And it came to pass in the seventh year, in the fifth [month], the tenth [day] of the month, that certain of the elders of Israel came to inquire of Jehovah, and sat before me. |

20:1 ¶
And it came to pass°
in the seventh°
year,°
in the fifth°
[month], the tenth°
[day] of the month,°
[that] certain°°
of the elders°°
of Israel°
came°°
to enquire°°°
of the LORD,°
and sat°°
before°
me. |
20:2
And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying, |
|
20:2
Then came°
the word°
of the LORD°
unto°
me, saying,°° |
20:3
Son of man, speak unto the elders of Israel, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Is it to inquire of me that ye are come? As I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, I will not be inquired of by you. |
|
20:3
Son°
of man,°
speak°°°
unto the elders°
of Israel,°
and say°°
unto°
them, Thus°
saith°°
the Lord°
GOD;°
Are ye°
come°°
to enquire°°
of me? [As] I°
live,°
saith°°
the Lord°
GOD,°
I will not°
be enquired°°
of by you. |
20:4
Wilt thou judge them, son of man, wilt thou judge them? Cause them to know the abominations of their fathers; |
|
20:4
Wilt thou judge°°
them, son°
of man,°
wilt thou judge°°
[them]? cause them to know°°°
the abominations°
of their fathers:° |
20:5 ¶
and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: In the day when I chose Israel, and sware unto the seed of the house of Jacob, and made myself known unto them in the land of Egypt, when I sware unto them, saying, I am Jehovah your God; |
|
20:5 ¶
And say°°
unto°
them, Thus°
saith°°
the Lord°
GOD;°
In the day°
when I chose°°
Israel,°
and lifted up°°
mine hand°
unto the seed°
of the house°
of Jacob,°
and made myself known°°
unto them in the land°
of Egypt,°
when I lifted°°
up°
mine hand°
unto them, saying,°°
I°
[am] the LORD°
your God;° |
20:6
in that day I sware unto them, to bring them forth out of the land of Egypt into a land that I had searched out for them, flowing with milk and honey, which is the glory of all lands. |
|
20:6
In the day°
[that] I lifted up°°
mine hand°
unto them, to bring them forth°°
of the land°°
of Egypt°
into°
a land°
that°
I had espied°°
for them, flowing°°
with milk°
and honey,°
which°
[is] the glory°
of all°
lands:° |
20:7
And I said unto them, Cast ye away every man the abominations of his eyes, and defile not yourselves with the idols of Egypt; I am Jehovah your God. |
|
20:7
Then said°°
I unto°
them, Cast ye away°°
every man°
the abominations°
of his eyes,°
and defile°°
not yourselves°°
with the idols°
of Egypt:°
I°
[am] the LORD°
your God.° |
20:8
But they rebelled against me, and would not hearken unto me; they did not every man cast away the abominations of their eyes, neither did they forsake the idols of Egypt. Then I said I would pour out my wrath upon them, to accomplish my anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt. |
|
20:8
But they rebelled°°
against me, and would°°
not°
hearken°°
unto°
me: they did not°
every man°
cast away°°°
the abominations°
of their eyes,°
neither°
did they forsake°°
the idols°
of Egypt:°
then I said,°°
I will pour out°°
my fury°
upon°
them, to accomplish°°
my anger°
against them in the midst°
of the land°
of Egypt.° |
20:9
But I wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, among which they were, in whose sight I made myself known unto them, in bringing them forth out of the land of Egypt. |
|
20:9
But I wrought°°
for my name's°
sake,°°
that it should not°
be polluted°°
before°
the heathen,°
among°
whom°
they°
[were], in whose°
sight°
I made myself known°°
unto°
them, in bringing them forth°°
out of the land°°
of Egypt.° |
20:10 ¶
So I caused them to go forth out of the land of Egypt, and brought them into the wilderness. |
|
20:10 ¶
Wherefore I caused them to go°
forth°°
out of the land°°
of Egypt,°
and brought°°
them into°
the wilderness.° |
20:11
And I gave them my statutes, and showed them mine ordinances, which if a man do, he shall live in them. |
|
20:11
And I gave°°
them°
my statutes,°
and shewed°°
them my judgments,°
which°
[if] a man°
do,°°°
he shall even live°°°
in them. |
20:12
Moreover also I gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, that they might know that I am Jehovah that sanctifieth them. |
|
20:12
Moreover also°
I gave°°
them°
my sabbaths,°
to be°
a sign°
between°
me and them, that they might know°°
that°
I°
[am] the LORD°
that sanctify°°
them. |
20:13
But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness: they walked not in my statutes, and they rejected mine ordinances, which if a man keep, he shall live in them; and my sabbaths they greatly profaned. Then I said I would pour out my wrath upon them in the wilderness, to consume them. |
|
20:13
But the house°
of Israel°
rebelled°°
against me in the wilderness:°
they walked°°
not°
in my statutes,°
and they despised°°
my judgments,°
which°
[if] a man°
do,°°°
he shall even live°°°
in them; and my sabbaths°
they greatly°
polluted:°°
then I said,°°
I would pour out°°
my fury°
upon°
them in the wilderness,°
to consume°°
them. |
20:14
But I wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, in whose sight I brought them out. |
|
20:14
But I wrought°°
for my name's°
sake,°°
that it should not°
be polluted°°
before°
the heathen,°
in whose°
sight°
I brought them out.°° |
20:15
Moreover also I sware unto them in the wilderness, that I would not bring them into the land which I had given them, flowing with milk and honey, which is the glory of all lands; |
|
20:15
Yet also°
I°
lifted up°°
my hand°
unto them in the wilderness,°
that I would not°
bring°°
them into°
the land°
which°
I had given°°
[them], flowing°°
with milk°
and honey,°
which°
[is] the glory°
of all°
lands;° |
20:16
because they rejected mine ordinances, and walked not in my statutes, and profaned my sabbaths: for their heart went after their idols. |
|
20:16
Because°
they despised°°
my judgments,°
and walked°°
not°
in my statutes,°
but polluted°°
my sabbaths:°
for°
their heart°
went°°
after°
their idols.° |
20:17
Nevertheless mine eye spared them, and I destroyed them not, neither did I make a full end of them in the wilderness. |
|
20:17
Nevertheless mine eye°
spared°°°
them from destroying°°°
them, neither°
did I make°°
an end°
of them in the wilderness.° |
20:18
And I said unto their children in the wilderness, Walk ye not in the statutes of your fathers, neither observe their ordinances, nor defile yourselves with their idols. |
|
20:18
But I said°°
unto°
their children°
in the wilderness,°
Walk°°°
ye not°
in the statutes°
of your fathers,°
neither°
observe°°
their judgments,°
nor°
defile°°
yourselves°
with their idols:° |
20:19
I am Jehovah your God: walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do them; |
|
20:19
I°
[am] the LORD°
your God;°
walk°°°
in my statutes,°
and keep°°
my judgments,°
and do°°
them; |
20:20
and hallow my sabbaths; and they shall be a sign between me and you, that ye may know that I am Jehovah your God. |
|
20:20
And hallow°°
my sabbaths;°
and they shall be°
a sign°
between°
me and you, that ye may know°°
that°
I°
[am] the LORD°
your God.° |
20:21
But the children rebelled against me; they walked not in my statutes, neither kept mine ordinances to do them, which if a man do, he shall live in them; they profaned my sabbaths. Then I said I would pour out my wrath upon them, to accomplish my anger against them in the wilderness. |
|
20:21
Notwithstanding the children°
rebelled°°
against me: they walked°°
not°
in my statutes,°
neither°
kept°°
my judgments°
to do°°
them, which°
[if] a man°
do,°°°
he shall even live°°°
in them; they polluted°°°
my sabbaths:°
then I said,°°
I would pour out°°
my fury°
upon°
them, to accomplish°°
my anger°
against them in the wilderness.° |
20:22
Nevertheless I withdrew my hand, and wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, in whose sight I brought them forth. |
|
20:22
Nevertheless I withdrew°°°
mine hand,°
and wrought°°
for my name's°
sake,°°
that it should not°
be polluted°°
in the sight°
of the heathen,°
in whose°
sight°
I brought them forth.°°° |
20:23
Moreover I sware unto them in the wilderness, that I would scatter them among the nations, and disperse them through the countries; |
|
20:23
I°
lifted up°°°
mine hand°
unto them also°
in the wilderness,°
that I would scatter°°
them among the heathen,°
and disperse°°
them through the countries;° |
20:24
because they had not executed mine ordinances, but had rejected my statutes, and had profaned my sabbaths, and their eyes were after their fathers' idols. |
|
20:24
Because°
they had not°
executed°°
my judgments,°
but had despised°°
my statutes,°
and had polluted°°
my sabbaths,°
and their eyes°
were°
after°
their fathers'°
idols.° |
20:25
Moreover also I gave them statutes that were not good, and ordinances wherein they should not live; |
|
20:25
Wherefore I°
gave°°
them also°
statutes°
[that were] not°
good,°
and judgments°
whereby they should not°
live;°° |
20:26
and I polluted them in their own gifts, in that they caused to pass through [the fire] all that openeth the womb, that I might make them desolate, to the end that they might know that I am Jehovah. |
|
20:26
And I polluted°°
them in their own gifts,°
in that they caused to pass through°°
[the fire] all°
that openeth°
the womb,°
that°
I might make them desolate,°°
to the end°
that°
they might know°°
that°
I°
[am] the LORD.° |
20:27 ¶
Therefore, son of man, speak unto the house of Israel, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: In this moreover have your fathers blasphemed me, in that they have committed a trespass against me. |
|
20:27 ¶
Therefore,°
son°
of man,°
speak°°
unto°
the house°
of Israel,°
and say°°
unto°
them, Thus°
saith°°
the Lord°
GOD;°
Yet°
in this°
your fathers°
have blasphemed°°
me, in that they have committed°°
a trespass°
against me. |
20:28
For when I had brought them into the land, which I sware to give unto them, then they saw every high hill, and every thick tree, and they offered there their sacrifices, and there they presented the provocation of their offering; there also they made their sweet savor, and they poured out there their drink-offerings. |
|
20:28
[For] when I had brought°°
them into°
the land,°
[for] the which°
I lifted up°°°
mine hand°
to give°°
it to them, then they saw°°
every°
high°°
hill,°
and all°
the thick°
trees,°
and they offered°°
there°°
their sacrifices,°
and there°
they presented°°
the provocation°
of their offering:°
there°
also they made°°
their sweet°
savour,°
and poured out°°
there°°
their drink offerings.° |
20:29
Then I said unto them, What meaneth the high place whereunto ye go? So the name thereof is called Bamah unto this day. |
|
20:29
Then I said°°
unto°
them, What°
[is] the high place°
whereunto°°
ye°
go?°°
And the name°
thereof is called°°
Bamah°
unto°
this°
day.° |
20:30
Wherefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Do ye pollute yourselves after the manner of your fathers? and play ye the harlot after their abominations? |
|
20:30
Wherefore°
say°°
unto°
the house°
of Israel,°
Thus°
saith°°
the Lord°
GOD;°
Are ye°
polluted°°
after the manner°
of your fathers?°
and commit ye whoredom°°°
after°
their abominations?° |
20:31
and when ye offer your gifts, when ye make your sons to pass through the fire, do ye pollute yourselves with all your idols unto this day? and shall I be inquired of by you, O house of Israel? As I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, I will not be inquired of by you; |
|
20:31
For when ye offer°°
your gifts,°
when ye make your sons°
to pass°
through°°
the fire,°
ye°
pollute°°
yourselves°
with all°
your idols,°
even unto°
this day:°
and shall I°
be enquired°°
of°
by you, O house°
of Israel?°
[As] I°
live,°
saith°°
the Lord°
GOD,°
I will not°
be enquired°°
of°
by you. |
20:32
and that which cometh into your mind shall not be at all, in that ye say, We will be as the nations, as the families of the countries, to serve wood and stone. |
|
20:32
And that which cometh°°
into°
your mind°
shall not°
be at all,°
that°
ye°
say,°°
We will be°°
as the heathen,°
as the families°
of the countries,°
to serve°°
wood°
and stone.° |
20:33 ¶
As I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, surely with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with wrath poured out, will I be king over you: |
|
20:33 ¶
[As] I°
live,°
saith°°
the Lord°
GOD,°
surely°°
with a mighty°
hand,°
and with a stretched out°°
arm,°
and with fury°
poured out,°°
will I rule°°
over°
you: |
20:34
and I will bring you out from the peoples, and will gather you out of the countries wherein ye are scattered, with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with wrath poured out; |
|
20:34
And I will bring you out°°°
from°
the people,°
and will gather°°
you out of°
the countries°
wherein°
ye are scattered,°°
with a mighty°
hand,°
and with a stretched out°°
arm,°
and with fury°
poured out.°° |
20:35
and I will bring you into the wilderness of the peoples, and there will I enter into judgment with you face to face. |
|
20:35
And I will bring°°
you into°
the wilderness°
of the people,°
and there°
will I plead°°
with°
you face°
to°
face.° |
20:36
Like as I entered into judgment with your fathers in the wilderness of the land of Egypt, so will I enter into judgment with you, saith the Lord Jehovah. |
|
20:36
Like as°
I pleaded°°
with°
your fathers°
in the wilderness°
of the land°
of Egypt,°
so°
will I plead°°
with°
you, saith°°
the Lord°
GOD.° |
20:37
And I will cause you to pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant; |
|
20:37
And I will cause you to pass°°
under°
the rod,°
and I will bring°°
you into the bond°
of the covenant:° |
20:38
and I will purge out from among you the rebels, and them that transgress against me; I will bring them forth out of the land where they sojourn, but they shall not enter into the land of Israel: and ye shall know that I am Jehovah. |
|
20:38
And I will purge out°°
from°
among you the rebels,°°
and them that transgress°°
against me: I will bring them forth°°°
out of the country°°
where they sojourn,°
and they shall not°
enter°°
into°
the land°
of Israel:°
and ye shall know°°
that°
I°
[am] the LORD.° |
20:39
As for you, O house of Israel, thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Go ye, serve every one his idols, and hereafter also, if ye will not hearken unto me; but my holy name shall ye no more profane with your gifts, and with your idols. |
|
20:39
As for you,°
O house°
of Israel,°
thus°
saith°°
the Lord°
GOD;°
Go°°°
ye, serve°°
ye every one°
his idols,°
and hereafter°
[also], if°
ye will not°
hearken°°
unto°
me: but pollute°°
ye my holy°
name°
no°
more°
with your gifts,°
and with your idols.° |
20:40
For in my holy mountain, in the mountain of the height of Israel, saith the Lord Jehovah, there shall all the house of Israel, all of them, serve me in the land: there will I accept them, and there will I require your offerings, and the first-fruits of your oblations, with all your holy things. |
|
20:40
For°
in mine holy°
mountain,°
in the mountain°
of the height°
of Israel,°
saith°°
the Lord°
GOD,°
there°
shall all°
the house°
of Israel,°
all°
of them in the land,°
serve°°
me: there°
will I accept°°
them, and there°
will I require°°°
your offerings,°
and the firstfruits°
of your oblations,°
with all°
your holy things.° |
20:41
As a sweet savor will I accept you, when I bring you out from the peoples, and gather you out of the countries wherein ye have been scattered; and I will be sanctified in you in the sight of the nations. |
|
20:41
I will accept°°
you with your sweet°
savour,°
when I bring you out°°°
from°
the people,°
and gather°°
you out of°
the countries°
wherein°
ye have been scattered;°°
and I will be sanctified°°
in you before°
the heathen.° |
20:42
And ye shall know that I am Jehovah, when I shall bring you into the land of Israel, into the country which I sware to give unto your fathers. |
|
20:42
And ye shall know°°
that°
I°
[am] the LORD,°
when I shall bring°°
you into°
the land°
of Israel,°
into°
the country°
[for] the which°
I lifted up°°°
mine hand°
to give°°
it to your fathers.° |
20:43
And there shall ye remember your ways, and all your doings, wherein ye have polluted yourselves; and ye shall loathe yourselves in your own sight for all your evils that ye have committed. |
|
20:43
And there°
shall ye remember°°°
your ways,°
and all°
your doings,°
wherein°
ye have been defiled;°°
and ye shall lothe°°
yourselves°
in your own sight°
for all°
your evils°
that°
ye have committed.°° |
20:44
And ye shall know that I am Jehovah, when I have dealt with you for my name's sake, not according to your evil ways, nor according to your corrupt doings, O ye house of Israel, saith the Lord Jehovah. |
|
20:44
And ye shall know°°
that°
I°
[am] the LORD,°
when I have wrought°°
with°
you for my name's°

doings,°
O ye house°
of Israel,°
saith°°
the Lord°
GOD.° |
20:45 ¶
And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying, |
|
20:45 ¶
Moreover the word°
of the LORD°
came°
unto°
me, saying,°° |
20:46
Son of man, set thy face toward the south, and drop [thy word] toward the south, and prophesy against the forest of the field in the South; |
|
20:46
Son°
of man,°
set°°
thy face°
toward°
the south,°
and drop°°
[thy word] toward°
the south,°
and prophesy°°
against°
the forest°
of the south°
field;° |
20:47
and say to the forest of the South, Hear the word of Jehovah: Thus saith the Lord Jehovah, Behold, I will kindle a fire in thee, and it shall devour every green tree in thee, and every dry tree: the flaming flame shall not be quenched, and all faces from the south to the north shall be burnt thereby. |
|
20:47
And say°°
to the forest°
of the south,°
Hear°°
the word°
of the LORD;°
Thus°
saith°°
the Lord°
GOD;°
Behold,°
I will kindle°°
a fire°
in thee, and it shall devour°°
every°

the flaming°
flame°

therein. |
20:48
And all flesh shall see that I, Jehovah, have kindled it; it shall not be quenched. |
|
20:48
And all°
flesh°
shall see°°
that°
I°
the LORD°
have kindled°°
it: it shall not°

20:49
Then said I, Ah Lord Jehovah! they say of me, Is he not a speaker of parables? |
|
20:49
Then said°°
I, Ah°
Lord°
GOD!°
they°
say°°
of me, Doth he°
not°

parables?° |
