Chapter 15

Ezekiel · Prophet Ezekiel

¹ And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

Ezk 15:1

² And thou, son of man—of all the wood of the branches that are among the trees of the forest, what shall be made of the wood of the vine? ³ Will they take wood of it to make [it fit] for work? will they take of it a peg to hang any vessel upon it? ⁴ It is only given to the fire to be consumed; the fire consumes that which is yearly pruned of it, and it is utterly gone. Will it be useful for [any] work? ⁵ Not even while it is yet whole will it be [useful] for [any] work: if the fire shall have utterly consumed it, will it still be [fit] for work? ⁶ Therefore say,

Ezk 15:2-6

⁷ And I will set my face against them; they shall go forth of the fire, and [yet] fire shall devour them; and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I have set my face against them. ⁸ And I will give up the land to ruin, because they have utterly transgressed, saith the Lord.

Ezk 15:7-8
