Lay stumbling blocks
Jeremiah 6:21
Therefore this is what the LORD says: “I will put obstacles
before this people. Fathers and sons alike will stumble over them; neighbors
and friends will perish.”
Ezekiel 3:20
“Again, when a righteous man turns from his righteousness and
does evil, and I put a stumbling block before him, he will die. Since you did
not warn him, he will die for his sin. The righteous things he did will not be
remembered, and I will hold you accountable for his blood.
Romans 9:23
What if he did this to make the riches of his glory known to
the objects of his mercy, whom he prepared in advance for glory—
Lay siege
Ezekiel 4:2-8
2 Then lay siege to it: Erect siege works against it, build a
ramp up to it, set up camps against it and put battering rams around it.
3 Then take an iron pan, place it as an iron wall between you
and the city and turn your face toward it. It will be under siege, and you
shall besiege it. This will be a sign to the house of Israel.
4 “Then lie on your left side and put the sin of the house of
Israel upon yourself. You are to bear their sin for the number of days you lie
on your side.
5 I have assigned you the same number of days as the years of
their sin. So for 390 days you will bear the sin of the house of Israel.
6 “After you have finished this, lie down again, this time on
your right side, and bear the sin of the house of Judah. I have assigned you 40
days, a day for each year.
7 Turn your face toward the siege of Jerusalem and with bared
arm prophesy against her.
8 I will tie you up with ropes so that you cannot turn from
one side to the other until you have finished the days of your siege.
Lay vengeance upon
Ezekiel 25:14-17
14 I will take vengeance on Edom by the hand of my people
Israel, and they will deal with Edom in accordance with my anger and my wrath;
they will know my vengeance, declares the Sovereign LORD.’”
15 “This is what the Sovereign LORD says: ‘Because the
Philistines acted in vengeance and took revenge with malice in their hearts,
and with ancient hostility sought to destroy Judah,
16 therefore this is what the Sovereign LORD says: I am about
to stretch out my hand against the Philistines, and I will cut off the
Kerethites and destroy those remaining along the coast.
17 I will carry out great vengeance on them and punish them
in my wrath. Then they will know that I am the LORD, when I take vengeance on
them. ’”
