Matthew Poole and continuators on Ezekiel 17:20

20 And I will spread my net upon him, and he shall be taken in my snare, and I will bring him to Babylon, and will plead with him there for his trespass that he hath trespassed against me.

Vide chap. 12. ver. 13. where the former part of this verse is word for word.

Or be judged with him, i. e. The Heathen shall both see what I do against this man, they shall consider why I do so, and be judge whether I do more than this perjur'd King deserves, or else, I will punish him with continued punishments from my own hand, or by the hand of Neb[illegible: 1 letter]chadnezzar, suitable to the greatness of his trespass against me.

Falsehoods to men in breaking Oaths and Covenants, are in a high degree trespasses against God.
