And it came to pass in the sixthH8345 yearH8141, in the sixthH8345 month, in the fifthH2568 day of the monthH2320, as I satH3427 in mine houseH1004, and the eldersH2205 of JudahH3063 satH3427 beforeH6440 me, that the handH3027 of the LordH136 GODH3069 fellH5307 there upon me.
Then I beheldH7200, and lo a likenessH1823 as the appearanceH4758 of fireH784: from the appearanceH4758 of his loinsH4975 even downwardH4295, fireH784; and from his loinsH4975 even upwardH4605, as the appearanceH4758 of brightnessH2096, as the colourH5869 of amberH2830.
And he put forthH7971 the formH8403 of an handH3027, and tookH3947 me by a lockH6734 of mine headH7218; and the spiritH7307 lifted me upH5375 between the earthH776 and the heavenH8064, and broughtH935 me in the visionsH4759 of GodH430 to JerusalemH3389, to the doorH6607 of the innerH6442 gateH8179 that lookethH6437 toward the northH6828; where was the seatH4186 of the imageH5566 of jealousyH7068, which provoketh to jealousyH7069.
And, behold, the gloryH3519 of the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 was there, according to the visionH4758 that I sawH7200 in the plainH1237.
Then saidH559 he unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, lift upH5375 thine eyesH5869 now the wayH1870 toward the northH6828. So I lifted upH5375 mine eyesH5869 the wayH1870 toward the northH6828, and behold northwardH6828 at the gateH8179 of the altarH4196 this imageH5566 of jealousyH7068 in the entryH872.
He saidH559 furthermore unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, seestH7200 thou what they doH6213? even the greatH1419 abominationsH8441 that the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 committethH6213 here, that I should go far offH7368 from my sanctuaryH4720? but turnH7725 thee yet again, and thou shalt seeH7200 greaterH1419 abominationsH8441.
And it came to pass in the sixthH8345 yearH8141, in the sixthH8345 month, in the fifthH2568 day of the monthH2320, as I satH3427 in mine houseH1004, and the eldersH2205 of JudahH3063 satH3427 beforeH6440 me, that the handH3027 of the LordH136 GODH3069 fellH5307 there upon me.
Then I beheldH7200, and lo a likenessH1823 as the appearanceH4758 of fireH784: from the appearanceH4758 of his loinsH4975 even downwardH4295, fireH784; and from his loinsH4975 even upwardH4605, as the appearanceH4758 of brightnessH2096, as the colourH5869 of amberH2830.
And he put forthH7971 the formH8403 of an handH3027, and tookH3947 me by a lockH6734 of mine headH7218; and the spiritH7307 lifted me upH5375 between the earthH776 and the heavenH8064, and broughtH935 me in the visionsH4759 of GodH430 to JerusalemH3389, to the doorH6607 of the innerH6442 gateH8179 that lookethH6437 toward the northH6828; where was the seatH4186 of the imageH5566 of jealousyH7068, which provoketh to jealousyH7069.
And, behold, the gloryH3519 of the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 was there, according to the visionH4758 that I sawH7200 in the plainH1237.
Then saidH559 he unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, lift upH5375 thine eyesH5869 now the wayH1870 toward the northH6828. So I lifted upH5375 mine eyesH5869 the wayH1870 toward the northH6828, and behold northwardH6828 at the gateH8179 of the altarH4196 this imageH5566 of jealousyH7068 in the entryH872.
He saidH559 furthermore unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, seestH7200 thou what they doH6213? even the greatH1419 abominationsH8441 that the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 committethH6213 here, that I should go far offH7368 from my sanctuaryH4720? but turnH7725 thee yet again, and thou shalt seeH7200 greaterH1419 abominationsH8441.
And he broughtH935 me to the doorH6607 of the courtH2691; and when I lookedH7200, behold aH259 holeH2356 in the wallH7023.
Then saidH559 he unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, digH2864 now in the wallH7023: and when I had diggedH2864 in the wallH7023, behold aH259 doorH6607.
And he saidH559 unto me, Go inH935, and beholdH7200 the wickedH7451 abominationsH8441 that they doH6213 here.
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.
And there stoodH5975 beforeH6440 them seventyH7657 menH376 of the ancientsH2205 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, and in the midstH8432 of them stoodH5975 JaazaniahH2970 the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227, with every manH376 his censerH4730 in his handH3027; and a thickH6282 cloudH6051 of incenseH7004 went upH5927.
Then saidH559 he unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, hast thou seenH7200 what the ancientsH2205 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 doH6213 in the darkH2822, every manH376 in the chambersH2315 of his imageryH4906? for they sayH559, The LORDH3068 seethH7200 us not; the LORDH3068 hath forsakenH5800 the earthH776.
He saidH559 also unto me, TurnH7725 thee yet again, and thou shalt seeH7200 greaterH1419 abominationsH8441 that they doH6213.
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.
Then saidH559 he unto me, Hast thou seenH7200 this, O sonH1121 of manH120? turnH7725 thee yet again, and thou shalt seeH7200 greaterH1419 abominationsH8441 than these.
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.
Then he saidH559 unto me, Hast thou seenH7200 this, O sonH1121 of manH120? Is it a light thingH7043 to the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 that they commitH6213 the abominationsH8441 which they commitH6213 here? for they have filledH4390 the landH776 with violenceH2555, and have returnedH7725 to provoke me to angerH3707: and, lo, they putH7971 the branchH2156 to their noseH639. {Is it…: or, Is there any thing lighter than to commit}
Therefore will I also dealH6213 in furyH2534: mine eyeH5869 shall not spareH2347, neither will I have pityH2550: and though they cryH7121 in mine earsH241 with a loudH1419 voiceH6963, yet will I not hearH8085 them.
He criedH7121 also in mine earsH241 with a loudH1419 voiceH6963, sayingH559, Cause them that have chargeH6486 over the cityH5892 to draw nearH7126, even every manH376 with his destroyingH4892 weaponH3627 in his handH3027.
And, behold, sixH8337 menH582 cameH935 from the wayH1870 of the higherH5945 gateH8179, which liethH6437 toward the northH6828, and every manH376 a slaughterH4660 weaponH3627 in his handH3027; and oneH259 manH376 amongH8432 them was clothedH3847 with linenH906, with a writer'sH5608 inkhornH7083 by his sideH4975: and they went inH935, and stoodH5975 besideH681 the brasenH5178 altarH4196. {which lieth: Heb. which is turned} {a slaughter…: Heb. a weapon of his breaking in pieces} {by his…: Heb. upon his loins}
And the gloryH3519 of the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 was gone upH5927 from the cherubH3742, whereupon he was, to the thresholdH4670 of the houseH1004. And he calledH7121 to the manH376 clothedH3847 with linenH906, which had the writer'sH5608 inkhornH7083 by his sideH4975;
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto him, Go throughH5674 the midstH8432 of the cityH5892, through the midstH8432 of JerusalemH3389, and setH8427 a markH8420 upon the foreheadsH4696 of the menH582 that sighH584 and that cryH602 for all the abominationsH8441 that be doneH6213 in the midstH8432 thereof. {set a mark: Heb. mark a mark}
And to the othersH428 he saidH559 in mine hearingH241, GoH5674 ye afterH310 him through the cityH5892, and smiteH5221: let not your eyeH5869 spareH2347, neither have ye pityH2550: {mine hearing: Heb. mine ears}
SlayH2026 utterlyH4889 oldH2205 and youngH970, both maidsH1330, and little childrenH2945, and womenH802: but come not nearH5066 any manH376 upon whom is the markH8420; and beginH2490 at my sanctuaryH4720. Then they beganH2490 at the ancientH2205 menH582 which were beforeH6440 the houseH1004. {utterly: Heb. to destruction}
And he saidH559 unto them, DefileH2930 the houseH1004, and fillH4390 the courtsH2691 with the slainH2491: go ye forthH3318. And they went forthH3318, and slewH5221 in the cityH5892.
And it came to pass, while they were slayingH5221 them, and I was leftH7604, that I fellH5307 upon my faceH6440, and criedH2199, and saidH559, AhH162 LordH136 GODH3069! wilt thou destroyH7843 all the residueH7611 of IsraelH3478 in thy pouring outH8210 of thy furyH2534 upon JerusalemH3389?
Then saidH559 he unto me, The iniquityH5771 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and JudahH3063 is exceedingH3966+H3966 greatH1419, and the landH776 is fullH4390 of bloodH1818, and the cityH5892 fullH4390 of perversenessH4297: for they sayH559, The LORDH3068 hath forsakenH5800 the earthH776, and the LORDH3068 seethH7200 not. {full of blood: Heb. filled with, etc} {perverseness: or, wresting of judgment}
And as for me also, mine eyeH5869 shall not spareH2347, neither will I have pityH2550, but I will recompenseH5414 their wayH1870 upon their headH7218.
And, behold, the manH376 clothedH3847 with linenH906, which had the inkhornH7083 by his sideH4975, reportedH7725 the matterH1697, sayingH559, I have doneH6213 as thou hast commandedH6680 me. {reported…: Heb. returned the word}
Then I lookedH7200, and, behold, in the firmamentH7549 that was above the headH7218 of the cherubimsH3742 there appearedH7200 over them as it were a sapphireH5601 stoneH68, as the appearanceH4758 of the likenessH1823 of a throneH3678.
And he spakeH559 unto the manH376 clothedH3847 with linenH906, and saidH559, Go inH935 betweenH996 the wheelsH1534, even under the cherubH3742, and fillH4390 thine handH2651 with coalsH1513 of fireH784 from betweenH996 the cherubimsH3742, and scatterH2236 them over the cityH5892. And he went inH935 in my sightH5869. {thine hand: Heb. the hollow of thine hand}
Now the cherubimsH3742 stoodH5975 on the right sideH3225 of the houseH1004, when the manH376 went inH935; and the cloudH6051 filledH4390 the innerH6442 courtH2691.
Then the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 went upH7311 from the cherubH3742, and stood over the thresholdH4670 of the houseH1004; and the houseH1004 was filledH4390 with the cloudH6051, and the courtH2691 was fullH4390 of the brightnessH5051 of the LORD'SH3068 gloryH3519. {went up: Heb. was lifted up}
And the soundH6963 of the cherubims'H3742 wingsH3671 was heardH8085 even to the outerH2435 courtH2691, as the voiceH6963 of the AlmightyH7706 GodH410 when he speakethH1696.
And it came to pass, that when he had commandedH6680 the manH376 clothedH3847 with linenH906, sayingH559, TakeH3947 fireH784 from between the wheelsH1534, from between the cherubimsH3742; then he went inH935, and stoodH5975 besideH681 the wheelsH212.
And one cherubH3742 stretched forthH7971 his handH3027 from between the cherubimsH3742 unto the fireH784 that was between the cherubimsH3742, and tookH5375 thereof, and putH5414 it into the handsH2651 of him that was clothedH3847 with linenH906: who tookH3947 it, and went outH3318. {stretched forth: Heb. sent forth}
And there appearedH7200 in the cherubimsH3742 the formH8403 of a man'sH120 handH3027 under their wingsH3671.
And when I lookedH7200, behold the fourH702 wheelsH212 byH681 the cherubimsH3742, oneH259 wheelH212 byH681 oneH259 cherubH3742, and anotherH259 wheelH212 byH681 anotherH259 cherubH3742: and the appearanceH4758 of the wheelsH212 was as the colourH5869 of a berylH8658 stoneH68.
And as for their appearancesH4758, they fourH702 had oneH259 likenessH1823, as if a wheelH212 had been in the midstH8432 of a wheelH212.
When they wentH3212, they wentH3212 upon their fourH702 sidesH7253; they turnedH5437 not as they wentH3212, but to the placeH4725 whither the headH7218 lookedH6437 they followedH3212+H310 it; they turnedH5437 not as they wentH3212.
And their whole bodyH1320, and their backsH1354, and their handsH3027, and their wingsH3671, and the wheelsH212, were fullH4392 of eyesH5869 round aboutH5439, even the wheelsH212 that they fourH702 had. {body: Heb. flesh}
As for the wheelsH212, it was criedH7121 unto them in my hearingH241, O wheelH1534. {it was…: or, they were called in my hearing, wheel, or, galgal}
And every oneH259 had fourH702 facesH6440: the firstH259 faceH6440 was the faceH6440 of a cherubH3742, and the secondH8145 faceH6440 was the faceH6440 of a manH120, and the thirdH7992 the faceH6440 of a lionH738, and the fourthH7243 the faceH6440 of an eagleH5404.
And the cherubimsH3742 were lifted upH7426. This is the living creatureH2416 that I sawH7200 by the riverH5104 of ChebarH3529.
And when the cherubimsH3742 wentH3212, the wheelsH212 wentH3212 by themH681: and when the cherubimsH3742 lifted upH5375 their wingsH3671 to mount upH7311 from the earthH776, the same wheelsH212 alsoH1992 turnedH5437 not from besideH681 them.
When they stoodH5975, these stoodH5975; and when they were lifted upH7311, these lifted upH7426 themselves also: for the spiritH7307 of the living creatureH2416 was in them. {of…: or, of life}
Then the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 departedH3318 from off the thresholdH4670 of the houseH1004, and stoodH5975 over the cherubimsH3742.
And the cherubimsH3742 lifted upH5375 their wingsH3671, and mounted upH7426 from the earthH776 in my sightH5869: when they went outH3318, the wheelsH212 also were besideH5980 them, and every one stoodH5975 at the doorH6607 of the eastH6931 gateH8179 of the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004; and the gloryH3519 of the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 was over them aboveH4605.
This is the living creatureH2416 that I sawH7200 under the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 by the riverH5104 of ChebarH3529; and I knewH3045 that they were the cherubimsH3742.
Every oneH259 had fourH702 facesH6440 apieceH259, and every oneH259 fourH702 wingsH3671; and the likenessH1823 of the handsH3027 of a manH120 was under their wingsH3671.
And the likenessH1823 of their facesH6440 was the sameH1992 facesH6440 which I sawH7200 by the riverH5104 of ChebarH3529, their appearancesH4758 and themselves: they wentH3212 every oneH376 straightH5676 forwardH6440.
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.
WoeH1945 to them that deviseH2803 iniquityH205, and workH6466 evilH7451 upon their bedsH4904! when the morningH1242 is lightH216, they practiseH6213 it, because it isH3426 in the powerH410 of their handH3027.
And they covetH2530 fieldsH7704, and take them by violenceH1497; and housesH1004, and take them awayH5375: so they oppressH6231 a manH1397 and his houseH1004, even a manH376 and his heritageH5159. {oppress: or, defraud}
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Behold, against this familyH4940 do I deviseH2803 an evilH7451, from which ye shall not removeH4185 your necksH6677; neither shall ye goH3212 haughtilyH7317: for this timeH6256 is evilH7451.
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}
Therefore thou shalt have none that shall castH7993 a cordH2256 by lotH1486 in the congregationH6951 of the LORDH3068.
ProphesyH5197 ye not, say they to them that prophesyH5197: they shall not prophesyH5197 to them, that they shall not takeH5253 shameH3639. {Prophesy ye…: or, Prophesy not as they prophesy: Heb. Drop, etc}
O thou that art namedH559 the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, is the spiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 straitenedH7114? are these his doingsH4611? do not my wordsH1697 do goodH3190 to him that walkethH1980 uprightlyH3477? {straitened: or, shortened?} {uprightly: Heb. upright?}
Even of lateH865 my peopleH5971 is risen upH6965 as an enemyH341: ye pull offH6584 the robeH145 withH4136 the garmentH8008 from them that passH5674 by securelyH983 as men averseH7725 from warH4421. {of late: Heb. yesterday} {with the: Heb. over against a}
The womenH802 of my peopleH5971 have ye cast outH1644 from their pleasantH8588 housesH1004; from their childrenH5768 have ye taken awayH3947 my gloryH1926 for everH5769. {women: or, wives}
AriseH6965 ye, and departH3212; for this is not your restH4496: because it is pollutedH2930, it shall destroyH2254 you, even with a soreH4834 destructionH2256.
IfH3863 a manH376 walkingH1980 in the spiritH7307 and falsehoodH8267 do lieH3576, saying, I will prophesyH5197 unto thee of wineH3196 and of strong drinkH7941; he shall even be the prophetH5197 of this peopleH5971. {walking…: or, walk with the wind, and lie falsely}
I will surelyH622 assembleH622, O JacobH3290, all of thee; I will surelyH6908 gatherH6908 the remnantH7611 of IsraelH3478; I will putH7760 them togetherH3162 as the sheepH6629 of BozrahH1223+H1224, as the flockH5739 in the midstH8432 of their foldH1699: they shall make great noiseH1949 by reason of the multitude of menH120.
The breakerH6555 is come upH5927 beforeH6440 them: they have broken upH6555, and have passed throughH5674 the gateH8179, and are gone outH3318 by it: and their kingH4428 shall passH5674 beforeH6440 them, and the LORDH3068 on the headH7218 of them.
Now it came to pass in the thirtiethH7970 yearH8141, in the fourthH7243 month, in the fifthH2568 day of the monthH2320, as I was amongH8432 the captivesH1473 by the riverH5104 of ChebarH3529, that the heavensH8064 were openedH6605, and I sawH7200 visionsH4759 of GodH430. {captives: Heb. captivity}
Now it came to pass in the thirtiethH7970 yearH8141, in the fourthH7243 month, in the fifthH2568 day of the monthH2320, as I was amongH8432 the captivesH1473 by the riverH5104 of ChebarH3529, that the heavensH8064 were openedH6605, and I sawH7200 visionsH4759 of GodH430. {captives: Heb. captivity}
In the fifthH2568 day of the monthH2320, which was the fifthH2549 yearH8141 of kingH4428 Jehoiachin'sH3112 captivityH1546,
The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came expressly unto EzekielH3168 the priestH3548, the sonH1121 of BuziH941, in the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778 by the riverH5104 ChebarH3529; and the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 was there upon him. {Ezekiel: Heb. Jehezkel}
And I lookedH7200, and, behold, a whirlwindH7307+H5591 cameH935 out of the northH6828, a greatH1419 cloudH6051, and a fireH784 infoldingH3947 itself, and a brightnessH5051 was aboutH5439 it, and out of the midstH8432 thereof as the colourH5869 of amberH2830, out of the midstH8432 of the fireH784. {infolding…: Heb. catching itself}
Also out of the midstH8432 thereof came the likenessH1823 of fourH702 living creaturesH2416. And this was their appearanceH4758; theyH2007 had the likenessH1823 of a manH120.
And every oneH259 had fourH702 facesH6440, and every oneH259 had fourH702 wingsH3671.
And their feetH7272 were straightH3477 feetH7272; and the soleH3709 of their feetH7272 was like the soleH3709 of a calf'sH5695 footH7272: and they sparkledH5340 like the colourH5869 of burnishedH7044 brassH5178. {straight…: Heb. a straight foot}
And they had the handsH3027 of a manH120 under their wingsH3671 on their fourH702 sidesH7253; and they fourH702 had their facesH6440 and their wingsH3671.
Their wingsH3671 were joinedH2266 oneH802 to anotherH269; they turnedH5437 not when they wentH3212; they wentH3212 every oneH376 straightH5676 forwardH6440.
As for the likenessH1823 of their facesH6440, they fourH702 had the faceH6440 of a manH120, and the faceH6440 of a lionH738, on the right sideH3225: and they fourH702 had the faceH6440 of an oxH7794 on the left sideH8040; they fourH702 also had the faceH6440 of an eagleH5404.
Thus were their facesH6440: and their wingsH3671 were stretchedH6504 upwardH4605; twoH8147 wings of every oneH376 were joinedH2266 oneH376 to anotherH376, and twoH8147 coveredH3680 their bodiesH1472. {stretched…: or, divided above}
And they wentH3212 every oneH376 straightH5676 forwardH6440: whither the spiritH7307 was to goH3212, they wentH3212; and they turnedH5437 not when they wentH3212.
As for the likenessH1823 of the living creaturesH2416, their appearanceH4758 was like burningH1197 coalsH1513 of fireH784, and like the appearanceH4758 of lampsH3940: it went up and downH1980 among the living creaturesH2416; and the fireH784 was brightH5051, and out of the fireH784 went forthH3318 lightningH1300.
And the living creaturesH2416 ranH7519 and returnedH7725 as the appearanceH4758 of a flash of lightningH965.
Now as I beheldH7200 the living creaturesH2416, behold oneH259 wheelH212 upon the earthH776 byH681 the living creaturesH2416, with his fourH702 facesH6440.
The appearanceH4758 of the wheelsH212 and their workH4639 was like unto the colourH5869 of a berylH8658: and they fourH702 had oneH259 likenessH1823: and their appearanceH4758 and their workH4639 was as it were a wheelH212 in the middleH8432 of a wheelH212.
When they wentH3212, they wentH3212 upon their fourH702 sidesH7253: and they turnedH5437 not when they wentH3212.
As for their ringsH1354, they were so highH1363 that they were dreadfulH3374; and their ringsH1354 were fullH4392 of eyesH5869 round aboutH5439 them fourH702. {and their rings: or, and their strakes}
And when the living creaturesH2416 wentH3212, the wheelsH212 wentH3212 by themH681: and when the living creaturesH2416 were lifted upH5375 from the earthH776, the wheelsH212 were lifted upH5375.
Whithersoever the spiritH7307 was to goH3212, they wentH3212, thither was their spiritH7307 to goH3212; and the wheelsH212 were lifted upH5375 over againstH5980 them: for the spiritH7307 of the living creatureH2416 was in the wheelsH212. {of…: or, of life}
When those wentH3212, these wentH3212; and when those stoodH5975, these stoodH5975; and when those were lifted upH5375 from the earthH776, the wheelsH212 were lifted upH5375 over againstH5980 them: for the spiritH7307 of the living creatureH2416 was in the wheelsH212. {of…: or, of life}
And the likenessH1823 of the firmamentH7549 upon the headsH7218 of the living creatureH2416 was as the colourH5869 of the terribleH3372 crystalH7140, stretched forthH5186 over their headsH7218 aboveH4605.
And under the firmamentH7549 were their wingsH3671 straightH3477, the oneH802 toward the otherH269: every oneH376 had twoH8147, which coveredH3680 on this sideH2007, and every oneH376 had twoH8147, which coveredH3680 on that sideH2007, their bodiesH1472.
And when they wentH3212, I heardH8085 the noiseH6963 of their wingsH3671, like the noiseH6963 of greatH7227 watersH4325, as the voiceH6963 of the AlmightyH7706, the voiceH6963 of speechH1999, as the noiseH6963 of an hostH4264: when they stoodH5975, they let downH7503 their wingsH3671.
And there was a voiceH6963 from the firmamentH7549 that was over their headsH7218, when they stoodH5975, and had let downH7503 their wingsH3671.
And aboveH4605 the firmamentH7549 that was over their headsH7218 was the likenessH1823 of a throneH3678, as the appearanceH4758 of a sapphireH5601 stoneH68: and upon the likenessH1823 of the throneH3678 was the likenessH1823 as the appearanceH4758 of a manH120 aboveH4605 upon it.
And I sawH7200 as the colourH5869 of amberH2830, as the appearanceH4758 of fireH784 round aboutH5439 withinH1004 it, from the appearanceH4758 of his loinsH4975 even upwardH4605, and from the appearanceH4758 of his loinsH4975 even downwardH4295, I sawH7200 as it were the appearanceH4758 of fireH784, and it had brightnessH5051 round aboutH5439.
As the appearanceH4758 of the bowH7198 that is in the cloudH6051 in the dayH3117 of rainH1653, so was the appearanceH4758 of the brightnessH5051 round aboutH5439. This was the appearanceH4758 of the likenessH1823 of the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068. And when I sawH7200 it, I fellH5307 upon my faceH6440, and I heardH8085 a voiceH6963 of one that spakeH1696.
Now it came to pass in the thirtiethH7970 yearH8141, in the fourthH7243 month, in the fifthH2568 day of the monthH2320, as I was amongH8432 the captivesH1473 by the riverH5104 of ChebarH3529, that the heavensH8064 were openedH6605, and I sawH7200 visionsH4759 of GodH430. {captives: Heb. captivity}
In the fifthH2568 day of the monthH2320, which was the fifthH2549 yearH8141 of kingH4428 Jehoiachin'sH3112 captivityH1546,
The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came expressly unto EzekielH3168 the priestH3548, the sonH1121 of BuziH941, in the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778 by the riverH5104 ChebarH3529; and the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 was there upon him. {Ezekiel: Heb. Jehezkel}
And I lookedH7200, and, behold, a whirlwindH7307+H5591 cameH935 out of the northH6828, a greatH1419 cloudH6051, and a fireH784 infoldingH3947 itself, and a brightnessH5051 was aboutH5439 it, and out of the midstH8432 thereof as the colourH5869 of amberH2830, out of the midstH8432 of the fireH784. {infolding…: Heb. catching itself}
Also out of the midstH8432 thereof came the likenessH1823 of fourH702 living creaturesH2416. And this was their appearanceH4758; theyH2007 had the likenessH1823 of a manH120.
And every oneH259 had fourH702 facesH6440, and every oneH259 had fourH702 wingsH3671.
And their feetH7272 were straightH3477 feetH7272; and the soleH3709 of their feetH7272 was like the soleH3709 of a calf'sH5695 footH7272: and they sparkledH5340 like the colourH5869 of burnishedH7044 brassH5178. {straight…: Heb. a straight foot}
And they had the handsH3027 of a manH120 under their wingsH3671 on their fourH702 sidesH7253; and they fourH702 had their facesH6440 and their wingsH3671.
Their wingsH3671 were joinedH2266 oneH802 to anotherH269; they turnedH5437 not when they wentH3212; they wentH3212 every oneH376 straightH5676 forwardH6440.
As for the likenessH1823 of their facesH6440, they fourH702 had the faceH6440 of a manH120, and the faceH6440 of a lionH738, on the right sideH3225: and they fourH702 had the faceH6440 of an oxH7794 on the left sideH8040; they fourH702 also had the faceH6440 of an eagleH5404.
Thus were their facesH6440: and their wingsH3671 were stretchedH6504 upwardH4605; twoH8147 wings of every oneH376 were joinedH2266 oneH376 to anotherH376, and twoH8147 coveredH3680 their bodiesH1472. {stretched…: or, divided above}
And they wentH3212 every oneH376 straightH5676 forwardH6440: whither the spiritH7307 was to goH3212, they wentH3212; and they turnedH5437 not when they wentH3212.
As for the likenessH1823 of the living creaturesH2416, their appearanceH4758 was like burningH1197 coalsH1513 of fireH784, and like the appearanceH4758 of lampsH3940: it went up and downH1980 among the living creaturesH2416; and the fireH784 was brightH5051, and out of the fireH784 went forthH3318 lightningH1300.
And the living creaturesH2416 ranH7519 and returnedH7725 as the appearanceH4758 of a flash of lightningH965.
Now as I beheldH7200 the living creaturesH2416, behold oneH259 wheelH212 upon the earthH776 byH681 the living creaturesH2416, with his fourH702 facesH6440.
The appearanceH4758 of the wheelsH212 and their workH4639 was like unto the colourH5869 of a berylH8658: and they fourH702 had oneH259 likenessH1823: and their appearanceH4758 and their workH4639 was as it were a wheelH212 in the middleH8432 of a wheelH212.
When they wentH3212, they wentH3212 upon their fourH702 sidesH7253: and they turnedH5437 not when they wentH3212.
As for their ringsH1354, they were so highH1363 that they were dreadfulH3374; and their ringsH1354 were fullH4392 of eyesH5869 round aboutH5439 them fourH702. {and their rings: or, and their strakes}
And when the living creaturesH2416 wentH3212, the wheelsH212 wentH3212 by themH681: and when the living creaturesH2416 were lifted upH5375 from the earthH776, the wheelsH212 were lifted upH5375.
Whithersoever the spiritH7307 was to goH3212, they wentH3212, thither was their spiritH7307 to goH3212; and the wheelsH212 were lifted upH5375 over againstH5980 them: for the spiritH7307 of the living creatureH2416 was in the wheelsH212. {of…: or, of life}
When those wentH3212, these wentH3212; and when those stoodH5975, these stoodH5975; and when those were lifted upH5375 from the earthH776, the wheelsH212 were lifted upH5375 over againstH5980 them: for the spiritH7307 of the living creatureH2416 was in the wheelsH212. {of…: or, of life}
And the likenessH1823 of the firmamentH7549 upon the headsH7218 of the living creatureH2416 was as the colourH5869 of the terribleH3372 crystalH7140, stretched forthH5186 over their headsH7218 aboveH4605.
And under the firmamentH7549 were their wingsH3671 straightH3477, the oneH802 toward the otherH269: every oneH376 had twoH8147, which coveredH3680 on this sideH2007, and every oneH376 had twoH8147, which coveredH3680 on that sideH2007, their bodiesH1472.
And when they wentH3212, I heardH8085 the noiseH6963 of their wingsH3671, like the noiseH6963 of greatH7227 watersH4325, as the voiceH6963 of the AlmightyH7706, the voiceH6963 of speechH1999, as the noiseH6963 of an hostH4264: when they stoodH5975, they let downH7503 their wingsH3671.
And there was a voiceH6963 from the firmamentH7549 that was over their headsH7218, when they stoodH5975, and had let downH7503 their wingsH3671.
And aboveH4605 the firmamentH7549 that was over their headsH7218 was the likenessH1823 of a throneH3678, as the appearanceH4758 of a sapphireH5601 stoneH68: and upon the likenessH1823 of the throneH3678 was the likenessH1823 as the appearanceH4758 of a manH120 aboveH4605 upon it.
And I sawH7200 as the colourH5869 of amberH2830, as the appearanceH4758 of fireH784 round aboutH5439 withinH1004 it, from the appearanceH4758 of his loinsH4975 even upwardH4605, and from the appearanceH4758 of his loinsH4975 even downwardH4295, I sawH7200 as it were the appearanceH4758 of fireH784, and it had brightnessH5051 round aboutH5439.
As the appearanceH4758 of the bowH7198 that is in the cloudH6051 in the dayH3117 of rainH1653, so was the appearanceH4758 of the brightnessH5051 round aboutH5439. This was the appearanceH4758 of the likenessH1823 of the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068. And when I sawH7200 it, I fellH5307 upon my faceH6440, and I heardH8085 a voiceH6963 of one that spakeH1696.
AndG2532 I turnedG1994 to seeG991 the voiceG5456 thatG3748 spakeG2980 withG3326 meG1700. AndG2532 being turnedG1994, I sawG1492 sevenG2033 goldenG5552 candlesticksG3087;
AndG2532 inG1722 the midstG3319 of the sevenG2033 candlesticksG3087 one likeG3664 unto the SonG5207 of manG444, clothed with a garmentG1746 down to the footG4158, andG2532 girtG4024 aboutG4314 the papsG3149 with a goldenG5552 girdleG2223.
HisG846 headG2776 andG2532 his hairsG2359 were whiteG3022 likeG5616 woolG2053, as whiteG3022 asG5613 snowG5510; andG2532 hisG846 eyesG3788 were asG5613 a flameG5395 of fireG4442;
AndG2532 hisG846 feetG4228 likeG3664 unto fine brassG5474, asG5613 if they burnedG4448 inG1722 a furnaceG2575; andG2532 hisG846 voiceG5456 asG5613 the soundG5456 of manyG4183 watersG5204.
AndG2532 he hadG2192 inG1722 hisG846 rightG1188 handG5495 sevenG2033 starsG792: andG2532 out ofG1537 hisG846 mouthG4750 wentG1607 a sharpG3691 twoedgedG1366 swordG4501: andG2532 hisG846 countenanceG3799 was asG5613 the sunG2246 shinethG5316 inG1722 hisG846 strengthG1411.
ThyG4675 kingdomG932 comeG2064. ThyG4675 willG2307 be doneG1096 inG1909 earthG1093, asG2532+G5613 it is inG1722 heavenG3772.
And he brought outH3318 the groveH842 from the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, withoutH2351 JerusalemH3389, unto the brookH5158 KidronH6939, and burnedH8313 it at the brookH5158 KidronH6939, and stamped it smallH1854 to powderH6083, and castH7993 the powderH6083 thereof upon the gravesH6913 of the childrenH1121 of the peopleH5971.
