Ezekiel 21:4-17

Seeing
<03282>
then that I will cut off
<03772> (8689)
from thee the righteous
<06662>
and the wicked
<07563>_,
therefore shall my sword
<02719>
go forth
<03318> (8799)
out of his sheath
<08593>
against all flesh
<01320>
from the south
<05045>
to the north
<06828>_:
That all flesh
<01320>
may know
<03045> (8804)
that I the LORD
<03068>
have drawn forth
<03318> (8689)
my sword
<02719>
out of his sheath
<08593>_:
it shall not return
<07725> (8799)
any more.
Sigh
<0584> (8734)
therefore, thou son
<01121>
of man
<0120>_,
with the breaking
<07670>
of [thy] loins
<04975>_;
and with bitterness
<04814>
sigh
<0584> (8735)
before their eyes
<05869>_.
And it shall be, when they say
<0559> (8799)
unto thee, Wherefore sighest
<0584> (8737)
thou? that thou shalt answer
<0559> (8804)_,
For the tidings
<08052>_;
because it cometh
<0935> (8802)_:
and every heart
<03820>
shall melt
<04549> (8738)_,
and all hands
<03027>
shall be feeble
<07503> (8804)_,
and every spirit
<07307>
shall faint
<03543> (8765)_,
and all knees
<01290>
shall be weak
<03212> (8799)
[as] water
<04325>_:
behold, it cometh
<0935> (8802)_,
and shall be brought to pass
<01961> (8738)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_.
{shall be weak...: Heb. shall go into water}
Again the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came unto me, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Son
<01121>
of man
<0120>_,
prophesy
<05012> (8734)_,
and say
<0559> (8804)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Say
<0559> (8798)_,
A sword
<02719>_,
a sword
<02719>
is sharpened
<02300> (8717)_,
and also furbished
<04803> (8803)_:
It is sharpened
<02300> (8717)
to make a sore
<02874>
slaughter
<02873> (8800)_;
it is furbished
<04178> (8794)
that it may glitter
<01300>_:
should
<0176>
we then make mirth
<07797> (8799)_?
it contemneth
<03988> (8802)
the rod
<07626>
of my son
<01121>_,
[as] every tree
<06086>_.
{it contemneth...: or, it is the rod of my son, it despiseth every tree}
And he hath given
<05414> (8799)
it to be furbished
<04803> (8800)_,
that it may be handled
<03709> <08610> (8800)_:
this sword
<02719>
is sharpened
<02300> (8717)_,
and it is furbished
<04178> (8794)_,
to give
<05414> (8800)
it into the hand
<03027>
of the slayer
<02026> (8802)_.
Cry
<02199> (8798)
and howl
<03213> (8685)_,
son
<01121>
of man
<0120>_:
for it shall be upon my people
<05971>_,
it [shall be] upon all the princes
<05387>
of Israel
<03478>_:
terrors
<04048> (8803)
by reason of
<0413>
the sword
<02719>
shall be upon my people
<05971>_:
smite
<05606> (8798)
therefore upon [thy] thigh
<03409>_.
{terrors...: or, they are thrust down to the sword with my people}
Because [it is] a trial
<0974> (8795)_,
and what if [the sword] contemn
<03988> (8802)
even the rod
<07626>_?
it shall be no [more], saith
<05002> (8803)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_.
{Because...: or, When the trial hath been, what then? shall they not also belong to the despising rod?}
Thou therefore, son
<01121>
of man
<0120>_,
prophesy
<05012> (8734)_,
and smite
<05221> (0)
[thine] hands
<03709> <03709>
together
<05221> (8685)_,
and let the sword
<02719>
be doubled
<03717> (8735)
the third
<07992>
time, the sword
<02719>
of the slain
<02491>_:
it [is] the sword
<02719>
of the great
<01419>
[men that are] slain
<02491>_,
which entereth into their privy chambers
<02314> (8802)_.
{hands...: Heb. hand to hand}
I have set
<05414> (8804)
the point
<019>
of the sword
<02719>
against all their gates
<08179>_,
that [their] heart
<03820>
may faint
<04127> (8800)_,
and [their] ruins
<04383>
be multiplied
<07235> (8687)_:
ah
<0253>_!
[it is] made
<06213> (8803)
bright
<01300>_,
[it is] wrapped up
<04593>
for the slaughter
<02874>_.
{point: or, glittering, or, fear} {wrapped up: or, sharpened}
Go thee one way or other
<0258> (8690)_,
[either] on
<07760> (8685)
the right hand
<03231> (8685)_,
[or] on the left
<08041> (8685)_,
whithersoever
<0575>
thy face
<06440>
[is] set
<03259> (8716)_.
{or on...: Heb. set thyself, take the left hand}
I will also smite
<05221> (8686)
mine hands
<03709>
together
<03709>_,
and I will cause my fury
<02534>
to rest
<05117> (8689)_:
I the LORD
<03068>
have said
<01696> (8765)
[it].
