H0853–אֵת–et

Then at the memory of your ways you will be overcome with shame, when I take your sisters, the older and the younger, and give them to you for daughters, but not by your agreement.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶתְהֶ֥ן (אֶתְ) 'et. “<obj.>”

And I will make my agreement with you; and you will be certain that I am the Lord:

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And say, This is what the Lord has said: A great eagle with great wings, full of long feathers of different colours, came to Lebanon, and took the top of the cedar:

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Biting off the highest of its young branches, he took it to the land of Canaan, and put it in a town of traders.

אֵ֛ת 'et “<obj.>”

And there was another eagle with great wings and thick feathers: and now this vine, pushing out its roots to him, sent out its branches in his direction from the bed where it was planted, so that he might give it water.

אוֹתָ֔הּ (אוֹתָ֔) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

Say, This is what the Lord has said: Will it do well? will he not have its roots pulled up and its branches cut off, so that all its young leaves may become dry and it may be pulled up by its roots?

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”אוֹתָ֖הּ (אוֹתָ֖) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

Say now to this uncontrolled people, Are these things not clear to you? Say to them, See, the king of Babylon came to Jerusalem and took its king and its rulers away with him to Babylon;

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”אוֹתָ֛ם (אוֹתָ֛) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

And he took one of the sons of the king and made an agreement with him; and he put him under an oath, and took away the great men of the land:

אֹתוֹ֙ (אֹת) 'o.T “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

So that the kingdom might be made low with no power of lifting itself up, but might keep his agreement to be his servants.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

By my life, says the Lord, truly in the place of the king who made him king, whose oath he put on one side and let his agreement with him be broken, even in Babylon he will come to his death.

אֹת֔וֹ (אֹת֔) 'o.T “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And Pharaoh with his strong army and great forces will be no help to him in the war, when they put up earthworks and make strong walls for the cutting off of lives:

אוֹת֤וֹ (אוֹת֤) 'o.T “<obj.>”

All his best fighting-men will be put to the sword, and the rest will be sent away to every wind: and you will be certain that I the Lord have said it.

וְאֵ֨ת (אֵ֨ת) 'Et “<obj.>”

Why do you make use of this saying about the land of Israel, The fathers have been tasting bitter grapes and the children's teeth are on edge?

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And has not taken flesh with the blood for food, or given worship to the images of the children of Israel; if he has not had connection with his neighbour's wife, or come near to a woman at the time when she is unclean;

וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

Who has taken flesh with the blood as food, and has had connection with his neighbour's wife,

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

And has given out his money at interest and taken great profits: he will certainly not go on living: he has done all these disgusting things: death will certainly be his fate; his blood will be on him.

אֵ֣ת 'et “<obj.>”

Now if he has a son who sees all his father's sins which he has done, and in fear does not do the same:

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Who has not taken the flesh with the blood for food, or given worship to the images of the children of Israel, and has not had connection with his neighbour's wife,

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

But you say, Why does not the son undergo punishment for the evil-doing of the father? When the son has done what is ordered and right, and has kept my rules and done them, life will certainly be his.

אֵ֣ת 'et “<obj.>”אֹתָ֖ם (אֹתָ֖) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

But if the evil-doer, turning away from all the sins which he has done, keeps my rules and does what is ordered and right, life will certainly be his; death will not be his fate.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Again, when the evil-doer, turning away from the evil he has done, does what is ordered and right, he will have life for his soul.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

For this cause I will be your judge, O children of Israel, judging every man by his ways, says the Lord. Come back and be turned from all your sins; so that they may not be the cause of your falling into evil.

אֶתְכֶם֙ (אֶתְ) 'et. “<obj.>”

Put away all your evil-doing in which you have done sin; and make for yourselves a new heart and a new spirit: why are you desiring death, O children of Israel?

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Now it came about in the seventh year, in the fifth month, on the tenth day of the month, that certain of the responsible men of Israel came to get directions from the Lord and were seated before me.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Son of man, say to the responsible men of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: Have you come to get directions from me? By my life, says the Lord, you will get no directions from me.

אֹתִ֖י (אֹתִ֖) 'o.T “<obj.>”
