Ezekiel 7:1-15
1Moreover the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
2Also, thou sonH1121 of manH120, thus saithH559 the LordH136 YhwhH3069 unto the landH127 of IsraelH3478; An endH7093, the endH7093 is comeH935 upon the fourH702 cornersH3671 of the landH776.
3Now is the endH7093 come upon thee, and I will sendH7971 mine angerH639 upon thee, and will judgeH8199 thee according to thy waysH1870, and will recompenseH5414 upon thee all thine abominationsH8441.1
4And mine eyeH5869 shall not spareH2347 thee, neither will I have pityH2550: but I will recompenseH5414 thy waysH1870 upon thee, and thine abominationsH8441 shall be in the midstH8432 of thee: and ye shall knowH3045 that I am YhwhH3068.
5Thus saithH559 the LordH136 YhwhH3069; An evilH7451, an onlyH259 evilH7451, behold, is comeH935.
6An endH7093 is comeH935, the endH7093 is comeH935: it watchethH6974 for thee; behold, it is comeH935.2
7The morningH6843 is comeH935 unto thee, O thou that dwellestH3427 in the landH776: the timeH6256 is comeH935, the dayH3117 of troubleH4103 is nearH7138, and not the sounding againH1906 of the mountainsH2022.3
8Now will I shortlyH7138 pour outH8210 my furyH2534 upon thee, and accomplishH3615 mine angerH639 upon thee: and I will judgeH8199 thee according to thy waysH1870, and will recompenseH5414 thee for all thine abominationsH8441.
9And 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 YhwhH3068 that smitethH5221.4
10Behold the dayH3117, behold, it is comeH935: the morningH6843 is gone forthH3318; the rodH4294 hath blossomedH6692, prideH2087 hath buddedH6524.
11ViolenceH2555 is risen upH6965 into a rodH4294 of wickednessH7562: none of them shall remain, nor of their multitudeH1995, nor of anyH1991 of theirs: neither shall there be wailingH5089 for them.5
12The timeH6256 is comeH935, the dayH3117 draweth nearH5060: let not the buyerH7069 rejoiceH8055, nor the sellerH4376 mournH56: for wrathH2740 is upon all the multitudeH1995 thereof.
13For the sellerH4376 shall not returnH7725 to that which is soldH4465, although they were yet aliveH2416: for the visionH2377 is touching the whole multitudeH1995 thereof, which shall not returnH7725; neither shall anyH376 strengthenH2388 himself in the iniquityH5771 of his lifeH2416.678
14They have blownH8628 the trumpetH8619, even to make all readyH3559; but none goethH1980 to the battleH4421: for my wrathH2740 is upon all the multitudeH1995 thereof.
15The swordH2719 is withoutH2351, and the pestilenceH1698 and the famineH7458 withinH1004: he that is in the fieldH7704 shall dieH4191 with the swordH2719; and he that is in the cityH5892, famineH7458 and pestilenceH1698 shall devourH398 him.
