Ezekiel 11:1-3
1599 Geneva Bible
11 1 Who they were that seduced the people of Israel. 5 Against these he prophesieth, showing them how they shall be dispersed abroad. 19 The renewing of the heart cometh of God. 21 He threateneth them that lean unto their own counsels.
1 Moreover, the Spirit lifted me up, and brought me unto the East gate of the Lord’s house, which lieth Eastward, and behold, at the entry of the gate were five and twenty men: among whom I saw Jaazaniah the son of Azzur, and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, the princes of the people.
2 Then said he unto me, Son of man, these are the men that imagine mischief, and devise wicked counsel in this city.
3 For they say, [a]It is not near, let us build houses: this city is the [b]caldron, and we be the flesh.
