Ezekiel 35:10

Because thou hast said, These two nations and these two countries shall be mine, and we will possess it; whereas the LORD was there:

Because thou hast said, Those two nations and these two countries shall be mine, and we will possess it; whereas the Lord was there. So far shall Edom be from being allowed to enter on Israel's vacated inheritance, as he hoped (; ; ; ), that he shall be deprived of his own; and whereas Israel's humiliation was temporary, Edom's shall be perpetual.

The Lord was there - (; ; ; Psalms 132:13). Yahweh claimed Judea as His own, even when the Chaldeans had overthrown the state; they could not remove Him, as they did the idols of pagan lands. The broken sentences express the excited feelings of the prophet at Edom's wicked presumption. The transition from the "two nations and two countries" to "it" marks that the two, Israel and Judah, are regarded as one whole. The last clause, "and Yahweh was there," bursts in, like a flash of lightning, reproving the wicked presumption of Edom's thought.
