Tree Of Life Version

Ezekiel 7:20-27 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

20. They took pride in their beautiful jewelry and made images of their abominations and their detestable idols. Therefore I made it niddah to them.

21. I will give it into the hands of the strangers as plunder and to the wicked of the earth as spoil, and they will profane it.

22. I will turn My face from them, as they will profane the place I treasure. Robbers will enter it and profane it.

23. “Forge the chain! For the land is full of bloodshed. The city is full of violence.

24. I will bring the wicked of the nations. They will possess their houses. So I will end the pride of the strong, when their holy places are profaned.

25. Shuddering comes. They will seek peace but there will be none.

26. Disaster upon disaster will come, and rumor upon rumor. They will seek a vision from a prophet, but Torah will perish from the kohen and counsel from the elders.

27. The king will mourn. The prince will be clothed with despair. The hands of the people of the land will tremble. By their conduct I will deal with them. By their own standards I will judge them. Then they will know that I am Adonai.”
