1Then he cried in my hearing with a loud voice, saying, “Draw near, you executioners of the city, each with his destroying weapon in his hand.”
2 called to the man clothed in linen who had the writing case at his side
4Ex 12.7; 1 Pet 4.17; Rev 7.3; 9.4and said to him, “Go through the city, through Jerusalem, and put a mark on the foreheads of those who sigh and groan over all the abominations that are committed in it.”
5Ezek 5.11; 7.4, 9To the others he said in my hearing, “Pass through the city after him and kill; your eye shall not spare, and you shall show no pity.
62 Chr 36.17; Jer 25.29; Ezek 8.11, 12, 16; Am 3.2; Rev 9.4Cut down old men, young men and young women, little children and women, but touch no one who has the mark. And begin at my sanctuary.” So they began with the elders who were in front of the house.
72 Chr 36.17; Ezek 6.7; 7.20–22Then he said to them, “Defile the house and fill the courts with the slain. Go!” So they went out and killed in the city.
8Josh 7.6; 1 Chr 21.16; Ezek 11.13While they were killing and I was left alone, I fell prostrate on my face and cried out, “Ah Lord God! Will you destroy all who remain of Israel as you pour out your wrath upon Jerusalem?”
9Ezek 7.23; 8.12; 22.29He said to me, “The guilt of the house of Israel and Judah is exceedingly great; the land is full of bloodshed and the city full of perversity, for they say, ‘The Lord has forsaken the land, and the Lord does not see.’
10Isa 65.6; Ezek 7.4; 8.18; 11.21As for me, my eye will not spare, nor will I have pity, but I will bring down their deeds upon their heads.”
11Then the man clothed in linen with the writing case at his side brought back word, saying, “I have done as you commanded me.”
