Ezekiel 20:45-49

45 ^{▼▼Ch 21:1 in Hebrew} And the word of the Lord came to me: 46 ^b“Son of man, ^cset your face toward the southland; ^{▼▼Or toward Teman} ^epreach against the south, and prophesy against the forest land in the Negeb. 47 Say to the forest of the Negeb, Hear the word of the Lord: Thus says the Lord God, Behold, ^fI will kindle a fire in you, and it shall devour every ^ggreen tree in you and every ^hdry tree. The blazing flame shall not be quenched, and ⁱall faces from south to north shall be scorched by it. 48 ^jAll flesh shall see that I the Lord have kindled it; it shall not be quenched.” 49 Then I said, ^k“Ah, Lord God! They are saying of me, ^l‘Is he not a maker of parables?’”
