Ezekiel 21:14-17

14 “So then, son of man, prophesy
and strike your hands together.
Let the sword strike twice,
even three times.
It is a sword for slaughter—
a sword for great slaughter,
closing in on them from every side.

15 So that hearts may melt
and the fallen be many,
I have stationed the sword for slaughter
at all their gates.
Oh! It is made to flash like lightning,
it is grasped for slaughter.

16 O sword, slash to the right,
then to the left,
wherever your blade is turned.

17 I too will strike my hands together,
and my wrath will subside.
I the Lord have spoken.”
