Ezekiel 21:20-22
20You shall 1mark a way for the sword to come to 2Rabbah of the sons of Ammon, and to Judah into 3fortified Jerusalem.
21For the king of Babylon stands at the 4parting of the way, at the head of the two ways, to use 5divination; he 6shakes the arrows, he consults the 78household idols, he looks at the liver.
22Into his right hand came the divination, ‘Jerusalem,’ to 9set up battering rams, to open the mouth 10for 11slaughter, to raise the voice with a battle cry, to set up battering rams against the gates, to pile up assault ramps, to build a siege wall.
