Ezekiel 9:3-5

Lexham English Bible

³ And the glory of the God of Israel lifted itself up from upon the cherub that he was on^[a] and went to the threshold of the house,^[b] and he called to the man who was clothed in linen with a scribal writing case at his side.^{[c] 4} And Yahweh said to him, “Go through in the midst of the city, in the midst of Jerusalem, and you must place a mark on the foreheads of the men who are groaning and lamenting^[d] about all of the detestable things that are being done^[e] in the midst of her.” ⁵ And to the others he said in my hearing, “Go through the city behind him and kill! Your eyes shall not take pity, and you shall not have compassion.
