Ezekiel 4:1--5:17

4:1

Thou also, son
<01121>

of man
<0120>_,

take
<03947> (8798)

thee a tile
<03843>_,

and lay
<05414> (8804)

it before
<06440>

thee, and pourtray
<02710> (8804)

upon it the city
<05892>_,

[even] Jerusalem
<03389>_:

4:2

And lay
<05414> (8804)

siege
<04692>

against it, and build
<01129> (8804)

a fort
<01785>

against it, and cast
<08210> (8804)

a mount
<05550>

against it; set
<05414> (8804)

the camp
<04264>

also against it, and set
<07760> (8798)

[battering] rams
<03733>

against it round about
<05439>_.

{battering...: chief leaders}

4:3

Moreover take
<03947> (8798)

thou unto thee an iron
<01270>

pan
<04227>_,

and set
<05414> (8804)

it [for] a wall
<07023>

of iron
<01270>

between thee and the city
<05892>_:

and set
<03559> (8689)

thy face
<06440>

against it, and it shall be besieged
<04692>_,

and thou shalt lay siege
<06696> (8804)

against it. This [shall be] a sign
<0226>

to the house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>_.

{an...: or, a flat plate, or, slice}

4:4

Lie
<07901> (8798)

thou also upon thy left
<08042>

side
<06654>_,

and lay
<07760> (8804)

the iniquity
<05771>

of the house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>

upon it: [according] to the number
<04557>

of the days
<03117>

that thou shalt lie
<07901> (8799)

upon it thou shalt bear
<05375> (8799)

their iniquity
<05771>_.

4:5

For I have laid
<05414> (8804)

upon thee the years
<08141>

of their iniquity
<05771>_,

according to the number
<04557>

of the days
<03117>_,

three
<07969>

hundred
<03967>

and ninety
<08673>

days
<03117>_:

so shalt thou bear
<05375> (8804)

the iniquity
<05771>

of the house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>_.

4:6

And when thou hast accomplished
<03615> (8765)

them
<0428>_,

lie
<07901> (8804)

again
<08145>

on thy right
<03233> (8675) <03227>

side
<06654>_,

and thou shalt bear
<05375> (8804)

the iniquity
<05771>

of the house
<01004>

of Judah
<03063>

forty
<0705>

days
<03117>_:

I have appointed
<05414> (8804)

thee each day
<03117> <03117>

for a year
<08141> <08141>_.

{each...: Heb. a day for a year, a day for a year}

4:7

Therefore thou shalt set
<03559> (8686)

thy face
<06440>

toward the siege
<04692>

of Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and thine arm
<02220>

[shall be] uncovered
<02834> (8803)_,

and thou shalt prophesy
<05012> (8738)

against it.

4:8

And, behold, I will lay
<05414> (8804)

bands
<05688>

upon thee, and thou shalt not turn
<02015> (8735)

thee from one side
<06654>

to another
<06654>_,

till thou hast ended
<03615> (8763)

the days
<03117>

of thy siege
<04692>_.

{from one...: Heb. from thy side to thy side}

4:9

Take
<03947> (8798)

thou also unto thee wheat
<02406>_,

and barley
<08184>_,

and beans
<06321>_,

and lentiles
<05742>_,

and millet
<01764>_,

and fitches
<03698>_,

and put
<05414> (8804)

them in one
<0259>

vessel
<03627>_,

and make
<06213> (8804)

thee bread
<03899>

thereof, [according] to the number
<04557>

of the days
<03117>

that thou shalt lie
<07901> (8802)

upon thy side
<06654>_,

three
<07969>

hundred
<03967>

and ninety
<08673>

days
<03117>

shalt thou eat
<0398> (8799)

thereof. {fitches: or, spelt}

4:10

And thy meat
<03978>

which thou shalt eat
<0398> (8799)

[shall be] by weight
<04946>_,

twenty
<06242>

shekels
<08255>

a day
<03117>_:

from time
<06256>

to time
<06256>

shalt thou eat
<0398> (8799)

it.

4:11

Thou shalt drink
<08354> (8799)

also water
<04325>

by measure
<04884>_,

the sixth part
<08345>

of an hin
<01969>_:

from time
<06256>

to time
<06256>

shalt thou drink
<08354> (8799)_.

4:12

And thou shalt eat
<0398> (8799)

it [as] barley
<08184>

cakes
<05692>_,

and thou shalt bake
<05746> (8799)

it with dung
<01561>

that cometh out
<06627>

of man
<0120>_,

in their sight
<05869>_.

4:13

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Even thus shall the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

eat
<0398> (8799)

their defiled
<02931>

bread
<03899>

among the Gentiles
<01471>_,

whither I will drive
<05080> (8686)

them.

4:14

Then said
<0559> (8799)

I, Ah
<0162>

Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_!

behold, my soul
<05315>

hath not been polluted
<02930> (8794)_:

for from my youth
<05271>

up even till now have I not eaten
<0398> (8804)

of that which dieth of itself
<05038>_,

or is torn in pieces
<02966>_;

neither came
<0935> (8804)

there abominable
<06292>

flesh
<01320>

into my mouth
<06310>_.

4:15

Then he said
<0559> (8799)

unto me, Lo
<07200> (8798)_,

I have given
<05414> (8804)

thee cow's
<01241>

dung
<06832> (8675) <06832>

for man's
<0120>

dung
<01561>_,

and thou shalt prepare
<06213> (8804)

thy bread
<03899>

therewith.

4:16

Moreover he said
<0559> (8799)

unto me, Son
<01121>

of man
<0120>_,

behold, I will break
<07665> (8799)

the staff
<04294>

of bread
<03899>

in Jerusalem
<03389>_:

and they shall eat
<0398> (8804)

bread
<03899>

by weight
<04948>_,

and with care
<01674>_;

and they shall drink
<08354> (8799)

water
<04325>

by measure
<04884>_,

and with astonishment
<08078>_:

4:17

That they may want
<02637> (8799)

bread
<03899>

and water
<04325>_,

and be astonied
<08074> (8738)

one
<0376>

with another
<0251>_,

and consume away
<04743> (8738)

for their iniquity
<05771>_.

5:1

And thou, son
<01121>

of man
<0120>_,

take
<03947> (8798)

thee a sharp
<02299>

knife
<02719>_,

take
<03947> (8799)

thee a barber's
<01532>

razor
<08593>_,

and cause [it] to pass
<05674> (8689)

upon thine head
<07218>

and upon thy beard
<02206>_:

then take
<03947> (8804)

thee balances
<03976>

to weigh
<04948>_,

and divide
<02505> (8765)

the [hair].

5:2

Thou shalt burn
<01197> (8686)

with fire
<0217>

a third part
<07992>

in the midst
<08432>

of the city
<05892>_,

when the days
<03117>

of the siege
<04692>

are fulfilled
<04390> (8800)_:

and thou shalt take
<03947> (8804)

a third part
<07992>_,

[and] smite
<05221> (8686)

about
<05439>

it with a knife
<02719>_:

and a third part
<07992>

thou shalt scatter
<02219> (8799)

in the wind
<07307>_;

and I will draw out
<07324> (8686)

a sword
<02719>

after
<0310>

them.

5:3

Thou shalt also take
<03947> (8804)

thereof a few
<04592>

in number
<04557>_,

and bind
<06696> (8804)

them in thy skirts
<03671>_.

{skirts: Heb. wings}

5:4

Then take of them again
<03947> (8799)_,

and cast
<07993> (8689)

them into the midst
<08432>

of the fire
<0784>_,

and burn
<08313> (8804)

them in the fire
<0784>_;

[for] thereof shall a fire
<0784>

come forth
<03318> (8799)

into all the house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>_.

5:5

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_;

This [is] Jerusalem
<03389>_:

I have set
<07760> (8804)

it in the midst
<08432>

of the nations
<01471>

and countries
<0776>

[that are] round about
<05439>

her.

5:6

And she hath changed
<04784> (8686)

my judgments
<04941>

into wickedness
<07564>

more than the nations
<01471>_,

and my statutes
<02708>

more than the countries
<0776>

that [are] round about
<05439>

her: for they have refused
<03988> (8804)

my judgments
<04941>

and my statutes
<02708>_,

they have not walked
<01980> (8804)

in them.

5:7

Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_;

Because ye multiplied
<01995> (8800)

more than the nations
<01471>

that [are] round about
<05439>

you, [and] have not walked
<01980> (8804)

in my statutes
<02708>_,

neither have kept
<06213> (8804)

my judgments
<04941>_,

neither have done
<06213> (8804)

according to the judgments
<04941>

of the nations
<01471>

that [are] round about
<05439>

you;

5:8

Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_;

Behold, I, even I, [am] against thee, and will execute
<06213> (8804)

judgments
<04941>

in the midst
<08432>

of thee in the sight
<05869>

of the nations
<01471>_.

5:9

And I will do
<06213> (8804)

in thee that which I have not done
<06213> (8804)_,

and whereunto I will not do
<06213> (8799)

any more the like, because
<03282>

of all thine abominations
<08441>_.

5:10

Therefore the fathers
<01>

shall eat
<0398> (8799)

the sons
<01121>

in the midst
<08432>

of thee, and the sons
<01121>

shall eat
<0398> (8799)

their fathers
<01>_;

and I will execute
<06213> (8804)

judgments
<08201>

in thee, and the whole remnant
<07611>

of thee will I scatter
<02219> (8765)

into all the winds
<07307>_.

5:11

Wherefore, [as] I live
<02416>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_;

Surely, because thou hast defiled
<02930> (8765)

my sanctuary
<04720>

with all thy detestable things
<08251>_,

and with all thine abominations
<08441>_,

therefore will I also diminish
<01639> (8799)

[thee]; neither shall mine eye
<05869>

spare
<02347> (8799)_,

neither will I have any pity
<02550> (8799)_.

5:12

A third part
<07992>

of thee shall die
<04191> (8799)

with the pestilence
<01698>_,

and with famine
<07458>

shall they be consumed
<03615> (8799)

in the midst
<08432>

of thee: and a third part
<07992>

shall fall
<05307> (8799)

by the sword
<02719>

round about
<05439>

thee; and I will scatter
<02219> (8762)

a third part
<07992>

into all the winds
<07307>_,

and I will draw out
<07324> (8686)

a sword
<02719>

after
<0310>

them.

5:13

Thus shall mine anger
<0639>

be accomplished
<03615> (8804)_,

and I will cause my fury
<02534>

to rest
<05117> (8689)

upon them, and I will be comforted
<05162> (8694)_:

and they shall know
<03045> (8804)

that I the LORD
<03068>

have spoken
<01696> (8765)

[it] in my zeal
<07068>_,

when I have accomplished
<03615> (8763)

my fury
<02534>

in them.

5:14

Moreover I will make
<05414> (8799)

thee waste
<02723>_,

and a reproach
<02781>

among the nations
<01471>

that [are] round about
<05439>

thee, in the sight
<05869>

of all that pass by
<05674> (8802)_.

5:15

So it shall be a reproach
<02781>

and a taunt
<01422>_,

an instruction
<04148>

and an astonishment
<04923>

unto the nations
<01471>

that [are] round about
<05439>

thee, when I shall execute
<06213> (8800)

judgments
<08201>

in thee in anger
<0639>

and in fury
<02534>

and in furious
<02534>

rebukes
<08433>_.

I the LORD
<03068>

have spoken
<01696> (8765)

[it].

5:16

When I shall send
<07971> (8762)

upon them the evil
<07451>

arrows
<02671>

of famine
<07458>_,

which shall be for [their] destruction
<04889>_,

[and] which I will send
<07971> (8763)

to destroy
<07843> (8763)

you: and I will increase
<03254> (8686)

the famine
<07458>

upon you, and will break
<07665> (8804)

your staff
<04294>

of bread
<03899>_:

5:17

So will I send
<07971> (8765)

upon you famine
<07458>

and evil
<07451>

beasts
<02416>_,

and they shall bereave
<07921> (8765)

thee; and pestilence
<01698>

and blood
<01818>

shall pass through
<05674> (8799)

thee; and I will bring
<0935> (8686)

the sword
<02719>

upon thee. I the LORD
<03068>

have spoken
<01696> (8765)

[it].
