Ezekiel 28:20-24

Ezekiel 28

Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources

20Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

21“Son of man, set your face against Sidon and prophesy against her.

22And you are to declare that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I am against you, O Sidon, and I will be glorified within you. They will know that I am the LORD when I execute judgments against her and demonstrate My holiness through her.

23I will send a plague against her and shed blood in her streets; the slain will fall within her, while the sword is against her on every side. Then they will know that I am the LORD.

24For the people of Israel will no longer face a pricking brier or a painful thorn from all around them who treat them with contempt. Then they will know that I am the Lord GOD.’
