Context of Ezekiel 7:8

6An end has come; the end has come! It has awakened against you. Look, it is coming! 7Doom has come on you, inhabitants of the land. The time has come; the day is near. There will be panic on the mountains and not celebration. I will pour out my wrath on you very soon; I will exhaust my anger against you and judge you according to your ways. I will punish you for all your detestable practices. 9I will not look on you with pity or spare you. I will punish you for your ways and for your detestable practices within you. Then you will know that it is I, the Lord, who strikes. 10Here is the day! Here it comes! Doom is on its way. The rod has blossomed; arrogance has bloomed.

They would feel his judgment in their own lives.
