from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.
16
By the multitude of thy
merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will
cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from
the midst of the stones of fire.
17
Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted
thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings,
that they may behold thee.
18
Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities,
by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall
devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.
19
All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and
never
shalt
thou
be
any more.
20
Again the word of the L
ORD
came unto me, saying,
21
Son of man, set thy face against Zidon,
and prophesy against it,
22
And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I
am
against thee, O Zidon;
and I will be glorified in the midst of thee: and they shall know that I
am
the L
ORD
, when I shall
have executed judgments in her, and shall be sanctified in her.
23
For I will send into her pestilence,
and blood into her street; and the wounded shall be judged in the midst of her by the sword upon
her on every side; and they shall know that I
am
the L
ORD
.
24
And there shall be no more a pricking
brier unto the house of Israel, nor
any
grieving thorn of all
that are
round about them, that despised
them; and they shall know that I
am
the Lord GOD.
25
Thus saith the Lord GOD; When I shall have
gathered the house of Israel from the people among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified
in them in the sight of the heathen, then shall they dwell in their land that I have given to my servant
Jacob.
26
And they shall dwell safely therein, and shall build houses, and plant vineyards; yea, they
shall dwell with confidence, when I have executed judgments upon all those that despise them
round about them; and they shall know that I
am
the L
ORD
their God.
CHAPTER 29
In the tenth year, in the tenth
month,
in the twelfth
day
of the month, the word of the L
ORD
came
unto me, saying,
2
Son of man, set thy face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against
him, and against all Egypt:
3
Speak, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I
am
against thee,
Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great dragon that lieth in the midst of his rivers, which hath said, My
river
is
mine own, and I have made
it
for myself.
4
But I will put hooks in thy jaws, and I will cause
the fish of thy rivers to stick unto thy scales, and I will bring thee up out of the midst of thy rivers,
and all the fish of thy rivers shall stick unto thy scales.
5
And I will leave thee
thrown
into the
wilderness, thee and all the fish of thy rivers: thou shalt fall upon the open fields; thou shalt not be
brought together, nor gathered: I have given thee for meat to the beasts of the field and to the fowls
of the heaven.
6
And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I
am
the L
ORD
, because they have
been a staff of reed to the house of Israel.
7
When they took hold of thee by thy hand, thou didst
