Ezekiel 7:10–22

^10o“Behold, the day! Behold, it comes! ^pYour doom has come; ^qthe rod has blossomed; pride has budded. ^11rViolence has grown up into ^qa rod of wickedness. ^sNone of them shall remain, nor their abundance, nor their wealth; neither shall there be preeminence among them.^{4 12j}The time has come; the day has arrived. Let not ^tthe buyer rejoice, nor ^tthe seller mourn, ^ufor wrath is upon all their multitude.^{5 13}For ^vthe seller shall not return to what he has sold, while they live. ^wFor the vision concerns all their multitude; it shall not turn back; and because of his iniquity, none can maintain his life.⁶

¹⁴“They have blown the trumpet and made everything ready, but none goes to battle, ^xfor my wrath is upon all their multitude. ^15yThe sword is without; pestilence and famine are within. ^zHe who is in the field dies by the sword, ^zand him who is in the city famine and pestilence devour. ^16aAnd if any survivors escape, they will be on the mountains, like ^bdoves of the valleys, all of them moaning, each one over his iniquity. ^17cAll hands are feeble, and all knees turn to water. ^18dThey put on sackcloth, and ^ehorror covers them. Shame is on all faces, and ^fbaldness on all their heads. ¹⁹They cast their silver into the streets, and their gold is like an unclean thing. ^gTheir silver and gold are not able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the Lord. They cannot satisfy their hunger or fill their stomachs with it. ^hFor it was ⁱthe stumbling block of their iniquity. ^20jHis beautiful ornament they used for pride, and ^kthey made their abominable images and their detestable things of it. Therefore ^lI make it an unclean thing to them. ²¹And I will give it into the hands of ^mforeigners for prey, ⁿand to the wicked of the earth for spoil, and ^lthey shall profane it. ²²I will turn my face from them, and ^lthey shall profane my treasured⁷ place. Robbers shall enter ^land profane it.
