1 Then came H935 certain H582 of the elders H2205 of Israel H3478 unto me, and sat H3427 before H6440 me.
2 And the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 came unto me, saying, H559
3 Son H1121 of man, H120 these men H582 have set up H5927 their idols H1544 in their heart, H3820 and put H5414 the stumblingblock H4383 of their iniquity H5771 before H5227 their face: H6440 should I be enquired H1875 of at all H1875 by them?
4 Therefore speak H1696 unto them, and say H559 unto them, Thus saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD; H3069 Every man H376 of the house H1004 of Israel H3478 that setteth up H5927 his idols H1544 in his heart, H3820 and putteth H7760 the stumblingblock H4383 of his iniquity H5771 before H5227 his face, H6440 and cometh H935 to the prophet; H5030 I the LORD H3068 will answer H6030 him that cometh H935 according to the multitude H7230 of his idols; H1544
5 That I may take H8610 the house H1004 of Israel H3478 in their own heart, H3820 because they are all estranged H2114 from me through their idols. H1544
6 Therefore say H559 unto the house H1004 of Israel, H3478 Thus saith H559 the Lord H136 GOD; H3069 Repent, H7725 and turn H7725 yourselves from your idols; H1544 and turn away H7725 your faces H6440 from all your abominations. H8441
