# Chapter 24
|
|
1. Again, in the ninth year, in the tenth month, on the tenth day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
|
|
2. "Son of man, write down the name of the day, this very day--the king of Babylon started his siege against Jerusalem this very day.
|
|
3. And utter a parable to the rebellious house, and say to them, 'Thus says the Lord God:
|
|
"Put on a pot, set it on,
|
|
And also pour water into it.
|
|
|
|
4. Gather pieces of meat in it,
|
|
Every good piece,
|
|
The thigh and the shoulder.
|
|
Fill it with choice cuts;
|
|
|
|
5. Take the choice of the flock.
|
|
Also pile fuel bones under it,
|
|
Make it boil well,
|
|
And let the cuts simmer in it."
|
|
|
|
6. 'Therefore thus says the Lord God:
|
|
"Woe to the bloody city,
|
|
To the pot whose scum is in it,
|
|
And whose scum is not gone from it!
|
|
Bring it out piece by piece,
|
|
On which no lot has fallen.
|
|
|
|
7. For her blood is in her midst;
|
|
She set it on top of a rock;
|
|
She did not pour it on the ground,
|
|
To cover it with dust.
|
|
|
|
8. That it may raise up fury and take vengeance,
|
|
I have set her blood on top of a rock,
|
|
That it may not be covered."
|
|
|
|
9. 'Therefore thus says the Lord God:
|
|
"Woe to the bloody city!
|
|
I too will make the pyre great.
|
|
|
|
10. Heap on the wood,
|
|
Kindle the fire;
|
|
Cook the meat well,
|
|
Mix in the spices,
|
|
And let the cuts be burned up.
|
|
|
|
11. "Then set the pot empty on the coals,
|
|
That it may become hot and its bronze may burn,
|
|
That its filthiness may be melted in it,
|
|
That its scum may be consumed.
|
|
|
|
12. She has grown weary with lies,
|
|
And her great scum has not gone from her.
|
|
Let her scum be in the fire!
|
|
|
|
13. In your filthiness is lewdness.
|
|
Because I have cleansed you, and you were not cleansed,
|
|
You will not be cleansed of your filthiness anymore,
|
|
Till I have caused My fury to rest upon you.
|
|
|
|
14. I, the Lord, have spoken it;
|
|
It shall come to pass, and I will do it;
|
|
I will not hold back,
|
|
Nor will I spare,
|
|
Nor will I relent;
|
|
According to your ways
|
|
And according to your deeds
|
|
They will judge you,"
|
|
Says the Lord God.' "The Prophet's Wife Dies
|
|
|
|
15. Also the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
|
|
16. "Son of man, behold, I take away from you the desire of your eyes with one stroke; yet you shall neither mourn nor weep, nor shall your tears run down.
|
|
17. Sigh in silence, make no mourning for the dead; bind your turban on your head, and put your sandals on your feet; do not cover your lips, and do not eat man's bread of sorrow."
|
|
|
|
18. So I spoke to the people in the morning, and at evening my wife died; and the next morning I did as I was commanded.
|
|
|
|
19. And the people said to me, "Will you not tell us what these things signify to us, that you behave so?"
|
|
|
|
20. Then I answered them, "The word of the Lord came to me, saying,
|
|
21. 'Speak to the house of Israel, "Thus says the Lord God: 'Behold, I will profane My sanctuary, your arrogant boast, the desire of your eyes, the delight of your soul; and your sons and daughters whom you left behind shall fall by the sword.
|
|
22. And you shall do as I have done; you shall not cover your lips nor eat man's bread of sorrow.
|
|
23. Your turbans shall be on your heads and your sandals on your feet; you shall neither mourn nor weep, but you shall pine away in your iniquities and mourn with one another.
|
|
24. Thus Ezekiel is a sign to you; according to all that he has done you shall do; and when this comes, you shall know that I am the Lord God.' "
|
|
|
|
25. 'And you, son of man--will it not be in the day when I take from them their stronghold, their joy and their glory, the desire of their eyes, and that on which they set their minds, their sons and their daughters:
|
|
26. that on that day one who escapes will come to you to let you hear it with your ears?
|
|
27. On that day your mouth will be opened to him who has escaped; you shall speak and no longer be mute. Thus you will be a sign to them, and they shall know that I am the Lord.' "
