Ezekiel 28:20-26
New American Standard Bible
Judgment of Sidon
20 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying, 21 “Son of man, (A)set your face toward (B)Sidon, prophesy against her 22 and say, ‘This is what the Lord God says:
“Behold, I am against you, Sidon,
And I will appear in My glory in your midst.
Then they will know that I am the Lord, when I (C)execute judgments against her,
And I will reveal Myself as holy in her.
23 For (D)I will send a plague to her
And blood to her streets,
And the (E)wounded will [a]fall in her midst
By the sword upon her on every side;
Then they will know that I am the Lord.
24 And there will no longer be for the house of Israel a (F)painful thorn or a hurtful thorn bush from any surrounding them who despised them; then they will know that I am the Lord God.”
Israel Regathered
25 ‘This is what the Lord God says: “When I (G)gather the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they are scattered, and show Myself holy among them in the sight of the nations, then they will (H)live on their land which I gave to My servant Jacob. 26 They will (I)live on it securely; and they will (J)build houses, plant vineyards, and live securely when I (K)execute judgments upon all around them who despise them. Then they will know that I am the Lord their God.”’”

A Prophecy Against Sidon
20 The word of the Lord came to me: 21 “Son of man, set your face against(A) Sidon;(B) prophesy against her 22 and say: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘I am against you, Sidon,
and among you I will display my glory.(C)
You will know that I am the Lord,
when I inflict punishment(D) on you
and within you am proved to be holy.(E)
23 I will send a plague upon you
and make blood flow in your streets.
The slain will fall within you,
with the sword against you on every side.
Then you will know that I am the Lord.(F)
24 “‘No longer will the people of Israel have malicious neighbors who are painful briers and sharp thorns.(G) Then they will know that I am the Sovereign Lord.
25 “‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: When I gather(H) the people of Israel from the nations where they have been scattered,(I) I will be proved holy(J) through them in the sight of the nations. Then they will live in their own land, which I gave to my servant Jacob.(K) 26 They will live there in safety(L) and will build houses and plant(M) vineyards; they will live in safety when I inflict punishment(N) on all their neighbors who maligned them. Then they will know that I am the Lord their God.(O)’”
