11:1 The
Spirit
lifted
me
up
and
brought
me
to
the
east
gate
of
the
house
of
the
LORD,
which
faces
east.
And
behold,
at
the
entrance
of
the
gateway
there
were
twenty-five
men.
And
I
saw
among
them
Jaazaniah
the
son
of
Azzur,
and
Pelatiah
the
son
of
Benaiah,
princes
of
the
people.
11:2 And
he
said
to
me,
"Son
of
man,
these
are
the
men
who
devise
iniquity
and
who
give
wicked
counsel
in
this
city;
11:3 who
say,
'The
time
is
not
near
to
build
houses.
This
city
is
the
cauldron,
and
we
are
the
meat.'
11:4 Therefore
prophesy
against
them,
prophesy,
O
son
of
man."
11:5 And
the
Spirit
of
the
LORD
fell
upon
me,
and
he
said
to
me,
"Say,
Thus
says
the
LORD:
So
you
think,
O
house
of
Israel.
For
I
know
the
things
that
come
into
your
mind.
11:6 You
have
multiplied
your
slain
in
this
city
and
have
filled
its
streets
with
the
slain.
11:7 Therefore
thus
says
the
Lord
GOD:
Your
slain
whom
you
have
laid
in
the
midst
of
it,
they
are
the
meat,
and
this
city
is
the
cauldron,
but
you
shall
be
brought
out
of
the
midst
of
it.
11:8 You
have
feared
the
sword,
and
I
will
bring
the
sword
upon
you,
declares
the
Lord
GOD.
11:9 And
I
will
bring
you
out
of
the
midst
of
it,
and
give
you
into
the
hands
of
foreigners,
and
execute
judgments
upon
you.
11:10 You
shall
fall
by
the
sword.
I
will
judge
you
at
the
border
of
Israel,
and
you
shall
know
that
I
am
the
LORD.
11:11 This
city
shall
not
be
your
cauldron,
nor
shall
you
be
the
meat
in
the
midst
of
it.
I
will
judge
you
at
the
border
of
Israel,
11:12 and
you
shall
know
that
I
am
the
LORD.
For
you
have
not
walked
in
my
statutes,
nor
obeyed
my
rules,
but
have
acted
according
to
the
rules
of
the
nations
that
are
around
you."
11:13 And
it
came
to
pass,
while
I
was
prophesying,
that
Pelatiah
the
son
of
Benaiah
died.
Then
I
fell
down
on
my
face
and
cried
out
with
a
loud
voice
and
said,
"Ah,
Lord
GOD!
Will
you
make
a
full
end
of
the
remnant
of
Israel"
11:14 And
the
word
of
the
LORD
came
to
me:
11:15 "Son
of
man,
your
brothers,
even
your
brothers,
your
kinsmen,
the
whole
house
of
Israel,
all
of
them,
are
those
of
whom
the
inhabitants
of
Jerusalem
have
said,
'Go
far
from
the
LORD;
to
us
this
land
is
given
for
a
possession.'
11:16 Therefore
say,
'Thus
says
the
Lord
GOD:
Though
I
removed
them
far
off
among
the
nations,
and
though
I
scattered
them
among
the
countries,
yet
I
have
been
a
sanctuary
to
them
for
a
while
in
the
countries
where
they
have
gone.'
11:17 Therefore
say,
'Thus
says
the
Lord
GOD:
I
will
gather
you
from
the
peoples
and
assemble
you
out
of
the
countries
where
you
have
been
scattered,
and
I
will
give
you
the
land
of
Israel.'
11:18 And
when
they
come
there,
they
will
remove
from
it
all
its
detestable
things
and
all
its
abominations.
11:19 And
I
will
give
them
one
heart,
and
a
new
spirit
I
will
put
within
them.
I
will
remove
the
heart
of
stone
from
their
flesh
and
give
them
a
heart
of
flesh,
11:20 that
they
may
walk
in
my
statutes
and
keep
my
rules
and
obey
them.
And
they
shall
be
my
people,
and
I
will
be
their
God.
11:21 But
as
for
those
whose
heart
goes
after
their
detestable
things
and
their
abominations,
I
will
bring
their
deeds
upon
their
own
heads,
declares
the
Lord
GOD."
11:22 Then
the
cherubim
lifted
up
their
wings,
with
the
wheels
beside
them,
and
the
glory
of
the
God
of
Israel
was
over
them.
11:23 And
the
glory
of
the
LORD
went
up
from
the
midst
of
the
city
and
stood
on
the
mountain
that
is
on
the
east
side
of
the
city.
11:24 And
the
Spirit
lifted
me
up
and
brought
me
in
the
vision
by
the
Spirit
of
God
into
Chaldea,
to
the
exiles.
Then
the
vision
that
I
had
seen
went
up
from
me.
11:25 And
I
told
the
exiles
all
the
things
that
the
LORD
had
shown
me.
