EZEKIEL 14:16 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Though these three men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord God, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters; they only shall be delivered, but the land shall be desolate.”
Or if I cause a pestilence to pass through the land, pouring out My blood-judgment upon it, cutting off from it human and animal, even if Noah, Daniel, and Job were in it, as I live, declares the Lord God, they would deliver neither son nor daughter—they alone would be delivered. Pestilence joins the arsenal of God's judgment, expanding the types of calamity through which God enforces accountability. The phrase "pouring out My blood-judgment" emphasizes the divine intentionality and intensity of the judgment. The consistent conclusion across all variants reinforces the principle's absolute validity.
