19 All those who know you among the peoples will be astonished at you. You have become a terror, and you will exist no more.”’”

20 The LORD’s word came to me, saying,

21 “Son of man, set your face toward Sidon, and prophesy against it,

22 and say, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Behold, I am against you, Sidon. I will be glorified among you. Then they will know that I am the LORD, when I have executed judgments in her, and am sanctified in her.

23 For I will send pestilence into her, and blood into her streets. The wounded will fall within her, with the sword on her on every side. Then they will know that I am the LORD.
