Ezekiel 30:1-12

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.
