Ezekiel
Ezekiel 28:21–22
21“Son of man, set your face against Sidon and prophesy against her. 22And you are to declare that this is what the Lord GOD says:
‘Behold, I am against you, O Sidon,
and I will be glorified within you.
They will know that I am the LORD
when I execute judgments against her
and demonstrate My holiness through her.
