Exegesis
The Hifil wāʾāsîr {וָאָסִ֥יר | wāʾāsîr} “I removed” takes ʾethēn {אֶתְהֶ֖ן | ʾeṯhēn} as its object, linking punishment to the abominable deed, and the causal clause kaʾăšer rāʾîṯî {כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר רָאִֽיתִי | kaʾăšer rāʾîṯî}, “as I saw,” underscores the immediacy of judgment. This structure highlights divine sovereignty and establishes a direct progression from arrogance to removal.
In context — Ezekiel 16:50
And they became haughty and committed abomination before Me . So I removed them as I saw fit.
