1 Then the Lord spoke his word to me. He said:
2 “Human being, look toward Jerusalem and speak against their holy place. Prophesy against the land of Israel.
3 Say to Israel: ‘This is what the Lord says: I am against you. I will pull my sword out of its holder. I will separate you from both wicked people and those who do right.
4 I am going to separate the wicked and those who do right. So my sword will come out from its holder. And it will come against all people from south to north.
