King James Version with Apocrypha
"Son of man, what is that proverb that ye have in the land of Israel, saying, The days are prolonged, and every vision faileth?"
— Ezekiel 12:22, King James Version with Apocrypha
“Son of man, what is that proverb that ye have in the land of Israel, saying, The days are prolonged, and every vision faileth?”
“Son of man, what is this proverb that ye have in the land of Israel, saying, The days are prolonged, and every vision faileth? ”
“Son of man, what is this proverb that you have in the land of Israel, saying, The days are prolonged, and every vision fails?”
““Son of man, what is this proverb you have in the land of Israel,‘The days pass slowly, and every vision fails’?”
“Son of man, what is this proverb that you have in the land of Israel? saying: The days shall be prolonged, and every vision shall fail.”
“Son of man, what is this saying which you have about the land of Israel, The time is long and every vision comes to nothing?”
And say unto the people of the land, Thus saith the Lord God of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and of the land of Israel; They shall eat their bread with carefulness, and drink their water with astonishment, that her land may be desolate from all that is therein, because of the violence of all them that dwell therein.
And the cities that are inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land shall be desolate; and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
Son of man, what is that proverb that ye have in the land of Israel, saying, The days are prolonged, and every vision faileth?
Tell them therefore, Thus saith the Lord God; I will make this proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel; but say unto them, The days are at hand, and the effect of every vision.
For there shall be no more any vain vision nor flattering divination within the house of Israel.
For I am the Lord: I will speak, and the word that I shall speak shall come to pass; it shall be no more prolonged: for in your days, O rebellious house, will I say the word, and will perform it, saith the Lord God.
