Ezekiel

Ezekiel 14:13–14

¹³“Son of man, if a land sins against Me by acting unfaithfully, and I stretch out My hand against it to cut off its supply^a of food, to send famine upon it, and to cut off from it both man and beast, ¹⁴then even if these three men— Noah, Daniel, and Job— were in it, their righteousness could deliver only themselves, declares the Lord GOD.
