Exegesis
The relative clause with asher {אֲשֶׁר | ʾă-šer} ‘who’ and ba {בָּא | bāʾ} ‘has come’ modifies yomam {יוֹמָם | yō-mām} ‘his day’, followed by b’et {בְּעֵת | bə-ʿēt} ‘at the time of’ combined with avon {עֲוֹן | ʿā-vōn} ‘iniquity’ and keitz {קֵץ | kēts} ‘end’, marking the eschatological culmination of guilt. The layering of infinitives, prepositions, and construct relations underscores a progression from deception to divine judgment.
In context — Ezekiel 21:29
While they see vanity for you and practice deceitful divination for you, to place you on the necks of the slain of the wicked whose day has come when iniquity reaches its end.
