## Ezekiel 24:15-18 in Context (Verses 12–21 KJV)
 
 [12 ](/kjv/ezekiel/24/12) She hath wearied *herself* with lies, and her great scum went not forth out of her: her scum *shall be* in the fire.
 
 [13 ](/kjv/ezekiel/24/13) In thy filthiness *is* lewdness: because I have purged thee, and thou wast not purged, thou shalt not be purged from thy filthiness any more, till I have caused my fury to rest upon thee.
 
 [14 ](/kjv/ezekiel/24/14) I the LORD have spoken *it:* it shall come to pass, and I will do *it;* I will not go back, neither will I spare, neither will I repent; according to thy ways, and according to thy doings, shall they judge thee, saith the Lord GOD.
 
 [15 ](/kjv/ezekiel/24/15) ¶ Also the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
 
 [16 ](/kjv/ezekiel/24/16) Son of man, behold, I take away from thee the desire of thine eyes with a stroke: yet neither shalt thou mourn nor weep, neither shall thy tears run down.*
 
 [17 ](/kjv/ezekiel/24/17) Forbear to cry, make no mourning for the dead, bind the tire of thine head upon thee, and put on thy shoes upon thy feet, and cover not *thy* lips, and eat not the bread of men.**
 
 [18 ](/kjv/ezekiel/24/18) So I spake unto the people in the morning: and at even my wife died; and I did in the morning as I was commanded.
 
 [19 ](/kjv/ezekiel/24/19) ¶ And the people said unto me, Wilt thou not tell us what these *things are* to us, that thou doest *so*?
 
 [20 ](/kjv/ezekiel/24/20) Then I answered them, The word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
 
 [21 ](/kjv/ezekiel/24/21) Speak unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will profane my sanctuary, the excellency of your strength, the desire of your eyes, and that which your soul pitieth; and your sons and your daughters whom ye have left shall fall by the sword.*
