¹ tn Or “punishment” (also in vv. 5, 6).

² tn Heb “in the seeing concerning you falsehood, in divining concerning you a lie.” This probably refers to the attempts of the Ammonites to ward off judgment through prophetic visions and divination.

³ tn Heb “you”; the referent (the sword mentioned in v. 28) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

⁴ sn The second half of the verse appears to state that the sword of judgment would fall upon the wicked, despite their efforts to prevent it.

³ sn Outside of its seven occurrences in Ezekiel the term translated “possession” appears only in Exod 6:8 and Deut 33:4.

⁴ tn Heb “good.”

⁵ sn See Isa 24:5; 55:3; 61:8; Jer 32:40; 50:5; Ezek 16:60, for other references to perpetual covenants.

⁶ tn Heb “give them.”

⁶ tn Heb “twenty-five thousand cubits” (i.e., 13.125 kilometers).

⁷ tn Heb “ten thousand cubits” (i.e., 5.25 kilometers).

⁸ tc The translation follows the LXX here. The MT reads “twenty.” See L. C. Allen, Ezekiel (WBC), 2:246.
