Ezekiel 7:9

9 et non parcet oculus meus neque miserebor sed vias tuas inponam tibi et abominationes tuae in medio tui erunt et scietis quia ego sum Dominus percutiens

Ezekiel 7:9 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 7:9

And mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity
This verse is the same with ( Ezekiel 7:4 ) ; only instead of "I will recompense thy ways upon thee", here it is, I will recompense thee according to thy ways upon thee and thine
abominations [that] are in the midst of thee;
which have both the same sense, showing the equity and justice of the divine proceedings: and to the clause, it is added, and ye shall know that I [am] the Lord that smiteth;
with the rod of his anger, inflicts punishment for sin. The Syriac version is, "that smiteth them"; the Jews, by suffering them to be carried captive: and so the Targum,

``I am the Lord that bringeth upon you a smiting,''
or the blow; the sense is, that when it came, they should be sensible that it was the Lord's doing. (See Gill on Ezekiel 7:4).

7 venit contractio super te qui habitas in terra venit tempus prope est dies occisionis et non gloriae montium
8 nunc de propinquo effundam iram meam super te et conpleam furorem meum in te et iudicabo te iuxta vias tuas et inponam tibi omnia scelera tua
9 et non parcet oculus meus neque miserebor sed vias tuas inponam tibi et abominationes tuae in medio tui erunt et scietis quia ego sum Dominus percutiens

11 iniquitas surrexit in virga impietatis non ex eis et non ex populo neque ex sonitu eorum et non erit requies in eis
