Ezekiel 33:26

Anglican
SCRIPTURE

"Ye stand upon your sword, ye work abomination, and ye defile every one his neighbor`s wife: and shall ye possess the land?" — Ezekiel 33:26 (ASV)

Ye stand upon your sword. Not to engage in war, which is not what is meant here, but to take part in individual crimes of violence.
