Then a wind lifted me up and I heard a great rumbling sound behind me as the glory of the Lord rose from its place,

When the cherubim stood still, the wheels stood still, and when they rose up, the wheels rose up with them, for the spirit of the living beings was in the wheels.

All his retinue – his attendants and his troops – I will scatter to every wind; I will unleash a sword behind them.

Your rowers have brought you into surging waters. The east wind has wrecked you in the heart of the seas.

This is what the sovereign Lord says to these bones: Look, I am about to infuse breath into you and you will live.

He measured the east side with the measuring stick as 875 feet by the measuring stick.

He measured the north side as 875 feet by the measuring stick.

He measured the south side as 875 feet by the measuring stick.

He turned to the west side and measured 875 feet by the measuring stick.

Then a wind lifted me up and brought me to the inner court; I watched the glory of the Lord filling the temple.

Wherever the spirit would go, they would go, and the wheels would rise up beside them because the spirit of the living being was in the wheel.

When the living beings moved, the wheels moved, and when they stopped moving, the wheels stopped. When they rose up from the ground, the wheels rose up from the ground; the wheels rose up beside them because the spirit of the living being was in the wheel.

As he spoke to me, a wind came into me and stood me on my feet, and I heard the one speaking to me.

Then a wind came into me and stood me on my feet. The Lord spoke to me and said, “Go shut yourself in your house.

Therefore fathers will eat their sons within you, Jerusalem, and sons will eat their fathers. I will execute judgments on you, and I will scatter any survivors to the winds.

A third of your people will die of plague or be overcome by the famine within you. A third of your people will fall by the sword surrounding you, and a third I will scatter to the winds. I will unleash a sword behind them.

Then the Spirit of the Lord came upon me and said to me, “Say: This is what the Lord says: ‘This is what you are thinking, O house of Israel; I know what goes through your minds.

“‘Therefore this is what the sovereign Lord says: In my rage I will make a violent wind break out. In my anger there will be a deluge of rain and hailstones in destructive fury.

Consider! It is planted, but will it prosper? Will it not wither completely when the east wind blows on it? Will it not wither in the soil where it sprouted?’”

All the choice men among his troops will die by the sword and the survivors will be scattered to every wind. Then you will know that I, the Lord, have spoken!
