Ezekiel 20:45-47

Good News Translation

Fire in the South

⁴⁵ The Lord spoke to me. ⁴⁶ “Mortal man,” he said, “look toward the south. Speak against the south and prophesy against the forest of the south. ⁴⁷ Tell the southern forest to hear what the Sovereign Lord is saying: Look! I am starting a fire, and it will burn up every tree in you, whether green or dry. Nothing will be able to put it out. It will spread from south to north, and everyone will feel the heat of the flames.
