NET Bible
"“Suppose I were to send wild animals through the land and kill its children, leaving it desolate, without travelers due to the wild animals."
— Ezekiel 14:15, NET Bible
“If I cause noisome beasts to pass through the land, and they spoil it, so that it be desolate, that no man may pass through because of the beasts:”
“If I cause evil beasts to pass through the land, and they ravage it, and it be made desolate, so that no man may pass through because of the beasts; ”
“If I cause evil animals to pass through the land, and they ravage it, and it be made desolate, so that no man may pass through because of the animals;”
“And if I shall bring mischievous beasts also upon the land to waste it, and it be desolate, so that there is none that can pass because of the beasts:”
“Or if I send evil beasts through the land causing destruction and making it waste, so that no man may go through because of the beasts:”
“If I cause noisome beasts to pass through the land, and they spoil it, so that it be desolate, that no man may pass through because of the beasts:”
The LORD’s message came to me:
“Son of man, suppose a country sins against me by being unfaithful, and I stretch out my hand against it, cut off its bread supply, cause famine to come on it, and kill both people and animals.
Even if these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they would save only their own lives by their righteousness, declares the Sovereign LORD.
“Suppose I were to send wild animals through the land and kill its children, leaving it desolate, without travelers due to the wild animals.
Even if these three men were in it, as surely as I live, declares the Sovereign LORD, they could not save their own sons or daughters; they would save only their own lives, and the land would become desolate.
“Or suppose I were to bring a sword against that land and say,‘Let a sword pass through the land,’ and I were to kill both people and animals.
Even if these three men were in it, as surely as I live, declares the Sovereign LORD, they could not save their own sons or daughters– they would save only their own lives.
