Eze 7:1

Eze 7:1The word of the LORD came to me:

Eze 7:7

Eze 7:7Doom is coming upon you who live in the land! The time is coming, the day is near. There are sounds of tumult, not shouts of joy, on the mountains.

Eze 7:8

Eze 7:8Soon now I will pour out my rage on you; I will fully vent my anger against you. I will judge you according to your behavior. I will hold you accountable for all your abominable practices.

Eze 7:9

Eze 7:10

Eze 7:10"Look, the day! Look, it is coming! Doom has gone out! The staff has budded, pride has blossomed!

Eze 7:11

Eze 7:11Violence has grown into a staff that supports wickedness. Not one of them will be left - not from their crowd, not from their wealth, not from their prominence.

Eze 7:12

Eze 7:12The time has come; the day has struck! The customer should not rejoice, nor the seller mourn; for divine wrath comes against their whole crowd.

Eze 7:13

Eze 7:13The customer will no longer pay the seller while both parties are alive, for the vision against their whole crowd will not be revoked. Each person, for his iniquity, will fail to preserve his life.

Eze 7:14

Eze 7:14"They have blown the trumpet and everyone is ready, but no one goes to battle, because my anger is against their whole crowd.

Eze 7:15

Eze 7:15The sword is outside; pestilence and famine are inside the house. Whoever is in the open field will die by the sword, and famine and pestilence will consume everyone in the city.

Eze 7:16

Eze 7:16Their survivors will escape to the mountains and become like doves of the valleys; all of them will moan - each one for his iniquity.

Eze 7:17

Eze 7:17All of their hands will hang limp; their knees will be wet with urine.

Eze 7:18

Eze 7:18They will wear sackcloth, terror will cover them; shame will be on all their faces, and all of their heads will be shaved bald.

Eze 7:19

Eze 7:19They will discard their silver in the streets, and their gold will be treated like filth. Their silver and gold will not be able to deliver them on the day of the LORD's fury. They will not satisfy their hunger or fill their stomachs because their wealth was the obstacle leading to their iniquity.

The Temple Profaned

Eze 7:20

Eze 7:20They rendered the beauty of his ornaments into pride, and with it they made their abominable images - their detestable idols. Therefore I will render it filthy to them.

Eze 7:21

Eze 7:21I will give it to foreigners as loot, to the world's wicked ones as plunder, and they will desecrate it.

Eze 7:22

Eze 7:22I will turn my face away from them and they will desecrate my treasured place. Vandals will enter it and desecrate it.

Eze 7:23

Eze 7:23(Make the chain, because the land is full of murder and the city is full of violence.)

Eze 7:24

Eze 7:24I will bring the most wicked of the nations and they will take possession of their houses. I will put an end to the arrogance of the strong, and their sanctuaries will be desecrated.

Eze 7:25

Eze 7:25Terror is coming! They will seek peace, but find none.

Eze 7:26

Eze 7:26Disaster after disaster will come, and one rumor after another. They will seek a vision from a prophet; priestly instruction will disappear, along with counsel from the elders.

Eze 7:27

Eze 7:27The king will mourn and the prince will be clothed with shuddering; the hands of the people of the land will tremble. Based on their behavior I will deal with them, and by their standard of justice I will judge them. Then they will know that I am the LORD!"
