Ezekiel 17:17

Context
17:17 Pharaoh with his great army and mighty horde will not help 1  him in battle, when siege ramps are erected and siege-walls are built to kill many people.

Ezekiel 26:17

Context
26:17 They will sing this lament over you: 2 

“‘How you have perished – you have vanished 3  from the seas,

O renowned city, once mighty in the sea,

she and her inhabitants, who spread their terror! 4 

Ezekiel 32:12

Context

32:12 By the swords of the mighty warriors I will cause your hordes to fall –

all of them are the most terrifying among the nations.

They will devastate the pride of Egypt,

and all its hordes will be destroyed.

1 tn Heb “deal with” or “work with.”

2 tn Heb “and they will lift up over you a lament and they will say to you.”

3 tn Heb “O inhabitant.” The translation follows the LXX and understands a different Hebrew verb, meaning “cease,” behind the consonantal text. See L. C. Allen, Ezekiel [WBC], 2:72, and D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:43.

4 tn Heb “she and her inhabitants who placed their terror to all her inhabitants.” The relationship of the final prepositional phrase to what precedes is unclear. The preposition probably has a specifying function here, drawing attention to Tyre’s inhabitants as the source of the terror mentioned prior to this. In this case, one might paraphrase verse 17b: “she and her inhabitants, who spread their terror; yes, her inhabitants (were the source of this terror).”
