8‘Then nations set against him
         On every side from their provinces,
         And they spread their net over him;
         He was captured in their pit.

9‘They put him in a cage with hooks
         And brought him to the king of Babylon;
         They brought him in hunting nets
         So that his voice would be heard no more
         On the mountains of Israel.

10‘Your mother was like a vine in your vineyard,
         Planted by the waters;
         It was fruitful and full of branches
         Because of abundant waters.

11‘And it had strong branches fit for scepters of rulers,
         And its height was raised above the clouds
         So that it was seen in its height with the mass of its branches.

12‘But it was plucked up in fury;
         It was cast down to the ground;
         And the east wind dried up its fruit.
         Its strong branch was torn off
         So that it withered;
         The fire consumed it.

13‘And now it is planted in the wilderness,
         In a dry and thirsty land.

14‘And fire has gone out from its branch;
         It has consumed its shoots and fruit,
         So that there is not in it a strong branch,
         A scepter to rule.’”
         This is a lamentation, and has become a lamentation.

Young's Literal Translation
And set against it do nations Round about from the provinces. And they spread out for it their net, In their pit it hath been caught."All Our Righteousnesses are as Filthy Rags, and we all do Fade as a Leaf, and Our Iniquities, Like the Wind, have Taken us Away. "
Isaiah lxiv. 6, 7.--"All our righteousnesses are as filthy rags, and we all do fade as a leaf, and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away." Not only are the direct breaches of the command uncleanness, and men originally and actually unclean, but even our holy actions, our commanded duties. Take a man's civility, religion, and all his universal inherent righteousness,--all are filthy rags. And here the church confesseth nothing but what God accuseth her of, Isa. lxvi. 8, and chap. i. ver. …

Ezekiel
To a modern taste, Ezekiel does not appeal anything like so powerfully as Isaiah or Jeremiah. He has neither the majesty of the one nor the tenderness and passion of the other. There is much in him that is fantastic, and much that is ritualistic. His imaginations border sometimes on the grotesque and sometimes on the mechanical.
