Ezekiel 32:4-6
New English Translation
4 I will leave you on the ground,
I will fling you on the open field,
I will allow[a] all the birds of the sky to settle[b] on you,
and I will permit[c] all the wild animals[d] to gorge themselves on you.
5 I will put your flesh on the mountains,
and fill the valleys with your maggot-infested carcass.[e]
6 I will drench the land with the flow
of your blood up to the mountains,
and the ravines will be full of your blood.[f]
