Ezekiel 13:11

13:11 Tell the ones who coat it with whitewash that it will fall. When there is a deluge of rain, hailstones ¹  will fall and a violent wind will break out. ² 

Ezekiel 13:13

13:13 “‘Therefore this is what the sovereign Lord says: In my rage I will make a violent wind break out. In my anger there will be a deluge of rain and hailstones in destructive fury.

Ezekiel 26:10

26:10 He will cover you with the dust kicked up by his many horses. ³  Your walls will shake from the noise of the horsemen, wheels, and chariots when he enters your gates like those who invade through a city’s broken walls. ⁴ 

Ezekiel 29:7

29:7 when they grasped you with their hand, ⁵  you broke and tore ⁶  their shoulders,

and when they leaned on you, you splintered and caused their legs to be unsteady. ⁷ 

[13:11]  ¹ tn Heb “and you, O hailstones.”

[13:11]  ² sn A violent wind will break out. God’s judgments are frequently described in storm imagery (Pss 18:7-15; 77:17-18; 83:15; Isa 28:17; 30:30; Jer 23:19; 30:23).

[26:10]  ³ tn Heb “From the abundance of his horses he will cover you (with) their dust.”

[26:10]  ⁴ tn Heb “like those who enter a breached city.”

[29:7]  ⁵ tn The Hebrew consonantal text (Kethib) has “by your hand,” but the marginal reading (Qere) has simply “by the hand.” The LXX reads “with their hand.”

[29:7]  ⁶ tn Or perhaps “dislocated.”

[29:7]  ⁷ tn Heb “you caused to stand for them all their hips.” An emendation which switches two letters but is supported by the LXX yields the reading “you caused all their hips to shake.” See L. C. Allen, Ezekiel (WBC), 2:103. In 2 Kgs 18:21 and Isa 36:6 trusting in the Pharaoh is compared to leaning on a staff. The oracle may reflect Hophra’s attempt to aid Jerusalem (Jer 37:5-8).
