Hello and welcome to
"His Words Are Life."
00:00:16.09\00:00:18.51
I'm Kelly Mowrer and
today we're go to read together
00:00:18.52\00:00:21.25
from the Book of Ezekiel.
00:00:21.26\00:00:22.95
But first let's pray.
00:00:22.96\00:00:25.16
Dear Heavenly Father
thank you for Your love
00:00:25.17\00:00:27.89
that has redeemed us
and saved us and freed us.
00:00:27.90\00:00:32.73
And now Father please be with us
00:00:32.74\00:00:34.23
as we read Your word,
we want to know You more
00:00:34.24\00:00:37.55
and we want
these words to help us
00:00:37.56\00:00:38.98
to become more like You.
00:00:38.99\00:00:41.09
Please send the Holy
Spirit to be with us.
00:00:41.10\00:00:43.46
Asking the name of Jesus. Amen.
00:00:43.47\00:00:45.72
Reading in the Book
of Ezekiel, Chapter 28,
00:00:46.95\00:00:50.48
and God is speaking about
00:00:50.49\00:00:52.24
when He will gather
together again Israel,
00:00:52.25\00:00:56.35
who has been scattered.
Picking up in verse 26.
00:00:56.36\00:01:00.97
And they shall
dwell safely therein,
00:01:00.98\00:01:04.52
and shall build
houses, and plant vineyards.
00:01:04.53\00:01:06.70
Yea, they shall
dwell with confidence,
00:01:06.71\00:01:09.11
when I have executed
judgments upon all those
00:01:09.12\00:01:12.02
that despise
them round about them,
00:01:12.03\00:01:14.74
and they shall know
that I am the Lord their God.
00:01:14.75\00:01:18.96
Continuing in
Ezekiel, Chapter 29,
00:01:21.31\00:01:23.47
and this is the
King James Version.
00:01:23.48\00:01:26.31
In the tenth year,
in the tenth month,
00:01:26.32\00:01:28.88
in the twelfth day of the month,
00:01:28.89\00:01:31.44
the word of the
Lord came unto me,
00:01:31.45\00:01:33.08
saying, "Son of man,
00:01:33.09\00:01:35.13
set thy face against
Pharaoh king of Egypt,
00:01:35.14\00:01:37.67
and prophesy against
him, and against all Egypt.
00:01:37.68\00:01:41.51
Speak, and say,
Thus saith the Lord God.
00:01:41.52\00:01:46.25
Behold, I am against
thee, Pharaoh king of Egypt.
00:01:46.26\00:01:49.90
The great dragon that lieth
in the midst of his rivers,
00:01:49.91\00:01:53.47
which hath said,
My river is mine own,
00:01:53.48\00:01:56.10
and I have made it for myself.
00:01:56.11\00:01:58.94
But I will put
hooks in thy jaws,
00:01:58.95\00:02:00.94
and I will cause
the fish of thy rivers
00:02:00.95\00:02:03.60
to stick unto thy
scales, and I will bring thee up
00:02:03.61\00:02:06.93
out of the midst of thy rivers.
00:02:06.94\00:02:08.98
And all the fish of thy rivers
shall stick unto thy scales.
00:02:08.99\00:02:13.47
And I will leave thee
thrown into the wilderness,
00:02:13.48\00:02:16.63
thee and all the
fish of thy rivers,
00:02:16.64\00:02:18.99
thou shalt fall
upon the open fields,
00:02:19.00\00:02:21.49
thou shalt not
be brought together,
00:02:21.50\00:02:22.85
nor gathered.
00:02:22.86\00:02:24.34
I have given thee for
meat to the beasts of the field
00:02:24.35\00:02:27.04
and to the fowls of the heaven.
00:02:27.05\00:02:29.08
And all the inhabitants of Egypt
00:02:29.09\00:02:30.63
shall know that I am the
Lord, because they have been
00:02:30.64\00:02:33.14
a staff of reed to
the house of Israel.
00:02:33.15\00:02:35.56
When they took hold
of thee by thy hand,
00:02:37.24\00:02:39.90
thou didst break, and
rend all their shoulder,
00:02:39.91\00:02:43.90
and when they leaned
upon thee, thou brakest,
00:02:43.91\00:02:46.37
and madest all their
loins to be at a stand.
00:02:46.38\00:02:50.12
Therefore thus
saith the Lord God.
00:02:50.13\00:02:52.25
Behold, I will
bring a sword upon thee,
00:02:52.26\00:02:55.11
and cut off man
and beast out of thee.
00:02:55.12\00:02:58.51
And the land of Egypt
shall be desolate and waste,
00:02:58.52\00:03:02.01
and they shall
know that I am the Lord,
00:03:02.02\00:03:05.19
because he hath said,
00:03:05.20\00:03:06.79
The river is mine,
and I have made it.
00:03:06.80\00:03:10.21
Behold, therefore
I am against thee,
00:03:10.22\00:03:12.02
and against thy rivers,
00:03:12.03\00:03:13.68
and I will make
the land of Egypt
00:03:13.69\00:03:15.06
utterly waste and desolate,
00:03:15.07\00:03:17.48
from the tower of Syene
00:03:17.49\00:03:19.58
even unto the
border of Ethiopia.
00:03:19.59\00:03:22.27
No foot of man
shall pass through it,
00:03:22.28\00:03:24.14
nor foot of beast
shall pass through it,
00:03:24.15\00:03:25.98
neither shall it be
inhabited forty years.
00:03:25.99\00:03:29.46
And I will make the
land of Egypt desolate
00:03:29.47\00:03:31.34
in the midst of the
countries that are desolate.
00:03:31.35\00:03:33.79
And her cities among the cities
00:03:33.80\00:03:35.58
that are laid waste
shall be desolate forty years,
00:03:35.59\00:03:38.83
and I will scatter the Egyptians
00:03:38.84\00:03:40.41
among the nations,
00:03:40.42\00:03:41.41
and will disperse
them through the countries.
00:03:41.42\00:03:44.57
Yet thus saith the Lord God,
00:03:44.58\00:03:46.36
at the end of forty years
00:03:46.37\00:03:47.65
will I gather the
Egyptians from the people
00:03:47.66\00:03:50.44
whither they were scattered.
00:03:50.45\00:03:52.36
And I will bring again
the captivity of Egypt,
00:03:52.37\00:03:54.54
and will cause them to
return into the land of Pathros,
00:03:54.55\00:03:58.44
into the land of
their habitation,
00:03:58.45\00:04:00.04
and they shall be
there a base kingdom.
00:04:00.05\00:04:02.60
It shall be the
basest of the kingdoms,
00:04:02.61\00:04:05.09
neither shall it exalt itself
any more above the nations,
00:04:05.10\00:04:08.67
for I will diminish them,
00:04:08.68\00:04:10.85
that they shall no
more rule over the nations.
00:04:10.86\00:04:14.62
And it shall be no more
00:04:14.63\00:04:15.68
the confidence of
the house of Israel,
00:04:15.69\00:04:17.93
which bringeth their
iniquity to remembrance,
00:04:17.94\00:04:20.22
when they shall look after them.
00:04:20.23\00:04:22.51
But they shall know
that I am the Lord God.
00:04:22.52\00:04:26.89
And it came to pass in
the seven and twentieth year,
00:04:26.90\00:04:30.05
in the first month, in
the first day of the month.
00:04:30.06\00:04:33.34
The word of the
Lord came unto me,
00:04:33.35\00:04:35.05
saying, Son of man,
Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon
00:04:35.06\00:04:39.23
caused his army to serve a
great service against Tyrus.
00:04:39.24\00:04:44.85
Every head was made bald,
00:04:44.86\00:04:46.76
and every shoulder was peeled.
00:04:46.77\00:04:49.15
Yet had he no wages,
nor his army, for Tyrus,
00:04:49.16\00:04:52.86
for the service that
he had served against it.
00:04:52.87\00:04:56.72
Therefore thus
saith the Lord God.
00:04:56.73\00:04:59.39
Behold, I will
give the land of Egypt
00:04:59.40\00:05:02.52
unto
Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon,
00:05:02.53\00:05:05.27
and he shall take her multitude,
00:05:05.28\00:05:06.98
and take her
spoil, and take her prey,
00:05:06.99\00:05:10.02
and it shall be
the wages for his army.
00:05:10.03\00:05:13.38
I have given him the
land of Egypt for his labour
00:05:13.39\00:05:16.26
wherewith he served against it,
00:05:16.27\00:05:17.58
because they wrought
for me, saith the Lord God.
00:05:17.59\00:05:20.47
In that day will I cause
00:05:20.48\00:05:22.22
the horn of the house
of Israel to bud forth,
00:05:22.23\00:05:24.46
and I will give thee
the opening of the mouth
00:05:24.47\00:05:26.55
in the midst of them.
00:05:26.56\00:05:28.05
And they shall
know that I am the Lord.
00:05:28.06\00:05:32.92
Continuing in the Book
of Ezekiel, Chapter 30,
00:05:32.93\00:05:36.02
and this is the
King James Version.
00:05:36.03\00:05:39.32
The word of the
Lord came again unto me,
00:05:39.33\00:05:41.23
saying, Son of
man, prophesy and say,
00:05:41.24\00:05:45.38
Thus saith the Lord God,
Howl ye, Woe worth the day,
00:05:45.39\00:05:50.76
For the day is near,
00:05:50.77\00:05:51.76
even the day of
the Lord is near,
00:05:51.77\00:05:53.44
a cloudy day, it shall
be the time of the heathen.
00:05:53.45\00:05:57.50
And the sword
shall come upon Egypt,
00:05:57.51\00:05:59.58
and great pain
shall be in Ethiopia,
00:05:59.59\00:06:01.90
when the slain
shall fall in Egypt,
00:06:01.91\00:06:04.47
and they shall
take away her multitude,
00:06:04.48\00:06:06.76
and her foundations
shall be broken down.
00:06:06.77\00:06:10.07
Ethiopia, and Libya, and Lydia,
00:06:10.08\00:06:13.40
and all the
mingled people, and Chub,
00:06:13.41\00:06:16.82
and the men of the
land that is in league,
00:06:16.83\00:06:19.27
shall fall with
them by the sword.
00:06:19.28\00:06:22.14
Thus saith the Lord,
00:06:22.15\00:06:23.58
They also that
uphold Egypt shall fall,
00:06:23.59\00:06:27.16
and the pride of her
power shall come down,
00:06:27.17\00:06:30.27
from the tower of
Syene shall they fall in it
00:06:30.28\00:06:33.05
by the sword,
saith the Lord God.
00:06:33.06\00:06:35.17
And they shall be desolate
in the midst of the countries
00:06:35.18\00:06:37.54
that are
desolate, and her cities
00:06:37.55\00:06:39.53
shall be in the
midst of the cities
00:06:39.54\00:06:41.45
that are wasted.
00:06:41.46\00:06:43.18
And they shall
know that I am the Lord,
00:06:43.19\00:06:45.35
when I have set a fire in Egypt,
00:06:45.36\00:06:47.19
and when all her
helpers shall be destroyed.
00:06:47.20\00:06:50.92
In that day shall messengers
go forth from me in ships
00:06:50.93\00:06:54.84
to make the
careless Ethiopians afraid,
00:06:54.85\00:06:58.30
and great pain
shall come upon them,
00:06:58.31\00:07:00.94
as in the day of
Egypt, for, lo, it cometh.
00:07:00.95\00:07:04.33
Thus saith the Lord God,
00:07:04.34\00:07:05.63
I will also make the
multitude of Egypt to cease
00:07:05.64\00:07:08.78
by the hand of Nebuchadrezzar
00:07:08.79\00:07:10.35
king of Babylon.
00:07:10.36\00:07:11.86
He and his people with him,
the terrible of the nations,
00:07:11.87\00:07:15.90
shall be brought
to destroy the land,
00:07:15.91\00:07:18.82
and they shall draw
their swords against Egypt,
00:07:18.83\00:07:21.62
and fill the
land with the slain.
00:07:21.63\00:07:24.90
And I will make the rivers dry,
00:07:24.91\00:07:26.85
and sell the land into
the hand of the wicked,
00:07:26.86\00:07:29.44
and I will make the land waste,
00:07:29.45\00:07:30.82
and all that is therein,
by the hand of strangers,
00:07:30.83\00:07:35.13
I the Lord have spoken it.
00:07:35.14\00:07:37.83
Thus saith the Lord God, I
will also destroy the idols,
00:07:37.84\00:07:41.73
and I will cause their
images to cease out of Noph,
00:07:41.74\00:07:45.85
and there shall be no more
a prince of the land of Egypt,
00:07:45.86\00:07:49.46
and I will put a
fear in the land of Egypt.
00:07:49.47\00:07:52.54
And I will make
Pathros desolate,
00:07:52.55\00:07:54.53
and will set fire in Zoan,
00:07:54.54\00:07:56.04
and will
execute judgments in No.
00:07:56.05\00:07:59.12
And I will pour
my fury upon Sin,
00:07:59.13\00:08:01.40
the strength of Egypt,
00:08:01.41\00:08:02.40
and I will cut off
the multitude of No.
00:08:02.41\00:08:05.17
And I will set fire in Egypt,
Sin shall have great pain,
00:08:05.18\00:08:08.88
and No shall be rent asunder,
00:08:08.89\00:08:10.48
and Noph shall
have distresses daily.
00:08:10.49\00:08:13.54
The young men of
Aven and of Pibeseth
00:08:13.55\00:08:16.53
shall fall by the sword,
00:08:16.54\00:08:18.49
and these cities
shall go into captivity.
00:08:18.50\00:08:22.05
At Tehaphnehes also
the day shall be darkened,
00:08:22.06\00:08:24.46
when I shall break
there the yokes of Egypt,
00:08:24.47\00:08:26.70
and the pomp of her
strength shall cease in her,
00:08:26.71\00:08:30.19
as for her, a
cloud shall cover her,
00:08:30.20\00:08:32.01
and her daughters
shall go into captivity.
00:08:32.02\00:08:35.27
Thus will I
execute judgments in Egypt,
00:08:35.28\00:08:38.19
and they shall
know that I am the Lord.
00:08:38.20\00:08:42.13
And it came to pass
in the eleventh year,
00:08:42.14\00:08:44.03
in the first month, in
the seventh day of the month,
00:08:44.04\00:08:46.96
that the word of
the Lord came unto me,
00:08:46.97\00:08:48.40
saying, Son of man,
00:08:48.41\00:08:50.82
I have broken the arm
of Pharaoh king of Egypt,
00:08:50.83\00:08:53.94
and, lo, it shall not
be bound up to be healed,
00:08:53.95\00:08:57.14
to put a roller to bind it,
00:08:57.15\00:08:58.88
to make it strong
to hold the sword.
00:08:58.89\00:09:01.81
Therefore thus
saith the Lord God,
00:09:01.82\00:09:04.15
Behold, I am against
Pharaoh king of Egypt,
00:09:04.16\00:09:07.47
and will break
his arms, the strong,
00:09:07.48\00:09:10.29
and that which was broken,
00:09:10.30\00:09:11.88
and I will cause the
sword to fall out of his hand.
00:09:11.89\00:09:16.07
And I will scatter the Egyptians
00:09:16.08\00:09:17.50
among the nations,
00:09:17.51\00:09:18.94
and will disperse
them through the countries.
00:09:18.95\00:09:21.96
And I will strengthen the
arms of the king of Babylon,
00:09:21.97\00:09:24.73
and put my sword in his hand,
00:09:24.74\00:09:26.96
but I will break Pharaohs arms.
00:09:26.97\00:09:29.23
And he shall groan before him
00:09:29.24\00:09:31.13
with the groanings
of a deadly wounded man.
00:09:31.14\00:09:35.03
But I will strengthen the
arms of the king of Babylon,
00:09:35.04\00:09:38.11
and the arms of
Pharaoh shall fall down,
00:09:38.12\00:09:41.04
and they shall
know that I am the Lord,
00:09:41.05\00:09:43.40
when I shall put my sword
00:09:43.41\00:09:44.62
into the hand of
the king of Babylon,
00:09:44.63\00:09:46.77
and he shall stretch it
out upon the land of Egypt.
00:09:46.78\00:09:50.64
And I will scatter the Egyptians
00:09:50.65\00:09:51.98
among the nations,
00:09:51.99\00:09:53.50
and disperse them
among the countries.
00:09:53.51\00:09:55.99
And they shall
know that I am the Lord.
00:09:56.00\00:10:00.19
Continuing in
the Book of Ezekiel,
00:10:00.20\00:10:02.04
Chapter 31, this is
the King James Version.
00:10:02.05\00:10:04.45
And it came to pass
in the eleventh year,
00:10:05.74\00:10:08.58
in the third month, in
the first day of the month,
00:10:08.59\00:10:11.99
that the word of
the Lord came unto me,
00:10:12.00\00:10:14.22
saying, Son of man,
00:10:14.23\00:10:16.06
speak unto
Pharaoh king of Egypt,
00:10:16.07\00:10:17.74
and to his multitude,
00:10:17.75\00:10:19.93
Whom art thou
like in thy greatness?
00:10:19.94\00:10:23.49
Behold, the Assyrian
was a cedar in Lebanon
00:10:23.50\00:10:26.89
with fair branches, and
with a shadowing shroud,
00:10:26.90\00:10:30.01
and of an high stature,
00:10:30.02\00:10:31.90
and his top was
among the thick boughs.
00:10:31.91\00:10:34.74
The waters made him great,
00:10:34.75\00:10:36.67
the deep set him up on high
00:10:36.68\00:10:38.56
with her rivers
running round about his plants,
00:10:38.57\00:10:41.11
and sent her little rivers
00:10:41.12\00:10:42.85
unto all the trees of the field.
00:10:42.86\00:10:45.08
Therefore his height was exalted
00:10:45.09\00:10:46.67
above all the
trees of the field,
00:10:46.68\00:10:48.36
and his boughs were multiplied,
00:10:48.37\00:10:49.63
and his branches became long
00:10:49.64\00:10:51.69
because of the
multitude of waters,
00:10:51.70\00:10:53.57
when he shot forth.
00:10:53.58\00:10:55.47
All the fowls of heaven
made their nests in his boughs,
00:10:55.48\00:10:58.88
and under his branches did
all the beasts of the field
00:10:58.89\00:11:01.92
bring forth their young,
00:11:01.93\00:11:02.93
and under his shadow
dwelt all great nations.
00:11:02.94\00:11:07.00
Thus was he fair
in his greatness,
00:11:07.01\00:11:09.10
in the length of his branches,
00:11:09.11\00:11:11.04
for his root
was by great waters.
00:11:11.05\00:11:13.85
The cedars in the garden
of God could not hide him,
00:11:13.86\00:11:17.65
the fir trees were
not like his boughs,
00:11:17.66\00:11:19.58
and the chestnut trees
were not like his branches,
00:11:19.59\00:11:22.46
nor any tree in
the garden of God
00:11:22.47\00:11:24.16
was like unto him in his beauty.
00:11:24.17\00:11:27.29
I have made him fair
00:11:27.30\00:11:28.48
by the
multitude of his branches,
00:11:28.49\00:11:30.48
so that all the trees of Eden,
00:11:30.49\00:11:32.69
that were in the
garden of God, envied him.
00:11:32.70\00:11:37.00
Therefore thus
saith the Lord God,
00:11:37.01\00:11:39.24
Because thou hast
lifted up thyself in height,
00:11:39.25\00:11:44.02
and he hath shot up his
top among the thick boughs,
00:11:44.03\00:11:46.57
and his heart is
lifted up in his height,
00:11:46.58\00:11:50.31
I have therefore delivered him
00:11:50.32\00:11:51.96
into the hand of the
mighty one of the heathen.
00:11:51.97\00:11:55.17
He shall surely deal with him,
00:11:55.18\00:11:57.49
I have driven him
out for his wickedness.
00:11:57.50\00:12:00.73
And strangers, the
terrible of the nations,
00:12:00.74\00:12:03.11
have cut him off,
and have left him,
00:12:03.12\00:12:05.63
upon the mountains
and in all the valleys
00:12:05.64\00:12:08.23
his branches are fallen,
00:12:08.24\00:12:09.44
and his boughs are broken
by all the rivers of the land,
00:12:09.45\00:12:13.06
and all the people of
the earth are gone down
00:12:13.07\00:12:15.26
down from his
shadow, and have left him.
00:12:15.27\00:12:17.80
Upon his ruin
shall all the fowls
00:12:17.81\00:12:20.14
of the heaven remain,
00:12:20.15\00:12:21.71
and all the beasts of the field
00:12:21.72\00:12:23.60
shall be upon his branches.
00:12:23.61\00:12:25.85
To the end that none of
all the trees by the waters
00:12:25.86\00:12:28.75
exalt themselves
for their height,
00:12:28.76\00:12:30.75
neither shoot up their
top among the thick boughs,
00:12:30.76\00:12:33.49
neither their trees
stand up in their height,
00:12:33.50\00:12:36.34
all that drink water,
00:12:36.35\00:12:38.13
for they are all
delivered unto death,
00:12:38.14\00:12:40.57
to the nether
parts of the earth,
00:12:40.58\00:12:42.59
in the midst of
the children of men,
00:12:42.60\00:12:44.76
with them that
go down to the pit.
00:12:44.77\00:12:48.05
Thus saith the Lord God,
00:12:48.06\00:12:49.74
In the day when he
went down to the grave
00:12:49.75\00:12:51.91
I caused a mourning, I
covered the deep for him,
00:12:51.92\00:12:55.32
and I restrained
the floods thereof,
00:12:55.33\00:12:57.44
and the great
waters were stayed,
00:12:57.45\00:12:59.57
and I caused
Lebanon to mourn for him,
00:12:59.58\00:13:01.94
and all the trees of
the field fainted for him.
00:13:01.95\00:13:06.16
I made the nations to
shake at the sound of his fall,
00:13:06.17\00:13:09.81
when I cast him
down to hell with them
00:13:09.82\00:13:12.23
that descend into the
pit, and all the trees of Eden,
00:13:12.24\00:13:15.92
the choice and best of Lebanon,
00:13:15.93\00:13:18.64
all that drink
water, shall be comforted
00:13:18.65\00:13:21.09
in the nether
parts of the earth.
00:13:21.10\00:13:23.38
They also went
down into hell with him
00:13:23.39\00:13:25.90
unto them that be
slain with the sword,
00:13:25.91\00:13:28.12
and they that were his arm,
00:13:28.13\00:13:29.90
that dwelt under his shadow
in the midst of the heathen.
00:13:29.91\00:13:34.48
To whom art thou
thus like in glory
00:13:34.49\00:13:37.81
and in greatness
among the trees of Eden?
00:13:37.82\00:13:41.12
Yet shalt thou be brought
down with the trees of Eden
00:13:41.13\00:13:43.67
unto the nether
parts of the earth,
00:13:43.68\00:13:45.77
thou shalt lie in the
midst of the uncircumcised
00:13:45.78\00:13:48.65
with them that be
slain by the sword.
00:13:48.66\00:13:51.24
This is Pharaoh
and all his multitude,
00:13:51.25\00:13:54.68
saith the Lord God.
00:13:54.69\00:13:57.28
Continuing in
Ezekiel, Chapter 32,
00:13:57.29\00:14:00.86
And it came to pass
in the twelfth year,
00:14:00.87\00:14:03.46
in the twelfth month, in
the first day of the month,
00:14:03.47\00:14:06.22
that the word of
the Lord came unto me,
00:14:06.23\00:14:08.06
saying, Son of man,
00:14:08.07\00:14:09.33
take up a lamentation
for Pharaoh king of Egypt,
00:14:09.34\00:14:11.89
and say unto him, Thou art like
00:14:11.90\00:14:14.14
a young lion of the nations,
00:14:14.15\00:14:16.46
and thou art as a
whale in the seas,
00:14:16.47\00:14:18.88
and thou camest
forth with thy rivers,
00:14:18.89\00:14:20.78
and troubledst the
waters with thy feet,
00:14:20.79\00:14:23.24
and fouledst their rivers.
00:14:23.25\00:14:25.55
Thus saith the Lord God,
00:14:25.56\00:14:27.52
I will therefore
spread out my net over thee
00:14:27.53\00:14:30.96
with a company of many people,
00:14:30.97\00:14:33.75
and they shall
bring thee up in my net.
00:14:33.76\00:14:37.23
