¹ tn Heb “proverbs.”

² sn The expression “breaking the arm” indicates the removal of power (Ps 10:15; 37:17; Job 38:15; Jer 48:25).

³ sn This may refer to the event recorded in Jer 37:5.

⁴ tn Heb “as people come.” Apparently this is an idiom indicating that they come in crowds. See D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:264.

⁵ tn The word “as” is supplied in the translation.

⁶ tn Heb “do.”

⁷ tn Heb “They do lust with their mouths.”

⁸ tn Heb “goes after.”
