Ezekiel 13:5Easy To Read VersionYou have not put soldiers near the broken walls of the city. You have not built walls to protect the family of Israel. So when the day comes for the Lord to punish you, you will lose the war! See the chapter |
If those men are prophets and have the message from the Lord, let them pray. Let them pray about the things that are still in the Lord’s temple. Let them pray about the things that are still in the king’s palace. And let them pray about the things that are still in Jerusalem. Let those prophets pray that all those things will not be taken away to Babylon.”
They will throw their silver \{idols\} into the streets. They will treat their gold \{statues\} like dirty rags! Why? Because those things will not be able to save them when the Lord shows his anger. Those things were nothing but a trap that caused the people to fall (sin). Those things will not give food to the people and they won’t put food in their bellies.
