Ezekiel 11

1 And it lifted up me a spirit and it brought me to [the] gate of [the] house of Yahweh eastern which faces east-ward and there! [were] at [the] entrance of the gate twenty and five man and I saw in midst of them Jaazaniah [the] son of Azzur and Pelatiah [the] son of Benaiah [the] leaders of the people.

2 And he said to me O son of humankind these [are] the people who plan wickedness and who counsel counsel of evil in the city this.

3 Who say not [is] in [the] near [future] to build houses it [is] the pot and we [are] the meat.

4 Therefore prophesy on them prophesy O son of humankind.

5 And it fell on me [the] spirit of Yahweh and he said to me say thus he says Yahweh thus you have said O house of Israel and [the] thoughts of spirit your I I know it.

6 You have multiplied slain [ones] your in the city this and you have filled streets its [the] slain.

7 Therefore thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh slain [ones] your which you have put in [the] midst of it they [are] the meat and it [is] the pot and you he will bring out from [the] midst of it.

8 A sword you have feared and a sword I will bring on you [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.

9 And I will bring out you from [the] midst of it and I will give you in [the] hand of strangers and I will bring about on you judgments.

10 By the sword you will fall on [the] territory of Israel I will judge you and you will know that I [am] Yahweh.

11 It not it will become for you a pot and you you will become in [the] midst of it meat to [the] border of Israel I will judge you.

12 And you will know that I [am] Yahweh whom in statutes my not you have walked and judgments my not you have done and according to [the] judgments of the nations which [are] around you you have done.

13 And it was when prophesied I and Pelatiah [the] son of Benaiah he died and I fell on face my and I cried out a voice great and I said alas! O Lord Yahweh complete destruction [are] you? making with [the] remnant of Israel.

14 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.

15 O son of humankind brothers your brothers your [the] people of redemption your and all [the] house of Israel all of it whom they said to them [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem be distant from with Yahweh to us it it has been given the land to a possession.

16 Therefore say thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh that I have removed far away them among the nations and that I have scattered them among the lands and I have become for them a sanctuary a little in the lands where they have gone there.

17 Therefore say thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh and I will gather you from the peoples and I will gather you from the lands which you have been scattered among them and I will give to you [the] land of Israel.

18 And they will come there towards and they will remove all detestable things its and all abominations its from it.

19 And I will give to them a heart one and a spirit new I will put in inner being your and I will remove [the] heart of stone from flesh their and I will give to them a heart of flesh.

20 So that in statutes my they may walk and judgments my they may keep and they will do them and they will become for me a people and I I will become for them God.

21 And to [the] heart of detestable things their and abominations their heart their [is] going conduct their on own head their I will requite [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.

22 And they lifted up the cherubim wings their and the wheels [were] close by them and [the] glory of [the] God of Israel [was] above them from to above.

23 And it went up [the] glory of Yahweh from over [the] middle of the city and it stood still over the mountain which [was] from [the] east of the city.

24 And a spirit it lifted up me and it brought me Chaldea towards to the exile[s] in the vision by [the] spirit of God and it went up from on me the vision which I had seen.

25 And I spoke to the exile[s] all [the] words of Yahweh which he had shown me.
