Ezekiel 14:16-18

New Life Version

¹⁶ even if these three men were in the land, as I live,” says the Lord God, “they could not save their sons or their daughters. They alone would be saved, but the country would be laid waste. ¹⁷ If I bring a sword against that country and say, ‘Let the sword pass through the country and cut off man and animal from it,’ ¹⁸ even if these three men were in the land, as I live,” says the Lord God, “they could not save their sons or their daughters. They alone would be saved.
