1 and to call: call out in/on/with ear: to ears my voice great: large to/for to say to present: come punishment [the] city and man: anyone article/utensil destruction his in/on/with hand his

Then I heard Yahweh call out loudly, “[You men who are going to punish this city, ] bring here the guards of the city, each carrying a weapon.”

2 and behold six human to come (in): come from way: direction gate [the] high which to turn north [to] and man: anyone article/utensil shattering his in/on/with hand his and man one in/on/with midst their to clothe linen and pot [the] secretary in/on/with loin his and to come (in): come and to stand: stand beside altar [the] bronze

Then I saw six men coming from the north gate of the temple area. Each one was carrying a weapon. With them was a man wearing a white linen robe. [carried] at his side a case containing things to write with. They [all] came into the temple and stood beside the bronze altar.

3 and glory God Israel to ascend: rise from upon [the] cherub which to be upon him to(wards) threshold [the] house: home and to call: call to to(wards) [the] man [the] to clothe [the] linen which pot [the] secretary in/on/with loin his

[Then] the (glory/dazzling light) [that symbolized the presence] of the God of Israel rose up from above the four winged creatures and moved to the entrance of the temple. Then Yahweh called to the man wearing the linen robe,

4 and to say LORD (to(wards) him *Q(k)*) to pass in/on/with midst [the] city in/on/with midst Jerusalem and to mark mark upon forehead [the] human [the] to sigh and [the] to groan upon all [the] abomination [the] to make in/on/with midst her

and said to him, “Go throughout Jerusalem and put a mark on the foreheads of those who are very sad [DOU] because of the detestable things that are being done inside the city.”

5 and to/for these to say in/on/with ear: hearing my to pass in/on/with city after him and to smite (not *Q(K)*) to pity (eye your *Q(K)*) and not to spare

While I was listening, he said to the other six men, “Follow the man wearing the white robe, and kill people. Do not pity them or act mercifully toward them.

6 old youth and virgin and child and woman to kill to/for destruction and upon all man which upon him [the] mark not to approach: approach and from sanctuary my to profane/begin: begin and to profane/begin: begin in/on/with human [the] old: elder which to/for face: before [the] house: home

Slaughter old men, young men and women, older women and children, but do not harm any of those who have that mark on their forehead. Start at my temple.” So they began by killing the elders who were [worshiping idols] in front of the temple.

7 and to say to(wards) them to defile [obj] [the] house: home and to fill [obj] [the] court slain: killed to come out: come and to come out: come and to smite in/on/with city

Then Yahweh said to those men, “Pollute the temple by filling the [with the corpses of those whom] you kill! Start now!” So they went out and starting killing people throughout the city.

8 and to be like/as to smite they and to remain I and to fall: fall [emph?] upon face my and to cry out and to say alas! Lord YHWH/God to ruin you(m. s.) [obj] all remnant Israel in/on/with to pour: pour you [obj] rage your upon Jerusalem

While they were doing that, I was left alone. I prostrated myself on the ground and cried out, “Yahweh my Lord, are you going to get rid of all the people of Israel and Judah who are still alive, while you are severely punishing [MTY] [the people of] Jerusalem?”

9 and to say to(wards) me iniquity: guilt house: household Israel and Judah great: large in/on/with much much and to fill [the] land: country/planet blood and [the] city to fill perversion for to say to leave: forsake LORD [obj] [the] land: country/planet and nothing LORD to see: see

He replied, “The sins of the people [MTY] of Israel and Judah are extremely great. People are murdered [MTY] everywhere [in this country], and this city is full of [people who act] unjustly. They say, ‘Yahweh has abandoned this country, and he does not [what we are doing].’

10 and also I not to pity eye my and not to spare way: conduct their in/on/with head their to give: give

[So] I will not pity them or act mercifully toward them. I will do to them the evil things that they have done to other people.”

11 and behold [the] man clothing [the] linen which [the] pot in/on/with loin his to return: return word to/for to say to make: do (like/as all which *Q(K)*) to command me

Then the man wearing the linen robe returned, saying, “I have done what you commanded me to do.”
