Ezekiel 30:1-12

1Again the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 cameH1961 to meH413, sayingH559, 2“SonH1121 of manH120, prophesyH5012 and declareH559 that this is whatH3541 the LordH136 GODH3069 saysH559:

WailH3213, ‘AlasH1929for that dayH3117!’3ForH3588 the dayH3117 is nearH7138,the DayH3117 of the LORDH3068 is nearH7138.It will beH1961 a dayH3117 of cloudsH6051,a timeH6256 of doom for the nationsH1471.1

4A swordH2719 will comeH935 against EgyptH4714 H1961,and there will be anguishH2479 in CushH3568 2when the slainH2491 fallH5307 in EgyptH4714,its wealthH1995 is taken awayH3947,and its foundationsH3247 are torn downH2040.5CushH3568, PutH6316, and LudH3865,3and allH3605 the various peoplesH6154,as well as LibyaH3552 and the menH1121 of the covenantH1285 landH776,will fallH5307 withH854 Egypt by the swordH2719.

6For this is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 saysH559:

The alliesH5564 of EgyptH4714 will fallH5307,and her proudH1347 strengthH5797 will collapseH3381.From MigdolH4024 to SyeneH5482 4they will fallH5307 by the swordH2719 within her,declaresH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.7They will be desolateH8074 amongH8432 desolateH8074 landsH776,and their citiesH5892 will lieH1961 amongH8432 ruinedH2717 citiesH5892.

8Then they will knowH3045 thatH3588 IH589 am the LORDH3068when I setH5414 fireH784 to EgyptH4714and allH3605 her helpersH5826 are shatteredH7665.

9On thatH1931 dayH3117 messengersH4397 will go outH3318 from MeH6440 in shipsH6716 to frightenH2729 CushH3568 out of complacencyH983. AnguishH2479 will comeH1961 upon them on the dayH3117 of Egypt’sH4714 doom.5 ForH3588 it is indeedH2009 comingH935.

10This is whatH3541 the LordH136 GODH3069 saysH559:

I will put an endH7673 to the hordesH1995 of EgyptH4714by the handH3027 of NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894.11HeH1931 and his peopleH5971 with himH854,the most ruthlessH6184 of the nationsH1471,will be brought inH935 to destroyH7843 the landH776.They will drawH7324 their swordsH2719 againstH5921 EgyptH4714and fillH4390 the landH776 with the slainH2491.12I will makeH5414 the streamsH2975 dry upH2724and sellH4376 the landH776 toH3027 the wickedH7451.By the handsH3027 of foreignersH2114 I will bring desolationH8074upon the landH776 and everything in itH4393.IH589, the LORDH3068, have spokenH1696.
