And thou, son
of man,
take
thee a sharp
knife,
take
thee a barber's
razor,
and cause it to pass
upon thine head
and upon thy beard:
then take
thee balances
to weigh,
and divide
the hair.

Thou shalt burn
with fire
a third part
in the midst
of the city,
when the days
of the siege
are fulfilled:
and thou shalt take
a third part,
and smite
about
it with a knife:
and a third part
thou shalt scatter
in the wind;
and I will draw out
a sword
after
them.

Thou shalt also take
thereof a few
in number,
and bind
them in thy skirts.
Then take of them again,
and cast
them into the midst
of the fire,
and burn
them in the fire;
for thereof shall a fire
come forth
into all the house
of Israel.
Thus saith
the Lord
GOD;
This is Jerusalem:
I have set
it in the midst
of the nations
and countries
that are round about
her.
And she hath changed
my judgments
into wickedness
more than the nations,
and my statutes
more than the countries
that are round about
her: for they have refused
my judgments
and my statutes,
they have not walked
in them.

Therefore thus saith
the Lord
GOD;
Because ye multiplied
more than the nations
that are round about
you, and have not walked
in my statutes,
neither have kept
my judgments,
neither have done
according to the judgments
of the nations
that are round about
you;

Therefore thus saith
the Lord
GOD;
Behold, I, even I, am against thee, and will execute
judgments
in the midst
of thee in the sight
of the nations.
And I will do
in thee that which I have not done,
and whereunto I will not do
any more the like, because
of all thine abominations.
Therefore the fathers
shall eat
the sons
in the midst
of thee, and the sons
shall eat
their fathers;
and I will execute
judgments
in thee, and the whole remnant
of thee will I scatter
into all the winds.
Wherefore, as I live,
saith
the Lord
GOD;
Surely, because thou hast defiled
my sanctuary
with all thy detestable things,
and with all thine abominations,
therefore will I also diminish
thee; neither shall mine eye
spare,
neither will I have any pity.
A third part
of thee shall die
with the pestilence,
and with famine
shall they be consumed
in the midst
of thee: and a third part
shall fall
by the sword
round about
thee; and I will scatter
a third part
into all the winds,
and I will draw out
a sword
after
them.

Thus shall mine anger
be accomplished,
and I will cause my fury
to rest
upon them, and I will be comforted:
and they shall know
that I the LORD
have spoken
it in my zeal,
when I have accomplished
my fury
in them.
Moreover I will make
thee waste,
and a reproach
among the nations
that are round about
thee, in the sight
of all that pass by.
So it shall be a reproach
and a taunt,
an instruction
and an astonishment
unto the nations
that are round about
thee, when I shall execute
judgments
in thee in anger
and in fury
and in furious
rebukes.
I the LORD
have spoken
it.

When I shall send
upon them the evil
arrows
of famine,
which shall be for their destruction,
and which I will send
to destroy
you: and I will increase
the famine
upon you, and will break
your staff
of bread:
So will I send
upon you famine
and evil
beasts,
and they shall bereave
thee; and pestilence
and blood
shall pass through
thee; and I will bring
the sword
upon thee. I the LORD
have spoken
it.
