Ezekiel Chapter 9

1 He cried also in mine ears with a loud voice, saying, Cause them that 
have charge over the city to draw near, even every man with his 
destroying weapon in his hand.

2 And, behold, six men came from the way of the higher gate, which lieth 
toward the north, and every man a slaughter weapon in his hand; and one 
man among them was clothed with linen, with a writer's inkhorn by his 
side: and they went in, and stood beside the brasen altar.

3 And the glory of the God of Israel was gone up from the cherub, 
whereupon he was, to the threshold of the house. And he called to the 
man clothed with linen, which had the writer's inkhorn by his side;

4 And the LORD said unto him, Go through the midst of the city, through 
the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men 
that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the 
midst thereof.

5 And to the others he said in mine hearing, Go ye after him through the 
city, and smite: let not your eye spare, neither have ye pity:

6 Slay utterly old and young, both maids, and little children, and 
women: but come not near any man upon whom is the mark; and begin at my 
sanctuary. Then they began at the ancient men which were before the house.

7 And he said unto them, Defile the house, and fill the courts with the 
slain: go ye forth. And they went forth, and slew in the city.

8 And it came to pass, while they were slaying them, and I was left, 
that I fell upon my face, and cried, and said, Ah Lord GOD! wilt thou 
destroy all the residue of Israel in thy pouring out of thy fury upon 
Jerusalem?

9 Then said he unto me, The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is 
exceeding great, and the land is full of blood, and the city full of 
perverseness: for they say, The LORD hath forsaken the earth, and the 
LORD seeth not.

10 And as for me also, mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have 
pity, but I will recompense their way upon their head.

11 And, behold, the man clothed with linen, which had the inkhorn by his 
side, reported the matter, saying, I have done as thou hast commanded me.

Ezekiel Chapter 10

1 Then I looked, and, behold, in the firmament that was above the head 
of the cherubims there appeared over them as it were a sapphire stone, 
as the appearance of the likeness of a throne.

2 And he spake unto the man clothed with linen, and said, Go in between 
the wheels, even under the cherub, and fill thine hand with coals of 
fire from between the cherubims, and scatter them over the city. And he 
went in in my sight.

3 Now the cherubims stood on the right side of the house, when the man 
went in; and the cloud filled the inner court.

4 Then the glory of the LORD went up from the cherub, and stood over the 
threshold of the house; and the house was filled with the cloud, and the 
court was full of the brightness of the LORD'S glory.

5 And the sound of the cherubims' wings was heard even to the outer 
court, as the voice of the Almighty God when he speaketh.

6 And it came to pass, that when he had commanded the man clothed with 
linen, saying, Take fire from between the wheels, from between the 
cherubims; then he went in, and stood beside the wheels.

7 And one cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubims 
unto the fire that was between the cherubims, and took thereof, and put 
it into the hands of him that was clothed with linen: who took it, and 
went out.

8 And there appeared in the cherubims the form of a man's hand under 
their wings.

9 And when I looked, behold the four wheels by the cherubims, one wheel 
by one cherub, and another wheel by another cherub: and the appearance 
of the wheels was as the colour of a beryl stone.

10 And as for their appearances, they four had one likeness, as if a 
wheel had been in the midst of a wheel.

11 When they went, they went upon their four sides; they turned not as 
they went, but to the place whither the head looked they followed it; 
they turned not as they went.

12 And their whole body, and their backs, and their hands, and their 
wings, and the wheels, were full of eyes round about, even the wheels 
that they four had.

13 As for the wheels, it was cried unto them in my hearing, O wheel.

14 And every one had four faces: the first face was the face of a 
cherub, and the second face was the face of a man, and the third the 
face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.

15 And the cherubims were lifted up. This is the living creature that I 
saw by the river of Chebar.

16 And when the cherubims went, the wheels went by them: and when the 
cherubims lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the same 
wheels also turned not from beside them.

17 When they stood, these stood; and when they were lifted up, these 
lifted up themselves also: for the spirit of the living creature was in 
them.

18 Then the glory of the LORD departed from off the threshold of the 
house, and stood over the cherubims.

19 And the cherubims lifted up their wings, and mounted up from the 
earth in my sight: when they went out, the wheels also were beside them, 
and every one stood at the door of the east gate of the LORD'S house; 
and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.

20 This is the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the 
river of Chebar; and I knew that they were the cherubims.

21 Every one had four faces apiece, and every one four wings; and the 
likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings.

22 And the likeness of their faces was the same faces which I saw by the 
river of Chebar, their appearances and themselves: they went every one 
straight forward.

Ezekiel Chapter 11

1 Moreover the spirit lifted me up, and brought me unto the east gate of 
the LORD'S house, which looketh eastward: and behold at the door of the 
gate five and twenty men; among whom I saw Jaazaniah the son of Azur, 
and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, princes of the people.

2 Then said he unto me, Son of man, these are the men that devise 
mischief, and give wicked counsel in this city:

3 Which say, It is not near; let us build houses: this city is the 
caldron, and we be the flesh.

4 Therefore prophesy against them, prophesy, O son of man.

5 And the Spirit of the LORD fell upon me, and said unto me, Speak; Thus 
saith the LORD; Thus have ye said, O house of Israel: for I know the 
things that come into your mind, every one of them.

6 Ye have multiplied your slain in this city, and ye have filled the 
streets thereof with the slain.

7 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Your slain whom ye have laid in the 
midst of it, they are the flesh, and this city is the caldron: but I 
will bring you forth out of the midst of it.

8 Ye have feared the sword; and I will bring a sword upon you, saith the 
Lord GOD.

9 And I will bring you out of the midst thereof, and deliver you into 
the hands of strangers, and will execute judgments among you.

10 Ye shall fall by the sword; I will judge you in the border of Israel; 
and ye shall know that I am the LORD.

11 This city shall not be your caldron, neither shall ye be the flesh in 
the midst thereof; but I will judge you in the border of Israel:

12 And ye shall know that I am the LORD: for ye have not walked in my 
statutes, neither executed my judgments, but have done after the manners 
of the heathen that are round about you.

13 And it came to pass, when I prophesied, that Pelatiah the son of 
Benaiah died. Then fell I down upon my face, and cried with a loud 
voice, and said, Ah Lord GOD! wilt thou make a full end of the remnant 
of Israel?

14 Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

15 Son of man, thy brethren, even thy brethren, the men of thy kindred, 
and all the house of Israel wholly, are they unto whom the inhabitants 
of Jerusalem have said, Get you far from the LORD: unto us is this land 
given in possession.

16 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Although I have cast them far 
off among the heathen, and although I have scattered them among the 
countries, yet will I be to them as a little sanctuary in the countries 
where they shall come.

17 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even gather you from 
the people, and assemble you out of the countries where ye have been 
scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.

18 And they shall come thither, and they shall take away all the 
detestable things thereof and all the abominations thereof from thence.

19 And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within 
you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give 
them an heart of flesh:

20 That they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do 
them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.

21 But as for them whose heart walketh after the heart of their 
detestable things and their abominations, I will recompense their way 
upon their own heads, saith the Lord GOD.

22 Then did the cherubims lift up their wings, and the wheels beside 
them; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.

23 And the glory of the LORD went up from the midst of the city, and 
stood upon the mountain which is on the east side of the city.

24 Afterwards the spirit took me up, and brought me in a vision by the 
Spirit of God into Chaldea, to them of the captivity. So the vision that 
I had seen went up from me.

25 Then I spake unto them of the captivity all the things that the LORD 
had shewed me.

Ezekiel Chapter 12

1 The word of the LORD also came unto me, saying,

2 Son of man, thou dwellest in the midst of a rebellious house, which 
have eyes to see, and see not; they have ears to hear, and hear not: for 
they are a rebellious house.

3 Therefore, thou son of man, prepare thee stuff for removing, and 
remove by day in their sight; and thou shalt remove from thy place to 
another place in their sight: it may be they will consider, though they 
be a rebellious house.

4 Then shalt thou bring forth thy stuff by day in their sight, as stuff 
for removing: and thou shalt go forth at even in their sight, as they 
that go forth into captivity.

5 Dig thou through the wall in their sight, and carry out thereby.

6 In their sight shalt thou bear it upon thy shoulders, and carry it 
forth in the twilight: thou shalt cover thy face, that thou see not the 
ground: for I have set thee for a sign unto the house of Israel.

7 And I did so as I was commanded: I brought forth my stuff by day, as 
stuff for captivity, and in the even I digged through the wall with mine 
hand; I brought it forth in the twilight, and I bare it upon my shoulder 
in their sight.

8 And in the morning came the word of the LORD unto me, saying,

9 Son of man, hath not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said 
unto thee, What doest thou?

10 Say thou unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; This burden concerneth 
the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel that are among them.

11 Say, I am your sign: like as I have done, so shall it be done unto 
them: they shall remove and go into captivity.

12 And the prince that is among them shall bear upon his shoulder in the 
twilight, and shall go forth: they shall dig through the wall to carry 
out thereby: he shall cover his face, that he see not the ground with 
his eyes.

13 My net also will I spread upon him, and he shall be taken in my 
snare: and I will bring him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldeans; yet 
shall he not see it, though he shall die there.

14 And I will scatter toward every wind all that are about him to help 
him, and all his bands; and I will draw out the sword after them.

15 And they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall scatter them 
among the nations, and disperse them in the countries.

16 But I will leave a few men of them from the sword, from the famine, 
and from the pestilence; that they may declare all their abominations 
among the heathen whither they come; and they shall know that I am the LORD.

17 Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

18 Son of man, eat thy bread with quaking, and drink thy water with 
trembling and with carefulness;

19 And say unto the people of the land, Thus saith the Lord GOD of the 
inhabitants of Jerusalem, and of the land of Israel; They shall eat 
their bread with carefulness, and drink their water with astonishment, 
that her land may be desolate from all that is therein, because of the 
violence of all them that dwell therein.

20 And the cities that are inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land 
shall be desolate; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.

21 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

22 Son of man, what is that proverb that ye have in the land of Israel, 
saying, The days are prolonged, and every vision faileth?

23 Tell them therefore, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will make this 
proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel; 
but say unto them, The days are at hand, and the effect of every vision.

24 For there shall be no more any vain vision nor flattering divination 
within the house of Israel.

25 For I am the LORD: I will speak, and the word that I shall speak 
shall come to pass; it shall be no more prolonged: for in your days, O 
rebellious house, will I say the word, and will perform it, saith the 
Lord GOD.

26 Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

27 Son of man, behold, they of the house of Israel say, The vision that 
he seeth is for many days to come, and he prophesieth of the times that 
are far off.

28 Therefore say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; There shall none of 
my words be prolonged any more, but the word which I have spoken shall 
be done, saith the Lord GOD.
