Ezekiel 7:12-18

12Yes, the time has come; the day is here! Buyers should not rejoice over bargains, nor sellers grieve over losses, for all of them will fall under my terrible anger.

13Even if the merchants survive, they will never return to their business. For what God has said applies to everyone— it will not be changed! Not one person whose life is twisted by sin will ever recover.

14“The trumpet calls Israel’s army to mobilize, but no one listens, for my fury is against them all.

15There is war outside the city and disease and famine within. Those outside the city walls will be killed by enemy swords. Those inside the city will die of famine and disease.

16The survivors who escape to the mountains will moan like doves, weeping for their sins.

17Their hands will hang limp, their knees will be weak as water.

18They will dress themselves in burlap; horror and shame will cover them. They will shave their heads in sorrow and remorse.
