30 " 'Let the sword return to its sheath. In the place where you were created, in the land of your ancestry, I will judge you.
30 Shall I cause it to return into his sheath? I will judge thee in the place where thou wast created, in the land of thy nativity.
30 Return it to its sheath. In the place where you were created, in the land of your origin, I will judge you.
30 Return the sword to the sheath! I'll judge you in your home country, in the land where you grew up.
30 'Return it to its sheath. I will judge you In the place where you were created, In the land of your nativity.
30 "Now return the sword to its sheath, for in your own country, the land of your birth, I will pass judgment upon you.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Ezekiel 21:30
Commentary on Ezekiel 21:28-32
(Read Ezekiel 21:28-32)
The diviners of the Ammonites made false prophecies of victory. They would never recover their power, but in time would be wholly forgotten. Let us be thankful to be employed as instruments of mercy; let us use our understandings in doing good; and let us stand aloof from men who are only skilful to destroy.
