King James Version (KJV) With Strong Codes

1. Then came[H935] certain[H376] of the elders[H4480] [H2205] of Israel[H3478] unto[H413] me, and sat[H3427] before[H6440] me.

2. And the word[H1697] of the LORD[H3068] came[H1961] unto[H413] me, saying,[H559]

3. Son[H1121] of man,[H120] these[H428] men[H376] have set up[H5927] their idols[H1544] in[H5921] their heart,[H3820] and put[H5414] the stumblingblock[H4383] of their iniquity[H5771] before[H5227] their face:[H6440] should I be inquired of at all[H1875] [H1875] by them?

4. Therefore[H3651] speak[H1696] unto them, and say[H559] unto[H413] them, Thus[H3541] saith[H559] the Lord[H136] GOD;[H3069] Every man[H376] [H376] of the house[H4480] [H1004] of Israel[H3478] that[H834] setteth up[H5927] [H853] his idols[H1544] in[H413] his heart,[H3820] and putteth[H7760] the stumblingblock[H4383] of his iniquity[H5771] before[H5227] his face,[H6440] and cometh[H935] to[H413] the prophet;[H5030] I[H589] the LORD[H3068] will answer[H6030] him that cometh[H935] according to the multitude[H7230] of his idols;[H1544]

5. That[H4616] I may take[H8610] [H853] the house[H1004] of Israel[H3478] in their own heart,[H3820] because[H834] they are all[H3605] estranged[H2114] from[H4480] [H5921] me through their idols.[H1544]

6. Therefore[H3651] say[H559] unto[H413] the house[H1004] of Israel,[H3478] Thus[H3541] saith[H559] the Lord[H136] GOD;[H3069] Repent,[H7725] and turn[H7725] yourselves from[H4480] [H5921] your idols;[H1544] and turn away[H7725] your faces[H6440] from[H4480] [H5921] all[H3605] your abominations.[H8441]

7. For[H3588] every one[H376] [H376] of the house[H4480] [H1004] of Israel,[H3478] or of the stranger[H4480] [H1616] that[H834] sojourneth[H1481] in Israel,[H3478] which separateth himself[H5144] from[H4480] [H310] me, and setteth up[H5927] his idols[H1544] in[H413] his heart,[H3820] and putteth[H7760] the stumblingblock[H4383] of his iniquity[H5771] before[H5227] his face,[H6440] and cometh[H935] to[H413] a prophet[H5030] to inquire[H1875] of him concerning me; I[H589] the LORD[H3068] will answer[H6030] him by myself:

8. And I will set[H5414] my face[H6440] against that[H1931] man,[H376] and will make[H7760] him a sign[H226] and a proverb,[H4912] and I will cut him off[H3772] from the midst[H4480] [H8432] of my people;[H5971] and ye shall know[H3045] that[H3588] I[H589] am the LORD.[H3068]

9. And if[H3588] the prophet[H5030] be deceived[H6601] when he hath spoken[H1696] a thing,[H1697] I[H589] the LORD[H3068] have deceived[H6601] [H853] that[H1931] prophet,[H5030] and I will stretch out[H5186] [H853] my hand[H3027] upon[H5921] him, and will destroy[H8045] him from the midst[H4480] [H8432] of my people[H5971] Israel.[H3478]

10. And they shall bear[H5375] the punishment of their iniquity:[H5771] the punishment[H5771] of the prophet[H5030] shall be[H1961] even as the punishment[H5771] of him that seeketh[H1875] unto him;

11. That[H4616] the house[H1004] of Israel[H3478] may go no[H3808] more[H5750] astray[H8582] from[H4480] [H310] me, neither[H3808] be polluted[H2930] any more[H5750] with all[H3605] their transgressions;[H6588] but that they may be[H1961] my people,[H5971] and I[H589] may be[H1961] their God,[H430] saith[H5002] the Lord[H136] GOD.[H3069]

12. The word[H1697] of the LORD[H3068] came[H1961] again to[H413] me, saying,[H559]

13. Son[H1121] of man,[H120] when[H3588] the land[H776] sinneth[H2398] against me by trespassing[H4603] grievously,[H4604] then will I stretch out[H5186] mine hand[H3027] upon[H5921] it, and will break[H7665] the staff[H4294] of the bread[H3899] thereof, and will send[H7971] famine[H7458] upon it, and will cut off[H3772] man[H120] and beast[H929] from[H4480] it:

14. Though these[H428] three[H7969] men,[H376] Noah,[H5146] Daniel,[H1840] and Job,[H347] were[H1961] in[H8432] it, they[H1992] should deliver[H5337] but their own souls[H5315] by their righteousness,[H6666] saith[H5002] the Lord[H136] GOD.[H3069]

15. If[H3863] I cause noisome[H7451] beasts[H2416] to pass[H5674] through the land,[H776] and they spoil[H7921] it, so that it be[H1961] desolate,[H8077] that no man[H4480] [H1097] may pass through[H5674] because[H4480] [H6440] of the beasts: [H2416]

16. Though these[H428] three[H7969] men[H376] were in[H8432] it, as I[H589] live,[H2416] saith[H5002] the Lord[H136] GOD,[H3069] they[H1992] shall deliver[H5337] neither[H518] sons[H1121] nor[H518] daughters;[H1323] they only[H905] shall be delivered,[H5337] but the land[H776] shall be[H1961] desolate.[H8077]

17. Or[H176] if I bring[H935] a sword[H2719] upon[H5921] that[H1931] land,[H776] and say,[H559] Sword,[H2719] go[H5674] through the land;[H776] so that I cut off[H3772] man[H120] and beast[H929] from[H4480] it:

18. Though these[H428] three[H7969] men[H376] were in[H8432] it, as I[H589] live,[H2416] saith[H5002] the Lord[H136] GOD,[H3069] they shall deliver[H5337] neither[H3808] sons[H1121] nor daughters,[H1323] but[H3588] they[H1992] only[H905] shall be delivered themselves.[H5337]

19. Or[H176] if I send[H7971] a pestilence[H1698] into[H413] that[H1931] land,[H776] and pour out[H8210] my fury[H2534] upon[H5921] it in blood,[H1818] to cut off[H3772] from[H4480] it man[H120] and beast: [H929]

20. Though Noah,[H5146] Daniel,[H1840] and Job,[H347] were in[H8432] it, as I[H589] live,[H2416] saith[H5002] the Lord[H136] GOD,[H3069] they[H1992] shall deliver[H5337] neither[H518] son[H1121] nor[H518] daughter;[H1323] they shall but deliver[H5337] their own souls[H5315] by their righteousness.[H6666]

21. For[H3588] thus[H3541] saith[H559] the Lord[H136] GOD;[H3069] How much more[H637] when[H3588] I send[H7971] my four[H702] sore[H7451] judgments[H8201] upon[H413] Jerusalem,[H3389] the sword,[H2719] and the famine,[H7458] and the noisome[H7451] beast,[H2416] and the pestilence,[H1698] to cut off[H3772] from[H4480] it man[H120] and beast?[H929]

22. Yet, behold,[H2009] therein shall be left[H3498] a remnant[H6413] that shall be brought forth,[H3318] both sons[H1121] and daughters:[H1323] behold,[H2009] they shall come forth[H3318] unto[H413] you, and ye shall see[H7200] [H853] their way[H1870] and their doings:[H5949] and ye shall be comforted[H5162] concerning[H5921] the evil[H7451] that[H834] I have brought[H935] upon[H5921] Jerusalem,[H3389] even concerning[H854] all[H3605] that[H834] I have brought[H935] upon[H5921] it.

23. And they shall comfort[H5162] you, when[H3588] ye see[H7200] [H853] their ways[H1870] and their doings:[H5949] and ye shall know[H3045] that[H3588] I have not[H3808] done[H6213] without cause[H2600] [H853] all[H3605] that[H834] I have done[H6213] in it, saith[H5002] the Lord[H136] GOD.[H3069]
