Ezekiel 5:10-12
International Standard Version
10 Fathers will eat their children in your midst. After this, your sons will eat their fathers as I carry out my sentence against you and scatter your survivors to the winds!’
11 “Therefore, as sure as I live,” declares the Lord God, “because you’ve defiled my sanctuary with every loathsome thing and every abomination, I’ll restrain myself, and I’ll show neither pity nor compassion.[a] 12 A third of you will die by pestilence, starving because of the famine in your midst. Another third will die violently by the violence of war[b] around you. The final third I’ll scatter to the wind as I unsheathe my sword to pursue them.
