Chap. XXIIII.
Ierusalem manie wayes chasticed of God, and not amended, 11. shal at last
be melted like a brasse potte: 15. and shal not dare to mourne for the death
of her dearest.
1 And the word of our Lord was made to me, in note the
ninth yeare, in the tenth moneth, the tenth day of the
moneth, saying:
2 Sonne of man, note write thee the name of
this day, wherin the king of Babylon is confirmed against
Ierusalem to day.
3 And thou shalt speake by a prouerbe to
the exasperating house a parable, and shalt say to them: Thus
saith our Lord God: Set thou a potte, set it, I say, and put water
-- --
into it.
4 Heape together the peeces therof into it, euerie
good part, the thigh and the shoulder, the chosen thinges and
ful of bones.
5 Take the fattest beast, and lay together pyles
of bones also vnder it: the seething therof is boyling hotte,
and the bones therof are throughly sodden in the middes
therof.
6 Therfore thus saith our Lord God: Wo to the citie
of bloud, to the potte, whose rustines is in it, and the rustines
therof is not gone out of it: by her partes, and by her partes
cast her out, there hath no lotte fallen vpon her.
7 For her
bloud is in the middes of her, she hath shed it vpon the most
cleare rocke: she shed it not vpon the ground, that it might
be couered with dust.
8 That I might bring mine indignation
in vpon her, and might reuenge with vengeance: I gaue her
bloud vpon the most clere rocke, that it might not be couered.
9 Therfore thus saith our Lord God: Wo to the citie of
bloud, whose bonefire I wil make great.
10 Heape together
the bones, which I wil burne with fire: the flesh shal be consumed,
and al the composition shal be sod, and the bones shal
drie away.
11 Set it also vpon hote burning coles emptie, that
the brasse therof may waxe hote, and be melted: and let the
filth of it be melted in the middes therof, & let the rust therof
be consumed.
12 There hath bene sweating with much labour,
and the exceding rust therof is not gone out, note no not by fire.
13 Thine vncleannes is execrable: because I would clense thee,
and thou art not clensed from thy filthines: yea neither shalt
thou be clensed, before I make myne indignation to cease in
thee.
14 I the Lord haue spoken: It shal come, and I wil doe
it: I wil not passe, nor spare, nor be pacified: according to thy
wayes, and according to thine inuentions wil I iudge thee,
saith our Lord.
15 And the word of our Lord was made to
me, saying:
16 Sonne of man, behold I take from thee the
thing that thine eyes desire in a plague: and thou shalt not lament,
nor weepe: neither shal thy teares runne.
17 Sigh holding
thy peace, thou shalt not make the mourning of the
dead: let thy crowne be tyed round about thee, and thy shoes
shal be on thy feete, neither shalt thou couer thy face with a
cloth, neither shalt thou eate the meates of mourners.
18 I
spake therfore to the people in the morning, and note my wife
died at euen: and I did in the morning as he had commanded
me.
19 And the people sayd to me: Why doest thou not tel vs
what these thinges signifie, that thou doest?
20 And I sayd to
-- --
them: The word of our Lord was made to me, saying:
21 Speake
to the house of Israel: Thus sayth our Lord God: Behold I wil pollute my sanctuarie, the pride of your empire, and the thing
that your eyes desire, and vpon which your soule quaketh for
feare: your sonnes, and your daughters, which you haue
left, shal fal by the sword.
22 And you shal doe as I haue done:
your faces with a clothe you shal not couer, and the meates of
mourners you shal not eate.
23 You shal haue crownes on your
heades, & shoes on your feete: you shal not lament nor weepe,
but you shal pine away in your iniquities, and euerie one shal
groane toward his brother.
24 And Ezechiel shal be vnto you
for a portending signe: according to al thinges, that he hath
done, shal you doe when this shal come: and you shal know
that I am the Lord God.
25 And thou sonne of man, behold in
the day, wherin I wil take away from them their strength, and
the ioy of dignitie, and the desire of their eyes, whervpon
their soules rest, their sonnes and daughters.
26 In that day
when one fleing shal come to thee, to tel thee:
27 in that day, I
say, shal thy mouth be opened with him that fleeth, and thou
shalt speake, and shalt be silent no more: and thou shalt be
vnto them for a portending signe, and you shal know that I
am the Lord.
