Moreover the spiritH7307 lifted me upH5375, and broughtH935 me unto the eastH6931 gateH8179 of the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004, which lookethH6437 eastwardH6921: and behold at the doorH6607 of the gateH8179 fiveH2568 and twentyH6242 menH376; amongH8432 whom I sawH7200 JaazaniahH2970 the sonH1121 of AzurH5809, and PelatiahH6410 the sonH1121 of BenaiahH1141, princesH8269 of the peopleH5971.
Then saidH559 he unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, these are the menH582 that deviseH2803 mischiefH205, and giveH3289 wickedH7451 counselH6098 in this cityH5892:
Which sayH559, It is not nearH7138; let us buildH1129 housesH1004: this city is the caldronH5518, and we be the fleshH1320. {It is…: or, It is not for us to build houses near}
Therefore prophesyH5012 against them, prophesyH5012, O sonH1121 of manH120.
And the SpiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 fellH5307 upon me, and saidH559 unto me, SpeakH559; Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Thus have ye saidH559, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478: for I knowH3045 the things that comeH4609 into your mindH7307, every one of them.
Ye have multipliedH7235 your slainH2491 in this cityH5892, and ye have filledH4390 the streetsH2351 thereof with the slainH2491.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Your slainH2491 whom ye have laidH7760 in the midstH8432 of it, they are the fleshH1320, and this city is the caldronH5518: but I will bring you forthH3318 out of the midstH8432 of it.
Ye have fearedH3372 the swordH2719; and I will bringH935 a swordH2719 upon you, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
And I will bring you outH3318 of the midstH8432 thereof, and deliverH5414 you into the handsH3027 of strangersH2114, and will executeH6213 judgmentsH8201 among you.
Ye shall fallH5307 by the swordH2719; I will judgeH8199 you in the borderH1366 of IsraelH3478; and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
This city shall not be your caldronH5518, neither shall ye be the fleshH1320 in the midstH8432 thereof; but I will judgeH8199 you in the borderH1366 of IsraelH3478:
And ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068: for ye have not walkedH1980 in my statutesH2706, neither executedH6213 my judgmentsH4941, but have doneH6213 after the mannersH4941 of the heathenH1471 that are round aboutH5439 you. {for ye…: or, which have not walked}
And it came to pass, when I prophesiedH5012, that PelatiahH6410 the sonH1121 of BenaiahH1141 diedH4191. Then fell I downH5307 upon my faceH6440, and criedH2199 with a loudH1419 voiceH6963, and saidH559, AhH162 LordH136 GODH3069! wilt thou makeH6213 a full endH3617 of the remnantH7611 of IsraelH3478?
Again the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, thy brethrenH251, even thy brethrenH251, the menH582 of thy kindredH1353, and all the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 wholly, are they unto whom the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 have saidH559, Get you farH7368 from the LORDH3068: unto us is this landH776 givenH5414 in possessionH4181.
Therefore sayH559, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Although I have cast them far offH7368 among the heathenH1471, and although I have scatteredH6327 them among the countriesH776, yet will I be to them as a littleH4592 sanctuaryH4720 in the countriesH776 where they shall comeH935.
Therefore sayH559, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; I will even gatherH6908 you from the peopleH5971, and assembleH622 you out of the countriesH776 where ye have been scatteredH6327, and I will giveH5414 you the landH127 of IsraelH3478.
And they shall comeH935 thither, and they shall take awayH5493 all the detestable thingsH8251 thereof and all the abominationsH8441 thereof from thence.
And I will giveH5414 them oneH259 heartH3820, and I will putH5414 a newH2319 spiritH7307 withinH7130 you; and I will takeH5493 the stonyH68 heartH3820 out of their fleshH1320, and will giveH5414 them an heartH3820 of fleshH1320:
That they may walkH3212 in my statutesH2708, and keepH8104 mine ordinancesH4941, and doH6213 them: and they shall be my peopleH5971, and I will be their GodH430.
But as for them whose heartH3820 walkethH1980 after the heartH3820 of their detestable thingsH8251 and their abominationsH8441, I will recompenseH5414 their wayH1870 upon their own headsH7218, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
Then did the cherubimsH3742 lift upH5375 their wingsH3671, and the wheelsH212 besideH5980 them; and the gloryH3519 of the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 was over them aboveH4605.
And the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 went upH5927 from the midstH8432 of the cityH5892, and stoodH5975 upon the mountainH2022 which is on the east sideH6924 of the cityH5892.
Afterwards the spiritH7307 took me upH5375, and broughtH935 me in a visionH4758 by the SpiritH7307 of GodH430 into ChaldeaH3778, to them of the captivityH1473. So the visionH4758 that I had seenH7200 went upH5927 from me.
Then I spakeH1696 unto them of the captivityH1473 all the thingsH1697 that the LORDH3068 had shewedH7200 me.

But as for them whose heartH3820 walkethH1980 after the heartH3820 of their detestable thingsH8251 and their abominationsH8441, I will recompenseH5414 their wayH1870 upon their own headsH7218, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
So I went inH935 and sawH7200; and behold every formH8403 of creeping thingsH7431, and abominableH8263 beastsH929, and all the idolsH1544 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, pourtrayedH2707 upon the wallH7023 round aboutH5439.
Because they despisedH3988 my judgmentsH4941, and walkedH1980 not in my statutesH2708, but pollutedH2490 my sabbathsH7676: for their heartH3820 wentH1980 afterH310 their idolsH1544.
Then he broughtH935 me to the doorH6607 of the gateH8179 of the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004 which was toward the northH6828; and, behold, there satH3427 womenH802 weepingH1058 for TammuzH8542.
Notwithstanding the childrenH1121 rebelledH4784 against me: they walkedH1980 not in my statutesH2708, neither keptH8104 my judgmentsH4941 to doH6213 them, which if a manH120 doH6213, he shall even liveH2425 in them; they pollutedH2490 my sabbathsH7676: then I saidH559, I would pour outH8210 my furyH2534 upon them, to accomplishH3615 my angerH639 against them in the wildernessH4057.
And he broughtH935 me into the innerH6442 courtH2691 of the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004, and, behold, at the doorH6607 of the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, between the porchH197 and the altarH4196, were about fiveH2568 and twentyH6242 menH376, with their backsH268 toward the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, and their facesH6440 toward the eastH6924; and they worshippedH7812 the sunH8121 toward the eastH6924.
Because they had not executedH6213 my judgmentsH4941, but had despisedH3988 my statutesH2708, and had pollutedH2490 my sabbathsH7676, and their eyesH5869 were afterH310 their fathers'H1 idolsH1544.
Behold, every one that useth proverbsH4911 shall use this proverbH4911 against thee, sayingH559, As is the motherH517, so is her daughterH1323.
Thou art thy mother'sH517 daughterH1323, that lothethH1602 her husbandH376 and her childrenH1121; and thou art the sisterH269 of thy sistersH269, which lothedH1602 their husbandsH582 and their childrenH1121: your motherH517 was an HittiteH2850, and your fatherH1 an AmoriteH567.
And thine elderH1419 sisterH269 is SamariaH8111, she and her daughtersH1323 that dwellH3427 at thy left handH8040: and thy youngerH6996 sisterH269, that dwellethH3427 at thy right handH3225, is SodomH5467 and her daughtersH1323. {thy younger: Heb. lesser than thou}
Yet hast thou not walkedH1980 after their waysH1870, nor doneH6213 after their abominationsH8441: but, as if that were a veryH6985 littleH4592+H6962 thing, thou wast corruptedH7843 more than theyH2004 in all thy waysH1870. {as if…: or, that was lothed as a small thing}
If they shall confessH3034 their iniquityH5771, and the iniquityH5771 of their fathersH1, with their trespassH4604 which they trespassedH4603 against me, and that also they have walkedH1980 contraryH7147 unto me;
After the doingsH4639 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, wherein ye dweltH3427, shall ye not doH6213: and after the doingsH4639 of the landH776 of CanaanH3667, whither I bringH935 you, shall ye not doH6213: neither shall ye walkH3212 in their ordinancesH2708.
Because that they have forsakenH5800 me, and have worshippedH7812 AshtorethH6253 the goddessH430 of the ZidoniansH6722, ChemoshH3645 the godH430 of the MoabitesH4124, and MilcomH4445 the godH430 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, and have not walkedH1980 in my waysH1870, to doH6213 that which is rightH3477 in mine eyesH5869, and to keep my statutesH2708 and my judgmentsH4941, as did DavidH1732 his fatherH1.
DefileH2930 not ye yourselves in any of these thingsH428: for in all these the nationsH1471 are defiledH2930 which I cast outH7971 beforeH6440 you:
And the landH776 is defiledH2930: therefore I do visitH6485 the iniquityH5771 thereof upon it, and the landH776 itself vomiteth outH6958 her inhabitantsH3427.
Ye shall therefore keepH8104 my statutesH2708 and my judgmentsH4941, and shall not commitH6213 any of these abominationsH8441; neither any of your own nationH249, nor any strangerH1616 that sojournethH1481 amongH8432 you:
(For all theseH411 abominationsH8441 have the menH582 of the landH776 doneH6213, which were beforeH6440 you, and the landH776 is defiledH2930;)
That the landH776 spue not you outH6958 also, when ye defileH2930 it, as it spued outH6958 the nationsH1471 that were beforeH6440 you.
And he forsookH5800 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of his fathersH1, and walkedH1980 not in the wayH1870 of the LORDH3068.
Take heedH8104 to thyself that thou be not snaredH5367 by followingH310 them, afterH310 that they be destroyedH8045 from beforeH6440 thee; and that thou enquireH1875 not after their godsH430, sayingH559, How did these nationsH1471 serveH5647 their godsH430? even so will I doH6213 likewiseH1571. {by…: Heb. after them}
Since the daysH3117 of our fathersH1 have we been in a greatH1419 trespassH819 unto this dayH3117; and for our iniquitiesH5771 have we, our kingsH4428, and our priestsH3548, been deliveredH5414 into the handH3027 of the kingsH4428 of the landsH776, to the swordH2719, to captivityH7628, and to a spoilH961, and to confusionH1322 of faceH6440, as it is this dayH3117.
Thou shalt not doH6213 so unto the LORDH3068 thy GodH430: for every abominationH8441 to the LORDH3068, which he hatethH8130, have they doneH6213 unto their godsH430; for even their sonsH1121 and their daughtersH1323 they have burntH8313 in the fireH784 to their godsH430. {to the: Heb. of the}
Neither have our kingsH4428, our princesH8269, our priestsH3548, nor our fathersH1, keptH6213 thy lawH8451, nor hearkenedH7181 unto thy commandmentsH4687 and thy testimoniesH5715, wherewith thou didst testifyH5749 against them.
But he walkedH3212 in the wayH1870 of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478, yea, and made his sonH1121 to pass throughH5674 the fireH784, according to the abominationsH8441 of the heathenH1471, whom the LORDH3068 cast outH3423 from beforeH6440 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
And kingH4428 AhazH271 wentH3212 to DamascusH1834 to meetH7125 TiglathpileserH8407 kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, and sawH7200 an altarH4196 that was at DamascusH1834: and kingH4428 AhazH271 sentH7971 to UrijahH223 the priestH3548 the fashionH1823 of the altarH4196, and the patternH8403 of it, according to all the workmanshipH4639 thereof. {Damascus: Heb. Dammesek}
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, StandH5975 ye in the waysH1870, and seeH7200, and askH7592 for the oldH5769 pathsH5410, where is the goodH2896 wayH1870, and walkH3212 therein, and ye shall findH4672 restH4771 for your soulsH5315. But they saidH559, We will not walkH3212 therein.
And UrijahH223 the priestH3548 builtH1129 an altarH4196 according to all that kingH4428 AhazH271 had sentH7971 from DamascusH1834: so UrijahH223 the priestH3548 madeH6213 it against kingH4428 AhazH271 cameH935 from DamascusH1834.
Neither have we obeyedH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430, to walkH3212 in his lawsH8451, which he setH5414 beforeH6440 us byH3027 his servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030.
And there they burnt incenseH6999 in all the high placesH1116, as did the heathenH1471 whom the LORDH3068 carried awayH1540 beforeH6440 them; and wroughtH6213 wickedH7451 thingsH1697 to provoke the LORDH3068 to angerH3707:
For they servedH5647 idolsH1544, whereof the LORDH3068 had saidH559 unto them, Ye shall not doH6213 this thingH1697.
Yet the LORDH3068 testifiedH5749 against IsraelH3478, and against JudahH3063, byH3027 all the prophetsH5030, and by all the seersH2374, sayingH559, TurnH7725 ye from your evilH7451 waysH1870, and keepH8104 my commandmentsH4687 and my statutesH2708, according to all the lawH8451 which I commandedH6680 your fathersH1, and which I sentH7971 to you byH3027 my servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030. {by: Heb. by the hand of}
Notwithstanding they would not hearH8085, but hardenedH7185 their necksH6203, like to the neckH6203 of their fathersH1, that did not believeH539 in the LORDH3068 their GodH430.
And they rejectedH3988 his statutesH2706, and his covenantH1285 that he madeH3772 with their fathersH1, and his testimoniesH5715 which he testifiedH5749 against them; and they followedH3212+H310 vanityH1892, and became vainH1891, and went afterH310 the heathenH1471 that were round aboutH5439 them, concerning whom the LORDH3068 had chargedH6680 them, that they should not doH6213 like them.
And they leftH5800 all the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068 their GodH430, and madeH6213 them molten imagesH4541, even twoH8147 calvesH5695, and madeH6213 a groveH842, and worshippedH7812 all the hostH6635 of heavenH8064, and servedH5647 BaalH1168.
And they caused their sonsH1121 and their daughtersH1323 to passH5674 through the fireH784, and usedH7080 divinationH7081 and enchantmentsH5172, and soldH4376 themselves to doH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, to provoke him to angerH3707.
Therefore the LORDH3068 was veryH3966 angryH599 with IsraelH3478, and removedH5493 them out of his sightH6440: there was none leftH7604 but the tribeH7626 of JudahH3063 only.
Also JudahH3063 keptH8104 not the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068 their GodH430, but walkedH3212 in the statutesH2708 of IsraelH3478 which they madeH6213.
And the LORDH3068 rejectedH3988 all the seedH2233 of IsraelH3478, and afflictedH6031 them, and deliveredH5414 them into the handH3027 of spoilersH8154, until he had castH7993 them out of his sightH6440.
For he rentH7167 IsraelH3478 from the houseH1004 of DavidH1732; and they made JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028 kingH4427: and JeroboamH3379 draveH5080+H5077 IsraelH3478 from followingH310 the LORDH3068, and made them sinH2398 a greatH1419 sinH2401.
For the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 walkedH3212 in all the sinsH2403 of JeroboamH3379 which he didH6213; they departedH5493 not from them;
Until the LORDH3068 removedH5493 IsraelH3478 out of his sightH6440, as he had saidH1696 byH3027 all his servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030. So was IsraelH3478 carried awayH1540 out of their own landH127 to AssyriaH804 unto this dayH3117.
Because they obeyedH8085 not the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 their GodH430, but transgressedH5674 his covenantH1285, and all that MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of the LORDH3068 commandedH6680, and would not hearH8085 them, nor doH6213 them.
And he didH6213 that which was evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, after the abominationsH8441 of the heathenH1471, whom the LORDH3068 cast outH3423 beforeH6440 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
Have ye not cast outH5080 the priestsH3548 of the LORDH3068, the sonsH1121 of AaronH175, and the LevitesH3881, and have madeH6213 you priestsH3548 after the manner of the nationsH5971 of other landsH776? so that whosoever comethH935 to consecrateH4390+H3027 himself with a youngH1121+H1241 bullockH6499 and sevenH7651 ramsH352, the same may be a priestH3548 of them that are noH3808 godsH430. {to consecrate…: Heb. to fill his hand}
Moreover he burnt incenseH6999 in the valleyH1516 of the sonH1121 of HinnomH2011, and burntH1197 his childrenH1121 in the fireH784, after the abominationsH8441 of the heathenH1471 whom the LORDH3068 had cast outH3423 beforeH6440 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478. {burnt…: or, offered sacrifice}
But didH6213 that which was evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, like unto the abominationsH8441 of the heathenH1471, whom the LORDH3068 had cast outH3423 beforeH6440 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
For he builtH1129 againH7725 the high placesH1116 which HezekiahH3169 his fatherH1 had broken downH5422, and he reared upH6965 altarsH4196 for BaalimH1168, and madeH6213 grovesH842, and worshippedH7812 all the hostH6635 of heavenH8064, and servedH5647 them. {he built…: Heb. he returned and built}
Also he builtH1129 altarsH4196 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, whereof the LORDH3068 had saidH559, In JerusalemH3389 shall my nameH8034 be for everH5769.
And he builtH1129 altarsH4196 for all the hostH6635 of heavenH8064 in the twoH8147 courtsH2691 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
And he causedH5674 his childrenH1121 to pass throughH5674 the fireH784 in the valleyH1516 of the sonH1121 of HinnomH2011: also he observed timesH6049, and used enchantmentsH5172, and used witchcraftH3784, and dealtH6213 with a familiar spiritH178, and with wizardsH3049: he wroughtH6213 muchH7235 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, to provoke him to angerH3707.
And he setH7760 a carved imageH6459, the idolH5566 which he had madeH6213, in the houseH1004 of GodH430, of which GodH430 had saidH559 to DavidH1732 and to SolomonH8010 his sonH1121, In this houseH1004, and in JerusalemH3389, which I have chosenH977 before all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, will I putH7760 my nameH8034 for everH5865:
Neither will I any moreH3254 removeH5493 the footH7272 of IsraelH3478 from outH5921 of the landH127 which I have appointedH5975 for your fathersH1; so thatH518 they will take heedH8104 to doH6213 all that I have commandedH6680 them, according to the whole lawH8451 and the statutesH2706 and the ordinancesH4941 by the handH3027 of MosesH4872.
So ManassehH4519 madeH8582 JudahH3063 and the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 to errH8582, and to doH6213 worseH7451 than the heathenH1471, whom the LORDH3068 had destroyedH8045 beforeH6440 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
Moreover all the chiefH8269 of the priestsH3548, and the peopleH5971, transgressedH4603 veryH4604 muchH7235 after all the abominationsH8441 of the heathenH1471; and pollutedH2930 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 which he had hallowedH6942 in JerusalemH3389.
But were mingledH6148 among the heathenH1471, and learnedH3925 their worksH4639.
And they servedH5647 their idolsH6091: which were a snareH4170 unto them.
Yea, they sacrificedH2076 their sonsH1121 and their daughtersH1323 unto devilsH7700,
And shedH8210 innocentH5355 bloodH1818, even the bloodH1818 of their sonsH1121 and of their daughtersH1323, whom they sacrificedH2076 unto the idolsH6091 of CanaanH3667: and the landH776 was pollutedH2610 with bloodH1818.
Thus were they defiledH2930 with their own worksH4639, and went a whoringH2181 with their own inventionsH4611.
