Ezekiel 21:5-7

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁵ Thus all flesh will know that I, the Lord, have drawn My sword out of its sheath. It will ^(A)not return to its sheath again.”’ ⁶ As for you, son of man, groan with breaking ^[a]heart and bitter grief, groan in their sight. ⁷ And when they say to you, ‘Why do you groan?’ you shall say, ‘Because of the ^(B)news that is coming; and ^(C)every heart will melt, all hands will be feeble, every spirit will ^[b]faint and all knees will ^[c]be weak as water. Behold, it comes and it will happen,’ declares the Lord ^[d]God.”
