Young's Literal Translation
Moreover
the
word of the
LORD
came
unto me, saying,
And
there
is
a
word of Jehovah
unto me, saying,
Now,
thou son of man, wilt
thou judge ,
wilt
thou judge the bloody
city? yea,
thou shalt
shew
her
all her
abominations .
`And
thou ,
son of man, dost
thou judge ?
dost
thou judge the city of
blood
? then
thou hast
caused
it
to
know
all its
abominations ,
Then
say
thou ,
Thus saith
the Lord GOD,
The city sheddeth
blood in the
midst of
it
, that
her
time may
come
, and maketh
idols against
herself
to
defile
herself
.
and
thou hast
said:
Thus said
the Lord Jehovah:
The city is
shedding
blood in its
midst, For
the
coming
in
of
its
time, And it
hath
made
idols on
it
for
defilement
.
Thou
art
become
guilty
in
thy blood that thou hast shed ;
and
hast defiled
thyself
in
thine idols which
thou hast made ;
and
thou hast caused
thy days to draw near, and art come even
unto thy
years :
therefore have
I made
thee a reproach unto
the
heathen
, and a mocking
to all countries
.
By
thy blood that thou hast shed thou
hast been
guilty,
And
by
thine idols that
thou hast made thou hast been
defiled,
And
thou
causest
thy days to draw near, And art come in
unto thine
years ,
Therefore I have
given
thee a reproach to
nations
, And a derision
to all the
lands
.
Those
that
be
near ,
and those
that
be
far from thee ,
shall
mock
thee, which
art
infamous
and
much
vexed
.
The
near and the
far -off
from thee scoff
at
thee, O
defiled
of
name
--
abounding
in
trouble
.
Behold
, the
princes of Israel ,
every
one
were
in thee to their
power
to
shed blood.
Lo
, princes of Israel --
each
according
to
his
arm
Have
been
in thee to shed blood.
In
thee
have
they
set
light
by
father and mother :
in
the
midst
of thee have
they dealt by
oppression
with
the
stranger:
in thee
have
they
vexed
the
fatherless and the
widow.
Father and mother made
light
of in
thee ,
To
a
sojourner
they dealt oppressively
in thy
midst,
Fatherless and widow they
oppressed
in
thee
.
Thou hast despised mine
holy
things
, and hast
profaned
my sabbaths.
My
holy
things
thou hast despised, And My sabbaths thou
hast
polluted
.
In thee are
men
that
carry
tales
to shed blood :
and in
thee
they
eat
upon
the mountains :
in the
midst
of
thee they commit
lewdness
.
Men
of
slander
have
been
in thee to shed blood ,
And on
the mountains they
have
eaten
in thee ,
Wickedness
they have
done
in
thy
midst
.
In
thee
have
they
discovered
their
fathers'
nakedness :
in thee have
they humbled her
that
was
set
apart
for
pollution
.
The
nakedness of
a
father
hath
one
uncovered
in thee ,
The
defiled
of
impurity
they humbled in
thee
.
And one
hath
committed
abomination
with his
neighbour's
wife ;
and
another
hath lewdly
defiled
his daughter in law ;
and
another
in
thee
hath humbled
his sister, his father's daughter.
And each
with the
wife of
his
neighbour
hath done
abomination,
And
each
his daughter -
in -
law hath defiled
through
wickedness,
And
each
his sister, his father's daughter ,
hath
humbled
in
thee
.
In
thee
have
they taken gifts
to shed blood ;
thou
hast
taken
usury and increase ,
and
thou hast greedily
gained
of
thy neighbours
by extortion
, and hast forgotten me
, saith
the Lord GOD.
A
bribe
they have
taken in
thee
to shed blood ,
Usury and increase thou hast taken,
And
cuttest
off
thy neighbour
by oppression
, And Me
thou
hast forgotten, An
affirmation
of
the Lord Jehovah!
Behold
, therefore
I have smitten mine
hand at
thy dishonest gain which
thou hast made
, and at
thy blood which
hath been in the
midst of
thee
.
And
lo
, I have smitten My
hand ,
Because
of
thy dishonest gain that
thou hast gained
, And for
thy blood that
hath been in thy
midst.
Can
thine
heart endure,
or
can
thine
hands be
strong, in
the days that I shall
deal
with thee? I the
LORD
have spoken it,
and will
do
it.
Doth
thy
heart stand
--
are
thy
hands strong, For
the days that I am
dealing
with thee? I ,
Jehovah,
have spoken and have
done
`
it '
.
And I will
scatter
thee among the
heathen
, and disperse
thee in
the
countries
, and will
consume
thy filthiness
out of thee.
And I have
scattered
thee among nations
, And have
spread
thee out
among
lands
, And consumed
thy uncleanness
out of thee.
And thou shalt
take
thine
inheritance
in thyself in
the sight
of the
heathen
, and thou shalt
know
that I am the
LORD
.
And thou hast
been
polluted
in thyself Before
the eyes
of nations
, And thou hast
known
that I `
am '
Jehovah
. '
And the
word of the
LORD
came
unto me, saying,
And there
is
a
word of Jehovah
unto me, saying, `Son
of
man,
Son
of
man,
the house of Israel is
to me become
dross :
all they
are brass, and tin, and iron, and lead, in the midst of the
furnace ;
they
are
even
the
dross of
silver .
The house of Israel hath
been
to Me for
dross ,
All of
them
`
are '
brass, and tin, and iron, and lead, In the midst of a
furnace --
dross hath
silver been,
Therefore thus saith
the Lord GOD;
Because ye
are
all become
dross, behold,
therefore I will
gather
you into
the midst of Jerusalem .
Therefore ,
thus said
the Lord Jehovah:
Because of
your
all becoming
dross, Therefore ,
lo,
I am
gathering
you unto
the midst of Jerusalem ,
As
they
gather
silver, and brass, and iron, and lead, and tin, into
the midst of the
furnace ,
to blow the
fire
upon
it, to melt it ;
so will
I gather you
in mine anger and in my fury, and I will
leave
you
there
, and melt
you.
A
gathering
of
silver, and brass, and iron, and lead, and tin, Unto
the midst of a
furnace --
to blow on
it fire
, to melt it ,
So do
I gather in Mine anger and in My fury, And I have
let
rest
, and have
melted
you.
Yea,
I will
gather
you, and blow
upon
you in the fire of my wrath, and ye shall
be
melted in the
midst therof
.
And
I have
heaped
you up
, And blown
on
you in the fire of My wrath, And ye have
been
melted in its
midst.
As silver is
melted
in the midst of the
furnace, so shall
ye be
melted in the
midst thereof;
and ye shall
know
that I the
LORD
have poured out my fury upon you.
As the
melting
of
silver in the midst of a
furnace, So are
ye melted in its
midst ,
And ye have
known
that I ,
Jehovah,
I
have poured out My fury upon you. '
And the
word of the
LORD
came
unto me, saying ,
And there
is
a
word of Jehovah
unto me, saying :
Son of man, say unto
her
, Thou art the
land that
is not cleansed ,
nor rained upon
in the
day of indignation.
`
Son of man, say to
it
, Thou `
art '
a
land ,
It
`
is '
not cleansed nor rained on
in a
day of indignation.
There
is
a conspiracy of her
prophets in the
midst thereof
, like
a roaring lion ravening
the
prey; they have devoured souls;
they
have
taken
the
treasure
and precious
things;
they have made
her
many
widows in the
midst thereof
.
A conspiracy of its
prophets `is'
in its
midst, as
a roaring lion tearing
prey; The
soul
they have devoured ,
Wealth
and glory
they have taken,
Its
widows have
multiplied
in its
midst.
Her
priests have violated
my law, and have
profaned
mine
holy things :
they
have
put
no
difference
between the
holy and profane,
neither
have
they shewed
difference
between the unclean and the clean, and have
hid
their
eyes
from my sabbaths, and I am profaned
among
them
.
Its
priests have wronged
My law, And they
pollute
My
holy things ,
Between holy and common
they have
not
made
separation,
And
between the unclean and the clean they
have
not
made
known
, And from my sabbaths they
have
hidden
their
eyes
, And I am pierced
in
their
midst
.
Her
princes in the
midst thereof
are like
wolves ravening
the
prey, to shed blood, and
to destroy souls, to
get
dishonest gain.
Its
princes in its
midst `
are '
as
wolves ,
Tearing
prey, to shed blood, to destroy souls, For
the
sake
of
gaining
dishonest gain.
And her
prophets have daubed them with untempered
morter
, seeing vanity
, and divining lies
unto
them, saying, Thus saith
the
Lord
GOD,
when
the LORD hath not spoken.
And its
prophets have daubed for
them with chalk
, Seeing a
vain
thing
, and divining for
them a
lie
, Saying, `
Thus said
the Lord Jehovah:'
And
Jehovah
hath not spoken.
The people of the land have used oppression, and exercised
robbery
, and have
vexed
the
poor
and needy :
yea,
they
have oppressed the stranger
wrongfully
.
The people of the land have used oppression, And have
taken
plunder
violently
away
, And humble
and needy have oppressed ,
And
the sojourner
oppressed
--
without
judgment
.
And I sought
for
a man among
them,
that
should
make
up
the
hedge
, and stand
in the gap
before me for
the land ,
that
I
should
not destroy it :
but
I found none
.
And I seek
of
them
a man making
a
fence
, And standing
in the breach
before Me ,
In
behalf
of
the land --
not to
destroy it ,
And
I have
not
found.
Therefore
have
I poured
out mine indignation upon
them;
I
have
consumed
them
with
the
fire of my wrath :
their own
way have
I
recompensed
upon
their heads
, saith
the Lord GOD.
And
I pour
out on
them
mine indignation ,
By
fire of My wrath I
have
consumed
them,
Their way on
their own
head
I
have
put
, An
affirmation
of
the Lord Jehovah!'
