Ezekiel 33 — Context

27

“This is what you must say to them,‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says: As surely as I live, those living in the ruins will die by the sword, those in the open field I will give to the wild beasts for food, and those who are in the strongholds and caves will die of disease.

28

I will turn the land into a desolate ruin; her confident pride will come to an end. The mountains of Israel will be so desolate no one will pass through them.

Then they will know that I am the LORD when I turn the land into a desolate ruin because of all the abominable deeds they have committed.’

When all this comes true– and it certainly will– then they will know that a prophet was among them.”
