— Ezekiel 21:16, American Standard Version
“Go thee one way or other, either on the right hand, or on 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.”
For there is a trial; and what if even the rod that contemneth shall be no more? saith the Lord Jehovah.
Thou therefore, son of man, prophesy, and smite thy hands together; and let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of the deadly wounded: it is the sword of the great one that is deadly wounded, which entereth into their chambers.
I have set the threatening sword against all their gates, that their heart may melt, and their stumblings be multiplied: ah! it is made as lightning, it is pointed for slaughter.
Gather thee together, go to the right, set thyself in array, go to the left, whithersoever thy face is set.
I will also smite my hands together, and I will cause my wrath to rest: I, Jehovah, have spoken it.
The word of Jehovah came unto me again, saying,
Also, thou son of man, appoint thee two ways, that the sword of the king of Babylon may come; they twain shall come forth out of one land: and mark out a place, mark it out at the head of the way to the city.
