[4:17]  ¹ tn Or “in their punishment.” Ezek 4:16-17 alludes to Lev 26:26, 39. The phrase “in/for [a person’s] iniquity” occurs fourteen times in Ezekiel: here, 3:18, 19; 7:13, 16; 18: 17, 18, 19, 20; 24:23; 33:6, 8, 9; 39:23. The Hebrew word for “iniquity” may also mean the “punishment for iniquity.”

[33:10]  ² tn Heb “(are) upon us.”

[26:39]  ³ tn Heb “in” (so KJV, ASV; also later in this verse).

[26:39]  ⁴ tn Heb “fathers’” (also in the following verse).
