The Bible In One Year Bible Reading For Day Number - 316 Ezekiel
-- 13{1} And the
word of the LORD came unto me, saying, {2} Son of man, prophesy against
the prophets of Israel that prophesy, and say thou unto them that prophesy out
of their own hearts, Hear ye the word of the LORD; {3} Thus saith the
Lord GOD; Woe unto the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit, and have
seen nothing! {4} O Israel, thy prophets are like the foxes in the
deserts. {5} Ye have not gone up into the gaps, neither made up the
hedge for the house of Israel to stand in the battle in the day of the LORD.
{6} They have seen vanity and lying divination, saying, The LORD saith:
and the LORD hath not sent them: and they have made others to hope that they would
confirm the word. {7} Have ye not seen a vain vision, and have ye not
spoken a lying divination, whereas ye say, The LORD saith it; albeit I have not
spoken? {8} Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because ye have spoken
vanity, and seen lies, therefore, behold, I am against you, saith the Lord GOD.
{9} And mine hand shall be upon the prophets that see vanity, and that
divine lies: they shall not be in the assembly of my people, neither shall they
be written in the writing of the house of Israel, neither shall they enter into
the land of Israel; and ye shall know that I am the Lord GOD. {10}
Because, even because they have seduced my people, saying, Peace; and there was
no peace; and one built up a wall, and, lo, others daubed it with untempered morter:
{11} Say unto them which daub it with untempered morter, that it shall
fall: there shall be an overflowing shower; and ye, O great hailstones, shall
fall; and a stormy wind shall rend it. {12} Lo, when the wall is fallen,
shall it not be said unto you, Where is the daubing wherewith ye have daubed it?
{13} Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even rend it with a stormy
wind in my fury; and there shall be an overflowing shower in mine anger, and great
hailstones in my fury to consume it. {14} So will I break down the
wall that ye have daubed with untempered morter, and bring it down to the ground,
so that the foundation thereof shall be discovered, and it shall fall, and ye
shall be consumed in the midst thereof: and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
{15} Thus will I accomplish my wrath upon the wall, and upon them that
have daubed it with untempered morter, and will say unto you, The wall is no more,
neither they that daubed it; {16} To wit, the prophets of Israel which
prophesy concerning Jerusalem, and which see visions of peace for her, and there
is no peace, saith the Lord GOD. {17} Likewise, thou son of man, set
thy face against the daughters of thy people, which prophesy out of their own
heart; and prophesy thou against them, {18} And say, Thus saith the
Lord GOD; Woe to the women that sew pillows to all armholes, and make kerchiefs
upon the head of every stature to hunt souls! Will ye hunt the souls of my people,
and will ye save the souls alive that come unto you? {19} And will
ye pollute me among my people for handfuls of barley and for pieces of bread,
to slay the souls that should not die, and to save the souls alive that should
not live, by your lying to my people that hear your lies? {20} Wherefore
thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against your pillows, wherewith ye there
hunt the souls to make them fly, and I will tear them from your arms, and will
let the souls go, even the souls that ye hunt to make them fly. {21}
Your kerchiefs also will I tear, and deliver my people out of your hand, and they
shall be no more in your hand to be hunted; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
{22} Because with lies ye have made the heart of the righteous sad, whom
I have not made sad; and strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should
not return from his wicked way, by promising him life: {23} Therefore
ye shall see no more vanity, nor divine divinations: for I will deliver my people
out of your hand: and ye shall know that I am the LORD. Ezekiel
-- 14{1} Then
came certain of the elders of Israel unto me, and sat before me. {2}
And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, {3} Son of man, these
men have set up their idols in their heart, and put the stumblingblock of their
iniquity before their face: should I be inquired of at all by them? {4}
Therefore speak unto them, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Every man
of the house of Israel that setteth up his idols in his heart, and putteth the
stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to the prophet; I the
LORD will answer him that cometh according to the multitude of his idols;
{5} That I may take the house of Israel in their own heart, because they
are all estranged from me through their idols. {6} Therefore say unto
the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Repent, and turn yourselves from
your idols; and turn away your faces from all your abominations. {7}
For every one of the house of Israel, or of the stranger that sojourneth in Israel,
which separateth himself from me, and setteth up his idols in his heart, and putteth
the stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to a prophet to
inquire of him concerning me; I the LORD will answer him by myself: {8}
And I will set my face against that man, and will make him a sign and a proverb,
and I will cut him off from the midst of my people; and ye shall know that I am
the LORD. {9} And if the prophet be deceived when he hath spoken a
thing, I the LORD have deceived that prophet, and I will stretch out my hand upon
him, and will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel. {10}
And they shall bear the punishment of their iniquity: the punishment of the prophet
shall be even as the punishment of him that seeketh unto him; {11}
That the house of Israel may go no more astray from me, neither be polluted any
more with all their transgressions; but that they may be my people, and I may
be their God, saith the Lord GOD. {12} The word of the LORD came again
to me, saying, {13} Son of man, when the land sinneth against me by
trespassing grievously, then will I stretch out mine hand upon it, and will break
the staff of the bread thereof, and will send famine upon it, and will cut off
man and beast from it: {14} Though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and
Job, were in it, they should deliver but their own souls by their righteousness,
saith the Lord GOD. {15} If I cause noisome beasts to pass through
the land, and they spoil it, so that it be desolate, that no man may pass through
because of the beasts: {16} Though these three men were in it, as I
live, saith the Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters; they
only shall be delivered, but the land shall be desolate. {17} Or if
I bring a sword upon that land, and say, Sword, go through the land; so that I
cut off man and beast from it: {18} Though these three men were in
it, as I live, saith the Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters,
but they only shall be delivered themselves. {19} Or if I send a pestilence
into that land, and pour out my fury upon it in blood, to cut off from it man
and beast: {20} Though Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, as I live,
saith the Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither son nor daughter; they shall but
deliver their own souls by their righteousness. {21} For thus saith
the Lord GOD; How much more when I send my four sore judgments upon Jerusalem,
the sword, and the famine, and the noisome beast, and the pestilence, to cut off
from it man and beast? {22} Yet, behold, therein shall be left a remnant
that shall be brought forth, both sons and daughters: behold, they shall come
forth unto you, and ye shall see their way and their doings: and ye shall be comforted
concerning the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, even concerning all that
I have brought upon it. {23} And they shall comfort you, when ye see
their ways and their doings: and ye shall know that I have not done without cause
all that I have done in it, saith the Lord GOD. Ezekiel
-- 15{1} And the
word of the LORD came unto me, saying, {2} Son of man, What is the
vine tree more than any tree, or than a branch which is among the trees of the
forest? {3} Shall wood be taken thereof to do any work? or will men
take a pin of it to hang any vessel thereon? {4} Behold, it is cast
into the fire for fuel; the fire devoureth both the ends of it, and the midst
of it is burned. Is it meet for any work? {5} Behold, when it was whole,
it was meet for no work: how much less shall it be meet yet for any work, when
the fire hath devoured it, and it is burned? {6} Therefore thus saith
the Lord GOD; As the vine tree among the trees of the forest, which I have given
to the fire for fuel, so will I give the inhabitants of Jerusalem. {7}
And I will set my face against them; they shall go out from one fire, and another
fire shall devour them; and ye shall know that I am the LORD, when I set my face
against them. {8} And I will make the land desolate, because they have
committed a trespass, saith the Lord GOD. Hebrews
-- 11{1} Now faith
is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. {2}
For by it the elders obtained a good report. {3} Through faith we understand
that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen
were not made of things which do appear. {4} By faith Abel offered
unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that
he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.
{5} By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was
not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this
testimony, that he pleased God. {6} But without faith it is impossible
to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he
is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. {7} By faith Noah,
being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark
to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir
of the righteousness which is by faith. {8} By faith Abraham, when
he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance,
obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went. {9} By faith
he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles
with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise: {10}
For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
{11} Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed,
and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful
who had promised. {12} Therefore sprang there even of one, and him
as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand
which is by the sea shore innumerable. {13} These all died in faith,
not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded
of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims
on the earth. {14} For they that say such things declare plainly that
they seek a country. {15} And truly, if they had been mindful of that
country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned.
{16} But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore
God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.
{17} By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that
had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, {18} Of
whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called: {19} Accounting
that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received
him in a figure. {20} By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning
things to come. {21} By faith Jacob, when he was a dying, blessed both
the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff. {22}
By faith Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children of
Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones. {23} By faith Moses,
when he was born, was hid three months of his parents, because they saw he was
a proper child; and they were not afraid of the king's commandment. {24}
By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's
daughter; {25} Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people
of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; {26} Esteeming
the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had
respect unto the recompence of the reward. {27} By faith he forsook
Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is
invisible. {28} Through faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling
of blood, lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them. {29}
By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the Egyptians assaying
to do were drowned. {30} By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after
they were compassed about seven days. {31} By faith the harlot Rahab
perished not with them that believed not, when she had received the spies with
peace. {32} And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to
tell of Gedeon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthae; of David also, and
Samuel, and of the prophets: {33} Who through faith subdued kingdoms,
wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, {34}
Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness
were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens.
{35} Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured,
not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection: {36}
And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds
and imprisonment: {37} They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were
tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins;
being destitute, afflicted, tormented; {38} (Of whom the world was
not worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves
of the earth. {39} And these all, having obtained a good report through
faith, received not the promise: {40} God having provided some better
thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.
