Ezekiel 5:11-13
American Standard Version
11 Wherefore, as I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, surely, because thou hast defiled my sanctuary with all thy detestable things, and with all thine abominations, therefore will I also [a]diminish thee; neither shall mine eye spare, and I also will have no pity. 12 A third part of thee shall die with the pestilence, and with famine shall they be consumed in the midst of thee; and a third part shall fall by the sword round about thee; and a third part I will scatter unto all the winds, and will draw out a sword after them.
13 Thus shall mine anger be accomplished, and I will cause my wrath toward them to [b]rest, and I shall be comforted: and they shall know that I, Jehovah, have spoken in my zeal, when I have accomplished my wrath upon them.

New International Version
11 Therefore as surely as I live,(A) declares the Sovereign(B) Lord, because you have defiled my sanctuary(C) with all your vile images(D) and detestable practices,(E) I myself will shave you; I will not look on you with pity or spare you.(F) 12 A third of your people will die of the plague or perish by famine inside you; a third will fall by the sword outside your walls; and a third I will scatter to the winds(G) and pursue with drawn sword.(H)
13 “Then my anger will cease and my wrath(I) against them will subside, and I will be avenged.(J) And when I have spent my wrath on them, they will know that I the Lord have spoken in my zeal.(K)
