Ezekiel 6:9 Explained in Context
Use this verse as a doorway into the larger passage—not as an isolated saying.
Verse 9. 9And they that escape of you shall remember me among the nations whither they shall be carried captives, because I am broken with their whorish heart, which hath departed from me, and with their eyes, which go a whoring after their idols: and they shall lothe themselves for the evils which they have committed in all their abominations.

- Ezekiel 6:8–10
Read Ezekiel 6:9 with 6:8–10.

The complete unit establishes: Some escape among the nations, remember the LORD, recognize the grief of covenant betrayal, and know the announced disaster was not empty speech.
