Ezekiel 13:12 — Meaning and Application

Because, even because they have seduced my people, saying, Peace; and {there was} no peace; and one built up a wall, and, lo, others daubed it with untempered {morter}: {a wall: or, a slight wall}

Say unto them which daub {it} with untempered {morter}, that it shall fall: there shall be an overflowing shower; and ye, O great hailstones, shall fall; and a stormy wind shall rend {it}.

Lo, when the wall is fallen, shall it not be said unto you, Where {is} the daubing wherewith ye have daubed {it}?

Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even rend {it} with a stormy wind in my fury; and there shall be an overflowing shower in mine anger, and great hailstones in {my} fury to consume {it}.

So will I break down the wall that ye have daubed with untempered {morter}, and bring it down to the ground, so that the foundation thereof shall be discovered, and it shall fall, and ye shall be consumed in the midst thereof: and ye shall know that I {am} the LORD.
