| 1 | The word of Yahweh came to me, saying, |
| 2 | Son of man, set your face toward Jerusalem, and drop [your word] toward the sanctuaries, and prophesy against the land of Israel; | Ezk 4:3 Ezk 4:7 Ezk 20:46 Ezk 25:2 Ezk 28:21 Ezk 29:2 Ezk 38:2 Eph 6:19 |
| 3 | and tell the land of Israel, Thus says Yahweh: Behold, I am against you, and will draw forth my sword out of its sheath, and will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked. | Ezk 5:8 Ezk 26:3 Jer 21:13 Jer 50:31 Jer 51:25 Nah 2:13 Nah 3:5 |
| 4 | Seeing then that I will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall my sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north: | Ezk 6:11-14 Ezk 7:2 Ezk 20:47 |
| 5 | and all flesh shall know that I, Yahweh, have drawn forth my sword out of its sheath; it shall not return any more. | Ezk 20:48 Nm 14:21-23 Dt 29:24-28 1Ki 9:7-9 |
| 6 | Sigh therefore, you son of man; with the breaking of your loins and with bitterness shall you sigh before their eyes. | Ezk 21:12 Ezk 6:11 Ezk 9:4 Isa 22:4 Jer 4:19 Jer 9:17-21 Jn 11:33-35 |
| 7 | It shall be, when they tell you, Why do you sigh? that you shall say, Because of the news, for it comes; and every heart shall melt, and all hands shall be feeble, and every spirit shall faint, and all knees shall be weak as water: behold, it comes, and it shall be done, says the Lord Yahweh. | Ezk 12:9-11 Ezk 20:49 Ezk 24:19 |
| 8 | The word of Yahweh came to me, saying, |
| 9 | Son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus says Yahweh: Say, A sword, a sword, it is sharpened, and also furbished; | Ezk 21:3 Ezk 21:15 Ezk 21:28 Dt 32:41 Dt 32:42 Jb 20:25 Isa 66:16 Jer 12:12 Jer 15:2 Am 9:4 |
| 10 | it is sharpened that it may make a slaughter; it is furbished that it may be as lightning: shall we then make mirth? the rod of my son, it condemns every tree. | Jer 46:4 Nah 3:3 Hab 3:11 |
| 11 | It is given to be furbished, that it may be handled: the sword, it is sharpened, yes, it is furbished, to give it into the hand of the killer. | Ezk 21:19 Jer 25:9 Jer 25:33 Jer 51:20-23 |
| 12 | Cry and wail, son of man; for it is on my people, it is on all the princes of Israel: they are delivered over to the sword with my people; strike therefore on your thigh. | Ezk 21:6 Ezk 9:8 Ezk 30:2 Jer 25:34 Jl 1:13 Mic 1:8 |
| 13 | For there is a trial; and what if even the rod that condemns shall be no more? says the Lord Yahweh. | Jb 9:23 2Co 8:2 |
| 14 | You therefore, son of man, prophesy, and strike your hands together; and let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of the deadly wounded: it is the sword of the great one who is deadly wounded, which enters into their chambers. | Ezk 21:17 Ezk 6:11 Nm 24:10 |
| 15 | I have set the threatening sword against all their gates, that their heart may melt, and their stumblings be multiplied: ah! it is made as lightning, it is pointed for slaughter. | Ezk 21:22 Ezk 15:7 Jer 17:27 |
| 16 | Gather you together, go to the right, set yourself in array, go to the left, wherever your face is set. | Ezk 21:4 Ezk 21:20 Ezk 14:17 Ezk 16:46 |
| 17 | I will also strike my hands together, and I will cause my wrath to rest: I, Yahweh, have spoken it. | Ezk 21:14 Ezk 22:13 Nm 24:10 |
| 18 | The word of Yahweh came to me again, saying, |
| 19 | Also, you son of man, appoint two ways, that the sword of the king of Babylon may come; they both shall come forth out of one land: and mark out a place, mark it out at the head of the way to the city. | Ezk 4:1-3 Ezk 5:1-17 Jer 1:10 |
| 20 | You shall appoint a way for the sword to come to Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and to Judah in Jerusalem the fortified. | Ezk 25:5 Dt 3:11 2Sa 12:26 Jer 49:2 Am 1:14 |
| 21 | For the king of Babylon stood at the parting of the way, at the head of the two ways, to use divination: he shook the arrows back and forth, he consulted the teraphim, he looked in the liver. | Pr 16:33 Pr 21:1 |
| 22 | In his right hand was the divination [for] Jerusalem, to set battering rams, to open the mouth in the slaughter, to lift up the voice with shouting, to set battering rams against the gates, to cast up mounds, to build forts. | Ezk 4:2 |
| 23 | It shall be to them as a false divination in their sight, who have sworn oaths to them; but he brings iniquity to memory, that they may be taken. | Ezk 11:3 Ezk 12:22 Isa 28:14 Isa 28:15 |
| 24 | Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh: Because you have made your iniquity to be remembered, in that your transgressions are uncovered, so that in all your doings your sins do appear; because you have come to memory, you shall be taken with the hand. | Ezk 16:16-22 Ezk 22:3-12 Ezk 22:24-31 Ezk 23:5-21 Ezk 24:7 Isa 3:9 Jer 2:34 Jer 3:2 Jer 5:27 Jer 5:28 Jer 6:15 Jer 8:12 Jer 9:2-7 Hos 4:2 Mic 3:10-12 |
| 25 | You, deadly wounded wicked one, the prince of Israel, whose day is come, in the time of the iniquity of the end, | Ezk 17:19 2Ch 36:13 Jer 24:8 Jer 52:2 |
| 26 | thus says the Lord Yahweh: Remove the mitre, and take off the crown; this [shall be] no more the same; exalt that which is low, and abase that which is high. | Ezk 12:12 Ezk 12:13 Ezk 16:12 2Ki 25:6 2Ki 25:27 Jer 13:18 Jer 39:6 Jer 39:7 Jer 52:9-11 Jer 52:31-34 Lam 5:16 |
| 27 | I will overturn, overturn, overturn it: this also shall be no more, until he come whose right it is; and I will give it [him]. | Hg 2:21 Hg 2:22 Heb 12:26 Heb 12:27 |
| 28 | You, son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus says the Lord Yahweh concerning the children of Ammon, and concerning their reproach; and say you, A sword, a sword is drawn, for the slaughter it is furbished, to cause it to devour, that it may be as lightning; | Ezk 21:20 Ezk 25:2-7 Jer 49:1-5 Am 1:13-15 Zep 2:8-10 |
| 29 | while they see for you false visions, while they divine lies to you, to lay you on the necks of the wicked who are deadly wounded, whose day is come in the time of the iniquity of the end. | Ezk 12:24 Ezk 13:23 Ezk 22:28 Isa 44:25 Isa 47:13 Jer 27:9 |
| 30 | Cause it to return into its sheath. In the place where you were created, in the land of your birth, will I judge you. | Ezk 21:4 Ezk 21:5 Jer 47:6 Jer 47:7 |
| 31 | I will pour out my indignation on you; I will blow on you with the fire of my wrath; and I will deliver you into the hand of brutish men, skillful to destroy. | Ezk 7:8 Ezk 14:19 Ezk 22:22 Nah 1:6 |
| 32 | You shall be for fuel to the fire; your blood shall be in the midst of the land; you shall be no more remembered: for I, Yahweh, have spoken it. | Ezk 20:47 Ezk 20:48 Mal 4:1 Mt 3:10 Mt 3:12 |
