Context of Ezekiel 30:19
17The young men of Heliopolis and Bubastis will die in the war. Enemies will take the other people from those cities as their prisoners. 18It will be a very dark day in Tahpanhes when I destroy Egypt's strength. Egypt will not be proud of her great power any more. A dark cloud will cover the land. Enemies will take away the people from Egypt's villages as prisoners. That is how I will punish Egypt. Then they will know that I am the Lord.” ’ 20The Lord gave this message to me on the 7th day of the first month, in the 11th year: 21‘Son of man, I have removed the strength of Pharaoh, king of Egypt. It is as if I have broken his arm and nobody has helped it to mend. He will never again have the power to fight battles.
