Ezekiel 21:15-17
Evangelical Heritage Version
15 so that hearts melt,
and those who stumble will be many.
At all their gates I have placed the point[a] of the sword.
Yes, it is made to flash like lightning,
unsheathed for slaughter.
16 Slash to the right. Thrust to the left—
wherever your blade is directed.
17 Then I myself will clap my hands.[b]
I will bring my wrath to an end.
I, the Lord, have spoken.
