Ezekiel 33:26 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Ye stand upon your sword— You stand in your highway, or the corners of the streets, and commit your abominations. Houbigant. This expression seems to refer to their public and open profession of idolatry. Those who understand the expression as translated in our version, suppose the meaning to be, "You stand like soldiers upon guard, and under arms; you only seek for occasion to commit acts of hostility and violence."
