Ezekiel 7:2–9

²“Son of man, this is what the Lord God says to the land of Israel:

An end! The end has come

on the four corners of the earth.^w

³The end is now upon you;

I will send my anger against you

and judge you according to your ways.

I will punish you for all your detestable practices.

⁴I will not look on you with pity or spare you,^a

but I will punish you for your ways^b

and for your detestable practices within you.

Then you will know that I am the Lord.”^c

⁵This is what the Lord God says:

Look, one disaster after another is coming!^d

⁶An end has come; the end has come!

It has awakened against you.

Look, it is coming!

⁷Doom has come on you,^e

inhabitants of the land.

The time has come; the day is near.

There will be panic on the mountains

and not celebration.^f

⁸I will pour out my wrath on you very soon;^g

I will exhaust my anger against you

and judge you according to your ways.

I will punish you for all your detestable practices.

⁹I will not look on you with pity or spare you.

I will punish you for your ways

and for your detestable practices within you.

Then you will know

that it is I, the Lord, who strikes.
