Ezekiel 7:24-27
English Standard Version
24 I will bring (A)the worst of the nations to take possession of their houses. (B)I will put an end to the pride of the strong, (C)and their holy places[a] shall be profaned. 25 (D)When anguish comes, (E)they will seek peace, but there shall be none. 26 (F)Disaster comes upon disaster; (G)rumor follows rumor. (H)They seek a vision from the prophet, while (I)the law[b] perishes from the priest and (J)counsel from the elders. 27 The king mourns, the prince is wrapped in despair, and the hands of the people of the land are paralyzed by terror. According to their way (K)I will do to them, and according to their judgments I will judge them, (L)and they shall know that I am the Lord.”

Ezekiel 7:24-27
Revised Standard Version
24 I will bring the worst of the nations to take possession of their houses; I will put an end to their proud might, and their holy places shall be profaned. 25 When anguish comes, they will seek peace, but there shall be none. 26 Disaster comes upon disaster, rumor follows rumor; they seek a vision from the prophet, but the law perishes from the priest, and counsel from the elders. 27 The king mourns, the prince is wrapped in despair, and the hands of the people of the land are palsied by terror. According to their way I will do to them, and according to their own judgments I will judge them; and they shall know that I am the Lord.”
