Ezequiel 32

Проучване

   

1 Y aconteció en el año duodécimo, en el mes duodécimo, al primero del mes, que vino Palabra del SEÑOR a mí, diciendo:

2 Hijo de hombre, levanta endechas sobre Faraón rey de Egipto, y dile: A leoncillo de naciones eres semejante, y eres como el dragón en los mares, que secabas tus ríos, y enturbiabas las aguas con tus pies, y hollabas sus riberas.

3 Así dijo el Señor DIOS: Yo extenderé sobre ti mi red con reunión de muchos pueblos, y te harán subir con mi red.

4 Y te dejaré en tierra, te echaré sobre la faz del campo, y haré que se asienten sobre ti todas las aves del cielo, y saciaré de ti las bestias de toda la tierra.

5 Y pondré tus carnes sobre los montes, y llenaré los valles de tu altura.

6 Y regaré de tu sangre la tierra donde nadas, hasta los montes; y los arroyos se llenarán de ti.

7 Y cuando te hubiere muerto, cubriré los cielos, y haré entenebrecer sus estrellas; el sol cubriré con nublado, y la luna no hará resplandecer su luz.

8 Todas las lumbreras de luz haré entenebrecer en el cielo por ti, y pondré tinieblas sobre tu tierra, dijo el Señor DIOS.

9 Y entristeceré el corazón de muchos pueblos, cuando llevare tu quebrantamiento sobre los gentiles, por las tierras que no conociste.

10 Y haré atónitos sobre ti muchos pueblos, y sus reyes tendrán a causa de ti horror grande, cuando haga resplandecer mi espada delante de sus rostros, y todos se sobresaltarán en sus ánimos a cada momento en el día de tu caída.

11 Porque así dijo el Señor DIOS: La espada del rey de Babilonia vendrá sobre ti.

12 Con espadas de fuertes haré caer tu pueblo; todos ellos serán los fuertes de los gentiles; y destruirán la soberbia de Egipto, y toda su multitud será deshecha.

13 Todas sus bestias destruiré de sobre las muchas aguas; ni más las enturbiará pie de hombre, ni pezuña de bestia las enturbiará.

14 Entonces haré hundir sus aguas, y haré ir sus acequias como aceite, dijo el Señor DIOS.

15 Cuando asolare la tierra de Egipto, y la tierra fuere asolada de su plenitud, cuando herire a todos los que en ella moran, sabrán que yo soy el SEÑOR.

16 Esta es la endecha, y la cantarán; las hijas de los gentiles la cantarán; endecharán sobre Egipto, y sobre toda su multitud, dijo el Señor DIOS.

17 Y aconteció en el año duodécimo, a los quince del mes, que vino Palabra del SEÑOR a mí, diciendo:

18 Hijo de hombre, endecha sobre la multitud de Egipto, y despéñalo a él, y a las villas de los gentiles fuertes, en la tierra de los profundos, con los que descienden a la sepultura.

19 Porque eres tan hermoso, desciende, y yace con los incircuncisos.

20 Entre los muertos a cuchillo caerán; al cuchillo es entregado; traedlo a él y a todos sus pueblos.

21 De en medio del infierno hablarán a él los fuertes de los fuertes, con los que le ayudaron, que descendieron, y yacen con los incircuncisos muertos a cuchillo.

22 Allí el Assur con todo su ayuntamiento; en derredor de él están sus sepulcros; todos ellos cayeron muertos a cuchillo.

23 Sus sepulcros fueron puestos a los lados de la huesa, y su ayuntamiento está por los alrededores de su sepulcro; todos ellos cayeron muertos a cuchillo, los cuales pusieron miedo en la tierra de los vivientes.

24 Allí Elam, y toda su multitud por los alrededores de su sepulcro; todos ellos cayeron muertos a cuchillo, los cuales descendieron incircuncisos a los más profundos lugares de la tierra, porque pusieron su terror en la tierra de los vivientes, mas llevaron su confusión con los que descienden al sepulcro.

25 En medio de los muertos le pusieron cama con toda su multitud; a sus alrededores están sus sepulcros; todos ellos incircuncisos, muertos a cuchillo, porque fue puesto su espanto en la tierra de los vivientes, mas llevaron su confusión con los que descienden al sepulcro; él fue puesto En medio de los muertos.

26 Allí Mesec, y Tubal, y toda su multitud, sus sepulcros en sus alrededores; todos ellos incircuncisos muertos a cuchillo, porque habían dado su terror en la tierra de los vivientes.

27 Y no yacerán con los fuertes que cayeron de los incircuncisos, los cuales descendieron al infierno con sus armas de guerra, y pusieron sus espadas debajo de sus cabezas; mas sus pecados estarán sobre sus huesos, porque fueron terror de fuertes en la tierra de los vivientes.

28 Tú, pues, serás quebrantado entre los incircuncisos, y yacerás con los muertos a cuchillo.

29 Allí Idumea, sus reyes y todos sus príncipes, los cuales con su fortaleza fueron puestos con los muertos a cuchillo; ellos yacerán con los incircuncisos, y con los que descienden al sepulcro.

30 Allí los reyes del aquilón, todos ellos, y todos los de Sidón, que con su terror descendieron con los muertos, avergonzados de su fortaleza, yacen también incircuncisos con los muertos a cuchillo, y llevaron su confusión con los que descienden al sepulcro.

31 A éstos verá Faraón, y se consolará sobre toda su multitud; Faraón muerto a cuchillo, y todo su ejército, dijo el Señor DIOS.

32 Porque yo puse mi terror en la tierra de los vivientes, también yacerá entre los incircuncisos con los muertos a cuchillo, Faraón y toda su multitud, dijo el Señor DIOS.

41. The successive states of this Church-which are: rise or morning; progression into light, and day; vastation or evening, and consummation or night - it is not permitted to follow up with a description in the same manner as we before described the states of the Most Ancient Church, because the states of that Church cannot be so collected from our Word; for the posterity of Noah, through his three sons, is recorded only in a summary, in one or two pages; and, moreover, that Church was spread through many kingdoms, and in each kingdom it differed, and hence that Church underwent and ran through the states mentioned in a different manner.

[2] That THE FIRST AND SECOND STATE THEREOF in the regions round about the Jordan and about Egypt, was like the "garden of Jehovah," is evident from the words:

The plain of Jordan... was... like the garden of Jehovah, like the land of Egypt, where thou comest unto Zoar (Gen. 13:10).

And that the like was the case with Tyre, appears from the following:

Thou prince of Tyre,... full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty. Thou hast been in... the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering;... thou was perfect in thy ways, from the day that thou wast created until perversity was found in thee. (Ezek. 28:12-15).

That Asshur was like a "cedar in Lebanon," appears from the following:

Behold, Asshur is a cedar in Lebanon, beautiful in branch, lofty in height;... all the birds of the heavens nested in his branches, and under his branches did every beast of the field bring forth its young, and in his shadow dwelt all great nations:... No tree in the garden of God was equal to him in beauty,... and all those trees of Eden, that were in the garden of God, envied him (Ezek. 31:3-9).

That wisdom flourished in Arabia, is evident from the queen of Sheba's journey to Solomon (1 Kings 10:1-13); also from the three wise men who came to the new-born Jesus, a star going before them (Matt. 2:1-12).

[3] THE THIRD AND FOURTH STATE OF THAT CHURCH, which was that of its vastation and consummation, is described in various places in the Word, both in its historical and prophetical parts. The consummation of the nations round about the Jordan, or round about the land of Canaan, is described by the destruction of Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboim (Gen. 19); the consummation of the Church of the nations within the Jordan, or in the land of Canaan, is described in Joshua and in the Book of Judges by the expulsion of some and the extermination of others. The consummation of that Church in Egypt, is described by the drowning of Pharaoh and the Egyptians in the Red Sea (Exod. 14). And so on.

Genesis 19

Проучване

   

1 The two angels came to Sodom at evening. Lot sat in the gate of Sodom. Lot saw them, and rose up to meet them. He bowed himself with his face to the earth,

2 and he said, "See now, my lords, please turn aside into your servant's house, stay all night, wash your feet, and you can rise up early, and go on your way." They said, "No, but we will stay in the street all night."

3 He urged them greatly, and they came in with him, and entered into his house. He made them a feast, and baked unleavened bread, and they ate.

4 But before they lay down, the men of the city, the men of Sodom, surrounded the house, both young and old, all the people from every quarter.

5 They called to Lot, and said to him, "Where are the men who came in to you this night? Bring them out to us, that we may have sex with them."

6 Lot went out to them to the door, and shut the door after him.

7 He said, "Please, my brothers, don't act so wickedly.

8 See now, I have two virgin daughters. Please let me bring them out to you, and you may do to them what seems good to you. Only don't do anything to these men, because they have come under the shadow of my roof."

9 They said, "Stand back!" Then they said, "This one fellow came in to live as a foreigner, and he appoints himself a judge. Now will we deal worse with you, than with them!" They pressed hard on the man Lot, and drew near to break the door.

10 But the men put forth their hand, and brought Lot into the house to them, and shut the door.

11 They struck the men who were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great, so that they wearied themselves to find the door.

12 The men said to Lot, "Do you have anybody else here? Sons-in-law, your sons, your daughters, and whoever you have in the city, bring them out of the place:

13 for we will destroy this place, because the outcry against them has grown great before Yahweh that Yahweh has sent us to destroy it."

14 Lot went out, and spoke to his sons-in-law, who were pledged to marry his daughters, and said, "Get up! Get out of this place, for Yahweh will destroy the city." But he seemed to his sons-in-law to be joking.

15 When the morning came, then the angels hurried Lot, saying, "Get up! Take your wife, and your two daughters who are here, lest you be consumed in the iniquity of the city."

16 But he lingered; and the men grabbed his hand, his wife's hand, and his two daughters' hands, Yahweh being merciful to him; and they took him out, and set him outside of the city.

17 It came to pass, when they had taken them out, that he said, "Escape for your life! Don't look behind you, and don't stay anywhere in the plain. Escape to the mountains, lest you be consumed!"

18 Lot said to them, "Oh, not so, my lord.

19 See now, your servant has found favor in your sight, and you have magnified your loving kindness, which you have shown to me in saving my life. I can't escape to the mountain, lest evil overtake me, and I die.

20 See now, this city is near to flee to, and it is a little one. Oh let me escape there (isn't it a little one?), and my soul will live."

21 He said to him, "Behold, I have granted your request concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow the city of which you have spoken.

22 Hurry, escape there, for I can't do anything until you get there." Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.

23 The sun had risen on the earth when Lot came to Zoar.

24 Then Yahweh rained on Sodom and on Gomorrah sulfur and fire from Yahweh out of the sky.

25 He overthrew those cities, all the plain, all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew on the ground.

26 But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.

27 Abraham got up early in the morning to the place where he had stood before Yahweh.

28 He looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and looked, and saw that the smoke of the land went up as the smoke of a furnace.

29 It happened, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the middle of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in which Lot lived.

30 Lot went up out of Zoar, and lived in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he was afraid to live in Zoar. He lived in a cave with his two daughters.

31 The firstborn said to the younger, "Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in to us in the way of all the earth.

32 Come, let's make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve our father's seed."

33 They made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father. He didn't know when she lay down, nor when she arose.

34 It came to pass on the next day, that the firstborn said to the younger, "Behold, I lay last night with my father. Let us make him drink wine again, tonight. You go in, and lie with him, that we may preserve our father's seed."

35 They made their father drink wine that night also. The younger went and lay with him. He didn't know when she lay down, nor when she got up.

36 Thus both of Lot's daughters were with child by their father.

37 The firstborn bore a son, and named him Moab. He is the father of the Moabites to this day.

38 The younger also bore a son, and called his name Ben Ammi. He is the father of the children of Ammon to this day.
