And it shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel, which bringeth their iniquity to remembrance, when they shall look after them: but they shall know that I am the Lord GOD.
It shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel - Egypt, when restored, shall be so circumscribed in power that it shall be no longer an object of confidence to Israel, as formerly; e.g., as when, relying on it, Israel broke faith with Nebuchadnezzar (Ezekiel 17:13; Ezekiel 17:15-16).
Which bringeth their iniquity to remembrance, when they shall look after them - rather, 'while they (the Israelites) look to (or, turn after) them' (Henderson). Israel's looking to Egypt, rather than to God, causeth their iniquity (that is, unfaithfulness to the covenant) to be remembered by God.
