Ezekiel 21:5-7
5So 1humanity will know that I, the Lord, have drawn My sword from its sheath. It will 2not return to its sheath again.”’ 6As for you, son of man, groan with 3a breaking heart and bitter grief; you shall groan in their sight. 7And when they say to you, ‘Why are you groaning?’ you shall say, ‘Because of the 4news, for it is coming; and 5every heart will melt, all hands will go limp, every spirit will be disheartened, and all 6knees will drip with water. Behold, it is coming and it will happen,’ declares the Lord 7God.”
