Ezekiel 7:12-18

12The time is coming. The day is near. Buyers will not rejoice, and sellers will not mourn, because ⌞my⌟ fury will be against the whole crowd.

13Sellers will not live long enough to buy back what they have sold. The visions against that crowd will not change. Because of their sins, none of the people will live.

14They have blown a ram’s horn, and everything is ready. But no one will go into battle, because my fury is against their whole crowd.

15“Outside are swords, and inside are plagues and famines. Whoever is in a field will die in battle. Whoever is in the city will be devoured by famines and plagues.

16Those who survive will escape to the mountains. They will moan like doves in the valleys. They will moan because of their sins.

17Every hand will hang limp, and every knee will be as weak as water.

18They will put on sackcloth, and horror will cover them. All their faces will be covered with shame, and every head will be shaved.
