Ezekiel 21:4-6

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁴ Since I will cut off^[a] both the righteous and the wicked, My sword will therefore come out of its sheath against everyone from the south to the north.^{(A) 5} So all the people will know that I, Yahweh, have taken My sword from its sheath—it will not be sheathed again.^(B)

⁶ “But you, son of man, groan! Groan bitterly with a broken heart^[b] right before their eyes.
