Ezekiel 21:12-14
The Voice
12 Cry out and wail, son of man!
My sword is against My people;
It swings for all the princes of Israel.
I have deserted them all—princes and people—to the wrath of My sword!
Therefore, beat your thigh, Ezekiel, in front of everyone
So they understand what a tragedy this is.
13 For the test will come;
so what happens if the sword repulses the scepter
And the scepter is gone?
I, the Eternal Lord, say this to you.
14 As for you, son of man, prophesy;
clap your hands loudly!
Let the sword strike two, even three times!
It is a sword honed and polished to massacre!
This sword is ready for the great slaughter,
coming after them on all sides.
