Ezekiel 21:28-32

International Children’s Bible

The Punishment of Ammon

²⁸“And you, human being, prophesy and say: ‘This is what the Lord God says about the people of Ammon and their insults:

A sword, a sword
    is pulled out of its holder.
It is polished to kill and destroy.
    It will flash like lightning!
²⁹Prophets see false visions about you
    and prophesy lies about you.
The sword will be put on the necks
    of these evil people who are to be killed.
Their day has come.
    The time of your final punishment has come.
³⁰Put the sword back in its holder.
    I will judge you in the place where you were created.
I will judge you in the land where you were born.
³¹I will pour out my anger against you.
    I will breathe on you with the fire of my anger.
I will hand you over to cruel men
    who are skilled in destruction.
³²You will be like fuel for the fire.
    You will die in the land.
You will not be remembered.
    I, the Lord, have spoken.’”
