Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
(Occurrence 0) what is this proverb that you have in the land of Israel that says, ‘The days are prolonged, and every vision fails’?
(Some words not found in UHB: son_of humankind what the,proverb the=this to/for=you_all on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in land_of Yisrael to=say prolonged the=days and,comes_to_nothing all/each/any/every vision )
Yahweh asks this rhetorical question to remind Ezekiel something he already knows. The question is a mild rebuke for the people who use the proverb. Alternate translation: “the people in the land of Israel have this proverb that says, ‘The days are prolonged, and every vision fails.’”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
(Occurrence 0) The days are prolonged
(Some words not found in UHB: son_of humankind what the,proverb the=this to/for=you_all on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in land_of Yisrael to=say prolonged the=days and,comes_to_nothing all/each/any/every vision )
This idiom means that many days have passed. Alternate translation: “Many days have passed” or “Time has gone by”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
(Occurrence 0) every vision fails
(Some words not found in UHB: son_of humankind what the,proverb the=this to/for=you_all on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in land_of Yisrael to=say prolonged the=days and,comes_to_nothing all/each/any/every vision )
This means that the visions that the prophets receive and communicate to the people fail to happen. Alternate translation: “every prophetic vision fails to happen”
12:22 Ezekiel’s hearers were so reluctant to open their ears to the message of the prophets that they had coined a proverb to express their skepticism.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
