Ezra’s Prophetic Call
4 And the word of Yahuah
came unto me, saying,
5 Go your way, and show
my people their sinful deeds,
and their children their
wickedness which they have
done against me, that they

children,
6 Because the sins of their
fathers are increased in them:
for they have forgotten me,
and have offered unto strange
gods.
7 Am I not, even He that
brought them out of the land
of Egypt, from the house
of bondage? but they have
provoked me unto wrath, and
despised my counsels.
8 Pull you off then the hair
of your head, and cast all evil
upon them, for they have not
been obedient unto my law,
but it is a rebellious people.
9 How long shall I forebear
them unto whom I have done
so much good?
10 Many kings have I
destroyed for their sakes, Cf. Ex.14:28;
21:24;
Pharaoh with his servants, Nm.
Jos. 8:12.
and all his power have I
smitten down.
