Ezekiel Chapter 6

¹The word of Yahweh came to me, saying, ²Son of man, set your face toward the mountains of Israel, and prophesy to them, ³and say, You mountains of Israel, hear the word of LordOfMine Yahweh: Thus says LordOfMine Yahweh to the mountains and to the hills, to the watercourses and to the valleys: Behold, I, even I, will bring a sword on you, and I will destroy your high places. ⁴Your altars shall become desolate, and your incense altars shall be broken; and I will throw down your slaughtered men before your idols. ⁵I will lay the dead bodies of the children of Israel before their idols; and I will scatter your bones around your altars. ⁶In all your dwelling places the cities shall be laid waste, and the high places shall be desolate; that your altars may be laid waste and made desolate, and your idols may be broken and cease, and your incense altars may be cut down, and your works may be abolished. ⁷The slaughtered shall fall in the midst of you, and you shall know that I am Yahweh.

⁸Yet I will leave a remnant, in that you shall have some that escape the sword among the nations, when you shall be scattered through the countries. ⁹Those of you that escape shall remember me among the nations where they shall be carried captive, how I have been broken with their lewd heart, which has departed from me, and with their eyes, which play the prostitute after their idols: and they shall loathe themselves in their own sight for the evils which they have committed in all their abominations. ¹⁰They shall know that I am Yahweh: I have not said in vain that I would do this evil to them.

¹¹Thus says LordOfMine Yahweh: Strike with your hand, and stamp with your foot, and say, Alas! because of all the evil abominations of the house of Israel; for they shall fall by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence. ¹²He who is far off shall die of the pestilence; and he who is near shall fall by the sword; and he who remains and is besieged shall die by the famine: thus I will accomplish my wrath on them. ¹³You shall know that I am Yahweh, when their slaughtered men shall be among their idols around their altars, on every high hill, on all the tops of the mountains, and under every green tree, and under every thick oak, the places where they offered pleasant aroma to all their idols. ¹⁴I will stretch out my hand on them, and make the land desolate and waste, from the wilderness toward Diblah, throughout all their habitations: and they shall know that I am Yahweh.

Ezekiel Chapter 7

¹Moreover the word of Yahweh came to me, saying, ²You, son of man, thus says LordOfMine Yahweh to the land of Israel, An end: the end has come on the four corners of the land. ³Now is the end on you, and I will send my anger on you, and will judge you according to your ways; and I will bring on you all your abominations. ⁴My eye will not spare you, nor will I have pity; but I will bring your ways on you, and your abominations shall be in the midst of you. You shall know that I am Yahweh.

⁵Thus says LordOfMine Yahweh: An evil, an only evil; behold, it comes. ⁶An end has come, the end has come; it awakes against you; behold, it comes. ⁷Your doom has come to you, inhabitant of the land: the time has come, the day is near, [a day of] tumult, and not [of] joyful shouting, on the mountains. ⁸Now will I shortly pour out my wrath on you, and accomplish my anger against you, and will judge you according to your ways; and I will bring on you all your abominations. ⁹My eye shall not spare, nor will I have pity: I will bring on you according to your ways; and your abominations shall be in the midst of you; and you shall know that I, Yahweh, do strike.

¹⁰Behold, the day, behold, it comes: your doom is gone forth; the rod has blossomed, pride has budded. ¹¹Violence has risen up into a rod of wickedness. None of them [will remain], nor of their multitude, nor of their wealth. There will be nothing of value among them. ¹²The time has come, the day draws near: don't let the buyer rejoice, nor the seller mourn; for wrath is on all its multitude. ¹³For the seller shall not return to what is sold, although they be yet alive: for the vision is touching the whole multitude of it, none shall return; nor will any strengthen himself in the iniquity of his life.

Psalm 135

¹Praise Yah! Praise the name of Yahweh! Praise him, you servants of Yahweh, ²you who stand in the house of Yahweh, in the courts of our God's house. ³Praise Yah, for Yahweh is good. Sing praises to his name, for that is pleasant. ⁴For Yah has chosen Jacob for himself; Israel for his own possession. ⁵For I know that Yahweh is great, that our Lord is above all gods. ⁶Whatever Yahweh pleased, that he has done, in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps; ⁷who causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth; who makes lightnings with the rain; who brings out the wind from his treasuries; ⁸Who struck the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and animal; ⁹Who sent signs and wonders into the midst of you, Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his servants; ¹⁰who struck many nations, and killed mighty kings, ¹¹Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan, ¹²and gave their land for a heritage, a heritage to Israel, his people. ¹³Your name, Yahweh, endures forever; your renown, Yahweh, throughout all generations. ¹⁴For Yahweh will judge his people, and have compassion on his servants. ¹⁵The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of men's hands. ¹⁶They have mouths, but they can't speak. They have eyes, but they can't see. ¹⁷They have ears, but they can't hear; neither is there any breath in their mouths. ¹⁸Those who make them will be like them; yes, everyone who trusts in them. ¹⁹House of Israel, praise Yahweh! House of Aaron, praise Yahweh! ²⁰House of Levi, praise Yahweh! You who fear Yahweh, praise Yahweh! ²¹Blessed be Yahweh from Zion, Who dwells at Jerusalem. Praise Yah!

Psalm 136

Ephesians Chapter 4

¹So I, the prisoner in the Lord, beg you to walk worthily of the calling with which you were called, ²with all lowliness and humility, with patience, bearing with one another in selfless-love, ³being eager to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. ⁴There is one body and one Spirit, even as you also were called in one hope of your calling, ⁵one Lord, one faith, one baptism, ⁶one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all, and in us all. ⁷But to each one of us the grace was given, according to the measure of the gift of AnointedOne. ⁸Therefore he says, "When he ascended on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts to men." ⁹Now this, "He ascended", what is it but that he also first descended into the lower parts of the earth? ¹⁰He who descended is the one who also ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all things.

¹¹And He also gave some to be ambassadors; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, shepherds and teachers; ¹²for the perfecting of the saints, to the work of serving, to the building up of the body of AnointedOne, ¹³until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a full grown man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of AnointedOne; ¹⁴that we may no longer be children, tossed back and forth and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in craftiness, after the wiles of error; ¹⁵but speaking truth in selfless-love, we may grow up in all things into him who is the head, AnointedOne; ¹⁶from whom all the body, being fitted and knit together through what every joint supplies, according to the working in measure of each individual part, makes the body increase to the building up of itself in selfless-love.

¹⁷So this I say, and testify in the Lord, that you no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles also walk, in the futility of their mind, ¹⁸being darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardening of their hearts. ¹⁹They, having become callous, gave themselves up to lust, to work all uncleanness with greediness. ²⁰But you didn't learn AnointedOne that way, ²¹if indeed you heard him, and were taught in him, even as truth is in Jesus: ²²that you put away, as concerning your former way of life, the old man that grows corrupt after the lusts of deceit, ²³and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind, ²⁴and put on the new man, who in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of truth.
