all the house of Judah, saith the Lord,––to become unto me a people, and for a name, and for praise, and for honor; but they would not hear.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:12 @ Therefore shalt thou say unto them this word, Thus hath said the Lord the God of Israel, Every bottle shall be filled with wine: and when they will say unto thee, Do we not know full well that every bottle shall be filled with wine?

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:13 @ Then shalt thou say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I will fill all the inhabitants of this land, even the kings that sit after David upon his throne, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, with drunkenness.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:16 @ Give unto the Lord your God glory, before he cause darkness, and before your feet strike upon the mountains of twilight, and, while ye look for light, he turn it into the shadow of death, and change it into gross darkness.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:17 @ But if ye will not hear it, my soul shall weep in secret places because of pride; and my eye shall weep sorely, and run down with tears, because the flock of the Lord is driven away captive.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:18 @ Say unto the king and to the queen–mother, Sit down very lowly; for sunk down are your head–attires, the crown of your ornament.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:19 @ The cities of the south are shut up, and there is no one to open them: Judah is carried away into exile altogether, it is carried into exile completely.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:22 @ And if thou wilt say in thy heart, Wherefore come these things upon me? For the greatness of thy iniquity are thy skirts laid open, thy heels are made bare violently.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:24 @ Therefore will I scatter them as the stubble that passeth away before the wind of the wilderness.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:25 @ This is thy lot, the portion of thy measures from me, saith the Lord; because thou hast forgotten me, and trusted in falsehood.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:27 @ Thy adulteries and thy loud shoutings, the lewdness of thy incest, thy abominations on the hills in the fields have I seen. Woe unto thee, O Jerusalem! thou wilt not be made clean after ever so long a time.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:1 @ The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah concerning the drought.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:2 @ Judah mourneth, and her gates languish; they lie grieved on the ground; and the distressed cry of Jerusalem ascendeth upward.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:4 @ Because of the ground which is cracked open, since there hath been no rain in the land, are the ploughmen ashamed, they cover their head.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:7 @ If our iniquities testify against us, O Lord, do thou act for the sake of thy name; for our backslidings are many; against thee have we sinned.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:8 @ O thou hope of Israel, his saviour in time of trouble, why shouldst thou be as a stranger in the land, and as a wayfarer that turneth aside to lodge for a night?

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:9 @ Why shouldst thou be as a man that is surprised, as a mighty man that cannot save? yet thou art in the midst of us, O Lord, and we are called by thy name: abandon us not.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:11 @ Then said the Lord unto me, Pray not in behalf of this people for their good.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:12 @ When they fast, I will not hear their entreaty: and when they offer burnt–offering and meat–offering, I will not receive them in favor; but by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence, will I make an end of them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:14 @ Then said the Lord unto me, Falsehood do the prophets prophesy in my name; I have not sent them, neither have I commanded them, neither have I spoken unto them: a vision of falsehood, and divination, and idolatrous folly, and the deceit of their heart do they prophesy unto you.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:16 @ And the people to whom they prophesy shall lie cast down in the streets of Jerusalem by means of the famine and the sword; and they shall have none to bury them, them, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters; for I will pour out their wickedness over them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:17 @ But thou shalt say unto them this word. My eyes shall run down with tears night and day, and they shall not cease; for with a great breach is the virgin–daughter of my people broken, with a very painful blow.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:19 @ Hast thou entirely rejected Judah? or hath thy soul loathing on Zion? why hast thou smitten us, so that there is no healing for us? we hoped for peace, and there is no good; and for the time of healing, and behold, there is terror!

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:20 @ We know, O Lord, our wickedness, the iniquity of our fathers; for we have sinned against thee.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:21 @ Do not cast us off, for the sake of thy name, do not disgrace the throne of thy glory: remember, break not thy covenant with us.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:22 @ Are there any among the vanities of the nations those that bestow rain? or can the heavens give forth showers? Behold, thou art this, O Lord our God, and we will hope in thee; for thou hast done all these things.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:1 @ And the Lord said unto me, If Moses and Samuel were to stand before me, my favor would not be toward this people: send them away out of my sight, that they may go forth.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:3 @ And I will appoint over them four species, saith the Lord: The sword to slay, and the dogs to drag away, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the earth, to devour and to destroy.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:4 @ And I will cause them to become a horror unto all the kingdoms of the earth, on account of Menasseh the son of Hezekiah the king of Judah, because of what he did in Jerusalem.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:7 @ And I winnow them with a fan in the gates of the land: I make childless, I annihilate my people, from their ways they have not turned away.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:8 @ Their widows are more numerous before me than the sand of the seas: I bring unto them, over the mothers of the young men, a waster at noonday; I cause to fall upon her suddenly the enemy with terrors.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:10 @ Woe is me, my mother, that thou hast born me, a man of contention and a man of strife to the whole land! I have not lent, nor have men lent to me: every one of them curseth me.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:11 @ The Lord said, Truly I will release thee for good; truly I will cause the enemy to meet thee in the time of distress and in the time of affliction.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:15 @ Thou well knowest it, O Lord! remember me and think of me, and avenge me on my persecutors; not according to thy long–suffering act thou for me: know, that for thy sake I have borne shame.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:16 @ When thy words were made manifest to me, then I greedily received them; and thy word became unto me the gladness and joy of my heart; for thy name is called upon me, O Lord of hosts.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:17 @ I sat not in the assembly of the mirthful, and was rejoiced; because of thy inspiration I sat solitary; for thou hadst filled me with indignation.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:21 @ And I will deliver thee out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem thee out of the grasp of the tyrants.

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:5 @ For thus hath said the Lord, Enter not into the house of mourning, neither go to lament nor to condole with them; for I have taken away my peace from this people, saith the Lord, yea, kindness and mercy.

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:7 @ Nor shall they break bread for them at their mourning, to comfort them for the dead; nor shall they give them to drink the cup of consolation for their father and for their mother.

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:8 @ And into the house of feasting shalt thou not enter, to sit with them, to eat and to drink.

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:9 @ For thus hath said the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Behold, I will cause to cease out of this place before your eyes, and in your days, the voice of gladness, and the voice of joy, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride.

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:12 @ And ye act worse than your fathers; for, behold, ye walk every one after the stubbornness of his evil heart, so as not to hearken unto me;

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:13 @ Therefore will I hurl you out of this land into the land of which ye had no knowledge, neither ye nor your fathers; and ye will serve there other gods by day and by night; so that I will not grant you any favor.

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:14 @ Therefore, behold, days are coming, saith the Lord, when it shall not he said any more, As the Lord liveth, who hath brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:15 @ But, As the Lord liveth, who hath brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the countries whither he had driven them: and I will cause them to return unto their land which I have given unto their fathers.

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:16 @ Behold, I will send for many fishermen, saith the Lord, and they shall fish them; and after that will I send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the clefts of the rocks.

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:18 @ And will I pay them at the first their two–fold iniquity and their sin; because they have defiled my land, filling my heritage with the carcasses of their detestable and abominable idols.

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:19 @ O Lord, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge on the day of trouble, unto thee shall nations come from the ends of the earth, and say, Nothing but falsehood had our fathers inherited, vanity, wherein there is no profit.

lesserot@Jeremiah:17:1 @ The sin of Judah is written down with a pen of iron, with the point of a diamond: it is engraved upon the table of their heart, and on the horns of your altars.

lesserot@Jeremiah:17:2 @ Like their remembrance of their children, so are their altars and their groves by green tree upon the high hills.

lesserot@Jeremiah:18:21 @ Therefore give up their children to the famine, and let their life ebb out by means of the sword; and let their wives be bereaved of their children, and widows; and let their men be slain by death; their young men smitten by the sword in the battle.

lesserot@Jeremiah:18:23 @ Yet thou, Lord, knowest well all their counsel against me to death: forgive not their iniquity, and let their sin not be blotted out from before thee; but let them be brought to stumbling before thee; in the time of thy anger deal thus with them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:19:8 @ And I will render this city desolate, and an derision: every one that passeth thereby shall be astonished and hiss because of all its plagues.

lesserot@Jeremiah:19:9 @ And I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters, and they shall eat every one the flesh of his associate, in the siege and straitness, wherewith their enemies, and those that seek their life, shall distress them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:19:11 @ And thou shalt say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, In this manner will I break this people and this city, as one breaketh a potter’s vessel, that cannot be restored again; and in Thopheth shall they bury, for want of room to bury.

lesserot@Jeremiah:20:8 @ For as often as I speak must I cry out, violence and wasting must I proclaim; because the word of the Lord is become unto me a disgrace, and a derision, all the time.

lesserot@Jeremiah:20:9 @ And I thought, I will not make mention of him, and I will not speak any more in his name. But it became in my heart as a burning fire enclosed within my bones, and I was weary with enduring, and I could not overcome it.

lesserot@Jeremiah:20:10 @ For I heard the defaming of many, angry assemblies on every side, "Tell, and we will tell of him."

lesserot@Jeremiah:23:13 @ And on the prophets of Samaria have I seen absurdity: they prophesied by Ba’al, and misled my people Israel.

lesserot@Jeremiah:23:14 @ But on the prophets of Jerusalem have I seen a horrible thing; they commit adultery, and walk in falsehood; and they strengthen the hands of evil–doers, so that not one of these doth return from his wickedness: they are become unto me all of them as Sodom, and its inhabitants as Gomorrah.

lesserot@Jeremiah:23:15 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord of hosts concerning the prophets, Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink poison–water; for from the prophets of Jerusalem is hypocrisy gone forth over all the land.

lesserot@Jeremiah:34:18 @ And I will give up the men that have transgressed my covenant, who have not fulfilled the words of the covenant which they had made before me, at the calf which they cut in twain, and between the parts whereof they passed,

lesserot@Jeremiah:37:14 @ But Jeremiah said, It is false; I am not running away to the Chaldeans. But he listened not to him; and Yiriyah seized hold of Jeremiah, and brought him to the princes.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:1 @ And Shephatyah the son of Matthan, and Gedalyahu the son of Pashchur, and Juchal the son of Shelemyahu, and Pashchur the son of Malkiyah, heard the words that Jeremiah was speaking unto all the people, saying,

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:18 @ But if thou wilt not go forth to the princes of the king of Babylon, then shall this city be given up into the hand of the Chaldeans, and they shall burn it with fire, and thou thyself shalt not escape out of their hand.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:23 @ And all thy wives and thy children shall they bring out to the Chaldeans; and thou thyself shalt not escape out of their hand; for by the hand of the king of Babylon shalt thou be caught; and this city wilt thou cause to be burnt with fire.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:24 @ Then said Zedekiah unto Jeremiah, Let no man know of these words, that thou mayest not die.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:26 @ Then shalt thou say unto them, I presented my humble supplication before the king, that he would not send me back to the house of Jonathan, to die there.

lesserot@Jeremiah:39:5 @ But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after them, and they overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho; and they took him, and brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Chamath: and he called him to account.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:2 @ On the fifth day of the month, which was the fifth year of the exile of king Jehoyachin,

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:3 @ Came the word of the Lord expressly unto Ezekiel the son of Buzi, the priest, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Kebar; and there came upon him there the inspiration of the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:4 @ And I saw, and behold, a storm–wind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a flaming fire, and a brightness was on it round about; and out of the midst of it was like the glitter of amber, out of the midst of the fire.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:5 @ And out of the midst thereof the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance: They had the likeness of a man.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:6 @ And every one had four faces, and every one of them had four wings.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:7 @ And their feet were straight feet; and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf’s foot: and they sparkled like the glitter of burnished copper.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:8 @ And hands of man from beneath their wings on their four sides: and their faces and their wings on all these four.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:9 @ Their wings were joined one to the other: they turned not about in their going; they went every one in the direction of one of their faces.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:10 @ And the likeness of their faces was the face of a man; and the face of a lion, on the right side for all four of them; and the face of an ox on the left side for all four of them; and the face of an eagle for all four of them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:12 @ And they went every one in the direction of one of his faces: whither the spirit was directed to go, they went; they turned not about in their going.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:13 @ As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like coals of fire, burning as with the appearance of torches; this it was which passed along between the living creatures: and a brightness was about the fire, and out of the fire went forth lightning.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:14 @ And the living creatures ran backward and forward like the appearance of a flash of lightning.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:16 @ The appearance of the wheels and their work was like the color of a chrysolite; and all four had one likeness: and their appearance and their work was as though it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:18 @ As for their circumferences, they were so high that they excited fear: and their felloes were full of eyes round about on all these four.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:20 @ Whithersoever the spirit was to go, they went; thither was spirit to go: and the wheels lifted themselves up at the same time with them; for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:21 @ When those went, these went; and when those stood, these stood; and when those lifted themselves up from the earth, the wheels lifted themselves up at the same time with them; for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:22 @ And the likeness of a vault was over the head of the living creatures, like the glitter of the purest crystal, stretched forth over their heads above.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:24 @ And I heard the sound of their wings, like the sound of great waters, as the voice of the Almighty, when they went, the sound of speech, as the noise of an army: when they stood still, they let down their wings.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:26 @ And above the vault that was over their head was like the appearance of a sapphire–stone, the likeness of a throne: and upon the likeness of the throne was a likeness as the appearance of a man above upon it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:27 @ And I saw as if it were the glitter of amber, as the appearance of fire within it round about, from the appearance of his loins upward; and from the appearance of his loins downward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and it had brightness round about.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:28 @ Like the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud on the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about: this was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard the voice of one that spoke.

lesserot@Ezekiel:2:1 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, stand up upon thy feet, and I will speak with thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:2:3 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to rebellious tribes that have rebelled against me: they and their fathers have transgressed against me, even until this very day.

lesserot@Ezekiel:2:4 @ And the children are impudent of face, and obdurate of heart: I send thee unto them; and thou shalt say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:2:6 @ And thou, son of man,––thou shalt not be afraid of them, and of their words thou shalt have no fear, though they be briers and thorns with thee, and thou dost dwell among scorpions: of their words be not afraid, and at their presence be not dismayed; for they are a rebellious family.

lesserot@Ezekiel:2:8 @ But thou, son of man, hear what I am speaking unto thee, Be not thou rebellious like this rebellious family: open thy mouth, and eat what I give unto thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:1 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, eat what thou findest: eat this roll, and go, speak unto the house of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:3 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, feed thy belly, and fill thy bowels with this roll that I am giving unto thee. And I ate it; and it was in my mouth like honey in sweetness.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:4 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, go, get thee unto the house of Israel, and speak with my words unto them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:5 @ For not to a people of an obscure speech and of a difficult tongue art thou sent, but to the house of Israel;

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:6 @ Not to many people of an obscure speech and of a difficult tongue, whose words thou canst not understand. Surely, had I sent thee to them, they would truly have hearkened unto thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:7 @ But the house of Israel will not hearken unto thee; for they will not hearken unto me; for all the house of Israel have a bold forehead, and a hard heart.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:10 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, all my words that I will speak unto thee receive in thy heart, and hear with thy ears.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:11 @ And go, get thee to those in exile, unto the children of thy people, and speak unto them, and say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal: whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:12 @ Then a spirit took me up, and I heard behind me a voice of a great rushing, Blessed be the glory of the Lord from his place.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:13 @ also the sound of the wings of the living creatures that touched one another, and the sound of the wheels at the same time with them, and the sound of a great rushing.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:14 @ So a spirit lifted me up, and took me away, and I walked in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit, and the inspiration of the Lord was strong upon me.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:15 @ Then came I to the exiles at Tel–abib, who dwelt by the river Kebar, and I remained where they dwelt, and I remained there in a state of confusion among them seven days.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:16 @ And it came to pass at the end of seven days, That the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:17 @ Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: and thou shalt hear the word out of my mouth, and give them warning from me.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:20 @ Again, When a righteous man do turn from his righteousness, and do what is wrong: then will I lay a stumbling–block before him, he shall die; yet if thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his acts of righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require from thy hand.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:22 @ And the inspiration of the Lord came there over me; and he said unto me, Arise, go forth into the valley, and there will I speak with thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:23 @ And I arose, and went forth into the valley; and, behold, there was the glory of the Lord standing, like that glory which I had seen by the river Kebar: and I fell down on my face.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:25 @ But thou, O son of man, behold, they put ropes upon thee, and bind thee with them, that thou canst not go out among them:

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:26 @ And I will let thy tongue cleave to the roof of thy mouth, that thou shalt be dumb, and shalt not become to them a man who reproveth; for they are a rebellious family.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:1 @ But thou, O son of man, take thyself a tile, and lay it before thee, and engrave upon it a city, Jerusalem:

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:2 @ And place around it a siege, and build works of attack against it, and cast up a mound against it; and arrange around it encampments, and place against it battering rams round about.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:3 @ Moreover take thou unto thyself an iron pan, and set it up as a wall of iron between thee and the city: and direct thy face against it, that it may be placed in a state of siege, and lay siege against it. This shall be a sign for the house of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:4 @ And as for thyself, lie upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it: the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon it shalt thou bear their iniquity.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:5 @ But as for myself, I lay upon thee the years of their iniquity, after the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days: so shalt thou bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:6 @ And when thou hast made an end of them, thou shalt lie on thy right side, the second time, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: a day each for a year, a day for a year do I lay it on thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:7 @ And toward the siege of Jerusalem shalt thou direct thy face with thy arm uncovered, and thou shalt prophesy against it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:8 @ And, behold, I will lay ropes upon thee, that thou mayest not turn thyself from one side to the other, till thou hast made an end of the days of thy siege.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:9 @ But thou take unto thee wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentiles, and millet, and spelt, and put them in one vessel, and make thyself bread thereof, the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon thy side, three hundred and ninety days, shalt thou eat it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:11 @ And water shalt thou drink by measure, the sixth part of a hin: from one time to the other time shalt thou drink.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:12 @ And in form of a barley–cake shalt thou eat it, and this shalt thou bake with balls of human excrement before their eyes.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:13 @ And the Lord said, Even thus shall the children of Israel eat their bread unclean among the nations whither I will drive them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:14 @ Then said I, Ah Lord Eternal! behold, my soul hath not been defiled; and that which dieth of itself, or is torn in pieces, have I never eaten from my youth up even until now; and never is flesh of abomination come into my mouth.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:15 @ Then said he unto me, Lo, I have given thee cow’s dung instead of human excrement; and thou shalt prepare thy bread thereupon.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:16 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, behold, I will break the staff of bread in Jerusalem; and they shall eat bread by weight, and with anxious care; and they shall drink water by measure, and in confusion;

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:1 @ And thou, son of man, take unto thyself a sharp sword, a barber’s razor shalt thou take for it unto thyself, and cause it to pass over thy head and over thy beard: then take unto thee balances for weighing, and divide the hair.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:2 @ One third part shalt thou burn with fire in the midst of the city, when the days of the siege are completed; and thou shalt take another third part, and smite round about it with the sword; and the other third part shalt thou scatter to the wind: and I will draw out a sword after the same.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:3 @ And take thence a few in number, and tie them up in the corners of thy garment.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:4 @ And from these again shalt thou take some, and cast them into the midst of the fire, and burn them in the fire: therefrom shall a fire go forth unto all the house of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:5 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, This is Jerusalem, which I had set it in the midst of the nations and countries that are round about her.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:7 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because ye have given yourselves up to evil more than the nations that are round about you, have not walked in my statutes, and have not executed my ordinances, and not even acted according to the ordinances of the nations that are round about you:

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:8 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I, also I am against thee, and I will execute judgments in the midst of thee before the eyes of the nations.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:9 @ And I will do in thee that which I have never done, and the like of which I will never do any more, because of all thy abominations.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:10 @ Therefore fathers shall devour their children in the midst of thee, and children shall devour their fathers: and I will execute judgments on thee, and I will scatter all thy remnant unto all the winds.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:12 @ A third part of thee shall die through the pestilence, and come through famine to their end in the midst of thee; and another third part shall fall by the sword round about thee; and the other third part will I scatter unto all the winds, and a sword will I draw out after them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:14 @ Yea, I will render thee a ruin, and a disgrace among the nations that are round about thee, before the eyes of every one that passeth by.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:16 @ When I send out among them the dreadful arrows of famine, which were the cause of destruction, which I will send out to destroy you; and I will increase the famine upon you, and will break unto you the staff of bread:

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:2 @ Son of man, set thy face against the mountains of Israel, and prophesy against them,

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:3 @ And thou shalt say, O mountains of Israel, hear ye the word of the Lord Eternal! Thus hath said the Lord Eternal to the mountains, and to the hills, to the brooks, and to the valleys, Behold, I, even I, will bring over you the sword, and I will destroy your high–places.

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:5 @ And I will lay the carcasses of the children of Israel before their idols; and I will scatter your bones round about your altars.

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:7 @ And the slain shall fall in the midst of you: and ye shall know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:9 @ And those of you that escape shall remember me among the nations among whom they shall have been carried captive, when I shall have broken their licentious heart, which had departed from me, even with their eyes, which were gone astray after their idols: and they shall loathe themselves on account of the evil deeds which they have committed with all their abominations.

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:11 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Strike thy hands together, and stamp with thy foot, and say, Alas for all the dreadful abominations of the house of Israel! who will have to fall by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence.

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:12 @ He that is afar off shall die of the pestilence; and he that is near shall fall by the sword; and he that remaineth and is besieged shall die by the famine: thus will I let out all my fury on them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:13 @ And ye shall know that I am the Lord, when their slain ones shall lie in the midst of their idols round about their altars, on every high hill, upon all the tops of the mountains, and under every green tree, and under every thick–branched oak,––places where they presented sweet savor to all their idols.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:2 @ And thou, son of man, thus hath said the Lord Eternal concerning the land of Israel, There is an end! the end is coming over the four corners of the land.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:4 @ And my eye shall not show pity upon thee, and I will not spare thee; for thy own ways will I lay upon thee, and thy abominations shall come in the midst of thee: and ye shall know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:7 @ The evil decree is come against thee, O thou inhabitant of the land: the time is come, near is the day of tumult, and not the joyful call on the mountains.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:9 @ And my eye shall not show pity, and I will not spare: according to thy ways will I lay on thee, and thy abominations shall come in the midst of thee: and ye shall know that I am the Lord that smiteth.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:11 @ The violence is grown up into the staff of wickedness: nothing is left of them, and nothing of their multitude, and nothing of theirs; and there shall be no lamenting for them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:13 @ For the seller shall not return to that which is sold, although their soul were yet alive; for the vision is against all her multitude; no one shall return; but the soul of every one is fastened to his iniquity, they do not strengthen themselves.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:16 @ But they that escape of them shall escape, and they shall be on the mountains like the doves of the valleys, all of which are moaning, every one in his iniquity.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:19 @ Their silver shall they cast into the streets, and their gold shall be as though it were unclean: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them on the day of the wrath of the Lord; they shall not satisfy their souls, and not fill their bowels; because it was the stumbling–block for their iniquity.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:20 @ And as for the beauty of his ornament, which he had instituted for pride: even therein did they make the images of their abominations, their detestable things; therefore have I rendered it unclean for them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:21 @ And I will give it up into the hands of the strangers for a prey, and to the wicked of the earth for a spoil: and they shall pollute it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:23 @ Make chains; for the land is full of blood–guiltiness, and the city is full of violence.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:27 @ The king shall mourn, and the prince shall be clothed with distress, and the hands of the people of the land shall be powerless: after their way will I do unto them, and according to their own manners will I judge them; and they shall know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:1 @ And it came to pass in the sixth year, in the sixth month, on the fifth day of the month, that I was sitting in my house, and the elders of Judah were sitting before me; and there fell upon me there the inspiration of the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:2 @ And I saw, and, behold, there was a likeness similar to the appearance of fire; from the appearance of his loins downward, it was fire; and from his loins upward, it was similar to the appearance of a bright light, like the glitter of amber.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:3 @ And he stretched forth the form of a hand, and took me by the locks of my head; and a spirit bore me 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 wrath.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:4 @ And, behold, there was the glory of the God of Israel, like the appearance which I had seen in the valley.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:5 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, do but lift up thy eyes in the direction toward the north. So I lifted up my eyes in the direction toward the north, and behold northward at the gate of the altar this image of jealousy at the entrance.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:6 @ Then said he unto me, Son of man, seest thou what they are doing? great abominations are they that the house of Israel commit here, to make me go far away from my sanctuary; but thou shalt yet see still other great abominations.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:7 @ And he brought me to the door of the court: and I looked, and behold there was a hole in the wall.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:8 @ Then said he unto me, Son of man, do break in the wall: and I broke in the wall, and, behold, there was a door.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:10 @ So I went in and saw; and behold there was every form of creeping things, and cattle, abominations, and all the idols of the house of Israel, engraven upon the wall all round about.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:11 @ And seventy men of the elders of the house of Israel, and Yaazanyahu the son of Shaphan standing in the midst of them, were standing before them, and every man had his censer in his hand; and a thick curling cloud of incense was ascending upward.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:12 @ Then said he unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen what the elders of the house of Israel are doing in the dark, every man in his image–chambers? for they say, The Lord seeth us not: the Lord hath forsaken the earth.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:14 @ And he brought me to the entrance of the gate of the Lord’s house which was on the north side: and, behold, there sat the women weeping for Thammuz.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:15 @ Then said he unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? Thou shalt yet again see still other greater abominations than these.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:16 @ 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 were prostrating themselves eastward to the sun.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:17 @ Then said he unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? Is it too light a thing for the house of Judah to commit the abominations which they commit here? for they have filled the land with violence, and they constantly repeat to provoke me to anger; and, lo, they stretch forth the branch to their nose.

lesserot@Ezekiel:9:2 @ And, behold, six men came from the direction of the upper gate, which is turned toward the north, and every man with his weapon of destruction in his hand; and one man in the midst of them was clothed in linen, with a writer’s materials by his side: and they went in, and placed themselves beside the copper altar.

lesserot@Ezekiel:9:3 @ And the glory of the God of Israel ascended up from the cherub, whereupon it had been, to the threshold of the house. And he called to the man clothed in linen, who had the writer’s materials by his side.

lesserot@Ezekiel:9:4 @ And the Lord said unto him, Pass through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and inscribe a mark upon the foreheads of the men who sigh and who complain because of all the abominations which are done in the midst of it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:9:9 @ Then said he unto me, The iniquity of the house of Israel and of Judah is exceedingly great, and the land is full of blood–guiltiness, and the city full of injustice; for they have said, The Lord hath forsaken the land, and the Lord seeth not.

lesserot@Ezekiel:10:1 @ Then I saw, and, behold, on the vault that was above the head of the cherubim, there appeared over them something like a sapphire stone, something similar in appearance to the likeness of a throne.

lesserot@Ezekiel:10:2 @ And he said unto the man clothed in linen, and said, Go in between the wheels, under the cherub, and fill thy hands with coals of fire from between the cherubim, and throw over the city. And he went in before my eyes.

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

lesserot@Ezekiel:10:12 @ And their whole body, and their back, and their hands, and their wings, as also the wheels, were full of eyes round about, the wheels that belonged to all four of them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:10:14 @ And every one had four faces: the one face was the face of a cherub, and the second face was the face of a man, and the third face was the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.

lesserot@Ezekiel:10:21 @ Every one had four faces apiece, and every one had four wings; and the likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings.

lesserot@Ezekiel:10:22 @ And the likeness of their faces was the same as the faces which I had seen by the river Kebar, their appearances and themselves: they went every one in the direction of his face.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:1 @ And a spirit bore me up, and brought me unto the east gate of the house of the Lord, which looketh eastward: and behold, there were at the entrance of the gate five and twenty men; and I saw in the midst of them Yaazanyah the son of ‘Azzur, and Pelatyahu the son of Benayahu, princes of the people.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:2 @ Then said he unto me, Son of man, these are the men that devise wickedness, and give evil counsel in this city;

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

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:5 @ And the Spirit of the Lord fell upon me, and said unto me, Speak, Thus hath said the Lord, Thus have ye said, O house of Israel; and whatever cometh into your mind, do I know full well.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:7 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Those slain by you whom ye have struck down in the midst of it, ––they are the flesh, and this place is the pot; but you are to be removed out of the midst of it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:9 @ And I will remove you out of the midst of it, and I will give you up into the hand of strangers, and will execute punishments among you.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:10 @ By the sword shall ye fall; on the boundary of Israel will I judge you: and ye shall know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:11 @ This place shall not be unto you as a pot, so that you should be as flesh in the midst of it; but on the boundary of Israel will I judge you.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:12 @ And ye shall know that I am the Lord: because in my statutes have ye not walked, and my ordinances have ye not executed; but ye have done after the ordinances of the nations that are round about you.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:13 @ And it came to pass, as I was prophesying, that Pelatyahu the son of Benayah died. Then fell I down upon my face, and cried with a loud voice, and said, Ah Lord Eternal! wilt thou make a full end of the remnant of Israel?

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:14 @ Then came the word of the Lord unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:15 @ Son of man, thy brethren, even thy brethren, the men of thy kindred, and the whole house of Israel altogether, are they unto whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, Remain you far from the Lord: unto us is this land given for a possession.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:17 @ Therefore say, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, I will both gather you from the people, and assemble you out of the countries whether ye have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:18 @ And they shall come thither, and they shall remove all its detestable things, and all its abominations out of it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:19 @ And I will give them one single heart, and a new spirit will I put within you; and I will remove the heart of stone out of their body, and I will give unto them a heart of flesh:

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:21 @ But as for those whose heart walketh after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, their way do I bring upon their own head, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:22 @ Then did the cherubim lift up their wings, and the wheels at the same time with them; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:23 @ And the glory of the Lord ascended from the midst of the city, and halted upon the mount which is on the east side of the city.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:24 @ But a spirit bore me up, and brought me into Chaldea, to those in exile, in the appearance through the spirit of God: and then ascended away from me the appearance which I had seen.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:1 @ The word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:2 @ Son of man, in the midst of a rebellious family art thou dwelling, who have eyes to see, and see not; who have ears to hear, and hear not; for they are a rebellious family.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:3 @ But thou, O son of man, prepare for thyself vessels for going into exile, and wander away by day before their eyes; and thou shalt wander away from thy place to another place before their eyes: perhaps they may become aware that they are a rebellious family.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:4 @ Then shalt thou carry forth thy vessels, like vessels of exile, by day before their eyes: and thou shalt go forth at evening before their eyes, as they do that go forth into exile.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:6 @ Before their shalt thou bear them upon thy shoulders, in the dark shalt thou carry them forth: thy face shalt thou cover, that thou mayest not see the ground; for as a token have I set thee unto the house of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:7 @ And I did so as I had been commanded; my vessels I carried forth by day, like vessels of exile, and in the evening I broke a hole for myself through the wall with my hand: in the dark I brought them forth, and I bore them upon my shoulder before their eyes.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:13 @ And I will spread out my net over him, and he shall be caught in my snare: and I will bring him to Babylon into the land of the Chaldeans; yet shall he not see it, and there shall he die.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:14 @ And all that are round about him, those who assist him, and all the wings of his armies will I disperse toward every wind; and the sword will I draw out after them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:16 @ But I will leave of them men few in number from the sword, from the famine, and from the pestilence: in order that they may relate all their abominations among the nations whither they shall have come; and they shall know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:22 @ Son of man, what sort of proverb is that which ye have in the land of Israel, saying, The days are lasting long, and lost is every vision?

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:23 @ Therefore say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, I will cause this proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel; but speak unto them, The days are coming nigh, and the word of every vision.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:24 @ For there shall be no more any false vision and a deceptive divination within the house of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:26 @ And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:27 @ Son of man, behold, the house of Israel say, The vision that he foreseeth is for distant days, and for times that are far off doth he prophesy.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:28 @ Therefore say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, There shall not be delayed any more one of all my words; but whatever word I do speak shall be done, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:2 @ Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel that prophesy, and say thou unto those that prophesy out of their own heart, Hear ye the word of the Lord:

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:5 @ Ye did not go up into the breaches, nor did ye make a fence around the house of Israel to stand in the battle on the day of the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:6 @ They saw falsehood and lying divination, they who say, "The Lord saith," when the Lord had not sent them; and yet they made others hope for the fulfillment of the word.

lesserot@Ezekiel:14:20 @ And if Noah, Daniel, and Job, should be in the midst of it: as I live, saith the Lord Eternal, they should not save either son or daughter; they through their righteousness should save their own soul.

lesserot@Ezekiel:14:21 @ For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Although I send my four dreadful means of punishment over Jerusalem, the sword, and the famine, and the wild beasts, and the pestilence, to cut off from it man and beast:

lesserot@Ezekiel:15:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:15:2 @ Son of man, What shall become of the wood of the vine more than of any other wood, of the branch which was standing among the trees of the forest?

lesserot@Ezekiel:15:4 @ Behold, if it be given up to the fire to be consumed,–– the fire have consumed both its ends, and the middle of it be scorched; will it be fit for any work?

lesserot@Ezekiel:15:6 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, As the wood of the vine among the trees of the forest, which I have given up to the fire to be consumed: so do I give up the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:2 @ Son of man, make known unto Jerusalem her abominations,

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:3 @ And thou shalt say, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal unto Jerusalem, Thy origin and thy birth are out of the land of Canaan: thy father was an Emorite, and thy mother a Hittite.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:5 @ No eye looked with pity on thee, to do any of these things unto thee, to have compassion upon thee; but thou wast cast out on the open field, with a loathing of thy body, on the day that thou wast born.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:7 @ Myriads, like the vegetation of the field, did I make of thee, and thou didst increase and become great, and thou attainedst the highest attractions: with thy breasts developed, and thy hair full grown; but thou wast still naked and bare.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:8 @ But I passed then by thee, and saw thee, and, behold, thy time was the time of love; and I spread the skirt of my garment over thee, and covered thy nakedness: yea, I swore unto thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord Eternal, and thou becamest mine.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:10 @ I clothed thee also with broidered work, and made thee shoes of badger’s skin, and I placed on thy head a turban of fine linen, and I covered thee with silk.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:12 @ And I placed a ring on thy nose, and earrings in thy ears, and a crown of splendor on thy head.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:13 @ Thus wast thou ornamented with gold and silver; and thy garments were of fine linen, and silk, and broidered work; fine flour, and honey, and oil didst thou eat: and thou wast exceedingly beautiful, and thou didst succeed to acquire dominion.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:14 @ And thy fame went forth among the nations because of thy beauty; for it was perfect through my glorious ornament, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:15 @ But thou didst trust in thy beauty, and play the harlot because of thy fame, and lavish thy lewd caresses on every one that passed by––on him they were bestowed.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:17 @ And thou didst take thy elegant ornaments of my gold and of my silver, which I had given thee, and make for thyself male images, and play the harlot with them;

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:20 @ And thou didst take thy sons and thy daughters, whom thou hadst born unto me, and didst slaughter these unto them to be devoured; were thy acts of lewdness not yet enough?

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:22 @ And in all thy abominations and thy acts of lewdness thou didst not remember the days of thy youth, when thou wast naked and bare, when thou wast stained with thy blood.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:25 @ On the corner of every road didst thou build thy elevations, and make thy beauty abominable, and spread out thy feet to every one that passed by, and multiply thy acts of lewdness.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:26 @ And thou didst play the harlot with the Egyptians, thy neighbors, with large limbs, and multiply thy acts of lewdness, to provoke me to anger.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:27 @ And, behold, I stretched out my hand over thee, and diminished thy stated portion; and I gave thee up unto the will of those that hate thee, the daughters of the Philistines, who were made to blush for thy incestuous course.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:28 @ Then didst thou play the harlot with the sons of Asshur, because thou wast unsatiable: yea, thou didst play the harlot with them, and wast even then not satisfied.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:30 @ How very corrupt is thy heart, saith the Lord Eternal, seeing thou didst all these things, deeds of an abandoned lewd woman;

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:31 @ Seeing that thou didst build thy eminences at the corner of every road, and make thy elevations in every street; and wast not like a harlot, as thou scornedst the wages.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:33 @ Unto all harlots they give presents; but thou hast given thy presents to all thy lovers, and hast bribed them, that they might come unto thee from every side in thy acts of lewdness.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:34 @ And the reverse was the case with thee from women in thy acts of lewdness, that men did not follow thee to seek thy lewd caresses; and because thou gavest the wages, and no wages were given thee: so was it the reverse with thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:35 @ Therefore, O harlot, hear the word of the Lord!

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:36 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Whereas thy wealth was squandered, and thy nakedness was uncovered through thy lewd acts with thy lovers, and with all thy abominable idols, and for the blood of thy children, whom thou didst give unto them:

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:38 @ And I will judge thee, as adulteresses and women that shed blood are judged; and I will bring upon thee the blood of fury and jealousy.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:39 @ And I will also give thee up into their hand, and they shall pull down thy eminences, and shall break down thy elevations; and they shall strip thee of thy clothes, and they shall take thy elegant ornaments, and leave thee naked and bare.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:41 @ And they shall burn thy houses with fire, and execute punishments on thee before the eyes of many women: and I will cause thee to cease from being a harlot, and also the wages shalt thou not give any more.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:43 @ Because that thou didst not remember the days of thy youth, but didst irritate me with all these things: behold, therefore I also will bring thy course upon thy head, saith the Lord Eternal, and thou shalt no more commit incest with all thy abominations.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:45 @ Thou art thy mother’s daughter, loathing her husband and her children; and thou art the sister of thy sisters, who have loathed their husbands and their children: your mother was a Hittite, and your father an Emorite.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:49 @ Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom: Pride, abundance of food, and prosperous security were hers and her daughters’; but the hand of the poor and needy did she not strengthen.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:51 @ And Samaria hath not committed even the half of thy sins; but thou didst multiply thy abominations more than they; and thou hast justified thy sisters through all thy abominations which thou hast done.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:52 @ Bear then thou also thy own confusion, which thou didst adjudge unto each of thy sisters; through thy sins, which thou hast committed more abominably than they, are they made more righteous than thou: therefore thou also––be ashamed, and bear thy confusion, since thou hast justified thy sisters.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:53 @ And I will bring back again their captivity, the captivity of Sodom and her daughters, and the captivity of Samaria and her daughters, and the captivity of the captives in the midst of them:

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:54 @ In order that thou mayest bear thy confusion, and mayest be confounded because of all that thou hast done, when thou art a comfort unto them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:57 @ Before yet thy wickedness was discovered, as at the time of the reproach of the daughters of Syria, and all those round about her, the daughters of the Philistines, who taunted thee on all sides?

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:60 @ Nevertheless will I indeed remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth, and I will establish unto thee an everlasting covenant.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:63 @ In order that thou mayest remember, and feel ashamed, and never open thy mouth any more because of thy confusion, when I forgive thee for all that thou hast done, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:2 @ Son of man, put forth a riddle, and propound a parable unto the house of Israel;

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:3 @ And say, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, The great eagle with large wings, long winged, full of feathers, who is rich in many colors, came unto the Lebanon, and took the highest branch of the cedar:

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:4 @ The topmost of its young twigs did he crop off, and carry it into the traders’ land; and he set it in a city of merchants.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:5 @ And he took some of the seed of the land, and planted it in a fruitful field: he placed it by great waters, he transplanted it among the willow–trees.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:6 @ And it grew, and became a trailing vine of low stature, the tendrils of which should turn toward him, and the roots of which should be under him: so it became a vine, and brought forth branches, and sent out shoots.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:9 @ Say now, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Shall it prosper? Behold the other will pull up its roots, and its fruit will he cut away, that it may dry up; every one of its growing leaves shall dry up; and not with great power and numerous people to tear it away from its roots.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:11 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:12 @ Do now say to the rebellious family, Know ye not what these things mean? Say, Behold, the king of Babylon came to Jerusalem, and took away its king and its princes, and he brought them unto himself to Babylon;

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:13 @ And he took one of the royal seed, and made a covenant with him, and bound him with an oath; but the mighty of the land did he take away;

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:16 @ As I live, saith the Lord Eternal, surely in the residence of the king that hath made him king, whose oath he hath despised, and whose covenant he hath broken, even near him in the midst of Babylon shall he die.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:17 @ And not with a mighty army and a large assembly shall Pharaoh labor for him in the war, when casteth up mounds, and buildeth works of attack, to cut off many souls.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:21 @ And all his fugitives with all the wings of his army shall fall by the sword, and those that remain shall be dispersed toward all winds: and ye shall know that I the Lord have spoken it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:22 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, But I myself will take of the highest branch of the high cedar, and will preserve it; from the topmost of its young twigs will I crop off a tender one, and I myself will plant it firmly upon a high and eminent mountain:

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:23 @ On the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it firmly; and it shall produce boughs, and bear fruit, and become an elegant cedar; and there shall dwell under it all fowls, every thing that hath wing; in the shadow of its light branches shall they dwell.

lesserot@Ezekiel:19:5 @ Now when she saw that she had long waited, her hope was lost, she took another one of her whelps, and made him a young lion.

lesserot@Ezekiel:19:6 @ And he went up and down in the midst of lions, he became a young lion; and he learned to tear in pieces the prey; even men he devoured.

lesserot@Ezekiel:19:7 @ And he broke down their palaces, and their cities laid he in ruins: and then was terrified the land, with all that filled it, because of the noise of his roaring.

lesserot@Ezekiel:19:9 @ And they put him in a cage with nose–rings, and they brought him to the king of Babylon: they brought him into strong–holds, in order that his voice should no more be heard on the mountains of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:19:10 @ Thy mother was like a vine, if I compare thee to aught, planted by the waters: fruitful and full of boughs was she by reason of many waters.

lesserot@Ezekiel:19:11 @ And she had strong branches for the sceptres of rulers, and her stature grew up high between the thick–branched, and she was seen through her height by means of the multitude of her tendrils.

lesserot@Ezekiel:19:12 @ But she was plucked up in fury, to the ground was she cast down, and the east wind dried up her fruit: and torn off and dried up were her strong branches, a fire consumed them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:19:14 @ And fire is gone out of a branch of her boughs, and hath devoured her fruit, so that there is no more on her a strong branch for a sceptre to rule. This is a lamentation, and it is become a lamentation.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:1 @ And it came to pass in the seventh year, in the fifth month, on the tenth day of the month, that certain men of the elders of Israel came to inquire of the Lord, and they sat down before me.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:2 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:3 @ Son of man, speak unto the elders of Israel, and say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Is it to inquire of me that ye are coming? as I live, I will not let myself be inquired of by you, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:4 @ Wilt thou take them to task, wilt thou take them to task, son of man? then cause them to know the abominations of their fathers;

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:5 @ And say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, On the day when I made choice of Israel, I lifted up my hand unto the seed of the house of Jacob, and I made myself known unto them in the land of Egypt: and I lifted up my hand unto them, saying, I am the Lord your God.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:6 @ On the same day I lifted up my hand unto them, to bring them forth from the land of Egypt into a land that I had selected for them, flowing with milk and honey, which is an ornament among all the countries.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:7 @ And I said unto them, Cast ye away every one of the abominations of his eyes, and on the idols of Egypt shall ye not defile yourselves: I am the Lord your God.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:8 @ But they rebelled against me, and they would not hearken unto me; they did not cast away every one the abominations of their eyes, and the idols of Egypt did they not forsake: and I thought then to pour out my fury over them, to let out all my anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:9 @ But I acted for the sake of my name, so as not to profane it before the eyes of the nations, in the midst of whom they were; because I had made myself known unto them before their eyes, to bring them forth out of the land of Egypt.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:10 @ I therefore caused them to go forth out of the land of Egypt, and brought them into the wilderness.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:13 @ But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness; in my statutes they walked not, and my ordinances they despised, which a man is to do, that he may live through them; and my sabbaths they greatly profaned: and I then thought to pour out my fury over them in the wilderness, to make an end of them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:14 @ But I acted for the sake of my name, so as not to profane it before the eyes of the nations, before whose eyes I had brought them forth.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:16 @ Because my ordinances they had despised, and in my statutes they had not walked, and my sabbaths they had profaned; for after their idols did their heart go.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:17 @ Nevertheless my eye looked pityingly on them, so as not to destroy them, and I did not make an end of them in the wilderness.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:18 @ And I said unto their children in the wilderness, In the statutes of your fathers shall ye not walk, and their ordinances shall ye not keep, and on their idols shall ye not defile yourselves.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:21 @ Nevertheless the children rebelled against me; in my statutes did they not walk, and my ordinances they kept not to do them, which a man is to do, that he may live through them; my sabbaths they profaned: and I then thought to pour out my fury over them, to let out all my anger against them in the wilderness.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:22 @ But I withdrew my hand, and acted for the sake of my name, so as not to profane it before the eyes of the nations, before whose eyes I had brought them forth.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:24 @ Because my ordinances they had not executed, and my statutes they had despised, and my sabbaths they had profaned, and after the idols of their fathers their eyes were directed.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:27 @ Therefore, speak unto the house of Israel, O son of man, and say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Yet in this too did your fathers blaspheme me, by their committing a trespass against me:

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:28 @ When I had brought them into the land, for which I had lifted up my hand to give it to them, they saw every high hill, and all the thick–branched trees, and they offered there their sacrifices, and presented there their provoking offerings, and they brought there their sweet savor, and poured out there their drink–offerings.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:30 @ Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Ha! do you pollute yourselves after the manner of your fathers; and after their abominations do ye go astray?

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:31 @ And when ye offer up your gifts, when ye make your sons pass through the fire, ye pollute yourselves with all your idols, even until this day: and I should allow myself to be inquired of by you, O house of Israel? As I live, saith the Lord Eternal, I will not let myself be inquired of by you.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:32 @ And that which cometh up into your mind shall not at all come to pass, that ye say, We will be like the nations, like the families of the countries, to serve wood and stone.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:34 @ And I will bring you out from the people, and I will gather you out of the countries wherein ye are scattered, with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with fury poured out.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:35 @ And I will bring you into the wilderness of the people, and I will hold judgment over you there, face to face.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:36 @ As I held judgment over your fathers in the wilderness of the land of Egypt, so will I hold judgment over you, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:37 @ And I will cause you to pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant;

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:38 @ And I will separate from you those that have rebelled, and those that have transgressed against me: out of the country where they sojourn will I cause them to go forth, but into the land of Israel shall not one enter; and ye shall know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:39 @ As for you, O house of Israel, thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Go ye, serve ye every one his idols, and hereafter, if ye will not hearken unto me; but my holy name do not profane any more with your gifts, and with your idols.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:40 @ For on my holy mountain, on the mountain of the height of Israel, saith the Lord Eternal, there shall serve me all the house of Israel, altogether, in the land: there will I accept them in favor, and there will I require your heave–offerings, and the first–fruits of your oblations, with all your holy things.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:41 @ With your sweet savor will I accept you in favor, when I bring you out from the people, and gather you out of the countries wherein ye have been scattered: and I will be sanctified through you before the eyes of the nations.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:42 @ And ye shall know that I am the Lord, when I bring you into the land of Israel, into the country for which I have lifted up my hand to give it to your fathers.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:43 @ And ye shall remember there your ways, and all your doings, whereby ye have been defiled; and ye shall loathe yourselves, because of all your evil deeds that ye have committed.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:44 @ And ye shall know that I am the Lord, when I deal with you for the sake of my name, not in accordance with your wicked ways, and in accordance with your corrupt doings, O ye house of Israel, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:2 @ And thou, son of man, wilt thou take to task, wilt thou take to task the city of blood? and wilt thou make her know all her abominations?

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:6 @ Behold, the princes of Israel were each with his arm within thee, in order to shed blood.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:7 @ Father and mother they esteemed lightly within thee, toward the stranger they acted with extortion in the midst of thee, the fatherless and the widow they oppressed within thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:8 @ My holy things thou didst despise, and my sabbaths thou didst profane.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:9 @ Tale–bearers were within thee, in order to shed blood; and upon the mountains did they eat within thee; incest did they commit in the midst of thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:11 @ And one with his neighbor’s wife did commit abomination; and another did defile his daughter–in–law with incest; and another did violate his sister, the daughter of his father, within thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:12 @ Bribes they took within thee, in order to shed blood; interest and increase didst thou take, and thou didst acquire gain off thy neighbors by extortion: and me thou didst forget, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:13 @ And behold, I have struck my hands together at thy wrongful gain which thou hast acquired, and at thy blood–guilt which hath been in the midst of thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:15 @ And I will scatter thee among the nations, and disperse thee in the countries, and I will entirely remove thy uncleanness out of thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:16 @ And thou shalt be degraded through thyself before the eyes of nations, and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:17 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:18 @ Son of man, the house of Israel are become to me dross: they all are copper, and tin, and iron, and lead, in the midst of the furnace; the dross of silver are they become.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:19 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because ye are all become dross, therefore, behold, I will gather you into the midst of Jerusalem.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:20 @ As silver, and copper, and iron, and lead, and tin are gathered into the midst of the furnace, to blow the fire upon it, to melt it: so will I gather you in my anger and in my fury and I will lay you down there, and melt you.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:21 @ Yea, I will assemble you in a heap, and blow upon you with the fire of my wrath, and ye shall be melted in the midst of it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:22 @ As silver is melted in the midst of the furnace, so shall ye be melted in the midst of it: and ye shall know that I am the Lord who have poured out my fury over you.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:23 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:24 @ Son of man, say unto her, Thou art a land that is not cleansed; which is not rained upon on the day of indignation.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:25 @ The banded troop of her prophets in the midst of her is like a roaring lion that teareth in pieces the prey: souls do they devour; wealth and precious things do they take away; the number of her widows do they increase in the midst of her.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:26 @ Her priests violate my law, and profane my holy things: between the holy and profane do they make no distinction, and the difference between the unclean and the clean do they not make known, and from my sabbaths do they turn away their eyes, so that I am profaned among them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:29 @ The people of the land are guilty of extortion, and practise robbery, and the poor and the needy they defraud: and they extort from the stranger with injustice.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:30 @ And I seek now among them for a man, that could erect a fence, and stand in the breach before me in behalf of the land, so that I should not destroy it; but I find none.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:31 @ And I therefore pour out over them my indignation; with the fire of my wrath do I make an end of them: their own way do I bring upon their head, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:2 @ Son of man, there were two women, the daughters of one mother;

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:6 @ Clothed in blue, governors, and rulers, attractive youths all of them, horsemen riding upon horses.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:7 @ Thus she played the harlot with them, all of them the chosen ones of the sons of Asshur: and with all for whom she longed,––with all their idols did she defile herself.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:9 @ Therefore did I give her up into the hand of her lovers, into the hand of the sons of Asshur, after whom she longed.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:12 @ For the sons of Asshur did she long, the governors and rulers that were near, clothed as they were most gorgeously, horsemen riding upon horses, attractive youths all of them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:14 @ But she added still more to her acts of lewdness; for when she saw men engraved upon the wall, the images of the Chaldeans portrayed with color,

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:15 @ Bound with girdles on their loins, with hanging down colored turbans on their heads, in appearance like commanders, all of them, in the likeness of the sons of Babylon of the Chaldeans, the land of their birth:

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:17 @ And the sons of Babylon came to her unto the couch of love, and they defiled her with their lewd caresses; and when she had been defiled with them, she tore her soul away from them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:19 @ Yet she multiplied her deeds of lewdness, in calling to remembrance the days of her youth, when she had played the harlot in the land of Egypt.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:20 @ And she longed for her paramours, whose flesh is as the flesh of asses, and whose lustfulness is like the lustfulness of horses.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:21 @ And thou calledst to mind the incest of thy youth, when thy bosom was touched by the Egyptians for the sake of thy youthful breasts.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:23 @ The sons of Babylon, and all the Chaldeans, Pekod, and Shoa and Koa, and all the sons of Asshur with them, attractive youths, governors and rulers all of them, commanders and chiefs, riding upon horses all of them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:24 @ And they shall come over thee with weapons, chariots, and wheels, and with an assembly of people, buckler and shield and helmet shall they set up against thee round about: and I will give up before them the right to judge, and they shall judge thee according to their ordinances.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:25 @ And I will set my zealousness against thee, and they shall deal with thee in fury; thy nose and thy ears shall they cut off; and what is left of thee shall fall by the sword: thy sons and thy daughters shall they take away; and what is left of thee shall be devoured by the fire.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:26 @ And they shall strip thee of thy clothes, and take away thy ornamental attire.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:27 @ Thus will I make thy incest to cease from thee, and thy lewdness brought from the land of Egypt: and thou shalt not lift up thy eyes unto them, and Egypt shalt thou not remember any more.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:28 @ For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will give thee up into the hand of those whom thou hatest, into the hand of those from whom thy soul hath torn itself away;

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:29 @ And they shall deal with thee in hate, and shall take away all thy labor, and they shall leave thee naked and bare: and thus shall be uncovered the nakedness of thy lewdness, and thy incest and thy lewd deeds.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:31 @ On the way of thy sister hast thou walked; therefore will I place her cup into thy hand.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:32 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, The cup of thy sister shalt thou drink, the deep and wide one: thou shalt become to be laughed to scorn and to be held in derision, more than thou canst bear.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:33 @ With drunkenness and sorrow shalt thou be filled, the cup of astonishment and confusion, the cup of thy sister Samaria.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:35 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because thou hast forgotten me, and cast me behind thy back: therefore bear thou also thy incest and thy acts of lewdness.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:36 @ The Lord said moreover unto me, Son of man, wilt thou call Aholah and Aholibah to account? then tell them of their abominations;

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:38 @ Moreover this have they done unto me: they have defiled my sanctuary on the same day, and my sabbaths have they profaned.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:39 @ And when they had slain their children to their idols, then came they into my sanctuary on the same day to profane it: and, lo, thus have they done in the midst of my house.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:42 @ And the shout of a peaceful joyous multitude was within her; and with the men of the masses of the common people were brought Sabeans from the wilderness; and these women placed bracelets on their hands, and crowns of glory upon their heads.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:43 @ Then thought I of her that was worn out in adulteries, Will they now commit lewdness with her, when she?

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:46 @ For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, I will bring up against them an assemblage of men, and I will give them up to ill–usage and plunder.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:48 @ Thus will I cause incest to cease out of the land, that all women may be warned by example, and not do after your incestuous course.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:49 @ And they shall lay your incest upon you, and the sins of your idols shall ye bear: and ye shall know that I am the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me in the ninth year, in the tenth month, on the tenth day of the month, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:2 @ Son of man, write thee down the name of this day, of this same day: the king of Babylon hath advanced against Jerusalem on this same day.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:5 @ Take the choice of the flock, and make also a fire for the bones under it: cause it to seethe well, that even the bones therein may be fully boiled through.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:6 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Woe to the city of blood–guiltiness, to the pot the scum of which is yet in it, and the scum of which is not gone out of it! one of its pieces after the other take out from it: no lot is cast for it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:7 @ For her blood was in the midst of her; on the naked rock did she place it: she poured it not upon the ground, to cover it over with dust.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:9 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Woe to the city of blood–guiltiness! I also will myself build up a large burning pile,

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:12 @ With fraud hath she wearied; therefore shall not go forth from her the greatness of her scum: through fire shall her scum.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:15 @ And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:16 @ Son of man, behold, I will take away from thee the desire of thy eyes by a sudden death; but thou shalt neither mourn nor weep, nor shalt thou shed a tear.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:17 @ Sigh in silence, make no mourning for the deceased, thy bonnet bind around thy head, and thy shoes put on thy feet, and cover not thyself to thy upper lip, and eat not the bread of men.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:20 @ And I said unto them, The word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:21 @ Speak unto the house of Israel, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will profane my sanctuary, the pride of your strength, the desire of your eyes, and the darling of your soul: and your sons and your daughters whom ye have left behind shall fall by the sword.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:22 @ And ye shall do as I have done: ye shall not cover yourselves to your upper lip, and the bread of other men shall ye not eat.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:25 @ Also, thou son of man, behold, on the day when I take from them their stronghold, the joy of their glory, the desire of their eyes, and the coveted object of their soul, their sons and their daughters,––

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:2 @ Son of man, set thy face against the sons of ‘Ammon, and prophesy against them;

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:3 @ And say unto the sons of ‘Ammon, Hear ye the word of the Lord Eternal, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because thou hast said, Aha, concerning my sanctuary, when it was profaned; and concerning the land of Israel, when it was made desolate; and concerning the house of Judah, when they went into exile:

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:4 @ Therefore, behold, I will give thee up to the children of the east for a possession, and they shall set up their towers in thee, and place in thee their dwellings; they shall indeed eat thy fruit, and they shall surely drink thy milk.

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:5 @ And I will change Rabbah into a pasture for camels, and the sons of ‘Ammon into a resting–place for flocks: and ye shall know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:6 @ For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Whereas thou didst clap thy hands, and stamp with thy feet, and rejoice with all thy derision in the soul over the land of Israel:

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:7 @ Therefore, behold, will I stretch out my hand over thee, and will give thee up for a spoil to the nations; and I will cut thee off from the people, and I will cause thee to perish out of the countries; I will destroy thee, and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:8 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because Moab and Se’ir do say, Behold, the house of Judah is like all the nations:

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:9 @ Therefore, behold, I will open the side of Moab from the cities, from his cities on his frontiers, the glory of the country, Beth–ha–yeshimoth, Ba’al–me’on, and Kiryathayim,

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:10 @ Unto the children of the east against the sons of ‘Ammon, and I will give them in possession; in order that the sons of ‘Ammon may not be remembered among the nations.

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:12 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because the Edomites have acted revengefully against the house of Judah, and have greatly offended, and have taken vengeance on them:

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:13 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, I will also stretch out my hand against Edom, and cut off from it man and beast; and I will make it a ruined land from Theman; and they of Dedan shall fall by the sword.

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:14 @ And I will display my vengeance on Edom by the hand of my people Israel; and they shall do in Edom according to my anger and according to my fury: and they shall feel my vengeance, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:15 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because the Philistines have acted in revenge, and have taken vengeance with derision in their soul, to destroy out of ancient enmity:

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:16 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will stretch out my hand against the Philistines, and I will cut off the Kerethim, and destroy the remnant of the of the sea–coast.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:1 @ And it came to pass in the eleventh year, on the first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:4 @ And they shall destroy the walls of Tyre, and pull down her towers: I will also flood away her earth from her, and I will change her into a naked rock.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:5 @ A place for the spreading out of nets shall she be in the midst of the sea; for I have spoken it, saith the Lord Eternal: and she shall become a spoil to the nations.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:7 @ For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will bring against Tyre Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, from the north, the king of kings, with horses, and with chariot’s, and with horsemen, and an assemblage, and a numerous people.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:8 @ Thy daughters in the field will he slay with the sword: and he shall place around thee works of attack, and cast up against thee a mound, and erect against thee a target–fence.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:10 @ By reason of the abundance of his horses shall the dust they raise cover thee: by reason of the noise of horsemen, and wheels, and chariots, shall thy walls quake, when he entereth into thy gates, as men enter into a city that is broken in.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:11 @ With the hoofs of his horses shall he tread down all thy streets: thy people will he slay with the sword, and the statues of thy strength shall come down to the ground.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:12 @ And they shall plunder thy riches, and make a spoil of thy merchandise; and they shall break down thy walls, and thy pleasure–houses shall they pull down: and thy stones and thy timber and thy earth shall they throw into the midst of the water.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:13 @ And I will cause the sound of thy songs to cease: and the tones of thy harps shall not be heard any more.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:15 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal to Tyre, Truly at the noise of thy fall, when the deadly wounded whine, when the slaughter taketh place in the midst of thee, shall the islands quake.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:16 @ Then shall all the princes of the sea come down from their thrones, and lay aside their robes, and their broidered garments shall they put off: with trembling shall they clothe themselves; upon the ground shall they sit, and shall tremble at every moment, and be astonished concerning thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:17 @ And they shall lift up over thee a lamentation, and say to thee, How art thou lost, that wast inhabited by reason of the seas: O renowned city, which was strong on the sea, she and her inhabitants, who caused their terror to be on all that dwelt around her!

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:18 @ Now shall the isles tremble on the day of thy fall; yea, the isles that are in the sea shall be troubled at thy end.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:20 @ Then will I bring thee down with those that descend into the pit, unto the people of olden time, and I will cause thee to dwell in the land of the nether world, among ruins of ancient days, with those that go down to the pit, in order that thou mayest not be inhabited; but I will bestow glory in the land of life.

lesserot@Ezekiel:27:4 @ In the heart of the seas were thy boundaries, thy builders had perfected thy beauty.

lesserot@Ezekiel:27:5 @ Of the fir–trees from Senir had they built thee all thy woodwork: cedars from Lebanon had they taken to make masts for thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:27:6 @ Of the oaks of Bashan had they made thy oars; thy rudder had they made inlaid with ivory of boxwood, brought out of the isles of the Kittim.

lesserot@Ezekiel:27:7 @ Fine linen with broidered work from Egypt was thy flag to be unto thee a sign: of blue and purple from the isles of Ellishah was thy cover.

lesserot@Ezekiel:27:8 @ The inhabitants of Zidon and Arvad were thy oarsmen: thy wise men, O Tyre, that were in thee, these were thy pilots.

lesserot@Ezekiel:27:9 @ The elders of Gebal and her wise men were in thee thy caulkers: all the ships of the sea with their mariners were in thee to carry on thy commerce.

lesserot@Ezekiel:27:10 @ They of Persia and of Lud and of Put were in thy army, thy men of war: the shield and the helmet did they hang up in thee; these gave thee thy elegance.

lesserot@Ezekiel:27:11 @ The men of Arvad with thy army were upon thy walls round about, and the Gammadim were in thy towers: their quivers they hung upon thy walls round about; these made perfect thy beauty.

lesserot@Ezekiel:27:12 @ Tharshish was thy merchant through the abundance of all kind of wealth: with silver, iron, tin, and lead, they supplied thy markets.

lesserot@Ezekiel:27:13 @ Javan, Thubal, and Meshech; these were thy merchants: with the persons of men and vessels of copper they carried on thy commerce.

lesserot@Ezekiel:31:5 @ Therefore became its stature higher than all the trees of the field, and its boughs were multiplied, and its branches became long because of the multitude of waters, when it stretched itself forth.

lesserot@Ezekiel:31:6 @ In its boughs made all the fowls of heaven their nest, and under its branches did all the beasts of the field bring forth their young, and under its shade dwelt all great nations.

lesserot@Ezekiel:31:7 @ And it was beautiful in its greatness, in the length of its light branches; for its root was by many waters.

lesserot@Ezekiel:31:8 @ The cedars could not obscure it in the garden of God; the firs were not like its boughs, and the chestnut–trees were not like its branches: not any tree in the garden of God was like unto it in its beauty.

lesserot@Ezekiel:31:9 @ Beautiful had I made it by the multitude of its light branches: so that all the trees of ‘Eden that were in the garden of God, envied it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:31:11 @ Therefore do I give it up into the hand of the mighty one of the nations; he shall surely deal with it at his pleasure; for its wickedness do I drive it out.

lesserot@Ezekiel:31:15 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, On the day when it went down to the grave I caused a mourning; I covered the deep for its sake, and I restrained its rivers, and the great waters were withheld; and I caused Lebanon to be clothed in black attire for its sake, and all the trees of the field were famished because of it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:31:16 @ Through the noise of its downfall I caused nations to quake, when I cast it down into the tomb with the that descend into the pit: and in the land of the nether world comforted themselves all the trees of ‘Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that were nourished by water.

lesserot@Ezekiel:34:13 @ And I will bring them out from the people, and gather them from the countries, and I will bring them to their own land; and I will feed them upon the mountains of Israel, in the ravines, and in all the inhabited places of the country.

lesserot@Ezekiel:34:14 @ On a good pasture will I feed them, and upon the high mountains of Israel shall be their fold: there shall they lie in a good fold, and in a fat pasture shall they feed on the mountains of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:34:18 @ Is it too little for you that ye can feed on the good pasture, that ye must tread down the residue of your pastures with your feet? and that ye can drink clear waters, that ye must render muddy with your feet what is left?

lesserot@Ezekiel:34:25 @ And I will make with them a covenant of peace, and I will cause the wild beasts to cease out of the land: and they shall dwell in the wilderness in safety, and sleep in the forests.

lesserot@Ezekiel:34:26 @ And I will make them and the environs of my hill a blessing; and I will cause the rain to come down in its season; rains of blessing shall they be.

lesserot@Ezekiel:34:27 @ And the tree of the field shall yield its fruit, and the earth shall yield her products, and they shall be on their land in safety: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I break the bands of their yoke, and deliver them out of the hand of those that had made them labor for them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:34:28 @ And they shall be no more a prey to the nations, and the beasts of the land shall not devour them; but they shall dwell in safety, with none to make them afraid.

lesserot@Ezekiel:34:29 @ And I will raise up for them a plantation for a renown, and they shall be no more taken away by hunger in the land, neither bear the shameful reproach of the nations any more.

lesserot@Ezekiel:34:30 @ Thus shall they experience that I the Lord their God am with them, and that they, the house of Israel, are my people, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:34:31 @ And ye my flock, the flock of my pasture, are men, I am your God, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:35:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:35:2 @ Son of man, set thy face against the mountain of Se’ir, and prophecy against it,

lesserot@Ezekiel:35:3 @ And say unto it, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will be against thee, O mountain of Se’ir, and I will stretch out my hand over thee, and I will render thee desolate and wasted.

lesserot@Ezekiel:35:5 @ Because thou hast had an undying hatred, and didst surrender the children of Israel to the power of the sword, at the time of their calamity, at the time of the iniquity of the end:

lesserot@Ezekiel:35:7 @ Thus will I change the mountain of Se’ir into a desolate land and a waste, and I will cut off from it him that travelleth forward and backward.

lesserot@Ezekiel:35:10 @ Because thou hast said, These two nations and these two countries shall indeed be mine, and we will take possession thereof; whereas the Lord was there:

lesserot@Ezekiel:35:11 @ Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord God, I will even do according to thy anger, and according to thy envy which thou didst use out of thy hatred against them; and I will make myself known among them, when I judge thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:35:12 @ And thou shalt know that I am the Lord: I have heard all thy blasphemies which thou hast spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, They are laid desolate, they are given unto us to consume them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:35:15 @ As thou didst rejoice over the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was made desolate: so will I do unto thee; desolate shalt thou be, O mountain of Se’ir, and all Idumea––altogether; and they shall know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:1 @ But thou, son of man, prophesy unto the mountains of Israel, and say, O mountains of Israel, hear ye the word of the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:3 @ Therefore prophesy and say, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because, even because men have made you desolate, and sought to swallow you up on every side, that ye might become a possession unto the residue of the nations, and ye are taken up as a talk for tongues, and an evil report of the people:

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:4 @ Therefore, O mountains of Israel, hear ye the word of the Lord Eternal, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal to the mountains, and to the hills, to the ravines, and to the valleys, to the desolate ruins, and to the cities that are forsaken, which are become a prey and derision to the residue of the nations that are round about:

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:5 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Surely in the fire of my jealousy have I spoken against the residue of the nations, and against all Idumea, that have appropriated my land unto themselves as a possession with the joy of all their heart, with derision in their soul, in order to drive it out that it may be for a prey.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:6 @ Therefore prophesy concerning the land of Israel, and say unto the mountains, and to the hills, to the ravines, and to the valleys, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, In my zealousness and in my fury have I spoken, because ye have borne the reproach of the nations:

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:8 @ But ye, O mountains of Israel, ye shall send forth your boughs, and your fruit shall ye bear for my people Israel, for they are near at hand to come.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:10 @ And I will multiply upon you men, all the house of Israel–– altogether; and the cities shall be inhabited again, and the ruins shall be rebuilt;

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:15 @ And I will not let be heard against thee any more the reproach of the nations, and the disgrace of the people shalt thou not bear any more, and thy nations shalt thou not cast out any more, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:16 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:17 @ Son of man, the house of Israel, when they dwelt in their own land, defiled it through their way and through their doings: like the uncleanness of a woman in her separation was their way before me.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:18 @ And I poured out my fury over them because of the blood that they had shed in the land, and because through their idols they had polluted it;

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:20 @ And when they were come unto the nations, whither they were gone, they profaned my holy name; because they said of them, These are the people of the Lord, and out of his land are they gone forth.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:21 @ But I had pity for my holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations, whither they were gone.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:22 @ Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Not for your sake do I this, O house of Israel, but for the sake of my holy name, which ye have profaned among the nations, whither ye are gone.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:23 @ And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned among the nations, which ye have profaned in the midst of them; and the nations shall know that I am the Lord, saith the Lord Eternal, when I will be sanctified through you before your eyes.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:24 @ And I will take you from among the nations, and I will gather you out of all the countries, and I will bring you unto your own land.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:26 @ And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit will I put within you; and I will remove the heart of stone out of your body, and I will give you a heart of flesh.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:29 @ And I will save you from all kinds of your impurities; and I will call unto the corn, and increase it, and I will not lay famine upon you.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:30 @ And I will multiply the fruit of the trees, and the products of the field: in order that ye may receive no more reproach on account of famine among the nations.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:31 @ Then shall ye remember your ways that they were evil, and your doings that were not good; and ye shall loathe yourselves on account of your iniquities and on account of your abominations.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:32 @ Not for your sake do I this, saith the Lord Eternal, be it known unto you: be ashamed and confounded because of your ways, O house of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:33 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, On the day of my cleansing you from all your iniquities, when I cause the cities to be inhabited, and when the ruins are built up,

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:34 @ And when the desolate land is tilled, instead that it was a waste before the eyes of every passer by:

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:35 @ Then shall they say, This land, that was desolate, is become like the garden of ‘Eden; and the cities that were ruined, and desolate, and broken down, are become fortified, and inhabited.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:37 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Also in this will I yet suffer myself to be entreated of by the house of Israel, to do it for them, I will increase them with men like flocks.

lesserot@Ezekiel:37:2 @ And he caused me to pass by them all round about; and, behold, there were very many of them on the surface of the valley; and, lo, they were very dry.

lesserot@Ezekiel:37:3 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live! And I said, O Lord Eternal, thou alone knowest this.

lesserot@Ezekiel:37:23 @ Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, and with their detestable things, and with all their transgressions; but I will save them out of all their dwelling–places, wherein they have sinned, and I will cleanse them, and they shall be unto me for a people, and I will be to them for a God.

lesserot@Ezekiel:37:26 @ And I will make with them a covenant of peace, an everlasting covenant shall it be with them: and I will multiply them, and I will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore.

lesserot@Ezekiel:39:12 @ And the house of Israel shall be burying them, in order to cleanse the land, during seven months.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:6 @ Then came he unto the gate which looked in the direction toward the east, and went up its steps, and measured the threshold of the gate, one rod in breadth, and the other threshold one rod in breadth.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:18 @ And the pavement by the side of the gates was all along the whole length of the gates: this was the lower pavement.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:19 @ Then measured he the breadth from the front of the lower gate unto the front of the inner court, without, one hundred cubits, eastward and northward.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:20 @ And the gate of the outer court that looked in a northern direction, he measured after its length, and its breadth.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:22 @ And its windows, and its porches, and their palm–shaped capitals, were after the measure of the gate that looked in an eastern direction: and by seven steps did they go up unto it, and to its porches which were before them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:23 @ And the gates of the inner court were opposite the gates on the north, and on the east: and he measured from gate to gate one hundred cubits.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:38 @ And there was a chamber with its door by the door–posts of the gates, where they washed off the burnt–offerings.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:39 @ And in the porch of the gate were two tables on this side, and two tables on that side, to slaughter thereon the burnt–offerings and the sin–offerings and the trespass–offerings.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:5 @ After this he measured the wall of the house, six cubits; and the breadth of every side–chamber was four cubits, all round about the house on every side.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:6 @ And the side–chambers were one over another, three and thirty times; and they entered into the wall which was on the house for the side–chambers all round about, that they might be fastened on, but they were not fastened on the wall of the house.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:7 @ And as one wound upward it became continually wider for the side–chambers; for the row of chambers about the house went more and more upward round about the house; therefore was the breadth of the house greater upward: and so they ascended from the lowest chambers to the highest through the middle ones.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:8 @ And I saw the height of the house all round about: the foundations of the side–chambers were a full rod of six cubits under ground.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:9 @ The thickness of the wall, which was for the side–chambers without, was five cubits, as also the space which was left open by the row of the side–chambers that were on the house.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:11 @ And the doors of the side–chambers were on the open space, one door was in a northern direction, and another door on the south; and the breadth of the place that was left open was five cubits all round about.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:12 @ Now the building that was before the main wing on the west side was seventy cubits broad; and the wall of the building was five cubits thick round about, and its length, ninety cubits.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:14 @ Also the breadth in the front of the house, and of the main wing on the east, was one hundred cubits.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:15 @ And he measured the length of the building on the front side of the main wing which was behind it, and its corner–pillars on the one side and on the other side, one hundred cubits; and this included the inner temple, and the porches of the court;

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:16 @ The thresholds, and the narrow windows, and the corner–pillars were round about on their three sides: opposite the threshold there was a wainscoting of wood all round about, and so from the ground up to the windows; and the windows were covered.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:20 @ From the ground to the part above the door were the cherubim and the palm–trees made, and so on the wall of the temple.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:21 @ The temple had four–cornered door–posts, and the front of the holy of holies had the appearance as the appearance.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:22 @ The altar was of wood, three cubits high, and its length was two cubits; and its corners, and its top–piece, and its walls, were of wood: and he spoke unto me, This is the table that is before the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:23 @ And the temple and the holy of holies had two doors.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:25 @ And there were made on them, on the doors of the temple, cherubim and palm–trees, as they were made upon the walls; and thick wooden planks was upon the front of the porch without.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:26 @ And there were narrow windows and palm–trees on the one side and on the other side, on the sides of the porch, and on the side–chambers of the house, and the thick planks.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:4 @ And before the chambers was a walk of ten cubits in breadth toward the inner house, a way of one cubit; and their doors were toward the north.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:5 @ Now the upper chambers were shorter than the lowest and than the middle chambers of the building.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:6 @ For they were in three stories, but had not pillars like the pillars of the courts: therefore was something taken off the lowest and the middle ones from the ground.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:7 @ And the wall that was without alongside the chambers, toward the outer court in front of the chambers, was in its length fifty cubits.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:8 @ For the length of the chambers that were in the outer court was fifty cubits; and lo, in front of the temple was one hundred cubits.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:10 @ On the breadth of the wall of the court in an eastern direction before the main wing, and before the building, were chambers.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:11 @ And the way before them was of like appearance as that for the chambers which were on the north side, of the same length and the same breadth; and all their means of egress, and their arrangement, and their doors were of the like manner.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:12 @ And so also were the doors of the chambers that were on the south side, a door being on the head of the way, of the way directly before the wall on the east side, as one entereth into them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:13 @ And he said unto me, The north chambers and the south chambers which are in front of the main wing,––these are the holy chambers, where the priests that approach unto the Lord shall eat the most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy things, namely, the meat–offering, and the sin–offering, and the trespass–offering; for the place is holy.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:14 @ When the priests enter therein, then shall they not go out of the sanctuary into the outer court; but there shall they lay down their garments wherein they may have ministered; for they are holy: and they shall put on other garments, and shall then approach to which is for the people.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:15 @ Now when he had finished the measurings of the inner house, he led me forth by the way of the gate which looked in an eastern direction, and measured it all round about.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:20 @ On the four sides did he measure it by the wall that was all round about, five hundred rods in length, and in breadth five hundred, to make a separation between the holy place and the profane.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:2 @ And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east; and his voice was like a noise of many waters; and the earth gave light from his glory.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:3 @ And it was like the appearance of the vision which I had seen, yea, like the vision that I had seen when I came to destroy the city; and the visions were like the vision that I had seen by the river Kebar: and I fell upon my face.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:4 @ And the glory of the Lord came into the house by the way of the gate which was turned in an eastern direction.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:5 @ Then did the Spirit take me up, and bring me into the inner court: and, behold, the glory of the Lord filled the house.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:6 @ And I heard him speaking unto me out of the house; and a man was standing alongside of me.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:7 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, is the place of my throne, and the place of the soles of my feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel forever: and the house of Israel shall not defile any more my holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their lewdness, nor by the carcasses of their kings on their high–places.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:8 @ Inasmuch as they placed their threshold by my threshold, and their door–posts close by my door–posts, and the wall being only between me and them, and they defiled my holy name by their abominations which they committed; so that I made an end of them in my anger.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:9 @ Now will they have to put away their lewdness, and the carcasses of their kings, far from me, and I will dwell in the midst of them for ever.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:10 @ Thou, son of man, tell the house of Israel of the house, that they may be confounded because of their iniquities: and let them measure the outlines.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:11 @ And if they be confounded because of all that they have done: then let them know the form of the house, and its arrangements, and its means of egress, and its entrances, and all its forms, and all its statutes, and all its forms, and all its laws, and write them down before their eyes; that they may observe the whole of its form, and all its statutes, and carry them out.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:12 @ This is the law for the house, Upon the top of the mount shall its whole limit all round about be most holy: behold, this is the law for the house.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:13 @ And these are the measures of the altar in cubits, The cubit is a cubit and a hand–breadth; and the bottom shall be a cubit high, and a cubit broad, and its border on its edge round about shall be a span: and this shall be the outside of the altar.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:15 @ And the upper portion of the altar shall be four cubits; and from the upper surface of the altar and upward shall be the four horns.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:16 @ And the upper surface of the altar shall be twelve cubits long, by twelve broad, square on its four sides.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:18 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, thus hath said the Lord Eternal, These are the statutes of the altar on the day when it shall be finished, to offer thereon burnt–offerings, and to sprinkle thereon blood.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:19 @ And thou shalt give to the priests the Levites that are of the seed of Zadok, who approach unto me, saith the Lord Eternal, to minister unto me, a young bullock for a sin–offering.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:20 @ And thou shalt take of his blood, and put it on its four horns, and on the four corners of the projection, and upon the border round about; and thou shalt cleanse it and make an atonement for it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:21 @ And thou shalt take the bullock of the sin–offering, and some one shall burn him at an appointed place of the house, without the sanctuary.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:22 @ And on the second day shalt thou offer a he–goat without blemish for a sin–offering: and they shall cleanse the altar, as they did cleanse it with the bullock.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:23 @ When thou hast made an end of cleansing it, shalt thou offer a young bullock without blemish, and a ram out of the flock without blemish.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:24 @ And thou shalt bring them near before the Lord, and the priests shall throw salt upon them, and they shall offer them up as a burnt–offering unto the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:25 @ Seven days shalt thou prepare a goat for a sin–offering every day; and a young bullock, and a ram out of the flock, without blemish shall they prepare.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:27 @ And when these days are expired, it shall be, that on the eighth day, and thenceforward, the priests shall prepare upon the altar your burnt–offerings, and your peace–offerings: and I will accept you in favor, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:1 @ And he brought me back by the way of the outer gate of the sanctuary which looked toward the east: and it was locked.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:2 @ Then said the Lord unto me, This gate shall remain locked, it shall not be opened, and no man shall enter in by it; because the Lord, the God of Israel, hath entered in by it, therefore shall it remain locked.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:3 @ As for the prince, being the prince, he shall sit in it to eat bread before the Lord: by the way of the porch of that gate shall he enter, and by the way of the same shall he go out.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:4 @ Then brought he me by the way of the north gate before the house; and I looked, and, behold, the glory of the Lord filled the house of the Lord: and I fell upon my face.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:5 @ And the Lord said unto me, Son of man, direct thy mind, and see with thy eyes, and hear with thy ears all that I am speaking with thee concerning all the ordinances of the house of the Lord, and of all its laws; and direct thy mind to the entrance of the house, with every place of egress of the sanctuary.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:6 @ And thou shalt say to the rebellious, to the house of Israel, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Ye have done enough with all your abominations, O house of Israel!

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:7 @ In your having brought the sons of the stranger, uncircumcised in heart, and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in my sanctuary, to pollute it, even my house, while you were offering my food, the fat and the blood: so that they broke my covenant because of all your abominations.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:8 @ And ye have not kept the charge of my holy things; but ye have set as keepers of my charge in my sanctuary at your own pleasure.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:9 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, No son of the stranger, uncircumcised in heart, or uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my sanctuary, of all the sons of the stranger that are in the midst of the children of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:11 @ And they shall be in my sanctuary, servants, appointed to watch at the gates of the house, and to be servants for the house: these are they that shall slay the burnt–offerings and the sacrifices for the people, and they shall stand before them to do the service for them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:12 @ Because that they used to serve them before their idols, and have been unto the house of Israel as a stumbling–block of iniquity; therefore have I lifted up my hand against them, saith the Lord Eternal, and they shall bear their iniquity;

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:13 @ And they shall not come near unto me, to officiate as priests unto me, nor to come near to any of my holy things, to the most holy things; but they shall bear their shame, yea, for their abominations which they have committed.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:14 @ And I will appoint them to be keepers of the charge of the house, for all the service thereof, and for all that shall be done therein.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:15 @ But the priests the Levites, the sons of Zadok, that kept the charge of my sanctuary when the children of Israel went astray from me,––these are they that shall come near unto me to minister unto me, and they shall stand before me to offer unto me the fat and the blood, saith the Lord Eternal:

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:17 @ And it shall come to pass, that, when they enter in at the gates of the inner court, they shall clothe themselves with linen garments; and there shall no wool come upon them, when they minister in the gates of the inner court, and within the house.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:19 @ And when they go forth into the outer court, into the outer court to the people: then shall they put off their garments wherein they have ministered, and they shall lay them down in the holy chambers; and they shall put on other garments, and they shall not mingle among the people with their garments.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:21 @ And wine shall none of the priests drink when they enter into the inner court.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:22 @ And a widow, or one that is divorced from her husband shall they not take to themselves as wives; but only virgins of the seed of the house of Israel; but whatever widow it may be, the priests may take.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:23 @ And my people shall they teach the difference between the holy and profane, and that between the unclean and the clean shall they make known unto them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:27 @ Then shall he on the day that he cometh into the sanctuary, into the inner court, to minister in the sanctuary, offer his sin–offering, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:29 @ The meat–offering, and the sin–offering, and the trespass–offering––these shall they eat; and every devoted thing in Israel shall belong to them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:30 @ And the first of all kinds of first–fruits of all, and every kind of heave–offering of every thing of all your heave–offerings, shall belong to the priests; and the first of your dough shall you give to the priest, to cause a blessing to rest on thy house.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:31 @ Any thing that hath died of itself, or that is torn, whether it be fowl or beast, shall the priests not eat.

lesserot@Ezekiel:45:1 @ And when ye divide the land by lot for an inheritance, shall ye offer an oblation unto the Lord, as a holy portion of the land, five and twenty thousand rods in length, and in breadth ten thousand. This shall be holy in all its extent round about.

lesserot@Ezekiel:45:2 @ Of this there shall be for the sanctuary five hundred by five hundred, square round about; and fifty cubits as an open space for it round about.

lesserot@Ezekiel:45:3 @ And of this measure shalt thou measure, in length five and twenty thousand, and in breadth ten thousand: and in it shall be the sanctuary the holy of holies.

lesserot@Ezekiel:45:4 @ The holy portion of the land shall it be, for the priests the ministers of the sanctuary shall it be, who come near to minister unto the Lord; and it shall be unto them a place for houses, and a holy place for the sanctuary.

lesserot@Ezekiel:45:5 @ And five and twenty thousand in length, and ten thousand in breadth, shall also belong unto the Levites, the servants of the house, for themselves, as a possession, with twenty chambers.

lesserot@Ezekiel:45:6 @ And as the possession of the city shall ye assign five thousand rods broad, and five and twenty thousand long, alongside the holy oblation: unto the whole house of Israel shall it belong.

lesserot@Ezekiel:45:7 @ And the prince shall have that on the one side and on the other side of the holy oblation, and of the possession of the city, in front of the holy oblation, and in front of the possession of the city, on the west side westward, and on the east side eastward; and in length alongside one of the portions, both on the west border and on the east border.

lesserot@Ezekiel:45:8 @ As landed property shall it be his possession in Israel: and my princes shall no more wrong my people; but the land shall they give to the house of Israel according to their tribes.

lesserot@Ezekiel:45:9 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Ye have done enough wrong, O princes of Israel: remove violence and robbery, and execute justice and righteousness; take away your exactions from my people, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:45:11 @ The ephah and the bath shall contain the same quantity, that the bath may contain the tenth part of a chomer, and the ephah the tenth part of a chomer: after the chomer shall the measure of contents be.

lesserot@Ezekiel:45:13 @ This is the heave–offering that ye shall offer; The sixth part of an ephah of a chomer of wheat; and ye shall give the sixth part of an ephah of a chomer of barley;

lesserot@Ezekiel:45:14 @ And the fixed portion of oil shall be after the bath of oil, the tenth part of a bath out of the cor, ten baths reckoned to the chomer; for ten baths are a chomer;

lesserot@Ezekiel:46:21 @ Then did he lead me forth into the outer court, and caused me to pass along the four corners of the court; and, behold, in every corner of the court there was a court.

lesserot@Ezekiel:46:22 @ In the four corners of the court there were uncovered courts of forty cubits in length and thirty in breadth: there was one measure for all these four in the corners.

lesserot@Ezekiel:46:23 @ And there was a shelf of masonry round about in them, round about all these four, and it was furnished with hearths for boiling under the shelves round about.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:2 @ Then did he bring me out by the way of the gate northwards and led me about the way without unto the outer gate by the way that looked eastward: and, behold, the water was running on the right side.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:6 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen this: Then did he lead me, and caused me to return to the bank of the stream.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:7 @ Now when I returned, behold, there were at the banks of the stream very many trees, on the one side and on the other.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:10 @ And it shall come to pass, that the fishers shall stand by it; from ‘En–gedi even unto ‘En–’eglayim, there shall be places for the spreading out of nets: after their various kinds shall the fish thereof be, like the fish of the great sea, exceedingly many.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:12 @ And by the stream upon its banks, on this side and on that side, shall grow up all kinds of trees for food, the leaves of which shall not fade, and the fruit of which shall not come to an end, every month shall they bring forth new ripe fruit; because its water is that which issueth out of the sanctuary; and their fruit shall serve for food, and their leaves for remedies.

lesserot@Ezekiel:47:13 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, This shall be the boundary, whereby ye shall divide out the land unto the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph shall have two portions.

lesserot@Daniel:1:1 @ In the third year of the reign of Jehoyakim the king of Judah came Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon unto Jerusalem, and besieged it.

lesserot@Daniel:1:2 @ And the Lord gave up into his hand Yehoyakim the king of Judah, with part of the vessels of the house of God: and he brought them into the land of Shin’ar into the house of his god, namely, he brought the vessels into the treasure–house of his god.

lesserot@Daniel:1:3 @ And the king said unto Ashpenas, the chief of his eunuchs, that he should bring out of the children of Israel, and of the royal seed, and of the nobles,

lesserot@Daniel:1:4 @ lads in whom there should be no kind of blemish, but who should be handsome in appearance, and intelligent in all wisdom, and acquainted with knowledge, and understanding science, and such as should have the ability to serve in the king’s palace, and that these should be taught the learning and the language of the Chaldeans.

lesserot@Daniel:1:5 @ And the king ordered for them a daily provision for its day of the king’s food, and of the wine which he drank, and to educate them three years, so that at the end thereof they should serve before the king.

lesserot@Daniel:1:6 @ Now there were among these of the children of Judah, Daniel, Chananyah, Mishael, and ‘Azaryah.

lesserot@Daniel:1:7 @ And the chief of the eunuchs assigned them names; and he assigned to Daniel the name of Belteshazzar; and to Chananyah, of Shadrach; and to Mishael, of Meshach; and to ‘Azaryah, of ‘Abed–nego.

lesserot@Daniel:1:8 @ But Daniel resolved in his heart that he would not defile himself with the food of the king, nor with the wine which he drank: and therefore he requested of the chief of the eunuchs that he might not need to defile himself.

lesserot@Daniel:1:9 @ And God gave Daniel kindness and mercy before the chief of the eunuchs.

lesserot@Daniel:1:10 @ And the chief of the eunuchs said unto Daniel, I fear my lord the king, who hath ordered your food and your drink; for why should he see your face sadder looking than that of the lads who are of your age? and ye would thus endanger my head with the king.

lesserot@Daniel:1:11 @ Then said Daniel to the steward whom the chief of the eunuchs had given charge over Daniel, Chananyah, Mishael, and ‘Azaryah,

lesserot@Daniel:1:13 @ And then let our countenances be looked at before thee, and the countenance of the lads that eat the food of the king: and as thou mayest see, so deal with thy servants.

lesserot@Daniel:1:15 @ And at the end of ten days their countenances appeared better and fuller in flesh than all the lads who ate the food of the king.

lesserot@Daniel:1:18 @ And at the end of the days which the king had said that they should be presented, the chief of the eunuchs presented them before Nebuchadnezzar.

lesserot@Daniel:1:20 @ And in every matter of wise understanding, which the king required of them, he found them ten times superior above all the magicians and astrologers that were in all his kingdom.

lesserot@Daniel:1:21 @ And Daniel continued even unto the first year of king Cyrus.

lesserot@Daniel:2:1 @ And in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams, whereat his spirit was troubled, and his sleep that was upon him was gone.

lesserot@Daniel:2:8 @ The king answered and said, I know of a certainty that ye wish to gain time, because ye see the decree is firmly resolved on by me:

lesserot@Daniel:2:10 @ The Chaldeans answered before the king, and said, There is not a man upon the habitable earth that can tell the king’s matter: wherefore no mighty and powerful king ever hath asked such a thing of any magician, or astrologer, or Chaldean.

lesserot@Daniel:2:12 @ For all this cause the king became angry, and very furious; and he commanded to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.

lesserot@Daniel:2:14 @ Then made Daniel representations with intelligence and prudence to Aryoch the captain of the king’s guard, who was gone forth to slay the wise men of Babylon.

lesserot@Daniel:2:16 @ But Daniel went in, and requested of the king that he would give him time, that he might tell the interpretation to the king.

lesserot@Daniel:2:18 @ In order that they might pray for mercy of the God of heaven concerning this secret: so that Daniel and his companions might not be destroyed with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.

lesserot@Daniel:2:19 @ Thereupon was the secret revealed unto Daniel in a vision of the night. Then did Daniel bless the God of heaven.

lesserot@Daniel:2:20 @ Daniel commenced and said, May the name of God be blessed from eternity and to all eternity; for wisdom and might are his;

lesserot@Daniel:2:23 @ To thee, O God of my father, do I give thanks, and I praise thee, who hast given me wisdom and might, and because thou hast made known unto me what we prayed for of thee; for thou hast made known unto us the king’s matter.

lesserot@Daniel:2:24 @ Therefore did Daniel go in unto Aryoch, whom the king had ordered to destroy the wise men of Babylon, He went and said thus unto him, the wise men of Babylon must thou not destroy: bring me before the king, and I will tell unto the king the interpretation.

lesserot@Daniel:2:25 @ Then did Aryoch bring Daniel before the king in haste, and thus he said unto him, Here have I found a man out of the children of the exiles of Judah, who will make known unto the king the interpretation.

lesserot@Daniel:2:27 @ Daniel answered in the presence of the king, and said, The secret which the king hath demanded no wise men, astrologers, magicians, or soothsayers, can tell unto the king;

lesserot@Daniel:2:28 @ But there is a God in heaven that revealeth secrets, and he hath made known to king Nebuchadnezzar what is to be in the latter days. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy couch, were these.

lesserot@Daniel:2:29 @ As for thee, O king, thy thoughts, when thou wast on thy couch, rose concerning what is to come to pass hereafter; and the Revealer of secrets hath made known to thee what is to come to pass.

lesserot@Daniel:2:30 @ But as for me, this secret hath not been revealed to me because of any wisdom that is in me more than in all other living; but for the sake that men might make known the interpretation to the king, and that thou mightest understand the thoughts of thy heart.

lesserot@Daniel:2:32 @ As regardeth this image, its head was of fine gold, its breast and its arms were of silver, its belly and its thighs of copper,

lesserot@Daniel:2:33 @ Its legs of iron, its feet part of them of iron and part of them of clay.

lesserot@Daniel:2:34 @ Thou didst look on till the moment that a stone tore itself loose, not through hands, and it struck the image upon its feet that were of iron and clay, and ground them to pieces.

lesserot@Daniel:2:35 @ Then were the iron, the clay, the copper, the silver, and the gold ground up together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshing–floors; and the wind carried them away, that no trace was found of them; and the stone that had stricken the image became a mighty mountain, and filled the whole earth.

lesserot@Daniel:2:37 @ Thou, O king, art a king of kings, to whom the God of heaven hath given kingdom, power, and strength, and honor:

lesserot@Daniel:2:38 @ And wheresoever the children of men dwell, hath he given the beasts of the field and the fowls of the heaven into thy hand, and hath made thee ruler over them all. Thou art the head of gold.

lesserot@Daniel:2:39 @ And after thee there will arise another kingdom inferior to thee; and another third kingdom of copper, which will bear rule over all the earth.

lesserot@Daniel:2:41 @ And that thou sawest the feet and toes, and part of them of potter’s clay, and part of them of iron, that it will be a divided kingdom, although there will be in it of the strength of the iron; forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mingled with miry clay.

lesserot@Daniel:2:42 @ And as the toes of the feet were part of them of iron, and part of them of clay: so will the kingdom be partly strong and partly brittle.

lesserot@Daniel:2:43 @ And whereas thou sawest iron mingled with miry clay: so will they mingle themselves among the seed of men; but they will not cleave firmly one to another, even as iron cannot be mingled with clay.

lesserot@Daniel:2:44 @ But in the days of these kings will the God of heaven set up a kingdom: which shall to eternity not be destroyed, and its rule shall not be transferred to any other people; it will grind up and make an end of all these kingdoms, while it will itself endure for ever.

lesserot@Daniel:2:45 @ Whereas thou sawest that out of the mountain a stone tore itself loose, not through hands, and that it ground up the iron, the copper, the clay, the silver, and the gold: the great God hath made known to the king what is to come to pass after this. And the dream is reliable, and its interpretation certain.

lesserot@Daniel:2:46 @ Then did king Nebuchadnezzar fall upon his face, and he bowed down to Daniel, and ordered that they should offer an oblation and sweet odors unto him.

lesserot@Daniel:2:47 @ The king answered unto Daniel, and said, Of a truth it is, that your God is the God of gods, and the Lord of kings, and the revealer of secrets; because thou hast been able to reveal this secret.

lesserot@Daniel:2:48 @ Then did the king elevate Daniel, and gave him many great presents, and made him ruler over the whole province of Babylon, and chief of the superintendents over all the wise men of Babylon.

lesserot@Daniel:2:49 @ Then requested Daniel of the king, that he might appoint Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego, over the public service of the province of Babylon; but Daniel remained in the gate of the king.

lesserot@Daniel:3:1 @ King Nebuchadnezzar made an image of gold, the height of which was sixty cubits, and the breadth of which was six cubits: he set it up in the valley of Dura, in the province of Babylon.

lesserot@Daniel:3:2 @ And king Nebuchadnezzar sent to assemble lieutenants, the superintendents, and the governors, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, those learned in the law, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image which king Nebuchadnezzar had set up.

lesserot@Daniel:3:3 @ Thereupon were assembled the lieutenants, the superintendents, and the governors, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, those learned in the law, and all the rulers of the provinces unto the dedication of the image that king Nebuchadnezzar had set up; and they stood opposite to the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up.

lesserot@Daniel:3:5 @ That at the time when ye do hear the sound of the cornet, flute, guitar, harp, psaltery, bagpipe, and all kinds of music, ye shall fall down and bow yourselves to the golden image which king Nebuchadnezzar hath set up:

lesserot@Daniel:3:6 @ And whoso doth not fall down and bow himself shall in the same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.

lesserot@Daniel:3:7 @ Therefore at the same time, when all the people heard the sound of the cornet, flute, guitar, harp, psaltery, and all kinds of music, all the people, the nations, and the languages fell down bowing themselves to the golden image which king Nebuchadnezzar had set up.

lesserot@Daniel:3:10 @ Thou, O king, hadst made a decree, that every man that should hear the sound of the cornet, flute, guitar, harp, psaltery, and bagpipe, and all kinds of music, should fall down and bow himself to the golden image;

lesserot@Daniel:3:11 @ And that whoso should not fall down and bow himself should be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.

lesserot@Daniel:3:12 @ There are certain Jewish men whom thou hast appointed over the public service of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego: these men, O king, have not paid any regard to thee; thy god they do not worship, and to the golden image which thou hast set up they do not bow themselves.

lesserot@Daniel:3:14 @ Nebuchadnezzar commenced and said unto them, Is it out of disrespect, O Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego? My god ye do not worship, and to the golden image which I have set up ye do not bow yourselves?

lesserot@Daniel:3:15 @ Now then if ye be ready at the time when ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, guitar, psaltery, and bagpipe, and all kinds of music, to fall down and bow yourselves to the image which I have made,; but if ye bow yourselves not, ye shall be cast in the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace: and who is the God that can deliver you out of my hand?

lesserot@Daniel:3:17 @ Behold, there is our God whom we worship, he is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace: and out of thy hand, O king, will he deliver us.

lesserot@Daniel:3:19 @ Then was Nebuchadnezzar filled with fury, and the form of his countenance was changed because of Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego; he commenced and ordered that they should heat the furnace thoroughly seven times more than it was wont to be heated.

lesserot@Daniel:3:21 @ Then were these men bound in their mantles, their under–garments, and their turbans, and their other garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.

lesserot@Daniel:3:22 @ Now, because the king’s command was so urgent, and the furnace exceedingly heated, the flame of the fire slew those men that carried up Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego.

lesserot@Daniel:3:23 @ And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.

lesserot@Daniel:3:24 @ Then was king Nebuchadnezzar astonished, and he rose up in haste, commenced, and said unto his counsellors, Did we not cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the king, Certainly, O king.

lesserot@Daniel:3:25 @ He answered and said, Lo, I see four men unbound, walking in the midst of the fire, and there is no injury on them; and the appearance of the fourth is like a son of the gods.

lesserot@Daniel:3:26 @ Then came Nebuchadnezzar near to the door of the burning fiery furnace, commenced, and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego, ye servants of the most high God, step forth, and come hither. Then stepped Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego forth out of the midst of the fire.

lesserot@Daniel:3:27 @ And the lieutenants, superintendents, and governors, and the king’s counsellors, being assembled together, saw these men, over whose bodies the fire had had no power, and the hair of whose head was not singed, whose mantles were not changed, and on whom there was not come the smell of fire.

lesserot@Daniel:3:28 @ Then commenced Nebuchadnezzar, and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that had trusted in him, and had transgressed the king’s word, and yielded up their bodies, that they might not worship no bow themselves to any god, except their own God.

lesserot@Daniel:3:29 @ Therefore do I make a decree, That every people, nation, and language, that may speak any thing disrespectful against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be changed into a dunghill; because there is no other God that can deliver like this one.

lesserot@Daniel:3:30 @ Then did the king promote Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego, in the province of Babylon.

lesserot@Daniel:5:1 @ King Belshazzar prepared a great feast for a thousand of his lords, and before these thousand did he drink wine.

lesserot@Daniel:5:2 @ Belshazzar ordered, through the counsel of the wine, to bring in the golden and silver vessels which his father Nebuchadnezzar had taken away out of the temple which was in Jerusalem: that the king, and his lords, his wives, and his concubines, might drink therefrom.

lesserot@Daniel:5:3 @ Then they brought in the golden vessels that were taken away out of the temple of the house of God which was at Jerusalem; and the king, and his lords, his wives, and his concubines, drank from them.

lesserot@Daniel:5:4 @ They drank wine, and praised their gods of gold, and of silver, of copper, of iron, of wood, and of stone.

lesserot@Daniel:5:5 @ At that same hour came forth fingers of a man’s hand, and wrote opposite to the chandelier upon the plaster of the wall of the king’s palace: and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote.

lesserot@Daniel:5:6 @ Then was the king’s color changed, and his thoughts troubled him: so that the bands of his loins were loosed, and his knees knocked one against the other.

lesserot@Daniel:5:7 @ the king called with might to bring in the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. The king commenced, and said to the wise men of Babylon, Whatsoever man will read this writing, and tell me its interpretation, shall be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall rule as the third in the kingdom.

lesserot@Daniel:5:8 @ Then came in all the wise men of the king; but they were not able to read the writing, nor to make its interpretation known to the king.

lesserot@Daniel:5:10 @ the queen in consequence of the words of the king and of his lords came into the banquet–house; the queen commenced and said, O king, live for ever; let thy thoughts not trouble thee, nor let thy color be changed:

lesserot@Daniel:5:11 @ There is a man in thy kingdom in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of thy father enlightenment and intelligence and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, were found in him: and king Nebuchadnezzar thy father appointed him chief of the magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans, and soothsayers:––yes, thy father, O king.––

lesserot@Daniel:5:12 @ Forasmuch as a superior spirit, and knowledge, and intelligence, interpreting of dreams, and solving of riddles, and of untying knotty, were found in him, in Daniel, to whom the king assigned the name of Belteshazzar: now let Daniel be called, and he will tell the interpretation.

lesserot@Daniel:5:13 @ Then was Daniel brought in before the king: the king commenced and said unto Daniel, Art thou Daniel, who art of the children of the exiles of Judah, whom the king my father brought out of Judah?

lesserot@Daniel:5:14 @ And I have heard of thee, that the spirit of the gods is in thee, and that enlightenment and intelligence and superior wisdom are found in thee.

lesserot@Daniel:5:15 @ And now the wise men, the astrologers, had been brought before me, that they should read this writing, and make known unto me its interpretation; but they were not able to tell the interpretation of the matter.

lesserot@Daniel:5:16 @ But I have truly heard concerning thee, that thou art able to give interpretations, and untie knotty: now if thou art able to read the writing, and make known to me its interpretation, thou shalt be clothed with purple, with a chain of gold about thy neck, and shalt rule as the third in the kingdom.

lesserot@Daniel:5:19 @ And because of the greatness that he had given unto him, all people, nations, and languages trembled and shook before him: whom he pleased he slew; and whom he pleased he kept alive; and whom he pleased he lifted up; and whom he pleased he brought low.

lesserot@Daniel:5:20 @ But, when his heart was lifted up, and his spirit hardened to deal presumptuously, he was cast down from the throne of his kingdom, and his dignity did they take from him;

lesserot@Daniel:5:21 @ And from the sons of men was he driven forth, and his heart became equal with the beasts, and with the wild asses was his dwelling; they suffered him to eat herbs like oxen, and with the dew of heaven was his body made wet: till he acknowledged that the most high God ruleth over the kingdom of men, and that he appointeth over it whomsoever he pleaseth.

lesserot@Daniel:5:23 @ But against the Lord of heaven hast thou lifted thyself up; and the vessels of his house have they brought before thee, and thou, and thy lords, thy wives, and thy concubines, have drunk wine from them; and the gods of silver, and gold, of copper, iron, wood, and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor know, hast thou praised; and the God in whose hand thy soul is, and whose are all thy ways, hast thou not glorified:

lesserot@Daniel:5:24 @ Thereupon was sent from before him the part of the hand, and this writing was noted down.

lesserot@Daniel:5:26 @ This the interpretation of the matter: M’ne, God hath numbered thy kingdom, and made an end of it.

lesserot@Daniel:5:29 @ Then gave Belshazzar the order, and they clothed Daniel with purple, with a chain of gold about his neck, and they made a proclamation concerning him, that he should rule as the third in the kingdom.

lesserot@Daniel:5:30 @ In that very night was Belshazzar the king of the Chaldeans slain.

lesserot@Daniel:7:1 @ In the first year of Belshazzar the king of Babylon, Daniel saw a dream and the visions of his head while on his couch: afterward he wrote down the dream, relating the principal things.

lesserot@Daniel:7:2 @ Daniel commenced and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of heaven blew fiercely on the great sea.

lesserot@Daniel:7:6 @ After this I looked, and lo there was another, like a leopard; and it had four wings of a bird on its back: the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given unto it.

lesserot@Daniel:7:8 @ I looked carefully at the horns, and, behold, another little horn came up between them, and three of the first horns were plucked up by the roots before the same; and, behold, there were eyes like the eyes of man in this horn, with a mouth speaking presumptuous things.

lesserot@Daniel:7:9 @ I was looking until chairs were set down, and an Ancient of days seated himself, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of whose head was like clean wool; his chair was like flames of fire, and his wheels like fire that burnt;

lesserot@Daniel:7:10 @ A stream of fire issued and came forth from before him; thousand times thousands ministered unto him, and myriad times myriads stood before him: they sat down to hold judgment, and the books were opened.

lesserot@Daniel:7:11 @ I looked then, because of the sound of the presumptuous words which the horn had spoken,––I looked till the beast was slain, and its body destroyed, and given over to the burning fire.

lesserot@Daniel:7:12 @ But concerning the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away: yet a longer duration of life was given unto them until the time and period.

lesserot@Daniel:7:13 @ I looked in the nightly visions, and, behold, with the clouds of heaven came one like a son of man, and he attained as far as the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him.

lesserot@Daniel:7:15 @ My spirit was deeply shaken within me, Daniel, in the midst of its tenement, and the visions of my head troubled me.

lesserot@Daniel:7:16 @ I came near unto one of those that stood by, and asked him something certain concerning all this: and he spoke to me, and made known unto me the interpretation of the things.

lesserot@Daniel:7:17 @ These great beasts, of which there are four, are four kings, who are to arise on the earth.

lesserot@Daniel:7:18 @ But the saints of the Most High will obtain the kingdom, and possess the kingdom to eternity, even to all eternity for ever.

lesserot@Daniel:7:19 @ Then I desired what is certain concerning the fourth beast, which was different from all these others, exceedingly dreadful, whose teeth were of iron, and whose nails of copper; which devoured, ground up, and stamped with its feet what was left;

lesserot@Daniel:7:20 @ And concerning the ten horns that were in its head, and concerning the other which came up, and before which three fell down, even concerning that horn which had eyes, and a mouth which spoke presumptuous things, and whose appearance was greater than that of its companions.

lesserot@Daniel:7:22 @ Until the Ancient of days came, and procured justice unto the saints of the Most High; and the time came and the saints took possession of the kingdom.

lesserot@Daniel:7:24 @ And the ten horns out of this kingdom that ten kings will arise; and another will rise after them, and he will be different from the first, and three kings will he bring low.

lesserot@Daniel:7:25 @ And he will speak words against the Most High, and the saints of the Most High will he oppress, and think to change the festivals and the law: and they will be given up into his hand until a time and times and half a time.

lesserot@Daniel:7:27 @ And the kingdom and the dominion, and the power over the kingdoms under the whole heaven, will be given to the people of the saints of the Most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all governments are to worship and obey him.

lesserot@Daniel:7:28 @ Thus far is the end of the speech. As for me Daniel, my reflections troubled me greatly, and my color was changed on me; but I kept the speech in my heart.

lesserot@Daniel:8:1 @ In the third year of the reign of king Belshazzar a vision appeared unto me, to me Daniel, after that which had appeared unto me at the first.

lesserot@Daniel:8:2 @ And I saw in the vision––and it came to pass, in my seeing, that I was at Shushan the capital, which is in the province of ‘Elam; ––and I saw in the vision, as though I was by the river Ulai.

lesserot@Daniel:8:4 @ I saw the ram butting westward, and northward, and southward; so that all the beasts could not stand before him, and no one was there to deliver out of his hand: and he did according to his will, and became great.

lesserot@Daniel:8:5 @ And as I was looking attentively, behold, there came a shaggy, he–goat from the west over the face of the whole earth, without touching the ground; and the goat had a sightly large horn between his eyes.

lesserot@Daniel:8:7 @ And I saw him coming close unto the ram, and he became bitterly enraged against him, and he struck the ram, and broke his two horns: and there was no power in the ram to stand forward before him: and he cast him down to the ground, and stamped upon him; and there was no one to deliver the ram out of his hand.

lesserot@Daniel:8:8 @ And the shaggy he–goat became very great: but when he was grown strong, the great horn was broken; and there came up four slightly large ones in its place toward the four winds of heaven.

lesserot@Daniel:8:9 @ And out of them came forth a little horn, which became exceedingly great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the glorious land.

lesserot@Daniel:8:10 @ And it became great, even up to the host of the heavens; and it cast down to the ground some of the host and of the stars, and trod them under foot.

lesserot@Daniel:8:11 @ Yea, it magnified itself even up to the prince of the host, and by it the continual sacrifice was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.

lesserot@Daniel:8:12 @ And the host is given up together with the continual sacrifice, by reason of transgression: and it casteth down the truth to the ground, and it doth, and is prosperous.

lesserot@Daniel:8:15 @ And it came to pass, when I, even I Daniel, saw the vision, and sought for understanding, that, behold, there was standing opposite to me something like the appearance of a man.

lesserot@Daniel:8:16 @ And I heard the voice of a man between the Ulai, and it called, and said, Gabriel, cause this one to understand this appearance.

lesserot@Daniel:8:17 @ So he came close to where I stood: and when he came, I was terrified, and I fell upon my face; but he said unto me, Mark it well, O son of man; because for the time of the end is the vision.

lesserot@Daniel:8:19 @ And he said, Behold, I will make known unto thee what is to be at the last end of the indignation; for it is for the appointed time of the end.

lesserot@Daniel:8:20 @ The ram that thou hast seen, him with the two horns, the kings of Media and Persia.

lesserot@Daniel:8:21 @ And the shaggy he–goat is the king of Javan; and the great horn which is between his eyes is the first king.

lesserot@Daniel:8:22 @ But that it was broken, and that four sprung up in its stead, four kingdoms will spring up out of the nation, but not with his power.

lesserot@Daniel:8:23 @ And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors have filled their measure of guilt, there will arise a king of an impudent face, and understanding deep schemes.

lesserot@Daniel:8:24 @ And his power will be mighty, but not by his own power; and he will destroy wonderfully, and will prosper while he doth; and he will destroy very many and the people of the saints.

lesserot@Daniel:8:25 @ And through his intelligence, and because he prospereth, is craftiness in his hand; and in his heart will he magnify himself, and in peace will he destroy many: he will also stand up against the Prince of princes; but without a human hand will he be broken.

lesserot@Daniel:8:26 @ And the appearance of the evening and the morning which was spoken of is true: but do thou keep the vision closed up;

lesserot@Daniel:8:27 @ And I Daniel grieved, and was sick several days; afterward I rose up, and did the king’s business; and I was depressed because of the appearance; but no one observed it.

lesserot@Daniel:9:1 @ In the first year of Darius the son of Achashverosh, of the seed of the Medes, who was made king over the kingdom of the Chaldeans,

lesserot@Daniel:9:2 @ In the first year of his reign, I Daniel searched in the books for understanding concerning the number of the years whereof the word of the Lord had come to Jeremiah the prophet, that he would let pass full seventy years over the ruins of Jerusalem.

lesserot@Daniel:9:6 @ Nor have we hearkened unto thy servants the prophets, who spoke in thy name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.

lesserot@Daniel:9:7 @ Thine, O Lord, is the righteousness, but unto us belongeth the shame of face, as it is this day,––to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all Israel, those that are near, and those that are far off, through all the countries whither thou hast driven them, because of their trespass which they have trespassed against thee.

lesserot@Daniel:9:8 @ O Lord, to us belongeth the shame of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers; because we have sinned against thee.

lesserot@Daniel:9:10 @ And we have not obeyed the voice of the Lord our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us through means of his servants the prophets.

lesserot@Daniel:9:11 @ Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, and have departed so as not to obey thy voice: therefore was poured out over us the curse, with the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God; because we had sinned against him.

lesserot@Daniel:9:13 @ As it is written in the law of Moses; all this evil came over us: yet offered we not any entreaty before the Lord our God, to return from our iniquities, and to become intelligent in thy truth.

lesserot@Daniel:9:14 @ Therefore did the Lord watch over the evil, and he brought it upon us; for the Lord our God is righteous because of all his deeds which he hath done; but we have not obeyed his voice.

lesserot@Daniel:9:15 @ And now, O Lord our God, who hast brought forth thy people out of the land of Egypt with a strong hand, and hast made thyself a name, as it is this day: we have sinned, we have done wickedly.

lesserot@Daniel:9:16 @ O Lord, according to all thy righteousness, I beseech thee, let thy anger and thy fury be turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain; because through our sins, and through the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy people are become a reproach to all who are round about us.

lesserot@Daniel:9:17 @ And now listen, O our God, to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplications, and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary which is desolate, for the sake of the Lord.

lesserot@Daniel:9:18 @ Incline, O my God, thy ear, and hear; open thy eyes, and look on our desolations, and the city whereupon thy name is called: for not on our acts of righteousness do we present humbly our supplications before thee, but on thy great mercies.

lesserot@Daniel:9:20 @ And while I was yet speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication humbly before the Lord my God because of the holy mountain of my God:

lesserot@Daniel:9:21 @ Yea, while I was yet speaking in prayer, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, came, flying swiftly, near me about the time of the evening oblation.

lesserot@Daniel:9:23 @ At the beginning of thy supplications the word went forth, and I am come to tell it; for thou art greatly beloved: therefore understand the matter, and have understanding of the appearance.

lesserot@Daniel:9:24 @ Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to close up the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to atone for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most holy thing.

lesserot@Daniel:9:25 @ Know therefore and comprehend, that from the going forth of the word to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the anointed the prince will be seven weeks: and during sixty and two weeks will it be again built with streets and ditches, even in the pressure of the times.

lesserot@Daniel:9:26 @ And after the sixty and two weeks will an anointed one be cut off without a successor to follow him: and the city and the sanctuary will the people of the prince that is coming destroy; but his end will come in a violent overthrow; but until the end of the war devastations are decreed.

lesserot@Daniel:9:27 @ And he will make a strong covenant with the many for one week; and in the half of the week will he cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and this because of the prevalence of the abominations which bringeth devastation, and until destruction and what is decreed shall be poured out upon the waster.

lesserot@Daniel:10:1 @ In the third year of Cyrus the king of Persia a word was revealed unto Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the word is the truth, but the time appointed is long off: and he noted the word, and took notice of it in the appearance.

lesserot@Daniel:10:4 @ And on the four and twentieth day of the first month, while I was by the side of the great river, which is Chiddekel,

lesserot@Daniel:10:5 @ I lifted up my eyes, and looked, and behold there was a certain man clothed in linen, and his loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz;

lesserot@Daniel:10:6 @ And his body was also like the chrysolite, and his face, like the appearance of lightning, and his eyes were like torches of fire, and his arms and his feet, like the color of polished copper, and the sound of his words was like the noise of a multitude.

lesserot@Daniel:10:9 @ Then heard I the sound of his words; and as I heard the sound of his words, I sank in amazement on my face, with my face toward the ground.

lesserot@Daniel:10:10 @ And, behold, a hand touched me, and it moved me upon my knees and the palms of my hands.

lesserot@Daniel:10:12 @ And he said unto me, Fear not, Daniel; for from the first day that thou didst set thy heart to obtain understanding, and to fast before thy God, were thy words heard: and I am come in consequence of thy words.

lesserot@Daniel:10:13 @ But the prince of the kingdom of Persia stood up against me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I obtained the victory there with the kings of Persia.

lesserot@Daniel:10:16 @ And, behold, something like the form of the sons of men touched my lips; and I opened my mouth, and I spoke, and said unto him that stood opposite to me, O my lord, because of the appearance my pains suddenly overcame me, and I have retained no strength.

lesserot@Daniel:10:17 @ And how shall the servant of this my lord be able to speak with this my lord? And as for me, from that moment there remained no strength in me, and no breath was left in me.

lesserot@Daniel:10:18 @ Then there touched me again something like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me;

lesserot@Daniel:10:20 @ Then said he, Knowest thou wherefore I am come unto thee? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia; and as I am going forth, lo, the prince of Javan is coming.

lesserot@Daniel:10:21 @ Nevertheless will I tell thee what is noted down in the writing of truth:––and there is none that holdeth with me against those, except Michael your prince.

lesserot@Daniel:11:1 @ And I in the first year of Darius the Mede had my station to assist and to protect him.

lesserot@Daniel:11:2 @ And now will I tell thee the truth. Behold, there will stand up yet three kings of Persia: and the fourth will obtain far greater riches than all: and when he is strong through his riches will he stir up all, the kingdom of Javan.

lesserot@Daniel:11:4 @ And when he shall have stood, his kingdom will be broken, and will be divided toward the four winds of the heavens, and not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion which he ruled; for his kingdom will be torn asunder even for others beside those.

lesserot@Daniel:11:5 @ And the king of the south will become strong, yea, he who is one of his princes; but will become strong against him, and will rule: a great dominion will his dominion be.

lesserot@Daniel:11:6 @ But at the end of years will they associate themselves together; and the daughter of the king of the south will come to the king of the north to make a settlement of difficulties; but she will not retain the power of the support; neither will he stand, nor his support: but she will be given up with those that had brought her, and he that begat her, and he that strengthened her in those times.

lesserot@Daniel:11:7 @ But there will up a sprout of her roots in his place, and he will come to the army, and will enter into the stronghold of the king of the north, and will deal with them, and prevail:

lesserot@Daniel:11:8 @ And also their gods with their molten images, with their precious vessels of silver and of gold, will he carry into captivity to Egypt; and he will stand off some years from the king of the north.

lesserot@Daniel:11:9 @ But this one will then enter the kingdom of the king of the south, and then return into his own land.

lesserot@Daniel:11:10 @ But his sons will commence a war, and assemble a multitude of great armies; and one will certainly enter, and overflow, and pass along: then will he return, and make war again, even to his stronghold.

lesserot@Daniel:11:11 @ And the king of the south will be moved with bitter wrath, and go forth and fight with him, even with the king of the north: and he will set forth a great multitude; but the multitude will be given up into his hand.

lesserot@Daniel:11:13 @ And the king of the north will return, and set forth a multitude greater than the former; and at the end of the times, of years, will he certainly come with a great army and with much riches.

lesserot@Daniel:11:14 @ And in those times many will stand up against the king of the south: also the rebellious sons of thy people will lift themselves up to establish the vision; but they will stumble.

lesserot@Daniel:11:15 @ And the king of the north will come, and cast up a mound, and capture the city defended by fortifications: and the arms of the south will not withstand, and as regardeth his chosen people, there will be no power to withstand.

lesserot@Daniel:11:17 @ He will also direct his face to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom, having professions of peace with him; and thus will he do it: and he will give him the daughter of his wife to destroy it: but it will not stand, and it will not remain his.

lesserot@Daniel:11:19 @ Then will he direct his face toward the strong–holds of his own land; but he will stumble and fall, and will no more be found.

lesserot@Daniel:11:20 @ And there will stand up in his place one who will cause the exactor to pass through the glorious of the kingdom; but within a few days will he be broken, but not in anger, nor in battle.

lesserot@Daniel:11:21 @ And there will stand up in his place a despicable person, to whom they assigned not the honor of the kingdom; but he will come in quietly, and lay hold of the kingdom by flatteries.

lesserot@Daniel:11:22 @ And the powers of the overflow will be swept away from before him, and will be broken: yea, so also the prince in covenant.

lesserot@Daniel:11:23 @ And from the time of his associating with him will he deal deceitfully; and he will come up, and obtain the victory with a small number of people.

lesserot@Daniel:11:24 @ In quiet and into the fattest portion of the province will he enter; and he will do what his fathers have not done, nor his fathers’ fathers: the prey, and spoil, and riches will he divide freely to them, and against the strong–holds will he devise his plans, but only till a certain time.

lesserot@Daniel:11:25 @ And he will then stir up his power and his courage against the king of the south with a great army: and the king of the south will prepare himself for the war with an exceedingly great and mighty army; but he will not stand; for they will devise plans against him.

lesserot@Daniel:11:26 @ Yea, they that eat of his food will bring his downfall, and the army of the other will overflow; and many will fall down slain.

lesserot@Daniel:11:30 @ For there will come against him the ships of Kittim; and he will become faint–hearted, and return, and will rage against the holy covenant; and he will do it: and he will return, and have an understanding with those that forsake the holy covenant.

lesserot@Daniel:11:35 @ And some of the intelligent will stumble, to make a purification among them, and to select and to cleanse them, until the time of the end; because it is yet for the time appointed.

lesserot@Daniel:11:36 @ And the king will do according to his pleasure; and he will exalt and magnify himself above every god, and against the God of gods will he speak incredible things, and he will prosper till the indignation be at an end; for that which is determined will be accomplished.

lesserot@Daniel:11:37 @ And to the gods of his fathers will he pay no regard; and to the desire of women, or to any god whatever will he not pay any regard; for above all will he magnify himself.

lesserot@Daniel:11:38 @ But in his place he will pay honor to the god of the fortresses; and to a god whom his fathers knew not will he pay honor with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and costly things.

lesserot@Daniel:11:40 @ And at the time of the end will the king of the south push against him; and the king of the north will come against him like a storm–wind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he will enter into some countries, and will overflow and press along.

lesserot@Daniel:11:41 @ And he will enter into the glorious land, and much will be overthrown; but these will escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the first portion of the children of ‘Ammon.

lesserot@Daniel:11:42 @ And he will stretch forth his hand against some countries, and the land of Egypt will not escape.

lesserot@Daniel:11:43 @ And he will have control over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the costly things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians will follow at his steps.

lesserot@Daniel:11:44 @ But reports out of the east and out of the north will terrify him; and he will go forth with great fury to destroy, and to exterminate many.

lesserot@Daniel:11:45 @ And he will pitch the tents of his palace between seas and the glorious holy mountain; and he will come to his end, without one to help him.

lesserot@Daniel:12:1 @ And at that time will Michael, the great prince who standeth for the children of thy people, stand forth; and there will be a time of distress, such as hath never been since the existence of any nation, until that same time; and at that time shall thy people be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.

lesserot@Daniel:12:2 @ And many of those that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to disgrace and everlasting abhorrence.

lesserot@Daniel:12:3 @ And the intelligent shall shine brilliantly like the brilliance of the expanse; and they that bring many to righteousness shall be like the stars, for ever and ever.

lesserot@Daniel:12:4 @ But thou, O Daniel, close up the words, and seal the book, until the time of the end: many will roam about, yet shall knowledge be increased.

lesserot@Daniel:12:5 @ Then I Daniel looked, and behold, there were two others standing, the one on this side of the bank of the stream, and the other on that side of the bank of the stream.

lesserot@Daniel:12:6 @ And one said to the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream, How long shall it be to the end of these wonders?

lesserot@Daniel:12:7 @ Then heard I the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream; and he lifted up his right hand and his left hand unto the heavens, and swore by the Everliving One that after a time, times, and a half, and when there shall be an end to the crushing of the power of the holy people, all these things shall be ended.

lesserot@Daniel:12:8 @ And I heard indeed, but I understood it not: then said I, O my lord, what shall be the end of these things?

lesserot@Daniel:12:9 @ And he said, Go, Daniel; for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.

lesserot@Daniel:12:10 @ Many shall be selected and cleansed, and purified; but the wicked will deal wickedly, and none of the wicked will understand: but the intelligent will understand.

lesserot@Daniel:12:13 @ But thou, go toward the end; and thou shalt rest, and arise again for thy lot at the end of the days.

lesserot@Hosea:1:1 @ The word of the Lord that came unto Hosea the son of Beeri, in the days of ‘Uzziyah, Jotham, Achaz, Hezekiah, the kings of Judah, and in the days of Jerobo’am the son of Joash the king of Israel.
