Ezekiel 17:13-19

« Ezek 16Ezek 17Ezek 18 »

13 He took one of the royal ^aseed and cut a covenant with him and brought him under ^boath. He also took away the ^cdominant one of the land, 14 that the kingdom might ¹^abecome lowly, not lifting itself up, but keeping his covenant that it might continue. 15 But he ^arebelled against him by sending his messengers to Egypt that they might give him horses and many ¹troops. Will he succeed? Will he who does such things ^bescape? Can he indeed break the covenant and escape? 16 As I live,’ declares Lord Yahweh, ‘Surely in the ¹country of the king who made him king, whose oath he ^adespised and whose covenant he broke, ²^bin Babylon he shall die. 17 ^aAnd Pharaoh with his mighty military force and great assembly will not ¹help him in the war, when they cast up ramps and build siege walls to cut off many lives. 18 Now he despised the oath by breaking the covenant, and behold, he ¹^apledged his allegiance, yet did all these things; he shall not escape.’” 19 Therefore, thus says Lord Yahweh, “As I live, surely My oath which he despised and My covenant which he broke, I will ¹put on his head.

13 ^aHe also rebelled against King Nebuchadnezzar who had made him swear allegiance by God. But ^bhe stiffened his neck and hardened his heart against turning to Yahweh, the God of Israel.
