9 Son of man, prophesy and say: 'This is what the Lord says: |'A sword, a sword is sharpened, and also polished. 10 It is sharpened for slaughter, it is polished to flash like lightning! |'Should we rejoice in the scepter of my son? No! The sword despises every tree! 11 'He gave it to be polished, to be grasped in the hand--the sword is sharpened, it is polished--giving it into the hand of the executioner.
