Ezekiel 21:13-15

Living Bible

¹³ It will put them all to the test—and what chance do they have?” the Lord God asks.

¹⁴ “Prophesy to them in this way: Clap your hands vigorously, then take a sword and brandish it twice, thrice, to symbolize the great massacre they face! ¹⁵ Let their hearts melt with terror, for a sword glitters at every gate; it flashes like lightning; it is razor-edged for slaughter.
