Ezekiel 21:11-13

Modern English Version

¹¹ He has given it to be furbished,
    that it may be handled;
the sword is sharpened,
    and it is furbished to give it into the hand of the slayer.
¹² Cry out and howl, son of man;
    for it shall be against My people,
    it shall be against all the officials of Israel.
Terrors by reason of the sword
    shall be upon My people;
therefore strike your thigh.
