Ezekiel 5
5
1And youi, Son of man, take youi a sharp knife, take youi a barber’s razor, and cause [it] to pass upon youri head and upon youri beard: then take youi balances to weigh, and divide the [hair].
2Youi shall burn with fire a third part in the midst of the city, when the days of the siege are fulfilled: and youi shall take a third part, [and] strike about it with a knife: and a third part youi shall scatter in the wind; and I will draw out a sword after them.
3Youi shall also take thereof a few in number, and bind them in youri skirts.
4Then take of them again, and cast them into the midst of the fire, and burn them in the fire; [for] thereof shall a fire come forth into all the house of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God].
5Thus says the Lord-Adonai [Greatest Above All Things] GOD-Yehōvih (THE FATHER); This [is] Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace]: I have set it in the midst of the nations and countries [that are] round about her.
6And she has changed my judgments into wickedness more than the nations, and my statutes more than the countries that [are] round about her: for they have refused my judgments and my statutes, they have not walked in them.
7Therefore thus says the Lord-Adonai [Greatest Above All Things] GOD-Yehōvih (THE FATHER); Because you2f multiplied more than the nations that [are] round about you, [and] have not walked in my statutes, neither have kept my judgments, neither have done according to the judgments of the nations that [are] round about you;
8Therefore thus says the Lord-Adonai [Greatest Above All Things] GOD-Yehōvih (THE FATHER); Behold, I, even I, [am] against youi, and will execute judgments in the midst of youri in the sight of the nations.
9And I will do in youi that which I have not done, and whereunto I will not do any more the like, because of all youi abominations.
10Therefore the fathers shall eat the sons in the midst of youi, and the sons shall eat their fathers; and I will execute judgments in youi, and the whole remnant of youi will I scatter into all the winds.
11For what reason, [as] I live, says the Lord-Adonai [Greatest Above All Things] GOD-Yehōvih (THE FATHER); Surely, because youi have defiled my sanctuary with all youri detestable things, and with all youri abominations, therefore will I also diminish [youi]; neither shall my eye spare, neither will I have any pity.
12A third part of youi shall die with the pestilence, and with famine shall they be consumed in the midst of youi: and a third part shall fall by the sword round about youi; and I will scatter a third part into all the winds, and I will draw out a sword after them.
13Thus shall my anger be accomplished, and I will cause my fury to rest upon them, and I will be comforted: and they shall know that I the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) have spoken [it] in my zeal, when I have accomplished my fury in them.
14Moreover I will make youi waste, and a reproach (disgrace; shame) among the nations that [are] round about youi, in the sight of all that pass by.
15So it shall be a reproach (disgrace; shame) and a taunt, an instruction and an astonishment unto the nations that [are] round about youi, when I shall execute judgments in youi in anger and in fury and in furious rebukes. I the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) have spoken [it].
16When I shall send upon them the evil arrows of famine, which shall be for [their] destruction, [and] which I will send to destroy you: and I will increase the famine upon you, and will break your staff of bread:
17So will I send upon you famine and evil beasts, and they shall bereave youi; and pestilence and blood shall pass through youi; and I will bring the sword upon youi. I the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) have spoken [it].
