Yehezkiel 6:9

6:9 Then your survivors will remember me among the nations where they are exiled. They will realize ¹  how I was crushed by their unfaithful ²  heart which turned from me and by their eyes which lusted after their idols. They will loathe themselves ³  because of the evil they have done and because of all their abominable practices.

Yehezkiel 21:7

21:7 When they ask you, ‘Why are you groaning?’ you will reply, ‘Because of the report that has come. Every heart will melt with fear and every hand will be limp; everyone ⁴  will faint and every knee will be wet with urine.’ ⁵  Pay attention – it is coming and it will happen, declares the sovereign Lord.”

Yehezkiel 31:14

31:14 For this reason no watered trees will grow so tall; their tops will not reach into the clouds, nor will the well-watered ones grow that high. ⁶  For all of them have been appointed to die in the lower parts of the earth; ⁷  they will be among mere mortals, ⁸  with those who descend to the pit.

Yehezkiel 31:18

31:18 Which of the trees of Eden was like you in majesty and loftiness? You will be brought down with the trees of Eden to the lower parts of the earth; you will lie among the uncircumcised, with those killed by the sword! This is what will happen to Pharaoh and all his hordes, declares the sovereign Lord.’”

Yehezkiel 40:7

40:7 The alcoves were 10½ feet long and 10½ feet wide; between the alcoves were 8¾ feet. ⁹  The threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate facing inward was 10½ feet.

Yehezkiel 45:7

45:7 “‘For the prince there will be land on both sides of the holy allotment and the allotted city, alongside the holy allotment and the allotted city, on the west side and on the east side; it will be comparable in length to one of the portions, from the west border to the east border

Yehezkiel 48:21

48:21 “The rest, on both sides of the holy allotment and the property of the city, will belong to the prince. Extending from the eight and a quarter miles ¹⁰  of the holy allotment to the east border, and westward from the eight and a quarter miles ¹¹  to the west border, alongside the portions, it will belong to the prince. The holy allotment and the sanctuary of the temple will be in the middle of it.

[6:9]  ¹ tn The words “they will realize” are not in the Hebrew text; they are added here for stylistic reasons since this clause assumes the previous verb “to remember” or “to take into account.”

[6:9]  ² tn Heb “how I was broken by their adulterous heart.” The image of God being “broken” is startling, but perfectly natural within the metaphorical framework of God as offended husband. The idiom must refer to the intense grief that Israel’s unfaithfulness caused God. For a discussion of the syntax and semantics of the Hebrew text, see M. Greenberg, Ezekiel (AB), 1:134.

[6:9]  ³ tn Heb adds “in their faces.”

[21:7]  ⁴ tn Heb “every spirit will be dim.”

[21:7]  ⁵ sn This expression depicts in a very vivid way how they will be overcome with fear. See the note on the same phrase in 7:17.

[31:14]  ⁶ tn Heb “and they will not stand to them in their height, all the drinkers of water.”

[31:14]  ⁷ tn Heb “for death, to the lower earth.”

[31:14]  ⁸ tn Heb “the sons of men.”

[40:7]  ⁹ tn Heb “five cubits” (i.e., 2.625 meters) according to the “long” cubit. See the note on the first occurrence of the phrase “10½ feet” in v. 5.

[48:21]  ¹⁰ tn Heb “twenty-five thousand cubits” (i.e., 13.125 kilometers).

[48:21]  ¹¹ tn Heb “twenty-five thousand cubits” (i.e., 13.125 kilometers).
