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.

Moreover takeH3947 thou unto thee an ironH1270 panH4227, and setH5414 it for a wallH7023 of ironH1270 between thee and the cityH5892: and setH3559 thy faceH6440 against it, and it shall be besiegedH4692, and thou shalt lay siegeH6696 against it. This shall be a signH226 to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478. {an…: or, a flat plate, or, slice}
When thou art departedH3212 from meH5978 to dayH3117, then thou shalt findH4672 twoH8147 menH582 by Rachel'sH7354 sepulchreH6900 in the borderH1366 of BenjaminH1144 at ZelzahH6766; and they will sayH559 unto thee, The assesH860 which thou wentestH1980 to seekH1245 are foundH4672: and, lo, thy fatherH1 hath leftH5203 the careH1697 of the assesH860, and sorrowethH1672 for you, sayingH559, What shall I doH6213 for my sonH1121? {care: Heb. business}
Then shalt thou go onH2498 forwardH1973 from thence, and thou shalt comeH935 to the plainH436 of TaborH8396, and there shall meetH4672 thee threeH7969 menH582 going upH5927 to GodH430 to BethelH1008, oneH259 carryingH5375 threeH7969 kidsH1423, and anotherH259 carryingH5375 threeH7969 loavesH3603 of breadH3899, and anotherH259 carryingH5375 a bottleH5035 of wineH3196:
And they willH7592 saluteH7965 thee, and giveH5414 thee twoH8147 loaves of breadH3899; which thou shalt receiveH3947 of their handsH3027. {salute…: Heb. ask thee of peace}
AfterH310 that thou shalt comeH935 to the hillH1389 of GodH430, where is the garrisonH5333 of the PhilistinesH6430: and it shall come to pass, when thou art come thitherH935 to the cityH5892, that thou shalt meetH6293 a companyH2256 of prophetsH5030 coming downH3381 from the high placeH1116 with a psalteryH5035, and a tabretH8596, and a pipeH2485, and a harpH3658, beforeH6440 them; and they shall prophesyH5012:
And the SpiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 will comeH6743 upon thee, and thou shalt prophesyH5012 with them, and shalt be turnedH2015 into anotherH312 manH376.
And let it be, when these signsH226 are comeH935 unto thee, that thou doH6213 as occasionH4672 serveH3027 thee; for GodH430 is with thee. {And…: Heb. And it shall come to pass, that when these signs, etc} {that…: Heb. do for thee as thine hand shall find}
And the slainH2491 shall fallH5307 in the midstH8432 of you, and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
In their sightH5869 shalt thou bearH5375 it upon thy shouldersH3802, and carry it forthH3318 in the twilightH5939: thou shalt coverH3680 thy faceH6440, that thou seeH7200 not the groundH776: for I have setH5414 thee for a signH4159 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478.
And mine eyeH5869 shall not spareH2347, neither will I have pityH2550: I will recompenseH5414 thee according to thy waysH1870 and thine abominationsH8441 that are in the midstH8432 of thee; and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068 that smitethH5221. {thee according: Heb. upon thee, etc}
SayH559, I am your signH4159: like as I have doneH6213, so shall it be doneH6213 unto them: they shall removeH1473 and goH3212 into captivityH7628. {they…: Heb. by removing go into captivity}
The kingH4428 shall mournH56, and the princeH5387 shall be clothedH3847 with desolationH8077, and the handsH3027 of the peopleH5971 of the landH776 shall be troubledH926: I will doH6213 unto them after their wayH1870, and according to their desertsH4941 will I judgeH8199 them; and they shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068. {according…: Heb. with their judgments}
Behold, I and the childrenH3206 whom the LORDH3068 hath givenH5414 me are for signsH226 and for wondersH4159 in IsraelH3478 from the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, which dwellethH7931 in mountH2022 ZionH6726.
NowG575+G737 I tellG3004 youG5213 beforeG4253 it comeG1096, thatG2443, whenG3752 it is come to passG1096, ye may believeG4100 thatG3754 IG1473 amG1510 he. {Now: or, From henceforth}
And all the treesH6086 of the fieldH7704 shall knowH3045 that I the LORDH3068 have brought downH8213 the highH1364 treeH6086, have exaltedH1361 the lowH8217 treeH6086, have driedH3001 up the greenH3892 treeH6086, and have made the dryH3002 treeH6086 to flourishH6524: I the LORDH3068 have spokenH1696 and have doneH6213 it.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559, Like as my servantH5650 IsaiahH3470 hath walkedH1980 nakedH6174 and barefootH3182 threeH7969 yearsH8141 for a signH226 and wonderH4159 upon EgyptH4714 and upon EthiopiaH3568;
AndG2532 nowG3568 I have toldG2046 youG5213 beforeG4250 it come to passG1096, thatG2443, whenG3752 it is come to passG1096, ye might believeG4100.
And I will makeH5414 RabbahH7237 a stableH5116 for camelsH1581, and the AmmonitesH1121+H5983 a couchingplaceH4769 for flocksH6629: and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
The beginningH8462 of the wordH1696 of the LORDH3068 by HoseaH1954. And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to HoseaH1954, GoH3212, takeH3947 unto thee a wifeH802 of whoredomsH2183 and childrenH3206 of whoredomsH2183: for the landH776 hath committed greatH2181 whoredomH2181, departing fromH310 the LORDH3068.
So he wentH3212 and tookH3947 GomerH1586 the daughterH1323 of DiblaimH1691; which conceivedH2029, and bareH3205 him a sonH1121.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto him, CallH7121 his nameH8034 JezreelH3157; for yet a littleH4592 while, and I will avengeH6485 the bloodH1818 of JezreelH3157 upon the houseH1004 of JehuH3058, and will cause to ceaseH7673 the kingdomH4468 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478. {avenge: Heb. visit}
And it shall come to pass at that dayH3117, that I will breakH7665 the bowH7198 of IsraelH3478 in the valleyH6010 of JezreelH3157.
And she conceived againH2029, and bareH3205 a daughterH1323. And God saidH559 unto him, CallH7121 her nameH8034 LoruhamahH3819: for I will no moreH3254 have mercyH7355 upon the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; but I will utterlyH5375 take them awayH5375. {Loruhamah: that is, Not having obtained mercy} {no…: Heb. not add any more to} {but…: or, that I should altogether pardon them}
But I will have mercyH7355 upon the houseH1004 of JudahH3063, and will saveH3467 them by the LORDH3068 their GodH430, and will not saveH3467 them by bowH7198, nor by swordH2719, nor by battleH4421, by horsesH5483, nor by horsemenH6571.
Now when she had weanedH1580 LoruhamahH3819, she conceivedH2029, and bareH3205 a sonH1121.
Then saidH559 God, CallH7121 his nameH8034 LoammiH3818: for ye are not my peopleH5971, and I will not be your God. {Loammi: that is, Not my people}
ButG235 these thingsG5023 have I toldG2980 youG5213, thatG2443 whenG3752 the timeG5610 shall comeG2064, ye may rememberG3421 thatG3754 IG1473 toldG2036 youG5213 of themG846. AndG1161 these thingsG5023 I saidG2036 notG3756 unto youG5213 atG1537 the beginningG746, becauseG3754 I wasG2252 withG3326 youG5216.
Behold, therefore I will stretch outH5186 mine handH3027 upon thee, and will deliverH5414 thee for a spoilH957+H897 to the heathenH1471; and I will cut thee offH3772 from the peopleH5971, and I will cause thee to perishH6 out of the countriesH776: I will destroyH8045 thee; and thou shalt knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068. {a spoil: or, meat}
Then saidH559 the LORDH3068 unto me, GoH3212 yet, loveH157 a womanH802 belovedH157 of her friendH7453, yet an adulteressH5003, according to the loveH160 of the LORDH3068 toward the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, who lookH6437 to otherH312 godsH430, and loveH157 flagonsH809 of wineH6025. {of wine: Heb. of grapes}
So I boughtH3739 her to me for fifteenH6240+H2568 pieces of silverH3701, and for an homerH2563 of barleyH8184, and an half homerH3963 of barleyH8184: {half…: Heb. lethech}
And I saidH559 unto her, Thou shalt abideH3427 for me manyH7227 daysH3117; thou shalt not play the harlotH2181, and thou shalt not beH1961 for another manH376: so will I also be for thee.
For the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 shall abideH3427 manyH7227 daysH3117 without a kingH4428, and without a princeH8269, and without a sacrificeH2077, and without an imageH4676, and without an ephodH646, and without teraphimH8655: {image: Heb. a standing, or, statue, or, pillar}
And I will executeH6213 judgmentsH8201 upon MoabH4124; and they shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
AndG1161 when the peopleG3793 were gathered thick togetherG1865, he beganG756 to sayG3004, ThisG3778 isG2076 an evilG4190 generationG1074: they seekG1934 a signG4592; andG2532 there shallG1325 noG3756 signG4592 be givenG1325 itG846, butG1508 the signG4592 of JonasG2495 the prophetG4396.
And I will layH5414 my vengeanceH5360 upon EdomH123 by the handH3027 of my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478: and they shall doH6213 in EdomH123 according to mine angerH639 and according to my furyH2534; and they shall knowH3045 my vengeanceH5360, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
