00:15 Hello and welcome to "His Words are Life."
00:17 I'm Kelly Mowrer and today we'll continue
00:19 reading together from the Book of Ezekiel.
00:22 But first let's pray together.
00:24 Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for Your word
00:28 that we can come apart and be fed by now.
00:31 Please send Your Holy Spirit to open our hearts
00:34 and to plant these seeds of the truths
00:38 that we'll hear during this time,
00:40 so that they will bear much fruit to Your glory.
00:42 We love You so much and thank You
00:43 for loving us, amen.
00:46 We're picking up in Ezekiel Chapter 23,
00:50 starting with verse 28
00:52 and this is the King James Version.
00:54 "For thus saith the Lord God, behold,
00:57 I will deliver thee into the hand of them
01:00 whom thou hatest, into the hand of them
01:03 from whom thy mind is alienated.
01:07 And they shall deal with thee hatefully,
01:09 and shall take away all thy labor,
01:11 and shall leave thee naked and bare,
01:14 and the nakedness of thy whoredoms
01:16 shall be discovered,
01:18 both thy lewdness and thy whoredoms.
01:20 I will do these things unto thee,
01:22 because thou hast gone a whoring after the heathen,
01:26 and because thou art polluted with their idols.
01:29 Thou hast walked in the way of thy sister,
01:32 therefore will I give her cup into thine hand.
01:37 Thus saith the Lord God,
01:38 Thou shalt drink of thy sister's cup
01:41 deep and large,
01:43 thou shalt be laughed to scorn and had in derision,
01:47 it containeth much.
01:49 Thou shalt be filled with drunkenness and sorrow,
01:52 with the cup of astonishment and desolation,
01:56 with the cup of thy sister Samaria.
01:59 Thou shalt even drink it and suck it out,
02:02 and thou shalt break the sherds thereof,
02:04 and pluck off thine own breasts,
02:05 for I have spoken it, saith the Lord God.
02:09 Therefore thus saith the Lord God,
02:11 because thou hast forgotten me,
02:14 and cast me behind thy back,
02:18 therefore bear thou also thy lewdness
02:21 and thy whoredoms.
02:23 The Lord said moreover unto me, son of man,
02:27 wilt thou judge Aholah and Aholibah?
02:31 Yea, declare unto them their abominations.
02:33 That they have committed adultery,
02:35 and blood is in their hands,
02:37 and with their idols have they committed adultery,
02:39 and have also caused their sons,
02:42 whom they bare unto me,
02:43 to pass for them through the fire,
02:46 to devour them.
02:48 Moreover this they have done unto me,
02:51 they have defiled my sanctuary
02:54 in the same day, and have profaned my Sabbaths.
02:58 For when they had slain their children
03:01 to their idols, then they came the same day
03:04 into my sanctuary to profane it,
03:07 and, lo, thus have they done in the midst of mine house.
03:12 And furthermore, that ye have sent for men
03:15 to come from far, unto whom a messenger was sent,
03:20 and, lo, they came, for whom thou didst wash thyself,
03:26 paintedst thy eyes,
03:27 and deckedst thyself with ornaments.
03:29 And satest upon a stately bed,
03:33 and a table prepared before it,
03:35 whereupon thou hast set mine incense and mine oil.
03:39 And a voice of a multitude being at ease
03:42 was with her, and with the men
03:44 of the common sort were brought Sabeans
03:48 from the wilderness,
03:49 which put bracelets upon their hands,
03:51 and beautiful crowns upon their heads.
03:53 Then said I unto her that was old in adulteries,
03:58 Will they now commit whoredoms with her,
04:00 and she with them?
04:03 Yet they went in unto her,
04:05 as they go in unto a woman that playeth the harlot,
04:08 so went they in unto Aholah and unto Aholibah,
04:13 the lewd women.
04:15 And the righteous men, they shall judge them
04:18 after the manner of adulteresses,
04:20 and after the manner of women that shed blood,
04:23 because they are adulteresses,
04:25 and blood is in their hands.
04:28 For thus saith the Lord God,
04:30 I will bring up a company upon them,
04:33 and will give them to be removed and spoiled.
04:37 And the company shall stone them with stones,
04:39 and dispatch them with their swords,
04:42 they shall slay their sons and their daughters,
04:44 and burn up their houses with fire.
04:47 Thus will I cause lewdness to cease out of the land,
04:50 that all women may be taught
04:52 not to do after your lewdness.
04:55 And they shall recompense your lewdness upon you,
04:57 and ye shall bear the sins of your idols,
05:00 and ye shall know that I am the Lord God."
05:05 Continuing in the Book of Ezekiel Chapter 24,
05:09 and this is the King James Version.
05:12 "Again in the ninth year, in the tenth month,
05:15 in the tenth day of the month,
05:17 the word of the Lord came unto me, saying.
05:20 Son of man, write thee the name of the day,
05:23 even of this same day,
05:25 the king of Babylon set himself
05:27 against Jerusalem this same day.
05:31 And utter a parable unto the rebellious house,
05:33 and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God,
05:36 Set on a pot, set it on, and also pour water into it,
05:41 gather the pieces thereof into it,
05:43 even every good piece,
05:45 the thigh, and the shoulder, fill it with the choice bones.
05:49 Take the choice of the flock,
05:50 and burn also the bones under it,
05:52 and make it boil well, and let them seethe
05:55 the bones of it therein.
05:59 Wherefore thus saith the Lord God,
06:01 woe to the bloody city,
06:04 to the pot whose scum is therein,
06:07 and whose scum is not gone out of it.
06:09 Bring it out piece by piece, let no lot fall upon it.
06:14 For her blood is in the midst of her,
06:17 she set it upon the top of a rock,
06:19 she poured it not upon the ground,
06:21 to cover it with dust.
06:22 That it might cause fury to come up
06:24 to take vengeance, I have set her blood
06:26 upon the top of a rock,
06:27 that it should not be covered.
06:30 Therefore thus saith the Lord God,
06:31 Woe to the bloody city.
06:34 I will even make the pile for fire great.
06:37 Heap on wood, kindle the fire,
06:39 consume the flesh, and spice it well,
06:41 and let the bones be burned.
06:44 Then set it empty upon the coals thereof,
06:47 that the brass of it may be hot,
06:49 and may burn, and that the filthiness of it
06:52 may be molten in it,
06:54 that the scum of it may be consumed.
06:57 She hath wearied herself with lies,
07:00 and her great scum went not forth out of her,
07:02 her scum shall be in the fire.
07:06 In thy filthiness is lewdness,
07:08 because I have purged thee,
07:10 and thou wast not purged,
07:12 thou shalt not be purged from thy filthiness any more,
07:15 till I have caused my fury to rest upon thee.
07:19 I the Lord have spoken it, it shall come to pass,
07:23 and I will do it, I will not go back,
07:26 neither will I spare, neither will I repent,
07:30 according to thy ways, and according to thy doings,
07:34 shall they judge thee, saith the Lord God.
07:37 Also the word of the Lord came unto me, saying.
07:40 Son of man, behold, I take away from thee
07:45 the desire of thine eyes with a stroke,
07:48 yet neither shalt thou mourn nor weep,
07:51 neither shall thy tears run down.
07:53 Forbear to cry, make no mourning for the dead,
07:56 bind the tire of thine head upon thee,
07:59 and put on thy shoes upon thy feet,
08:01 and cover not thy lips, and eat not the bread of men.
08:05 So I spake unto the people in the morning,
08:07 and at even my wife died,
08:10 and I did in the morning as I was commanded.
08:13 And the people said unto me,
08:15 Wilt thou not tell us what these things are to us,
08:18 that thou doest so?
08:21 Then I answered them,
08:23 the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
08:25 speak unto the house of Israel,
08:26 Thus saith the Lord God,
08:29 behold, I will profane my sanctuary,
08:32 the Excellency of your strength,
08:34 the desire of your eyes,
08:35 and that which your soul pitieth,
08:38 and your sons and your daughters
08:40 whom ye have left shall fall by the sword.
08:43 And ye shall do as I have done,
08:45 ye shall not cover your lips,
08:46 nor eat the bread of men.
08:48 And your tires shall be upon your heads,
08:50 and your shoes upon your feet,
08:53 ye shall not mourn nor weep,
08:55 but ye shall pine away for your iniquities,
08:59 and mourn one toward another.
09:02 Thus Ezekiel is unto you a sign,
09:06 according to all that he hath done
09:09 shall ye do, and when this cometh,
09:12 ye shall know that I am the Lord God.
09:16 Also, thou son of man, shall it not be in the day
09:19 when I take from them their strength,
09:22 the joy of their glory, the desire of their eyes,
09:26 and that whereupon they set their minds,
09:28 their sons and their daughters.
09:30 That he that escapeth in that day
09:31 shall come unto thee,
09:33 to cause thee to hear it with thine ears?
09:36 In that day shall thy mouth be opened
09:38 to him which is escaped, and thou shalt speak,
09:41 and be no more dumb,
09:43 and thou shalt be a sign unto them,
09:45 and they shall know that I am the Lord."
09:50 Continuing to read Ezekiel Chapter 25
09:53 and this is the King James Version.
09:56 "The word of the Lord came again unto me, saying.
10:00 Son of man, set thy face against the Ammonites,
10:02 and prophesy against them.
10:04 And say unto the Ammonites,
10:06 Hear the word of the Lord God,
10:09 thus saith the Lord God, because thou saidst,
10:12 Aha, against my sanctuary, when it was profaned,
10:16 and against the land of Israel, when it was desolate,
10:19 and against the house of Judah, when they went into captivity.
10:24 Behold, therefore I will deliver thee
10:28 to the men of the east for a possession,
10:31 and they shall set their palaces in thee,
10:33 and make their dwellings in thee,
10:35 they shall eat thy fruit, and they shall drink thy milk.
10:39 And I will make Rabbah a stable for camels,
10:42 and the Ammonites a couching place for flocks,
10:46 and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
10:50 For thus saith the Lord God,
10:52 because thou hast clapped thine hands,
10:54 and stamped with the feet,
10:56 and rejoiced in heart with all thy despite
11:00 against the land of Israel.
11:03 Behold, therefore I will stretch out
11:04 mine hand upon thee,
11:07 and will deliver thee for a spoil to the heathen,
11:09 and I will cut thee off from the people,
11:11 and I will cause thee to perish
11:12 out of the countries,
11:14 I will destroy thee, and thou shalt know
11:17 that I am the Lord.
11:19 Thus saith the Lord God,
11:21 because that Moab and Seir do say, behold,
11:26 the house of Judah is like unto all the heathen.
11:30 Therefore, behold,
11:32 I will open the side of Moab from the cities,
11:35 from his cities which are on his frontiers,
11:38 the glory of the country,
11:40 Bethjeshimoth, Baalmeon, and Kiriathaim.
11:45 Unto the men of the east with the Ammonites,
11:47 and will give them in possession,
11:49 that the Ammonites may not be remembered
11:51 among the nations.
11:52 And I will execute judgments upon Moab,
11:55 and they shall know that I am the Lord.
11:59 Thus saith the Lord God,
12:01 because that Edom hath dealt
12:04 against the house of Judah
12:06 by taking vengeance, and hath greatly offended,
12:09 and revenged himself upon them.
12:13 Therefore thus saith the Lord God,
12:16 I will also stretch out mine hand upon Edom,
12:19 and will cut off man and beast from it,
12:23 and I will make it desolate from Teman,
12:25 and they of Dedan shall fall by the sword.
12:28 And I will lay my vengeance upon Edom
12:31 by the hand of my people Israel,
12:34 and they shall do in Edom
12:35 according to mine anger and according to my fury,
12:38 and they shall know my vengeance,
12:39 saith the Lord God.
12:42 Thus saith the Lord God,
12:43 because the Philistines have dealt by revenge,
12:46 and have taken vengeance with a despiteful heart,
12:49 to destroy it for the old hatred.
12:51 Therefore thus saith the Lord God, behold,
12:53 I will stretch out mine hand upon the Philistines,
12:56 and I will cut off the Cherethims,
12:58 and will destroy the remnant of the sea coast.
13:02 And I will execute great vengeance upon them
13:04 with furious rebukes, and they shall know
13:08 that I am the Lord,
13:09 when I shall lay my vengeance upon them."
13:13 Continuing in Ezekiel Chapter 26
13:16 and this is the King James Version.
13:19 "And it came to pass in the eleventh year,
13:21 in the first day of the month,
13:22 that the word of the Lord came unto me, saying.
13:26 Son of man, because that Tyrus
13:30 hath said against Jerusalem,
13:32 Aha, she is broken
13:34 that was the gates of the people,
13:36 she is turned unto me,
13:38 I shall be replenished, now she is laid waste.
13:43 Therefore thus saith the Lord God, behold,
13:46 I am against thee, O Tyrus,
13:48 and will cause many nations to come up against thee,
13:51 as the sea causeth his waves to come up.
13:54 And they shall destroy the walls of Tyrus,
13:56 and break down her towers,
13:58 I will also scrape her dust from her,
14:00 and make her like the top of a rock.
14:03 It shall be a place for the spreading of nets
14:05 in the midst of the sea,
14:07 for I have spoken it, saith the Lord God,
14:09 and it shall become a spoil to the nations.
14:12 And her daughters which are in the field
14:14 shall be slain by the sword,
14:16 and they shall know that I am the Lord.
14:20 For thus saith the Lord God,
14:21 Behold, I will bring upon Tyrus Nebuchadrezzar
14:25 king of Babylon, a king of kings,
14:27 from the north, with horses,
14:29 and with chariots, and with horsemen,
14:31 and companies, and much people."
14:35 Please join me again next time
14:36 to read the word of God together, goodbye.
