Ezekiel 17:11-18
11Moreover the wordH1697 of Jehovah came unto me, sayingH559, 12SayH559 now to the rebelliousH4805 houseH1004, KnowH3045 ye not what these thingsH428 mean? tell them, Behold, the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 cameH935 to JerusalemH3389, and tookH3947 the kingH4428 thereof, and the princesH8269 thereof, and broughtH935 them to him to BabylonH894. 13And he tookH3947 of the seedH2233 royal, and madeH3772 a covenantH1285 with him; he also broughtH935 him under an oathH423, and tookH3947 awayH3947 the mighty of the landH776; 14that the kingdomH4467 might beH1961 base, that it might not liftH5375 itself up, but that by keepingH8104 his covenantH1285 it might standH5975. 15But he rebelledH4775 against him in sendingH7971 his ambassadors into EgyptH4714, that they might giveH5414 him horsesH5483 and muchH7227 peopleH5971. Shall he prosperH6743? shall he escapeH4422 that doeth such thingsH428? shall he breakH6565 the covenantH1285, and yet escapeH4422? 16As I live, saith the LordH136 Jehovah, surely in the placeH4725 whereH834 the kingH4428 dwelleth that made him kingH4428, whose oathH423 he despisedH959, and whose covenantH1285 he brake, even with him in the midstH8432 of BabylonH894 he shall dieH4191. 17Neither shall PharaohH6547 with his mighty armyH2428 and greatH1419 companyH6951 help him in the warH4421, when they cast up mounds and buildH1129 forts, to cutH3772 off manyH7227 personsH5315. 18For he hath despisedH959 the oathH423 by breaking the covenantH1285; and behold, he had givenH5414 his handH3027, and yet hath done all these thingsH428; he shall not escapeH4422.
