Ezekiel 21:11-13
New International Reader's Version
11 The Lord says,
“I have told Nebuchadnezzar to shine his sword.
It is in his hand.
It has been sharpened and shined.
It is ready for the killer’s hand.
12 Son of man, cry out and weep.
The sword is against my people.
It is against all the princes of Israel.
It will kill them

So beat your chest in sorrow.
13 “You can be sure that testing will come. Why does the sword look down on the scepter? Because even the scepter will not continue to rule,” announces the Lord and King.
