Ezekiel 7:10-19

New International Version

¹⁰ “‘See, the day!
    See, it comes!
Doom has burst forth,
    the rod^(A) has budded,
    arrogance has blossomed!
¹¹ Violence^(B) has arisen,^[a]
    a rod to punish the wicked.
None of the people will be left,
    none of that crowd—
none of their wealth,
    nothing of value.^(C)
12 The time has come!
    The day has arrived!
Let not the buyer^(D) rejoice
    nor the seller grieve,
    for my wrath is on the whole crowd.^(E)
13 The seller will not recover
    the property that was sold—
    as long as both buyer and seller live.
For the vision concerning the whole crowd
    will not be reversed.
Because of their sins, not one of them
    will preserve their life.^(F)

¹⁴ “‘They have blown the trumpet,^(G)
    they have made all things ready,
but no one will go into battle,
    for my wrath^(H) is on the whole crowd.
¹⁵ Outside is the sword;
    inside are plague and famine.
Those in the country
    will die by the sword;
those in the city
    will be devoured by famine and plague.^(I)
16 The fugitives^(J) who escape
    will flee to the mountains.
Like doves^(K) of the valleys,
    they will all moan,
    each for their own sins.^(L)
17 Every hand will go limp;^(M)
    every leg will be wet with urine.^(N)
18 They will put on sackcloth^(O)
    and be clothed with terror.^(P)
Every face will be covered with shame,
    and every head will be shaved.^(Q)

¹⁹ “‘They will throw their silver into the streets,^(R)
    and their gold will be treated as a thing unclean.
Their silver and gold
    will not be able to deliver them
    in the day of the Lord’s wrath.^(S)
It will not satisfy^(T) their hunger
    or fill their stomachs,
    for it has caused them to stumble^(U) into sin.^(V)
