Ezekiel 21:3-5

New Living Translation

³ Tell her, ‘This is what the Lord says: I am your enemy, O Israel, and I am about to unsheath my sword to destroy your people—the righteous and the wicked alike. ⁴ Yes, I will cut off both the righteous and the wicked! I will draw my sword against everyone in the land from south to north. ⁵ Everyone in the world will know that I am the Lord. My sword is in my hand, and it will not return to its sheath until its work is finished.’
