Ezekiel 20:1-8

1And it cameH935 to passH935 in the seventhH7637 yearH8141, in the fifthH2549 monthH2320, the tenthH6218 dayH2320 of the monthH2320, that certainH376 of the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 cameH935 to inquireH1875 of the LORDH3068, and satH3427 beforeH6440 meH6440.

2And the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 cameH1961 unto meH413, sayingH559,

3SonH1121 of manH120, speakH1696 unto the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478, and sayH559 unto them, ThusH3541 saith the LordH136 GODH136: Are ye comeH935 to inquireH1875 of meH413? As I liveH2416, saith the LordH136 GODH136, I will notH518 be inquiredH1875 of by youH859.

4Wilt thou judgeH8199 them, sonH1121 of manH120, wilt thou judgeH8199 them? Cause them to knowH3045 the abominationsH8441 of their fathersH1;

5and sayH559 unto them, ThusH3541 saith the LordH3068 GODH430: In the dayH3117 when I choseH977 IsraelH3478, and liftedH5375 upH5375 mine handH3027 unto the seedH2233 of the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, and madeH3045 myselfH589 knownH3045 unto them in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, when I liftedH5375 upH5375 mine handH3027 unto them, SayingH559, I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430;

6in that dayH3117 I liftedH5375 upH5375 mine handH3027 unto them, to bringH3318 them forthH3318 outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 intoH413 a landH776 that I had espied for them, flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706, whichH834 is the glory of allH3605 landsH776:

7And I saidH559 unto them, CastH7993 ye awayH7993 everyH376 manH376 the abominationsH8251 of his eyesH5869, and defileH2930 notH408 yourselves with the idolsH1544 of EgyptH4714; I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430.

8But they rebelledH4784 againstH5921 meH413, and would notH3808 hearken unto meH413; they didH3808 notH3808 everyH376 manH376 castH7993 awayH7993 the abominationsH8251 of their eyesH5869, neitherH3808 didH3808 they forsakeH5800 the idolsH1544 of EgyptH4714: then I saidH559 I would pourH8210 outH8210 my furyH2534 uponH5921 them, to accomplishH3615 my angerH639 againstH5921 them in the midstH8432 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
