Ezekiel 21:8-11
English Standard Version
8 And the word of the Lord came to me: 9 (A)“Son of man, prophesy and say, Thus says the Lord, say:
(B)“A sword, a sword is sharpened
and also polished,
10 (C)sharpened for slaughter,
(D)polished to flash like lightning!
(Or (E)shall we rejoice? You have despised the rod, my son, (F)with everything of wood.)[a] 11 So the sword is given to be polished, that it may be grasped in the hand. It is sharpened and polished (G)to be given into the hand of the slayer.
