I have posted a sword at every gate - October 19, 2001, Warsaw, Poland
Today before morning, Warsaw, Poland:
The word of Yahweh was addressed to me as follows, *'Son of
man, prophesy. Say, "The Lord says this". Say:
"The sword, the sword
sharpened and polished!
Sharpened for slaughter,
polished to flash like lightning...
polished only to be wielded,
sharpened and polished to fit the slaughterer's hand!
Yes, shout and howl, son of man;
it is meant for my people,
for all the princes of Israel, doomed like my people to the sword.
So beat your breast; *this is no first attempt,
and what would happen, were there no haughty sceptre?
- it is the Lord Yahweh who speaks.
Son of man, prophesy and clap your hands.
Let the sword be twice, three times, as cruel,
the butcher's sword,
the great sword of slaughter, menacing all around.
To make hearts sink and to increase the number of victims
I have posted a sword at every gate
to flash like lightning, polished for havoc.
Behind! To the right! To the left! In front!
And I too will clap my hands;
I will exhaust my wrath,
I, Yahweh, have spoken."'
(Ezk 21:13-22)
