Ezekiel 24	Ezekiel 24
Ezekiel 24:1 Again, in the ninth year, in the tenth month, in the tenth [day] of the month, the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,	Ezekiel 24:1 And the word of the Lord came to me in the ninth year, in the tenth month, on the tenth day of the month, saying,
Ezekiel 24:2 Son of man, write thee the name of the day, [even] of this selfsame day: the king of Babylon drew close unto Jerusalem this selfsame day.	Ezekiel 24:2 Son of man, put down in writing this very day: The king of Babylon let loose the weight of his attack against Jerusalem on this very day.
Ezekiel 24:3 And utter a parable unto the rebellious house, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah, Set on the caldron, set it on, and also pour water into it:	Ezekiel 24:3 And make a comparison for this uncontrolled people, and say to them, This is what the Lord has said: Put on the cooking-pot, put it on the fire and put water in it:
Ezekiel 24:4 gather the pieces thereof into it, even every good piece, the thigh, and the shoulder; fill it with the choice bones.	Ezekiel 24:4 And get the bits together, the fat tail, every good part, the leg and the top part of it: make it full of the best bones.
Ezekiel 24:5 Take the choice of the flock, and also a pile [of wood] for the bones under [the caldron]; make it boil well; yea, let the bones thereof be boiled in the midst of it.	Ezekiel 24:5 Take the best of the flock, put much wood under it: see that its bits are boiling well; let the bones be cooked inside it.
Ezekiel 24:6 Wherefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Woe to the bloody city, to the caldron whose rust is therein, and whose rust is not gone out of it! take out of it piece after piece; No lot is fallen upon it.	Ezekiel 24:6 For this is what the Lord has said: A curse is on the town of blood, the cooking-pot which is unclean inside, which has never been made clean! take out its bits; its fate is still to come on it.
Ezekiel 24:7 For her blood is in the midst of her; she set it upon the bare rock; she poured it not upon the ground, to cover it with dust.	Ezekiel 24:7 For her blood is in her; she has put it on the open rock not draining it on to the earth so that it might be covered with dust;
Ezekiel 24:8 That it may cause wrath to come up to take vengeance, I have set her blood upon the bare rock, that it should not be covered.	Ezekiel 24:8 In order that it might make wrath come up to give punishment, she has put her blood on the open rock, so that it may not be covered.
Ezekiel 24:9 Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Woe to the bloody city! I also will make the pile great.	Ezekiel 24:9 For this cause the Lord has said: A curse is on the town of blood! and I will make great the burning mass.
Ezekiel 24:10 Heap on the wood, make the fire hot, boil well the flesh, and make thick the broth, and let the bones be burned.	Ezekiel 24:10 Put on much wood, heating up the fire, boiling the flesh well, and making the soup thick, and let the bones be burned.
Ezekiel 24:11 Then set it empty upon the coals thereof, that it may be hot, and the brass thereof may burn, and that the filthiness of it may be molten in it, that the rust of it may be consumed.	Ezekiel 24:11 And I will put her on the coals so that she may be heated and her brass burned, so that what is unclean in her may become soft and her waste be completely taken away.
Ezekiel 24:12 She hath wearied [herself] with toil; yet her great rust goeth not forth out of her; her rust [goeth not forth] by fire.	Ezekiel 24:12 I have made myself tired to no purpose: still all the waste which is in her has not come out, it has an evil smell.
Ezekiel 24:13 In thy filthiness is lewdness: because I have cleansed thee and thou wast not cleansed, thou shalt not be cleansed from thy filthiness any more, till I have caused my wrath toward thee to rest.	Ezekiel 24:13 As for your unclean purpose: because I have been attempting to make you clean, but you have not been made clean from it, you will not be made clean till I have let loose my passion on you in full measure.
Ezekiel 24:14 I, Jehovah, have spoken it: it shall come to pass, and I will do it: I will not go back, neither will I spare, neither will I repent; according to thy ways, and according to thy doings, shall they judge thee, saith the Lord Jehovah.	Ezekiel 24:14 I the Lord have said the word and I will do it; I will not go back or have mercy, and my purpose will not be changed; in the measure of your ways and of your evil doings you will be judged, says the Lord.
Ezekiel 24:15 Also the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,	Ezekiel 24:15 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Ezekiel 24:16 Son of man, behold, I take away from thee the desire of thine eyes with a stroke: yet thou shalt neither mourn nor weep, neither shall thy tears run down.	Ezekiel 24:16 Son of man, see, I am taking away the desire of your eyes by disease: but let there be no sorrow or weeping or drops running from your eyes.
Ezekiel 24:17 Sigh, but not aloud, make no mourning for the dead; bind thy headtire upon thee, and put thy shoes upon thy feet, and cover not thy lips, and eat not the bread of men.	Ezekiel 24:17 Let there be no sound of sorrow; make no weeping for your dead, put on your head-dress and your shoes on your feet, let not your lips be covered, and do not take the food of those in grief.
Ezekiel 24:18 So I spake unto the people in the morning; and at even my wife died; and I did in the morning as I was commanded.	Ezekiel 24:18 So in the morning I was teaching the people and in the evening death took my wife; and in the morning I did what I had been ordered to do.
Ezekiel 24:19 And the people said unto me, Wilt thou not tell us what these things are to us, that thou doest so?	Ezekiel 24:19 And the people said to me, Will you not make clear to us the sense of these things; is it for us you do them?
Ezekiel 24:20 Then I said unto them, The word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,	Ezekiel 24:20 Then I said to them, The word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Ezekiel 24:21 Speak unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I will profane my sanctuary, the pride of your power, the desire of your eyes, and that which your soul pitieth; and your sons and your daughters whom ye have left behind shall fall by the sword.	Ezekiel 24:21 Say to the people of Israel, The Lord has said, See, I will make my holy place unclean, the pride of your strength, the pleasure of your eyes, and the desire of your soul; and your sons and daughters, who did not come with you here, will be put to the sword.
Ezekiel 24:22 And ye shall do as I have done: ye shall not cover your lips, nor eat the bread of men.	Ezekiel 24:22 And you will do as I have done, not covering your lips or taking the food of those in grief.
Ezekiel 24:23 And your tires shall be upon your heads, and your shoes upon your feet: ye shall not mourn nor weep; but ye shall pine away in your iniquities, and moan one toward another.	Ezekiel 24:23 And your head-dresses will be on your heads and your shoes on your feet: there will be no sorrow or weeping; but you will be wasting away in the punishment of your evil-doing, and you will be looking at one another in wonder.
Ezekiel 24:24 Thus shall Ezekiel be unto you a sign; according to all that he hath done shall ye do: when this cometh, then shall ye know that I am the Lord Jehovah.	Ezekiel 24:24 And Ezekiel will be a sign to you; everything he has done you will do: when this takes place, you will be certain that I am the Lord.
Ezekiel 24:25 And thou, son of man, shall it not be in the day when I take from them their strength, the joy of their glory, the desire of their eyes, and that whereupon they set their heart, their sons and their daughters,	Ezekiel 24:25 And as for you, son of man, your mouth will be shut in the day when I take from them their strength, the joy of their glory, the desire of their eyes, and that on which their hearts are fixed, and their sons and daughters.
Ezekiel 24:26 that in that day he that escapeth shall come unto thee, to cause thee to hear it with thine ears?	Ezekiel 24:26 In that day, one who has got away safe will come to you to give you news of it.
Ezekiel 24:27 In that day shall thy mouth be opened to him that is escaped, and thou shalt speak, and be no more dumb: so shalt thou be a sign unto them; and they shall know that I am Jehovah.	Ezekiel 24:27 In that day your mouth will be open to him who has got away safe, and you will say words to him and your lips will no longer be shut: so you will be a sign to them and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
