Exegesis
The conjunction yaan {יַעַן | ya-ʿan} ‘because’ introduces the reason clause dabberkhem {דַּבֶּרְכֶם | dab-běr-ḵem} ‘you spoke’ shav {שָׁוְא | šāv} ‘falsehood’ and va-chazitem {וַחֲזִיתֶם | wa-ḥă-zî-tēm} ‘and you have seen’ kazav {כָּזָב | kā-zāḇ} ‘lies’.
In context — Ezekiel 13:8
Therefore thus says the Lord GOD : “Because you have spoken falsehood and have seen lies , therefore behold, I am against you,” declares the Lord GOD.
