Ezekiel 7:14

They have blown the trumpet, even to make all ready; but none goeth to the battle: for my wrath is upon all the multitude thereof.

They have blown the trumpet - rather, 'Blow the trumpet,' or, 'Let them blow the trumpet,' to collect soldiers as they will, "to make all ready" for encountering the foe, it will be of no avail; none will have the courage to go to the battle (cf. ). (Calvin.)
