Again in the ninthH8671 yearH8141, in the tenthH6224 monthH2320, in the tenthH6218 day of the monthH2320, the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, writeH3789 thee the nameH8034 of the dayH3117, even of this sameH6106 dayH3117: the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 setH5564 himself against JerusalemH3389 this sameH6106 dayH3117.
And utterH4911 a parableH4912 unto the rebelliousH4805 houseH1004, and sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Set onH8239 a potH5518, set it onH8239, and also pourH3332 waterH4325 into it:
GatherH622 the piecesH5409 thereof into it, even every goodH2896 pieceH5409, the thighH3409, and the shoulderH3802; fillH4390 it with the choiceH4005 bonesH6106.
TakeH3947 the choiceH4005 of the flockH6629, and burnH1754 also the bonesH6106 under it, and make it boilH7570 wellH7571, and let them seetheH1310 the bonesH6106 of it thereinH8432. {burn: or, heap}
Wherefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; WoeH188 to the bloodyH1818 cityH5892, to the potH5518 whose scumH2457 is therein, and whose scumH2457 is not gone outH3318 of it! bring it outH3318 pieceH5409 by pieceH5409; let no lotH1486 fallH5307 upon it.
For her bloodH1818 is in the midstH8432 of her; she setH7760 it upon the topH6706 of a rockH5553; she pouredH8210 it not upon the groundH776, to coverH3680 it with dustH6083;
That it might cause furyH2534 to come upH5927 to takeH5358 vengeanceH5359; I have setH5414 her bloodH1818 upon the topH6706 of a rockH5553, that it should not be coveredH3680.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; WoeH188 to the bloodyH1818 cityH5892! I will even make the pileH4071 for fire greatH1431.
HeapH7235 on woodH6086, kindleH1814 the fireH784, consumeH8552 the fleshH1320, and spiceH7543 it wellH4841, and let the bonesH6106 be burnedH2787.
Then setH5975 it emptyH7386 upon the coalsH1513 thereof, that the brassH5178 of it may be hotH3179, and may burnH2787, and that the filthinessH2932 of it may be moltenH5413 in itH8432, that the scumH2457 of it may be consumedH8552.
She hath weariedH3811 herself with liesH8383, and her greatH7227 scumH2457 went not forthH3318 out of her: her scumH2457 shall be in the fireH784.
In thy filthinessH2932 is lewdnessH2154: because I have purgedH2891 thee, and thou wast not purgedH2891, thou shalt not be purgedH2891 from thy filthinessH2932 any more, till I have caused my furyH2534 to restH5117 upon thee.
I the LORDH3068 have spokenH1696 it: it shall come to passH935, and I will doH6213 it; I will not go backH6544, neither will I spareH2347, neither will I repentH5162; according to thy waysH1870, and according to thy doingsH5949, shall they judgeH8199 thee, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
Also the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, behold, I take awayH3947 from thee the desireH4261 of thine eyesH5869 with a strokeH4046: yet neither shalt thou mournH5594 nor weepH1058, neither shall thy tearsH1832 run downH935. {run down: Heb. go}
ForbearH1826 to cryH602, makeH6213 no mourningH60 for the deadH4191, bindH2280 the tire of thine headH6287 upon thee, and put onH7760 thy shoesH5275 upon thy feetH7272, and coverH5844 not thy lipsH8222, and eatH398 not the breadH3899 of menH582. {Forbear: Heb. Be silent} {lips: Heb. upper lip}
So I spakeH1696 unto the peopleH5971 in the morningH1242: and at evenH6153 my wifeH802 diedH4191; and I didH6213 in the morningH1242 as I was commandedH6680.
And the peopleH5971 saidH559 unto me, Wilt thou not tellH5046 us what these things are to us, that thou doestH6213 so?
Then I answeredH559 them, The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SpeakH559 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Behold, I will profaneH2490 my sanctuaryH4720, the excellencyH1347 of your strengthH5797, the desireH4261 of your eyesH5869, and that which your soulH5315 pitiethH4263; and your sonsH1121 and your daughtersH1323 whom ye have leftH5800 shall fallH5307 by the swordH2719. {that…: Heb. the pity of your soul}
And ye shall doH6213 as I have doneH6213: ye shall not coverH5844 your lipsH8222, nor eatH398 the breadH3899 of menH582.
And your tiresH6287 shall be upon your headsH7218, and your shoesH5275 upon your feetH7272: ye shall not mournH5594 nor weepH1058; but ye shall pine awayH4743 for your iniquitiesH5771, and mournH5098 oneH376 toward anotherH251.
Thus EzekielH3168 is unto you a signH4159: according to all that he hath doneH6213 shall ye doH6213: and when this comethH935, ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LordH136 GODH3069.
Also, thou sonH1121 of manH120, shall it not be in the dayH3117 when I takeH3947 from them their strengthH4581, the joyH4885 of their gloryH8597, the desireH4261 of their eyesH5869, and that whereupon they setH4853 their mindsH5315, their sonsH1121 and their daughtersH1323, {that…: Heb. the lifting up of their soul}
That he that escapethH6412 in that dayH3117 shall comeH935 unto thee, to cause thee to hearH2045 it with thine earsH241?
In that dayH3117 shall thy mouthH6310 be openedH6605 to him which is escapedH6412, and thou shalt speakH1696, and be no more dumbH481: and thou shalt be a signH4159 unto them; and they shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.

SonH1121 of manH120, put forthH2330 a riddleH2420, and speakH4911 a parableH4912 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478;
And he saidH559 unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, I sendH7971 thee to the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, to a rebelliousH4775 nationH1471 that hath rebelledH4775 against me: they and their fathersH1 have transgressedH6586 against me, even unto this veryH6106 dayH3117. {nation: Heb. nations}
Wherefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; WoeH188 to the bloodyH1818 cityH5892, to the potH5518 whose scumH2457 is therein, and whose scumH2457 is not gone outH3318 of it! bring it outH3318 pieceH5409 by pieceH5409; let no lotH1486 fallH5307 upon it.
And sayH559, What is thy motherH517? A lionessH3833: she lay downH7257 among lionsH738, she nourishedH7235 her whelpsH1482 amongH8432 young lionsH3715.
And she brought upH5927 oneH259 of her whelpsH1482: it became a young lionH3715, and it learnedH3925 to catchH2963 the preyH2964; it devouredH398 menH120.
The nationsH1471 also heardH8085 of him; he was takenH8610 in their pitH7845, and they broughtH935 him with chainsH2397 unto the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
Now when she sawH7200 that she had waitedH3176, and her hopeH8615 was lostH6, then she tookH3947 anotherH259 of her whelpsH1482, and madeH7760 him a young lionH3715.
And he went up and downH1980 amongH8432 the lionsH738, he became a young lionH3715, and learnedH3925 to catchH2963 the preyH2964, and devouredH398 menH120.
And he knewH3045 their desolate palacesH490, and he laid wasteH2717 their citiesH5892; and the landH776 was desolateH3456, and the fulnessH4393 thereof, by the noiseH6963 of his roaringH7581. {their desolate…: or, their widows} {the fulness…: or, all it containeth}
Then the nationsH1471 setH5414 against him on every sideH5439 from the provincesH4082, and spreadH6566 their netH7568 over him: he was takenH8610 in their pitH7845.
And they putH5414 him in wardH5474 in chainsH2397, and broughtH935 him to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894: they broughtH935 him into holdsH4685, that his voiceH6963 should no more be heardH8085 upon the mountainsH2022 of IsraelH3478. {in chains: or, in hooks}
Thy motherH517 is like a vineH1612 in thy bloodH1818+H1818, plantedH8362 by the watersH4325: she was fruitfulH6509 and full of branchesH6058 by reason of manyH7227 watersH4325. {in…: or, in thy quietness, or, in thy likeness}
And she had strongH5797 rodsH4294 for the sceptresH7626 of them that bare ruleH4910, and her statureH6967 was exaltedH1361 among the thick branchesH5688, and she appearedH7200 in her heightH1363 with the multitudeH7230 of her branchesH1808.
But she was plucked upH5428 in furyH2534, she was cast downH7993 to the groundH776, and the eastH6921 windH7307 dried upH3001 her fruitH6529: her strongH5797 rodsH4294 were brokenH6561 and witheredH3001; the fireH784 consumedH398 them.
And now she is plantedH8362 in the wildernessH4057, in a dryH6723 and thirstyH6772 groundH776.
And fireH784 is gone outH3318 of a rodH4294 of her branchesH905, which hath devouredH398 her fruitH6529, so that she hath no strongH5797 rodH4294 to be a sceptreH7626 to ruleH4910. This is a lamentationH7015, and shall be for a lamentationH7015.
And thou, sonH1121 of manH120, be not afraidH3372 of them, neither be afraidH3372 of their wordsH1697, though briersH5621 and thornsH5544 be with thee, and thou dost dwellH3427 among scorpionsH6137: be not afraidH3372 of their wordsH1697, nor be dismayedH2865 at their looksH6440, though they be a rebelliousH4805 houseH1004. {briers…: or, rebels}
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}
Then saidH559 I, AhH162 LordH136 GODH3069! they sayH559 of me, Doth he not speakH4911 parablesH4912?
But thou, sonH1121 of manH120, hearH8085 what I sayH1696 unto thee; Be notH1961 thou rebelliousH4805 like that rebelliousH4805 houseH1004: openH6475 thy mouthH6310, and eatH398 that I giveH5414 thee.
Because of the wrathH7110 of the LORDH3068 it shall not be inhabitedH3427, but it shall be wholly desolateH8077: every one that goethH5674 by BabylonH894 shall be astonishedH8074, and hissH8319 at all her plaguesH4347.
As an adamantH8068 harderH2389 than flintH6864 have I madeH5414 thy foreheadH4696: fearH3372 them not, neither be dismayedH2865 at their looksH6440, though they be a rebelliousH4805 houseH1004.
Put yourselves in arrayH6186 against BabylonH894 round aboutH5439: all ye that bendH1869 the bowH7198, shootH3034 at her, spareH2550 no arrowsH2671: for she hath sinnedH2398 against the LORDH3068.
In that dayH3117 shall one take upH5375 a parableH4912 against you, and lamentH5091 with a dolefulH5093 lamentationH5092, and sayH559, We be utterlyH7703 spoiledH7703: he hath changedH4171 the portionH2506 of my peopleH5971: how hath he removedH4185 it from me! turning awayH7725 he hath dividedH2505 our fieldsH7704. {a doleful…: Heb. a lamentation of lamentations} {turning…: or, instead of restoring}
SonH1121 of manH120, thou dwellestH3427 in the midstH8432 of a rebelliousH4805 houseH1004, which have eyesH5869 to seeH7200, and seeH7200 not; they have earsH241 to hearH8085, and hearH8085 not: for they are a rebelliousH4805 houseH1004.
AndG2532 they soughtG2212 to lay holdG2902 on himG846, butG2532 fearedG5399 the peopleG3793: forG1063 they knewG1097 thatG3754 he had spokenG2036 the parableG3850 againstG4314 themG846: andG2532 they leftG863 himG846, and went their wayG565.
For I am the LORDH3068: I will speakH1696, and the wordH1697 that I shall speakH1696 shall come to passH6213; it shall be no more prolongedH4900: for in your daysH3117, O rebelliousH4805 houseH1004, will I sayH1696 the wordH1697, and will performH6213 it, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
AndG1161 he saidG2036, Unto youG5213 it is givenG1325 to knowG1097 the mysteriesG3466 of the kingdomG932 of GodG2316: butG1161 to othersG3062 inG1722 parablesG3850; thatG2443 seeingG991 they mightG991 notG3361 seeG991, andG2532 hearingG191 they mightG4920 notG3361 understandG4920.
SayH559 now to the rebelliousH4805 houseH1004, KnowH3045 ye not what these things mean? tellH559 them, Behold, the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 is comeH935 to JerusalemH3389, and hath takenH3947 the kingH4428 thereof, and the princesH8269 thereof, and ledH935 them with him to BabylonH894;
HearH8085, O heavensH8064, and give earH238, O earthH776: for the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696, I have nourishedH1431 and brought upH7311 childrenH1121, and they have rebelledH6586 against me.
WoeH1945 to the rebelliousH5637 childrenH1121, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that takeH6213 counselH6098, but not of me; and that coverH5258 with a coveringH4541, but not of my spiritH7307, that they may addH5595 sinH2403 to sinH2403:
That this is a rebelliousH4805 peopleH5971, lyingH3586 childrenH1121, childrenH1121 that willH14 not hearH8085 the lawH8451 of the LORDH3068:
