As I live: see Ezekiel 16:48. Mine oath; made in my name, and of which I am both witness and avenger. Hath despised: see Ezekiel 16:59, Ezekiel 17:18. I will recompense; I will punish, as it deserveth, and it shall appear by the punishment that my hand doth execute it. Upon his own head; it is probable some courtiers might advise to it, but this will not excuse Zedekiah, his perjury was his own act; and on his own head, as I charge, so I will punish it.
