Chapter 11 of Ezekiel—New American Standard Bible (NASB)

  1. ¶ Moreover, the 1Spirit lifted me up and brought me to the east gate of the LORD’S house which faced eastward. And behold, there were twenty-five men at the entrance of the gate, and among them I saw Jaazaniah son of Azzur and 2Pelatiah son of Benaiah, leaders of the people.
  2. He said to me, “Son of man, these are the men who devise iniquity and 3give evil advice in this city,
  3. who say, ‘The time is not near to build houses. [a]This 4city is the pot and we are the flesh.’
  4. Therefore, 5prophesy against them, son of man, prophesy!”
  5. ¶ Then the Spirit of the LORD fell upon me, and He said to me, “Say, ‘Thus says the LORD, “So you think, house of Israel, for 6I know [b]your 7thoughts.
  6. You have 8multiplied your slain in this city, filling its streets with [c]them.”
  7. Therefore, thus says the Lord [d]GOD, “Your 9slain whom you have laid in the midst of [e]the city are the flesh and this city is the pot; but [f]I will 10bring you out of it.
  8. You have 11feared a sword; so I will 12bring a sword upon you,” the Lord GOD declares.
  9. “And I will bring you out of the midst of [g]the city and deliver you into the hands of 13strangers and 14execute judgments against you.
  10. You will 15fall by the sword. I will judge you to the 16border of Israel; so you shall know that I am the LORD.
  11. This city will 17not be a pot for you, nor will you be flesh in the midst of it, but I will judge you to the border of Israel.
  12. Thus you will know that I am the LORD; for you have not walked in My statutes nor have you 18executed My ordinances, but have acted according to the ordinances of the 19nations around you.”’”
  13. ¶ Now it came about as I prophesied, that 20Pelatiah son of Benaiah died. Then I fell on my face and cried out with a loud voice and said, “21Alas, Lord GOD! Will You bring the remnant of Israel to a complete end?”
  14. ¶ Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
  15. “Son of man, your brothers, your [h]relatives, [i]your fellow exiles and the whole house of Israel, all of them, are those to whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, ‘Go far from the LORD; this land has been given 22us as a possession.’
  16. Therefore say, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD, “Though I had removed them far away among the nations and though I had scattered them among the countries, yet I was a 23sanctuary for them a little while in the countries where they had gone.”’
  17. Therefore say, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD, “I will 24gather you from the peoples and assemble you out of the countries among which you have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.”’
  18. When they come there, they will 25remove all its 26detestable things and all its abominations from it.
  19. And I will 27give them one heart, and put a new spirit within [j]them. And I will take the 28heart of stone out of their flesh and give them a 29heart of flesh,
  20. that they may 30walk in My statutes and keep My ordinances and do them. Then they will be 31My people, and I shall be their God.
  21. [k]But as for those whose hearts go after their 32detestable things and abominations, I will 33bring their conduct down on their heads,” declares the Lord GOD.
  22. ¶ Then the cherubim 34lifted up their wings with the wheels beside them, and 35the glory of the God of Israel [l]hovered over them.
  23. The 36glory of the LORD went up from the midst of the city and 37stood over the mountain which is east of the city.
  24. And the 38Spirit lifted me up and brought me in a vision by the Spirit of God to the exiles [m]in Chaldea. So the vision that I had seen [n]39left me.
  25. Then I 40told the exiles all the things that the LORD had shown me.

    The NWT adds words to the text that are not in the greek Manuscripts to fit it's own doctrinal position for example

    Compare the wording of the NWT and the NKJV at Colossians 1:15-17

    NKJV says

    15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. 17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist.

    NWT says

    15 He is the image of the invisible God,the firstborn OF all creation;16 because by means of him all OTHER things were created in the heavens and on the earth, the things visible and the things invisible,whether they are thrones or lordships or governments or authorities. All OTHER things have been created through him and for him. 17 Also, he is before all OTHER things,and by means of him all OTHER things were made to exist,

    The word “other” is not in the Greek but they add it Why? So they can decieve their followers into thinking that Christ was created by the Father and that he then created other things, that is not what the Greek says.

      Truth is from God and those that follow him. As for lies? John8:44

      Kiamia, I noticed you used a modern version of kjv to make your point about the nwt.

      Why didn’t you use the original kjv of col1:15?

      Is it because it disproves your point? It proves the opposite of what you wrote?

      Here is kjv col1:15 ¶” Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn OF every creature:“

      Now I appeal to your Christian nature to correct your mistake as God is watching each of us, and let us bless the God of Jesus his father.

      Kjv 1Pe 1:3  Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ….

    Joshua, Jehovah’s Witnesses have never denied the deity of the Messiah in his prehuman existence. While on Earth he was fully 100% human. I do not mean he was a mere human, he was not affected by Adam’s unfaithful behavior, he was sinless.

    When i do read some comments and seeing that its the same people that are supposed to be called believers but are talking ill of other denominations, it hurts. Let us all remember that We should judge not

      The bible tells us to test the spirits. Satan disguises himself as angel of light. So yes some denomination are not teaching the truth. You are responsible for judging which ones are not. You have to judge the truth at all times. this is what the bible teaches

    The NWT is a very good translation. Dr. Jason David BeDuhn PhD attests to that in his book Truth in Translation. drive.google.com/...5p16melHzg8/view

      The NWT is Satanic filth to its very core.

      The JW Cult is Satanic to its very core.

      Praise Yahweh I will never be a victim of JW brainwashing. If I burn in Hell for eternity or I am ultimately annihilated so be it

      May Yahweh's curse rest on the Watchtower Society and its Satanic leadership

      NWT is a false translation that takes away from the deity of Jesus !

    Thank you for taking the time to provide this service. I like seeing the NASB on your web page in the same format as I read on paper. On other sites, the text area is smaller, and so I have to keep scrolling down to read and sometimes I lose the context. So I really appreciate the format.

    As far as the NWT, you are certainly free to do whatever you think best with your own web pages. I'd suggest that you make a note anytime you have a translation that is associated with only one denomination or church, for example:
    New World Translation (Jehovah's Witness version).

    In Jesus' parable of the wheat and the tares. the main idea seems to be that you can't easily distinguish between God's people and not-God's people on this earth, so our Lord's response is to wait until they are shown to be the kind of people they are inside. But the NWT seems like false teaching to me. So I think the warning passages from Jesus' apostles are more applicable, as in 2 Peter 3:15-16, when he talks about Paul's writings:
    "There are some things in them that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other Scriptures."
    And we also have the positive exhortations, as in 2 Timothy 2:15:
    "Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth."

      Your suggestion regarding the denominational flagging is duly noted. But I can’t help but wonder, wouldn’t a Catholic also want “Protestant versions” marked as well?

      As for the parable, I’m pretty sure the slaves were convinced in their own minds that they could tell the tares from the wheat. After all, aren’t they the ones who identified the problem in the first place? But the master obviously thought otherwise.

      Furthermore, even at the time when Jesus himself was walking the earth, not everybody who claimed fellowship actually followed him causing John to inquire at Mark 9:39, “Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we tried to prevent him because he was not following us.” But Jesus said, “Do not hinder him . . . for he who is not against us is for us.”

    Hello, question.. why have you included the NWT with other legitimate bible translations? Or why have you not atleast included a warning to readers? Don't you fear that someone could be influenced by the Watchtower's intentional heresies? Thank you.

      Please site these intentional heresies. I am well versed in the watch tower outline and agree they are in many ways incorrect but i also bet i can point many out from EVERY established or main denomination. There is much to learn from them all as one who drinks milk?

      Judge not lest ye be judged, that is not to pass judgement on you either brother.

      I debate with scripture. I don't hold it to be true that Michael is Y'Shua HaMeshiach but I also firmly hold it to be true that our G-d and Heavenly Father are not the word encarnate and only begotten son.

      I love not seeing "lord" which i relate to baal. I feel the catholic church is a satanic establishment and I am aware a freemason started the hovies but there are evil in high places and our fight is also with principalities.

      What i'm saying is that in my darkest hours, those two were some of if not the only ones who would bring a Bible and eucharist and pray with me.

      We all fall short of the glory of G-d.

      Don't forget the NWT was recognized as the most accurate translation on Jeopardy.

      Lastly, this is different I noted than the NWT i have read and am very familiar with. Pull up the watchtower page and compare. I truly look forward to getting this one!
