| Ezekiel 20:1 | Now it came about in the seventh year, in the fifth month, on the tenth day of the month, that certain of the responsible men of Israel came to get directions from the Lord and were seated before me. | And it came to pass in the seventh year, in the fifth [month], the tenth of the month, [that] certain of the elders of Israel came to inquire of Jehovah, and they sat before me. | And it came to pass in the seventh year, in the fifth month, the tenth day of the month: there came men of the ancients of Israel to inquire of the Lord, and they sat before me. |
| Ezekiel 20:2 | Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying, | And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying, | And the word of the Lord came to me, saying: |
| Ezekiel 20:3 | Son of man, say to the responsible men of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: Have you come to get directions from me? By my life, says the Lord, you will get no directions from me. | Son of man, speak unto the elders of Israel, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Are ye come to inquire of me? [As] I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, I will not be inquired of by you. | Son of man, speak to the ancients of Israel, and say to them: Thus saith the Lord God: Are you come to inquire of me? As I live, I will not answer you, saith the Lord God. |
| Ezekiel 20:4 | Will you be their judge, O son of man, will you be their judge? make clear to them the disgusting ways of their fathers, | Wilt thou judge them, wilt thou judge, son of man? Cause them to know the abominations of their fathers, | If thou judgest them, if thou judgest, son of man, declare to them the abominations of their fathers. |
| Ezekiel 20:5 | And say to them, This is what the Lord has said: In the day when I took Israel for myself, when I made an oath to the seed of the family of Jacob, and I gave them knowledge of myself in the land of Egypt, saying to them with an oath, I am the Lord your God; | and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: In the day when I chose Israel, and lifted up my hand unto the seed of the house of Jacob, and made myself known unto them in the land of Egypt, when I lifted up my hand unto them, saying, I [am] Jehovah your God, | And say to them: Thus saith the Lord God : In the day when I chose Israel, and lifted up my hand for the race of the house of Jacob: and appeared to them in the land of Egypt, and lifted up my hand for them, saying: I am the Lord your God: |
| Ezekiel 20:6 | In that day I gave my oath to take them out of the land of Egypt into a land which I had been searching out for them, a land flowing with milk and honey, the glory of all lands: | in that day I lifted up my hand unto them, to bring them out of the land of Egypt into a land that I had espied for them, flowing with milk and honey, which is the ornament of all lands; | In that day I lifted up my hand for them, to bring them out of the land of Egypt, into a land which I had provided for them, flowing with milk and honey, which excelleth amongst all lands. |
| Ezekiel 20:7 | And I said to them, Let every man among you put away the disgusting things to which his eyes are turned, and do not make yourselves unclean with the images of Egypt; I am the Lord your God. | and I said unto them, Cast ye away every man the abominations of his eyes, and defile not yourselves with the idols of Egypt: I [am] Jehovah your God. | And I said to them: Let every man cast away the scandals of his eyes, and defile not yourselves with the idols of Egypt: I am the Lord your God. |
| Ezekiel 20:8 | But they would not be controlled by me, and did not give ear to me; they did not put away the disgusting things to which their eyes were turned, or give up the images of Egypt: then I said I would let loose my passion on them to give full effect to my wrath against them in the land of Egypt. | But they rebelled against me, and would not hearken unto me: none of them cast away the abominations of his eyes, neither did they forsake the idols of Egypt. Then I thought to pour out my fury upon them, so as to accomplish mine anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt. | But they provoked me, and would not hearken to me: they did not every man cast away the abominations of his eyes, neither did they forsake the idols of Egypt: and I said I would pour out my indignation upon them, and accomplish my wrath against them in the midst of the land of Egypt. |
| Ezekiel 20:9 | And I was acting for the honour of my name, so that it might not be made unclean before the eyes of the nations among whom they were, and before whose eyes I gave them knowledge of myself, by taking them out of the land of Egypt. | But I wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations among whom they were, in whose sight I had made myself known unto them in bringing them forth out of the land of Egypt. | But I did otherwise for my name's sake, that it might not be violated before the nations, in the midst of whom they were, and among whom I made myself known to them, to bring them out of the land of Egypt. |
| Ezekiel 20:10 | So I made them go out of the land of Egypt and took them into the waste land. | And I caused them to go forth out of the land of Egypt, and brought them into the wilderness. | Therefore I brought them out from the land of Egypt, and brought them into the desert. |
| Ezekiel 20:11 | And I gave them my rules and made clear to them my orders, which, if a man keeps them, will be life to him. | And I gave them my statutes, and made known unto them mine ordinances, which if a man do, he shall live by them. | And I gave them my statutes, and I shewed them my judgments, which if a man do, he shall live in them. |
| Ezekiel 20:12 | And further, I gave them my Sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, so that it might be clear that I, who make them holy, am the Lord. | And I also gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, that they might know that I [am] Jehovah that hallow them. | Moreover I gave them also my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them: and that they might know that I am the Lord that sanctify them. |
| Ezekiel 20:13 | But the children of Israel would not be controlled by me in the waste land: they were not guided by my rules, and they were turned away from my orders, which, if a man does them, will be life to him; and they had no respect for my Sabbaths: then I said that I would let loose my passion on them in the waste land, and put an end to them. | But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness: they walked not in my statutes, and they rejected mine ordinances, which if a man do, he shall live by them; and my sabbaths they greatly profaned: and I said I would pour out my fury upon them in the wilderness, to consume them. | But the house of Israel provoked me in the desert: they walked not in my statutes, and they cast away my judgments, which if a man do he shall live in them: and they grievously violated my sabbaths. I said therefore that I would pour out my indignation upon them in the desert, and would consume them. |
| Ezekiel 20:14 | And I was acting for the honour of my name, so that it might not be made unclean in the eyes of the nations, before whose eyes I had taken them out. | But I wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, in whose sight I had brought them out. | But I spared them for the sake of my name, lest it should be profaned before the nations, from which I brought them out, in their sight. |
| Ezekiel 20:15 | And further, I gave my oath to them in the waste land, that I would not take them into the land which I had given them, a land flowing with milk and honey, the glory of all lands; | And I also lifted up my hand unto them in the wilderness, that I would not bring them into the land that I had given [them], flowing with milk and honey, which is the ornament of all lands; | So I lifted up my hand over them in the desert, not to bring them into the land which I had given them flowing with milk and honey, the best of all lands. |
| Ezekiel 20:16 | Because they were turned away from my orders, and were not guided by my rules, and had no respect for my Sabbaths: for their hearts went after their images. | because they rejected mine ordinances and walked not in my statutes, and profaned my sabbaths: for their heart went after their idols. | Because they cast off my judgments, and walked not in my statutes, and violated my sabbaths: for their heart went after idols. |
| Ezekiel 20:17 | But still my eye had pity on them and I kept them from destruction and did not put an end to them completely in the waste land. | But mine eye spared them so as not to destroy them, neither did I make a full end of them in the wilderness. | Yet my eye spared them, so that I destroyed them not: neither did I consume them in the desert. |
| Ezekiel 20:18 | And I said to their children in the waste land, Do not be guided by the rules of your fathers or keep their orders or make yourselves unclean with their images: | And I said unto their children in the wilderness, Walk not in the statutes of your fathers, neither keep their ordinances, nor defile yourselves with their idols. | And I said to their children in the wilderness: Walk not in the statutes of your fathers, and observe not their judgments, nor be ye defiled with their idols: |
| Ezekiel 20:19 | I am the Lord your God; be guided by my rules and keep my orders and do them: | I [am] Jehovah your God: walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do them; | I am the Lord your God: walk ye in my statutes, and observe my judgments, and do them. |
| Ezekiel 20:20 | And keep my Sabbaths holy; and they will be a sign between me and you so that it may be clear to you that I am the Lord your God. | and hallow my sabbaths; and they shall be a sign between me and you, that ye may know that I [am] Jehovah your God. | And sanctify my sabbaths, that they may be a sign between me and you: and that you may know that I am the Lord your God. |
| Ezekiel 20:21 | But the children would not be controlled by me; they were not guided by my rules, and they did not keep and do my orders, which, if a man does them, will be life to him; and they had no respect for my Sabbaths: then I said I would let loose my passion on them to give full effect to my wrath against them in the waste land. | And the children rebelled against me: they walked not in my statutes, neither kept mine ordinances to do them, which if a man do, he shall live by them; they profaned my sabbaths: and I said I would pour out my fury upon them, to accomplish mine anger against them in the wilderness. | But their children provoked me, they walked not in my commandments, nor observed my judgments to do them: which if a man do, he shell live in them: and they violated my sabbaths: and I threatened to pour out my indignation upon them, and to accomplish my wrath in them in the desert. |
| Ezekiel 20:22 | And I was acting for the honour of my name, so that it might not be made unclean in the eyes of the nations, before whose eyes I had taken them out. | But I withdrew my hand, and wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be profaned in the sight of the nations, in whose sight I had brought them out. | But I turned away my hand, and wrought for my name's sake, that it might not be violated before the nations, out of which I brought them forth in their sight. |
| Ezekiel 20:23 | Further, I gave my oath to them in the waste land that I would send them wandering among the nations, driving them out among the countries; | I lifted up my hand also unto them in the wilderness, that I would scatter them among the nations, and disperse them through the countries; | Again I lifted up my hand upon them in the wilderness, to disperse them among the nations, and scatter them through the countries : |
| Ezekiel 20:24 | Because they had not done my orders, but had been turned away from my rules, and had not given respect to my Sabbaths, and their eyes were turned to the images of their fathers. | because they performed not mine ordinances, and rejected my statutes, and profaned my sabbaths, and their eyes were after their fathers' idols. | Because they had not done my judgments, and had cast off my statutes, and had violated my sabbaths, and their eyes had been after the idols of their fathers. |
| Ezekiel 20:25 | And further, I gave them rules which were not good and orders in which there was no life for them; | And I also gave them statutes that were not good, and ordinances whereby they should not live; | Therefore I also gave them statutes that were not good, and judgments, in which they shall not live. |
| Ezekiel 20:26 | I made them unclean in the offerings they gave, causing them to make every first child go through the fire, so that I might put an end to them. | and I defiled them by their own gifts, in that they devoted all that opened the womb, that I might make them desolate, to the end that they might know that I [am] Jehovah. | And I polluted them in their own gifts, when they offered all that opened the womb, for their offences: and they shall know that I am the Lord. |
| Ezekiel 20:27 | For this cause, son of man, say to the children of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: In this your fathers have further put shame on my name by doing wrong against me. | Therefore, son of man, speak unto the house of Israel, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: In this moreover have your fathers blasphemed me, in that they have wrought unfaithfulness against me. | Wherefore speak to the house of Israel, O son of man, and say to them: Thus saith the Lord God: Moreover in this also your fathers blasphemed me, when they had despised and contemned me; |
| Ezekiel 20:28 | For when I had taken them into the land which I made an oath to give to them, then they saw every high hill and every branching tree and made their offerings there, moving me to wrath by their offerings; and there the sweet smell of their offerings went up and their drink offerings were drained out. | When I had brought them into the land which I had lifted up my hand to give unto them, then they saw every high hill and all the thick trees, and they offered there their sacrifices, and there they presented the provocation of their offering; and there they placed their sweet savour, and there poured out their drink-offerings. | And I had brought them into the land, for which I lifted up my hand to give it them: they saw every high hill, and every shady tree, and there they sacrificed their victims: and there they presented the provocation of their offerings, and there they set their sweet odours, and poured forth their libations. |
| Ezekiel 20:29 | Then I said to them, What is this high place where you go to no purpose? And it is named Bamah to this day. | And I said unto them, What is the high place whither ye go? And the name thereof is called Bamah unto this day. | And I said to them: What meaneth the high place to which you go? and the name thereof was called High-place even to this day. |
| Ezekiel 20:30 | For this cause say to the children of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: Are you making yourselves unclean as your fathers did? are you being untrue to me by going after their disgusting works? | Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Do ye defile yourselves after the manner of your fathers? and do ye commit fornication after their abominations? | Wherefore say to the house of Israel: Thus saith the Lord God: Verily, you are defiled in the way of your fathers, and you commit fornication with their abominations. |
| Ezekiel 20:31 | And when you give your offerings, causing your sons to go through the fire, you make yourselves unclean with all your images to this day; and will you come to me for directions, O children of Israel? By my life, says the Lord, you will get no direction from me. | And when ye offer your gifts, making your sons to pass through the fire, ye defile yourselves with all your idols, even unto this day; and shall I be inquired of by you, O house of Israel? [As] I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, I will not be inquired of by you. | And you defile yourselves with all your: idols unto this day, in the offering of your gifts, when you make your children pass through the fire: and shall I answer you, O house of Israel? As I live, saith the Lord God, I will not answer you. |
| Ezekiel 20:32 | And that which comes into your minds will never take place; when you say, We will be like the nations, like the families of the countries, servants of wood and stone; | And that which cometh into your mind shall not be at all, that ye say, We will be as the nations, as the families of the countries, in serving wood and stone. | Neither shall the thought of your mind come to pass, by which you say: We will be as the Gentiles, and as the families of the earth, to worship stocks and stones. |
| Ezekiel 20:33 | By my life, says the Lord, truly, with a strong hand and with an outstretched arm and with burning wrath let loose, I will be King over you: | [As] I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, verily with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with fury poured out, will I reign over you. | As I live, saith the Lord God, I will reign over you with a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with fury poured out. |
| Ezekiel 20:34 | And I will take you out from the peoples and get you together out of the countries where you are wandering, with a strong hand and with an outstretched arm and with burning wrath let loose: | And I will bring you out from the peoples, and will gather you out of the countries wherein ye are scattered, with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with fury poured out; | And I will bring you out from the people, and I will gather you out of the countries, in which you are scattered, I will reign over you with a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with fury poured out. |
| Ezekiel 20:35 | And I will take you into the waste land of the peoples, and there I will take up the cause with you face to face. | and I will bring you into the wilderness of the peoples, and there will I enter into judgment with you face to face. | And I will bring you into the wilderness of people, and there will I plead with you face to face. |
| Ezekiel 20:36 | As I took up the cause with your fathers in the waste land of the land of Egypt, so will I take up the cause with you says the Lord. | Like as I entered into judgment with your fathers in the wilderness of the land of Egypt, so will I enter into judgment with you, saith the Lord Jehovah. | As I pleaded against your fathers in the desert of the land of Egypt; even so will I judge you, saith the Lord God. |
