Ezekiel 14:17-19

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁷ Or I might bring an enemy to attack that nation. I would say, “Soldiers with swords should destroy the whole land.” I would cause them to kill both people and animals. ¹⁸ I promise you this, as surely as I live: if those three righteous men lived there, they would only save themselves. They could not even save the lives of their own children. That is what the Almighty Lord says.

¹⁹ Or I might punish that nation with a terrible disease. Because I am very angry with those people, I would cause people and animals to die in that place.
