Exegesis
The universal pronouncement begins with the emphatic repetition ish ish {אִישׁ אִישׁ | ʾîš ʾîš} ‘any man, each one’ followed by a construct phrase mi-beit Yisraʾel {מִבֵּ֣ית יִשְׂרָאֵל | mi-bêyt Yiś-rā-ʾêl} ‘from the house of Israel’ and its parallel u-me-ha-ger asher-yā-gur be-Yisraʾel {וּמֵהַגֵּר אֲשֶׁר־יָג֣וּר בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל | u-me-ha-gêr ʾă-šer-yā-gûr bə-Yiś-rā-ʾêl} ‘and from the sojourner who sojourns in Israel.’
In context — Ezekiel 14:7
For any man of the house of Israel or any sojourner dwelling in Israel who separates himself from following Me and brings up his idols into his heart and places the stumbling block of his iniquity before his face and comes to the prophet to inquire of Me for himself, I, the LORD , will answer him Myself.
