Ezekiel 17:18-20
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
18 He ignored his oath, breaking his covenant;
even though he gave his hand, he did all these things—
he shall not escape!(A)
19 Therefore, thus says the Lord God:
As I live, my oath which he spurned,
And my covenant which he broke,
I will bring down on his head.
20 I will spread my net over him,
and he will be caught in my snare.
I will bring him to Babylon
to judge him there
because he broke faith with me.(B)
