"The LORD’s message came to me:"
— Ezekiel 12:21, NET Bible
“And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,”
“And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying, ”
“The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,”
“And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:”
“And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,”
“And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,”
“Son of man, eat your bread with trembling, and drink your water with anxious shaking.
Then say to the people of the land,‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says about the inhabitants of Jerusalem and of the land of Israel: They will eat their bread with anxiety and drink their water in fright, for their land will be stripped bare of all it contains because of the violence of all who live in it.
The inhabited towns will be left in ruins and the land will be devastated. Then you will know that I am the LORD.’”
The LORD’s message came to me:
“Son of man, what is this proverb you have in the land of Israel,‘The days pass slowly, and every vision fails’?
Therefore tell them,‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says: I hereby end this proverb; they will not recite it in Israel any longer.’ But say to them,‘The days are at hand when every vision will be fulfilled.
For there will no longer be any false visions or flattering omens amidst the house of Israel.
