Esperanto ESP (La Sankta Biblio 1926 (Esperanto Londona Biblio))
Kaj estis dirite al mi:Ho filo de homo! jen estas la loko de Mia trono,kaj la loko de la plandoj de Miaj piedoj, kie Mi logxos eterne inter la Izraelidoj; kaj la domo de Izrael ne plu malpurigos Mian sanktan nomon, nek ili nek iliaj regxoj, per sia malcxastado kaj per la kadavrajxoj de siaj regxoj sur iliaj altajxoj.
What Does This Mean?
In this verse, God is speaking to Ezekiel and tells him that He will make His home among the people of Israel forever. God promises to dwell there, and expects the people and their leaders to keep the place holy and not defile it with their wrong actions.
Explained for Children
Imagine God as a loving parent saying, 'I want to live in your house forever, but I want you to keep it clean and nice, and not do naughty things that would make me sad about living there.'
Historical Background
This verse is from the book of Ezekiel, written by the prophet Ezekiel around 593-571 BC. It was given to the exiled Israelites in Babylon to encourage them and to remind them of God's promise to return and dwell among them.
Living It Out Today
Today, this verse can remind us to keep our hearts and homes clean and holy, just as God wants His people to keep their temple holy. Think of a time you invited someone special to your house, and how you would make sure everything was nice and welcoming for them.
