Ezekiel 12:16

The Announcement Of The Imminent Coming Of The Exile

¹⁵ And they will be certain that I am the Lord, when I send them in flight among the nations, driving them out through the countries. ¹⁶ But a small number of them I will keep from the sword, from the need of food, and from disease, so that they may make clear all their disgusting ways among the nations where they come; and they will be certain that I am the Lord. ¹⁷ Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

Among the Nations

I Am the Lord

Know that I Am the Lord

They Will Know that I Am the Lord
