it is polished to flash like lightning!

“‘Should we rejoice in the scepter of my son? No! The sword despises every tree!

to be grasped in the hand –

the sword is sharpened, it is polished –

giving it into the hand of the executioner.

for it is wielded against my people;

against all the princes of Israel.

They are delivered up to the sword, along with my people.

Therefore, strike your thigh.

and clap your hands together.

Let the sword strike twice, even three times!

It is a sword for slaughter,

a sword for the great slaughter surrounding them.

21:15 So hearts melt with fear and many stumble.

At all their gates I have stationed the sword for slaughter.

Ah! It is made to flash, it is drawn for slaughter!
