Revised Version 1895
Ezekiel 21:8-17
8And the wordH559 of the LORDH3068 cameH3318 unto meH413, sayingH559,
9Son of manH7563, prophesy, and say, ThusH3651 saith the LORDH6662: Say, A swordH2719, a swordH2719, it is sharpened, and also furbished:
10it is sharpened that it may makeH3045 a slaughter; it is furbished that it may be as lightning: shall weH3588 then makeH3045 mirth? the rod of my son, it contemneth everyH3605 tree.
11And it is given to be furbished, that it may be handled: the sword, it is sharpened, yea, it is furbished, to give it into the hand of the slayer.
12Cry and howl, son of manH3605: for it is uponH5921 my peopleH3820, it is uponH5921 allH3605 the princes of Israel: they are deliveredH3027 over to the sword with my peopleH3820: smite therefore uponH5921 thy thigh.
13For there is a trial; and whatH1697 ifH1961 even the rod that contemneth shall be no more? saith the LordH3068 GODH3068.
14Thou therefore, sonH1121 of manH120, prophesyH5012, and smite thine hands togetherH1571; and let the swordH2719 be doubled the third time, the swordH2719 of the deadly wounded: it is the swordH2719 of the great one that is deadly wounded, whichH2719 entereth intoH2719 their chambers.
15I have set the pointH1300 of the sword againstH3605 allH3605 their gates, that their heart may melt, and their stumblings be multiplied: ah! it is madeH1961 as lightningH1300, it is pointed for slaughterH2874.
16Gather thee together, go to the right; setH5414 thyself in array, go to the leftH5414; whithersoever thy face is setH5414.
17I will also smite mine hands togetherH2199, and I will satisfy my fury: I the LORD have spokenH413 it.
