Chapter 14 Then came certain of the elders
of Israel unto me, and sat before me.

00:07.340 --> 00:13.860
And the word of the Lord came unto me,
saying, Son of man, These men have set up

00:13.860 --> 00:17.680
their idols in their heart, and put the
stumbling block of their iniquity before

00:17.680 --> 00:18.240
their face.

00:18.860 --> 00:21.180
Should I be inquired of at all by them?

00:21.900 --> 00:26.900
Therefore speak unto them, and say unto
them, Thus saith the Lord God,

00:27.400 --> 00:31.480
Every man of the house of Israel that
setteth up his idols in his heart,

00:31.780 --> 00:36.520
and putteth the stumbling block of his
iniquity before his face, and cometh to

00:36.520 --> 00:41.020
the prophet, I, the Lord, will answer him
that cometh according to the multitude of

00:41.020 --> 00:46.340
his idols, that I may take the house of
Israel in their own heart, because they

00:46.340 --> 00:49.280
are all estranged from me through their
idols.

00:50.220 --> 00:55.240
Therefore say unto the house of Israel,
Thus saith the Lord God, Repent,

00:55.820 --> 01:00.280
and turn yourselves from your idols,
and turn away your faces from all your

01:00.280 --> 01:01.020
abominations.

01:01.780 --> 01:06.280
For every one of the house of Israel,
or of the stranger that sojourneth in

01:06.280 --> 01:11.560
Israel, which separateth himself from me,
and setteth up his idols in his heart,

01:11.820 --> 01:16.440
and putteth the stumbling block of his
iniquity before his face, and cometh to a

01:16.440 --> 01:21.320
prophet to inquire of him concerning me,
I, the Lord, will answer him by myself,

01:21.320 --> 01:26.960
and I will set my face against that man,
and will make him a sign and a proverb,

01:27.720 --> 01:33.400
and I will cut him off from the midst of
my people, and ye shall know that I am the

01:33.400 --> 01:33.720
Lord.

01:35.660 --> 01:39.900
And if the prophet be deceived when he
hath spoken a thing, I, the Lord,

01:40.060 --> 01:44.500
have deceived that prophet, and I will
stretch out my hand upon him, and will

01:44.500 --> 01:46.780
destroy him from the midst of my people
Israel.

01:47.440 --> 01:51.140
And they shall bear the punishment of
their iniquity, the punishment of the

01:51.140 --> 01:54.660
prophet shall be even as the punishment of
him that seeketh unto him.

01:55.740 --> 02:00.760
That the house of Israel may go no more
astray from me, neither be polluted any

02:00.760 --> 02:04.800
more with all their transgressions,
but that they may be my people,

02:05.560 --> 02:08.500
and I may be their God, saith the Lord
God.

02:09.480 --> 02:15.120
The word of the Lord came again to me,
saying, Son of man, when the land sinneth

02:15.120 --> 02:20.180
against me by trespassing grievously,
then will I stretch out mine hand upon it,

02:20.600 --> 02:24.960
and will break the staff of the bread
thereof, and will send famine upon it,

02:25.520 --> 02:27.640
and will cut off man and beast from it.

02:28.220 --> 02:33.280
Though these three men, Noah, Daniel,
and Job, were in it, they should deliver

02:33.280 --> 02:36.820
but their own souls by their
righteousness, saith the Lord God.

02:37.700 --> 02:43.100
If I cause noisome beasts to pass through
the land, and they spoil it, so that it be

02:43.100 --> 02:47.820
desolate, that no man may pass through
because of the beasts, though these three

02:47.820 --> 02:52.880
men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord
God, they shall deliver neither sons nor

02:52.880 --> 02:57.620
daughters, they only shall be delivered,
but the land shall be desolate.

02:58.280 --> 03:03.020
Or if I bring a sword upon that land,
and say, Sword, go through the land,

03:03.820 --> 03:08.400
so that I cut off man and beast from it,
though these three men were in it,

03:08.440 --> 03:12.820
as I live, saith the Lord God,
they shall deliver neither sons nor

03:12.820 --> 03:16.260
daughters, but they only shall be
delivered themselves.

03:17.220 --> 03:22.440
Or if I send a pestilence into that land,
and pour out my fury upon it in blood,

03:22.760 --> 03:28.120
to cut off from it man and beast,
though Noah, Daniel, and Job were in it,

03:28.160 --> 03:32.640
as I live, saith the Lord God,
they shall deliver neither son nor

03:32.640 --> 03:36.600
daughter, they shall but deliver their own
souls by their righteousness.

03:37.440 --> 03:42.420
For thus saith the Lord God, How much
more, when I send my four sword judgments

03:42.420 --> 03:47.080
upon Jerusalem, the sword, and the famine,
and the noisome beast, and the pestilence,

03:47.420 --> 03:50.000
to cut off from it man and beast?

03:51.440 --> 03:56.260
Yet behold, therein shall be left a
remnant, that shall be brought forth both

03:56.260 --> 03:57.420
sons and daughters.

03:58.060 --> 04:02.600
Behold, they shall come forth unto you,
and ye shall see their way and their

04:02.600 --> 04:06.380
doings, and ye shall be comforted
concerning the evil that I have brought

04:06.380 --> 04:10.260
upon Jerusalem, even concerning all that I
have brought upon it.

04:11.100 --> 04:16.240
And they shall comfort you, when ye see
their ways and their doings, and ye shall

04:16.240 --> 04:21.360
know that I have not done without cause
all that I have done in it, saith the Lord God.
