Ezekiel 21:14-17 ▼

14 “You therefore, son of man, prophesy and strike your hands together; and let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword for the slain. It is the sword for the great one slain, which surrounds them,

15 that their hearts may melt, and many will be stumbling blocks at all their gates. I have given the glittering sword. Ah! It is made for striking like lightning, it is wrapped up in readiness for slaughter.

16 Show yourself sharp, go to the right; set yourself; go to the left, wherever your edge is appointed.

17 And I will also strike My hands together, and I will cause My wrath to be at rest; I, Yahweh, have spoken.”
