Ezekiel 7:25-27

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁵ When distress cometh upon them, they will seek for peace and there shall be none.

²⁶ Trouble shall come upon trouble, and rumour upon rumour, and they shall seek a vision of the prophet, and the law shall perish from the priest, and counsel from the ancients.

²⁷ The king shall mourn, and the prince shall be clothed with sorrow, and the hands of the people of the land shall be troubled. I will do to them according to their way, and will judge them according to their judgments: and they shall know that I am the Lord.
