Ezekiel 21:14-20 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

14. And thou, son of man, prophesy, and smite thy hands together; for the strokes of the sword shall be doubled the third time: it is the sword of the slain, the sword that hath slain the great one, which encompasseth them privily.

15. In order that the heart may melt, and the stumbling-blocks be multiplied, I have set the threatening sword against all their gates: ah! it is made glittering, it is whetted for the slaughter.

16. Gather up strength, go to the right hand, turn thee, go to the left, whithersoever thy face is appointed.

17. And I myself will smite my hands together, and I will satisfy my fury: I Jehovah have spoken it.

18. And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,

19. And thou, son of man, set thee two ways, by which the sword of the king of Babylon may come--out of one land shall they both come--and make thee a signpost, make it at the head of the way to the city.

20. Appoint a way for the coming of the sword to Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and to Judah at the fenced city of Jerusalem.
