I will turn you over to them for punishment,(B) and they will punish you according to their standards.

  1. Ezekiel 23:24 The meaning of the Hebrew for this word is uncertain.

The shields of the soldiers are red;
    the warriors are clad in scarlet.(A)
The metal on the chariots flashes
    on the day they are made ready;
    the spears of juniper are brandished.[a]
The chariots(B) storm through the streets,
    rushing back and forth through the squares.
They look like flaming torches;
    they dart about like lightning.
