Ezekiel 21:18
16 Slash to the right; set your blade to the left— wherever your blade is directed.
17 I too will strike My hands together, and I will satisfy My wrath.’ I, the LORD, have spoken.”
Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
19 “Now you, son of man, mark out two roads for the sword of the king of Babylon to take, both starting from the same land. And make a signpost where the road branches off to each city.
20 Mark out one road for the sword to come against Rabbah of the Ammonites, and another against Judah into fortified Jerusalem.
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
