Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2
"And you, son of man, thus says the Lord God to the land of Israel: 'An end! The end has come upon the four corners of the land.
3
Now the end has come upon you, And I will send My anger against you; I will judge you according to your ways, And I will repay you for all your abominations.
4
My eye will not spare you, Nor will I have pity; But I will repay your ways, And your abominations will be in your midst; Then you shall know that I am the Lord!'
5
"Thus says the Lord God: 'A disaster, a singular disaster; Behold, it has come!
6
An end has come, The end has come; It has dawned for you; Behold, it has come!
7
Doom has come to you, you who dwell in the land; The time has come, A day of trouble is near, And not of rejoicing in the mountains.
8
Now upon you I will soon pour out My fury, And spend My anger upon you; I will judge you according to your ways, And I will repay you for all your abominations.
9
'My eye will not spare, Nor will I have pity; I will repay you according to your ways, And your abominations will be in your midst. Then you shall know that I am the Lord who strikes.
10
'Behold, the day! Behold, it has come! Doom has gone out; The rod has blossomed, Pride has budded.
11
Violence has risen up into a rod of wickedness; None of them shall remain, None of their multitude, None of them; Nor shall there be wailing for them.
