"Go you one way or other, either on the right hand, or on the left, wherever your face is set. "
— Ezekiel 21:16, American King James Version
“Go thee one way or other, either on the right hand, or on the left, whithersoever thy face is set.”
“Gather thee together, go to the right, set thyself in array, go to the left, whithersoever thy face is set. ”
“Gather yourselves together, go to the right, set yourselves in array, go to the left, wherever your face is set.”
“Cut sharply on the right! Swing to the left, wherever your edge is appointed to strike.”
“Be thou sharpened, go to the right hand, or to the left, which way soever thou hast a mind to set thy face.”
“Be pointed to the right, to the left, wherever your edge is ordered.”
“Go thee one way or other, either on the right hand, or on the left, whithersoever thy face is set.”
Because it is a trial, and what if the sword scorn even the rod? it shall be no more, says the Lord GOD.
You therefore, son of man, prophesy, and smite your hands together, and let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of the slain: it is the sword of the great men that are slain, which enters into their privy chambers.
I have set the point of the sword against all their gates, that their heart may faint, and their ruins be multiplied: ah! it is made bright, it is wrapped up for the slaughter.
Go you one way or other, either on the right hand, or on the left, wherever your face is set.
I will also smite my hands together, and I will cause my fury to rest: I the LORD have said it. ¶
The word of the LORD came to me again, saying,
Also, you son of man, appoint you two ways, that the sword of the king of Babylon may come: both two shall come forth out of one land: and choose you a place, choose it at the head of the way to the city.
