Ezekiel 17:16-18

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁶ As I live, says the Lord God, in the land of the king who made him king,^[a] whose oath he despised and whose covenant he broke, in his presence in Babylon, he shall die. ¹⁷ He will not be joined by a mighty army or a great force during the war, because Pharaoh will not come when the enemy heaps up ramps and builds siege walls in order to cut off many lives. ¹⁸ The king despised the oath by breaking the covenant. Even though he had given his hand to seal the covenant, he did all these things. He shall not escape!
