Ezekiel  |  Top  | Up  |  Down
33:1 Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
33:2 Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them,
 When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man of
 their coasts, and set him for their watchman:
33:3 If when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and
 warn the people;
33:4 Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not
 warning; if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his
 own head.
33:5 He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood
 shall be upon him.  But he that taketh warning shall deliver his soul.
33:6 But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and
 the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from
 among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require
 at the watchman's hand.
33:7 So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of
 Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from
 me.
33:8 When I say unto the wicked, O wicked man, thou shalt surely die; if
 thou dost not speak to warn the wicked from his way, that wicked man
 shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand.
33:9 Nevertheless, if thou warn the wicked of his way to turn from it; if he
 do not turn from his way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast
 delivered thy soul.
33:10 Therefore, O thou son of man, speak unto the house of Israel; Thus ye
 speak, saying, If our transgressions and our sins be upon us, and we pine
 away in them, how should we then live?
33:11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in
 the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: 
 turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of
 Israel?
33:12 Therefore, thou son of man, say unto the children of thy people, The
 righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him in the day of his
 transgression:  as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not fall
 thereby in the day that he turneth from his wickedness; neither shall the
 righteous be able to live for his righteousness in the day that he
 sinneth.
33:13 When I shall say to the righteous, that he shall surely live; if he
 trust to his own righteousness, and commit iniquity, all his
 righteousnesses shall not be remembered; but for his iniquity that he hath
 committed, he shall die for it.
33:14 Again, when I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; if he turn
 from his sin, and do that which is lawful and right;
33:15 If the wicked restore the pledge, give again that he had robbed,
 walk in the statutes of life, without committing iniquity; he shall surely
 live, he shall not die.
33:16 None of his sins that he hath committed shall be mentioned unto him: 
 he hath done that which is lawful and right; he shall surely live.
33:17 Yet the children of thy people say, The way of the Lord is not equal: 
 but as for them, their way is not equal.
33:18 When the righteous turneth from his righteousness, and committeth
 iniquity, he shall even die thereby.
33:19 But if the wicked turn from his wickedness, and do that which is
 lawful and right, he shall live thereby.
33:20 Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equal.  O ye house of Israel, I
 will judge you every one after his ways.
33:21 And it came to pass in the twelfth year of our captivity, in the tenth
 month, in the fifth day of the month, that one that had escaped out
 of Jerusalem came unto me, saying, The city is smitten.
33:22 Now the hand of the LORD was upon me in the evening, afore he that was
 escaped came; and had opened my mouth, until he came to me in the morning;
 and my mouth was opened, and I was no more dumb.
33:23 Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
33:24 Son of man, they that inhabit those wastes of the land of Israel
 speak, saying, Abraham was one, and he inherited the land:  but we are
 many; the land is given us for inheritance.
33:25 Wherefore say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Ye eat with the
 blood, and lift up your eyes toward your idols, and shed blood:  and shall
 ye possess the land?
33:26 Ye stand upon your sword, ye work abomination, and ye defile every one
 his neighbour's wife:  and shall ye possess the land?
33:27 Say thou thus unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; As I live, surely
 they that are in the wastes shall fall by the sword, and him that is in
 the open field will I give to the beasts to be devoured, and they that be
 in the forts and in the caves shall die of the pestilence.
33:28 For I will lay the land most desolate, and the pomp of her strength
 shall cease; and the mountains of Israel shall be desolate, that none shall
 pass through.
33:29 Then shall they know that I am the LORD, when I have laid the land
 most desolate because of all their abominations which they have committed.
33:30 Also, thou son of man, the children of thy people still are talking
 against thee by the walls and in the doors of the houses, and speak one to
 another, every one to his brother, saying, Come, I pray you, and hear what
 is the word that cometh forth from the LORD.
33:31 And they come unto thee as the people cometh, and they sit before thee
 as my people, and they hear thy words, but they will not do them:  for
 with their mouth they show much love, but their heart goeth after their
 covetousness.
33:32 And, lo, thou art unto them as a very lovely song of one that hath a
 pleasant voice, and can play well on an instrument:  for they hear thy
 words, but they do them not.
33:33 And when this cometh to pass, (lo, it will come,) then shall they know
 that a prophet hath been among them.

34:1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
34:2 Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and say
 unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD unto the shepherds; Woe be to the
 shepherds of Israel that do feed themselves!  should not the shepherds feed
 the flocks?
34:3 Ye eat the fat, and ye clothe you with the wool, ye kill them that are
 fed:  but ye feed not the flock.
34:4 The diseased have ye not strengthened, neither have ye healed that
 which was sick, neither have ye bound up that which was broken, neither
 have ye brought again that which was driven away, neither have ye sought
 that which was lost; but with force and with cruelty have ye ruled them.
34:5 And they were scattered, because there is no shepherd:  and they
 became meat to all the beasts of the field, when they were scattered.
34:6 My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and upon every high hill: 
 yea, my flock was scattered upon all the face of the earth, and none did
 search or seek after them.
34:7 Therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD;
34:8 As I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely because my flock became a prey,
 and my flock became meat to every beast of the field, because there was
 no shepherd, neither did my shepherds search for my flock, but the
 shepherds fed themselves, and fed not my flock;
34:9 Therefore, O ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD;
34:10 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against the shepherds; and I
 will require my flock at their hand, and cause them to cease from feeding
 the flock; neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more; for I will
 deliver my flock from their mouth, that they may not be meat for them.
34:11 For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I, even I, will both search my
 sheep, and seek them out.
34:12 As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the day that he is among his
 sheep that are scattered; so will I seek out my sheep, and will deliver
 them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and
 dark day.
34:13 And I will bring them out from the people, and gather them from the
 countries, and will bring them to their own land, and feed them upon the
 mountains of Israel by the rivers, and in all the inhabited places of the
 country.
34:14 I will feed them in a good pasture, and upon the high mountains of
 Israel shall their fold be:  there shall they lie in a good fold, and in
 a fat pasture shall they feed upon the mountains of Israel.
34:15 I will feed my flock, and I will cause them to lie down, saith the
 Lord GOD.
34:16 I will seek that which was lost, and bring again that which was driven
 away, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen that
 which was sick:  but I will destroy the fat and the strong; I will feed
 them with judgment.
34:17 And as for you, O my flock, thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I judge
 between cattle and cattle, between the rams and the he goats.
34:18 Seemeth it a small thing unto you to have eaten up the good pasture,
 but ye must tread down with your feet the residue of your pastures?  and to
 have drunk of the deep waters, but ye must foul the residue with your feet?
34:19 And as for my flock, they eat that which ye have trodden with your
 feet; and they drink that which ye have fouled with your feet.
34:20 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD unto them; Behold, I, even I, will
 judge between the fat cattle and between the lean cattle.
34:21 Because ye have thrust with side and with shoulder, and pushed all the
 diseased with your horns, till ye have scattered them abroad;
34:22 Therefore will I save my flock, and they shall no more be a prey; and
 I will judge between cattle and cattle.
34:23 And I will set up one shepherd over them, and he shall feed them,
 even my servant David; he shall feed them, and he shall be their
 shepherd.
34:24 And I the LORD will be their God, and my servant David a prince among
 them; I the LORD have spoken it.
34:25 And I will make with them a covenant of peace, and will cause the evil
 beasts to cease out of the land:  and they shall dwell safely in the
 wilderness, and sleep in the woods.
34:26 And I will make them and the places round about my hill a blessing;
 and I will cause the shower to come down in his season; there shall be
 showers of blessing.
34:27 And the tree of the field shall yield her fruit, and the earth shall
 yield her increase, and they shall be safe in their land, and shall know
 that I am the LORD, when I have broken the bands of their yoke, and
 delivered them out of the hand of those that served themselves of them.
34:28 And they shall no more be a prey to the heathen, neither shall the
 beast of the land devour them; but they shall dwell safely, and none shall
 make them afraid.
34:29 And I will raise up for them a plant of renown, and they shall be no
 more consumed with hunger in the land, neither bear the shame of the
 heathen any more.
34:30 Thus shall they know that I the LORD their God am with them, and
 that they, even the house of Israel, are my people, saith the Lord
 GOD.
34:31 And ye my flock, the flock of my pasture, are men, and I am your
 God, saith the Lord GOD.

35:1 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
35:2 Son of man, set thy face against mount Seir, and prophesy against it,
35:3 And say unto it, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, O mount Seir, I am
 against thee, and I will stretch out mine hand against thee, and I will
 make thee most desolate.
35:4 I will lay thy cities waste, and thou shalt be desolate, and thou shalt
 know that I am the LORD.
35:5 Because thou hast had a perpetual hatred, and hast shed the blood of
 the children of Israel by the force of the sword in the time of their
 calamity, in the time that their iniquity had an end:
35:6 Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord GOD, I will prepare thee unto
 blood, and blood shall pursue thee:  sith thou hast not hated blood, even
 blood shall pursue thee.
35:7 Thus will I make mount Seir most desolate, and cut off from it him that
 passeth out and him that returneth.
35:8 And I will fill his mountains with his slain men:  in thy hills, and
 in thy valleys, and in all thy rivers, shall they fall that are slain with
 the sword.
35:9 I will make thee perpetual desolations, and thy cities shall not
 return:  and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
35:10 Because thou hast said, These two nations and these two countries
 shall be mine, and we will possess it; whereas the LORD was there:
35:11 Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord GOD, I will even do according
 to thine anger, and according to thine envy which thou hast used out of thy
 hatred against them; and I will make myself known among them, when I have
 judged thee.
35:12 And thou shalt know that I am the LORD, and that I have heard all
 thy blasphemies which thou hast spoken against the mountains of Israel,
 saying, They are laid desolate, they are given us to consume.
35:13 Thus with your mouth ye have boasted against me, and have multiplied
 your words against me:  I have heard them.
35:14 Thus saith the Lord GOD; When the whole earth rejoiceth, I will make
 thee desolate.
35:15 As thou didst rejoice at the inheritance of the house of Israel,
 because it was desolate, so will I do unto thee:  thou shalt be desolate, O
 mount Seir, and all Idumea, even all of it:  and they shall know that I
 am the LORD.

36:1 Also, thou son of man, prophesy unto the mountains of Israel, and say,
 Ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of the LORD:
36:2 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because the enemy hath said against you, Aha,
 even the ancient high places are ours in possession:
36:3 Therefore prophesy and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because they have
 made you desolate, and swallowed you up on every side, that ye might be a
 possession unto the residue of the heathen, and ye are taken up in the lips
 of talkers, and are an infamy of the people:
36:4 Therefore, ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord GOD; Thus
 saith the Lord GOD to the mountains, and to the hills, to the rivers, and
 to the valleys, to the desolate wastes, and to the cities that are
 forsaken, which became a prey and derision to the residue of the heathen
 that are round about;
36:5 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Surely in the fire of my jealousy
 have I spoken against the residue of the heathen, and against all Idumea,
 which have appointed my land into their possession with the joy of all
 their heart, with despiteful minds, to cast it out for a prey.
36:6 Prophesy therefore concerning the land of Israel, and say unto the
 mountains, and to the hills, to the rivers, and to the valleys, Thus saith
 the Lord GOD; Behold, I have spoken in my jealousy and in my fury, because
 ye have borne the shame of the heathen:
36:7 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; I have lifted up mine hand, Surely
 the heathen that are about you, they shall bear their shame.
36:8 But ye, O mountains of Israel, ye shall shoot forth your branches, and
 yield your fruit to my people of Israel; for they are at hand to come.
36:9 For, behold, I am for you, and I will turn unto you, and ye shall be
 tilled and sown:
36:10 And I will multiply men upon you, all the house of Israel, even all
 of it:  and the cities shall be inhabited, and the wastes shall be builded:
36:11 And I will multiply upon you man and beast; and they shall increase
 and bring fruit:  and I will settle you after your old estates, and will do
 better unto you than at your beginnings:  and ye shall know that I am
 the LORD.
36:12 Yea, I will cause men to walk upon you, even my people Israel; and
 they shall possess thee, and thou shalt be their inheritance, and thou
 shalt no more henceforth bereave them of men.
36:13 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because they say unto you, Thou land
 devourest up men, and hast bereaved thy nations;
36:14 Therefore thou shalt devour men no more, neither bereave thy nations
 any more, saith the Lord GOD.
36:15 Neither will I cause men to hear in thee the shame of the heathen
 any more, neither shalt thou bear the reproach of the people any more,
 neither shalt thou cause thy nations to fall any more, saith the Lord GOD.
36:16 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
36:17 Son of man, when the house of Israel dwelt in their own land, they
 defiled it by their own way and by their doings:  their way was before me
 as the uncleanness of a removed woman.
36:18 Wherefore I poured my fury upon them for the blood that they had shed
 upon the land, and for their idols wherewith they had polluted it:
36:19 And I scattered them among the heathen, and they were dispersed
 through the countries:  according to their way and according to their
 doings I judged them.
36:20 And when they entered unto the heathen, whither they went, they
 profaned my holy name, when they said to them, These are the people of
 the LORD, and are gone forth out of his land.
36:21 But I had pity for mine holy name, which the house of Israel had
 profaned among the heathen, whither they went.
36:22 Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I do
 not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for mine holy name's
 sake, which ye have profaned among the heathen, whither ye went.
36:23 And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned among the
 heathen, which ye have profaned in the midst of them; and the heathen shall
 know that I am the LORD, saith the Lord GOD, when I shall be sanctified
 in you before their eyes.
36:24 For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all
 countries, and will bring you into your own land.
36:25 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: 
 from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.
36:26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within
 you:  and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will
 give you an heart of flesh.
36:27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my
 statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.
36:28 And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and ye
 shall be my people, and I will be your God.
36:29 I will also save you from all your uncleannesses:  and I will call for
 the corn, and will increase it, and lay no famine upon you.
36:30 And I will multiply the fruit of the tree, and the increase of the
 field, that ye shall receive no more reproach of famine among the heathen.
36:31 Then shall ye remember your own evil ways, and your doings that were
 not good, and shall loathe yourselves in your own sight for your iniquities
 and for your abominations.
36:32 Not for your sakes do I this, saith the Lord GOD, be it known unto
 you:  be ashamed and confounded for your own ways, O house of Israel.
36:33 Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day that I shall have cleansed you
 from all your iniquities I will also cause you to dwell in the cities,
 and the wastes shall be builded.
36:34 And the desolate land shall be tilled, whereas it lay desolate in the
 sight of all that passed by.
36:35 And they shall say, This land that was desolate is become like the
 garden of Eden; and the waste and desolate and ruined cities are become
 fenced, and are inhabited.
36:36 Then the heathen that are left round about you shall know that I the
 LORD build the ruined places, and plant that that was desolate:  I the
 LORD have spoken it, and I will do it.
36:37 Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will yet for this be inquired of by the
 house of Israel, to do it for them; I will increase them with men like a
 flock.
36:38 As the holy flock, as the flock of Jerusalem in her solemn feasts; so
 shall the waste cities be filled with flocks of men:  and they shall know
 that I am the LORD.

37:1 The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of
 the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of
 bones,
37:2 And caused me to pass by them round about:  and, behold, there were
 very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry.
37:3 And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live?  And I answered,
 O Lord GOD, thou knowest.
37:4 Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O
 ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD.
37:5 Thus saith the Lord GOD unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath
 to enter into you, and ye shall live:
37:6 And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and
 cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall
 know that I am the LORD.
37:7 So I prophesied as I was commanded:  and as I prophesied, there was a
 noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone.
37:8 And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and
 the skin covered them above:  but there was no breath in them.
37:9 Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and
 say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Come from the four winds, O
 breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.
37:10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and
 they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.
37:11 Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of
 Israel:  behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost:  we
 are cut off for our parts.
37:12 Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold,
 O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your
 graves, and bring you into the land of Israel.
37:13 And ye shall know that I am the LORD, when I have opened your
 graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your graves,
37:14 And shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I shall place
 you in your own land:  then shall ye know that I the LORD have spoken it,
 and performed it, saith the LORD.
37:15 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
37:16 Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For
 Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions:  then take another
 stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and for all
 the house of Israel his companions:
37:17 And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one
 in thine hand.
37:18 And when the children of thy people shall speak unto thee, saying,
 Wilt thou not show us what thou meanest by these?
37:19 Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the stick
 of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his
 fellows, and will put them with him, even with the stick of Judah, and
 make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand.
37:20 And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be in thine hand before
 their eyes.
37:21 And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the
 children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will
 gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:
37:22 And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of
 Israel; and one king shall be king to them all:  and they shall be no more
 two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at
 all:
37:23 Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor
 with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions:  but I
 will save them out of all their dwellingplaces, wherein they have sinned,
 and will cleanse them:  so shall they be my people, and I will be their
 God.
37:24 And David my servant shall be king over them; and they all shall
 have one shepherd:  they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my
 statutes, and do them.
37:25 And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob my
 servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein,
 even they, and their children, and their children's children for ever: 
 and my servant David shall be their prince for ever.
37:26 Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an
 everlasting covenant with them:  and I will place them, and multiply them,
 and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore.
37:27 My tabernacle also shall be with them:  yea, I will be their God, and
 they shall be my people.
37:28 And the heathen shall know that I the LORD do sanctify Israel, when my
 sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for evermore.

38:1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
38:2 Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief
 prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
38:3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog,
 the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
38:4 And I will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will
 bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them
 clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers
 and shields, all of them handling swords:
38:5 Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and
 helmet:
38:6 Gomer, and all his bands; the house of Togarmah of the north quarters,
 and all his bands:  and many people with thee.
38:7 Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou, and all thy company
 that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.
38:8 After many days thou shalt be visited:  in the latter years thou shalt
 come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered
 out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always
 waste:  but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell
 safely all of them.
38:9 Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to
 cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with thee.
38:10 Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that at the
 same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil
 thought:
38:11 And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I
 will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling
 without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
38:12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the
 desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are
 gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell
 in the midst of the land.
38:13 Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young
 lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil?  hast
 thou gathered thy company to take a prey?  to carry away silver and gold,
 to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?
38:14 Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog, Thus saith the Lord
 GOD; In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou not
 know it?
38:15 And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou, and
 many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and
 a mighty army:
38:16 And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to
 cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee
 against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified
 in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.
38:17 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Art thou he of whom I have spoken in old
 time by my servants the prophets of Israel, which prophesied in those days
 many years that I would bring thee against them?
38:18 And it shall come to pass at the same time when Gog shall come against
 the land of Israel, saith the Lord GOD, that my fury shall come up in my
 face.
38:19 For in my jealousy and in the fire of my wrath have I spoken, Surely
 in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel;
38:20 So that the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the heaven, and the
 beasts of the field, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, and
 all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake at my
 presence, and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places
 shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.
38:21 And I will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains,
 saith the Lord GOD:  every man's sword shall be against his brother.
38:22 And I will plead against him with pestilence and with blood; and I
 will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that are
 with him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone.
38:23 Thus will I magnify myself, and sanctify myself; and I will be known
 in the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am the LORD.

Ezekiel  |  Top  | Up  |  Down
39:1 Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith
 the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of
 Meshech and Tubal:
39:2 And I will turn thee back, and leave but the sixth part of thee, and
 will cause thee to come up from the north parts, and will bring thee upon
 the mountains of Israel:
39:3 And I will smite thy bow out of thy left hand, and will cause thine
 arrows to fall out of thy right hand.
39:4 Thou shalt fall upon the mountains of Israel, thou, and all thy bands,
 and the people that is with thee:  I will give thee unto the ravenous
 birds of every sort, and to the beasts of the field to be devoured.
39:5 Thou shalt fall upon the open field:  for I have spoken it, saith the
 Lord GOD.
39:6 And I will send a fire on Magog, and among them that dwell carelessly
 in the isles:  and they shall know that I am the LORD.
39:7 So will I make my holy name known in the midst of my people Israel; and
 I will not let them pollute my holy name any more:  and the heathen shall
 know that I am the LORD, the Holy One in Israel.
39:8 Behold, it is come, and it is done, saith the Lord GOD; this is the
 day whereof I have spoken.
39:9 And they that dwell in the cities of Israel shall go forth, and shall
 set on fire and burn the weapons, both the shields and the bucklers, the
 bows and the arrows, and the handstaves, and the spears, and they shall
 burn them with fire seven years:
39:10 So that they shall take no wood out of the field, neither cut down
 any out of the forests; for they shall burn the weapons with fire:  and
 they shall spoil those that spoiled them, and rob those that robbed them,
 saith the Lord GOD.
39:11 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will give unto Gog a
 place there of graves in Israel, the valley of the passengers on the east
 of the sea:  and it shall stop the noses of the passengers:  and there
 shall they bury Gog and all his multitude:  and they shall call it The
 valley of Hamongog.
39:12 And seven months shall the house of Israel be burying of them, that
 they may cleanse the land.
39:13 Yea, all the people of the land shall bury them; and it shall be to
 them a renown the day that I shall be glorified, saith the Lord GOD.
39:14 And they shall sever out men of continual employment, passing through
 the land to bury with the passengers those that remain upon the face of the
 earth, to cleanse it:  after the end of seven months shall they search.
39:15 And the passengers that pass through the land, when any seeth a
 man's bone, then shall he set up a sign by it, till the buriers have buried
 it in the valley of Hamongog.
39:16 And also the name of the city shall be Hamonah.  Thus shall they
 cleanse the land.
39:17 And, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD; Speak unto every
 feathered fowl, and to every beast of the field, Assemble yourselves, and
 come; gather yourselves on every side to my sacrifice that I do sacrifice
 for you, even a great sacrifice upon the mountains of Israel, that ye may
 eat flesh, and drink blood.
39:18 Ye shall eat the flesh of the mighty, and drink the blood of the
 princes of the earth, of rams, of lambs, and of goats, of bullocks, all of
 them fatlings of Bashan.
39:19 And ye shall eat fat till ye be full, and drink blood till ye be
 drunken, of my sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you.
39:20 Thus ye shall be filled at my table with horses and chariots, with
 mighty men, and with all men of war, saith the Lord GOD.
39:21 And I will set my glory among the heathen, and all the heathen shall
 see my judgment that I have executed, and my hand that I have laid upon
 them.
39:22 So the house of Israel shall know that I am the LORD their God from
 that day and forward.
39:23 And the heathen shall know that the house of Israel went into
 captivity for their iniquity:  because they trespassed against me,
 therefore hid I my face from them, and gave them into the hand of their
 enemies:  so fell they all by the sword.
39:24 According to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions
 have I done unto them, and hid my face from them.
39:25 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Now will I bring again the
 captivity of Jacob, and have mercy upon the whole house of Israel, and will
 be jealous for my holy name;
39:26 After that they have borne their shame, and all their trespasses
 whereby they have trespassed against me, when they dwelt safely in their
 land, and none made them afraid.
39:27 When I have brought them again from the people, and gathered them out
 of their enemies' lands, and am sanctified in them in the sight of many
 nations;
39:28 Then shall they know that I am the LORD their God, which caused them
 to be led into captivity among the heathen:  but I have gathered them unto
 their own land, and have left none of them any more there.
39:29 Neither will I hide my face any more from them:  for I have poured out
 my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord GOD.
