Ezekiel 21:10-12

Living Bible

^9-11 “Son of dust, tell them this: ‘A sword is being sharpened and polished for terrible slaughter. Now will you laugh? For those far stronger than you have perished beneath its power. It is ready now to hand to the executioner.’ ¹² Son of dust, with sobbing, beat upon your thigh, for that sword shall slay my people and all their leaders. All alike shall die.
