Yehezkiel 5:7

5:7 “Therefore this is what the sovereign Lord says: Because you are more arrogant ¹  than the nations around you, ²  you have not followed my statutes and have not carried out my regulations. You have not even ³  carried out the regulations of the nations around you!

Yehezkiel 13:9

13:9 My hand will be against the prophets who see delusion and announce lying omens. They will not be included in the council ⁴  of my people, nor be written in the registry ⁵  of the house of Israel, nor enter the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the sovereign Lord.

Yehezkiel 16:52

16:52 So now, bear your disgrace, because you have given your sisters reason to justify their behavior. ⁶  Because the sins you have committed were more abominable than those of your sisters; they have become more righteous than you. So now, be ashamed and bear the disgrace of making your sisters appear righteous.

Yehezkiel 21:22

21:22 Into his right hand ⁷  comes the portent for Jerusalem – to set up battering rams, to give the signal ⁸  for slaughter, to shout out the battle cry, ⁹  to set up battering rams against the gates, to erect a siege ramp, to build a siege wall.

Yehezkiel 24:13

24:13 You mix uncleanness with obscene conduct. ¹⁰ 

I tried to cleanse you, ¹¹  but you are not clean.

You will not be cleansed from your uncleanness ¹² 

until I have exhausted my anger on you.

Yehezkiel 26:7

26:7 “For this is what the sovereign Lord says: Take note that ¹³  I am about to bring King Nebuchadrezzar ¹⁴  of Babylon, king of kings, against Tyre from the north, with horses, chariots, and horsemen, an army and hordes of people.

Yehezkiel 28:18

28:18 By the multitude of your iniquities, through the sinfulness of your trade,

you desecrated your sanctuaries.

So I drew fire out from within you;

it consumed you,

and I turned you to ashes on the earth

before the eyes of all who saw you.

Yehezkiel 30:9

30:9 On that day messengers will go out from me in ships to frighten overly confident Ethiopia; panic will overtake them on the day of Egypt’s doom; ¹⁵  for beware – it is coming!

Yehezkiel 30:22

30:22 Therefore this is what the sovereign Lord says: Look, ¹⁶  I am against ¹⁷  Pharaoh king of Egypt, and I will break his arms, the strong arm and the broken one, and I will make the sword drop from his hand.

Yehezkiel 33:13

33:13 Suppose I tell the righteous that he will certainly live, but he becomes confident in his righteousness and commits iniquity. None of his righteous deeds will be remembered; because of the iniquity he has committed he will die.

Yehezkiel 34:18

34:18 Is it not enough for you to feed on the good pasture, that you must trample the rest of your pastures with your feet? When you drink clean water, must you muddy the rest of the water by trampling it with your feet?

Yehezkiel 36:11

36:11 I will increase the number of people and animals on you; they will increase and be fruitful. ¹⁸  I will cause you to be inhabited as in ancient times, and will do more good for you than at the beginning of your history. ¹⁹  Then you will know that I am the Lord.

[5:7]  ¹ tn Traditionally this difficult form has been derived from a hypothetical root הָמוֹן (hamon), supposedly meaning “be in tumult/uproar,” but such a verb occurs nowhere else. It is more likely that it is to be derived from a root מָנוֹן (manon), meaning “disdain” (see L. C. Allen, Ezekiel [WBC], 1:52). A derivative from this root is used in Prov 29:21 of a rebellious servant. See HALOT 600 s.v. מָנוֹן.

[5:7]  ² sn You are more arrogant than the nations around you. Israel is accused of being worse than the nations in Ezek 16:27; 2 Kgs 21:11; Jer 2:11.

[5:7]  ³ tc Some Hebrew mss and the Syriac omit the words “not even.” In this case they are being accused of following the practices of the surrounding nations. See Ezek 11:12.

[13:9]  ⁴ tn The Hebrew term may refer to the secret council of the Lord (Jer 23:18; Job 15:8), but here it more likely refers to a human council comprised of civic leaders (Gen 49:6; Jer 6:11; 15:17 Ps 64:3; 111:1).

[13:9]  ⁵ tn The reference here is probably to a civil list (as in Ezra 2:16; Neh 7:64) rather than to a “book of life” (Exod 32:32; Isa 4:3; Ps 69:29; Dan 12:1). This registry may have been established at the making of David’s census (2 Sam 24:2, 9).

[16:52]  ⁶ tn Heb “because you have interceded for your sisters with your sins.”

[21:22]  ⁷ tn Or “on the right side,” i.e., the omen mark on the right side of the liver.

[21:22]  ⁸ tn Heb “to open the mouth” for slaughter.

[21:22]  ⁹ tn Heb “to raise up a voice in a battle cry.”

[24:13]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “in your uncleanness (is) obscene conduct.”

[24:13]  ¹¹ tn Heb “because I cleansed you.” In this context (see especially the very next statement), the statement must refer to divine intention and purpose. Despite God’s efforts to cleanse his people, they resisted him and remained morally impure.

[24:13]  ¹² tn The Hebrew text adds the word “again.”

[26:7]  ¹³ tn The word הִנֵּה (hinneh, traditionally “behold”) draws attention to something.

[26:7]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “Nebuchadrezzar” is a variant and more correct spelling of Nebuchadnezzar, as the Babylonian name Nabu-kudurri-usur has an an “r” rather than an “n.”

[30:9]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “in the day of Egypt.” The word “doom” has been added in the translation to clarify the nature of this day.

[30:22]  ¹⁶ tn The word h!nn@h indicates becoming aware of something and has been translated here as a verb.

[30:22]  ¹⁷ tn Or “I challenge you.” The phrase “I am against you” may be a formula for challenging someone to combat or a duel. See D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 1:201-2, and P. Humbert, “Die Herausforderungsformel ‘h!nn#n' ?l?K>,’” ZAW 45 (1933): 101-8.

[36:11]  ¹⁸ sn These verbs occur together in Gen 1:22, 28; 9:1.

[36:11]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “your beginning.”
