Readers’ Version

Literal Version

9Then I heard Yahweh call out with a loud voice, saying, “Let the guards come up to the city, each one carrying his destructive weapon.” 2Then wow, six men came out from the pathway of the upper gate that faces north, each carrying his weapon of slaughter. There was a man among them dressed in linen with a wrter’s equipment at his side. Then they went in and stood beside the bronze altar.

3Then the bright light representing Yisrael’s God went from the winged creature where it had been, up to the threshold of the house. Yahweh called to the man dressed in linen who had the writing equipment at his side. 4Yahweh told him, “Go through the middle of Yerushalem City, and make a mark on the foreheads of those who complain and despair about all the disgusting things being done there in the middle of the city.”[ref]

5Then he spoke to the others within my hearing, “Go through the city after him and kill. Don’t let yourselves have compassion, and don’t show any pity. 6Slaughter all the old men, young men and women, little children and women, but don’t approach anyone who has the mark on their head. Begin at my sacred place.” So they began with the elders who were in front of the temple.

7Yahweh told them, “Defile the temple, and fill its courtyards with the dead. Now go.” So they went out and started attacking the city.

8As they were attacking it, I found myself alone and I fell to my knees with my head bowed down to the ground and cried out and said, “Ah, master Yahweh, will you destroy the entire remnant of Yisrael in the outpouring of your rage on Yerushalem?”

9“The disobedience of the people of Yisrael and Yehudah has been extremely bad,” he answered. “The land is full of blood and the city full of perversions, since they say, ‘Yahweh has forgotten this country,’ and ‘Yahweh won’t take any notice.’ 10So then, I won’t show compassion, and I won’t spare them, rather I’ll bring it all on their heads.”

11Then wow, the man dressed in linen who had the writing equipment by his side came back to report, saying, “I’ve done everything you commanded.”
