Ezekiel 21:15

English Standard Version

15 that their hearts may melt, and many stumble.[1] At all their gates I have given the glittering sword. Ah, it is made like lightning; it is taken up[2] for slaughter. (Eze 21:10)

New International Version

15 So that hearts may melt with fear and the fallen be many, I have stationed the sword for slaughter[1] at all their gates. Look! It is forged to strike like lightning, it is grasped for slaughter.

New International Reader’s Version

15 People’s hearts will melt away in fear. Many will be wounded or killed. I have prepared the sword to kill people at all their city gates. Look! It strikes like lightning. It is in the killer’s hand.

King James Version

15 I have set the point of the sword against all their gates, that their heart may faint, and their ruins be multiplied: ah! it is made bright, it is wrapped up for the slaughter.
