Ezekiel 21:3-5

Authorized (King James) Version

³ and say to the land of Israel, Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I am against thee, and will draw forth my sword out of his sheath, and will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked. ⁴ Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall my sword go forth out of his sheath against all flesh from the south to the north: ⁵ that all flesh may know that I the Lord have drawn forth my sword out of his sheath: it shall not return any more.
