The LORD’s word to ask the rebellious house whether they know what these things mean

이 비유를 깨닫지 못하겠느냐고 패역한 족속에게 물으라는 여호와의 말씀

Ezekiel 17:11–21: moreover the LORD’s word comes to the speaker (“I”), saying, “Say now to the rebellious house, ‘Don’t you know what these things mean?’ Tell them, ‘Behold, the king of Babylon came to Jerusalem, and took its king, and its princes, and brought them to him to Babylon. He took one of the royal offspring, and made a covenant with him. He also brought him under an oath, and took away the mighty of the land, that the kingdom might be brought low, that it might not lift itself up, but that by keeping his covenant it might stand. But he rebelled against him in sending his ambassadors into Egypt, that they might give him horses and many people. Will he prosper? Will he who does such things escape? Will he break the covenant, and still escape? As I live,’ says the Lord GOD, ‘surely in the place where the king dwells who made him king, whose oath he despised, and whose covenant he broke, even with him in the middle of Babylon he will die. Pharaoh with his mighty army and great company won’t help him in the war, when they cast up mounds and build forts to cut off many persons. For he has despised the oath by breaking the covenant; and behold, he had given his hand, and yet has done all these things. He won’t escape. Therefore the Lord GOD says: ‘As I live, I will surely bring on his own head my oath that he has despised and my covenant that he has broken. I will spread my net on him, and he will be taken in my snare. I will bring him to Babylon, and will enter into judgment with him there for his trespass that he has trespassed against me. All his fugitives in all his bands will fall by the sword, and those who remain will be scattered toward every wind. Then you will know that I, the LORD, have spoken it.’” Neither edition closes the LORD’s words at the end of 17:21. Neither edition names the king of 17:12 or the one of the royal offspring of 17:13. The Korean Revised Version reads 사자 (messengers) at 17:15, where WEB reads “ambassadors”; at 17:16 it reads 바벨론 왕이 그를 왕으로 세웠거늘 (the king of Babylon made him king), where WEB reads “the king … who made him king”; it opens 17:17 with 대적이 토성을 쌓으며 운제를 세우고 (the enemy casts up mounds and sets up scaling ladders), where WEB opens with Pharaoh and reads “they cast up mounds and build forts”; and at 17:19 it reads 내가 그 죄를 그 머리에 돌리되 (turning his sin on his own head), where WEB reads “I will surely bring on his own head my oath that he has despised and my covenant that he has broken”.

    11Moreover the LORD’s word came to me, saying,

    12“Say now to the rebellious house, ‘Don’t you know what these things mean?’ Tell them, ‘Behold, the king of Babylon came to Jerusalem, and took its king, and its princes, and brought them to him to Babylon.

    13He took one of the royal offspring, and made a covenant with him. He also brought him under an oath, and took away the mighty of the land,

    14that the kingdom might be brought low, that it might not lift itself up, but that by keeping his covenant it might stand.

    15But he rebelled against him in sending his ambassadors into Egypt, that they might give him horses and many people. Will he prosper? Will he who does such things escape? Will he break the covenant, and still escape?

    16“‘As I live,’ says the Lord GOD, ‘surely in the place where the king dwells who made him king, whose oath he despised, and whose covenant he broke, even with him in the middle of Babylon he will die.

    17Pharaoh with his mighty army and great company won’t help him in the war, when they cast up mounds and build forts to cut off many persons.

    18For he has despised the oath by breaking the covenant; and behold, he had given his hand, and yet has done all these things. He won’t escape.

    19“Therefore the Lord GOD says: ‘As I live, I will surely bring on his own head my oath that he has despised and my covenant that he has broken.

    20I will spread my net on him, and he will be taken in my snare. I will bring him to Babylon, and will enter into judgment with him there for his trespass that he has trespassed against me.

    21All his fugitives in all his bands will fall by the sword, and those who remain will be scattered toward every wind. Then you will know that I, the LORD, have spoken it.’
