fury upon them to
accomplish my anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt.

sore slaughter; it is
furbished that it may
glitter: should we then make

rejoice in the
scepter of My son? The sword despises
every such stick.

shepherd, neither did my
shepherds search for my flock, but the
shepherds fed themselves, and fed not my flock;

ever, and my holy name, shall the house of Israel no more
defile, neither they, nor their kings, by their
whoredom, nor by the carcases of their kings in their high places.
and He said to me, “Son of man, this is the place of My throne and the place for the soles of My feet, where I will dwell among the Israelites
forever. The house of Israel will never again
defile My holy name—neither they nor their kings—by their
prostitution and by the funeral offerings for their kings at their deaths.

ever.
Now let them remove far from Me their
prostitution and the funeral offerings for their kings, and I will dwell among them
forever.

The LORD said to me: “Son of man, pay attention; look carefully with your eyes and
listen closely with your ears to
everything I tell you concerning all the statutes and laws of the house of the LORD. Take careful note of the entrance to the temple, along with all the exits of the sanctuary.

appoint them to keep charge of all the work for the temple and
everything to be done in it.

blemish: thou shalt prepare it
every morning.

unblemished year-old lamb as a daily burnt offering to the LORD; you are to offer it
every morning.
And thou shalt prepare a meat offering for it
every morning, the sixth part of an
ephah, and the third part of an
hin of oil, to temper with the fine flour; a meat offering continually by a perpetual
ordinance unto the LORD.
You are also to provide with it
every morning a grain offering of a sixth of an
ephah with a third of a
hin of oil to
moisten the fine flour—a grain offering to the LORD. This is a permanent statute.
Thus shall they prepare the lamb, and the meat offering, and the oil, every morning for a continual burnt offering.
Thus they shall provide the lamb, the grain offering, and the oil every morning as a regular burnt offering.’
Moreover the prince shall not take of the people’s inheritance by oppression, to thrust them out of their possession; but he shall give his sons inheritance out of his own possession: that my people be not scattered every man from his possession.

evicting them from their property. He is to provide an inheritance for his sons from his own property, so that none of My people will be displaced from his property.’”
Then he brought me forth into the utter court, and caused me to pass by the four corners of the court; and, behold, in every corner of the court there was a court.

And it shall come to pass, that
every thing that liveth, which moveth,
whithersoever the rivers shall come, shall live: and there shall be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters shall come thither: for they shall be
healed; and
every thing shall live
whither the river cometh.
Wherever the river flows, there will be swarms of living creatures and a great number of fish, because it flows there and makes the waters fresh; so wherever the river flows,
everything will
flourish.

magician, or
astrologer, or
Chaldean.
The astrologers answered the king, “No one on earth can do what the king requests! No king, however great and powerful, has
ever asked anything like this of any
magician,
enchanter, or
astrologer.

And at the end of the days I
Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the most High, and I praised and honoured him that liveth for
