Ezekiel 21:26 Made Simple

KJV ORIGINAL

Thus saith the Lord GOD; Remove the diadem, and take off the crown: this shall not be the same: exalt him that is low, and abase him that is high.

Close to the original. Clear modern English.

✦ MADE SIMPLE

This is what the Lord God says: Take off that royal crown and remove the diadem. Everything's about to flip — the people who've been pushed down are getting lifted up, and those sitting pretty at the top are coming down.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

God's flipping the script — the overlooked are getting their moment and the powerful are losing theirs.
