Ezekiel 12:22-28

Rotherham(i) 22 Son of man, What is this proverb ye have, concerning the soil of Israel, saying,––The days, are prolonged, Therefore, shall every vision, come to nought? 23 Therefore, say unto them, Thus, saith My Lord, Yahweh, I will cause this proverb, to cease, And they shall use it as a proverb no more, in Israel,––But speak unto them, The days, are drawn near, And the substance of every vision. 24 For there shall no more be––Any vision of falsehood, Or divination of deceit, In the midst of the house of Israel. 25 For, I, Yahweh, will speak whatsoever word I please to speak, And it shall be done, It shall not be delayed any more,––For, in your own days, O perverse house, will I speak a word, and perform it, Declareth My Lord, Yahweh. 26 And the word of Yahweh came unto me, saying: 27 Son of man, Lo! the house of Israel, are saying, The vision which he, seeth, is for many days, Yea, for times far away, hath, he, prophesied. 28 Therefore, say unto them, Thus, saith My Lord, Yahweh, None of my words, shall be delayed any more,––Whatsoever word I speak, then, shall it be performed, Declareth My Lord, Yahweh.
