Ezekiel 15:6-8

New International Reader's Version

⁶ Here is what the Lord and King says. “Instead of the wood of any tree in the forest, I have given the vine to burn in the fire. I will treat the people who live in Jerusalem the same way. ⁷ I will turn against them. They might have come out of the fire. But the fire will destroy them anyway. I will turn against them. Then you will know that I am the Lord. ⁸ I will make the land a dry and empty desert. My people have not been faithful to me,” announces the Lord and King.
