polluted with their idols.

thee in the low parts of the earth, in places
desolate of old, with them that go down to the pit, that thou be not inhabited; and I shall set glory in the land of the living;

anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set
thee so: thou
wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.

anointed as a
guardian cherub, for I had ordained you. You were on the holy mountain of God; you walked among the
fiery stones.
Thou
wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou
wast created, till iniquity was found in
thee.
From the day you were created you were
blameless in your ways— until wickedness was found in you.
By the multitude of thy
merchandise they have filled the midst of

sinned: therefore I will cast
thee as
profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy
thee, O covering
cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.

sinned. So I drove you in disgrace from the mountain of God, and I banished you, O

haul you up out of your rivers, and all the fish of your streams will
cling to your scales.

I will leave you in the desert, you and all the fish of your streams. You will fall on the open field and will not be taken away or gathered for burial. I have given you as food to the beasts of the earth and the birds of the air.

splintered,
tearing all their shoulders; when they
leaned on you, you broke, and their backs were

I will
abandon you on the land and
hurl you into the open field. I will cause all the birds of the air to settle upon you, and all the beasts of the earth to eat their fill of you.
I will also water with thy blood the land wherein thou swimmest, even to the mountains; and the rivers shall be full of thee.
I will
drench the land with the flow of your blood, all the way to the mountains— the ravines will be filled.
And when I shall put thee out, I will cover the heaven, and make the stars thereof dark; I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon shall not give her light.

extinguish you, I will cover the heavens and

thee a
watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and
warn them from me.

watchman for the house of Israel; so hear the word from My mouth and give them the
warning from Me.
Also, thou son of man, the children of thy people still are talking against thee by the walls and in the doors of the houses, and speak one to another, every one to his brother, saying, Come, I pray you, and hear what is the word that cometh forth from the LORD.
As for you, son of man, your people are talking about you near the city walls and in the doorways of their houses. One speaks to another, each saying to his brother, ‘Come and hear the message that has come from the LORD!’
And they come unto
thee as the people cometh, and they sit before
thee as my people, and they hear thy words, but they will not do them: for with their mouth they
shew much love, but their heart goeth after their
covetousness.
So My people come to you as usual, sit before you, and hear your words; but they do not put them into practice. Although they express love with their mouths, their hearts pursue
dishonest gain.

thee unto blood, and blood shall pursue
thee:

bloodshed and it will pursue you. Since you did not
hate bloodshed, it will pursue you.
I will make thee perpetual desolations, and thy cities shall not return: and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
I will make you a perpetual
desolation, and your cities will not be inhabited. Then you will know that I am the LORD.
Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord GOD, I will even do according to thine anger, and according to thine
envy which thou hast used out of thy hatred against them; and I will make myself known among them, when I have judged
thee.
therefore as surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, I will treat you according to the anger and jealousy you showed in your hatred against them, and I will make Myself known among them when I judge you.
Thus saith the Lord GOD; When the whole earth rejoiceth, I will make
thee desolate.
This is what the Lord GOD says: While the whole earth rejoices, I will make you
desolate.
As thou
didst rejoice at the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was
desolate, so will I do unto
thee: thou shalt be
desolate, O mount
Seir, and all
Idumea, even all of it: and they shall know that I am the LORD.
As you
rejoiced when the inheritance of the house of Israel became
desolate, so will I do to you. You will become a
desolation, O Mount
Seir, and so will all of
Edom. Then they will know that I am the LORD.

I will no longer allow the taunts of the nations to be heard against you, and you will no longer
endure the reproach of the peoples or cause your nation to
stumble, declares the Lord GOD.”
Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel his companions:
“And you, son of man, take a single stick and write on it: ‘Belonging to Judah and to the Israelites associated with him.’ Then take another stick and write on it: ‘Belonging to Joseph—the stick of Ephraim—and to all the house of Israel associated with him.’
And when the children of thy people shall speak unto
thee, saying,
Wilt thou not
shew us what thou meanest by these?
When your people ask you, ‘Won’t you explain to us what you mean by these?’
And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold I am against
thee, O
Gog, the chief prince of
Meshech and
Tubal:

Gog, chief prince of
Meshech and

thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws, and I will bring

thyself, thou, and all thy company that are assembled unto
thee, and be thou a guard unto them.

yourself, you and all your company gathered around you; you will be their guard.

ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with
thee.
You and all your troops, and many peoples with you will go up, advancing like a
thunderstorm; you will be like a cloud covering the land.

Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto

spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great
spoil?
Sheba and Dedan and the merchants of
Tarshish with all its villages will ask, ‘Have you come to capture the
plunder? Have you assembled your hordes to carry away
loot, to make off with silver and gold, to take cattle and goods, to seize great
spoil?’
And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou, and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty army:

prophesied for years that I would bring you against them?

I will turn you around, drive you along, bring you up from the far north, and send you against the mountains of Israel.
Thou shalt fall upon the mountains of Israel, thou, and all thy bands, and the people that is with
thee: I will give
thee unto the
ravenous birds of every sort, and to the beasts of the field to be
devoured.
On the mountains of Israel you will fall—you and all your troops and the nations with you. I will give you as food to every kind of
ravenous bird and wild beast.
And the man said unto me, Son of man, behold with thine eyes, and hear with thine ears, and set thine heart upon all that I shall
shew thee; for to the intent that I might
shew them unto
thee art thou brought
hither: declare all that thou seest to the house of Israel.
“Son of man,” he said to me, “look with your eyes, hear with your ears, and pay attention to everything I am going to show you, for that is why you have been brought here. Report to the house of Israel everything you see.”

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.
Prove thy servants, I
beseech thee, ten days; and let them give us
pulse to eat, and water to drink.
“Please test your servants for ten days. Let us be given only vegetables to eat and water to drink.
Then let our countenances be looked upon before thee, and the countenance of the children that eat of the portion of the king’s meat: and as thou seest, deal with thy servants.
Then compare our appearances with those of the young men who are eating the royal food, and deal with your servants according to what you see.”
I
thank thee, and praise
thee, O thou God of my fathers, who hast given me wisdom and might, and hast made known unto me now what we desired of
thee: for thou hast now made known unto us the king’s matter.
To You, O God of my fathers, I give
thanks and praise, because You have given me wisdom and power. And now You have made known to me what we have requested, for You have made known to us the dream of the king.”
As for
thee, O king, thy thoughts came into thy mind upon thy bed, what should come to pass
hereafter: and he that revealeth secrets maketh known to
thee what shall come to pass.
As you lay on your bed, O king, your thoughts turned to the future, and the
Revealer of Mysteries made known to you what will happen.
Thou, O king, sawest, and behold a great image. This great image, whose brightness was excellent, stood before thee; and the form thereof was terrible.
As you, O king, were watching, a great statue appeared. A great and
dazzling statue stood before you, and its form was
awesome.
Thou, O king, art a king of kings: for the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, power, and strength, and glory.
You, O king, are the king of kings, to whom the God of heaven has given sovereignty, power, strength, and glory.
