Ezekiel 17:14

that the kingdom might be base, that it might not lift itself up, but that by keeping his covenant it might stand.

so that the kingdom would be humble and not exalt itself but would keep his covenant in order to endure.

That the kingdom might be base, that it might not lift itself up, but that by keeping of his covenant it might stand.

so that the kingdom would be humbled, not exalting itself, but keeping his covenant so that it might continue.

so that the kingdom would be brought low, unable to rise again, surviving only by keeping his treaty.

that the kingdom might be brought low and not lift itself up, but that by keeping his covenant it might stand.

so Israel would not become strong again and revolt. Only by keeping her treaty with Babylon could Israel survive.

that the kingdom might be brought low, that it might not lift itself up, but that by keeping his covenant it might stand.
