Ezekiel 39:24

According to their uncleanness, that of their idolatry, of their rebellion against the God of the covenant, and according to their transgressions, the wickedness of their perfidious acts, have I done unto them, treating them as they deserved, and hid My face from them. It was not Israel's helplessness that delivered Israel into the hands of the enemies, but the judgment of God upon a disloyal people. The enemies, therefore, were not to take the credit for the present situation for themselves; for God had brought it about in order to carry out his plans regarding those who belonged to His people in truth.
