Context of Ezekiel 32:10
8I will darken all the shining lights in the heavens over you, and will bring darkness on your land. This is the declaration of the Lord God. 9“‘I will trouble the hearts of many peoples, when I bring about your destruction among the nations, in countries you have not known. I will cause many peoples to be appalled at you, and their kings will shudder with fear because of you when I brandish my sword in front of them. On the day of your downfall each of them will tremble every moment for his life. 11“‘For this is what the Lord God says: The sword of Babylon’s king will come against you! 12I will make your hordes fall by the swords of warriors, all of them ruthless men from the nations. They will ravage Egypt’s pride, and all its hordes will be destroyed.
