The Book of Ezekiel (WEB)
7:1 Moreover the word of Yahweh came to me, saying, 7:2You, son of man, thus says the Lord
Yahweh to the land of Israel, An end: the end is come on the four corners of the land. 7:3Now is the
end on you, and I will send my anger on you, and will judge you according to your ways; and I
will bring on you all your abominations. 7:4My eye shall not spare you, neither will I have pity; but
I will bring your ways on you, and your abominations shall be in the midst of you: and you shall
know that I am Yahweh. 7:5Thus says the Lord Yahweh: An evil, an only evil; behold, it comes.
7:6An end is come, the end is come; it awakes against you; behold, it comes. 7:7Your doom is come
to you, inhabitant of the land: the time is come, the day is near, a day of tumult, and not of joyful
shouting, on the mountains. 7:8Now will I shortly pour out my wrath on you, and accomplish my
anger against you, and will judge you according to your ways; and I will bring on you all your
abominations. 7:9My eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity: I will bring on you according to
your ways; and your abominations shall be in the midst of you; and you shall know that I,
Yahweh, do strike. 7:10Behold, the day, behold, it comes: your doom is gone forth; the rod has
blossomed, pride has budded. 7:11Violence is risen up into a rod of wickedness; none of them shall
remain, nor of their multitude, nor of their wealth: neither shall there be eminency among them.
7:12The time is come, the day draws near: don't let the buyer rejoice, nor the seller mourn; for wrath
is on all the multitude of it. 7:13For the seller shall not return to that which is sold, although they be
yet alive: for the vision is touching the whole multitude of it, none shall return; neither shall any
strengthen himself in the iniquity of his life. 7:14They have blown the trumpet, and have made all
ready; but none goes to the battle; for my wrath is on all the multitude of it. 7:15The sword is
outside, and the pestilence and the famine within: he who is in the field shall die with the sword:
and he who is in the city, famine and pestilence shall devour him. 7:16But those of those who escape
shall escape, and shall be on the mountains like doves of the valleys, all of them moaning, every
one in his iniquity. 7:17All hands shall be feeble, and all knees shall be weak as water. 7:18They shall
also gird themselves with sackcloth, and horror shall cover them; and shame shall be on all faces,
and baldness on all their heads. 7:19They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be
as an unclean thing; their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the
wrath of Yahweh: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels; because it has been
the stumbling block of their iniquity. 7:20As for the beauty of his ornament, he set it in majesty; but
they made the images of their abominations and their detestable things therein: therefore have I
made it to them as an unclean thing. 7:21I will give it into the hands of the strangers for a prey, and
to the wicked of the earth for a spoil; and they shall profane it. 7:22My face will I turn also from
them, and they shall profane my secret place; and robbers shall enter into it, and profane it.
7:23Make the chain; for the land is full of bloody crimes, and the city is full of violence. 7:24Therefore
I will bring the worst of the nations, and they shall possess their houses: I will also make the pride
of the strong to cease; and their holy places shall be profaned. 7:25Destruction comes; and they shall
seek peace, and there shall be none. 7:26Mischief shall come on mischief, and rumor shall be on
rumor; and they shall seek a vision of the prophet; but the law shall perish from the priest, and
counsel from the elders. 7:27The king shall mourn, and the prince shall be clothed with desolation,
and the hands of the people of the land shall be troubled: I will do to them after their way, and
according to their deserts will I judge them; and they shall know that I am Yahweh.
