Ezekiel
11:1	Moreover the spirit lifted me up, and brought me unto the east gate of
	the LORD's house, which looketh eastward: and behold at the door of the
	gate five and twenty men; among whom I saw Jaazaniah the son of Azur,
	and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, princes of the people.
11:2	Then said he unto me, Son of man, these are the men that devise
	mischief, and give wicked counsel in this city:
11:3	Which say, It is not near; let us build houses: this city is the
	caldron, and we be the flesh.
11:4	Therefore prophesy against them, prophesy, O son of man.
11:5	And the Spirit of the LORD fell upon me, and said unto me, Speak; Thus
	saith the LORD; Thus have ye said, O house of Israel: for I know the
	things that come into your mind, every one of them.
11:6	Ye have multiplied your slain in this city, and ye have filled the
	streets thereof with the slain.
11:7	Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Your slain whom ye have laid in the
	midst of it, they are the flesh, and this city is the caldron: but I
	will bring you forth out of the midst of it.
11:8	Ye have feared the sword; and I will bring a sword upon you, saith the
	Lord GOD.
11:9	And I will bring you out of the midst thereof, and deliver you into the
	hands of strangers, and will execute judgments among you.
11:10	Ye shall fall by the sword; I will judge you in the border of Israel;
	and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
11:11	This city shall not be your caldron, neither shall ye be the flesh in
	the midst thereof; but I will judge you in the border of Israel:
11:12	And ye shall know that I am the LORD: for ye have not walked in my
	statutes, neither executed my judgments, but have done after the manners
	of the heathen that are round about you.
11:13	And it came to pass, when I prophesied, that Pelatiah the son of Benaiah
	died. Then fell I down upon my face, and cried with a loud voice, and
	said, Ah Lord GOD! wilt thou make a full end of the remnant of Israel?
11:14	Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
11:15	Son of man, thy brethren, even thy brethren, the men of thy kindred, and
	all the house of Israel wholly, are they unto whom the inhabitants of
	Jerusalem have said, Get you far from the LORD: unto us is this land
	given in possession.
11:16	Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Although I have cast them far
	off among the heathen, and although I have scattered them among the
	countries, yet will I be to them as a little sanctuary in the countries
	where they shall come.
11:17	Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even gather you from the
	people, and assemble you out of the countries where ye have been
	scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.
11:18	And they shall come thither, and they shall take away all the detestable
	things thereof and all the abominations thereof from thence.
11:19	And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you;
	and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them
	an heart of flesh:
11:20	That they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do
	them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
11:21	But as for them whose heart walketh after the heart of their detestable
	things and their abominations, I will recompense their way upon their
	own heads, saith the Lord GOD.
11:22	Then did the cherubims lift up their wings, and the wheels beside them;
	and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.
11:23	And the glory of the LORD went up from the midst of the city, and stood
	upon the mountain which is on the east side of the city.
11:24	Afterwards the spirit took me up, and brought me in a vision by the
	Spirit of God into Chaldea, to them of the captivity. So the vision that
	I had seen went up from me.
11:25	Then I spake unto them of the captivity all the things that the LORD had
	shewed me.
