Ezekiel 7:23-25

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²³ Prepare the chain [of imprisonment], for the land is full of bloodguiltiness [murders committed with pretended formalities of justice] and the city is full of violence.

²⁴ Therefore I will bring in the worst of the [heathen] nations, who will take possession of the houses [of the people of Judah]; I will also silence their strongholds and put an end to their proud might, and their holy places and those who sanctify them shall be profaned.

²⁵ Distress, panic, and destruction shall come, and they [of Judah] shall seek peace, and there shall be none.
