Yehezkiel 13:9

13:9 My hand will be against the prophets who see delusion and announce lying omens. They will not be included in the council ¹  of my people, nor be written in the registry ²  of the house of Israel, nor enter the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the sovereign Lord.

Yehezkiel 14:11

14:11 so that the house of Israel will no longer go astray from me, nor continue to defile themselves by all their sins. They will be my people and I will be their God, ³  declares the sovereign Lord.’”

Yehezkiel 24:13

24:13 You mix uncleanness with obscene conduct. ⁴ 

I tried to cleanse you, ⁵  but you are not clean.

You will not be cleansed from your uncleanness ⁶ 

until I have exhausted my anger on you.

Yehezkiel 25:13

25:13 So this is what the sovereign Lord says: I will stretch out my hand against Edom, and I will kill the people and animals within her, ⁷  and I will make her desolate; from Teman to Dedan they will die ⁸  by the sword.

Yehezkiel 28:25

28:25 “‘This is what the sovereign Lord says: When I regather the house of Israel from the peoples where they are dispersed, I will reveal my sovereign power ⁹  over them in the sight of the nations, and they will live in their land that I gave to my servant Jacob.

Yehezkiel 37:12

37:12 Therefore prophesy, and tell them, ‘This is what the sovereign Lord says: Look, I am about to open your graves and will raise you from your graves, my people. I will bring you to the land of Israel.

[13:9]  ¹ tn The Hebrew term may refer to the secret council of the Lord (Jer 23:18; Job 15:8), but here it more likely refers to a human council comprised of civic leaders (Gen 49:6; Jer 6:11; 15:17 Ps 64:3; 111:1).

[13:9]  ² tn The reference here is probably to a civil list (as in Ezra 2:16; Neh 7:64) rather than to a “book of life” (Exod 32:32; Isa 4:3; Ps 69:29; Dan 12:1). This registry may have been established at the making of David’s census (2 Sam 24:2, 9).

[14:11]  ³ sn I will be their God. See Exod 6:7; Lev 26:12; Jer 7:23; 11:4.

[24:13]  ⁴ tn Heb “in your uncleanness (is) obscene conduct.”

[24:13]  ⁵ tn Heb “because I cleansed you.” In this context (see especially the very next statement), the statement must refer to divine intention and purpose. Despite God’s efforts to cleanse his people, they resisted him and remained morally impure.

[24:13]  ⁶ tn The Hebrew text adds the word “again.”

[25:13]  ⁷ tn Heb “and I will cut off from her man and beast.”

[25:13]  ⁸ tn Heb “fall.”

[28:25]  ⁹ tn Or “reveal my holiness.” See verse 22.
