Exegesis
The construct ne‘um {נְאֻם | nə-ʾum} ‘utterance’ leads into the prophetic formula attributed to the compound divine name Adonai YHWH {אֲדֹנָי יְהוִֽה | ʾă-ḏō-nāy Yəhōwāh}, highlighting Lordship and covenant authority.
In context — Ezekiel 15:8
And I will make the land desolate because they have committed unfaithfulness , declares the Lord GOD .
