Ezekiel 21:10-12
New American Bible (Revised Edition)

10 and all flesh shall know that I, the Lord, have drawn my sword from its scabbard. It cannot return again.(A)

Act Symbolic of the City’s Fall. 11 As for you, son of man, groan! with shattered loins and bitter grief, groan in their sight. 12 When they ask you, “Why are you groaning?” you shall say: Because of what I heard![a] When it comes every heart shall melt, every hand fall helpless; every spirit will grow faint, and every knee run with water. See, it is coming, it is here!—oracle of the Lord God.
