Ezekiel 33:23-33 - Israel's Continued Rebellion
23 And the word of Jehovah will be to me, saying, 24 Son of man, they inhabiting these wastes upon the land of Israel say, saying, Abraham was one, and he will inherit the land: and we are many; the land was given to us for a possession. 25 For this, say to them, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Ye will eat with the bloods, and ye will lift up your eyes to your blocks, and ye will pour out blood: and shall ye possess the land? 26 Ye stood upon your sword, ye did abomination, and ye defiled each his neighbor's wife: and shall ye possess the land?
27 Thus shalt thou say to them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: I live if not they who are in the wastes shall fall by the sword, and he who is upon the face of the field I gave him to the beast to eat him, and they who are in the fastnesses and in caves shall die by death. 28 And I gave the land a desolation and an amazement, and I caused the pride of her strength to cease; and the mountains of Israel were desolate from none passing through. 29 And they shall know that I am Jehovah in my giving the land a desolation and an astonishment for all their abominations which they did.
30 And thou son of man, the sons of my people are speaking against thee by the walls and in the doors of the houses, and speaking one to another, a man to his brother, saying, Come now and hear what the word coming forth from Jehovah. 31 And they will come to thee, according to the coming of the people, and they will sit before thee my people, and they heard thy words, and they did them not: for they making loves with their mouth, their heart went after their plunder. 32 And behold thee to them as song of loves of a fair voice, playing well an instrument: and they heard thy words and did them not 33 And in its coming (behold, it came) and they shall know that a prophet was in the midst of them.
