Ezekiel 21:14-16

14“You therefore, son of man, prophesy and clap your hands together; and let the sword be 1doubled the third time, the sword for the slain. It is the sword for the great one slain, which surrounds them,

15that their 2hearts may melt, and many 3fall at all their 4gates. I have given the glittering sword. Ah! It is made for striking like lightning, it is wrapped up in readiness for slaughter.

16 5Show yourself sharp, go to the right; set yourself; go to the left, wherever your 6edge is appointed.
