King James Version
`
And thou, son of man, take to
thee a sharp weapon
, the
barber's
razor
thou
dost
take to
thee, and thou
hast
caused
`
it '
to pass over
thy
head ,
and over
thy beard ,
and
thou
hast
taken
to
thee weighing
scales
, and apportioned
them
.
And thou, son of man, take thee a sharp knife
, take thee a
barber's
razor
, and cause
it to pass upon
thine
head and upon
thy beard :
then
take
thee balances
to
weigh
, and divide
the
hair
.
A third part with
fire
thou
dost
burn
in the midst of the city, at
the
fulness
of
the days of the siege ;
and thou hast
taken
the
third part, thou
dost
smite with
a
weapon
round
about it ;
and the
third part thou dost
scatter to
the wind ,
and a
weapon
I draw out after them.
Thou
shalt
burn
with
fire
a third part in the midst of the city, when
the days of the siege are
fulfilled:
and thou shalt
take
a
third part, and
smite about it with
a
knife:
and a
third part thou shalt
scatter in
the wind ;
and I will
draw out a
sword
after them.
And
thou hast
taken
thence
a few in number --
and hast
bound
them in thy skirts ;
Thou shalt
also
take
thereof
a few in number ,
and bind
them in thy skirts .
and
of them thou
dost
take
again, and hast
cast them unto
the midst of the fire, and hast
burned
them in the fire --
out
of
it
cometh
forth
a fire unto
all the house of Israel.
Then
take
of them again, and cast them into
the midst of the fire, and burn
them in the fire ;
for
thereof
shall
a fire come
forth
into
all the house of Israel.
Thus said
the Lord Jehovah:
this `
is '
Jerusalem ,
In the midst of the nations I
have
set
her,
And round about her `are'
the
lands
.
Thus saith
the Lord GOD;
This is Jerusalem :
I
have
set
it
in the midst of the nations and countries
that
are
round about her.
And she changeth
My judgments into wickedness more than the nations, And My statutes more than the lands
that `
are '
round about her ,
For against
My
judgments
they have kicked,
And My statutes --
they have not walked in them.
And she hath
changed
my judgments into wickedness more than the nations, and my statutes more than the countries
that are round about her :
for they have refused
my
judgments
and my statutes ,
they have not walked in them.
Therefore ,
thus said
the Lord Jehovah:
Because of
your
multiplying
above
the nations that `
are '
around
you, In
My
statutes
ye
have not walked, And
My judgments ye
have not
done ,
According to the judgments of the nations That `
are '
round about you ye
have
not
done.
Therefore thus saith
the Lord GOD;
Because ye
multiplied
more
than
the nations that are round
about
you, and
have not walked in
my
statutes
, neither
have
kept
my judgments ,
neither
have done according to the judgments of the nations that are round about you ;
Therefore ,
thus said
the Lord Jehovah:
Lo
, I `am'
against
thee
, even I, And I
have
done
in thy
midst judgments,
Before
the eyes
of the nations.
Therefore thus saith
the Lord GOD;
Behold
, I, even I, am
against
thee,
and will
execute
judgments
in the
midst of
thee
in
the sight
of the nations.
And I have
done
in thee that which I have not done, And that
which
I do
not its
like again
, Because of all thine abominations.
And I will
do
in thee that which I have not done, and whereunto
I will
not do
any
more
the
like, because of all thine abominations.
Therefore fathers do
eat sons in thy
midst, And sons eat their fathers ,
And I have
done
in thee judgments
, And have
scattered
all
thy
remnant to
every
wind
.
Therefore the
fathers shall
eat the
sons in the
midst of
thee
, and the
sons shall
eat their fathers ;
and I will
execute
judgments
in thee, and the
whole
remnant of
thee
will
I
scatter
into
all
the
winds
.
Therefore
, I live --
an
affirmation
of
the Lord Jehovah:
Because My
sanctuary
thou hast defiled ,
With all thy detestable things, And with all thine abominations, Mine eye pitieth
not
, and
I also
spare
not
. Do
not
even
I
also
diminish?
Wherefore
, as
I live ,
saith
the Lord GOD;
Surely,
because thou hast defiled my
sanctuary
with all thy detestable things, and with all thine abominations, therefore
will
I
also
diminish
thee;
neither
shall
mine eye spare
, neither
will
I have
any
pity
.
Thy
third part --
by
pestilence
they
die, And by
famine are
consumed in thy
midst ,
And the
third part ,
by sword they
fall
round about thee ,
And the
third
part,
to
every
wind
I scatter, And a
sword
I draw out after them.
A
third part of
thee
shall
die with
the
pestilence
, and with
famine shall
they
be
consumed in the
midst of
thee:
and a
third part shall
fall
by the
sword round about thee ;
and I will
scatter a
third
part
into
all
the
winds
, and I will
draw out a
sword
after them.
And
completed
hath
been
Mine anger, And I have
caused
My fury to rest on
them, And I have
been
comforted ,
And they have
known
that I ,
Jehovah,
have spoken in My zeal, In
My
completing
My fury on
them.
Thus
shall
mine anger be
accomplished
, and I will
cause
my fury to rest upon
them, and I will
be
comforted :
and they shall
know
that I the
LORD
have spoken it
in my zeal, when
I
have
accomplished
my fury in
them.
And
I give
thee for
a
waste, And for
a reproach among nations that `
are '
round about thee, Before
the eyes
of every
passer
by.
Moreover
I will
make
thee waste, and a reproach among the
nations that are round about thee, in
the sight
of all
that
pass
by.
And
it hath
been
a reproach and a reviling
, An instruction and an astonishment ,
To
nations that `
are '
round about thee, In
My
doing
in thee judgments,
In anger and fury ,
and in furious reproofs,
I ,
Jehovah,
have spoken.
So
it shall
be
a reproach and a taunt
, an instruction and an astonishment unto
the
nations that are round about thee, when
I
shall
execute
judgments
in thee in anger and in
fury and in furious rebukes.
I the
LORD
have spoken it
.
In
My
sending
the evil arrows of famine among
them
, That
have
been
for destruction, That
I send to destroy you ,
And famine
I am
adding
upon you, And I
have
broken
to
you
the
staff of bread .
When
I
shall
send
upon
them
the evil arrows of famine, which
shall
be
for their
destruction, and
which
I will
send to destroy you :
and I will
increase
the
famine
upon you, and will
break
your
staff of bread :
And
I have
sent
on
you famine and evil beasts, And they have
bereaved
thee ,
And pestilence and blood pass over
on
thee ,
And a
sword
I do
bring in
against
thee ,
I ,
Jehovah,
have spoken !'
So
will
I send
upon
you famine and evil beasts, and they shall
bereave
thee :
and pestilence and blood shall
pass through
thee ;
and I will
bring the
sword
upon
thee .
I the
LORD
have spoken it.
