Ezekiel 16:45

16:45 You are the daughter of your mother, who detested her husband and her sons, and you are the sister of your sisters who detested their husbands and their sons. Your mother was a Hittite and your father an Amorite.

Ezekiel 21:29

21:29 while seeing false visions for you

and reading lying omens for you ¹  –

to place that sword ²  on the necks of the profane wicked, ³ 

whose day has come,

the time of final punishment.

Ezekiel 23:32

23:32 “This is what the sovereign Lord says: “You will drink your sister’s deep and wide cup; ⁴  you will be scorned and derided, for it holds a great deal.

Ezekiel 38:17

38:17 “‘This is what the sovereign Lord says: Are you the one of whom I spoke in former days by my servants ⁵  the prophets of Israel, who prophesied in those days ⁶  that I would bring you against them?

[21:29]  ¹ 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.

[21:29]  ² tn Heb “you”; the referent (the sword mentioned in v. 28) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[21:29]  ³ 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.

[23:32]  ¹ sn The image of a deep and wide cup suggests the degree of punishment; it will be extensive and leave the victim helpless.

[38:17]  ¹ tn Heb “by the hand of my servants.”

[38:17]  ² tn The Hebrew text adds “years” here, but this is probably a scribal gloss on the preceding phrase. See L. C. Allen, Ezekiel (WBC), 2:201.
