Bible. Ezekiel
26:021:026 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Remove the diadem, and take off the
crown: this shall not be the same: exalt him that is low, and
abase him that is high.
26:021:027 I will overturn, overturn, overturn, it: and it shall be no
more, until he come whose right it is; and I will give it him.
26:021:028 And thou, son of man, prophesy and say, Thus saith the Lord
GOD concerning the Ammonites, and concerning their reproach;
even say thou, The sword, the sword is drawn: for the
slaughter it is furbished, to consume because of the
glittering:
26:021:029 Whiles they see vanity unto thee, whiles they divine a lie
unto thee, to bring thee upon the necks of them that are
slain, of the wicked, whose day is come, when their iniquity
shall have an end.
26:021:030 Shall I cause it to return into his sheath? I will judge thee
in the place where thou wast created, in the land of thy
nativity.
26:021:031 And I will pour out mine indignation upon thee, I will blow
against thee in the fire of my wrath, and deliver thee into
the hand of brutish men, and skilful to destroy.
26:021:032 Thou shalt be for fuel to the fire; thy blood shall be in the
midst of the land; thou shalt be no more remembered: for I the
LORD have spoken it.
26:022:001 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
26:022:002 Now, thou son of man, wilt thou judge, wilt thou judge the
bloody city? yea, thou shalt shew her all her abominations.
26:022:003 Then say thou, Thus saith the Lord GOD, The city sheddeth
blood in the midst of it, that her time may come, and maketh
idols against herself to defile herself.
26:022:004 Thou art become guilty in thy blood that thou hast shed; and
hast defiled thyself in thine idols which thou hast made; and
thou hast caused thy days to draw near, and art come even unto
thy years: therefore have I made thee a reproach unto the
heathen, and a mocking to all countries.
26:022:005 Those that be near, and those that be far from thee, shall
mock thee, which art infamous and much vexed.
26:022:006 Behold, the princes of Israel, every one were in thee to their
power to shed blood.
26:022:007 In thee have they set light by father and mother: in the midst
of thee have they dealt by oppression with the stranger: in
thee have they vexed the fatherless and the widow.
26:022:008 Thou hast despised mine holy things, and hast profaned my
sabbaths.
26:022:009 In thee are men that carry tales to shed blood: and in thee
they eat upon the mountains: in the midst of thee they commit
lewdness.
26:022:010 In thee have they discovered their fathers' nakedness: in thee
have they humbled her that was set apart for pollution.
