46“Son of man, set your face toward the south, preach against it, and prophesy against the forest of the Negev.
47Say to the forest of the Negev: Hear the word of the LORD! This is what the Lord GOD says: I am about to ignite in you a fire, and it will devour all your trees, both green and dry. The blazing flame will not be quenched, and by it every face from south to north will be scorched.
48Then all people will see that I, the LORD, have kindled it; it will not be quenched.”
— Ezekiel 20:46-48
