Ezekiel 21:32

32 You will be like fuel for the fire; you will die in the land. You will not be remembered, because I, the Lord, have spoken.'"

Ezekiel 21:32 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 21:32

Thou shalt be for fuel for the fire
Easily consumed, as briers and thorns cast into a furnace; such are wicked men to the fire of God's wrath: thy blood shall be in the midst of the land;
such large numbers shall be slain everywhere, that the land shall flow with the blood of them; who shall lie unburied, and rot, and putrefy upon the ground: thou shalt be no more remembered;
but lie in everlasting oblivion, as they do to this day; the name of an Ammonite being nowhere mentioned and heard of: for I the Lord have spoken it;
who never alters the thing that is gone out of his lips; and sooner shall heaven and earth pass away than one word of his. The Targum is,

``for I the Lord have decreed by my word;''
and his counsel shall stand, and every purpose and resolution of his shall be accomplished.

Ezekiel 21:32 In-Context

30 Put the sword back in its holder. I will judge you in the place where you were created, in the land where you were born.
31 I will pour out my anger against you and blast you with the fire of my anger. I will hand you over to cruel men, experts in destruction.
32 You will be like fuel for the fire; you will die in the land. You will not be remembered, because I, the Lord, have spoken.'"
