Ezekiel 21:1-7
1And the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
2SonH1121 of manH120, setH7760 thy faceH6440 toward JerusalemH3389, and dropH5197 thy word toward the holy placesH4720, and prophesyH5012 against the landH127 of IsraelH3478,
3And sayH559 to the landH127 of IsraelH3478, Thus saithH559 YhwhH3068; Behold, I am against thee, and will draw forthH3318 my swordH2719 out of his sheathH8593, and will cut offH3772 from thee the righteousH6662 and the wickedH7563.
4SeeingH3282 then that I will cut offH3772 from thee the righteousH6662 and the wickedH7563, therefore shall my swordH2719 go forthH3318 out of his sheathH8593 against all fleshH1320 from the southH5045 to the northH6828:
5That all fleshH1320 may knowH3045 that I YhwhH3068 have drawn forthH3318 my swordH2719 out of his sheathH8593: it shall not returnH7725 any more.
6SighH584 therefore, thou sonH1121 of manH120, with the breakingH7670 of thy loinsH4975; and with bitternessH4814 sighH584 before their eyesH5869.
7And it shall be, when they sayH559 unto thee, Wherefore sighestH584 thou? that thou shalt answerH559, For the tidingsH8052; because it comethH935: and every heartH3820 shall meltH4549, and all handsH3027 shall be feebleH7503, and every spiritH7307 shall faintH3543, and all kneesH1290 shall be weakH3212 as waterH4325: behold, it comethH935, and shall be brought to passH1961, saithH5002 the LordH136 YhwhH3069.1
