Ezekiel 21
And
the
word
of
the
Lord
came
unto
me,
saying,
2 Son
of
man,
set
thy
a
face
toward
Jerusalem,
and
b
drop
thy
word
toward
the
holy
places,
and
prophesy
against
the
c
land
of
Israel,
3 And
say
to
the
land
of
Israel,
Thus
saith
the
Lord;
Behold,
I
am
against
thee,
and
will
draw
forth
my
a
sword
out
of
his
sheath,
and
will
cut
off
from
thee
the
righteous
and
the
wicked.
4 Seeing
then
that
I
will
cut
off
from
thee
the
righteous
and
the
wicked,
therefore
shall
my
sword
go
forth
out
of
his
sheath
against
all
flesh
from
the
south
to
the
north:
5 That
all
flesh
may
know
that
I
the
Lord
have
drawn
forth
my
sword
out
of
his
sheath:
it
shall
not
a
return
any
more.
6 Sigh
therefore,
thou
son
of
man,
with
the
breaking
of
thy
loins;
and
with
bitterness
sigh
before
their
eyes.
7 And
it
shall
be,
when
they
say
unto
thee,
Wherefore
sighest
thou?
that
thou
shalt
answer,
For
the
tidings;
because
it
cometh:
and
every
heart
shall
melt,
and
all
a
hands
shall
be
feeble,
and
every
spirit
shall
faint,
and
all
knees
shall
be
weak
as
water:
behold,
it
cometh,
and
shall
be
brought
to
pass,
saith
the
Lord
God.
8 Again
the
word
of
the
Lord
came
unto
me,
saying,
9 Son
of
man,
prophesy,
and
say,
Thus
saith
the
Lord;
Say,
A
sword,
a
sword
is
sharpened,
and
also
a
furbished:
10 It
is
sharpened
to
make
a
sore
slaughter;
it
is
furbished
that
it
may
glitter:
should
we
then
make
mirth?
it
contemneth
the
rod
of
my
son,
as
every
tree.
11 And
he
hath
given
it
to
be
furbished,
that
it
may
be
a
handled:
this
sword
is
sharpened,
and
it
is
furbished,
to
give
it
into
the
hand
of
the
slayer.
12 Cry
and
howl,
son
of
man:
for
it
shall
be
upon
my
people,
it
shall
be
upon
all
the
princes
of
Israel:
terrors
by
reason
of
the
sword
shall
be
upon
my
people:
smite
therefore
upon
thy
thigh.
13 Because
it
is
a
a
trial,
and
what
if
the
sword
b
contemn
even
the
rod?
it
shall
be
no
more,
saith
the
Lord
God.
14 Thou
therefore,
son
of
man,
prophesy,
and
smite
thine
hands
together,
and
let
the
sword
be
doubled
the
third
time,
the
sword
of
the
slain:
it
is
the
sword
of
the
great
men
that
are
slain,
which
entereth
into
their
privy
chambers.
15 I
have
set
the
point
of
the
sword
against
all
their
gates,
that
their
heart
may
faint,
and
their
ruins
be
multiplied:
ah!
it
is
made
bright,
it
is
wrapped
up
for
the
slaughter.
16 Go
thee
one
way
or
other,
either
on
the
right
hand,
or
on
the
left,
whithersoever
thy
face
is
set.
17 I
will
also
smite
mine
hands
together,
and
I
will
cause
my
a
fury
to
rest:
I
the
Lord
have
said
it.
18 The
word
of
the
Lord
came
unto
me
again,
saying,
19 Also,
thou
son
of
man,
appoint
thee
two
ways,
that
the
sword
of
the
king
of
Babylon
may
come:
both
twain
shall
come
forth
out
of
one
land:
and
choose
thou
a
place,
choose
it
at
the
head
of
the
way
to
the
city.
20 Appoint
a
way,
that
the
sword
may
come
to
a
Rabbath
of
the
Ammonites,
and
to
Judah
in
Jerusalem
the
defenced.
21 For
the
king
of
Babylon
stood
at
the
parting
of
the
way,
at
the
head
of
the
two
ways,
to
use
divination:
he
made
his
arrows
bright,
he
consulted
with
images,
he
looked
in
the
liver.
22 At
his
right
hand
was
the
divination
for
Jerusalem,
to
appoint
captains,
to
open
the
mouth
in
the
slaughter,
to
lift
up
the
voice
with
shouting,
to
appoint
a
battering
rams
against
the
gates,
to
cast
b
a
mount,
and
to
build
c
a
fort.
23 And
it
shall
be
unto
them
as
a
false
divination
in
their
sight,
to
them
that
have
sworn
oaths:
but
he
will
call
to
remembrance
the
iniquity,
that
they
may
be
a
taken.
24 Therefore
thus
saith
the
Lord
God;
Because
ye
have
made
your
iniquity
to
be
remembered,
in
that
your
a
transgressions
are
discovered,
so
that
in
all
your
doings
your
sins
do
appear;
because,
I
say,
that
ye
are
come
to
remembrance,
ye
shall
be
b
taken
with
the
hand.
25 And
thou,
profane
a
wicked
prince
of
Israel,
whose
b
day
is
come,
when
iniquity
shall
have
an
end,
26 Thus
saith
the
Lord
God;
Remove
the
a
diadem,
and
take
off
the
crown:
this
shall
not
be
the
same:
exalt
him
that
is
b
low,
and
abase
him
that
is
high.
27 I
will
overturn,
overturn,
overturn,
it:
and
it
shall
be
no
more,
until
he
a
come
b
whose
c
right
it
is;
and
I
will
give
it
him.
28 And
thou,
son
of
man,
prophesy
and
say,
Thus
saith
the
Lord
God
concerning
the
a
Ammonites,
and
concerning
their
reproach;
even
say
thou,
The
sword,
the
sword
is
drawn:
for
the
slaughter
it
is
b
furbished,
to
consume
because
of
the
glittering:
29
a
Whiles
they
see
vanity
unto
thee,
whiles
they
divine
a
lie
unto
thee,
to
bring
thee
upon
the
necks
of
them
that
are
slain,
of
the
wicked,
whose
day
is
come,
when
their
iniquity
shall
have
an
end.
30 Shall
I
cause
it
to
return
into
his
sheath?
I
will
judge
thee
in
the
place
where
thou
wast
created,
in
the
land
of
thy
nativity.
31 And
I
will
pour
out
mine
a
indignation
upon
thee,
I
will
blow
against
thee
in
the
b
fire
of
my
c
wrath,
and
deliver
thee
into
the
hand
of
brutish
men,
and
skilful
to
destroy.
32 Thou
shalt
be
for
fuel
to
the
fire;
thy
blood
shall
be
in
the
midst
of
the
land;
thou
shalt
be
no
more
remembered:
for
I
the
Lord
have
spoken
it.
