- The word of the LORD came again to me saying,
- "Son of man, prophesy and say, 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "Wail, 'Alas for the day!'
- "For the day is near, Even the day of the LORD is near; It will be a day of clouds, A time of doom for the nations.
- "A sword will come upon Egypt, And anguish will be in Ethiopia; When the slain fall in Egypt, They take away her wealth, And her foundations are torn down.
- "Ethiopia, Put, Lud, all Arabia, Libya and the people of the land that is in league will fall with them by the sword."
|
- The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
- Son of man, prophesy and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Howl ye, Woe worth the day!
- For the day is near, even the day of the LORD is near, a cloudy day; it shall be the time of the heathen.
- And the sword shall come upon Egypt, and great pain shall be in Ethiopia, when the slain shall fall in Egypt, and they shall take away her multitude, and her foundations shall be broken down.
- Ethiopia, and Libya, and Lydia, and all the mingled people, and Chub, and the men of the land that is in league, shall fall with them by the sword.
|
- 'Thus says the LORD, "Indeed, those who support Egypt will fall And the pride of her power will come down; From Migdol to Syene They will fall within her by the sword," Declares the Lord GOD.
- "They will be desolate In the midst of the desolated lands; And her cities will be In the midst of the devastated cities.
- "And they will know that I am the LORD, When I set a fire in Egypt And all her helpers are broken.
- "On that day messengers will go forth from Me in ships to frighten secure Ethiopia; and anguish will be on them as on the day of Egypt; for behold, it comes!"
- 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "I will also make the hordes of Egypt cease By the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.
|
- Thus saith the LORD; They also that uphold Egypt shall fall; and the pride of her power shall come down: from the tower of Syene shall they fall in it by the sword, saith the Lord GOD.
- And they shall be desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities shall be in the midst of the cities that are wasted.
- And they shall know that I am the LORD, when I have set a fire in Egypt, and when all her helpers shall be destroyed.
- In that day shall messengers go forth from me in ships to make the careless Ethiopians afraid, and great pain shall come upon them, as in the day of Egypt: for, lo, it cometh.
- Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will also make the multitude of Egypt to cease by the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon.
|
- "He and his people with him, The most ruthless of the nations, Will be brought in to destroy the land; And they will draw their swords against Egypt And fill the land with the slain.
- "Moreover, I will make the Nile canals dry And sell the land into the hands of evil men. And I will make the land desolate And all that is in it, By the hand of strangers; I the LORD have spoken."
- 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "I will also destroy the idols And make the images cease from Memphis. And there will no longer be a prince in the land of Egypt; And I will put fear in the land of Egypt.
- "I will make Pathros desolate, Set a fire in Zoan And execute judgments on Thebes.
- "I will pour out My wrath on Sin, The stronghold of Egypt; I will also cut off the hordes of Thebes.
|
- He and his people with him, the terrible of the nations, shall be brought to destroy the land: and they shall draw their swords against Egypt, and fill the land with the slain.
- And I will make the rivers dry, and sell the land into the hand of the wicked: and I will make the land waste, and all that is therein, by the hand of strangers: I the LORD have spoken it.
- Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will also destroy the idols, and I will cause their images to cease out of Noph; and there shall be no more a prince of the land of Egypt: and I will put a fear in the land of Egypt.
- And I will make Pathros desolate, and will set fire in Zoan, and will execute judgments in No.
- And I will pour my fury upon Sin, the strength of Egypt; and I will cut off the multitude of No.
|
- "I will set a fire in Egypt; Sin will writhe in anguish, Thebes will be breached And Memphis will have distresses daily.
- "The young men of On and of Pi-beseth Will fall by the sword, And the women will go into captivity.
- "In Tehaphnehes the day will be dark When I break there the yoke bars of Egypt. Then the pride of her power will cease in her; A cloud will cover her, And her daughters will go into captivity.
- "Thus I will execute judgments on Egypt, And they will know that I am the LORD."'"
- In the eleventh year, in the first month, on the seventh of the month, the word of the LORD came to me saying,
|
- And I will set fire in Egypt: Sin shall have great pain, and No shall be rent asunder, and Noph shall have distresses daily.
- The young men of Aven and of Pibeseth shall fall by the sword: and these cities shall go into captivity.
- At Tehaphnehes also the day shall be darkened, when I shall break there the yokes of Egypt: and the pomp of her strength shall cease in her: as for her, a cloud shall cover her, and her daughters shall go into captivity.
- Thus will I execute judgments in Egypt: and they shall know that I am the LORD.
- And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first month, in the seventh day of the month, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
|
- "Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and, behold, it has not been bound up for healing or wrapped with a bandage, that it may be strong to hold the sword.
- "Therefore thus says the Lord GOD, 'Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt and will break his arms, both the strong and the broken; and I will make the sword fall from his hand.
- 'I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations and disperse them among the lands.
- 'For I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon and put My sword in his hand; and I will break the arms of Pharaoh, so that he will groan before him with the groanings of a wounded man.
- 'Thus I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, but the arms of Pharaoh will fall. Then they will know that I am the LORD, when I put My sword into the hand of the king of Babylon and he stretches it out against the land of Egypt.
|
- Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and, lo, it shall not be bound up to be healed, to put a roller to bind it, to make it strong to hold the sword.
- Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and will break his arms, the strong, and that which was broken; and I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand.
- And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
- And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and put my sword in his hand: but I will break Pharaoh's arms, and he shall groan before him with the groanings of a deadly wounded man.
- But I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and the arms of Pharaoh shall fall down; and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall put my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall stretch it out upon the land of Egypt.
|
- 'When I scatter the Egyptians among the nations and disperse them among the lands, then they will know that I am the LORD.'"
|
- And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and disperse them among the countries; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
