Behold, six men [angelic beings] came from the direction of the Upper Gate, which faces north, each with his battle-axe in his hand; and among them was a [a]certain man clothed in linen, with a scribe’s writing case at his side. They entered and stood beside the bronze altar.
And, behold, six men came from the way of the higher gate, which lieth toward the north, and every man a slaughter weapon in his hand; and one man among them was clothed with linen, with a writer's inkhorn by his side: and they went in, and stood beside the brasen altar.
Six men came down the road from the upper gate that faces north, each carrying his lethal weapon. With them was a man dressed in linen with a writing case slung from his shoulder. They entered and stood by the bronze altar. 3-4 The Glory of the God of Israel ascended from his usual place above the cherubim-angels, moved to the threshold of the Temple, and called to the man with the writing case who was dressed in linen: “Go through the streets of Jerusalem and put a mark on the forehead of everyone who is in anguish over the outrageous obscenities being done in the city.” 5-6 I listened as he went on to address the executioners: “Follow him through the city and kill. Feel sorry for no one. Show no compassion. Kill old men and women, young men and women, mothers and children. But don’t lay a hand on anyone with the mark. Start at my Temple.”They started with the leaders in front of the Temple. 7-8 He told the executioners, “Desecrate the Temple. Fill it with corpses. Then go out and continue the killing.” So they went out and struck the city.While the massacre went forward, I was left alone. I fell on my face in prayer: “Oh, oh, God, my Master! Are you going to kill everyone left in Israel in this pouring out of your anger on Jerusalem?” 9-10 He said, “The guilt of Israel and Judah is enormous. The land is swollen with murder. The city is bloated with injustice. They all say, ‘God has forsaken the country. He doesn’t see anything we do.’ Well, I do see, and I’m not feeling sorry for any of them. They’re going to pay for what they’ve done.”

فَأَقْبَلَ سِتَّةُ رِجَالٍ مِنْ طَرِيقِ الْبَابِ الشِّمَالِيِّ الأَعْلَى، وَكُلُّ وَاحِدٍ يَحْمِلُ عُدَّةَ تَدْمِيرِهِ بِيَدِهِ، يَتَوَسَّطُهُمْ رَجُلٌ مُرْتَدٍ كَتَّاناً، وَعَلَى خَاصِرَتِهِ دَوَاةُ كَاتِبٍ. فَدَخَلُوا وَوَقَفُوا إِلَى جُوَارِ مَذْبَحِ النُّحَاسِ.

Da kom der seks mænd ind gennem den nordlige port i den ydre forgård, alle med våben i hånden. Desuden var der en, som var klædt i linned og bar nogle skriveredskaber. De gik alle hen og tog opstilling ved bronzealteret foran indgangen til templet, 3-4 og Israels Guds stråleglans løftede sig fra sin sædvanlige plads over keruberne og stod nu ved templets indgang. „Gå gennem Jerusalems gader,” råbte Herren til manden med skriveredskaberne, „og sæt et mærke på panden af alle dem, som græder og sukker over al den synd, de ser omkring sig.”
