Ezekiel 21:8-10

American Standard Version

⁸ And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying, ⁹ Son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus saith Jehovah: Say, A sword, a sword, it is sharpened, and also furbished; ¹⁰ it is sharpened that it may make a slaughter; it is furbished that it may be as lightning: shall we then make mirth? ^[a]the rod of my son, it contemneth every tree.
