Ezekiel 24:1 Again in the ninth8671 year,8141 in the tenth6224 month,2320 in the tenth6218day of the month,2320 the word1697 of the LORD3068 came unto me, saying,5592 Son1121 of man,120 write3789 thee the name8034 of the day,3117even of this same6106 day:3117 the king4428 of Babylon894 set5564 himself against Jerusalem3389 this same6106 day.31173 And utter4911 a parable4912 unto the rebellious4805 house,1004 and say559 unto them, Thus saith559 the Lord136 GOD;3069 Set on8239 a pot,5518 set it on,8239 and also pour3332 water4325 into it:
4 Gather622 the pieces5409 thereof into it, even every good2896 piece,5409 the thigh,3409 and the shoulder;3802 fill4390it with the choice4005 bones.61065 Take3947 the choice4005 of the flock,6629 and burn1754{Or, heap} also the bones6106 under it, and make it boil7570 well,7571 and let them seethe1310 the bones6106 of it therein.8432
Ezekiel 24:6 Wherefore thus saith559 the Lord136 GOD;3069 Woe188 to the bloody1818 city,5892 to the pot5518 whose scum2457is therein, and whose scum2457 is not gone out3318 of it! bring it out3318 piece5409 by piece;5409 let no lot1486 fall5307 upon it.
7 For her blood1818 is in the midst8432 of her; she set7760 it upon the top6706 of a rock;5553 she poured8210 it not upon the ground,776 to cover3680 it with dust;60838 That it might cause fury2534 to come up5927 to take5358 vengeance;5359 I have set5414 her blood1818 upon the top6706 of a rock,5553 that it should not be covered.36809 Therefore thus saith559 the Lord136 GOD;3069 Woe188 to the bloody1818 city!5892 I will even make the pile4071 for fire great.143110 Heap7235 on wood,6086 kindle1814 the fire,784 consume8552 the flesh,1320 and spice7543 it well,4841 and let the bones6106 be burned.278711 Then set5975 it empty7386 upon the coals1513 thereof, that the brass5178 of it may be hot,3179 and may burn,2787 and that the filthiness2932 of it may be molten5413 in it,8432that the scum2457 of it may be consumed.855212 She hath wearied3811herself with lies,8383 and her great7227 scum2457 went not forth3318 out of her: her scum2457shallbe in the fire.78413 In thy filthiness2932is lewdness:2154 because I have purged2891 thee, and thou wast not purged,2891 thou shalt not be purged2891 from thy filthiness2932 any more, till I have caused my fury2534 to rest5117 upon thee.
14 I the LORD3068 have spoken1696it: it shall come to pass,935 and I will do6213it; I will not go back,6544 neither will I spare,2347 neither will I repent;5162 according to thy ways,1870 and according to thy doings,5949 shall they judge8199 thee, saith5002 the Lord136 GOD.3069
Ezekiel 24:15 Also the word1697 of the LORD3068 came unto me, saying,55916 Son1121 of man,120 behold, I take away3947 from thee the desire4261 of thine eyes5869 with a stroke:4046 yet neither shalt thou mourn5594 nor weep,1058 neither shall thy tears1832 run down.935{Heb. go}17 Forbear1826{Heb. be silent} to cry,602 make6213 no mourning60 for the dead,4191 bind2280 the tire of thine head6287 upon thee, and put on7760 thy shoes5275 upon thy feet,7272 and cover5844 not thy lips,8222{Heb. upper lip. And so vers. 22} and eat398 not the bread3899 of men.58218 So I spake1696 unto the people5971 in the morning:1242 and at even6153 my wife802 died;4191 and I did6213 in the morning1242 as I was commanded.6680
Ezekiel 24:19 And the people5971 said559 unto me, Wilt thou not tell5046 us what these thingsare to us, that thou doest6213so?20 Then I answered559 them, The word1697 of the LORD3068 came unto me, saying,55921 Speak559 unto the house1004 of Israel,3478 Thus saith559 the Lord136 GOD;3069 Behold, I will profane2490 my sanctuary,4720 the excellency1347 of your strength,5797 the desire4261 of your eyes,5869 and that which your soul5315 pitieth;4263{Heb. the pity of your soul} and your sons1121 and your daughters1323 whom ye have left5800 shall fall5307 by the sword.271922 And ye shall do6213 as I have done:6213 ye shall not cover5844your lips,8222 nor eat398 the bread3899 of men.58223 And your tires6287shallbe upon your heads,7218 and your shoes5275 upon your feet:7272 ye shall not mourn5594 nor weep;1058 but ye shall pine away4743 for your iniquities,5771 and mourn5098 one376 toward another.25124 Thus Ezekiel3168 is unto you a sign:4159 according to all that he hath done6213 shall ye do:6213 and when this cometh,935 ye shall know3045 that I am the Lord136 GOD.306925 Also, thou son1121 of man,120shallit not be in the day3117 when I take3947 from them their strength,4581 the joy4885 of their glory,8597 the desire4261 of their eyes,5869 and that whereupon they set4853 their minds,5315{Heb. the lifting up of the soul} their sons1121 and their daughters,132326That he that escapeth6412 in that day3117 shall come935 unto thee, to cause thee to hear2045it with thine ears?24127 In that day3117 shall thy mouth6310 be opened6605 to him which is escaped,6412 and thou shalt speak,1696 and be no more dumb:481 and thou shalt be a sign4159 unto them; and they shall know3045 that I am the LORD.3068
