Ezekiel 38:13

38:13 Sheba and Dedan and the traders of Tarshish with all its young warriors ³  will say to you, “Have you come to loot? Have you assembled your armies to plunder, to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to haul away a great amount of spoils?”’

[38:6]  ¹ tn The words “they are joined by” are added in the translation for purposes of English style.

[38:6]  ² sn The seven-nation coalition represents the north (Meshech, Tubal, Gomer, Beth-Togarmah), the south/west (Ethiopia, Put) and the east (Persia). The use of the sevenfold list suggests completeness. See D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:441.

[38:13]  ³ tn Heb “young lions.”
