Ezekiel 17:13-19

13Then he tookH3947 one of the royalH4410 12familyH2233 and madeH3772 a covenantH1285 with him, 3puttingH935 him under 4oathH423. He also tookH3947 away the 5mightyH352 of the landH776,

14so that the kingdomH4467 would 6be humbledH8217, not exaltingH5375 itself, but keepingH8104 his covenantH1285 so that it might continueH5975.

15But 7he 8revoltedH4775 against 9him by sendingH7971 his messengersH4397 to EgyptH4714 so that they might giveH5414 him horsesH5483 and manyH7227 10troopsH5971. Will he succeedH6743? Will he who doesH6213 theseH428 thingsH428 11escapeH4422? Can he indeed breakH6565 the covenantH1285 and escapeH4422?

16As I liveH2416,’ declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068, ‘In the 12countryH4725 of the kingH4428 who 13putH4427 him on the throneH4427, whoseH834 oathH423 he 14despisedH959 and whoseH834 covenantH1285 he brokeH6565, 1516in BabylonH894 he shall certainlyH518H3808 dieH4191.

1717PharaohH6547 with his mightyH1419 armyH2428 and greatH7227 contingentH6951 will not 18helpH6213 him in the warH4421, when they pileH8210 upH8210 assaultH5550 rampsH5550 and buildH1129 siegeH1785 wallsH1785 to eliminateH3772 manyH7227 livesH5315.

18Now he despisedH959 the oathH423 by breakingH6565 the covenantH1285, and beholdH2009, he 1920pledgedH5414 his allegianceH3027, yet didH6213 allH3605 theseH428 thingsH428; he shall not escapeH4422.’”

19ThereforeH3651, thisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH136 GodH3068 saysH559: “As I liveH2416, My oathH423 whichH834 he despisedH959 and My covenantH1285 whichH834 he brokeH6565, I will certainlyH518H3808 21inflictH5414 on his headH7218.
