Ezekiel 29:6-16

6And all the inhabitantsH3427 of EgyptH4714 shall knowH3045 that I [am] Jehovah, because they have beenH1961 a staffH4938 of reedH7070 to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478.

7When they took hold of thee by thy handH3709, thou didst give way and rend all their shoulderH3802; and when they leanedH8172 upon thee, thou didst breakH7665, and didst make all their loinsH4975 to tremble.

8ThereforeH3651 thusH3541 saith the LordH136 Jehovah: Behold, I will bringH935 a swordH2719 upon thee, and cutH3772 off manH120 and beast from thee.

9And the landH776 of EgyptH4714 shall beH1961 a desolationH8077 and a wasteH2723: and they shall knowH3045 that I [am] Jehovah, because he saith, The riverH2975 is mine, and I madeH6213 it.

10ThereforeH3651 behold, I am against thee, and against thy riversH2975, and I will makeH5414 the landH776 of EgyptH4714 deserts of wasteness and desolationH8077, from MigdolH4024 to Syene, even unto the borderH1366 of Ethiopia.

11No footH7272 of manH120 shall passH5674 through it, nor shall footH7272 of beast passH5674 through it, nor shall it be inhabitedH3427, fortyH705 yearsH8141.

12And I will makeH5414 the landH776 of EgyptH4714 a desolationH8077 in the midstH8432 of the countries that are desolatedH8074, and her citiesH5892 shall beH1961, in the midstH8432 of the citiesH5892 that are laid waste, a desolationH8077 fortyH705 yearsH8141; and I will scatterH2219 the Egyptians among the nationsH1471, and will disperseH2219 them through the countries.

13Yet thusH3541 saith the LordH136 Jehovah: At the endH7093 of fortyH705 yearsH8141 will I gatherH6908 the Egyptians from the peoplesH5971 whither they were scatteredH6327;

14and I will turnH7725 again the captivityH7622 of EgyptH4714, and will cause them to returnH7725 to the landH776 of PathrosH6624, into the landH776 of their birth, and they shall there beH1961 a base kingdomH4467.

15It shall beH1961 the basest of kingdomsH4467; neither shall it exalt itself any moreH4480 above the nationsH1471; and I will diminishH4591 them, so that they shall no moreH4480 ruleH7287 over the nationsH1471.

16And it shall beH1961 no more the confidenceH4009 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, bringingH2142 iniquityH5771 to remembranceH2142, when they turnH6437 after them: and they shall knowH3045 that I [am] the LordH136 Jehovah.
