Son of man
"Son of a human being" or "Son of humanity." God emphasizes that Ezekiel is only a human being. God is eternal and powerful. See Ezekiel 2:1.
bring them down—her and the daughters of majestic nations
God is perhaps telling Ezekiel to cause this to happen by giving a prophetic command.
the daughters of majestic nations
"the people of powerful nations" or "other powerful nations"
the lowest earth
"make them die"
with those who have gone down to the pit
"with everyone else who has died and gone into the ground"
the pit
"The pit" refers to the grave; because the grave was thought to be the entrance to the world of the dead, the pit also represents that world. See Ezekiel 31:16.
