Ezekiel 21:3-5
3 and say to the land of Israel, ‘Thus says the Lord, “Behold, (A)I am against you; and I will draw My sword out of its sheath and cut off from you the (B)righteous and the wicked.
4 Because I will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked, therefore My sword will go forth from its sheath against (C)all flesh from south to north.
5 Thus all flesh will know that I, the Lord, have drawn My sword out of its sheath. It will (D)not return to its sheath again.”’
