Ezekiel 27:20

27:20 Dedan was your client in saddlecloths for riding.

Ezekiel 27:23

27:23 Haran, Kanneh, Eden, merchants from Sheba, Asshur, and Kilmad were your clients.

Ezekiel 26:12

26:12 They will steal your wealth and loot your merchandise. They will tear down your walls and destroy your luxurious ¹  homes. Your stones, your trees, and your soil he will throw ²  into the water. ³ 

Ezekiel 28:16

28:16 In the abundance of your trade you were filled with violence, ⁴  and you sinned;

so I defiled you and banished you ⁵  from the mountain of God –

the guardian cherub expelled you ⁶  from the midst of the stones of fire.

Ezekiel 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.

[26:12]  ¹ tn Heb “desirable.”

[26:12]  ² tn Heb “set.”

[26:12]  ³ tn Heb “into the midst of the water.”

[28:16]  ¹ tn Heb “they filled your midst with violence.”

[28:16]  ² tn Heb “I defiled you.” The presence of the preposition “from” following the verb indicates that a verb of motion is implied as well. See L. C. Allen, Ezekiel (WBC), 2:91.

[28:16]  ³ tn Heb “and I expelled you, O guardian cherub.” The Hebrew text takes the verb as first person and understands “guardian cherub” as a vocative, in apposition to the pronominal suffix on the verb. However, if the emendation in verse 14a is accepted (see the note above), then one may follow the LXX here as well and emend the verb to a third person perfect. In this case the subject of the verb is the guardian cherub. See L. C. Allen, Ezekiel (WBC), 2:91.
