Ezekiel 17:14-16

New Life Version

¹⁴ so that the nation would be under his power and not become strong again. It could only last by keeping his agreement. ¹⁵ But the king of Judah turned against him by sending his men to Egypt to get horses and a large army for him. Will it go well for him? Can he get away with that? Can he break the agreement and not be punished? ¹⁶ As I live,’ says the Lord God, ‘he will die in the land of the king who put him on the throne, whose promise he hated, and whose agreement he broke. He will die in Babylon.
