Ezekiel 14:12-14

International Standard Version

On Noah, Daniel, and Job

¹² This message came to me from the Lord: ¹³ “Son of Man, when a nation^[a] sins against me by a treacherous act,^[b] I’ll reach out to oppose it, destroying its source of food,^[c] by sending famine against it, and by destroying both people and beast within it. ¹⁴ Though these three men, Noah, Daniel,^[d] and Job lived in that land, they would only save their own lives on account of their righteousness,” declares the Lord God.
