New International Reader's Version

Ezekiel Prophesies Against the South

⁴⁵ A message from the Lord came to me. The Lord said, ⁴⁶ “Son of man, turn your attention to Judah in the south. Preach against it. Prophesy against its forests. ⁴⁷ Tell them, ‘Listen to the Lord’s message. The Lord and King says, “I am about to set you on fire. The fire will destroy all your trees. It will burn down green trees and dry trees alike. The blazing flame will not be put out. The faces of everyone from south to north will be burned by it.
