    Ezekiel 14–18 | Turn Yourselves, and Live

    In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we continue through the book of Ezekiel with chapters 14 through 18 from the King James Version. These chapters confront the hidden idols of the heart and the consequences of persistent rebellion. Ezekiel speaks of Jerusalem as a fruitless vine and, through vivid parables and allegories, recalls the Lord’s long history of mercy toward His people even as they repeatedly turn away from Him. Chapter 18 then brings the message into sharp personal focus. Each person is accountable before God for his own way, and the Lord calls His people not simply to accept judgment, but to turn and live. “Make you a new heart and a new spirit,” He says, declaring that He has no pleasure in the death of the one who dies. Settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as Ezekiel chapters 14 to 18 lead us through warning, responsibility, repentance, and the enduring mercy of the God who calls His people back to life. Highlighted Verses Ezekiel 14:6 “Repent, and turn yourselves from your idols; and turn away your faces from all your abominations.” Ezekiel 14:14 “Though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they should deliver but their own souls by their righteousness, saith the Lord GOD.” Ezekiel 16:8 “Yea, I sware unto thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord GOD, and thou becamest mine.” Ezekiel 16:60 “Nevertheless I will remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth, and I will establish unto thee an everlasting covenant.” Ezekiel 17:24 “And all the trees of the field shall know that I the LORD have brought down the high tree, have exalted the low tree.” Ezekiel 18:4 “Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine.” Ezekiel 18:20 “The soul that sinneth, it shall die.” Ezekiel 18:23 “Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord GOD: and not that he should return from his ways, and live?” Ezekiel 18:27 “Again, when the wicked man turneth away from his wickedness that he hath committed, and doeth that which is lawful and right, he shall save his soul alive.” Ezekiel 18:31–32 “Make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel? For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.”

    Ezekiel 6–13 | A New Heart and a New Spirit

    In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we continue through the book of Ezekiel with chapters 6 through 13 from the King James Version. Ezekiel’s visions reveal the depth of Judah’s idolatry and the judgment approaching Jerusalem. The prophet is shown hidden abominations within the temple, the marking of those who grieve over the city’s sins, and the solemn departure of the glory of the Lord from Jerusalem. Yet even within these difficult chapters, God speaks words of hope to His scattered people. Though they have been driven into distant lands, He promises to be “as a little sanctuary” to them. He also looks ahead to restoration, declaring that He will give His people one heart and put a new spirit within them. Ezekiel is also called to act out the coming exile and to confront prophets who offer false assurances of peace. Settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as Ezekiel chapters 6 to 13 remind us of the holiness of God, the seriousness of His word, and His presence with His people even far from home. Highlighted Verses Ezekiel 6:9 “And they that escape of you shall remember me among the nations whither they shall be carried captives.” Ezekiel 8:12 “Then said he unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen what the ancients of the house of Israel do in the dark?” Ezekiel 9:4 “Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof.” Ezekiel 10:18 “Then the glory of the LORD departed from off the threshold of the house.” Ezekiel 11:16 “Although I have cast them far off among the heathen, and although I have scattered them among the countries, yet will I be to them as a little sanctuary in the countries where they shall come.” Ezekiel 11:19 “And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you.” Ezekiel 11:20 “That they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.” Ezekiel 12:28 “There shall none of my words be prolonged any more, but the word which I have spoken shall be done, saith the Lord GOD.” Ezekiel 13:10 “Because, even because they have seduced my people, saying, Peace; and there was no peace.”

    Lamentations 3–5 & Ezekiel 1–5 | Great Is Thy Faithfulness

    In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we conclude the book of Lamentations with chapters 3 through 5 and begin the book of Ezekiel with chapters 1 through 5, read from the King James Version. From the depths of Jerusalem’s sorrow comes one of Scripture’s most beloved declarations of hope: “It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed… they are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.” Lamentations closes with prayer, remembrance, and a longing for the Lord to restore His people. Then, beside the river Chebar in Babylon, the heavens open before the prophet Ezekiel. He beholds an extraordinary vision of living creatures, wheels, fire, and the likeness of the glory of the Lord. Ezekiel is called to speak God’s word to a rebellious people, whether they listen or refuse. Settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as we journey from lament and enduring hope into Ezekiel’s remarkable vision and prophetic calling—a reminder that even in exile, the glory and presence of God are not confined to Jerusalem. Highlighted Verses Lamentations 3:22–23 “It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.” Lamentations 3:24 “The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.” Lamentations 3:25–26 “The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.” Lamentations 3:40 “Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the LORD.” Lamentations 3:57 “Thou drewest near in the day that I called upon thee: thou saidst, Fear not.” Lamentations 5:21 “Turn thou us unto thee, O LORD, and we shall be turned; renew our days as of old.” Ezekiel 1:28 “This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face.” Ezekiel 2:2 “And the spirit entered into me when he spake unto me, and set me upon my feet.” Ezekiel 2:7 “And thou shalt speak my words unto them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.” Ezekiel 3:10 “Son of man, all my words that I shall speak unto thee receive in thine heart, and hear with thine ears.” Ezekiel 3:17 “Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel.”

    Jeremiah 51–52 & Lamentations 1–2 | Tears over Jerusalem

    In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we conclude the book of Jeremiah with chapters 51 and 52 and begin Lamentations with chapters 1 and 2, read from the King James Version. Jeremiah’s final prophecy declares the coming judgment of Babylon, the empire that conquered Judah and destroyed Jerusalem. Then chapter 52 looks back upon Jerusalem’s fall: the city is besieged, the temple is burned, its treasures are carried away, and many of its people are taken into captivity. From this devastation we enter the book of Lamentations, where grief is given a voice. Jerusalem is pictured as a lonely city mourning what has been lost. These opening chapters do not hurry past sorrow or offer easy explanations; instead, they bring suffering honestly before the Lord. Yet even in these solemn passages, prayer remains possible. “Pour out thine heart like water before the face of the Lord.” Settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as we move from Jeremiah’s closing prophecy into the heartfelt lament of a broken city seeking God amid the ruins. Highlighted Verses Jeremiah 51:15 “He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heaven by his understanding.” Jeremiah 51:46 “And lest your heart faint, and ye fear for the rumour that shall be heard in the land.” Jeremiah 51:50 “Ye that have escaped the sword, go away, stand not still: remember the LORD afar off, and let Jerusalem come into your mind.” Jeremiah 52:31 “And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah… that Evilmerodach king of Babylon… lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah.” Lamentations 1:12 “Is it nothing to you, all ye that pass by? behold, and see if there be any sorrow like unto my sorrow.” Lamentations 1:18 “The LORD is righteous; for I have rebelled against his commandment.” Lamentations 2:17 “The LORD hath done that which he had devised; he hath fulfilled his word that he had commanded in the days of old.” Lamentations 2:19 “Arise, cry out in the night: in the beginning of the watches pour out thine heart like water before the face of the Lord.”

    Jeremiah 45–50 | Be Not Afraid, O Jacob My Servant

    In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we continue through the book of Jeremiah with chapters 45 through 50 from the King James Version. Jeremiah first brings a personal word from the Lord to Baruch, his faithful scribe, before the prophecy turns outward toward the surrounding nations. Egypt, the Philistines, Moab, Ammon, Edom, Damascus, Kedar, Elam, and finally Babylon all come beneath the searching word of God. These chapters remind us that no kingdom is beyond the Lord’s authority. Nations may rise in strength and pride, but their power is temporary before the God who governs history. Yet amid these solemn judgments, Jeremiah also speaks words of comfort and restoration to Israel and Judah. The Lord promises that His scattered people will seek Him again, asking the way to Zion, and He assures them that their Redeemer is strong. Settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as Jeremiah chapters 45 to 50 lead us through judgment, justice, remembrance, and the promise of return. Highlighted Verses Jeremiah 45:5 “And seekest thou great things for thyself? seek them not.” Jeremiah 46:27 “But fear not thou, O my servant Jacob, and be not dismayed, O Israel.” Jeremiah 48:10 “Cursed be he that doeth the work of the LORD deceitfully.” Jeremiah 49:11 “Leave thy fatherless children, I will preserve them alive; and let thy widows trust in me.” Jeremiah 49:16 “Thy terribleness hath deceived thee, and the pride of thine heart.” Jeremiah 50:4 “In those days, and in that time, saith the LORD, the children of Israel shall come, they and the children of Judah together, going and weeping: they shall go, and seek the LORD their God.” Jeremiah 50:5 “They shall ask the way to Zion with their faces thitherward.” Jeremiah 50:20 “In those days, and in that time, saith the LORD, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none.” Jeremiah 50:34 “Their Redeemer is strong; the LORD of hosts is his name: he shall throughly plead their cause.”

    Jeremiah 38–44 | The Fall of Jerusalem and a Prophet’s Faithfulness

    In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we continue through the book of Jeremiah with chapters 38 through 44 from the King James Version. Jeremiah’s warnings bring him into greater danger. He is lowered into a muddy dungeon and left to die, until Ebed-melech courageously appeals for his rescue. King Zedekiah secretly seeks Jeremiah’s counsel, but fear keeps him from acting upon the prophet’s words. Soon Jerusalem falls to Babylon, bringing Jeremiah’s long warnings to fulfillment. In the aftermath, a small remnant remains in Judah under Gedaliah. After violence and upheaval threaten their future, the people ask Jeremiah to seek the Lord’s direction and promise to obey whatever God says. The answer is clear: remain in the land and do not fear. Yet fear prevails, and the people flee to Egypt, taking Jeremiah with them. Settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as Jeremiah chapters 38 to 44 remind us of the courage to speak truth, the cost of disregarding God’s counsel, and the faithfulness of the Lord even amid upheaval and loss. Highlighted Verses Jeremiah 38:20 “Obey, I beseech thee, the voice of the LORD, which I speak unto thee: so it shall be well unto thee, and thy soul shall live.” Jeremiah 39:18 “For I will surely deliver thee, and thou shalt not fall by the sword, but thy life shall be for a prey unto thee: because thou hast put thy trust in me, saith the LORD.” Jeremiah 40:4 “And now, behold, I loose thee this day from the chains which were upon thine hand.” Jeremiah 42:3 “That the LORD thy God may shew us the way wherein we may walk, and the thing that we may do.” Jeremiah 42:6 “Whether it be good, or whether it be evil, we will obey the voice of the LORD our God.” Jeremiah 42:11 “Be not afraid of the king of Babylon, of whom ye are afraid; be not afraid of him, saith the LORD: for I am with you to save you, and to deliver you from his hand.” Jeremiah 43:2 “Thou speakest falsely: the LORD our God hath not sent thee to say, Go not into Egypt to sojourn there.” Jeremiah 44:4 “Howbeit I sent unto you all my servants the prophets, rising early and sending them, saying, Oh, do not this abominable thing that I hate.”

    Jeremiah 32–37 | Call Unto Me, and I Will Answer Thee

    In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we continue through the book of Jeremiah with chapters 32 through 37 from the King James Version. Jerusalem is under siege, Jeremiah is confined, and the fall of Judah seems unavoidable. Yet in the midst of these dark circumstances, God tells Jeremiah to purchase a field—a remarkable act of faith pointing toward a future when homes, fields, and vineyards will once again be possessed in the land. These chapters contain some of Jeremiah’s most reassuring promises. “Call unto me, and I will answer thee,” says the Lord. He promises healing, forgiveness, restoration, an everlasting covenant, and the coming of a righteous Branch from the line of David. We also meet the faithful Rechabites, witness King Jehoiakim’s attempt to destroy Jeremiah’s written prophecy, and see the prophet continue speaking God’s word despite rejection and imprisonment. So settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as today’s reading reminds us that even when circumstances seem beyond repair, nothing is too hard for the Lord and His purposes cannot be silenced. Highlighted Verses Jeremiah 32:17 “Ah Lord GOD! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee.” Jeremiah 32:27 “Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?” Jeremiah 32:40 “And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good.” Jeremiah 33:3 “Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.” Jeremiah 33:6 “Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth.” Jeremiah 33:8 “And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, whereby they have sinned against me.” Jeremiah 33:11 “O give thanks to the LORD of hosts: for the LORD is good; for his mercy endureth for ever.” Jeremiah 33:15 “In those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David.” Jeremiah 33:16 “And this is the name wherewith she shall be called, The LORD our righteousness.” Jeremiah 35:14 “The words of Jonadab the son of Rechab, that he commanded his sons not to drink wine, are performed.”

    Jeremiah 26–31 | I Know the Thoughts I Think Toward You

    In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we continue through the book of Jeremiah with chapters 26 through 31 from the King James Version. Jeremiah’s message places him in danger as priests, prophets, and leaders call for his death. Yet he remains faithful to the word God has given him. As false prophets promise a quick end to Babylonian rule, Jeremiah warns that the exile will continue and urges the captives to build homes, plant gardens, raise families, and seek the peace of the place where they now live. Amid these difficult circumstances come some of Jeremiah’s most beloved promises. The Lord tells His people that He knows the thoughts He thinks toward them—thoughts of peace—and promises that those who seek Him with all their heart will find Him. Then the tone turns increasingly toward restoration. God promises healing, return, everlasting love, renewed joy, and a new covenant written not upon tablets of stone but upon the heart: “I will be their God, and they shall be my people.” Settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as Jeremiah chapters 26 to 31 carry us from opposition and exile toward healing, hope, restoration, and the promise of a new covenant. Highlighted Verses Jeremiah 26:13 “Therefore now amend your ways and your doings, and obey the voice of the LORD your God.” Jeremiah 29:7 “And seek the peace of the city whither I have caused you to be carried away captives, and pray unto the LORD for it.” Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil.” Jeremiah 29:13 “And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.” Jeremiah 30:17 “For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the LORD.” Jeremiah 31:3 “Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.” Jeremiah 31:13 “For I will turn their mourning into joy, and will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow.” Jeremiah 31:25 “For I have satiated the weary soul, and I have replenished every sorrowful soul.” Jeremiah 31:31 “Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah.” Jeremiah 31:33 “I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.” Jeremiah 31:34 “For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.”
