CHAP. XII.
1 The type of Ezekiel's removing. 8 Is shown
the captivity of Zedekiah. 17 Ezekiel's
trembling showeth the Jews' desolation. 21
The Jews' presumptuous proverb is reproved.
26 The speediness of the vision.
1 The word of the Lord also came to
me, saying,
2 Son of man, thou dwellest in the
midst of a rebellious house, who 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 note 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 are 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 evening
in their sight, note as they that go forth into
captivity.
5 noteDig 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 mayest not see the ground: for I
have set thee for a sign to 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 evening I note digged
through the wall with my hand; I
brought it forth in the twilight, and I
bore it upon my shoulder in their sight.
8 ¶2; And in the morning came the word
of the Lord to me, saying,
9 Son of man, hath not the house of
Israel, the rebellious house, said to thee,
What doest thou?
10 Say thou to 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: as I have
done, so shall it be done to them: note 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 may not
see the ground with his eyes.
13 My note 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 towards 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 note 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 ¶2; 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 solicitude.
19 And say to 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 solicitude,
and drink their water with astonishment,
that her land may be desolate
from note 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 ¶2; And the word of the Lord came
to 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 to them, The
days are at hand, and the effect of every
vision.
24 For there shall no more be 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 no more be prolonged:
for in your days, O rebellious
house, will I say the word, and will perform
it, saith the Lord God.
26 ¶2; 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 note for many days to come, and he
prophesieth of the times that are distant.
28 Therefore say to them, Thus saith
the Lord God; There shall none of my
words be further deferred, but the word
which I have spoken shall be done, saith
the Lord God.
