Ezekiel 5:12-17

12 A third of you will die by ^aplague or perish by famine among you, a third will fall by the sword around you, and a third I will ^bscatter to every wind, and I will ^cunsheathe a sword behind them.

13 ‘Then My anger will be spent and I will satisfy My wrath on them, and I will be ^dappeased; then they will know that I, the Lord, have ^espoken in My zeal, when I have spent My wrath upon them. 14 Moreover, I will make you a site of ruins and a ^fdisgrace among the nations that surround you, in the sight of everyone who passes by. 15 So ^{▼▼Ancient versions you}it will be a disgrace, an object of abuse, a ^hwarning, and an object of horror to the nations that surround you when I ⁱexecute judgments against you in anger, wrath, and raging reprimands. I, the Lord, have spoken. 16 When I send against them the ^{▼▼Lit evil}deadly arrows of famine which ^{▼▼Or are for destruction, which I will send}were for the destruction of those whom I will send to destroy you, then I will also intensify the famine upon you and break off your ^{▼▼Lit staff}provision of bread. 17 ^mI will send on you famine and vicious animals, and they will bereave you of children; ⁿplague and bloodshed also will pass through you, and I will bring the sword on you. I, the Lord, have spoken.’”
