Ezekiel 13:7 (RSV) Revised Standard Version

1 The word of the LORD came to me:
2 "Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel, prophesy and say to those who prophesy out of their own minds: `Hear the word of the LORD!'
3 Thus says the Lord GOD, Woe to the foolish prophets who follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing!
4 Your prophets have been like foxes among ruins, O Israel.
5 You have not gone up into the breaches, or built up a wall for the house of Israel, that it might stand in battle in the day of the LORD.
6 They have spoken falsehood and divined a lie; they say, `Says the LORD,' when the LORD has not sent them, and yet they expect him to fulfil their word.
7 Have you not seen a delusive vision, and uttered a lying divination, whenever you have said, `Says the LORD,' although I have not spoken?"
8 Therefore thus says the Lord God: "Because you have uttered delusions and seen lies, therefore behold, I am against you, says the Lord GOD.
9 My hand will be against the prophets who see delusive visions and who give lying divinations; they shall not be in the council of my people, nor be enrolled in the register of the house of Israel, nor shall they enter the land of Israel; and you shall know that I am the Lord GOD.
10 Because, yea, because they have misled my people, saying, `Peace,' when there is no peace; and because, when the people build a wall, these prophets daub it with whitewash;
11 say to those who daub it with whitewash that it shall fall! There will be a deluge of rain, great hailstones will fall, and a stormy wind break out;
12 and when the wall falls, will it not be said to you, `Where is the daubing with which you daubed it?'
13 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: I will make a stormy wind break out in my wrath; and there shall be a deluge of rain in my anger, and great hailstones in wrath to destroy it.
14 And I will break down the wall that you have daubed with whitewash, and bring it down to the ground, so that its foundation will be laid bare; when it falls, you shall perish in the midst of it; and you shall know that I am the LORD.
15 Thus will I spend my wrath upon the wall, and upon those who have daubed it with whitewash; and I will say to you, The wall is no more, nor those who daubed it,
16 the prophets of Israel who prophesied concerning Jerusalem and saw visions of peace for her, when there was no peace, says the Lord GOD.
17 "And you, son of man, set your face against the daughters of your people, who prophesy out of their own minds; prophesy against them
18 and say, Thus says the Lord GOD: Woe to the women who sew magic bands upon all wrists, and make veils for the heads of persons of every stature, in the hunt for souls! Will you hunt down souls belonging to my people, and keep other souls alive for your profit?
19 You have profaned me among my people for handfuls of barley and for pieces of bread, putting to death persons who should not die and keeping alive persons who should not live, by your lies to my people, who listen to lies.
20 "Wherefore thus says the Lord GOD: Behold, I am against your magic bands with which you hunt the souls, and I will tear them from your arms; and I will let the souls that you hunt go free like birds.
21 Your veils also I will tear off, and deliver my people out of your hand, and they shall be no more in your hand as prey; and you shall know that I am the LORD.
22 Because you have disheartened the righteous falsely, although I have not disheartened him, and you have encouraged the wicked, that he should not turn from his wicked way to save his life;
23 therefore you shall no more see delusive visions nor practice divination; I will deliver my people out of your hand. Then you will know that I am the LORD."
1 And the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 came H1961 unto H413 me, saying, H559
2 Son H1121 of man, H120 prophesy H5012 against H413 the prophets H5030 of Israel H3478 that prophesy, H5012 and say H559 thou unto them that prophesy H5030 out of their own hearts H4480 H3820 , Hear H8085 ye the word H1697 of the LORD; H3068
3 Thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD; H3069 Woe H1945 unto H5921 the foolish H5036 prophets, H5030 that H834 follow H1980 H310 their own spirit, H7307 and have seen H7200 nothing H1115 !
4 O Israel, H3478 thy prophets H5030 are H1961 like the foxes H7776 in the deserts. H2723
5 Ye have not H3808 gone up H5927 into the gaps, H6556 neither made up H1443 the hedge H1447 for H5921 the house H1004 of Israel H3478 to stand H5975 in the battle H4421 in the day H3117 of the LORD. H3068
6 They have seen H2372 vanity H7723 and lying H3577 divination, H7081 saying, H559 The LORD H3068 saith: H5002 and the LORD H3068 hath not H3808 sent H7971 them : and they have made others to hope H3176 that they would confirm H6965 the word. H1697
7 Have ye not H3808 seen H2372 a vain H7723 vision, H4236 and have ye not spoken H559 a lying H3577 divination, H4738 whereas ye say, H559 The LORD H3068 saith H5002 it ; albeit I H589 have not H3808 spoken H1696 ?
8 Therefore H3651 thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD; H3069 Because H3282 ye have spoken H1696 vanity, H7723 and seen H2372 lies, H3577 therefore, H3651 behold, H2009 I am against H413 you, saith H5002 the Lord H136 GOD. H3069
9 And mine hand H3027 shall be H1961 upon H413 the prophets H5030 that see H2372 vanity, H7723 and that divine H7080 lies: H3577 they shall not H3808 be H1961 in the assembly H5475 of my people, H5971 neither H3808 shall they be written H3789 in the writing H3791 of the house H1004 of Israel, H3478 neither H3808 shall they enter H935 into H413 the land H127 of Israel; H3478 and ye shall know H3045 that H3588 I H589 am the Lord H136 GOD. H3069
10 Because H3282 , even because H3282 they have seduced H2937 H853 my people, H5971 saying, H559 Peace; H7965 and there was no H369 peace; H7965 and one H1931 built up H1129 a wall, H2434 and, lo, H2009 others daubed H2902 it with untempered H8602 mortar :
11 Say H559 unto H413 them which daub H2902 it with untempered H8602 mortar , that it shall fall: H5307 there shall be H1961 an overflowing H7857 shower; H1653 and ye, H859 O great hailstones H68 H417 , shall fall; H5307 and a stormy H5591 wind H7307 shall rend H1234 it .
12 Lo H2009 , when the wall H7023 is fallen, H5307 shall it not H3808 be said H559 unto H413 you, Where H346 is the daubing H2915 wherewith H834 ye have daubed H2902 it ?
13 Therefore H3651 thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD; H3069 I will even rend H1234 it with a stormy H5591 wind H7307 in my fury; H2534 and there shall be H1961 an overflowing H7857 shower H1653 in mine anger, H639 and great hailstones H68 H417 in my fury H2534 to consume H3617 it .
14 So will I break down H2040 H853 the wall H7023 that H834 ye have daubed H2902 with untempered H8602 mortar , and bring it down H5060 to H413 the ground, H776 so that the foundation H3247 thereof shall be discovered, H1540 and it shall fall, H5307 and ye shall be consumed H3615 in the midst H8432 thereof : and ye shall know H3045 that H3588 I H589 am the LORD. H3068
15 Thus will I accomplish H3615 H853 my wrath H2534 upon the wall, H7023 and upon them that have daubed H2902 it with untempered H8602 mortar , and will say H559 unto you , The wall H7023 is no H369 more , neither H369 they that daubed H2902 it;
16 To wit , the prophets H5030 of Israel H3478 which prophesy H5012 concerning H413 Jerusalem, H3389 and which see H2372 visions H2377 of peace H7965 for her , and there is no H369 peace, H7965 saith H5002 the Lord H136 GOD. H3069
17 Likewise, thou H859 son H1121 of man, H120 set H7760 thy face H6440 against H413 the daughters H1323 of thy people, H5971 which prophesy H5012 out of H4480 their own heart; H3820 and prophesy H5012 thou against H5921 them,
18 And say, H559 Thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD; H3069 Woe H1945 to the women that sew H8609 pillows H3704 to H5921 all H3605 armholes H679 H3027 , and make H6213 kerchiefs H4555 upon H5921 the head H7218 of every H3605 stature H6967 to hunt H6679 souls H5315 ! Will ye hunt H6679 the souls H5315 of my people, H5971 and will ye save the souls alive H2421 H5315 that come unto you?
19 And will ye pollute H2490 me among H413 my people H5971 for handfuls H8168 of barley H8184 and for pieces H6595 of bread, H3899 to slay H4191 the souls H5315 that H834 should not H3808 die, H4191 and to save the souls alive H2421 H5315 that H834 should not H3808 live, H2421 by your lying H3576 to my people H5971 that hear H8085 your lies H3577 ?
20 Wherefore H3651 thus H3541 saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD; H3069 Behold, H2009 I am against H413 your pillows, H3704 wherewith H834 ye H859 there H8033 hunt H6679 H853 the souls H5315 to make them fly, H6524 and I will tear H7167 them from H4480 H5921 your arms, H2220 and will let the souls go H7971 H853 H5315 , even H853 the souls H5315 that H834 ye H859 hunt H6679 to make them fly. H6524
21 H853 Your kerchiefs H4555 also will I tear, H7167 and deliver H5337 H853 my people H5971 out of your hand H4480 H3027 , and they shall be H1961 no H3808 more H5750 in your hand H3027 to be hunted; H4686 and ye shall know H3045 that H3588 I H589 am the LORD. H3068
22 Because H3282 with lies H8267 ye have made the heart H3820 of the righteous H6662 sad, H3512 whom I H589 have not H3808 made sad; H3510 and strengthened H2388 the hands H3027 of the wicked, H7563 that he should not H1115 return H7725 from his wicked way H4480 H1870, H7451 by promising him life: H2421
23 Therefore H3651 ye shall see H2372 no H3808 more H5750 vanity, H7723 nor H3808 divine H7080 divinations: H7081 for I will deliver H5337 H853 my people H5971 out of your hand H4480 H3027 : and ye shall know H3045 that H3588 I H589 am the LORD. H3068
