Ezekiel 17:12-14

Revised Geneva Translation

¹² “Now say to this rebellious House, ‘Do you not know what these things mean?’ Tell them, ‘Behold, the king of Babel has come to Jerusalem, and has taken its king and its princes and led them with him to Babel,

¹³ ‘and has taken the king’s seed and made a covenant with him and has taken an oath from him. He has also taken the princes of the land,

¹⁴ ‘so that the kingdom might be in subjection, and not lift itself up, keeping their covenant so that it might stand.
