Ezekiel 32:7-32

7When I extinguish youH3518, I will coverH3680 the heavensH8064 and darkenH6937 their starsH3556. I will coverH3680 the sunH8121 with a cloudH6051, and the moonH3394 will notH3808 give its lightH215 H216.8AllH3605 the shiningH3974 lightsH216 in the heavensH8064 I will darkenH6937 over youH5921, and I will bringH5414 darknessH2822 uponH5921 your landH776,’ declaresH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.9‘I will troubleH3707 the heartsH3820 of manyH7227 peoplesH5971, when I bring aboutH935 your destructionH7667 among the nationsH1471, inH5921 countriesH776 1 you do notH3808 knowH3045.10I will cause manyH7227 peoplesH5971 to be appalledH8074 over youH5921, and their kingsH4428 will shudder in horrorH8175 H8178 because of youH5921 when I brandishH5774 My swordH2719 beforeH5921 themH6440. On the dayH3117 of your downfallH4658 each of themH376 will trembleH2729 every momentH7281 for his lifeH5315.’

11ForH3588 this is whatH3541 the LordH136 GODH3069 saysH559:

‘The swordH2719 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894will come against youH935!12I will make your hordesH1995 fallH5307by the swordsH2719 of the mightyH1368,the most ruthlessH6184 of allH3605 nationsH1471.They will ravageH7703 the prideH1347 of EgyptH4714and allH3605 her multitudesH1995 will be destroyedH8045.13I will slaughterH6 allH3605 her cattleH929besideH5921 the abundantH7227 watersH4325.NoH3808 humanH120 footH7272 will muddy themH1804 againH5750,and noH3808 cattleH929 hoovesH6541 will disturb themH1804.14ThenH227 I will let her watersH4325 settleH8257and will make her riversH5104 flowH1980 like oilH8081,’declaresH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.15‘When I makeH5414 the landH776 of EgyptH4714 a desolationH8077and emptyH8074 it of all that filled itH4393,when I strike downH5221 allH3605 who liveH3427 there,then they will knowH3045 thatH3588 IH589 am the LORDH3068.’

16ThisH1931 is the lamentH6969 they will chant for herH7015; the daughtersH1323 of the nationsH1471 will chant itH6969 . OverH5921 EgyptH4714 H5921 and allH3605 her multitudesH1995 they will chant itH6969 , declaresH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.”
