- 1. ¶ MOREOVER the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
- 2. Also, Son of man, thus says the LORD God to the land of Israel: The end is come upon the land of Israel, the end is come upon the four corners of the land.
- 3. Now the end is come upon you, and I will pour out my wrath upon you, and I will judge you according to your ways and will recompense you all your abominations.
- 4. And my eye shall not spare you, neither will I have pity; but I will recompense you according to your ways, and your abominations shall be in your midst; and you shall know that I am the LORD.
- 5. Thus says the LORD God: Behold, an evil is coming for every evil which you have committed.
- 6. An end is coming, and it shall afflict you.
- 7. The dawn of destruction is come upon you, O you inhabitant of the land; the time is come, the day of trouble is near.
- 8. Now I will shortly pour out my wrath upon you, and I will pour out my anger upon you; and I will judge you according to your ways, and will recompense you for all your abominations.
- 9. And my eye shall not spare you, neither will I have pity; but I will recompense you according to your ways; and your abominations shall remain in the midst of you; and you shall know that I am the LORD who has smitten you.
- 10. Behold the day is come, the dawn is gone forth; the staff has blossomed, the shame has budded.
- 11. Violence has grown upon the staff of the wicked; none of them shall remain, neither their disturbances nor their works; nor shall I cease from punishing them.
- 12. The time is come, the day draws near; let not the buyer rejoice, nor the seller regret; for wrath is upon all their substance.
- 13. For the buyer shall not return to the seller, for they will not be living; for catastrophe shall not spare any of their possessions; neither shall a man spare his life by means of his corruptness.
- 14. They have blown the trumpet, and made all ready; but there is none that goes to battle; for my wrath is upon all their substance.
- 15. The sword is in the streets, pestilence and famine in the houses; he that is in the field shall die by the sword; and he that is in the city, famine and pestilence shall devour.
- 16. ¶ But those of them who escape shall escape on the mountains, and they shall take refuge like doves in the crags; all of them shall die every one in his own iniquity.
- 17. All hands shall be feeble and all knees shall be weak.
- 18. The people shall also gird themselves with sackcloth, and horror shall cover them; and shame shall be upon all faces, and baldness upon all heads.
- 19. They shall cast their silver into the streets, and their gold shall be despised; their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD; they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bellies; because this is their torment on account of their iniquity.
- 20. And the beauty of their ornaments, which they made with excellency for the images and altars of their abominations, I have made, therefore, to be despised;
- 21. And I will give it into the hands of strangers for a prey and to the wicked of the earth for a spoil; and they shall pollute it.
- 22. And I will turn my face from them, and they shall pollute my sanctuary, and robbers shall enter into it and defile it.
- 23. ¶ And they shall attack it with bricks; for the land is full of bloody crimes, and the city is full of iniquity.
- 24. Therefore I will bring shepherds of Gentiles, and they shall possess their houses; I will also make the excellency of the mighty ones to cease; and the Gentiles shall possess their sanctuary.
- 25. Indignation is coming; and they shall seek peace, and there shall be none.
- 26. Calamity shall come upon calamity, and rumor shall be upon rumor; then they shall seek a vision from the prophets; but the law shall perish from the priests, and counsel from the elders.
- 27. The king shall sit in mourning and the prince shall be clothed with desolation and the hands of the people of the land shall tremble; I will do to them according to their evil way, and according to their own judgments will I judge them; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
