⁹ Son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus saith the LORD; say, A sword, a sword is sharpened, and also furbished:

²² For the LORD will not forsake his people for his great name's sake: because it hath pleased the LORD to make you his people.

²⁶ This is the plan that is determined for the whole earth. This is the hand that is stretched out over all the nations.
