Ezekiel 17:15-17
Lexham English Bible
15 But he rebelled against him by sending his messengers to Egypt to give to him horses and a large army. Will he succeed? Will he escape doing these things, and can he break the covenant and escape? 16 As I live,’[a] declares[b] the Lord Yahweh, ‘surely[c] in the place of the king who made[d] him king, who despised his oath and who broke his covenant with him—in the midst of Babylon he will die. 17 And not with a great army and with a great crowd will Pharaoh work[e] with him in the war, at the pouring out of a siege ramp and the building of siege works to destroy many lives.
