Ezekiel 14:13-23

13“SonH1121 of manH120, ifH3588 a landH776 sinsH2398 against Me by acting unfaithfullyH4603H4604, and I stretch outH5186 My handH3027 against itH5921 to cut offH7665 its supplyH42941 of foodH3899, to sendH7971 famineH7458 upon it, and to cut offH3772 from itH4480 both manH120 and beastH929, 14then even if theseH428 threeH7969 menH582—NoahH5146, DanielH1840, and JobH347—wereH1961 in itH8432, their righteousnessH1992H6666 could deliverH5337 only themselvesH5315, declaresH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.

15Or ifH3863 I send wildH7451H5674 beastsH2416 through the landH776 to leave it childlessH7921 and desolateH8077, with no manH1097 passing through itH5674 for fearH6440 of the beastsH2416, 16then as surelyH589 as I liveH2416, declaresH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, even if theseH428 threeH7969 menH582 were in itH8432, they could notH518 deliverH5337 their own sonsH1121 orH518 daughtersH1323. TheyH1992 aloneH905 would be deliveredH5337, but the landH776 would beH1961 desolateH8077.

17OrH176 if I bringH935 a swordH2719 againstH5921 thatH1931 landH776 and sayH559, ‘Let a swordH2719 passH5674 through itH776,’ so that I cut offH3772 from itH4480 both manH120 and beastH929, 18then as surelyH589 as I liveH2416, declaresH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, even if theseH428 threeH7969 menH582 were in itH8432, they could notH3808 deliverH5337 their own sonsH1121 or daughtersH1323. TheyH1992 aloneH905 would be deliveredH5337.

19OrH176 if I sendH7971 a plagueH1698 intoH413 thatH1931 landH776 and pour outH8210 My wrathH2534 upon itH5921 through bloodshedH1818, cutting offH3772 from itH4480 both manH120 and beastH929, 20then as surelyH589 as I liveH2416, declaresH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069, even if NoahH5146, DanielH1840, and JobH347 were in itH8432, they could notH518 deliverH5337 their own sonsH1121 orH518 daughtersH1323. Their righteousnessH1992H6666 could deliverH5337 only themselvesH5315.

21ForH3588 this is whatH3541 the LordH136 GODH3069 saysH559: ‘How much worseH637 will it be whenH3588 I sendH7971 againstH413 JerusalemH3389 My fourH702 direH7451 judgmentsH8201—swordH2719, famineH7458, wildH7451 beastsH2416, and plagueH1698—in order to cut offH3772 from itH4480 both manH120 and beastH929?

22Yet, beholdH2009, some survivorsH6413 will be leftH3498 in it—sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323H2005 who will be brought outH3318. They will come outH3318 to youH413, and when you seeH7200 their conductH1870 and actionsH5949, you will be comfortedH5162 regardingH5921 the disasterH7451 I have broughtH935 uponH5921 JerusalemH3389—allH3605 thatH834 I have broughtH935 upon itH5921. 23They will bring you consolationH5162 whenH3588 you seeH7200 their conductH1870 and actionsH5949, and you will knowH3045 thatH3588 it was notH3808 without causeH2600 that I have doneH6213 allH3605 these things within it,’ declaresH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.”
