A Prophecy against Sidon

20 The word of the Lord came to me: 21 “Son of man, face Sidon(A) and prophesy against it. 22 You are to say, ‘This is what the Lord God says:

Look! I am against you, Sidon,(B)
and I will display my glory within you.
They will know that I am the Lord
when I execute judgments against her(C)
and demonstrate my holiness through her.
23 I will send a plague against her(D)
and bloodshed in her streets;
the slain will fall within her,
while the sword is against her[a] on every side.
Then they will know that I am the Lord.

And I will appear in My glory in your midst.

And I will reveal Myself as holy in her.

And blood to her streets,
And the (E)wounded will [a]fall in her midst
By the sword upon her on every side;
Then they will know that I am the Lord.
