Then cameH935 certainH582 of the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 unto me, and satH3427 beforeH6440 me.
And the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, these menH582 have set upH5927 their idolsH1544 in their heartH3820, and putH5414 the stumblingblockH4383 of their iniquityH5771 beforeH5227 their faceH6440: should I be enquiredH1875 of at allH1875 by them?
Therefore speakH1696 unto them, and sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Every manH376 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 that setteth upH5927 his idolsH1544 in his heartH3820, and puttethH7760 the stumblingblockH4383 of his iniquityH5771 beforeH5227 his faceH6440, and comethH935 to the prophetH5030; I the LORDH3068 will answerH6030 him that comethH935 according to the multitudeH7230 of his idolsH1544;
That I may takeH8610 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 in their own heartH3820, because they are all estrangedH2114 from me through their idolsH1544.
Therefore sayH559 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; RepentH7725, and turnH7725 yourselves from your idolsH1544; and turn awayH7725 your facesH6440 from all your abominationsH8441. {yourselves: or, others}
For every oneH376 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, or of the strangerH1616 that sojournethH1481 in IsraelH3478, which separatethH5144 himself from meH310, and setteth upH5927 his idolsH1544 in his heartH3820, and puttethH7760 the stumblingblockH4383 of his iniquityH5771 beforeH5227 his faceH6440, and comethH935 to a prophetH5030 to enquireH1875 of him concerning me; I the LORDH3068 will answerH6030 him by myself:
And I will setH5414 my faceH6440 against that manH376, and will makeH8074 him a signH226 and a proverbH4912, and I will cut him offH3772 from the midstH8432 of my peopleH5971; and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
And if the prophetH5030 be deceivedH6601 when he hath spokenH1696 a thingH1697, I the LORDH3068 have deceivedH6601 that prophetH5030, and I will stretch outH5186 my handH3027 upon him, and will destroyH8045 him from the midstH8432 of my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478.
And they shall bearH5375 the punishment of their iniquityH5771: the punishmentH5771 of the prophetH5030 shall be even as the punishmentH5771 of him that seekethH1875 unto him;
That the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 may go no more astrayH8582 from meH310, neither be pollutedH2930 any more with all their transgressionsH6588; but that they may be my peopleH5971, and I may be their GodH430, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came again to me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, when the landH776 sinnethH2398 against me by trespassingH4603 grievouslyH4604, then will I stretch outH5186 mine handH3027 upon it, and will breakH7665 the staffH4294 of the breadH3899 thereof, and will sendH7971 famineH7458 upon it, and will cut offH3772 manH120 and beastH929 from it:
Though these threeH7969 menH582, NoahH5146, DanielH1840, and JobH347, were in itH8432, they should deliverH5337 but their own soulsH5315 by their righteousnessH6666, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
IfH3863 I cause noisomeH7451 beastsH2416 to pass throughH5674 the landH776, and they spoilH7921 it, so that it be desolateH8077, that no man may pass throughH5674 becauseH6440 of the beastsH2416: {spoil: or, bereave}
Though these threeH7969 menH582 were in itH8432, as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, they shall deliverH5337 neither sonsH1121 nor daughtersH1323; they only shall be deliveredH5337, but the landH776 shall be desolateH8077. {in it: Heb. in the midst of it}
Or if I bringH935 a swordH2719 upon that landH776, and sayH559, SwordH2719, go throughH5674 the landH776; so that I cut offH3772 manH120 and beastH929 from it:
Though these threeH7969 menH582 were in itH8432, as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, they shall deliverH5337 neither sonsH1121 nor daughtersH1323, but they only shall be deliveredH5337 themselves.
Or if I sendH7971 a pestilenceH1698 into that landH776, and pour outH8210 my furyH2534 upon it in bloodH1818, to cut offH3772 from it manH120 and beastH929:
Though NoahH5146, DanielH1840, and JobH347, were in itH8432, as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, they shall deliverH5337 neither sonH1121 norH518 daughterH1323; they shall but deliverH5337 their own soulsH5315 by their righteousnessH6666.
For thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; How much more when I sendH7971 my fourH702 soreH7451 judgmentsH8201 upon JerusalemH3389, the swordH2719, and the famineH7458, and the noisomeH7451 beastH2416, and the pestilenceH1698, to cut offH3772 from it manH120 and beastH929? {How…: or, Also when}
Yet, behold, therein shall be leftH3498 a remnantH6413 that shall be brought forthH3318, both sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323: behold, they shall come forthH3318 unto you, and ye shall seeH7200 their wayH1870 and their doingsH5949: and ye shall be comfortedH5162 concerning the evilH7451 that I have broughtH935 upon JerusalemH3389, even concerning all that I have broughtH935 upon it.
And they shall comfortH5162 you, when ye seeH7200 their waysH1870 and their doingsH5949: and ye shall knowH3045 that I have not doneH6213 without causeH2600 all that I have doneH6213 in it, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.

Seeing he despisedH959 the oathH423 by breakingH6565 the covenantH1285, when, lo, he had givenH5414 his handH3027, and hath doneH6213 all these things, he shall not escapeH4422.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; As I liveH2416, surely mine oathH423 that he hath despisedH959, and my covenantH1285 that he hath brokenH6331, even it will I recompenseH5414 upon his own headH7218.
And I will spreadH6566 my netH7568 upon him, and he shall be takenH8610 in my snareH4686, and I will bringH935 him to BabylonH894, and will pleadH8199 with him there for his trespassH4603 that he hath trespassedH4604 against me.
Therefore speakH1696 unto them, and sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Every manH376 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 that setteth upH5927 his idolsH1544 in his heartH3820, and puttethH7760 the stumblingblockH4383 of his iniquityH5771 beforeH5227 his faceH6440, and comethH935 to the prophetH5030; I the LORDH3068 will answerH6030 him that comethH935 according to the multitudeH7230 of his idolsH1544;
And they shall recompenseH5414 your lewdnessH2154 upon you, and ye shall bearH5375 the sinsH2399 of your idolsH1544: and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LordH136 GODH3069.
For every oneH376 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, or of the strangerH1616 that sojournethH1481 in IsraelH3478, which separatethH5144 himself from meH310, and setteth upH5927 his idolsH1544 in his heartH3820, and puttethH7760 the stumblingblockH4383 of his iniquityH5771 beforeH5227 his faceH6440, and comethH935 to a prophetH5030 to enquireH1875 of him concerning me; I the LORDH3068 will answerH6030 him by myself:
And CainH7014 saidH559 unto the LORDH3068, My punishmentH5771 is greaterH1419 than I can bearH5375. {My…: or, Mine iniquity is greater than that it may be forgiven}
And I will setH5414 my faceH6440 against that manH376, and will makeH8074 him a signH226 and a proverbH4912, and I will cut him offH3772 from the midstH8432 of my peopleH5971; and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
Then shall the manH376 be guiltlessH5352 from iniquityH5771, and thisH1931 womanH802 shall bearH5375 her iniquityH5771.
If there ariseH6965 amongH7130 you a prophetH5030, or a dreamerH2492 of dreamsH2472, and givethH5414 thee a signH226 or a wonderH4159,
And the signH226 or the wonderH4159 come to passH935, whereof he spakeH1696 unto thee, sayingH559, Let us goH3212 afterH310 otherH312 godsH430, which thou hast not knownH3045, and let us serveH5647 them;
Thou shalt not hearkenH8085 unto the wordsH1697 of that prophetH5030, or that dreamerH2492 of dreamsH2472: for the LORDH3068 your GodH430 provethH5254 you, to knowH3045 whether yeH3426 loveH157 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 with all your heartH3824 and with all your soulH5315.
Ye shall walkH3212 afterH310 the LORDH3068 your GodH430, and fearH3372 him, and keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687, and obeyH8085 his voiceH6963, and ye shall serveH5647 him, and cleaveH1692 unto him.
And that prophetH5030, or that dreamerH2492 of dreamsH2472, shall be put to deathH4191; because he hath spokenH1696 to turnH5627 you away from the LORDH3068 your GodH430, which brought you outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and redeemedH6299 you out of the houseH1004 of bondageH5650, to thrustH5080 thee out of the wayH1870 which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 commandedH6680 thee to walk inH3212. So shalt thou putH1197 the evilH7451 awayH1197 from the midstH7130 of thee. {to turn…: Heb. revolt against the LORD}
If thy brotherH251, the sonH1121 of thy motherH517, or thy sonH1121, or thy daughterH1323, or the wifeH802 of thy bosomH2436, or thy friendH7453, which is as thine own soulH5315, enticeH5496 thee secretlyH5643, sayingH559, Let us goH3212 and serveH5647 otherH312 godsH430, which thou hast not knownH3045, thou, nor thy fathersH1;
Namely, of the godsH430 of the peopleH5971 which are round aboutH5439 you, nighH7138 unto thee, or far offH7350 from thee, from the one endH7097 of the earthH776 even unto the other endH7097 of the earthH776;
Thou shalt not consentH14 unto him, nor hearkenH8085 unto him; neither shall thine eyeH5869 pityH2347 him, neither shalt thou spareH2550, neither shalt thou concealH3680 him:
But thou shalt surelyH2026 killH2026 him; thine handH3027 shall be firstH7223 upon him to put him to deathH4191, and afterwardsH314 the handH3027 of all the peopleH5971.
And thou shalt stoneH5619 him with stonesH68, that he dieH4191; because he hath soughtH1245 to thrust thee awayH5080 from the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, which brought thee outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, from the houseH1004 of bondageH5650. {bondage: Heb. bondmen}
I will bearH5375 the indignationH2197 of the LORDH3068, because I have sinnedH2398 against him, until he pleadH7378 my causeH7379, and executeH6213 judgmentH4941 for me: he will bring me forthH3318 to the lightH216, and I shall beholdH7200 his righteousnessH6666.
If there be foundH4672 amongH7130 you, within anyH259 of thy gatesH8179 which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 givethH5414 thee, manH376 or womanH802, that hath wroughtH6213 wickednessH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, in transgressingH5674 his covenantH1285,
And hath goneH3212 and servedH5647 otherH312 godsH430, and worshippedH7812 them, either the sunH8121, or moonH3394, or any of the hostH6635 of heavenH8064, which I have not commandedH6680;
And it be toldH5046 thee, and thou hast heardH8085 of it, and enquiredH1875 diligentlyH3190, and, behold, it be trueH571, and the thingH1697 certainH3559, that such abominationH8441 is wroughtH6213 in IsraelH3478:
Then shalt thou bring forthH3318 that manH376 or that womanH802, which have committedH6213 that wickedH7451 thingH1697, unto thy gatesH8179, even that manH376 or that womanH802, and shalt stoneH5619 them with stonesH68, till they dieH4191.
At the mouthH6310 of twoH8147 witnessesH5707, or threeH7969 witnessesH5707, shall he that is worthy of deathH4191 be put to deathH4191; but at the mouthH6310 of oneH259 witnessH5707 he shall not be put to deathH4191.
The handsH3027 of the witnessesH5707 shall be firstH7223 upon him to put him to deathH4191, and afterwardH314 the handsH3027 of all the peopleH5971. So thou shalt putH1197 the evilH7451 awayH1197 from amongH7130 you.
They have healedH7495 also the hurtH7667 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971 slightlyH7043, sayingH559, PeaceH7965, peaceH7965; when there is no peaceH7965. {hurt: Heb. bruise, or, breach}
Were they ashamedH3001 when they had committedH6213 abominationH8441? nayH1571, they were not at allH954 ashamedH954, neitherH1571 couldH3045 they blushH3637: therefore they shall fallH5307 among them that fallH5307: at the timeH6256 that I visitH6485 them they shall be cast downH3782, saithH559 the LORDH3068.
For they have healedH7495 the hurtH7667 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971 slightlyH7043, sayingH559, PeaceH7965, peaceH7965; when there is no peaceH7965.
Were they ashamedH3001 when they had committedH6213 abominationH8441? nay, they were not at allH954 ashamedH954, neither couldH3045 they blushH3637: therefore shall they fallH5307 among them that fallH5307: in the timeH6256 of their visitationH6486 they shall be cast downH3782, saithH559 the LORDH3068.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 concerning the prophetsH5030 that prophesyH5012 in my nameH8034, and I sentH7971 them not, yet they sayH559, SwordH2719 and famineH7458 shall not be in this landH776; By swordH2719 and famineH7458 shall those prophetsH5030 be consumedH8552.
AndG2532 I sawG1492 the beastG2342, andG2532 the kingsG935 of the earthG1093, andG2532 theirG846 armiesG4753, gathered togetherG4863 to makeG4160 warG4171 againstG3326 him that satG2521 onG1909 the horseG2462, andG2532 againstG3326 hisG846 armyG4753.
AndG2532 the beastG2342 was takenG4084, andG2532 withG3326 himG5127 the false prophetG5578 that wroughtG4160 miraclesG4592 beforeG1799 himG846, withG1722 whichG3739 he deceivedG4105 them that had receivedG2983 the markG5480 of the beastG2342, andG2532 them that worshippedG4352 hisG846 imageG1504. These bothG1417 were castG906 aliveG2198 intoG1519 a lakeG3041 of fireG4442 burningG2545 withG1722 brimstoneG2303.
AndG2532 the remnantG3062 were slainG615 withG1722 the swordG4501 of him that satG2521 uponG1909 the horseG2462, whichG3588 sword proceededG1607 out ofG1537 hisG846 mouthG4750: andG2532 allG3956 the fowlsG3732 were filledG5526 withG1537 theirG846 fleshG4561.
