which occurs 1,035 times in 440 verses in 'Eze'
in the LXX Greek.
Page 1 / 9 (Eze 2:1–Eze 6:7)
He said to me, “Son of man, I am sending you to the Israelites, to[fn] the rebellious pagans who have rebelled against me. The Israelites and their ancestors have transgressed against me to this day.
“Whether they listen or refuse to listen — for they are a rebellious house — they will know that a prophet has been among them.
“But you, son of man, do not be afraid of them and do not be afraid of their words, even though briers and thorns are beside you and you live among scorpions. Don’t be afraid of their words or discouraged by the look on their faces, for they are a rebellious house.
“And you, son of man, listen to what I tell you: Do not be rebellious like that rebellious house. Open your mouth and eat what I am giving you.”
“Son of man,” he said to me, “feed your stomach and fill your belly with this scroll I am giving you.” So I ate it, and it was as sweet as honey in my mouth.
“For you are not being sent to a people of unintelligible speech or a difficult language but to the house of Israel —
“not to the many peoples of unintelligible speech or a difficult language, whose words you cannot understand. No doubt, if I sent you to them, they would listen to you.
“But the house of Israel will not want to listen to you because they do not want to listen to me. For the whole house of Israel is hardheaded and hardhearted.
“Look, I have made your face as hard as their faces and your forehead as hard as their foreheads.
Next he said to me, “Son of man, listen carefully to all my words that I speak to you and take them to heart.
“Go to your people, the exiles, and speak to them. Tell them, ‘This is what the Lord GOD says,’ whether they listen or refuse to listen.”
“Son of man, I have made you a watchman over the house of Israel. When you hear a word from my mouth, give them a warning from me.
“If I say to the wicked person, ‘You will surely die,’ but you do not warn him — you don’t speak out to warn him about his wicked way in order to save his life — that wicked person will die for his iniquity. Yet I will hold you responsible for his blood.
“But if you warn a wicked person and he does not turn from his wickedness or his wicked way, he will die for his iniquity, but you will have rescued yourself.
“Now if a righteous person turns from his righteousness and acts unjustly, and I put a stumbling block in front of him, he will die. If you did not warn him, he will die because of his sin, and the righteous acts he did will not be remembered. Yet I will hold you responsible for his blood.
“But if you warn the righteous person that he should not sin, and he does not sin, he will indeed live because he listened to your warning, and you will have rescued yourself.”
The hand of the LORD was on me there, and he said to me, “Get up, go out to the plain, and I will speak with you there.”
The Spirit entered me and set me on my feet. He spoke with me and said, “Go, shut yourself inside your house.
“As for you, son of man, they will put ropes on you and bind you with them so you cannot go out among them.
“I will make your tongue stick to the roof of your mouth, and you will be mute and unable to be a mediator for[fn] them, for they are a rebellious house.
“But when I speak with you, I will open your mouth, and you will say to them, ‘This is what the Lord GOD says.’ Let the one who listens, listen, and let the one who refuses, refuse — for they are a rebellious house.
“Now you, son of man, take a brick, set it in front of you, and draw the city of Jerusalem on it.
“Take an iron plate and set it up as an iron wall between yourself and the city. Face it so that it is under siege, and besiege it. This will be a sign for the house of Israel.
“Then lie down on your left side and place the iniquity[fn] of the house of Israel on it. You will bear their iniquity for the number of days you lie on your side.
“For I have assigned you the years of their iniquity according to the number of days you lie down, 390 days; so you will bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.
“When you have completed these days, lie down again, but on your right side, and bear the iniquity of the house of Judah. I have assigned you forty days, a day for each year.
“Be aware that I will put cords on you so you cannot turn from side to side until you have finished the days of your siege.
“Also take wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet, and spelt. Put them in a single container and make them into bread for yourself. You are to eat it during the number of days you lie on your side, 390 days.
He replied to me, “Look, I will let you use cow dung instead of human excrement, and you can make your bread over that.”
“Now you, son of man, take a sharp sword, use it as you would a barber’s razor, and shave your head and beard. Then take a set of scales and divide the hair.
“But you are to take a few strands from the hair and secure them in the folds of your robe.
“Therefore, this is what the Lord GOD says: Because you have been more insubordinate than the nations around you — you have not walked in my statutes or kept my ordinances; you have not even kept the ordinances of the nations around you —
“therefore, this is what the Lord GOD says: See, I myself am against you, Jerusalem, and I will execute judgments within you in the sight of the nations.
“Because of all your detestable practices, I will do to you what I have never done before and what I will never do again.
“As a result, fathers will eat their sons within Jerusalem,[fn] and sons will eat their fathers. I will execute judgments against you and scatter all your survivors to every direction of the wind.
“Therefore, as I live” — this is the declaration of the Lord GOD — “I will withdraw and show you no pity, because you have defiled my sanctuary with all your abhorrent acts and detestable practices. Yes, I will not spare you.
“A third of your people will die by plague and be consumed by famine within you; a third will fall by the sword all around you; and I will scatter a third to every direction of the wind, and I will draw a sword to chase after them.
“I will make you a ruin and a disgrace among the nations around you, in the sight of everyone who passes by.
“So you[fn] will be a disgrace and a taunt, a warning and a horror, to the nations around you when I execute judgments against you in anger, wrath, and furious rebukes. I, the LORD, have spoken.
“When I shoot deadly arrows of famine at them, arrows for destruction that I will send to destroy you, inhabitants of Jerusalem, I will intensify the famine against you and cut off your supply of bread.
“I will send famine and dangerous animals against you. They will leave you childless. Plague and bloodshed will sweep through you, and I will bring a sword against you. I, the LORD, have spoken.”
“You are to say: Mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord GOD! This is what the Lord GOD says to the mountains and the hills, to the ravines and the valleys: I am about to bring a sword against you, and I will destroy your high places.
“Your altars will be desolated and your shrines[fn] smashed. I will throw down your slain in front of your idols.
“I will lay the corpses of the Israelites in front of their idols and scatter your bones around your altars.
“Wherever you live the cities will be in ruins and the high places will be desolate, so that your altars will lie in ruins and be desecrated,[fn] your idols smashed and obliterated, your shrines cut down, and what you have made wiped out.
