God Has Ezekiel Prophesy to the Mountains of Israel

Ezekiel 36:1-38            The Book of Ezekiel [in Smaller Chunks]

You, Son of man, also prophesy to the mountains of Israel & say, You, mountains of Israel, hear the Word of the Lord. [Ezekiel 6:3-5 And say, You, mountains of Israel, hear the Word of the Lord. The Lord God says [this] to the mountains; hills; rivers; & valleys, [Watch,] I, even I, will bring a sword upon you & I will destroy your high places.

And your altars shall be desolate & your images shall be broken. And I will [throw] down your slain men [in front of] your idols. And I will lay the dead [corpses] of the children [people] of Israel [in front of] their idols. And I will scatter your bones [all around] your altars.]

The Lord God says [this;] Because the enemy has said against you, Aha, even the ancient high places are [our possession.] [Ezekiel 25:3-4 And say to the Ammonites, Hear the Word of the Lord God. The Lord God says [this;] Because you said, Aha, against: My sanctuary when it was [defiled;] the land of Israel, when it was desolate, & the house of Judah, when it went into captivity.

Therefore, [look,] I will deliver you to the men of the East for a possession. And they shall set their palaces [within] you & make their dwellings in you, they shall eat your fruit & drink your milk.]

Therefore, prophesy & say, The Lord God Says [this;] Because you are [captured by] the [mouths] of talkers & [have a bad reputation with] many of the people, they have made you desolate & swallowed you up on every side, [so] you might be a possession to the [rest] of the heathen.

Therefore, you mountains of Israel, hear the Word of the Lord God. The Lord God says [this] to the mountains; hills; rivers; valleys; desolate [wastelands;] & the [abandoned] cities, which became [plunder] & [mocked by] the [rest] of the heathen that are [all around there.]

Therefore, The Lord God says [this;] Surely, I have spoken in the fire of My jealousy against the [rest] of the heathen & all [of] Idumea, [a.k.a. Edom, who] have [assigned] My land [as] their possession, with all the joy of their [hearts] & [spiteful] minds, to cast it out for [plunder.]

[Ezekiel 35:10-11 Because you [have] said, These 2 nations & these 2 countries shall be mine & we shall possess it, [even though] the Lord was there. Therefore, The Lord God says, As I Live, I will even do according to your anger & your envy which you [have delivered from] your hatred against them. And when I have judged you, I will make Myself known among them.]

Therefore, prophesy [about] the land of Israel & say to the mountains; hills; rivers; & valleys; The Lord God says [this; See,] I have spoken in My jealousy & in My fury, because you have [carried] the shame of the heathen. [Ezekiel 34:29 And I will raise up a plant of [honor] for them & they shall no [longer] be consumed [by] hunger in the land, [or] bear the shame of the heathen anymore.]

Therefore, the Lord God says [this;] I have lifted up [My] hand & surely, the heathen, [who] are [all around] you, shall bear their shame. But you, O mountains of Israel, shall [sprout] out your branches & [produce] your fruit [for] My people of Israel. For they are [about] to come.

For, [see,] I Am for you & I will [return] to you & you shall be tilled, [a.k.a. cultivated,] & sown, [a.k.a. planted.] And I will multiply men upon you, all the house of Israel, even all of it. And the cities shall be inhabited & the [wastelands] shall be [rebuilt.]

[Isaiah 61:4 And they shall [rebuild] the old [ruins;] they shall raise up the [previous] desolations; & they shall repair the [deserted] cities & the desolations of many generations.]

And I will multiply man & [animals] upon you & they shall increase & [produce] fruit. And I will [restore] you, [according to] your [previous state] & will do better [for] you than at your beginning. And you shall know that I Am the Lord.

[Isaiah 43:5-6 [Don't] fear: for I Am with you. I will bring your [descendants] from the East & gather you from the West. I will say to the North, Give up; & to the South, [Don't withhold.] Bring My sons from far [away] & My daughters from the ends of the earth.]

[Yes,] I will cause men to walk upon you, even My people, Israel. And they shall possess you & you shall be their inheritance. And you shall no [longer deprive] them of men, [from now on.] The Lord God says [this;] Because they say to you, Your land [devoured] up men & has [deprived] your nations [of loved ones.]

Therefore, you shall no [longer] devour men & neither bereave your nations anymore, says the Lord God. [Numbers 32:13 And the Lord's anger [grew] against Israel, [who] had done evil in the sight of the Lord. And He made them wander in the wilderness 40 years, until the generation was consumed.]

Neither will I cause men [within] you, to hear the shame of the heathen anymore. Neither shall you [carry the disgrace] of the people anymore. Neither shall  you [make] your nations to [be overthrown] anymore, says the Lord God.

[Isaiah 60:14 Also, the sons of [those, who] afflicted you shall come bending to you & all [those, who] despised you shall bow themselves down to the soles of your feet. And they shall call you, The City of The Lord, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.]

[Also,] the Word of the Lord came to me, saying, Son of man, when the house of Israel [lived] in their own land, they defiled by their own [ways & actions.] Their [ways were] before Me, [like] the uncleanness of a woman removed [during her monthly cycle.]

[For this reason,] I poured [out] My fury upon them for the blood that they had shed upon the land & for their idols, [with which] they had [defiled] it. [Ezekiel 23:37-39 They have committed adultery & blood is [on] their hands. And they have committed adultery with their idols.

And they have also caused their sons, whom they [bore] to Me, to pass through the fire, to devour them, for [idols.] [Additionally,] they have done this to Me. They have defiled My sanctuary [on] the same day & have profaned My Sabbaths.

For when they had [sacrificed] their children to their idols, then they came the same day into My sanctuary to profane it. And, [look,] they have done [this] in the midst of [My] house.]

And I scattered them among the heathen & they were [distributed throughout] the countries. I judged them according to their [ways & actions.] [Revelation 22:12-15 *And, [watch,] I come quickly; & My reward is with Me & shall be to give every man according as his [deeds.] I Am [the] Alpha & [the] Omega; the Beginning & the End; the First & the Last.

Blessed are [those who] do His commandments, [so] that they may have right to the Tree of Life & may enter in through the gates into the city. For [outside] are: dogs; sorcerers; [sexual traffickers;] murderers; idolaters; & [whoever] loves & makes [up lies.]

And [where] they went & when they entered [among] the heathen, they profaned My Holy Name, when they said to them, These are the people of the Lord & [they] [have] gone out [from] His land.

[Ezekiel 20:30-31 For when you offer your gifts & make your sons pass through the fire, you [defile] yourselves with all your idols, even [until] this day. And shall I be [inquired] of by you, O house of Israel?

The Lord God says, As I Live, I won't be [inquired] of by you. And [what] comes into your mind, shall not be at all, [when] you say, We will be [like] the heathen, [like] the families of the countries, to serve wood & stone.]

But I had pity for [My] Holy Name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the heathen [where] they went. Therefore The Lord God says [this;] to the house of Israel, I don't [do] this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for [My] Holy Name's sake, [that] you have [defiled] among the heathen, [where] you went.

And I will sanctify My Great Name which you have profaned among the heathen, in the midst of them. The Lord God says, And the heathen shall know that I Am the Lord, when I shall be sanctified in you before their eyes. For I will take you from among the heathen & gather you out of all countries & will bring you into your own land.

[Ezekiel 37:23 And neither shall they defile themselves anymore with their: idols; their detestable things, or with any of their [sins,] in [which] they have sinned. But I will save them [from the places they dwelled] & will cleanse them: so they [are] My people & I will be their God.]

Then, I will sprinkle clean water upon you & you shall be [cleansed] from all your filthiness & I will cleanse you from your idols. [Isaiah 44:22 I have blotted out all your transgressions [like] a thick cloud [blocks the sky] & your sins, [like] a cloud. Return to Me; for I have Redeemed you.]

Also, I will give you a new heart & I will put a new spirit within you. And I will take away the stony heart [from] your flesh, & I will give you a heart of flesh. [Jeremiah 32:39 And I will give them one heart & one [path, so] that they may fear [respect] Me forever, for [their] good & [for] their children after them.]

And I will put My Spirit within you & cause you to [follow] in My [mandates.] And you shall keep My judgments & do them. And you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your [forefathers] & you shall be My people & I will be your God.

I will also save you from alI your uncleanness. And I will call for the [rain] & will increase your [grain] & [won't make any] famine upon you. And I will multiply the fruit of the tree & the [increased produce] of the field, [so] that you shall no [longer] receive famine [or disgrace] among the heathen.

[Ezekiel 34:27  And the tree of the field shall yield [its] fruit & the earth shall yield [its increased produce.] And they shall be safe in their land & shall know that I Am the Lord, when I have broken the bands of their yoke, [a.k.a. oppression,] & delivered them out of the hand of those, [who made them serve them.]

Then, you shall remember your own evil: ways & [actions] that weren't good. And you shall loathe yourselves in your own sight for your [sins] & your abominations.

[Ezekiel 6:9 And [those, who] escape of you shall remember Me among the nations, [where] they shall be carried [captive,] because I Am broken with your [unfaithful adulterous] heart, which has departed from Me & their eyes which go after their idols, [like] [an unfaithful harlot.] And they shall loathe themselves for [all] the [evil that] they have committed [by] all their abominations.]

The Lord God says, I [don't] do this for your sakes. [Let] it be known to you & be ashamed & [ashamed] for your own ways, O house of Israel. [Deuteronomy 9:5 The Lord your God [drives] them out from before you, & you go to possess their land, not for your righteousness, or your [upright] heart, but [because of] the wickedness of these nations. [So, that] He may [accomplish] the Word [that] the Lord [swore] to your [forefathers.]

The Lord God says [this; On] the day that I have cleansed you from all your [sins,] I will also cause you to dwell in the cities & the [ruins] shall be [rebuilt.] And the desolate land shall be tilled, [since] it lay [empty] in the sight of all [who] passed by [it.]

And they shall say, This land that was desolate, & [has] become like the Garden of Eden. And the desolate [wastelands] & ruined cities [have] become fenced & are [lived in.]

Then, the heathen, [who remain all around] you, shall know that I, the Lord, [rebuilt] the ruined places & [planted what] was desolate. I, the Lord, have spoken it & will do it. The Lord God says [this;] I will [still]  be [inquired] of by the house of Israel, to do it for them.

I will increase [their] men, like a flock. [Like] a holy flock, the flock of Jerusalem, in her solemn feasts, so shall the [ruined] cities be filled with flocks of men & they shall know that I Am the Lord.

Ezekiel 35:1-15 The Lord will Stretch Out His Hand Against Mount Seir

 

The Lord will Stretch Out His Hand Against Mount Seir

Ezekiel 35:1-15             The Book of Ezekiel [in Smaller Chunks]

[Also,] the Word of the Lord came to me, saying, Son of man, [turn] your face against Mount Seir & prophesy against it. And say to it, The Lord God says [this; Look,] O Mount Seir, I Am against you & I will stretch out My hand against you & I will make you [very] desolate.

[Ezekiel 6:13-14 Then, you shall know that I Am the Lord, when their slain men shall be among their idols [all around] their altars & upon: every high hill; all the tops of the mountains; under every green tree; under every thick oak, the place where they offer sweet [incense] to all their idols.

So, I will stretch out My hand upon them & make the land desolate. [Yes,] more desolate than in all their habitations, & the wilderness toward Diblath. And they shall know that I Am the Lord.]

I will [make] your cities [wastelands.] And you shall be desolate & you shall know that I AM the Lord. [It's] because you [have] a [continual] hatred & [have] shed the blood of the children [people] of Israel, by the force of the sword, [during] the time of their calamity, in the time, [when] their [sinfulness] had [ended.]

[Ezekiel 25:12 The Lord God says [this;] Because [of] [what] Edom has [done] by taking vengeance against the house of Judah & [avenged] himself upon them & has greatly offended.]

The Lord God says, Therefore, as I Live, I will prepare [bloodshed for] you & blood shall pursue you, [since] you haven't hated [bloodshed,] even [bloodshed] shall pursue you.

[Psalm 106:35-38 They didn't destroy the nations, [about] whom the Lord commanded them. But were [mixed] among the heathen & learned their works. And they served their idols, which were a snare to them.

[Yes,] they sacrificed their sons & daughters to [demons,] & shed [the] blood [of the] innocent, even the blood of their sons & daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan & the land was [defiled] with blood.]

[Like this,] I will Make Mount Seir [very] desolate & cut it off from him, [who leaves] & him, [who] returns. [Judges 2:16-17 [Still] the Lord raised up judges, [who] delivered them out of the hand of those, [who plundered] them.

And [still,] they wouldn't [pay attention] to the judges, but they went [unfaithfully] after other gods & bowed themselves to them. They quickly turned, [a.k.a. gone astray,] out of the [path] their [forefathers followed,] [of] obeying the [Lord's] commandments; but they didn't [do] so.]

And they shall fall, [who] are slain by the sword & I will fill his mountains; hills; valleys & rivers, with his slain men. I will make you [continually desolate.] And your cities shall not return & you shall know that I Am the Lord.

[Ezekiel 25:13 Therefore, The Lord God says [this;] I will also stretch out [My] hand upon Edom & will cut off man & [animal] from it. And I will make it desolate from Teman & [those from] Dedan shall fall by the sword.]

Because you have said, These 2 nations & these 2 countries shall be mine, & we will possess [them even though,] the Lord was there. [Ezekiel 48:35  [All around] [the inheritance] it was 18,000 [cubits.] And the name of the city from that day shall be: The Lord is There.]

Therefore, The Lord God says, As I Live, I will even do according to your anger & your envy, [that] you [have delivered from] your hatred against them. And when I have judged you, I will make myself known among them.

And you shall know that I Am the Lord & that I have heard all your blasphemies, [that] you have spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, They are [now] desolate  & they are given [to] us to consume.

[Zephaniah 2:8-9 I have heard the [ridicule] of Moab & the [insults] of the children [people] of Ammon, [by which] they have [disgraced] My people & have magnified themselves against their borders.

The Lord of Hosts, The God of Israel, says this, Therefore, as I Live, surely, Moab shall be [like] Sodom, & the children [people] of Ammon, [like] Gomorrah, even the [multiplying of sticker bushes;] salt pits & [will be] [continually desolate.] The [rest] of My people: shall [plunder] them & shall possess them.]

[Like this,] you have boasted against me, with your mouth & have multiplied your words against Me, & I have heard them. The Lord God says [this;] I will make you desolate, [while] the whole earth rejoices.

[Like] you [rejoiced] at the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was desolate, so I do [the same] to you. You shall be desolate, O Mount Seir & all [of] Idumea, [a.k.a. Edom,] even all of it. And they shall know that I Am the Lord.

[Micah 4:11-12 Now, many nations have also gathered against you, that say, Let her be defiled & let our eye look upon Zion [when it happens.] But they [don't] know the thoughts of the Lord & neither [do] they understand His [advice.] For He shall gather them [like] the [wheat] sheaves [onto] the floor.]

Ezekiel 34:1-31 The Shepherds of Israel Don't Take Care of Their Flock

 

The Shepherds of Israel Don't Take Care of Their Flock

Ezekiel 34:1-31             The Book of Ezekiel [in Smaller Chunks]

And the Word of the Lord came to me, saying, Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel & say to them, The Lord God says [this;] to the shepherds; We be to the shepherds of Israel, [who] feed themselves! Shouldn't the shepherds feed the flocks?

[Jeremiah 23:1-2 The Lord says, Woe be to the pastors, [who] destroy & scatter the sheep of My pasture! Therefore, the Lord God of Israel says [this;] against the pastors, [who] feed My people. You have scattered My flock & driven them away & haven't visited them. [Watch,] I will visit you [with] the evil of your [actions,] says the Lord.]

You eat the fat & you clothe [yourselves] with the wool. You kill [those] that are fed, but you [don't] feed the flock. You haven't strengthened the diseased, & neither have you healed [those, that] were sick. Neither have you [bandaged] up [what] was broken.

Neither have you brought again, [those that] were driven away. Neither have you [searched for those that were] lost. But you have ruled them with force & cruelty.

[Luke 15:4-7 What man of you, having 100 sheep & if he [loses] 1 of them, doesn't leave the 99 in the wilderness & go after that which is lost, until he [finds] it? And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing.

And when he comes home, he calls together his friends & neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost. I say to you, that [the same] joy shall be in heaven over 1 sinner, [who] repents, more than over 99 just [people, who] need no repentance.]

And they were scattered, because there was no shepherd & they became meat [for] all the [wild animals] of the field, when they were scattered. [Mark 6:34 And Jesus, when He came out, saw [many] people & was moved with compassion toward them, because they were [like] sheep, not having a shepherd. And He began to teach them many things.]

My sheep wandered through all the mountains & upon every high hill. [Yes,] My flock was scattered upon all the [surface] of the earth & [no one searched,] or [looked for] them. [Isaiah 53:5-7 But He was wounded for our [sins] & He was bruised for our iniquities.

The [discipline for] our peace was upon Him & with His stripes [of the whip,] we are healed. All we, like sheep, have gone astray. Everyone of [us,] have turned to his own way. And the Lord has laid on Him, the iniquity of us all.

He was oppressed & He was afflicted, [still] He didn't open His mouth. He is brought [like] a lamb to the slaughter & [like] a sheep is [mute] before her shearers, so He [doesn't] open His mouth.]

Therefore, you shepherds, hear the Word of the Lord. The Lord God says, As I Live, surely, because My flock became a prey & became meat [for] every [wild animal] of the field, because there was no shepherd, & neither did My shepherds search for My flock.

But the shepherds fed themselves & [didn't feed] My flock. Therefore, O you shepherds, hear the Word of the Lord. The Lord God says [this; Watch,] I Am against the shepherds & I will require My flock at their hand & cause them to [stop] from feeding the flock. ]

Neither shall the shepherds feed themselves anymore. For I will deliver My flock from their mouth, [so] that they may not be meat for them. [Jeremiah 23:21-22 I haven't sent these prophets, & [still] they ran.

I haven't spoken to them, & [still] they prophesied. But if they stood in My counsel & had caused My people to hear My Words, then they [could] have turned them from their evil [ways] & evil [actions.

For The Lord God says [this; Look,] I, even I, will both search [for] My sheep & seek them out. [Like] a Shepherd, [Who,] seeks out His sheep [on] the day that He is among His sheep that are scattered. So, I will seek out My sheep & will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered [on] the cloudy & dark day.

[Jeremiah 23:3 And I will gather the [rest] of My flock out of all countries [where] I have driven them, & will bring them again to their [flocks.] And they shall be fruitful & increase.]

And I will bring them out from the people & gather them from the countries & I will bring them to their own land & feed them upon the mountains of Israel, by the rivers & all the inhabited places of the country.

[Jeremiah 23:4 And I will set up shepherds over them, [who] shall feed them. And they shall no [longer] fear, nor be [discouraged.] Neither shall they be lacking [what is needed,] says the Lord.]

I will feed them in a good pasture & their [flock] shall be upon the high mountains of Israel. They shall lie there in a good [flock] & they shall feed upon the mountains of Israel, in a [rich] pasture. I will feed My flock & I will [make] them to lie down, says the Lord God.

[John 10:9-11 I Am the Door. If any man [enters] in [through] Me, he shall be saved & shall go in & out, & find pasture. The thief [only] comes to steal; kill; & to destroy. I [have] come [so] that they might have life & that they may have it more abundantly. I Am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd gives His life for the sheep.]

I will seek, [what] was lost & bring again, [what] was driven away, & will [bandage] up, [what] was broken & will strengthen, [those] which [are] sick. But I will destroy the fat & the strong. [Deuteronomy 32:15 But Jehurun, [a.k.a. Israel, grew] fat, [a.k.a. well-fed & complacent,] & kicked, [a.k.a. rebelled.]

You [have grown] fat & you are thick & covered with fatness. Then he, [a.k.a. Israelites, abandoned] God, [Who] made him, & lightly esteemed, [a.k.a. didn't respect,] the Rock of his Salvation.]

And I will feed them with [justice.] [Matthew 18:11 For the Son of Man, [has] come to save that which was lost.]

The Lord God says, [this;] And for you, O My flock, [watch,] I judge between cattle, [a.k.a. livestock] & cattle, and between the rams & the [male] goats. [Matthew 25:31-34 When the Son of Man shall come in His glory & the Holy Angels with Him, then He shall sit upon the throne of His glory. And before Him shall be gathered all nations.

And He shall separate them one from another, [like] a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats. And He shall set the sheep on His right hand [side] & the goats on the left. Then, the King shall say to [those] on His right hand, Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.]

It [may] seem a small thing to you to have eaten up the good pasture, but must you [trample] down the [rest] of your pastures with your feet? And to [those who] have drunk of the deep waters, must you foul [up, a.k.a. muddy] the [remaining] [waters] with your feet?

And as for My flock, they eat [what] you have [trampled] down with your feet & they drink, [what] you have [muddied] with your feet. Therefore, The Lord God says [this;] to them, [Look,] I, even I, will judge between the fat cattle and between the [thin] cattle.

You have scattered them abroad, because you have [butted] with [your] side & with [your] shoulder & pushed all the diseased with your horns. Therefore, I will save My flock & they shall no [longer] be a prey. And I will judge between cattle & cattle.

[Jeremiah 23:5-8 *The Lord says, [Watch,] the days come, that I will raise to David a righteous Branch & a King shall [rule] & prosper & shall [carry out] judgment & justice [on] the earth. *In His days, Judah shall be saved & Israel shall dwell safely.

And this is His Name, [by which] He shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS. Therefore, [look,] the days come, says the Lord, that they shall no [longer] say, The Lord lives, [Who] brought up the children [people] of Israel out of the land of Egypt.

But, The Lord lives, [Who] brought up & [Who] led the [descendants] of the house of Israel out of the North country & from all countries [where] I had driven them. And they shall dwell in their own land.]

And I will set up one shepherd over them, & he shall feed them, even My servant, David. He shall feed them & he shall be their shepherd. [Hebrews 13:20-21 Now, the God of Peace, [Who] brought our Lord Jesus, again from the dead, that Great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant [contract.]

Make [yourselves perfected] in every good work, to do His will, working in you, [what] is well-pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to Whom be glory forever & ever. Amen.]

And I, the Lord, will be their God & My servant, David, [will be] a prince among them. I, the Lord, have spoken it. And I will make with them a covenant [contract] of peace & will cause the [wild animals] to [stop] out of the land. And they shall dwell safely in the wilderness & they shall sleep in the woods.

[Ezekiel 37:26 [Additionally,] I will make a covenant of peace with them & it shall be an everlasting covenant with them. And I will place them & multiply them & will [put] My sanctuary in the midst of them forever more.]

And I will make them & all the places [all around] My hill, a blessing. And I will cause the [rain] showers to come down in [its] season & showers of [blessings,] shall be there. [Leviticus 26:1-4 You shall [not] make [yourselves any] idols, nor [carved images.]

Neither [shall] you [put] up a standing image & neither shall you [put] up any image of stone in your land, to bow down to it. For I Am the Lord your God. You shall keep My Sabbaths & [respect] My sanctuary.

I Am the Lord. If you [follow] in My [mandates,] & keep My commandments & do them; then I will give you rain in due season & the land shall yield her [increased produce,] & the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.]

And the tree of the field shall yield [its] fruit & the earth shall yield [its increased produce.] And they shall be safe in their land & shall know that I Am the Lord, when I have broken bands of their yoke, [a.k.a. oppression,] & delivered them out of the hand, [a.k.a. under the control,] of those, [who] [made them] serve [them.]

[Isaiah 4:2 [On] that day, the Branch of the Lord shall be beautiful & glorious. And the fruit of the earth shall be excellent & [pretty] for [those,] of Israel, [who] have escaped.]

And they shall no [longer] be a prey to the heathen & neither shall the [wild animals] of the land devour them. But they shall dwell safely & [no one] shall make them afraid.

And I will raise a plant of [honor] for them & they shall no [longer] be consumed with hunger in the land, & neither [carry] the shame of the heathen anymore. [Isaiah 11:1-4 *And there shall come [out] a rod out of the stem of Jesse & a Branch shall grow out of his roots.

*And the Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him: the Spirit of wisdom & understanding; the Spirit of counsel & [strength;] & the Spirit of knowledge & the fear [respect] of the Lord, and shall make Him of quick understanding in the fear [respect] of the Lord.

And He shall not judge, [according to what] His eyes [see,] & neither [reprimand according to what] His ears [ear.] But He shall judge the poor with righteousness & [repay] the meek of the earth with equity. And He shall [strike] the earth with the rod [from] His mouth. And with the breath of His lips, He shall slay the wicked.]

[Like this,] they shall know that I, the Lord, their God, Am with them & that they, even the house of Israel, are My people, says the Lord God. And you, My flock, the flock of My pasture, are men, & I Am your God, says the Lord God.
