Ezekiel 28:20-23
World English Bible
20 Yahweh’s word came to me, saying, 21 “Son of man, set your face toward Sidon, and prophesy against it, 22 and say, ‘The Lord Yahweh says:
“Behold, I am against you, Sidon.
I will be glorified among you.
Then they will know that I am Yahweh,
when I have executed judgments in her,
and am sanctified in her.
23 For I will send pestilence into her,
and blood into her streets.
The wounded will fall within her,
with the sword on her on every side.
Then they will know that I am Yahweh.
Ezekiel 28:20-23
International Standard Version
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.”
