Bible. Ezekiel
26:022:011 And one hath committed abomination with his neighbour's wife;
and another hath lewdly defiled his daughter in law; and
another in thee hath humbled his sister, his father's
daughter.
26:022:012 In thee have they taken gifts to shed blood; thou hast taken
usury and increase, and thou hast greedily gained of thy
neighbours by extortion, and hast forgotten me, saith the Lord
GOD.
26:022:013 Behold, therefore I have smitten mine hand at thy dishonest
gain which thou hast made, and at thy blood which hath been in
the midst of thee.
26:022:014 Can thine heart endure, or can thine hands be strong, in the
days that I shall deal with thee? I the LORD have spoken it,
and will do it.
26:022:015 And I will scatter thee among the heathen, and disperse thee
in the countries, and will consume thy filthiness out of thee.
26:022:016 And thou shalt take thine inheritance in thyself in the sight
of the heathen, and thou shalt know that I am the LORD.
26:022:017 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
26:022:018 Son of man, the house of Israel is to me become dross: all
they are brass, and tin, and iron, and lead, in the midst of
the furnace; they are even the dross of silver.
26:022:019 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because ye are all become
dross, behold, therefore I will gather you into the midst of
Jerusalem.
26:022:020 As they gather silver, and brass, and iron, and lead, and tin,
into the midst of the furnace, to blow the fire upon it, to
melt it; so will I gather you in mine anger and in my fury,
and I will leave you there, and melt you.
26:022:021 Yea, I will gather you, and blow upon you in the fire of my
wrath, and ye shall be melted in the midst therof.
26:022:022 As silver is melted in the midst of the furnace, so shall ye
be melted in the midst thereof; and ye shall know that I the
LORD have poured out my fury upon you.
26:022:023 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
26:022:024 Son of man, say unto her, Thou art the land that is not
cleansed, nor rained upon in the day of indignation.
26:022:025 There is a conspiracy of her prophets in the midst thereof,
like a roaring lion ravening the prey; they have devoured
souls; they have taken the treasure and precious things; they
have made her many widows in the midst thereof.
26:022:026 Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy
things: they have put no difference between the holy and
profane, neither have they shewed difference between the
unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my
sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.
