Pero los hombres justos los juzgarán en el juicio de las adúlteras y en el juicio de las mujeres que derraman sangre, por ser ellas adúlteras y haber sangre en sus manos.
Por tanto, hombres justos las juzgarán por la ley de las adúlteras, y por la ley de las que derraman sangre: porque son adúlteras, y sangre hay en sus manos.
Por tanto, hombres justos las juzgarán por la ley de las adúlteras, y por la ley de las que derraman sangre; porque son adúlteras, y hay sangre en sus manos.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the righteous men,.... Some understand this of the prophets, who were really righteous men; and foretold the righteous judgments of God that should come upon the idolatrous Jews, which was a judging them: others, of righteous men in general, who will one and all agree that persons guilty of such crimes ought to suffer the punishment adequate to them, and usually inflicted on such; but rather the Babylonians are here meant; who, though not righteous in themselves, or truly so, yet were so in comparison of the wicked Jews, who had a divine revelation, and knew better than to commit such idolatries; whereas these were Gentiles that knew not God, nor his will. So the Targum,
"and righteous men in respect (or comparison) of them;''
that is, of Israel and Judah; and they may be also called so, because they were the executioners of justice, the instruments of inflicting God's righteous judgments on the Jews; and, among other things, for their perfidy and treachery to them; so that they would appear just in the eyes of other nations for treating them as they did:
they shall judge them after the manner of adulteresses, and after the manner of women that shed blood; that is, according to the law concerning such persons; and shall condemn them to suffer the punishment denounced on such, and shall execute it on them:
because they are adulteresses, the blood is in their hands; are guilty, not only of corporeal uncleanness, but of spiritual adultery; that is, idolatry; and of the murder of their prophets and righteous men, and even of their own children sacrificed to idols; than which nothing can be more unnatural and barbarous for women to do.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The judgment to be executed by the hands of their allies.
Ezekiel 23:45
The righteous men - Or, righteous men. The allies are so called as the instruments of God’s righteous judgments.
Ezekiel 23:48
To cease - Because they are stricken and consumed. Compare marginal reference.
All women - i. e., all countries.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezekiel 23:45. And the righteous men — אנשים צדיקים anashim tsaddikim. The Chaldeans, thus called because they are appointed by God to execute judgment on these criminals.
