Ezekiel 21:28 in Context — Ezekiel 21
26 Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: Depón la tiara, quita la corona: ésta no [será] más ésta: al bajo alzaré, y al alto abatiré.
27 Del revés, del revés, del revés la tornaré; y no será ésta más, hasta que venga aquel cuyo es el derecho, y [se] la entregaré.
28 Y tú, hijo del hombre, profetiza, y di: Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová sobre los hijos de Ammón, y su oprobio. Dirás pues: La espada, la espada está desenvainada para degollar; acicalada para consumir con resplandor.
29 Te profetizan vanidad, adivínante mentira, para entregarte con los cuellos de los malos sentenciados á muerte, cuyo día vino en tiempo de la consumación de la maldad.
30 ¿Tornaréla á su vaina? En el lugar donde te criaste, en la tierra donde has vivido, te tengo de juzgar.
