Ezekiel 13:12
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Surely when the wall has fallen, you will not be asked, ‘Where is the whitewash with which you covered it?’
In context
10 Because they have led My people astray, saying, ‘Peace,’ when there is no peace, and whitewashing any flimsy wall that is built,
11 tell those whitewashing the wall that it will fall. Rain will come in torrents, I will send hailstones plunging down, and a windstorm will burst forth.
12 Surely when the wall has fallen, you will not be asked, ‘Where is the whitewash with which you covered it?’
13 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: In My wrath I will release a windstorm, and in My anger torrents of rain and hail will fall with destructive fury.
14 I will tear down the wall you whitewashed and level it to the ground, so that its foundation is exposed. The city will fall, and you will be destroyed within it. Then you will know that I am the LORD.
