Ezekiel 14:12-14
International Children’s Bible
Jerusalem Will Not Be Spared
12 The Lord spoke his word to me. He said: 13 “Human being, sometimes the people of a country will sin against me by not being loyal. When that happens, I will use my power against them. I will cut off their supply of food. I will send them a time of hunger. I will destroy both their people and animals. 14 Three great men like Noah, Daniel and Job might be in that country. But their goodness could save only themselves, says the Lord God.

Jerusalem’s Judgment Inescapable
12 The word of the Lord came to me: 13 “Son of man, if a country sins(A) against me by being unfaithful and I stretch out my hand against it to cut off its food supply(B) and send famine upon it and kill its people and their animals,(C) 14 even if these three men—Noah,(D) Daniel[a](E) and Job(F)—were in it, they could save only themselves by their righteousness,(G) declares the Sovereign Lord.
