Ezekiel 9:3-5
1599 Geneva Bible
3 And the glory of the God of Israel was [a]gone up from the Cherub, whereupon he was, and stood on the [b]door of the house, and he called to the man clothed with linen, which had the writer’s inkhorn by his side.
4 And the Lord said unto him, Go through the midst of the city, even through the midst of Jerusalem, and [c]set a mark upon the foreheads of them that [d]mourn, and cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof.
5 And to the other he said, that I might hear, Go ye after him through the city, and smite: let your eye spare none, neither have pity.
