Ezekiel 7:14-16
Good News Translation
14 The trumpet blows, and everyone gets ready. But no one goes off to war, for God's anger will fall on everyone alike.
Punishment for Israel's Sins
15 There is fighting in the streets, and sickness and hunger in the houses. Anyone who is out in the country will die in the fighting, and anyone in the city will be a victim of sickness and hunger. 16 Some will escape to the mountains like doves frightened from the valleys. All of them will moan over their sins.[a]

Ezekiel 7:14-16
New International Version
14 “‘They have blown the trumpet,(A)
they have made all things ready,
but no one will go into battle,
for my wrath(B) is on the whole crowd.
15 Outside is the sword;
inside are plague and famine.
Those in the country
will die by the sword;
those in the city
will be devoured by famine and plague.(C)
16 The fugitives(D) who escape
will flee to the mountains.
Like doves(E) of the valleys,
they will all moan,
each for their own sins.(F)
