own hearts, Hear ye the word of the LORD;

for the house of Israel to stand in the battle in the day of
the LORD.

people, neither shall they be written in the writing of the
house of Israel, neither shall they enter into the land of
Israel; and ye shall know that I am the Lord GOD.

lo, others daubed it with untempered morter:
Peace; and there was no peace; and one built up a wall, and,
lo, others daubed it with untempered morter:

consume it.

and ye shall be consumed in the midst thereof: and ye shall
know that I am the LORD.

you, The wall is no more, neither they that daubed it;

Jerusalem, and which see visions of peace for her, and there
is no peace, saith the Lord GOD.

every stature to hunt souls! Will ye hunt the souls of my
people, and will ye save the souls alive that come unto you?

every stature to hunt souls! Will ye hunt the souls of my
people, and will ye save the souls alive that come unto you?

and for pieces of bread, to slay the souls that should not
die, and to save the souls alive that should not live, by your
lying to my people that hear your lies?

pillows, wherewith ye there hunt the souls to make them fly,
and I will tear them from your arms, and will let the souls
go, even the souls that ye hunt to make them fly.

wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way, by
promising him life:

face: should I be enquired of at all by them?

idols in his heart, and putteth the stumblingblock of his
iniquity before his face, and cometh to the prophet; I the
LORD will answer him that cometh according to the multitude of
his idols;

idols in his heart, and putteth the stumblingblock of his
iniquity before his face, and cometh to the prophet; I the

because they are all estranged from me through their idols.

GOD; Repent, and turn yourselves from your idols; and turn
away your faces from all your abominations.

stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to
a prophet to enquire of him concerning me; I the LORD will
answer him by myself:

sign and a proverb, and I will cut him off from the midst of
my people; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.

hand upon him, and will destroy him from the midst of my
people Israel.

punishment of the prophet shall be even as the punishment of
him that seeketh unto him;

the Lord GOD.

grievously, then will I stretch out mine hand upon it, and
will break the staff of the bread thereof, and will send
famine upon it, and will cut off man and beast from it:

they should deliver but their own souls by their
righteousness, saith the Lord GOD.

spoil it, so that it be desolate, that no man may pass through
because of the beasts:

shall be delivered, but the land shall be desolate.

Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither son nor daughter; they
shall but deliver their own souls by their righteousness.

the noisome beast, and the pestilence, to cut off from it man
and beast?

have brought upon Jerusalem, even concerning all that I have
brought upon it.

devoured it, and it is burned?

so will I give the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

field, to the lothing of thy person, in the day that thou wast
born.
