Ezekiel 32:18-32
18“Son of man, 1wail for the hordes of Egypt and 2bring it down, her and the daughters of the powerful nations, to the 3nether world, with those who go down to the pit;19‘Whom do you surpass in beauty? Go down and make your bed with the 4uncircumcised.’ 20They shall fall in the midst of those who are slain by the sword. 5She is given over to the sword; they have 6drawn her and all her hordes away. 21The 7strong among the mighty ones shall speak of him and his helpers from the midst of Sheol, ‘They have gone down, they lie still, the uncircumcised, slain by the sword.’
22“8Assyria is there and all her company; 9her graves are round about 10her. All of them are slain, fallen by the sword, 23whose 11graves are set in the remotest parts of the pit and her company is round about her grave. All of them are slain, fallen by the sword, who 12spread terror in the land of the living.
24“13Elam is there and all her hordes around her grave; all of them slain, fallen by the sword, who went down uncircumcised to the 14lower parts of the earth, who instilled their terror in the 15land of the living and 16bore their disgrace with those who went down to the pit. 25They have made a 17bed for her among the slain with all her hordes. Her graves are around it, they are all uncircumcised, slain by the sword (although their terror was 18instilled in the land of the living), and they bore their disgrace with those who go down to the pit; 19they were put in the midst of the slain.
26“20Meshech, 21Tubal and all their hordes are there; their graves 22surround them. All of them were slain by the sword 23uncircumcised, though they instilled their terror in the land of the living. 2724Nor do they lie beside the fallen 2526heroes of the uncircumcised, who went down to Sheol with their weapons of war and whose swords were laid under their heads; but the punishment for their 27iniquity rested on their bones, though the terror of these 28heroes was once in the land of the living. 28But in the midst of the uncircumcised you will be broken and lie with those slain by the sword.
29“There also is 29Edom, its kings and all its 30princes, who 31for all their might are laid with those slain by the sword; they will lie with the uncircumcised and with those who go down to the pit.
30“There also are the 32chiefs of the 33north, all of them, and all the 34Sidonians, who in spite of the terror resulting from their might, in shame went down with the slain. So they lay down uncircumcised with those slain by the sword and bore their disgrace with those who go down to the pit.
31“These Pharaoh will see, and he will be 35comforted for all his hordes slain by the sword, even Pharaoh and all his army,” declares the Lord God. 32“Though I instilled a terror of him in the land of the living, yet he will be made to lie down among the uncircumcised along with those slain by the sword, even Pharaoh and all his hordes,” declares the Lord God.
