Ezekiel 28:20-23
Legacy Standard Bible
Prophesy Against Sidon
20 And the word of Yahweh came to me saying, 21 “Son of man, (A)set your face toward (B)Sidon, prophesy against her 22 and say, ‘Thus says Lord Yahweh,
“Behold, I am against you, O Sidon,
And I will [a]be glorified in your midst.
Then they will know that I am Yahweh when I (C)execute judgments in her,
And I will manifest My holiness in her.
23 For (D)I will send pestilence to her
And blood to her streets,
And the (E)wounded will [b]fall in her midst
By the sword upon her on every side;
Then they will know that I am Yahweh.

The Judgment of Sidon
20 Another message came to me from the Lord, who had this to say:
21 “Son of Man, turn your attention[a] to Sidon and prophesy against her.[b] 22 Tell her:
‘Pay attention to me, Sidon!
I’m against you,
and I’m going to glorify myself right in your midst.’
They’ll learn that I am the Lord
when I carry out these punishments
and manifest my holiness in her midst.
23 I’m going to send disease into that city[c]
and blood into her streets.
People will drop dead in her midst
from the violence done to[d] her from every side.
Then they’ll learn that I am the Lord God.”
