Context of Ezekiel 32:13

11“ ‘This is what the Almighty Lord says: The sword of the king of Babylon will attack you. 12I will cut down your people with the swords of warriors. All of them will be the most ruthless warriors among the nations. They will shatter the pride of Egypt and destroy its many people. I will also destroy all the animals beside its many water sources.

I will take everything in the land, and I will kill all the people who live there. Then they will know that I am the Lord.’
