Ezekiel 7:6

An end is come, the end is come: it watcheth for thee; behold, it is come.

Ver. 6. An end is come, the end is come.] Still the prophet ringeth this doleful knell in their ears, whom sin and Satan had cast into such a dead lethargy, that they could not easily be aroused. Battologia est, sed necessaria verborum redundantia, saith Pintus.

It watcheth for thee.] Which hitherto lay at the door, Gen 4:7 sleeping dog sleep, as we say. In the Hebrew there is an elegant alliteration between hakets, "an end," and hekits, "watcheth." See 2 Peter 3:3 .
