Ezekiel 21:25-27
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
25 As for you, vile, wicked prince of Israel,
you whose day has come,
the time of final punishment,(A)
26 thus says the Lord God:
Remove the turban, take off the crown;
things shall not remain as they are.
Exalt that which is low;
humble that which is high.(B)
27 A ruin, a ruin, a ruin—
I will make it!
(Such has never occurred.)
Until he comes whose right it is;
to him I will give it.(C)
Ezekiel 21:25-27
International Standard Version
25 “So now, you dishonored and wicked prince of Israel,
whose day has come
in this time of final punishment,
26 This is what the Lord God says:
‘Remove your turban!
Take off your crown!
Things aren’t going to remain
as they used to be.
What is lowly will be exalted,
and what is lofty will be brought low.
27 A ruin! A ruin!
I’m bringing about ruin!’
But this also will not happen
until he who has authority over it arrives,
because I’ll give it to him.”
