Context of Ezekiel 30:8
6‘Thus says the Lord, “Indeed, those who support Egypt will fall And the pride of her power will come down; From Migdol to Syene They will fall within her by the sword,” Declares the Lord God. 7“They will be desolate In the midst of the desolated lands; And her cities will be In the midst of the devastated cities. And they will know that I am the Lord, When I set a fire in Egypt And all her helpers are broken. 9On that day messengers will go forth from Me in ships to frighten secure Ethiopia; and anguish will be on them as on the day of Egypt; for behold, it comes!” 10‘Thus says the Lord God, “I will also make the hordes of Egypt cease By the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.
