Ezekiel 11:7-9

International Standard Version

⁷ ‘Therefore this is what the Lord God says, “The corpses that you’ve laid out in your midst are the meat, and this city is the cooking pot. But you’ll be taken out from the middle of it. ⁸ You’ve feared the sword,^[a] but I’m bringing violent death in your direction,”^[b] declares the Lord God. ⁹ “I’m bringing you out from the middle of it and I’m going to deliver you into the hands of strangers, because I’m going to carry out my sentence against you.
