Ezekiel
Ezekiel 7:2–9
2“O son of man, this is what the Lord GOD says to the land of Israel:
‘The end! The end has come
upon the four corners of the land.
3The end is now upon you,
and I will unleash My anger against you.
I will judge you according to your ways
and repay you for all your abominations.
4I will not look on you with pity,
nor will I spare you,
but I will punish you for your ways
and for the abominations among you.
Then you will know that I am the LORD.’
5This is what the Lord GOD says:
‘Disaster! An unprecedented disastera —
behold, it is coming!
6The end has come!
The end has come!
It has roused itself against you.
Behold, it has come!
7Doom has come to you,
O inhabitants of the land.
The time has come;
the day is near;
there is panic on the mountains
instead of shouts of joy.
8Very soon I will pour out My wrath upon you
and vent My anger against you;
I will judge you according to your ways
and repay you for all your abominations.
9I will not look on you with pity,
nor will I spare you,
but I will punish you for your ways
and for the abominations among you.
Then you will know that it is I, the LORD,
who strikes the blow.
