Ezekiel 32:5-7
New English Translation

5 I will put your flesh on the mountains,
and fill the valleys with your maggot-infested carcass.[a]
6 I will drench the land with the flow
of your blood up to the mountains,
and the ravines will be full of your blood.[b]
7 When I extinguish you, I will cover the sky;
I will darken its stars.
I will cover the sun with a cloud,
and the moon will not shine.[c]

Footnotes

  1. Ezekiel 32:5 tc The Hebrew text is difficult here, apparently meaning “your height.” Following Symmachus and the Syriac, it is preferable to emend the text to read “your maggots.” See D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 2:203.
  2. Ezekiel 32:6 tn Heb “from you.”
  3. Ezekiel 32:7 tn Heb “will not shine its light.” For similar features of cosmic eschatology, see Joel 2:10; 3:15; Amos 5:18-20; Zeph 1:5.
