Be Still!

God's Sword

And say to the land of Israel, So says Jehovah: Behold, I am against you, and will draw out My sword out of its sheath and will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked. Since then I will cut off the righteous and the wicked from you, therefore My sword shall be drawn from its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north, so that all flesh may know that I Jehovah have drawn out My sword from its sheath. It shall not return any more.
