Ezekiel 21:14 - The Message

"So, prophesy, son of man!
   Clap your hands. Get their attention.
Tell them that the sword’s coming down
   once, twice, three times.
It’s a sword to kill,
   a sword for a massacre,
A sword relentless,
   a sword inescapable—
People collapsing right and left,
   going down like dominoes.
I’ve stationed a murderous sword
   at every gate in the city,
Flashing like lightning,
   brandished murderously.
Cut to the right, thrust to the left,
   murderous, sharp-edged sword!
Then I’ll clap my hands,
   a signal that my anger is spent.
         I, God, have spoken."
