Ezekiel 17:14-16

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁴ ‘so that the kingdom might be in subjection, and not lift itself up, keeping their covenant so that it might stand.

¹⁵ ‘But he rebelled against him and sent his ambassadors into Egypt, so that they might give him horses and many people. Shall he prosper? Shall he escape who does such things? Or shall he break the covenant and still be delivered?

¹⁶ ‘As I live,’ says the Lord GOD, ‘in the place of the king who made him king, whose oath he despised, and whose covenant he broke, with him he shall die in the midst of Babel.
