Ezekiel 11:1-11

Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on Ezekiel 11:1-11

1Then the Spirit lifted me up and brought me to the gate of the house of the LORD that faces east. And there at the entrance of the gate were twenty-five men. Among them I saw Jaazaniah son of Azzur and Pelatiah son of Benaiah, who were leaders of the people.
2And the LORD said to me, “Son of man, these are the men who plot evil and give wicked counsel in this city.
3They are saying, ‘Is not the time near to build houses? The city is the cooking pot, and we are the meat.’
4Therefore prophesy against them; prophesy, O son of man!”
5And the Spirit of the LORD fell upon me and told me to declare that this is what the LORD says: “That is what you are thinking, O house of Israel; and I know the thoughts that arise in your minds.
6You have multiplied those you killed in this city and filled its streets with the dead.
7Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: The slain you have laid within this city are the meat, and the city is the pot; but I will remove you from it.
8You fear the sword, so I will bring the sword against you, declares the Lord GOD.
9I will bring you out of the city and deliver you into the hands of foreigners, and I will execute judgments against you.
10You will fall by the sword, and I will judge you even to the borders of Israel. Then you will know that I am the LORD.
11The city will not be a pot for you, nor will you be the meat within it. I will judge you even to the borders of Israel.
