Chapter 7 of Ezekiel—New American Standard Bible (NASB)

  1. ¶ Moreover, the word of the LORD came to me saying,
  2. “And you, son of man, thus says the Lord [a]GOD to the land of Israel, ‘An 1end! The end is coming on the four corners of the land.
  3. Now the end is upon you, and I will send My anger against you; I will judge you according to your ways and bring all your abominations upon you.
  4. For My eye will have no pity on you, nor will I spare you, but I will 2bring your ways upon you, and your abominations will be among you; then you will 3know that I am the LORD!’
  5. ¶ “Thus says the Lord [b]GOD, ‘A 4disaster, unique disaster, behold it is coming!
  6. An end is coming; the end has come! It has 5awakened against you; behold, it has come!
  7. Your doom has come to you, O inhabitant of the land. The 6time has come, the 7day is near—tumult rather than joyful shouting on the mountains.
  8. Now I will shortly 8pour out My wrath on you and spend My anger against you; 9judge you according to your ways and bring on you all your abominations.
  9. My eye will show no pity nor will I spare. I will [c]repay you according to your ways, while your abominations are in your midst; then you will know that I, the LORD, do the smiting.
  10. ¶ ‘Behold, the day! Behold, it is coming! Your doom has gone forth; the 10rod has budded, arrogance has blossomed.
  11. Violence [d]has grown into a rod of 11wickedness. None of them shall remain, none of their people, none of their 12wealth, nor anything eminent among them.
  12. The 13time has come, the day has arrived. Let not the 14buyer rejoice nor the seller mourn; for 15wrath is against all their multitude.
  13. Indeed, the seller will not [e]16regain [f]what he sold as long as [g]they both live; for the vision regarding all their multitude will not [h]be averted, nor will any of them maintain his life by his iniquity.
  14. ¶ ‘They have 17blown the trumpet and made everything ready, but no one is going to the battle, for My wrath is against all [i]their multitude.
  15. The 18sword is outside and the plague and the famine are within. He who is in the field will die by the sword; famine and the plague will also consume those in the city.
  16. Even when their survivors 19escape, they will be on the mountains like 20doves of the valleys, all of them [j]21mourning, each over his own iniquity.
  17. All 22hands will hang limp and all knees will [k]become like water.
  18. They will 23gird themselves with sackcloth and 24shuddering will overwhelm them; and shame will be on all faces and 25baldness on all their heads.
  19. They will 26fling their silver into the streets and their gold will become an abhorrent thing; their 27silver and their gold will not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD. They cannot satisfy their [l]appetite nor can they fill their stomachs, for their iniquity has become an occasion of stumbling.
  20. ¶ They transformed the beauty of His ornaments into pride, and 28they made the images of their abominations and their detestable things with it; therefore I will make it an abhorrent thing to them.
  21. I will give it into the hands of the 29foreigners as plunder and to the wicked of the earth as spoil, and they will profane it.
  22. I will also turn My 30face from them, and they will profane My secret place; then robbers will enter and profane it.
  23. ¶ ‘31Make the chain, for the land is full of [m]32bloody crimes and the city is 33full of violence.
  24. Therefore, I will bring the worst of the 34nations, and they will possess their houses. I will also make the 35pride of the strong ones cease, and their 36holy places will be profaned.
  25. When anguish comes, they will seek 37peace, but there will be none.
  26. 38Disaster will come upon disaster and 39rumor will be added to rumor; then they will seek a 40vision from a prophet, but the 41law will be lost from the priest and 42counsel from the elders.
  27. The king will mourn, the prince will be 43clothed with horror, and the hands of the people of the land will [n]tremble. According to their conduct I will deal with them, and by their judgments I will judge them. And they will know that I am the LORD.’”

    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!
