Yehezkiel 8:18

8:18 Therefore I will act with fury! My eye will not pity them nor will I spare ¹  them. When they have shouted in my ears, I will not listen to them.”

Yehezkiel 20:8

20:8 But they rebelled against me, and refused to listen to me; no one got rid of their detestable idols, ²  nor did they abandon the idols of Egypt. Then I decided to pour out ³  my rage on them and fully vent my anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt.

Yehezkiel 20:31

20:31 When you present your sacrifices ⁴  – when you make your sons pass through the fire – you defile yourselves with all your idols to this very day. Will I allow you to seek me, ⁵  O house of Israel? As surely as I live, declares the sovereign Lord, I will not allow you to seek me! ⁶ 

Yehezkiel 39:23

39:23 The nations will know that the house of Israel went into exile due to their iniquity, ⁷  for they were unfaithful to me. So I hid my face from them and handed them over to their enemies; all of them died by the sword.

[8:18]  ¹ tn The meaning of the Hebrew term is primarily emotional: “to pity,” which in context implies an action, as in being moved by pity in order to spare them from the horror of their punishment.

[20:8]  ² tn Heb “each one, the detestable things of their eyes did not throw away.”

[20:8]  ³ tn Heb “and I said/thought to pour out.”

[20:31]  ⁴ tn Or “gifts.”

[20:31]  ⁵ tn Or “Will I reveal myself to you?”

[20:31]  ⁶ tn Or “I will not reveal myself to you.”

[39:23]  ⁷ tn Or “in their punishment.” The phrase “in/for [a person’s] iniquity/punishment” occurs fourteen times in Ezekiel: here; 3:18, 19; 4:17; 7:13, 16; 18: 17, 18, 19, 20; 24:23; 33:6, 8, 9. The Hebrew word for “iniquity” may also mean the “punishment” for iniquity or “guilt” of iniquity.
