Ezechiël 11:12

Listen to Ezechiël 11:12

Ezechiël 11:12 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 11:12

And ye shall know that I [am] the Lord
(See Gill on Ezekiel 11:10); for ye have not walked in my statutes, neither executed my judgments;

13 Het geschiedde nu, als ik profeteerde, dat Pelatja, de zoon van Benaja, stierf. Toen viel ik neder op mijn aangezicht, en riep met luider stem; en zeide: Ach, Heere HEERE! zult Gij gans een voleinding maken met het overblijfsel van Israel?
14 Toen geschiedde het woord des HEEREN tot mij, zeggende:
