Ezekiel 22

KJ3 Literal Translation — Chapter 22 of 48

1 And the Word of Jehovah was to me, saying,

2 And you, son of man, will you judge, will you judge the bloody city? Then cause her to know all her disgusting things.

3 And you shall say, So says the Lord Jehovah: The city pours out blood in her midst, that her time may come. And she makes idols against herself, to defile herself.
