Ezekiel 29:14-16

Context
29:14 I will restore the fortunes of Egypt, and will bring them back 1  to the land of Pathros, to the land of their origin; there they will be an insignificant kingdom. 29:15 It will be the most insignificant of the kingdoms; it will never again exalt itself over the nations. I will make them so small that they will not rule over the nations. 29:16 It will never again be Israel’s source of confidence, but a reminder of how they sinned by turning to Egypt for help. 2  Then they will know that I am the sovereign Lord.’”

1 tc Thus the Masoretic Text. The LXX, Syriac, and Vulgate translate as though the Hebrew read “cause to inhabit.”

2 tn Heb “reminding of iniquity when they turned after them.”
