আৰু চোৱা! সেই দিন আহি পালেহি। বিনাশ ওলাই আহিল। তোমালোকৰ দণ্ডডালিত অহঙ্কাৰৰ কলি ধৰিলে।

What Does This Mean?

Ezekiel speaks about an approaching day of judgment. He uses nature imagery to describe how this moment is inevitable, like a morning that can't be stopped or a flower that has blossomed. The verse warns about pride and the consequences of it.

Explained for Children

Imagine you plant a seed and it grows into a flower. You can't stop it from growing, just like how Ezekiel says a day is coming that can't be stopped. This day is about people being too proud, and that's not good.

Historical Background

Ezekiel, a prophet, wrote this around 592 BCE while the Babylonians were besieging Jerusalem. The verse is part of a message to the people of Israel, warning them of the consequences of their pride and sinfulness.

Living It Out Today

In a modern context, think of a company that becomes too confident and stops listening to advice. Just like the verse, the company might face consequences because it didn't heed warnings.
