Behold, I myself have seen it, declares the Lord. 12Go now to lmy place that was in Shiloh, mwhere I made my name dwell at first, and nsee what I did to it because of the evil of my people Israel. 13And now, because you have done all these things, declares the Lord, and owhen I spoke to you persistently you did not listen, and pwhen I called you, you did not answer, 14therefore I will do to qthe house rthat is called by my name, and in which you trust, and to the place that I gave to you and to your fathers, sas I did to Shiloh. 15 tAnd I will cast you out of my sight, uas I cast out all your kinsmen, all the offspring of vEphraim.

Ezekiel 21:23-27

23But to them it will seem like a false divination. wThey have sworn solemn oaths, but he brings their guilt to remembrance, xthat they may be taken.

24Therefore thus says the Lord God: Because you have made your guilt to be remembered, in that your transgressions are uncovered, so that in all your deeds your sins appearbecause you have come to remembrance, yyou shall be taken in hand. 25And you, O profane
Or slain; also verse 29
aawicked one, prince of Israel, abwhose day has come, acthe time of your final punishment,
26thus says the Lord God: Remove the turban and take off the crown. Things shall not remain as they are. adExalt that which is low, and bring low that which is exalted. 27A ruin, ruin, ruin I will make it. aeThis also shall not be, afuntil he comes, the one to whom judgment belongs, and I will give it to him.
