Ezekiel 21:28-32
English Standard Version
28 “And you, (A)son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus says the Lord God (B)concerning the Ammonites and concerning their reproach; say, (C)A sword, a sword (D)is drawn for the slaughter. (E)It is polished to consume and to flash like lightning— 29 while (F)they see for you false visions, while they divine lies for you—to place you on the necks of the profane wicked, (G)whose day has come, the time of their final punishment. 30 (H)Return it to its sheath. In the place where you were created, in the land of your origin, (I)I will judge you. 31 And (J)I will pour out my indignation upon you; (K)I will blow upon you with the fire of my wrath, and I will deliver you into the hands of (L)brutish men, skillful to destroy. 32 You shall be fuel for the fire. Your blood shall be in the midst of the land. (M)You shall be no more remembered, (N)for I the Lord have spoken.”

28 “And you, son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus says the Lord God concerning the Ammonites, and concerning their reproach; say, A sword, a sword is drawn for the slaughter, it is polished to glitter[a] and to flash like lightning— 29 while they see for you false visions, while they divine lies for you—to be laid on the necks of the unhallowed wicked, whose day has come, the time of their final punishment. 30 Return it to its sheath. In the place where you were created, in the land of your origin, I will judge you. 31 And I will pour out my indignation upon you; I will blow upon you with the fire of my wrath; and I will deliver you into the hands of brutal men, skilful to destroy. 32 You shall be fuel for the fire; your blood shall be in the midst of the land; you shall be no more remembered; for I the Lord have spoken.”

Ezekiel 21:28-32
New International Version
28 “And you, son of man, prophesy and say, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says about the Ammonites(A) and their insults:
“‘A sword,(B) a sword,
drawn for the slaughter,
polished to consume
and to flash like lightning!
29 Despite false visions concerning you
and lying divinations(C) about you,
it will be laid on the necks
of the wicked who are to be slain,
whose day has come,
whose time of punishment has reached its climax.(D)
30 “‘Let the sword return to its sheath.(E)
In the place where you were created,
in the land of your ancestry,(F)
I will judge you.
31 I will pour out my wrath on you
and breathe(G) out my fiery anger(H) against you;
I will deliver you into the hands of brutal men,
men skilled in destruction.(I)
32 You will be fuel for the fire,(J)
your blood will be shed in your land,
you will be remembered(K) no more;
for I the Lord have spoken.’”
