Ezekiel 33:20-22
1599 Geneva Bible
20 Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equal, O ye house of Israel, I will judge you every one after his ways.
21 Also in the twelfth year of our [a]captivity, in the tenth month, and in the fifth day of the month, one that had escaped out of Jerusalem, came unto me, and said, The city is smitten.
22 Now the [b]hand of the Lord had been upon me in the evening afore he that had escaped, came, and had opened my mouth until he came to me in the morning: and when he had opened my [c]mouth, I was no more dumb.
