Ezekiel 21:1-3

Tree of Life Version

The Parable of the Sword

21 The word of Adonai came to me saying: ² “Son of man, set your face toward Teman and proclaim to the South. Prophesy against the brush land of the Negev. ³ Say to the brush land of the South: ‘Hear the word of Adonai!’ Thus says Adonai Elohim: ‘Behold, I will kindle a fire in you. It will devour every moist tree in you and every dry tree. Its leaping flame will not be extinguished. All faces from the south to the north will be scorched by it.
