Ezekiel 17:17LXX
Orthodox Bible · LXX · Verse 17 of 24
"Neither shall Pharaoh with mighty army and great company make for him in the war, by casting up mounts, and building forts, to cut off many persons:"
In context
15But he rebelled against him in sending his ambassadors into Egypt, that they might give him horses and much people. Shall he prosper? shall he escape that doeth such ? or shall he break the covenant, and be delivered?
16I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely in the place the king that made him king, whose oath he despised, and whose covenant he brake, with him in the midst of Babylon he shall die.
17Neither shall Pharaoh with mighty army and great company make for him in the war, by casting up mounts, and building forts, to cut off many persons:
18Seeing he despised the oath by breaking the covenant, when, lo, he had given his hand, and hath done all these , he shall not escape.
19Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; I live, surely mine oath that he hath despised, and my covenant that he hath broken, even it will I recompense upon his own head.
