New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Ezekiel 20
46 "Son of man, set your face toward Teman, and speak out against the south and prophesy against the forest land of the Negev,
47 and say to the forest of the Negev, ’Hear the word of the Lord: thus says the Lord God, "Behold, I am about to kindle a fire in you, and it will consume every green tree in you, as well as every dry tree; the blazing flame will not be quenched and the whole surface from south to north will be burned by it.
48 All flesh will see that I, the Lord, have kindled it; it shall not be quenched."’"
49 Then I said, "Ah Lord God! They are saying of me, ’Is he not just speaking parables?’"
Ezekiel 21
1 And the word of the Lord came to me saying,
2 "Son of man, set your face toward Jerusalem, and speak against the sanctuaries and prophesy against the land of Israel;
3 and say to the land of Israel, ’Thus says the Lord, "Behold, I am against you; and I will draw My sword out of its sheath and cut off from you the righteous and the wicked.
4 Because I will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked, therefore My sword will go forth from its sheath against all flesh from south to north.
5 Thus all flesh will know that I, the Lord, have drawn My sword out of its sheath. It will not return to its sheath again."’
6 As for you, son of man, groan with breaking heart and bitter grief, groan in their sight.
7 And when they say to you, ’Why do you groan?’ you shall say, ’Because of the news that is coming; and every heart will melt, all hands will be feeble, every spirit will faint and all knees will be weak as water. Behold, it comes and it will happen,’ declares the Lord God."
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
