Ezekiel 17:14 in Context — Ezekiel 17

12 Dize agora à casa rebelde: Por acaso não sabeis o que significam estas coisas? Dize-lhes: Eis que o rei da Babilônia veio a Jerusalém, tomou o teu rei e seus príncipes, e os levou consigo à Babilônia.

13 E tomou [um] da família real, fez pacto com ele, fazendo-lhe prestar juramento; e tomou os poderosos da terra [consigo] ,

14 Para que o reino ficasse humilhado, e não se levantasse; mas podendo continuar a existir se guardasse seu pacto.

15 Porém rebelou-se contra ele, enviando seus mensageiros ao Egito, para que lhe dessem cavalos e muita gente. Por acaso terá sucesso, ou escapará aquele que faz tais coisas? Poderá quebrar o pacto, e [ainda assim] escapar?

16 Vivo eu, diz o Senhor DEUS, que morrerá em meio da Babilônia, no lugar do rei que o fez reinar, cujo juramento desprezou, e cujo pacto quebrou.
