Ezekiel 33:20-22
The Voice
20 But you, people of Israel, continue to complain, “The Lord’s way is not fair at all.” I will judge each of you according to what you have done.
21 During the twelfth year of our exile, on the fifth day of the tenth month, someone who had survived the Babylonian attack on Jerusalem brought me news as God said he would:[a] “The city has been captured!” 22 The evening before the Judean refugee came to me, the Eternal took hold of me; and by the time the refugee arrived the next morning, He had opened my mouth, renewed my voice, and broken my silence.

Jerusalem’s Fall Explained
21 In the twelfth year of our exile, in the tenth month on the fifth day, a man who had escaped(B) from Jerusalem came to me and said, “The city has fallen!(C)” 22 Now the evening before the man arrived, the hand of the Lord was on me,(D) and he opened my mouth(E) before the man came to me in the morning. So my mouth was opened and I was no longer silent.(F)
