Ezekiel 11

1Moreover the SpiritH7307 liftedH5375 me up, and broughtH935 me unto the eastH6921 gateH8179 of Jehovah’s houseH1004, which looketh eastward: and behold, at the doorH6607 of the gateH8179 fiveH2568 and twentyH6242 menH376; and I sawH7200 in the midstH8432 of them JaazaniahH2970 the sonH1121 of AzzurH5809, and PelatiahH6410 the sonH1121 of BenaiahH1141, princesH8269 of the peopleH5971. 2And he saidH559 unto me, SonH1121 of manH376, these are the menH376 that devise iniquity, and that give wicked counselH6098 in this cityH5892; 3that sayH559, The time is not near to buildH1129 housesH1004: this city is the caldron, and we are the fleshH1320. 4ThereforeH3651 prophesyH5012 against them, prophesyH5012, O sonH1121 of manH120.

5And the SpiritH7307 of Jehovah fellH5307 upon me, and he saidH559 unto me, Speak, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah: ThusH3541 have ye saidH559, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; for I knowH3045 the things that come into your mind. 6Ye have multipliedH7235 your slainH2491 in this cityH5892, and ye have filledH4390 the streetsH2351 thereof with the slainH2491. 7ThereforeH3651 thusH3541 saith the LordH136 Jehovah: Your slainH2491 whom ye have laid in the midstH8432 of it, they are the fleshH1320, and this city is the caldron; but ye shall be broughtH3318 forthH3318 out of the midstH8432 of it. 8Ye have fearedH3372 the swordH2719; and I will bringH935 the swordH2719 upon you, saith the LordH136 Jehovah. 9And I will bringH3318 you forthH3318 out of the midstH8432 thereof, and deliver you into the handsH3027 of strangersH2114, and will execute judgmentsH8201 among you. 10Ye shall fallH5307 by the swordH2719; I will judgeH8199 you in the borderH1366 of IsraelH3478; and ye shall knowH3045 that I am Jehovah. 11This city shall not beH1961 your caldron, neither shall ye beH1961 the fleshH1320 in the midstH8432 thereof; I will judgeH8199 you in the borderH1366 of IsraelH3478; 12and ye shall knowH3045 that I am Jehovah: for ye have not walkedH1980 in my statutesH2706, neither have ye executed mine ordinancesH4941, but have done after the ordinancesH4941 of the nationsH1471 that are roundH5439 about you.

13And it came to pass, when I prophesiedH5012, that PelatiahH6410 the sonH1121 of BenaiahH1141 diedH4191. Then fellH5307 I downH5307 upon my faceH6440, and criedH2199 with a loud voiceH6963, and saidH559, Ah LordH136 Jehovah! wilt thou makeH6213 a full end of the remnantH7611 of IsraelH3478?

14And the wordH1697 of Jehovah came unto me, sayingH559, 15SonH1121 of manH376, thy brethren, even thy brethren, the menH376 of thy kindred, and all the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, all of them, are they unto whom the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 have saidH559, Get you farH7368 from Jehovah; unto us is this landH776 givenH5414 for a possessionH4181. 16ThereforeH3651 sayH559, ThusH3541 saith the LordH136 Jehovah: Whereas I have removedH7368 them farH7368 off among the nationsH1471, and whereas I have scatteredH6327 them among the countries, yet will I beH1961 to them a sanctuaryH4720 for a littleH4592 while in the countries whereH834 they are comeH935. 17ThereforeH3651 sayH559, ThusH3541 saith the LordH136 Jehovah: I will gatherH6908 you from the peoplesH5971, and assemble you out of the countries whereH834 ye have been scatteredH6327, and I will giveH5414 you the landH776 of IsraelH3478. 18And they shall comeH935 thither, and they shall take awayH5493 all the detestableH8251 things thereof and all the abominationsH8441 thereof from thence. 19And I will giveH5414 them oneH259 heartH3820, and I will putH5414 a newH2319 spiritH7307 within you; and I will take the stony heartH3820 out of their fleshH1320, and will giveH5414 them a heartH3820 of fleshH1320; 20that they may walk in my statutesH2708, and keepH8104 mine ordinancesH4941, and do them: and they shall beH1961 my peopleH5971, and I will beH1961 their GodH430. 21But as for them whose heartH3820 walketh after the heartH3820 of their detestableH8251 thingsH8251 and their abominationsH8441, I will bring their wayH1870 upon their own headsH7218, saith the LordH136 Jehovah.

22Then did the cherubimH3742 liftH5375 up their wingsH3671, and the wheelsH212 were beside them; and the gloryH3519 of the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 was over them above. 23And the gloryH3519 of Jehovah wentH5927 up from the midstH8432 of the cityH5892, and stoodH5975 upon the mountainH2022 which is on the eastH6924 side of the cityH5892. 24And the SpiritH7307 liftedH5375 me up, and broughtH935 me in the visionH4758 by the SpiritH7307 of GodH430 into ChaldeaH3778, to them of the captivity. So the visionH4758 that I had seenH7200 wentH935 up from me. 25Then I spake unto them of the captivity all the thingsH1697 that Jehovah had showedH7200 me.
