Ezekiel 7:24-27
Legacy Standard Bible
24 Therefore, I will bring the most evil of the (A)nations, and they will possess their houses. I will also make the (B)pride of the strong ones cease, and their (C)holy places will be profaned. 25 Anguish has come, and they will seek (D)peace, but there will be none. 26 (E)Disaster will come upon disaster, and (F)report will be added to report; then they will seek a (G)vision from a prophet, but the (H)law will be lost from the priest and (I)counsel from the elders. 27 The king will mourn, the prince will be (J)clothed with desolation, and the hands of the people of the land will be dismayed. According to their way I will deal with them, and by their judgments I will judge them. And they will know that I am Yahweh.’”

Ezekiel 7:24-27
Common English Bible
24 I’ll bring up the cruelest nations,
and they will seize their houses.
I’ll break their proud strength,
and their sanctuaries will be defiled.
25 Disaster! It has come!
They seek peace, but there is none.
26 One disaster comes after another,
and rumor follows rumor.
They seek a vision from the prophet.
Instruction disappears from the priest,
and counsel from the elders.
27 The king will go into mourning,
the prince will clothe himself in despair,
and the hands of the land’s people will tremble.
When I do to them as they have done
and judge them by their own justice,
they will know that I am the Lord.
