Ezekiel 17:18-20
New English Translation
18 He despised the oath by breaking the covenant. Take note[a]—he gave his promise[b] and did all these things. He will not escape!
19 “‘Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: As surely as I live, I will certainly repay him[c] for despising my oath and breaking my covenant! 20 I will throw my net over him and he will be caught in my snare; I will bring him to Babylon and judge him there because of the unfaithfulness he committed against me.
