Yehezkiel 28:26

28:26 They will live securely in it; they will build houses and plant vineyards. They will live securely ¹  when I execute my judgments on all those who scorn them and surround them. Then they will know that I am the Lord their God.’”

Hosea 12:10

12:10 I spoke to the prophets;

I myself revealed many visions; ² 

I spoke in parables ³  through ⁴  the prophets.”

[28:26]  ¹ sn This promise was given in Lev 25:18-19.

[12:10]  ² tn Heb “I myself multiplied vision[s]”; cf. NASB “I gave numerous visions.”

[12:10]  ³ tn There is debate whether אֲדַמֶּה (’adammeh, Piel imperfect 1st person common singular) is derived from I דָמָה (damah, “similitude, parable”) or II דָמָה (“oracle of doom”). The lexicons favor the former (BDB 198 s.v. I דָּמָה 1; HALOT 225-26 s.v. I דמה). Most translators favor “parables” (cf. KJV, RSV, NASB, NIV, NJPS), but a few opt for “oracles of doom” (cf. NRSV, TEV, CEV).

[12:10]  ⁴ tn Heb “by the hand of”; KJV, ASV “by the ministry of.”
