Ezekiel 7:14-19

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁴ They have blown a ram’s horn, and everything is ready. But no one will go into battle, because my fury is against their whole crowd.

¹⁵ “Outside are swords, and inside are plagues and famines. Whoever is in a field will die in battle. Whoever is in the city will be devoured by famines and plagues. ¹⁶ Those who survive will escape to the mountains. They will moan like doves in the valleys. They will moan because of their sins. ¹⁷ Every hand will hang limp, and every knee will be as weak as water. ¹⁸ They will put on sackcloth, and horror will cover them. All their faces will be covered with shame, and every head will be shaved. ¹⁹ They will throw their silver and gold into the streets like garbage. Their silver and gold won’t be able to rescue them on the day of the Lord’s anger. It will no longer satisfy their hunger or fill their stomachs. Their silver and gold caused them to fall into sin.
