Give Tyre this message from the Sovereign LORD: "You boasted, O Tyre, 'My beauty is perfect!' 4. You extended your boundaries into the sea. Your builders made your beauty perfect. 5. You were like a great ship built of the finest cypress from Senir. They took a cedar from Lebanon to make a mast for you. 6. They carved your oars from the Oaks of Bashan. Your deck of pine from the coasts of Cyprus was inlaid with ivory. 7. Your sails were made of Egypt's finest linen, and they flew as a banner above you. You stood beneath blue and purple awnings made bright with dyes from the coasts of Elishah. 8. Your oarsmen came from Sidon and Arvad; your helmsmen were skilled men from Tyre itself. 9. Wise old craftsmen from Gebal did the caulking. Ships from every land came with goods to barter for your trade. 10. "Men from distant Persia, Lydia, and Libya served in your great army.

She who was the gateway to the rich trade routes to the east has been broken, and I am the heir! Because she has been made desolate, I will be come wealthy! 3. "Therefore, this is what the Sovereign LORD says: I am your enemy, O Tyre, and I will bring many nations against you, like the waves of the sea crashing against your shoreline. 4. They will destroy the walls of Tyre and tear down its towers. I will scrape away its soil and make it a bare rock! 5. It will be just a rock in the sea, a place for fishermen to spread their nets, for I have spoken, says the Sovereign LORD. Tyre will become the prey of many nations, 6. and its mainland villages will be destroyed by the sword. Then they will know that I am the LORD. 7. "This is what the Sovereign LORD says: From the north I will bring King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon against Tyre. He is king of kings and brings his horses, chariots, charioteers, and great army. 8. First he will destroy your mainland villages. Then he will attack you by building a siege wall, constructing a ramp, and raising a roof of shields against you. 9. He will pound your walls with battering rams and demolish your towers awith sledgehammers. 10. The hooves of his horses will choke the city with dust, and the noise of the charioteers and chariot wheels will shake your walls as they storm through your broken gates. 11. His horseman will trample through every street in the city. They will butcher your people, and your strong pillars will topple. 12. "They will plunder all your riches and merchandise and break down your walls. They will destroy your lovely homes and dump your stones and timbers and even your dust into the sea. 13. I will stop the music of our songs. No more will the sound of harps be heard among your people. 14. I will make your island a bare rock, a place for fishermen to spread their nets. You will never be rebuilt, for I, the LORD, have spoken. Yes, the Sovereign LORD has spoken! Ezekiel 16:1-14 NLT 4. Thank God Father, Son, and Holy Spirit for meeting you today.

15. Then this message came to me from the LORD: 16. "Son of man, with one blow I will take away your dearest treasure. Yet you must not show any sorrow at her death. Do not weep; let there be no tears. 17. Groan silently, but let there be no wailing at her grave. Do not uncover your head or take off your sandals. Do not perform the usual rituals of mourning or accept any food brought to you by consoling friends." 18 So I proclaimed this to the people the next morning, and in the evening my wife died. The next morning I did everything I had been told to do. 19. Then the people asked, "What does all this mean? What are you trying to tell us?" 20. So I said to them, "A message came to me from the LORD, 21. and I was told to give this message to the people of Israel. This is what the Sovereign LORD says: I will defile my Temple, the source of your security and pride, the place your heart delights in. Your sons and daughters whom you left behind in Judea will be slaughtered by the sword. 22. Then you will do as Ezekiel has done. You will not mourn in public or console yourselves by eating the food brought by friends. 23. Your heads will remain covered, and your sandals will not be taken off. You will not mourn or weep, but you will waste away because of your sins. You will mourn privately for all the evil you have done. 24. Ezekiel is an example for you; you will do just as he has done. And when that time comes, you will know that I am the LORD." Ezekiel 24:15-27 NLT 4. Thank God Father, Son, and Holy Spirit for meeting you today. We, Robyn and Biff Thank you for coming today.

1. On January 15, during the ninth year of King Jehoiachin's captivity, this message come to me from the LORD: 2. "Son of man, write down today's date, because on this very day the king of Babylon is beginning his attack against Jerusalem. 3. Then give these rebels an illustration with this message from the Sovereign LORD: "Put a pot on the fire, and pour in some water. 4. Fill it with choice pieces of meat — the rump and the shoulder and all the most tender cuts. 5. Use only the best sheep from the flock, and heap fuel on the fire beneath the pot. Bring the pot to a boil, and cook the bones along with the meat. 6. "Now this is what the Sovereign LORD says: What sorrow awaits Jerusalem, the city of murderers! She is a cooking pot whose corruption can't be cleaned out. Take the meat out in random order, for no piece is better than another. 7. For the blood of her murders is splashed on the rocks. It isn't even spilled on the ground, where the dust could cover it! 8. So I will splash her blood on a rock for all to see, an expression of my anger and vengeance against her. 9. "This is what the Sovereign LORD says: What sorrow awaits Jerusalem, the city of murderers! I myself will pile up the fuel beneath her. 10. Yes, heap on the wood! Let the fire roar to make the pot boil. Cook the meat with many spices, and afterward burn the bones. 11. Now set the empty pot on the coals. Heat it red hot! Burn away the filfth and corruption. 12. But it's hopeless; the corruption can't be cleaned out. So throw it into the fire. 13. Your impurity is your lewdness and the corruption of your idolatry, I tried to cleanse you, but you refused. So now you will remain in your filth until my fury against you has been satisfied. 14. "I, the LORD, have spoken! The time has come, and i won't hold back. I will not change my mind, and I will have no pity on you. You will be judged on the basis of all your wicked actions, says the Sovereign LORD." Ezekiel 24:1-14 NLT 4.

36. The LORD said to me, "Son of man, you must accuse Oholah and Oholibah of all their detestable sins. 37. They have committed both adultery and murder —adultery by worshiping idols and murder by burning as sacrifices the children they bore to me. 38. Furthermore, they have defiled my Temple and violated my Sabbath day! 39. On the very day that they sacrificed their children to their idols, they boldly came into my Temple to worship! They came in and defiled my house. 40. "You sisters sent messengers to distant lands to get men. Then when they arrived, you bathed yourselves, painted your eyelids, and put on your finest jewels for them. 41. You sat with them on a beautifully embroidered couch and put my incense and my sepcial oil on a table that was spread before you. 42. From your room came the sound of many men carousing. They were lustful men and drunkards from the wilderness, who put bracelets on your wrists and beautiful crowns on your heads. 43. Then I said, 'If they really want to have sex with old worn-out prostitutes like these, let them!' 44. And that is what they did. They had sex with Oholah and Oholibah, these shameless prostitutes. 45. But righteous people will judge these sister cities for what they really are adulterers and murderers. 46. "Now this is what the Sovereign LORD says: Bring an army against them and hand them over to be terrorized and plundered. 47. For their enemies will stone them and kill them with swords. They will butcher their sons and daughters and burn their homes. 48. In this way, I will put an end to lewdness and idolatry in the land, and my judgment will be a warning to others not to foolow their wicked example. 49. You will be fully repaid for all your postitution — your worship of idols. Yes, you will suffer the full penalty. Then you will know that I am the Sovereign LORD." Ezekiel 23:36-49 NLT 4.
