Ezekiel 9:5-7 But, unto these, said he in mine ears, Pass along through the city after him, and smite,––let not your eye, shield, neither have ye pity:

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ But, unto these, said he in mine ears, Pass along through the city after him, and smite,––let not your eye, shield, neither have ye pity: ⁶ elder, young man and virgin, and little ones and women, shall ye slay utterly, but, unto any man who hath upon him the mark, do not ye come near, and, at my sanctuary, shall ye begin. So they began with the elder men, who were before the house. ⁷ And he said unto them, Defile ye the house, and fill the courts with the slain,––go ye forth! So they went forth, and smote in the city.
