Ezekiel 7:15-17
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
15 The sword is outside; disease and hunger are within. Whoever is in the fields will die by the sword; whoever is in the city disease and hunger will devour.(A) 16 If their survivors flee, they will die on the mountains, moaning like doves of the valley on account of their guilt. 17 All their hands will hang limp, and all their knees[a] turn to water.(B)

Ezekiel 7:15-17
New International Version
15 Outside is the sword;
inside are plague and famine.
Those in the country
will die by the sword;
those in the city
will be devoured by famine and plague.(A)
16 The fugitives(B) who escape
will flee to the mountains.
Like doves(C) of the valleys,
they will all moan,
each for their own sins.(D)
17 Every hand will go limp;(E)
every leg will be wet with urine.(F)
