Ezekiel 21:3-5

3and say to the land of Israel, ‘Thus says the Lord, “Behold, 1I am against you; and I will draw My sword out of its sheath and cut off from you the 2righteous and the wicked.

4Because I will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked, therefore My sword will go forth from its sheath against 3all flesh from south to north.

5Thus all flesh will know that I, the Lord, have drawn My sword out of its sheath. It will 4not return to its sheath again.”’
