-- 36{1} Also,
thou son of man, prophesy unto the mountains of Israel, and say, Ye mountains
of Israel, hear the word of the LORD: {2} Thus saith the Lord GOD;
Because the enemy hath said against you, Aha, even the ancient high places are
ours in possession: {3} Therefore prophesy and say, Thus saith the
Lord GOD; Because they have made you desolate, and swallowed you up on every side,
that ye might be a possession unto the residue of the heathen, and ye are taken
up in the lips of talkers, and are an infamy of the people: {4} Therefore,
ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord GOD; Thus saith the Lord GOD
to the mountains, and to the hills, to the rivers, and to the valleys, to the
desolate wastes, and to the cities that are forsaken, which became a prey and
derision to the residue of the heathen that are round about; {5} Therefore
thus saith the Lord GOD; Surely in the fire of my jealousy have I spoken against
the residue of the heathen, and against all Idumea, which have appointed my land
into their possession with the joy of all their heart, with despiteful minds,
to cast it out for a prey. {6} Prophesy therefore concerning the land
of Israel, and say unto the mountains, and to the hills, to the rivers, and to
the valleys, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I have spoken in my jealousy and
in my fury, because ye have borne the shame of the heathen: {7} Therefore
thus saith the Lord GOD; I have lifted up mine hand, Surely the heathen that are
about you, they shall bear their shame. {8} But ye, O mountains of
Israel, ye shall shoot forth your branches, and yield your fruit to my people
of Israel; for they are at hand to come. {9} For, behold, I am for
you, and I will turn unto you, and ye shall be tilled and sown: {10}
And I will multiply men upon you, all the house of Israel, even all of it: and
the cities shall be inhabited, and the wastes shall be builded: {11}
And I will multiply upon you man and beast; and they shall increase and bring
fruit: and I will settle you after your old estates, and will do better unto you
than at your beginnings: and ye shall know that I am the LORD. {12}
Yea, I will cause men to walk upon you, even my people Israel; and they shall
possess thee, and thou shalt be their inheritance, and thou shalt no more henceforth
bereave them of men. {13} Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because they say
unto you, Thou land devourest up men, and hast bereaved thy nations; {14}
Therefore thou shalt devour men no more, neither bereave thy nations any more,
saith the Lord GOD. {15} Neither will I cause men to hear in thee the
shame of the heathen any more, neither shalt thou bear the reproach of the people
any more, neither shalt thou cause thy nations to fall any more, saith the Lord
GOD. {16} Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, {17}
Son of man, when the house of Israel dwelt in their own land, they defiled it
by their own way and by their doings: their way was before me as the uncleanness
of a removed woman. {18} Wherefore I poured my fury upon them for the
blood that they had shed upon the land, and for their idols wherewith they had
polluted it: {19} And I scattered them among the heathen, and they
were dispersed through the countries: according to their way and according to
their doings I judged them. {20} And when they entered unto the heathen,
whither they went, they profaned my holy name, when they said to them, These are
the people of the LORD, and are gone forth out of his land. {21} But
I had pity for mine holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the
heathen, whither they went. {22} Therefore say unto the house of Israel,
Thus saith the Lord GOD; I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but
for mine holy name's sake, which ye have profaned among the heathen, whither ye
went. {23} And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned among
the heathen, which ye have profaned in the midst of them; and the heathen shall
know that I am the LORD, saith the Lord GOD, when I shall be sanctified in you
before their eyes. {24} For I will take you from among the heathen,
and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land.
{25} Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean:
from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you. {26}
A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and
I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart
of flesh. {27} And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to
walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them. {28}
And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and ye shall be my
people, and I will be your God. {29} I will also save you from all
your uncleannesses: and I will call for the corn, and will increase it, and lay
no famine upon you. {30} And I will multiply the fruit of the tree,
and the increase of the field, that ye shall receive no more reproach of famine
among the heathen. {31} Then shall ye remember your own evil ways,
and your doings that were not good, and shall lothe yourselves in your own sight
for your iniquities and for your abominations. {32} Not for your sakes
do I this, saith the Lord GOD, be it known unto you: be ashamed and confounded
for your own ways, O house of Israel. {33} Thus saith the Lord GOD;
In the day that I shall have cleansed you from all your iniquities I will also
cause you to dwell in the cities, and the wastes shall be builded. {34}
And the desolate land shall be tilled, whereas it lay desolate in the sight of
all that passed by. {35} And they shall say, This land that was desolate
is become like the garden of Eden; and the waste and desolate and ruined cities
are become fenced, and are inhabited. {36} Then the heathen that are
left round about you shall know that I the LORD build the ruined places, and plant
that that was desolate: I the LORD have spoken it, and I will do it. {37}
Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will yet for this be inquired of by the house of Israel,
to do it for them; I will increase them with men like a flock. {38}
As the holy flock, as the flock of Jerusalem in her solemn feasts; so shall the
waste cities be filled with flocks of men: and they shall know that I am the LORD.
Ezekiel -- 37{1}
The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the LORD,
and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones, {2}
And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in
the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry. {3} And he said unto
me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord GOD, thou knowest.
{4} Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them,
O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD. {5} Thus saith the Lord
GOD unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall
live: {6} And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon
you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye
shall know that I am the LORD. {7} So I prophesied as I was commanded:
and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came
together, bone to his bone. {8} And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and
the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but there was no
breath in them. {9} Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy,
son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Come from the four winds,
O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live. {10} So
I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived,
and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army. {11} Then he
said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they
say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts.
{12} Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold,
O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves,
and bring you into the land of Israel. {13} And ye shall know that
I am the LORD, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you up
out of your graves, {14} And shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall
live, and I shall place you in your own land: then shall ye know that I the LORD
have spoken it, and performed it, saith the LORD. {15} The word of
the LORD came again unto me, saying, {16} Moreover, thou son of man,
take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel
his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick
of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel his companions: {17} And
join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thine hand.
{18} And when the children of thy people shall speak unto thee, saying,
Wilt thou not shew us what thou meanest by these? {19} Say unto them,
Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in
the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with
him, even with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be
one in mine hand. {20} And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be
in thine hand before their eyes. {21} And say unto them, Thus saith
the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen,
whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into
their own land: {22} And I will make them one nation in the land upon
the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall
be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more
at all: {23} Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their
idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions:
but I will save them out of all their dwellingplaces, wherein they have sinned,
and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God.
{24} And David my servant shall be king over them; and they all shall have
one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and
do them. {25} And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto
Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein,
even they, and their children, and their children's children for ever: and my
servant David shall be their prince for ever. {26} Moreover I will
make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them:
and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst
of them for evermore. {27} My tabernacle also shall be with them: yea,
I will be their God, and they shall be my people. {28} And the heathen
shall know that I the LORD do sanctify Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the
midst of them for evermore. First
Peter -- 3{1}
Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not
the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives;
{2} While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear. {3}
Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of
wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; {4} But let it be the
hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of
a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. {5}
For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God,
adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands: {6}
Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long
as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement. {7} Likewise,
ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife,
as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that
your prayers be not hindered. {8} Finally, be ye all of one mind, having
compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous: {9}
Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing;
knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing. {10}
For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from
evil, and his lips that they speak no guile: {11} Let him eschew evil,
and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it. {12} For the eyes of
the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but
the face of the Lord is against them that do evil. {13} And who is
he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good? {14}
But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid
of their terror, neither be troubled; {15} But sanctify the Lord God
in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh
you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear: {16}
Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers,
they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.
{17} For it is better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer for well
doing, than for evil doing. {18} For Christ also hath once suffered
for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to
death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: {19} By which also
he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; {20} Which sometime
were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah,
while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by
water. {21} The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save
us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience
toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ: {22} Who is gone
into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers
being made subject unto him. |
