Ezekiel 7:14-19
Legacy Standard Bible
14 ‘They have (A)blown the trumpet and made everything ready, but no one is going to the battle, for My wrath is against all [a]their multitude. 15 The (B)sword is outside, and the plague and the famine are inside. He who is in the field will die by the sword; famine and the plague will also devour those in the city. 16 Even when their survivors (C)escape, they will be on the mountains like (D)doves of the valleys, all of them (E)moaning, each over his own iniquity. 17 All (F)hands will hang limp, and all knees will [b]become like water. 18 They will (G)gird themselves with sackcloth, and (H)horror will cover them; and shame will be on all faces and (I)baldness on all their heads. 19 They will (J)throw their silver into the streets, and their gold will become an impure thing; their (K)silver and their gold will not be able to deliver them in the day of the fury of Yahweh. They cannot satisfy their soul, nor can they fill their stomachs, for their iniquity has become an occasion of stumbling.

Ezekiel 7:14-19
Christian Standard Bible
14 They have blown the trumpet(A)
and prepared everything,
but no one goes to war,
for my wrath is on her whole crowd.
15 The sword is on the outside;(B)
plague and famine are on the inside.
Whoever is in the field will die by the sword,
and famine and plague will devour
whoever is in the city.
16 The survivors among them will escape(C)
and live on the mountains.
Like doves of the valley,
all of them will moan,
each over his own iniquity.
17 All their hands will become weak,
and all their knees will run with urine.[a](D)
18 They will put on sackcloth,
and horror will overwhelm them.
Shame will cover all their faces,
and all their heads will be bald.(E)
19 They will throw their silver into the streets,
and their gold will seem like something filthy.(F)
Their silver and gold will be unable to save them
in the day of the Lord’s wrath.(G)
They will not satisfy their appetites
or fill their stomachs,
for these were the stumbling blocks(H)
that brought about their iniquity.
