Ezekiel 5:6-11 New Living Translation (NLT)

6. but she has rebelled against my regulations and decrees and has been even more wicked than the surrounding nations. She has refused to obey the regulations and decrees I gave her to follow.

7. “Therefore, this is what the Sovereign lord says: You people have behaved worse than your neighbors and have refused to obey my decrees and regulations. You have not even lived up to the standards of the nations around you.

8. Therefore, I myself, the Sovereign lord, am now your enemy. I will punish you publicly while all the nations watch.

9. Because of your detestable idols, I will punish you like I have never punished anyone before or ever will again.

10. Parents will eat their own children, and children will eat their parents. I will punish you and scatter to the winds the few who survive.

11. “As surely as I live, says the Sovereign lord, I will cut you off completely. I will show you no pity at all because you have defiled my Temple with your vile images and detestable sins.
