Ezekiel 7:22

¹⁷I will scatter them as with an east wind before the enemy. I will show them the back, and not the face, in the day of their calamity.

¹¹He says in his heart, “God has forgotten. He hides his face. He will never see it.”

¹⁰How long, God, shall the adversary reproach? Shall the enemy blaspheme your name forever? ¹¹Why do you draw back your hand, even your right hand? Take it from your chest and consume them!

¹⁸Remember this, that the enemy has mocked you, LORD. Foolish people have blasphemed your name. ¹⁹Don’t deliver the soul of your dove to wild beasts. Don’t forget the life of your poor forever. ²⁰Honor your covenant, for haunts of violence fill the dark places of the earth. ²¹Don’t let the oppressed return ashamed. Let the poor and needy praise your name. ²²Arise, God! Plead your own cause. Remember how the foolish man mocks you all day. ²³Don’t forget the voice of your adversaries. The tumult of those who rise up against you ascends continually.

²³The nations will know that the house of Israel went into captivity for their iniquity, because they trespassed against me, and I hid my face from them; so I gave them into the hand of their adversaries, and they all fell by the sword. ²⁴I did to them according to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions. I hid my face from them.

²²You have seen it, LORD. Don’t keep silent. Lord, don’t be far from me.
