Ezekiel 23:22-24

Contemporary English Version

The Lord Will Punish Oholibah

²² The Lord God said:

Oholibah,^[a] though you no longer want to be around your lovers, they will surround you like enemies, when I turn them against you. ²³ I will gather all the handsome young officials and the high-ranking cavalry officers from Babylonia and Assyria, as well as from the Chaldean tribes of Pekod, Shoa, and Koa. ²⁴ Their large armies will come from the north^[b] with chariots and wagons carrying weapons. They will wear shields and helmets and will surround you, and I will let them judge and sentence you according to their own laws.
