Ezekiel 9:8

And it came to pass, while they were slaying them, and I was left, that I fell upon my face, and cried, and said, Ah Lord GOD! wilt thou destroy all the residue of Israel in thy pouring out of thy fury upon Jerusalem?

KJV

Et cæde completa, remansi ego, ruique super faciem meam, et clamans aio : Heu ! heu ! heu ! Domine Deus : ergone disperdes omnes reliquias Israël, effundens furorem tuum super Jerusalem ?

Vulgate

καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ κόπτειν αὐτοὺς καὶ πίπτω ἐπὶ πρόσωπόν μου, καὶ ἀνεβόησα καὶ εἶπα Οἴμοι, Κύριε, ἐξαλείφεις σὺ τοὺς καταλοίπους τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ ἐν τῷ ἐκχέαι σε τὸν θυμόν σου ἐπὶ Ἰερουσαλήμ;

LXX

And it came to pass, while they were smiting, and I was left, that I fell upon my face, and cried, and said, Ah Lord Jehovah! wilt thou destroy all the residue of Israel in thy pouring out of thy wrath upon Jerusalem?
