Context
8Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
9Son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus saith the LORD; Say, A sword, a sword is sharpened, and also furbished:
10It is sharpened to make a sore slaughter; it is furbished that it may glitter: should we then make mirth? it contemneth the rod of my son, every tree.
11And he hath given it to be furbished, that it may be handled: this sword is sharpened, and it is furbished, to give it into the hand of the slayer.
12Cry and howl, son of man: for it shall be upon my people, it upon all the princes of Israel: terrors by reason of the sword shall be upon my people: smite therefore upon thigh.
13Because a trial, and what if contemn even the rod? it shall be no saith the Lord GOD.
14Thou therefore, son of man, prophesy, and smite hands together, and let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of the slain: it the sword of the great slain, which entereth into their privy chambers.
