Bible. Ezekiel
26:015:004 Behold, it is cast into the fire for fuel; the fire devoureth
both the ends of it, and the midst of it is burned. Is it meet
for any work?
26:015:005 Behold, when it was whole, it was meet for no work: how much
less shall it be meet yet for any work, when the fire hath
devoured it, and it is burned?
26:015:006 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; As the vine tree among the
trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel,
so will I give the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
26:015:007 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.
26:015:008 And I will make the land desolate, because they have committed
a trespass, saith the Lord GOD.
26:016:001 Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
26:016:002 Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations,
26:016:003 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD unto Jerusalem; Thy birth and
thy nativity is of the land of Canaan; thy father was an
Amorite, and thy mother an Hittite.
26:016:004 And as for thy nativity, in the day thou wast born thy navel
was not cut, neither wast thou washed in water to supple thee;
thou wast not salted at all, nor swaddled at all.
26:016:005 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.
26:016:006 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.
26:016:007 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.
26:016:008 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.
26:016:009 Then washed I thee with water; yea, I throughly washed away
thy blood from thee, and I anointed thee with oil.
26:016:010 I clothed thee also with broidered work, and shod thee with
badgers' skin, and I girded thee about with fine linen, and I
covered thee with silk.
26:016:011 I decked thee also with ornaments, and I put bracelets upon
thy hands, and a chain on thy neck.
26:016:012 And I put a jewel on thy forehead, and earrings in thine ears,
and a beautiful crown upon thine head.
