Ezekiel 21:19-21
Lexham English Bible
19 “And you, son of man,[a] mark out for yourself[b] two roads for the coming of the sword of the king of Babylon; they must both[c] go out from the same land. And hew out a signpost;[d] hew it at the head of the road of the city. 20 You must mark a road for the coming of the sword to Rabbah of the Ammonites[e] and to Judah, in Jerusalem the fortified. 21 For the king of Babylon stands at the fork of the road at the head of the two roads to practice divination. He shakes the arrows,[f] he inquires with the teraphim, he examines[g] the liver.
