Hello and welcome to
"His Words are Life."
00:00:15.11\00:00:17.52
I'm Kelly Mowrer
and today we'll continue
00:00:17.53\00:00:19.64
reading together
from the Book of Ezekiel.
00:00:19.65\00:00:22.21
But first let's pray together.
00:00:22.22\00:00:24.32
Dear Heavenly Father,
thank You for Your word
00:00:24.33\00:00:28.15
that we can come
apart and be fed by now.
00:00:28.16\00:00:31.75
Please send Your Holy
Spirit to open our hearts
00:00:31.76\00:00:34.80
and to plant these
seeds of the truths
00:00:34.81\00:00:38.26
that we'll hear
during this time,
00:00:38.27\00:00:40.21
so that they will bear
much fruit to Your glory.
00:00:40.22\00:00:42.57
We love You so
much and thank You
00:00:42.58\00:00:43.80
for loving us, amen.
00:00:43.81\00:00:46.22
We're picking up
in Ezekiel Chapter 23,
00:00:46.23\00:00:50.33
starting with verse 28
00:00:50.34\00:00:51.97
and this is the
King James Version.
00:00:51.98\00:00:54.85
"For thus saith
the Lord God, behold,
00:00:54.86\00:00:57.82
I will deliver thee
into the hand of them
00:00:57.83\00:01:00.48
whom thou hatest,
into the hand of them
00:01:00.49\00:01:03.77
from whom thy mind is alienated.
00:01:03.78\00:01:07.23
And they shall deal
with thee hatefully,
00:01:07.24\00:01:09.45
and shall take
away all thy labor,
00:01:09.46\00:01:11.94
and shall leave
thee naked and bare,
00:01:11.95\00:01:14.07
and the
nakedness of thy whoredoms
00:01:14.08\00:01:16.32
shall be discovered,
00:01:16.33\00:01:18.02
both thy lewdness
and thy whoredoms.
00:01:18.03\00:01:20.66
I will do these
things unto thee,
00:01:20.67\00:01:22.55
because thou hast gone a
whoring after the heathen,
00:01:22.56\00:01:26.05
and because thou art
polluted with their idols.
00:01:26.06\00:01:29.80
Thou hast walked in
the way of thy sister,
00:01:29.81\00:01:32.76
therefore will I give
her cup into thine hand.
00:01:32.77\00:01:37.31
Thus saith the Lord God,
00:01:37.32\00:01:38.93
Thou shalt drink
of thy sister's cup
00:01:38.94\00:01:41.26
deep and large,
00:01:41.27\00:01:43.65
thou shalt be laughed to
scorn and had in derision,
00:01:43.66\00:01:47.60
it containeth much.
00:01:47.61\00:01:49.47
Thou shalt be filled
with drunkenness and sorrow,
00:01:49.48\00:01:52.82
with the cup of
astonishment and desolation,
00:01:52.83\00:01:56.27
with the cup of
thy sister Samaria.
00:01:56.28\00:01:59.68
Thou shalt even
drink it and suck it out,
00:01:59.69\00:02:02.29
and thou shalt
break the sherds thereof,
00:02:02.30\00:02:04.31
and pluck off thine own breasts,
00:02:04.32\00:02:05.96
for I have spoken
it, saith the Lord God.
00:02:05.97\00:02:09.20
Therefore thus
saith the Lord God,
00:02:09.21\00:02:11.43
because thou hast forgotten me,
00:02:11.44\00:02:14.61
and cast me behind thy back,
00:02:14.62\00:02:18.14
therefore bear
thou also thy lewdness
00:02:18.15\00:02:21.05
and thy whoredoms.
00:02:21.06\00:02:23.42
The Lord said
moreover unto me, son of man,
00:02:23.43\00:02:27.35
wilt thou judge
Aholah and Aholibah?
00:02:27.36\00:02:31.29
Yea, declare unto
them their abominations.
00:02:31.30\00:02:33.79
That they have
committed adultery,
00:02:33.80\00:02:35.30
and blood is in their hands,
00:02:35.31\00:02:37.35
and with their idols
have they committed adultery,
00:02:37.36\00:02:39.94
and have also caused their sons,
00:02:39.95\00:02:42.35
whom they bare unto me,
00:02:42.36\00:02:43.77
to pass for them
through the fire,
00:02:43.78\00:02:46.51
to devour them.
00:02:46.52\00:02:48.74
Moreover this
they have done unto me,
00:02:48.75\00:02:51.55
they have defiled my sanctuary
00:02:51.56\00:02:54.13
in the same day, and
have profaned my Sabbaths.
00:02:54.14\00:02:58.44
For when they had
slain their children
00:02:58.45\00:03:01.07
to their idols, then
they came the same day
00:03:01.08\00:03:04.39
into my sanctuary to profane it,
00:03:04.40\00:03:07.30
and, lo, thus have they
done in the midst of mine house.
00:03:07.31\00:03:12.48
And furthermore,
that ye have sent for men
00:03:12.49\00:03:15.85
to come from far, unto
whom a messenger was sent,
00:03:15.86\00:03:20.44
and, lo, they came, for
whom thou didst wash thyself,
00:03:20.45\00:03:26.21
paintedst thy eyes,
00:03:26.22\00:03:27.38
and deckedst
thyself with ornaments.
00:03:27.39\00:03:29.29
And satest upon a stately bed,
00:03:29.30\00:03:33.01
and a table prepared before it,
00:03:33.02\00:03:35.04
whereupon thou hast set
mine incense and mine oil.
00:03:35.05\00:03:39.83
And a voice of a
multitude being at ease
00:03:39.84\00:03:42.48
was with her, and with the men
00:03:42.49\00:03:44.83
of the common sort
were brought Sabeans
00:03:44.84\00:03:47.98
from the wilderness,
00:03:47.99\00:03:49.04
which put
bracelets upon their hands,
00:03:49.05\00:03:51.20
and beautiful
crowns upon their heads.
00:03:51.21\00:03:53.91
Then said I unto her
that was old in adulteries,
00:03:53.92\00:03:58.01
Will they now
commit whoredoms with her,
00:03:58.02\00:04:00.58
and she with them?
00:04:00.59\00:04:03.09
Yet they went in unto her,
00:04:03.10\00:04:05.05
as they go in unto a
woman that playeth the harlot,
00:04:05.06\00:04:08.74
so went they in unto
Aholah and unto Aholibah,
00:04:08.75\00:04:13.69
the lewd women.
00:04:13.70\00:04:15.61
And the righteous
men, they shall judge them
00:04:15.62\00:04:18.33
after the
manner of adulteresses,
00:04:18.34\00:04:20.21
and after the manner
of women that shed blood,
00:04:20.22\00:04:23.08
because they are adulteresses,
00:04:23.09\00:04:25.29
and blood is in their hands.
00:04:25.30\00:04:28.39
For thus saith the Lord God,
00:04:28.40\00:04:30.87
I will bring up a
company upon them,
00:04:30.88\00:04:33.67
and will give them to
be removed and spoiled.
00:04:33.68\00:04:37.04
And the company shall
stone them with stones,
00:04:37.05\00:04:39.55
and dispatch them
with their swords,
00:04:39.56\00:04:42.18
they shall slay their
sons and their daughters,
00:04:42.19\00:04:44.86
and burn up
their houses with fire.
00:04:44.87\00:04:47.30
Thus will I cause lewdness
to cease out of the land,
00:04:47.31\00:04:50.26
that all women may be taught
00:04:50.27\00:04:52.24
not to do after your lewdness.
00:04:52.25\00:04:55.22
And they shall recompense
your lewdness upon you,
00:04:55.23\00:04:57.83
and ye shall bear
the sins of your idols,
00:04:57.84\00:05:00.78
and ye shall know
that I am the Lord God."
00:05:00.79\00:05:05.84
Continuing in the
Book of Ezekiel Chapter 24,
00:05:05.85\00:05:09.48
and this is the
King James Version.
00:05:09.49\00:05:12.55
"Again in the ninth
year, in the tenth month,
00:05:12.56\00:05:15.38
in the tenth day of the month,
00:05:15.39\00:05:17.59
the word of the Lord
came unto me, saying.
00:05:17.60\00:05:20.36
Son of man, write
thee the name of the day,
00:05:20.37\00:05:23.64
even of this same day,
00:05:23.65\00:05:25.68
the king of Babylon set himself
00:05:25.69\00:05:27.34
against Jerusalem this same day.
00:05:27.35\00:05:31.15
And utter a parable
unto the rebellious house,
00:05:31.16\00:05:33.93
and say unto them,
Thus saith the Lord God,
00:05:33.94\00:05:36.51
Set on a pot, set it on,
and also pour water into it,
00:05:36.52\00:05:41.96
gather the
pieces thereof into it,
00:05:41.97\00:05:43.86
even every good piece,
00:05:43.87\00:05:45.21
the thigh, and the shoulder,
fill it with the choice bones.
00:05:45.22\00:05:49.21
Take the choice of the flock,
00:05:49.22\00:05:50.75
and burn also
the bones under it,
00:05:50.76\00:05:52.68
and make it boil
well, and let them seethe
00:05:52.69\00:05:55.76
the bones of it therein.
00:05:55.77\00:05:58.99
Wherefore thus
saith the Lord God,
00:05:59.00\00:06:01.33
woe to the bloody city,
00:06:01.34\00:06:04.31
to the pot
whose scum is therein,
00:06:04.32\00:06:07.04
and whose scum is
not gone out of it.
00:06:07.05\00:06:09.64
Bring it out piece by
piece, let no lot fall upon it.
00:06:09.65\00:06:14.84
For her blood is
in the midst of her,
00:06:14.85\00:06:17.24
she set it upon
the top of a rock,
00:06:17.25\00:06:19.37
she poured it
not upon the ground,
00:06:19.38\00:06:21.06
to cover it with dust.
00:06:21.07\00:06:22.47
That it might
cause fury to come up
00:06:22.48\00:06:24.04
to take vengeance,
I have set her blood
00:06:24.05\00:06:26.31
upon the top of a rock,
00:06:26.32\00:06:27.60
that it should not be covered.
00:06:27.61\00:06:30.09
Therefore thus
saith the Lord God,
00:06:30.10\00:06:31.79
Woe to the bloody city.
00:06:31.80\00:06:34.28
I will even make
the pile for fire great.
00:06:34.29\00:06:37.27
Heap on wood, kindle the fire,
00:06:37.28\00:06:39.10
consume the
flesh, and spice it well,
00:06:39.11\00:06:41.81
and let the bones be burned.
00:06:41.82\00:06:44.57
Then set it empty
upon the coals thereof,
00:06:44.58\00:06:47.42
that the brass of it may be hot,
00:06:47.43\00:06:49.57
and may burn, and
that the filthiness of it
00:06:49.58\00:06:52.15
may be molten in it,
00:06:52.16\00:06:54.00
that the scum of
it may be consumed.
00:06:54.01\00:06:57.45
She hath wearied
herself with lies,
00:06:57.46\00:07:00.07
and her great scum
went not forth out of her,
00:07:00.08\00:07:02.91
her scum shall be in the fire.
00:07:02.92\00:07:06.04
In thy filthiness is lewdness,
00:07:06.05\00:07:08.87
because I have purged thee,
00:07:08.88\00:07:10.64
and thou wast not purged,
00:07:10.65\00:07:12.29
thou shalt not be purged
from thy filthiness any more,
00:07:12.30\00:07:14.99
till I have caused my
fury to rest upon thee.
00:07:15.00\00:07:19.47
I the Lord have spoken
it, it shall come to pass,
00:07:19.48\00:07:23.09
and I will do it,
I will not go back,
00:07:23.10\00:07:26.54
neither will I spare,
neither will I repent,
00:07:26.55\00:07:30.19
according to thy ways,
and according to thy doings,
00:07:30.20\00:07:34.11
shall they judge
thee, saith the Lord God.
00:07:34.12\00:07:37.90
Also the word of the
Lord came unto me, saying.
00:07:37.91\00:07:40.53
Son of man, behold,
I take away from thee
00:07:40.54\00:07:45.16
the desire of
thine eyes with a stroke,
00:07:45.17\00:07:48.42
yet neither shalt
thou mourn nor weep,
00:07:48.43\00:07:51.09
neither shall
thy tears run down.
00:07:51.10\00:07:53.04
Forbear to cry, make
no mourning for the dead,
00:07:53.05\00:07:56.96
bind the tire of
thine head upon thee,
00:07:56.97\00:07:59.29
and put on thy
shoes upon thy feet,
00:07:59.30\00:08:01.03
and cover not thy lips,
and eat not the bread of men.
00:08:01.04\00:08:05.20
So I spake unto the
people in the morning,
00:08:05.21\00:08:06.97
and at even my wife died,
00:08:06.98\00:08:10.57
and I did in the
morning as I was commanded.
00:08:10.58\00:08:13.73
And the people said unto me,
00:08:13.74\00:08:15.53
Wilt thou not tell us
what these things are to us,
00:08:15.54\00:08:18.16
that thou doest so?
00:08:18.17\00:08:20.99
Then I answered them,
00:08:21.00\00:08:23.00
the word of the Lord
came unto me, saying,
00:08:23.01\00:08:25.07
speak unto the house of Israel,
00:08:25.08\00:08:26.83
Thus saith the Lord God,
00:08:26.84\00:08:29.37
behold, I will
profane my sanctuary,
00:08:29.38\00:08:32.21
the Excellency of your strength,
00:08:32.22\00:08:34.19
the desire of your eyes,
00:08:34.20\00:08:35.75
and that which
your soul pitieth,
00:08:35.76\00:08:38.55
and your sons and your daughters
00:08:38.56\00:08:39.98
whom ye have left
shall fall by the sword.
00:08:39.99\00:08:43.32
And ye shall do as I have done,
00:08:43.33\00:08:45.04
ye shall not cover your lips,
00:08:45.05\00:08:46.77
nor eat the bread of men.
00:08:46.78\00:08:48.66
And your tires
shall be upon your heads,
00:08:48.67\00:08:50.80
and your shoes upon your feet,
00:08:50.81\00:08:53.10
ye shall not mourn nor weep,
00:08:53.11\00:08:55.82
but ye shall pine
away for your iniquities,
00:08:55.83\00:08:59.56
and mourn one toward another.
00:08:59.57\00:09:02.93
Thus Ezekiel is unto you a sign,
00:09:02.94\00:09:06.50
according to all
that he hath done
00:09:06.51\00:09:09.46
shall ye do, and
when this cometh,
00:09:09.47\00:09:12.40
ye shall know
that I am the Lord God.
00:09:12.41\00:09:16.79
Also, thou son of man,
shall it not be in the day
00:09:16.80\00:09:19.56
when I take from
them their strength,
00:09:19.57\00:09:22.07
the joy of their glory,
the desire of their eyes,
00:09:22.08\00:09:26.00
and that whereupon
they set their minds,
00:09:26.01\00:09:28.30
their sons and their daughters.
00:09:28.31\00:09:30.26
That he that
escapeth in that day
00:09:30.27\00:09:31.95
shall come unto thee,
00:09:31.96\00:09:33.05
to cause thee to
hear it with thine ears?
00:09:33.06\00:09:36.30
In that day shall
thy mouth be opened
00:09:36.31\00:09:38.47
to him which is
escaped, and thou shalt speak,
00:09:38.48\00:09:41.62
and be no more dumb,
00:09:41.63\00:09:43.20
and thou shalt
be a sign unto them,
00:09:43.21\00:09:45.62
and they shall know
that I am the Lord."
00:09:45.63\00:09:50.71
Continuing to
read Ezekiel Chapter 25
00:09:50.72\00:09:53.62
and this is the
King James Version.
00:09:53.63\00:09:56.66
"The word of the Lord
came again unto me, saying.
00:09:56.67\00:10:00.27
Son of man, set thy
face against the Ammonites,
00:10:00.28\00:10:02.84
and prophesy against them.
00:10:02.85\00:10:04.54
And say unto the Ammonites,
00:10:04.55\00:10:06.96
Hear the word of the Lord God,
00:10:06.97\00:10:09.05
thus saith the Lord
God, because thou saidst,
00:10:09.06\00:10:12.08
Aha, against my
sanctuary, when it was profaned,
00:10:12.09\00:10:16.76
and against the land of
Israel, when it was desolate,
00:10:16.77\00:10:19.95
and against the house of Judah,
when they went into captivity.
00:10:19.96\00:10:24.30
Behold, therefore
I will deliver thee
00:10:24.31\00:10:28.21
to the men of the
east for a possession,
00:10:28.22\00:10:31.13
and they shall set
their palaces in thee,
00:10:31.14\00:10:33.12
and make their
dwellings in thee,
00:10:33.13\00:10:35.32
they shall eat thy fruit,
and they shall drink thy milk.
00:10:35.33\00:10:39.25
And I will make
Rabbah a stable for camels,
00:10:39.26\00:10:42.63
and the Ammonites a
couching place for flocks,
00:10:42.64\00:10:46.17
and ye shall know
that I am the Lord.
00:10:46.18\00:10:50.08
For thus saith the Lord God,
00:10:50.09\00:10:52.55
because thou hast
clapped thine hands,
00:10:52.56\00:10:54.73
and stamped with the feet,
00:10:54.74\00:10:56.15
and rejoiced in
heart with all thy despite
00:10:56.16\00:11:00.70
against the land of Israel.
00:11:00.71\00:11:02.98
Behold, therefore
I will stretch out
00:11:02.99\00:11:04.78
mine hand upon thee,
00:11:04.79\00:11:06.98
and will deliver thee
for a spoil to the heathen,
00:11:06.99\00:11:09.48
and I will cut thee
off from the people,
00:11:09.49\00:11:11.51
and I will cause thee to perish
00:11:11.52\00:11:12.91
out of the countries,
00:11:12.92\00:11:14.66
I will destroy
thee, and thou shalt know
00:11:14.67\00:11:17.39
that I am the Lord.
00:11:17.40\00:11:19.93
Thus saith the Lord God,
00:11:19.94\00:11:21.62
because that Moab
and Seir do say, behold,
00:11:21.63\00:11:26.42
the house of Judah is
like unto all the heathen.
00:11:26.43\00:11:30.74
Therefore, behold,
00:11:30.75\00:11:32.19
I will open the side
of Moab from the cities,
00:11:32.20\00:11:35.38
from his cities
which are on his frontiers,
00:11:35.39\00:11:38.48
the glory of the country,
00:11:38.49\00:11:40.21
Bethjeshimoth,
Baalmeon, and Kiriathaim.
00:11:40.22\00:11:45.46
Unto the men of the
east with the Ammonites,
00:11:45.47\00:11:47.24
and will give
them in possession,
00:11:47.25\00:11:49.35
that the Ammonites
may not be remembered
00:11:49.36\00:11:51.40
among the nations.
00:11:51.41\00:11:52.40
And I will execute
judgments upon Moab,
00:11:52.41\00:11:55.34
and they shall
know that I am the Lord.
00:11:55.35\00:11:59.91
Thus saith the Lord God,
00:11:59.92\00:12:01.94
because that Edom hath dealt
00:12:01.95\00:12:04.48
against the house of Judah
00:12:04.49\00:12:06.20
by taking vengeance,
and hath greatly offended,
00:12:06.21\00:12:09.85
and revenged himself upon them.
00:12:09.86\00:12:13.23
Therefore thus
saith the Lord God,
00:12:13.24\00:12:16.20
I will also stretch
out mine hand upon Edom,
00:12:16.21\00:12:19.92
and will cut off
man and beast from it,
00:12:19.93\00:12:23.71
and I will make it
desolate from Teman,
00:12:23.72\00:12:25.50
and they of Dedan
shall fall by the sword.
00:12:25.51\00:12:28.17
And I will lay my
vengeance upon Edom
00:12:28.18\00:12:31.52
by the hand of my people Israel,
00:12:31.53\00:12:34.27
and they shall do in Edom
00:12:34.28\00:12:35.70
according to mine anger
and according to my fury,
00:12:35.71\00:12:38.11
and they shall
know my vengeance,
00:12:38.12\00:12:39.56
saith the Lord God.
00:12:39.57\00:12:42.05
Thus saith the Lord God,
00:12:42.06\00:12:43.43
because the Philistines
have dealt by revenge,
00:12:43.44\00:12:46.72
and have taken vengeance
with a despiteful heart,
00:12:46.73\00:12:49.32
to destroy it
for the old hatred.
00:12:49.33\00:12:51.54
Therefore thus saith
the Lord God, behold,
00:12:51.55\00:12:53.65
I will stretch out mine
hand upon the Philistines,
00:12:53.66\00:12:56.29
and I will cut
off the Cherethims,
00:12:56.30\00:12:58.64
and will destroy the
remnant of the sea coast.
00:12:58.65\00:13:02.09
And I will execute
great vengeance upon them
00:13:02.10\00:13:04.80
with furious
rebukes, and they shall know
00:13:04.81\00:13:08.06
that I am the Lord,
00:13:08.07\00:13:09.78
when I shall lay my
vengeance upon them."
00:13:09.79\00:13:13.26
Continuing in Ezekiel Chapter 26
00:13:13.27\00:13:15.99
and this is the
King James Version.
00:13:16.00\00:13:19.02
"And it came to pass
in the eleventh year,
00:13:19.03\00:13:21.35
in the first day of the month,
00:13:21.36\00:13:22.70
that the word of the
Lord came unto me, saying.
00:13:22.71\00:13:26.12
Son of man, because that Tyrus
00:13:26.13\00:13:30.09
hath said against Jerusalem,
00:13:30.10\00:13:32.28
Aha, she is broken
00:13:32.29\00:13:34.05
that was the
gates of the people,
00:13:34.06\00:13:36.27
she is turned unto me,
00:13:36.28\00:13:38.19
I shall be replenished,
now she is laid waste.
00:13:38.20\00:13:43.00
Therefore thus saith
the Lord God, behold,
00:13:43.01\00:13:46.17
I am against thee, O Tyrus,
00:13:46.18\00:13:48.32
and will cause many
nations to come up against thee,
00:13:48.33\00:13:51.33
as the sea causeth
his waves to come up.
00:13:51.34\00:13:54.61
And they shall
destroy the walls of Tyrus,
00:13:54.62\00:13:56.60
and break down her towers,
00:13:56.61\00:13:58.51
I will also
scrape her dust from her,
00:13:58.52\00:14:00.62
and make her like
the top of a rock.
00:14:00.63\00:14:03.03
It shall be a place
for the spreading of nets
00:14:03.04\00:14:05.24
in the midst of the sea,
00:14:05.25\00:14:07.06
for I have spoken
it, saith the Lord God,
00:14:07.07\00:14:09.42
and it shall become
a spoil to the nations.
00:14:09.43\00:14:12.31
And her daughters
which are in the field
00:14:12.32\00:14:14.78
shall be slain by the sword,
00:14:14.79\00:14:16.76
and they shall
know that I am the Lord.
00:14:16.77\00:14:20.35
For thus saith the Lord God,
00:14:20.36\00:14:21.92
Behold, I will bring
upon Tyrus Nebuchadrezzar
00:14:21.93\00:14:25.30
king of
Babylon, a king of kings,
00:14:25.31\00:14:27.66
from the north, with horses,
00:14:27.67\00:14:29.18
and with
chariots, and with horsemen,
00:14:29.19\00:14:31.61
and companies, and much people."
00:14:31.62\00:14:35.25
Please join me again next time
00:14:35.26\00:14:36.70

God together, goodbye.
