Ezekiel 28:21

Son of man, set thy face against Zidon, and prophesy against it,
19

All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any more.

20

Again the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

21

Son of man, set thy face against Zidon, and prophesy against it,

22

And say, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against thee, O Zidon; and I will be glorified in the midst of thee: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have executed judgments in her, and shall be sanctified in her.

23

For I will send into her pestilence, and blood into her streets; and the wounded shall be judged in the midst of her by the sword upon her on every side; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
