Ezechiele 23:10
To many Protestant and Evangelical Italians, the Bibles translated by Giovanni Diodati are an important part of their history. Diodati’s first Italian Bible edition was printed in 1607, and his second in 1641. He died in 1649. Throughout the 1800s two editions of Diodati’s text were printed by the British Foreign Bible Society. This is the more recent 1894 edition, translated by Claudiana.

Shield
'A shield' signifies defense which is trusted against evils and falsities. In respect to the Lord, it signifies defense, and in respect to people, confidence in the Lord's protection. This is because it was a protection for the breast, and 'the breast' signifies good and truth, good because of the heart in it, and truth because of the lungs. In an opposite sense, 'shield' denotes evils and falsities which are used to wage combat, and is used as a defense in Jeremiah 46:3-4 among other passages.
