Ezekiel 7

1Moreover the word of the Yahuah came unto me, saying, 2Also, you son of man, thus says the Lord GOD unto the land of Israel; An end, the end is come upon the four corners of the land. 3Now the end upon you, and I will send mine anger upon you, and will judge you according to your ways, and will recompense upon you all your abominations. 4And mine eye shall not spare you, neither will I have pity: but I will recompense your ways upon you, and your abominations shall be in the midst of you: and ye shall know that I the Yahuah. 5Thus says the Lord GOD; An evil, an only evil, behold, is come. 6An end is come, the end is come: it watcheth for you; behold, it is come. 7The morning is come unto you, O you that dwellest in the land: the time is come, the day of trouble near, and not the sounding again of the mountains. 8Now will I shortly pour out my fury upon you, and accomplish mine anger upon you: and I will judge you according to your ways, and will recompense you for all your abominations. 9And mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity: I will recompense you according to your ways and your abominations are in the midst of you; and ye shall know that I the Yahuah that smiteth. 10Behold the day, behold, it is come: the morning is gone forth; the rod has blossomed, pride has budded. 11Violence is risen up into a rod of wickedness: none of them , nor of their multitude, nor of any of theirs: neither wailing for them. 12The time is come, the day draweth near: let not the buyer rejoice, nor the seller mourn: for wrath upon all the multitude thereof. 13For the seller shall not return to that which is sold, although they were yet alive: for the vision touching the whole multitude thereof, shall not return; neither shall any strengthen himself in the iniquity of his life. 14They have blown the trumpet, even to make all ready; but none goeth to the battle: for my wrath upon all the multitude thereof. 15The sword without, and the pestilence and the famine within: he that in the field shall die with the sword; and he that in the city, famine and pestilence shall devour him. 16But they that escape of them shall escape, and shall be on the mountains like doves of the valleys, all of them mourning, every one for his iniquity. 17All hands shall be feeble, and all knees shall be weak water. 18They shall also gird with sackcloth, and horror shall cover them; and shame upon all faces, and baldness upon all their heads. 19They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be removed: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the Yahuah: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels: because it is the stumblingblock of their iniquity. 20As for the beauty of his ornament, he set it in majesty: but they made the images of their abominations of their detestable things therein: therefore have I set it far from them. 21And I will give it into the hands of the strangers for a prey, and to the wicked of the earth for a spoil; and they shall pollute it. 22My face will I turn also from them, and they shall pollute my secret : for the robbers shall enter into it, and defile it. 23Make a chain: for the land is full of bloody crimes, and the city is full of violence. 24therefore I will bring the worst of the heathen, and they shall possess their houses: I will also make the pomp of the strong to cease; and their holy places shall be defiled. 25Destruction cometh; and they shall seek peace, and none. 26Mischief shall come upon mischief, and rumour shall be upon rumour; then shall they seek a vision of the prophet; but the law shall perish from the priest, and counsel from the ancients. 27The king shall mourn, and the prince shall be clothed with desolation, and the hands of the people of the land shall be troubled: I will do unto them after their way, and according to their deserts will I judge them; and they shall know that I the Yahuah.
