Ezekiel 21:8-13
8Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying, 9“Son of man, prophesy and tell them that this is what the Lord says:
‘A sword, a sword,sharpened and polished—10it is sharpened for the slaughter,polished to flash like lightning!Should we rejoice in the scepter of My son?The sword despises every such stick.11The sword is appointed to be polished,to be grasped in the hand.It is sharpened and polished,to be placed in the hand of the slayer.
12Cry out and wail,O son of man,for the sword is wielded against My people;it is against all the princes of Israel!They are tossed to the sword with My people;therefore strike your thigh.113Surely testing will come!And what if even the scepter,which the sword despises,does not continue?’declares the Lord GOD.
