1. The Lord God said:
2. Ezekiel, son of man, tell the people of Israel that I am saying:Israel will soon come to an end! Your whole country is about to be destroyed
3. as punishment for your disgusting sins. I, the Lord, am so angry
4. that I will show no pity. I will punish you for the evil you've done, and you will know that I am the Lord.
5. There's never been anything like the coming disaster.
6. And when it comes, your life will be over.
7. You people of Israel are doomed! Soon there will be panic on the mountaintops instead of celebration.
8. I will let loose my anger and punish you for the evil things you've done. You'll get what you deserve.
9. Your sins are so terrible, that you'll get no mercy from me. Then you will know that I, the Lord, have punished you.
