Ezekiel 21:13-15
Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

13 Surely it will be a trial! And what if the sword despises even the sceptre? The sceptre will not continue.’[a] This is the declaration of the Lord God.

14 ‘So you, son of man, prophesy and clap your hands together:(A)

Let the sword strike twice, even three times.
It is a sword for massacre,
a sword for great massacre –
it surrounds[b] them!
15 I have appointed a sword(B) for slaughter[c]
at all their gates,
so that their hearts may melt
and many may stumble.
Yes! It is ready to flash like lightning;(C)
it is drawn[d] for slaughter.
