Ezekiel 33:27-29
New English Translation
27 “This is what you must say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: As surely as I live, those living in the ruins will die[a] by the sword, those in the open field I will give to the wild beasts for food, and those who are in the strongholds and caves will die of disease. 28 I will turn the land into a desolate ruin; her confident pride will come to an end. The mountains of Israel will be so desolate no one will pass through them. 29 Then they will know that I am the Lord when I turn the land into a desolate ruin because of all the abominable deeds they have committed.’[b]

New American Standard Bible
27 You shall say this to them: ‘This is what the Lord God says: “As I live, those who are in the places of ruins certainly will (A)fall by the sword, and whoever is in the [a]open field I will give to the animals to be devoured, and those who are in the strongholds and in the (B)caves will die of plague. 28 And I will (C)make the land a desolation and a waste, and the (D)pride of her power will be brought to an end; and the mountains of Israel will be deserted so that no one will pass through. 29 Then they will know that I am the Lord, when I make the land a desolation and a waste because of all their abominations which they have committed.”’
