Berean Standard Bible BSB Bible
And
thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words,
though briers and thorns be with thee, and
thou dost dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks,
though they be a
rebellious house.
But you, son of man, do not be afraid of them or their words. Do not be afraid,
though briers and thorns
surround you, and you dwell among scorpions. Do not be afraid of their words or dismayed by their presence,
though they are a
rebellious house.
And
thou shalt speak my words unto them, whether they will hear, or whether they will
forbear: for they are most
rebellious.
But
thou, son of man, hear what I say unto thee; Be not
thou rebellious like that
rebellious house: open thy mouth, and eat that I give thee.
And you, son of man,
listen to what I tell you. Do not be
rebellious like that
rebellious house. Open your mouth and eat what I give you.”
Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, eat that thou findest; eat this roll, and go speak unto the house of Israel.
“Son of man,” He said to me, “eat what you find here. Eat this
scroll, then go and speak to the house of Israel.”
For thou art not sent to a people of a strange speech and of an hard language, but to the house of Israel;
For you are not being sent to a people of unfamiliar speech or difficult language, but to the house of Israel—
Not to many people of a strange speech and of an hard language, whose words
thou canst not understand. Surely, had I sent thee to them, they would have
hearkened unto thee.
not to the many peoples of unfamiliar speech and difficult language whose words you cannot understand. Surely if I had sent you to them, they would have
listened to you.
As an
adamant harder than flint have I made thy
forehead: fear them not, neither be dismayed at their looks,
though they be a
rebellious house.
I will make your
forehead like a
diamond, harder than flint. Do not be afraid of them or dismayed at their presence, even
though they are a
rebellious house.”
When I say unto the wicked,
Thou shalt surely die; and
thou givest him not
warning, nor speakest to
warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand.
If I say to the wicked man, ‘You will surely die,’ but you do not
warn him or speak out to
warn him from his wicked way to save his life, that wicked man will die in his iniquity, and I will hold you responsible for his blood.
Yet if
thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but
thou hast delivered thy soul.
But if you
warn a wicked man and he does not turn from his wickedness and his wicked way, he will die in his iniquity, but you will have saved
yourself.
Again, When a righteous man
doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumblingblock before him, he shall die: because
thou hast not given him
warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thine hand.
Now if a righteous man turns from his righteousness and commits iniquity, and I put a
stumbling block before him, he will die. If you did not
warn him, he will die in his sin, and the righteous acts he did will not be remembered. And I will hold you responsible for his blood.
Nevertheless if
thou warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he
doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he is
warned; also
thou hast delivered thy soul.
But if you
warn the righteous man not to sin, and he does not sin, he will indeed live because he
heeded your
warning, and you will have saved
yourself.”
But thou, O son of man, behold, they shall put bands upon thee, and shall bind thee with them, and thou shalt not go out among them:
And you, son of man, they will
tie with ropes, and you will be bound so that you cannot go out among the people.
And I will make thy tongue
cleave to the roof of thy mouth, that
thou shalt be
dumb, and shalt not be to them a reprover: for they are a
rebellious house.
I will make your tongue stick to the roof of your mouth, and you will be silent and unable to
rebuke them,
though they are a
rebellious house.
But when I speak with thee, I will open thy mouth, and
thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; He that heareth, let him hear; and he that forbeareth, let him
forbear: for they are a
rebellious house.
But when I speak with you, I will open your mouth, and you are to tell them, ‘This is what the Lord GOD says.’
Whoever listens, let him
listen; and
whoever refuses, let him refuse, for they are a
rebellious house.
Thou also, son of man, take thee a
tile, and lay it before thee, and
pourtray upon it the city, even Jerusalem:
“Now you, son of man, take a brick, place it before you, and draw on it the city of Jerusalem.
Moreover take thou unto thee an iron pan, and set it for a wall of iron between thee and the city: and set thy face against it, and it shall be besieged, and thou shalt lay siege against it. This shall be a sign to the house of Israel.
Then take an iron plate and set it up as an iron wall between
yourself and the city. Turn your face toward it so that it is under siege, and
besiege it. This will be a sign to the house of Israel.
Lie thou also upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it: according to the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon it thou shalt bear their iniquity.
Then lie down on your left side and place the iniquity of the house of Israel upon
yourself. You are to bear their iniquity for the number of days you lie on your side.
For I have laid upon thee the years of their iniquity, according to the number of the days, three hundred and
ninety days: so shalt
thou bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.
For I have assigned to you 390 days, according to the number of years of their iniquity. So you shall bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.
And when thou hast accomplished them, lie again on thy right side, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: I have appointed thee each day for a year.
When you have completed these days, lie down again, but on your right side, and bear the iniquity of the house of Judah. I have assigned to you 40 days, a day for each year.
Therefore
thou shalt set thy face toward the siege of Jerusalem, and thine arm shall be uncovered, and
thou shalt
prophesy against it.
You must turn your face toward the siege of Jerusalem with your arm bared, and
prophesy against it.
And, behold, I will lay bands upon thee, and thou shalt not turn thee from one side to another, till thou hast ended the days of thy siege.
Now behold, I will
tie you up with ropes so you cannot turn from side to side until you have finished the days of your siege.
Take
thou also unto thee wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentiles, and
millet, and
fitches, and put them in one vessel, and make thee bread thereof, according to the number of the days that
thou shalt lie upon thy side, three hundred and
ninety days shalt
thou eat thereof.
But take wheat, barley, beans, lentils,
millet, and
spelt; put them in a single container and make them into bread for
yourself. This is what you are to eat during the 390 days you lie on your side.
And thy meat which thou shalt eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels a day: from time to time shalt thou eat it.
You are to
weigh out twenty shekels of food to eat each day, and you are to eat it at set times.
Thou shalt drink also water by measure, the sixth part of an
hin: from time to time shalt
thou drink.
You are also to measure out a sixth of a
hin of water to drink, and you are to drink it at set times.
And
thou shalt eat it as barley cakes, and
thou shalt
bake it with dung that cometh out of man, in their sight.
And you shall eat the food as you would a barley
cake, after you
bake it over dried human
excrement in the sight of the people.”
Then he said unto me, Lo, I have given thee cow’s dung for man’s dung, and
thou shalt prepare thy bread
therewith.
“Look,” He replied, “I will let you use cow dung instead of human
excrement, and you may
bake your bread over that.”
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.
“As for you, son of man, take a sharp sword, use it as a
barber’s
razor, and
shave your head and
beard. Then take a set of scales and divide the hair.
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.
When the days of the siege have ended, you are to burn up a third of the hair inside the city; you are also to take a third and
slash it with the sword all around the city; and you are to
scatter a third to the wind. For I will
unleash a sword behind them.
Thou shalt also take thereof a few in number, and bind them in thy skirts.
But you are to take a few strands of hair and secure them in the folds of your garment.
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.
Therefore as surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, because you have
defiled My sanctuary with all your
detestable idols and abominations, I Myself will withdraw My favor; I will not look upon you with
pity, nor will I
spare you.
Also, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD unto the land of Israel; An end, the end is come upon the four corners of the land.
“O son of man, this is what the Lord GOD says to the land of Israel: ‘The end! The end has come upon the four corners of the land.
The morning is come unto thee, O thou that dwellest in the land: the time is come, the day of trouble is near, and not the sounding again of the mountains.
Doom has come to you, O inhabitants of the land. The time has come; the day is near; there is
panic on the mountains instead of shouts of joy.
He said
furthermore unto me, Son of man, seest
thou what they do? even the great abominations that the house of Israel committeth here, that I should go far off from my sanctuary? but turn thee yet again, and
thou shalt see greater abominations.
“Son of man,” He said to me, “do you see what they are doing—the great abominations that the house of Israel is
committing—to drive Me far from My sanctuary? Yet you will see even greater abominations.”
Then said he unto me, Son of man, hast
thou seen what the ancients of the house of Israel do in the dark, every man in the chambers of his
imagery? for they say, The LORD
seeth us not; the LORD hath
forsaken the earth.
“Son of man,” He said to me, “do you see what the elders of the house of Israel are doing in the darkness, each at the
shrine of his own
idol? For they are saying, ‘The LORD does not see us; the LORD has
forsaken the land.’”
He said also unto me, Turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations that they do.
Again, He told me, “You will see them
committing even greater abominations.”
Then said he unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations than these.
“Son of man,” He said to me, “do you see this? Yet you will see even greater abominations than these.”
Then he said unto me, Hast
thou seen this, O son of man? Is it a light thing to the house of Judah that they commit the abominations which they commit here? for they have filled the land with violence, and have returned to
provoke me to anger: and, lo, they put the branch to their nose.
“Son of man,” He said to me, “do you see this? Is it not enough for the house of Judah to commit the abominations they are practicing here, that they must also fill the land with violence and continually
provoke Me to anger? Look, they are even putting the branch to their nose!
Therefore will I also deal in
fury: mine eye shall not
spare, neither will I have
pity: and
though they cry in mine ears with a loud voice, yet will I not hear them.
Therefore I will
respond with wrath. I will not look on them with
pity, nor will I
spare them. Although they
shout loudly in My ears, I will not
listen to them.”
And it came to pass, while they were
slaying them, and I was left, that I fell upon my face, and
cried, and said,
Ah Lord GOD!
wilt thou destroy all the residue of Israel in thy pouring out of thy
fury upon Jerusalem?
While they were killing, I was left alone. And I fell facedown and
cried out, “Oh, Lord GOD, when You pour out Your wrath on Jerusalem, will You destroy the entire
remnant of Israel?”
And, behold, the man clothed with linen, which had the
inkhorn by his side, reported the matter, saying, I have done as
thou hast commanded me.
Then the man clothed in linen with the writing
kit at his side reported back, “I have done as You commanded.”
And the Spirit of the LORD fell upon me, and said unto me, Speak; Thus saith the LORD; Thus have ye said, O house of Israel: for I know the things that come into your mind, every one of them.
And the Spirit of the LORD fell upon me and told me to declare that this is what the LORD says: “That is what you are thinking, O house of Israel; and I know the thoughts that arise in your minds.
And it came to pass, when I
prophesied, that Pelatiah the son of Benaiah died. Then fell I down upon my face, and
cried with a loud voice, and said,
Ah Lord GOD!
wilt thou make a full end of the
remnant of Israel?
Now as I was
prophesying, Pelatiah son of Benaiah died. Then I fell facedown and
cried out in a loud voice, “Oh, Lord GOD, will You bring the
remnant of Israel to a complete end?”
Son of man,
thou dwellest in the midst of a
rebellious house, which have eyes to see, and see not; they have ears to hear, and hear not: for they are a
rebellious house.
“Son of man, you are living in a
rebellious house. They have eyes to see but do not see, and ears to hear but do not hear, for they are a
rebellious house.
Therefore,
thou son of man, prepare thee stuff for removing, and remove by day in their sight; and
thou shalt remove from thy place to another place in their sight: it may be they will consider,
though they be a
rebellious house.
Therefore, son of man,
pack your bags for exile. In broad
daylight, set out from your place and go to another as they watch. Perhaps they will understand,
though they are a
rebellious house.
Then shalt thou bring forth thy stuff by day in their sight, as stuff for removing: and thou shalt go forth at even in their sight, as they that go forth into captivity.
Bring out your
baggage for exile by day, as they watch. Then in the evening, as they watch, go out like those who go into exile.
Dig thou through the wall in their sight, and carry out thereby.
As they watch,
dig through the wall and carry your belongings out through it.
In their sight shalt
thou bear it upon thy shoulders, and carry it forth in the
twilight:
thou shalt cover thy face, that
thou see not the ground: for I have set thee for a sign unto the house of Israel.
And as they watch, lift your bags to your shoulder and take them out at
dusk; cover your face so that you cannot see the land. For I have made you a sign to the house of Israel.”
Son of man, hath not the house of Israel, the
rebellious house, said unto thee, What doest
thou?
“Son of man, hasn’t the
rebellious house of Israel asked you, ‘What are you doing?’
Say thou unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; This burden concerneth the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel that are among them.
Tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘This burden concerns the prince in Jerusalem and all the house of Israel who are there.’
My net also will I spread upon him, and he shall be taken in my
snare: and I will bring him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldeans; yet shall he not see it,
though he shall die there.
But I will spread My net over him, and he will be caught in My
snare. I will bring him to Babylon, the land of the Chaldeans; yet he will not see it, and there he will die.
Son of man,
prophesy against the prophets of Israel that
prophesy, and say
thou unto them that
prophesy out of their own hearts, Hear ye the word of the LORD;
“Son of man,
prophesy against the prophets of Israel who are now
prophesying. Tell those who
prophesy out of their own imagination: Hear the word of the LORD!
Have ye not seen a vain vision, and have ye not spoken a lying
divination, whereas ye say, The LORD saith it;
albeit I have not spoken?
Haven’t you seen a false vision and spoken a lying
divination when you
proclaim, ‘Thus declares the LORD,’ even
though I have not spoken?
Likewise,
thou son of man, set thy face against the daughters of thy people, which
prophesy out of their own heart; and
prophesy thou against them,
Now, O son of man, set your face against the daughters of your people who
prophesy out of their own imagination.
Prophesy against them
Because with lies ye have made the heart of the righteous
sad, whom I have not made
sad; and strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way, by promising him life:
Because you have
disheartened the righteous with your lies, even
though I have caused them no grief, and because you have encouraged the wicked not to turn from their evil ways to save their lives,
Though these three men,
Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they should deliver but their own souls by their righteousness, saith the Lord GOD.
then even if these three men—
Noah, Daniel, and Job—were in it, their righteousness could deliver only themselves, declares the Lord GOD.
Though these three men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters; they only shall be delivered, but the land shall be
desolate.
then as surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, even if these three men were in it, they could not deliver their own sons or daughters. They alone would be delivered, but the land would be
desolate.
Though these three men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters, but they only shall be delivered themselves.
then as surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, even if these three men were in it, they could not deliver their own sons or daughters. They alone would be delivered.
Though Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, as I live, saith the Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither son nor daughter; they shall but deliver their own souls by their righteousness.
then as surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, even if
Noah, Daniel, and Job were in it, they could not deliver their own sons or daughters. Their righteousness could deliver only themselves.
And I will set my face against them; they shall go out from one fire, and another fire shall
devour them; and ye shall know that I am the LORD, when I set my face against them.
And I will set My face against them.
Though they may have escaped the fire, yet another fire will
consume them. And when I set My face against them, you will know that I am the LORD.
On the day of your birth your cord was not cut, nor were you washed with water for
cleansing. You were not
rubbed with salt or
wrapped in cloths.
None eye
pitied thee, to do any of these unto thee, to have
compassion upon thee; but
thou wast cast out in the open field, to the
lothing of thy person, in the day that
thou wast born.
No one cared enough for you to do even one of these things out of
compassion for you. Instead, you were thrown out into the open field, because you were
despised on the day of your birth.
And when I passed by thee, and saw thee
polluted in thine own blood, I said unto thee when
thou wast in thy blood, Live;
yea, I said unto thee when
thou wast in thy blood, Live.
Then I passed by and saw you
wallowing in your blood, and as you lay there in your blood I said to you, ‘Live!’ There I said to you, ‘Live!’
I have caused thee to multiply as the
bud of the field, and
thou hast increased and
waxen great, and
thou art come to excellent ornaments: thy breasts are fashioned, and thine hair is grown, whereas
thou wast naked and bare.
I made you
thrive like a plant of the field. You grew up and
matured and became very beautiful. Your breasts were formed and your hair grew, but you were naked and bare.
Now when I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold, thy time was the time of love; and I spread my
skirt over thee, and covered thy nakedness:
yea, I
sware unto thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord GOD, and
thou becamest mine.
Then I passed by and saw you, and you were indeed old enough for love. So I spread My
cloak over you and covered your nakedness. I
pledged Myself to you, entered into a covenant with you, and you became Mine, declares the Lord GOD.
Thus
wast thou decked with gold and silver; and thy
raiment was of fine linen, and silk, and
broidered work;
thou didst eat fine flour, and honey, and oil: and
thou wast exceeding beautiful, and
thou didst prosper into a kingdom.
So you were adorned with gold and silver, and your clothing was made of fine linen, silk, and
embroidered cloth. You
ate fine flour, honey, and oil. You became very beautiful and rose to be queen.
But
thou didst trust in thine own beauty, and playedst the
harlot because of thy
renown, and pouredst out thy fornications on every one that passed by; his it was.
But because of your fame, you trusted in your beauty and played the
harlot. You
lavished your favors on
everyone who passed by, and your beauty was theirs for the asking.
And of thy garments
thou didst take, and deckedst thy high places with
divers colours, and playedst the
harlot thereupon: the like things shall not come, neither shall it be so.
You took some of your garments and made colorful high places for
yourself, and on them you
prostituted yourself. Such things should not have happened; never should they have occurred!
Thou hast also taken thy fair jewels of my gold and of my silver, which I had given thee, and madest to
thyself images of men, and
didst commit
whoredom with them,
You also took the fine
jewelry of gold and silver I had given you, and you made male idols with which to
prostitute yourself.
And tookest thy
broidered garments, and coveredst them: and
thou hast set mine oil and mine incense before them.
You took your
embroidered garments to cover them, and you set My oil and incense before them.
My meat also which I gave thee, fine flour, and oil, and honey,
wherewith I fed thee,
thou hast even set it before them for a sweet savour: and thus it was, saith the Lord GOD.
And you set before them as a pleasing
aroma the food I had given you—the fine flour, oil, and honey that I had fed you. That is what happened, declares the Lord GOD.
Moreover
thou hast taken thy sons and thy daughters, whom
thou hast borne unto me, and these hast
thou sacrificed unto them to be
devoured. Is this of thy whoredoms a small matter,
You even took the sons and daughters you bore to Me and sacrificed them as food to idols. Was your
prostitution not enough?
That thou hast slain my children, and delivered them to cause them to pass through the fire for them?
You slaughtered My children and delivered them up through the fire to idols.
And in all thine abominations and thy whoredoms
thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, when
thou wast naked and bare, and
wast polluted in thy blood.
And in all your abominations and acts of
prostitution, you did not remember the days of your youth when you were naked and bare,
wallowing in your own blood.
That thou hast also built unto thee an eminent place, and hast made thee an high place in every street.
Thou hast built thy high place at every head of the way, and hast made thy beauty to be
abhorred, and hast opened thy feet to every one that passed by, and multiplied thy whoredoms.
At the head of every street you built your lofty shrines and
degraded your beauty. With increasing
promiscuity, you spread your legs to all who passed by.
Thou hast also committed
fornication with the Egyptians thy neighbours, great of flesh; and hast increased thy whoredoms, to
provoke me to anger.
Thou hast played the
whore also with the Assyrians, because
thou wast unsatiable;
yea,
thou hast played the
harlot with them, and yet couldest not be satisfied.
Then you
prostituted yourself with the Assyrians, because you were not yet satisfied. Even after that, you were still not satisfied.
So you extended your
promiscuity to
Chaldea, the land of merchants—but even with this you were not satisfied!
How weak is thine heart, saith the Lord GOD, seeing
thou doest all these things, the work of an
imperious whorish woman;
How weak-willed is your heart, declares the Lord GOD, while you do all these things, the acts of a shameless
prostitute!
In that
thou buildest thine eminent place in the head of every way, and makest thine high place in every street; and hast not been as an
harlot, in that
thou scornest
hire;
But when you built your mounds at the head of every street and made your lofty shrines in every public square, you were not even like a
prostitute, because you
scorned payment.
They give gifts to all whores: but
thou givest thy gifts to all thy lovers, and hirest them, that they may come unto thee on every side for thy
whoredom.
Men give gifts to all their prostitutes, but you gave gifts to all your lovers. You
bribed them to come to you from everywhere for your
illicit favors.
And the contrary is in thee from other women in thy whoredoms, whereas none followeth thee to commit whoredoms: and in that thou givest a reward, and no reward is given unto thee, therefore thou art contrary.
So your
prostitution is the opposite of that of other women: No one
solicited your favors, and you paid a fee instead of receiving one; so you are the very opposite!
Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thy
filthiness was poured out, and thy nakedness discovered through thy whoredoms with thy lovers, and with all the idols of thy abominations, and by the blood of thy children, which
thou didst give unto them;
This is what the Lord GOD says: Because you poured out your wealth and exposed your nakedness in your
promiscuity with your lovers and with all your
detestable idols, and because of the blood of your children which you gave to them,
Behold, therefore I will gather all thy lovers, with whom
thou hast taken pleasure, and all them that
thou hast loved, with all them that
thou hast
hated; I will even gather them round about against thee, and will discover thy nakedness unto them, that they may see all thy nakedness.
therefore I will surely gather all the lovers with whom you found pleasure, all those you loved and all those you
hated. I will gather them against you from all around and
expose you before them, and they will see you completely naked.
And they shall burn thine houses with fire, and
execute judgments upon thee in the sight of many women: and I will cause thee to cease from playing the
harlot, and
thou also shalt give no
hire any more.
Then they will burn down your houses and
execute judgment against you in the sight of many women. I will put an end to your
prostitution, and you will never again pay your lovers.
Because
thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, but hast
fretted me in all these things; behold, therefore I also will
recompense thy way upon thine head, saith the Lord GOD: and
thou shalt not commit this
lewdness above all thine abominations.
Because you did not remember the days of your youth, but
enraged Me with all these things, I will surely bring your deeds down upon your own head, declares the Lord GOD. Have you not committed this
lewdness on top of all your other abominations?
Thou art thy mother’s daughter, that lotheth her husband and her children; and
thou art the sister of thy sisters, which
lothed their husbands and their children: your mother was an Hittite, and your father an Amorite.
You are the daughter of your mother, who
despised her husband and children. You are the sister of your sisters, who
despised their husbands and children. Your mother was a Hittite and your father an Amorite.
Yet hast
thou not walked after their ways, nor done after their abominations: but, as if that were a very little thing,
thou wast corrupted more than they in all thy ways.
And you not only walked in their ways and practiced their abominations, but soon you were more
depraved than they were.
As I live, saith the Lord GOD,
Sodom thy sister hath not done, she nor her daughters, as
thou hast done,
thou and thy daughters.
As surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, your sister
Sodom and her daughters never did as you and your daughters have done.
Neither hath Samaria committed half of thy sins; but thou hast multiplied thine abominations more than they, and hast justified thy sisters in all thine abominations which thou hast done.
Furthermore, Samaria did not commit half the sins you did. You have multiplied your abominations beyond theirs, and all the abominations you have committed have made your sisters appear righteous.
Thou also, which hast judged thy sisters, bear thine own shame for thy sins that
thou hast committed more
abominable than they: they are more righteous than
thou:
yea, be
thou confounded also, and bear thy shame, in that
thou hast justified thy sisters.
So now you must bear your disgrace, since you have brought
justification for your sisters. For they appear more righteous than you, because your sins were more
vile than theirs. So you too must bear your shame and disgrace, since you have made your sisters appear righteous.
That thou mayest bear thine own shame, and mayest be confounded in all that thou hast done, in that thou art a comfort unto them.
So you will bear your disgrace and be
ashamed of all you did to comfort them.
When thy sisters,
Sodom and her daughters, shall return to their former estate, and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their former estate, then
thou and thy daughters shall return to your former estate.
And your sisters,
Sodom with her daughters and Samaria with her daughters, will return to their former state. You and your daughters will also return to your former state.
Thou hast borne thy
lewdness and thine abominations, saith the LORD.
You will bear the consequences of your
lewdness and your abominations, declares the LORD.
For thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even deal with thee as
thou hast done, which hast
despised the oath in breaking the covenant.
For this is what the Lord GOD says: I will deal with you according to your deeds, since you have
despised the oath by breaking the covenant.
Then
thou shalt remember thy ways, and be
ashamed, when
thou shalt receive thy sisters, thine elder and thy younger: and I will give them unto thee for daughters, but not by thy covenant.
Then you will remember your ways and be
ashamed when you receive your older and younger sisters. I will give them to you as daughters, but not because of My covenant with you.
And I will establish my covenant with thee; and thou shalt know that I am the LORD:
So I will establish My covenant with you, and you will know that I am the LORD,
That
thou mayest remember, and be confounded, and never open thy mouth any more because of thy shame, when I am
pacified toward thee for all that
thou hast done, saith the Lord GOD.
so that when I make
atonement for all you have done, you will remember and be
ashamed and never again open your mouth because of your disgrace, declares the Lord GOD.”
Say
thou, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Shall it
prosper? shall he not pull up the roots thereof, and cut off the fruit thereof, that it wither? it shall wither in all the leaves of her spring, even without great power or many people to
pluck it up by the roots thereof.
So you are to tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Will it
flourish? Will it not be uprooted and
stripped of its fruit so that it shrivels? All its foliage will wither! It will not take a strong arm or many people to pull it up by its roots.
And that doeth not any of those duties, but even hath eaten upon the mountains, and
defiled his neighbour’s wife,
though the father has done none of them: Indeed, the son eats at the mountain and defiles his
neighbor’s wife.
