The passage comes from Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction, released in 1994, where Jules Winnfield recites a loosely adapted version of Ezekiel 25:17 before shooting Brett. Samuel L. Jackson's performance turned the speech into one of the film's most quoted moments, widely sampled, parodied and shared online long after release. Its mix of biblical language and street level threat helped it move from movie dialogue into meme culture, where short excerpts are reused whenever someone wants an exaggerated sense of authority or final judgement in a joke.
