Ezekiel 21:28 - The Message

"But, son of man, your job is to prophesy. Tell them, ’This is the Message from God, the Master, against the Ammonites and against their cruel taunts:   "’A sword! A sword!
   Bared to kill,
Sharp as a razor,
   flashing like lightning.
Despite false sword propaganda
   circulated in Ammon,
The sword will sever Ammonite necks,
   for whom it’s punishment payday.
Return the sword to the sheath! I’ll judge you in your home country,
   in the land where you grew up.
I’ll empty out my wrath on you,
   breathe hot anger down your neck.
I’ll give you to vicious men
   skilled in torture.
You’ll end up as stove-wood.
   Corpses will litter your land.
Not so much as a memory will be left of you.
   I, God, have said so.’"
