Ezekiel 7:5-13

English Standard Version

⁵ “Thus says the Lord God: Disaster ^(A)after disaster!^[a] Behold, it comes. ^6 (B)An end has come; the end has come; it has awakened against you. Behold, it comes. ^7 (C)Your doom^[b] has come to you, O inhabitant of the land. ^(D)The time has come; the day is near, a day of tumult, and not ^(E)of joyful shouting on the mountains. ⁸ Now I will soon ^(F)pour out my wrath upon you, and ^(G)spend my anger against you, ^(H)and judge you according to your ways, and I will punish you for all your abominations. ^9 (I)And my eye will not spare, nor will I have pity. I will punish you according to your ways, while your abominations are in your midst. ^(J)Then you will know that I am the Lord, who strikes.

^10 (K)“Behold, the day! Behold, it comes! ^(L)Your doom has come; ^(M)the rod has blossomed; pride has budded. ^11 (N)Violence has grown up into ^(O)a rod of wickedness. ^(P)None of them shall remain, nor their abundance, nor their wealth; neither shall there be preeminence among them.^{[c] 12 (Q)}The time has come; the day has arrived. Let not ^(R)the buyer rejoice, nor ^(S)the seller mourn, ^(T)for wrath is upon all their multitude.^{[d] 13} For ^(U)the seller shall not return to what he has sold, while they live. ^(V)For the vision concerns all their multitude; it shall not turn back; and because of his iniquity, none can maintain his life.^[e]
