Thy birth{H4351} and thy nativity{H4138} is of the land{H776} of Canaan{H3669}; thy father{H1} was an Amorite{H567}, and thy mother{H517} an Hittite{H2850}. 4 And as for thy nativity{H4138}, in the day{H3117} thou wast born{H3205}{(H8715)} thy navel{H8270} was not cut{H3772}{(H8795)}, neither wast thou washed{H7364}{(H8795)} in water{H4325} to supple{H4935} thee; thou wast not salted{H4414}{(H8717)} at all{H4414}{(H8715)}, nor swaddled{H2853}{(H8795)} at all{H2853}{(H8715)}. 5 None eye{H5869} pitied{H2347}{(H8804)} thee, to do{H6213}{(H8800)} any{H259} of these unto thee, to have compassion{H2550}{(H8800)} upon thee; but thou wast cast out{H7993}{(H8714)} in the open{H6440} field{H7704}, to the lothing{H1604} of thy person{H5315}, in the day{H3117} that thou wast born{H3205}{(H8715)}. 6 And when I passed{H5674}{(H8799)} by thee, and saw{H7200}{(H8799)} thee polluted{H947}{(H8711)} in thine own blood{H1818}, I said{H559}{(H8799)} unto thee when thou wast in thy blood{H1818}, Live{H2421}{(H8798)}; yea, I said{H559}{(H8799)} unto thee when thou wast in thy blood{H1818}, Live{H2421}{(H8798)}. 7 I have caused{H5414}{(H8804)} thee to multiply{H7233} as the bud{H6780} of the field{H7704}, and thou hast increased{H7235}{(H8799)} and waxen great{H1431}{(H8799)}, and thou art come{H935}{(H8799)} to excellent{H5716} ornaments{H5716}: thy breasts{H7699} are fashioned{H3559}{(H8738)}, and thine hair{H8181} is grown{H6779}{(H8765)}, whereas thou wast naked{H5903} and bare{H6181}. 8 Now when I passed{H5674}{(H8799)} by thee, and looked{H7200}{(H8799)} upon thee, behold, thy time{H6256} was the time{H6256} of love{H1730}; and I spread{H6566}{(H8799)} my skirt{H3671} over thee, and covered{H3680}{(H8762)} thy nakedness{H6172}: yea, I sware{H7650}{(H8735)} unto thee, and entered{H935}{(H8799)} into a covenant{H1285} with thee, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}, and thou becamest mine. 9 Then washed{H7364}{(H8799)} I thee with water{H4325}; yea, I throughly washed away{H7857}{(H8799)} thy blood{H1818} from thee, and I anointed{H5480}{(H8799)} thee with oil{H8081}. 10 I clothed{H3847}{(H8686)} thee also with broidered work{H7553}, and shod{H5274}{(H8799)} thee with badgers' skin{H8476}, and I girded{H2280}{(H8799)} thee about with fine linen{H8336}, and I covered{H3680}{(H8762)} thee with silk{H4897}. 11 I decked{H5710}{(H8799)} thee also with ornaments{H5716}, and I put{H5414}{(H8799)} bracelets{H6781} upon thy hands{H3027}, and a chain{H7242} on thy neck{H1627}. 12 And I put{H5414}{(H8799)} a jewel{H5141} on thy forehead{H639}, and earrings{H5694} in thine ears{H241}, and a beautiful{H8597} crown{H5850} upon thine head{H7218}. 13 Thus wast thou decked{H5710}{(H8799)} with gold{H2091} and silver{H3701}; and thy raiment{H4403} was of fine linen{H8336}{(H8675)}{H8336}, and silk{H4897}, and broidered work{H7553}; thou didst eat{H398}{(H8804)} fine flour{H5560}, and honey{H1706}, and oil{H8081}: and thou wast exceeding{H3966} beautiful{H3302}{(H8799)}, and thou didst prosper{H6743}{(H8799)} into a kingdom{H4410}. 14 And thy renown{H8034} went forth{H3318}{(H8799)} among the heathen{H1471} for thy beauty{H3308}: for it was perfect{H3632} through my comeliness{H1926}, which I had put{H7760}{(H8804)} upon thee, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}. 15 But thou didst trust{H982}{(H8799)} in thine own beauty{H3308}, and playedst the harlot{H2181}{(H8799)} because of thy renown{H8034}, and pouredst out{H8210}{(H8799)} thy fornications{H8457} on every one that passed by{H5674}{(H8802)}; his it was. 16 And of thy garments{H899} thou didst take{H3947}{(H8799)}, and deckedst{H6213}{(H8799)} thy high places{H1116} with divers colours{H2921}{(H8803)}, and playedst the harlot{H2181}{(H8799)} thereupon: the like things shall not come{H935}{(H8802)}, neither shall it be so. 17 Thou hast also taken{H3947}{(H8799)} thy fair{H8597} jewels{H3627} of my gold{H2091} and of my silver{H3701}, which I had given{H5414}{(H8804)} thee, and madest{H6213}{(H8799)} to thyself images{H6754} of men{H2145}, and didst commit whoredom{H2181}{(H8799)} with them, 18 And tookest{H3947}{(H8799)} thy broidered{H7553} garments{H899}, and coveredst{H3680}{(H8762)} them: and thou hast set{H5414}{(H8804)} mine oil{H8081} and mine incense{H7004} before{H6440} them. 19 My meat{H3899} also which I gave{H5414}{(H8804)} thee, fine flour{H5560}, and oil{H8081}, and honey{H1706}, wherewith I fed{H398}{(H8689)} thee, thou hast even set{H5414}{(H8804)} it before{H6440} them for a sweet{H5207} savour{H7381}: and thus it was, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}. 20 Moreover thou hast taken{H3947}{(H8799)} thy sons{H1121} and thy daughters{H1323}, whom thou hast borne{H3205}{(H8804)} unto me, and these hast thou sacrificed{H2076}{(H8799)} unto them to be devoured{H398}{(H8800)}. Is this of thy whoredoms{H8457} a small matter{H4592}, 21 That thou hast slain{H7819}{(H8799)} my children{H1121}, and delivered{H5414}{(H8799)} them to cause them to pass through{H5674}{(H8687)} the fire for them? 22 And in all thine abominations{H8441} and thy whoredoms{H8457} thou hast not remembered{H2142}{(H8804)} the days{H3117} of thy youth{H5271}, when thou wast naked{H5903} and bare{H6181}, and wast polluted{H947}{(H8711)} in thy blood{H1818}. 23 And it came to pass after{H310} all thy wickedness{H7451},(woe{H188}, woe{H188} unto thee! saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069};) 24 That thou hast also built{H1129}{(H8799)} unto thee an eminent place{H1354}, and hast made{H6213}{(H8799)} thee an high place{H7413} in every street{H7339}. 25 Thou hast built{H1129}{(H8804)} thy high place{H7413} at every head{H7218} of the way{H1870}, and hast made thy beauty{H3308} to be abhorred{H8581}{(H8762)}, and hast opened{H6589}{(H8762)} thy feet{H7272} to every one that passed by{H5674}{(H8802)}, and multiplied{H7235}{(H8686)} thy whoredoms{H8457}. 26 Thou hast also committed fornication{H2181}{(H8799)} with the Egyptians{H1121}{H4714} thy neighbours{H7934}, great{H1432} of flesh{H1320}; and hast increased{H7235}{(H8686)} thy whoredoms{H8457}, to provoke me to anger{H3707}{(H8687)}. 27 Behold, therefore I have stretched out{H5186}{(H8804)} my hand{H3027} over thee, and have diminished{H1639}{(H8799)} thine ordinary{H2706} food, and delivered{H5414}{(H8799)} thee unto the will{H5315} of them that hate{H8130}{(H8802)} thee, the daughters{H1323} of the Philistines{H6430}, which are ashamed{H3637}{(H8737)} of thy lewd{H2154} way{H1870}. 28 Thou hast played the whore{H2181}{(H8799)} also with the Assyrians{H1121}{H804}, because{H1115} thou wast unsatiable{H7646}{(H8804)}; yea, thou hast played the harlot{H2181}{(H8799)} with them, and yet couldest not be satisfied{H7654}. 29 Thou hast moreover multiplied{H7235}{(H8686)} thy fornication{H8457} in the land{H776} of Canaan{H3667} unto Chaldea{H3778}; and yet thou wast not satisfied{H7646}{(H8804)} herewith{H2063}. 30 How weak{H535}{(H8802)} is thine heart{H3826}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}, seeing thou doest{H6213}{(H8800)} all these things, the work{H4639} of an imperious{H7986} whorish{H2181}{(H8803)} woman{H802}; 31 In that thou buildest{H1129}{(H8800)} thine eminent place{H1354} in the head{H7218} of every way{H1870}, and makest{H6213}{(H8804)} thine high place{H7413} in every street{H7339}; and hast not been as an harlot{H2181}{(H8802)}, in that thou scornest{H7046}{(H8763)} hire{H868}; 32 But as a wife{H802} that committeth adultery{H5003}{(H8764)}, which taketh{H3947}{(H8799)} strangers{H2114}{(H8801)} instead of her husband{H376}! 33 They give{H5414}{(H8799)} gifts{H5078} to all whores{H2181}{(H8802)}: but thou givest{H5414}{(H8804)} thy gifts{H5083} to all thy lovers{H157}{(H8764)}, and hirest{H7809}{(H8799)} them, that they may come{H935}{(H8800)} unto thee on every side{H5439} for thy whoredom{H8457}. 34 And the contrary{H2016} is in thee from other women{H802} in thy whoredoms{H8457}, whereas none followeth{H310} thee to commit whoredoms{H2181}{(H8795)}: and in that thou givest{H5414}{(H8800)} a reward{H868}, and no reward{H868} is given{H5414}{(H8738)} unto thee, therefore thou art{H1961}{(H8799)} contrary{H2016}. 35 Wherefore, O harlot{H2181}{(H8802)}, hear{H8085}{(H8798)} the word{H1697} of the LORD{H3068}: 36 Thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}; Because thy filthiness{H5178} was poured out{H8210}{(H8736)}, and thy nakedness{H6172} discovered{H1540}{(H8735)} through thy whoredoms{H8457} with thy lovers{H157}{(H8764)}, and with all the idols{H1544} of thy abominations{H8441}, and by the blood{H1818} of thy children{H1121}, which thou didst give{H5414}{(H8804)} unto them; 37 Behold, therefore I will gather{H6908}{(H8764)} all thy lovers{H157}{(H8764)}, with whom thou hast taken pleasure{H6149}{(H8804)}, and all them that thou hast loved{H157}{(H8804)}, with all them that thou hast hated{H8130}{(H8804)}; I will even gather{H6908}{(H8765)} them round about{H5439} against thee, and will discover{H1540}{(H8765)} thy nakedness{H6172} unto them, that they may see{H7200}{(H8804)} all thy nakedness{H6172}. 38 And I will judge{H8199}{(H8804)} thee, as women that break wedlock{H5003}{(H8802)} and shed{H8210}{(H8802)} blood{H1818} are judged{H4941}; and I will give{H5414}{(H8804)} thee blood{H1818} in fury{H2534} and jealousy{H7068}. 39 And I will also give{H5414}{(H8804)} thee into their hand{H3027}, and they shall throw down{H2040}{(H8804)} thine eminent place{H1354}, and shall break down{H5422}{(H8765)} thy high places{H7413}: they shall strip{H6584}{(H8689)} thee also of thy clothes{H899}, and shall take{H3947}{(H8804)} thy fair{H8597} jewels{H3627}, and leave{H3240}{(H8689)} thee naked{H5903} and bare{H6181}. 40 They shall also bring up{H5927}{(H8689)} a company{H6951} against thee, and they shall stone{H7275}{(H8804)} thee with stones{H68}, and thrust thee through{H1333}{(H8765)} with their swords{H2719}. 41 And they shall burn{H8313}{(H8804)} thine houses{H1004} with fire{H784}, and execute{H6213}{(H8804)} judgments{H8201} upon thee in the sight{H5869} of many{H7227} women{H802}: and I will cause thee to cease{H7673}{(H8689)} from playing the harlot{H2181}{(H8802)}, and thou also shalt give{H5414}{(H8799)} no hire{H868} any more. 42 So will I make my fury{H2534} toward thee to rest{H5117}{(H8689)}, and my jealousy{H7068} shall depart{H5493}{(H8804)} from thee, and I will be quiet{H8252}{(H8804)}, and will be no more angry{H3707}{(H8799)}. 43 Because thou hast not remembered{H2142}{(H8804)} the days{H3117} of thy youth{H5271}, but hast fretted{H7264}{(H8799)} me in all these things; behold{H1887}, therefore I also will recompense{H5414}{(H8804)} thy way{H1870} upon thine head{H7218}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}: and thou shalt not commit{H6213}{(H8804)} this lewdness{H2154} above all thine abominations{H8441}. 44 Behold, every one that useth proverbs{H4911}{(H8802)} shall use this proverb{H4911}{(H8799)} against thee, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, As is the mother{H517}, so is her daughter{H1323}. 45 Thou art thy mother's{H517} daughter{H1323}, that lotheth{H1602}{(H8802)} her husband{H376} and her children{H1121}; and thou art the sister{H269} of thy sisters{H269}, which lothed{H1602}{(H8804)} their husbands{H582} and their children{H1121}: your mother{H517} was an Hittite{H2850}, and your father{H1} an Amorite{H567}. 46 And thine elder{H1419} sister{H269} is Samaria{H8111}, she and her daughters{H1323} that dwell{H3427}{(H8802)} at thy left hand{H8040}: and thy younger{H6996} sister{H269}, that dwelleth{H3427}{(H8802)} at thy right hand{H3225}, is Sodom{H5467} and her daughters{H1323}. 47 Yet hast thou not walked{H1980}{(H8804)} after their ways{H1870}, nor done{H6213}{(H8804)} after their abominations{H8441}: but, as if that were a very{H6985} little{H4592}{H6962}{(H8804)} thing, thou wast corrupted{H7843}{(H8686)} more than they{H2004} in all thy ways{H1870}. 48 As I live{H2416}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}, Sodom{H5467} thy sister{H269} hath not done{H6213}{(H8804)}, she nor her daughters{H1323}, as thou hast done{H6213}{(H8804)}, thou and thy daughters{H1323}. 49 Behold, this was the iniquity{H5771} of thy sister{H269} Sodom{H5467}, pride{H1347}, fulness{H7653} of bread{H3899}, and abundance{H7962} of idleness{H8252}{(H8687)} was in her and in her daughters{H1323}, neither did she strengthen{H2388}{(H8689)} the hand{H3027} of the poor{H6041} and needy{H34}. 50 And they were haughty{H1361}{(H8799)}, and committed{H6213}{(H8799)} abomination{H8441} before{H6440} me: therefore I took them away{H5493}{(H8686)} as I saw{H7200}{(H8804)} good. 51 Neither hath Samaria{H8111} committed{H2398}{(H8804)} half{H2677} of thy sins{H2403}; but thou hast multiplied{H7235}{(H8686)} thine abominations{H8441} more than they{H2007}, and hast justified{H6663}{(H8762)} thy sisters{H269} in all thine abominations{H8441} which thou hast done{H6213}{(H8804)}. 52 Thou also, which hast judged{H6419}{(H8765)} thy sisters{H269}, bear{H5375}{(H8798)} thine own shame{H3639} for thy sins{H2403} that thou hast committed more abominable{H8581}{(H8689)} than they{H2004}: they are more righteous{H6663}{(H8799)} than thou: yea, be thou confounded{H954}{(H8798)} also, and bear{H5375}{(H8798)} thy shame{H3639}, in that thou hast justified{H6663}{(H8763)} thy sisters{H269}. 53 When I shall bring again{H7725}{(H8804)} their captivity{H7622}{(H8675)}{H7622}, the captivity{H7622}{(H8675)}{H7622} of Sodom{H5467} and her daughters{H1323}, and the captivity{H7622}{(H8676)}{H7622} of Samaria{H8111} and her daughters{H1323}, then will I bring again the captivity{H7622}{(H8675)}{H7622} of thy captives{H7622} in the midst{H8432} of them: 54 That thou mayest bear{H5375}{(H8799)} thine own shame{H3639}, and mayest be confounded{H3637}{(H8738)} in all that thou hast done{H6213}{(H8804)}, in that thou art a comfort{H5162}{(H8763)} unto them. 55 When thy sisters{H269}, Sodom{H5467} and her daughters{H1323}, shall return{H7725}{(H8799)} to their former estate{H6927}, and Samaria{H8111} and her daughters{H1323} shall return{H7725}{(H8799)} to their former estate{H6927}, then thou and thy daughters{H1323} shall return{H7725}{(H8799)} to your former estate{H6927}. 56 For thy sister{H269} Sodom{H5467} was not mentioned{H8052} by thy mouth{H6310} in the day{H3117} of thy pride{H1347}, 57 Before thy wickedness{H7451} was discovered{H1540}{(H8735)}, as at the time{H6256} of thy reproach{H2781} of the daughters{H1323} of Syria{H758}, and all that are round about{H5439} her, the daughters{H1323} of the Philistines{H6430}, which despise{H7590}{(H8801)} thee round about{H5439}. 58 Thou hast borne{H5375}{(H8804)} thy lewdness{H2154} and thine abominations{H8441}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068}. 59 For thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}; I will even deal{H6213}{(H8804)} with thee as thou hast done{H6213}{(H8804)}, which hast despised{H959}{(H8804)} the oath{H423} in breaking{H6565}{(H8687)} the covenant{H1285}. 60 Nevertheless I will remember{H2142}{(H8804)} my covenant{H1285} with thee in the days{H3117} of thy youth{H5271}, and I will establish{H6965}{(H8689)} unto thee an everlasting{H5769} covenant{H1285}. 61 Then thou shalt remember{H2142}{(H8804)} thy ways{H1870}, and be ashamed{H3637}{(H8738)}, when thou shalt receive{H3947}{(H8800)} thy sisters{H269}, thine elder{H1419} and thy younger{H6996}: and I will give{H5414}{(H8804)} them unto thee for daughters{H1323}, but not by thy covenant{H1285}. 62 And I will establish{H6965}{(H8689)} my covenant{H1285} with thee; and thou shalt know{H3045}{(H8804)} that I am the LORD{H3068}: 63 That thou mayest remember{H2142}{(H8799)}, and be confounded{H954}{(H8804)}, and never open{H6610} thy mouth{H6310} any more because{H6440} of thy shame{H3639}, when I am pacified{H3722}{(H8763)} toward thee for all that thou hast done{H6213}{(H8804)}, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}.
- Ezek 22:1-9 : 1 Moreover the word{H1697} of the LORD{H3068} came unto me, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, 2 Now, thou son{H1121} of man{H120}, wilt thou judge{H8199}{(H8799)}, wilt thou judge{H8199}{(H8799)} the bloody{H1818} city{H5892}? yea, thou shalt shew{H3045}{(H8689)} her all her abominations{H8441}. 3 Then say{H559}{(H8804)} thou, Thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}, The city{H5892} sheddeth{H8210}{(H8802)} blood{H1818} in the midst{H8432} of it, that her time{H6256} may come{H935}{(H8800)}, and maketh{H6213}{(H8804)} idols{H1544} against herself to defile{H2930}{(H8800)} herself. 4 Thou art become guilty{H816}{(H8804)} in thy blood{H1818} that thou hast shed{H8210}{(H8804)}; and hast defiled{H2930}{(H8804)} thyself in thine idols{H1544} which thou hast made{H6213}{(H8804)}; and thou hast caused thy days{H3117} to draw near{H7126}{(H8686)}, and art come{H935}{(H8799)} even unto thy years{H8141}: therefore have I made{H5414}{(H8804)} thee a reproach{H2781} unto the heathen{H1471}, and a mocking{H7048} to all countries{H776}. 5 Those that be near{H7138}, and those that be far{H7350} from thee, shall mock{H7046}{(H8691)} thee, which art infamous{H2931}{H8034} and much{H7227} vexed{H4103}. 6 Behold, the princes{H5387} of Israel{H3478}, every one{H376} were in thee to their power{H2220} to shed{H8210}{(H8800)} blood{H1818}. 7 In thee have they set light{H7043}{(H8689)} by father{H1} and mother{H517}: in the midst{H8432} of thee have they dealt{H6213}{(H8804)} by oppression{H6233} with the stranger{H1616}: in thee have they vexed{H3238}{(H8689)} the fatherless{H3490} and the widow{H490}. 8 Thou hast despised{H959}{(H8804)} mine holy things{H6944}, and hast profaned{H2490}{(H8765)} my sabbaths{H7676}. 9 In thee are men{H582} that carry tales{H7400} to shed{H8210}{(H8800)} blood{H1818}: and in thee they eat{H398}{(H8804)} upon the mountains{H2022}: in the midst{H8432} of thee they commit{H6213}{(H8804)} lewdness{H2154}. 10 In thee have they discovered{H1540}{(H8765)} their fathers{H1}' nakedness{H6172}: in thee have they humbled{H6031}{(H8765)} her that was set apart{H5079} for pollution{H2931}. 11 And one{H376} hath committed{H6213}{(H8804)} abomination{H8441} with his neighbour's{H7453} wife{H802}; and another{H376} hath lewdly{H2154} defiled{H2930}{(H8765)} his daughter in law{H3618}; and another{H376} in thee hath humbled{H6031}{(H8765)} his sister{H269}, his father's{H1} daughter{H1323}. 12 In thee have they taken{H3947}{(H8804)} gifts{H7810} to shed{H8210}{(H8800)} blood{H1818}; thou hast taken{H3947}{(H8804)} usury{H5392} and increase{H8636}, and thou hast greedily gained{H1214}{(H8762)} of thy neighbours{H7453} by extortion{H6233}, and hast forgotten{H7911}{(H8804)} me, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}. 13 Behold, therefore I have smitten{H5221}{(H8689)} mine hand{H3709} at thy dishonest gain{H1215} which thou hast made{H6213}{(H8804)}, and at thy blood{H1818} which hath been in the midst{H8432} of thee. 14 Can thine heart{H3820} endure{H5975}{(H8799)}, or can thine hands{H3027} be strong{H2388}{(H8799)}, in the days{H3117} that I shall deal{H6213}{(H8802)} with thee? I the LORD{H3068} have spoken{H1696}{(H8765)} it, and will do{H6213}{(H8804)} it. 15 And I will scatter{H6327}{(H8689)} thee among the heathen{H1471}, and disperse{H2219}{(H8765)} thee in the countries{H776}, and will consume{H8552}{(H8689)} thy filthiness{H2932} out of thee. 16 And thou shalt take thine inheritance{H2490}{(H8738)}{(H8676)}{H5157}{(H8765)} in thyself in the sight{H5869} of the heathen{H1471}, and thou shalt know{H3045}{(H8804)} that I am the LORD{H3068}. 17 And the word{H1697} of the LORD{H3068} came unto me, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, 18 Son{H1121} of man{H120}, the house{H1004} of Israel{H3478} is to me become dross{H5509}: all they are brass{H5178}, and tin{H913}, and iron{H1270}, and lead{H5777}, in the midst{H8432} of the furnace{H3564}; they are even the dross{H5509} of silver{H3701}. 19 Therefore thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the Lord{H136} GOD{H3069}; Because ye are all become dross{H5509}, behold, therefore I will gather{H6908}{(H8802)} you into the midst{H8432} of Jerusalem{H3389}. 20 As they gather{H6910} silver{H3701}, and brass{H5178}, and iron{H1270}, and lead{H5777}, and tin{H913}, into the midst{H8432} of the furnace{H3564}, to blow{H5301}{(H8800)} the fire{H784} upon it, to melt{H5413}{(H8687)} it; so will I gather{H6908}{(H8799)} you in mine anger{H639} and in my fury{H2534}, and I will leave{H3240}{(H8689)} you there, and melt{H5413}{(H8689)} you. 21 Yea, I will gather{H3664}{(H8765)} you, and blow{H5301}{(H8804)} upon you in the fire{H784} of my wrath{H5678}, and ye shall be melted{H5413}{(H8738)} in the midst{H8432} thereof. 22 As silver{H3701} is melted{H2046} in the midst{H8432} of the furnace{H3564}, so shall ye be melted{H5413}{(H8714)} in the midst{H8432} thereof; and ye shall know{H3045}{(H8804)} that I the LORD{H3068} have poured out{H8210}{(H8804)} my fury{H2534} upon you. 23 And the word{H1697} of the LORD{H3068} came unto me, saying{H559}{(H8800)},
