Ezekiel 28:20–26

²⁰And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying, ²¹‘Son of man, set thy face unto Zidon, and prophesy concerning it; ²²and thou hast said: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am against thee, O Zidon, And I have been honoured in thy midst, And they have known that I am Jehovah, In My doing in her judgments, And I have been sanctified in her. ²³And I have sent into her pestilence, And blood into her out-places, The wounded hath been judged in her midst, By the sword upon her round about, And they have known that I am Jehovah. ²⁴And there is no more to the house of Israel A pricking brier, and paining thorn, Of all round about them—despising them, And they have known that I am the Lord Jehovah. ²⁵Thus said the Lord Jehovah: In My gathering the house of Israel, Out of the peoples among whom they were scattered, I have been sanctified in them, Before the eyes of the nations, And they have dwelt on their ground, That I gave to My servant, to Jacob, ²⁶And they have dwelt on it confidently, And builded houses, and planted vineyards, And dwelt confidently—in My doing judgments, On all those despising them round about, And they have known that I, Jehovah, am their God!’
