Ezekiel 21:3-5

Lexham English Bible

³ And you must say to the land of Israel, ‘Thus says Yahweh: “Look! I am against you, and I will draw out my sword from its sheath, and I will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked. ⁴ Because^[a] I will cut off from you both righteous and wicked, therefore my sword will go out from its sheath to^[b] all creatures^[c] from south to north. ⁵ And they will know, all creatures, that I, Yahweh, I will bring out my sword from its sheath; it will not return again!”’
