Ezekiel 30
American Standard Version
1The wordH1697 of Jehovah came again unto me, sayingH559, 2SonH1121 of manH120, prophesyH5012, and sayH559, ThusH3541 saith the LordH136 Jehovah: WailH3213 ye, Alas for the dayH3117! 3For the dayH3117 is near, even the dayH3117 of Jehovah is near; it shall beH1961 a dayH3117 of cloudsH6051, a timeH6256 of the nationsH1471. 4And a swordH2719 shall comeH935 upon EgyptH4714, and anguishH2479 shall beH1961 in Ethiopia, when the slainH2491 shall fallH5307 in EgyptH4714; and they shall takeH3947 awayH3947 her multitudeH1995, and her foundationsH3247 shall beH1961 brokenH2040 downH5307. 5Ethiopia, and PutH6316, and LudH3865, and all the mingled peopleH1121, and Cub, and the children of the landH776 that is in league, shall fallH5307 with them by the swordH2719.
6ThusH3541 saith Jehovah: They also that uphold EgyptH4714 shall fallH5307; and the prideH1347 of her power shall comeH3381 down: from the tower of Seveneh shall they fallH5307 in it by the swordH2719, saith the Lord Jehovah. 7And they shall beH1961 desolateH8074 in the midstH8432 of the countries that are desolateH8074; and her citiesH5892 shall beH1961 in the midstH8432 of the citiesH5892 that are wasted. 8And they shall knowH3045 that I am Jehovah, when I have setH5414 a fireH784 in EgyptH4714, and all her helpersH5826 are destroyed. 9In that dayH3117 shall messengersH4397 goH3318 forthH3318 from before me in shipsH6716 to make the careless Ethiopians afraid; and there shall beH1961 anguishH2479 upon them, as in the dayH3117 of EgyptH4714; for, lo, it cometh.
10ThusH3541 saith the LordH136 Jehovah: I will also make the multitudeH1995 of EgyptH4714 to ceaseH7673, by the handH3027 of Nebuchadrezzar kingH4428 of BabylonH894. 11He and his peopleH5971 with him, the terrible of the nationsH1471, shall be broughtH935 in to destroyH7843 the landH776; and they shall draw their swordsH2719 against EgyptH4714, and fillH4390 the landH776 with the slainH2491. 12And I will makeH5414 the riversH2975 dryH2724, and will sellH4376 the landH776 into the handH3027 of evilH7451 men; and I will makeH5414 the landH776 desolateH8074, and all that is therein, by the handH3027 of strangersH2114: I, Jehovah, have spokenH1696 it.
13ThusH3541 saith the LordH136 Jehovah: I will also destroyH6 the idolsH1544, and I will cause the images to ceaseH7673 from MemphisH5297; and there shall beH1961 no more a princeH5387 from the landH776 of EgyptH4714: and I will putH5414 a fearH3374 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714. 14And I will makeH5414 PathrosH6624 desolateH8074, and will setH5414 a fireH784 in ZoanH6814, and will execute judgmentsH8201 upon No. 15And I will pourH8210 my wrathH2534 upon Sin, the strongholdH4581 of EgyptH4714; and I will cutH3772 off the multitudeH1995 of No. 16And I will setH5414 a fireH784 in EgyptH4714: Sin shall beH1961 in great anguishH2342, and No shall beH1961 brokenH1234 up; and MemphisH5297 shall have adversaries in the day-time. 17The youngH970 menH970 of Aven and of Pi-beseth shall fallH5307 by the swordH2719; and these cities shall go into captivityH7628. 18At Tehaphnehes also the dayH3117 shall withdraw itself, when I shall breakH7665 there the yokes of EgyptH4714, and the prideH1347 of her power shall ceaseH7673 in her: as for her, a cloudH6051 shall coverH3680 her, and her daughtersH1323 shall go into captivityH7628. 19Thus will I execute judgmentsH8201 upon EgyptH4714; and they shall knowH3045 that I am Jehovah.
20And it came to pass in the eleventh yearH8141, in the firstH7223monthH2320, in the seventhdayof the monthH2320, that the wordH1697 of Jehovah came unto me, sayingH559, 21SonH1121 of manH120, I have brokenH7665 the armH2220 of PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714; and, lo, it hath not been boundH2280 up, to apply healing medicines, to putH5414 a bandage to bindH2280 it, that it be strongH2388 to holdH2388 the swordH2719. 22ThereforeH3651 thusH3541 saith the LordH136 Jehovah: Behold, I am against PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, and will breakH7665 his armsH2220, the strongH2389 armH2220, and that which was brokenH7665; and I will cause the swordH2719 to fallH5307 out of his handH3027. 23And I will scatterH2219 the Egyptians among the nationsH1471, and will disperseH2219 them through the countries. 24And I will strengthenH2388 the armsH2220 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and putH5414 my swordH2719 in his handH3027: but I will breakH7665 the armsH2220 of PharaohH6547, and he shall groanH5008 before him with the groanings of a deadly woundedH2491 man. 25And I will holdH2388 up the armsH2220 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894; and the armsH2220 of PharaohH6547 shall fallH5307 downH5307; and they shall knowH3045 that I am Jehovah, when I shall putH5414 my swordH2719 into the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and he shall stretchH5186 it out upon the landH776 of EgyptH4714. 26And I will scatterH2219 the Egyptians among the nationsH1471, and disperseH2219 them through the countries; and they shall knowH3045 that I am Jehovah.
