1 The word of the Lord came to me:

11The sword is given to be polished
to be grasped in the hand;
it is sharpened; the sword is polished
to be placed in the slayer’s hand.
12 says the Lord God.
14 of the sword.
Ah! It is made for flashing;
it is drawn for slaughter.
16Attack to the right!
Engage to the left!
—wherever your edge is directed.
17 Jerusalem the fortified.
21 he inspects the liver.
22Into his right hand comes the lot for Jerusalem, to set battering rams, to call out for slaughter, for raising the battle cry, to set battering rams against the gates, to cast up ramps, to build siege towers.
23
25 to flash like lightning.
29 v 25 ; Ezek 13.6–9; 22.28; 35.5Offering false visions for you,
divining lies for you,
they place you over the necks
of the vile, wicked ones—
those whose day has come,
the time of final punishment.
30 Jer 47.6, 7; Ezek 16.3 Return it to its sheath!
In the place where you were created,
in the land of your origin,
I will judge you.
31 Jer 6.22, 23; 51.20, 21; Ezek 7.8; 14.19; 22.20, 21 I will pour out my indignation upon you;
with the fire of my wrath
I will blow upon you.
I will deliver you into brutish hands,
those skillful to destroy.
32 Ezek 25.10; Mal 4.1 You shall be fuel for the fire,
your blood shall enter the earth;
you shall be remembered no more,
for I the Lord have spoken.
