Ezekiel 32:7-32

7And when I 1extinguishH3518 you, I will 2coverH3680 the heavensH8064 and darkenH6937 their 3starsH3556; I will coverH3680 the 4sunH8121 with a cloudH6051 And the moonH3394 will not giveH215 its lightH216.8AllH3605 the shiningH3974 5lightsH216 in the heavensH8064 I will darkenH6937 overH5921 you And will setH5414 darknessH2822 on your landH776,” DeclaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068. 9“I will also 6troubleH3707 the heartsH3820 of manyH7227 peoplesH5971 when I 7bringH935 your destructionH7667 among the nationsH1471, into landsH776 whichH834 you have not knownH3045. 10I will makeH8074 manyH7227 peoplesH5971 8appalledH8074 at you, and their kingsH4428 will be horriblyH8178 afraidH8175 of you when I brandishH5774 My swordH2719 beforeH5921H6440 them; and 9they will trembleH2729 every momentH7281, everyH376 manH376 for his own lifeH5315, on the dayH3117 of your fallH4658.”

11For 10thusH3541 saysH559 the LordH136 GodH3068, “The swordH2719 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 will comeH935 upon you. 12By the swordsH2719 of the mightyH1368 onesH1368 I will cause your hordesH1995 to fallH5307; allH3605 of them are 11tyrantsH6184 of the nationsH1471, And they will 12devastateH7703 the prideH1347 of EgyptH4714, And allH3605 its hordesH1995 will be destroyedH8045.13I will also destroyH6 allH3605 its cattleH929 from besideH5921 manyH7227 watersH4325; And 13the footH7272 of manH120 will not muddyH1804 them anymoreH5750 And the hoofsH6541 of beastsH929 will not muddyH1804 them.14ThenH227 I will make their watersH4325 settleH8257 And will cause their riversH5104 to runH1980 like oilH8081,” DeclaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068.15“When I makeH5414 the landH776 of EgyptH4714 a 14desolationH8077, And the landH776 is destituteH8074 of that whichH4393 filledH4393 it, When I smiteH5221 allH3605 those who liveH3427 in it, Then they shall 15knowH3045 that I am the LordH3068. 16ThisH1931 is a 16lamentationH7015 and they shall 17chantH6969 it. The daughtersH1323 of the nationsH1471 shall 18chantH6969 it. OverH5921 EgyptH4714 and overH5921 allH3605 her hordesH1995 they shall 19chantH6969 it,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068.

17In the 20twelfthH8147H6240 yearH8141, on the 21fifteenthH2568H6240 of the monthH2320, the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to me sayingH559, 18“SonH1121 of manH120, 22wailH5091 for the hordesH1995 of EgyptH4714 and 23bringH3381 it downH3381, her and the daughtersH1323 of the powerfulH117 nationsH1471, to the 24netherH8482 worldH776, with those who goH3381 downH3381 to the pitH953;19‘WhomH4310 do you surpassH5276 in beautyH5276? GoH3381 downH3381 and makeH7901 your bedH7901 with the 25uncircumcisedH6189.’ 20They shall fallH5307 in the midstH8432 of those who are slainH2491 by the swordH2719. 26She is givenH5414 over to the swordH2719; they have 27drawnH4900 her and allH3605 her hordesH1995 awayH4900. 21The 28strongH410 among the mightyH1368 onesH1368 shall speakH1696 of him and his helpersH1368 from the midstH8432 of SheolH7585, ‘They have goneH3381 downH3381, they lieH7901 stillH7901, the uncircumcisedH6189, slainH2491 by the swordH2719.’

22“29AssyriaH804 is thereH8033 and allH3605 her companyH6951; 30her gravesH6913 are roundH5439 aboutH5439 31her. AllH3605 of them are slainH2491, fallenH5307 by the swordH2719, 23whoseH834 32gravesH6913 are setH5414 in the remotestH3411 partsH3411 of the pitH953 and her companyH6951 is roundH5439 aboutH5439 her graveH6900. AllH3605 of them are slainH2491, fallenH5307 by the swordH2719, whoH834 33spreadH5414 terrorH2851 in the landH776 of the livingH2416.

24“34ElamH5867 is thereH8033 and allH3605 her hordesH1995 aroundH5439 her graveH6900; allH3605 of them slainH2491, fallenH5307 by the swordH2719, whoH834 wentH3381 downH3381 uncircumcisedH6189 to the 35lowerH8482 partsH8482 of the earthH776, whoH834 instilledH5414 their terrorH2851 in the 36landH776 of the livingH2416 and 37boreH5375 their disgraceH3639 with those who wentH3381 downH3381 to the pitH953. 25They have madeH5414 a 38bedH4904 for her amongH8432 the slainH2491 with allH3605 her hordesH1995. Her gravesH6913 are aroundH5439 it, they are allH3605 uncircumcisedH6189, slainH2491 by the swordH2719 (althoughH3588 their terrorH2851 was 39instilledH5414 in the landH776 of the livingH2416), and they boreH5375 their disgraceH3639 with those who goH3381 downH3381 to the pitH953; 40they were putH5414 in the midstH8432 of the slainH2491.

26“41MeshechH4902, 42TubalH8422 and allH3605 their hordesH1995 are thereH8033; their gravesH6913 43surroundH5439 them. AllH3605 of them were slainH2490 by the swordH2719 44uncircumcisedH6189, thoughH3588 they instilledH5414 their terrorH2851 in the landH776 of the livingH2416. 2745NorH3808 do they lieH7901 besideH854 the fallenH5307 4647heroesH1368 of the uncircumcisedH6189, whoH834 wentH3381 downH3381 to SheolH7585 with their weaponsH3627 of warH4421 and whose swordsH2719 were laidH5414 underH8478 their headsH7218; but the punishmentH5771 for their 48iniquityH5771 restedH1961 on their bonesH6106, thoughH3588 the terrorH2851 of these 49heroesH1368 was once in the landH776 of the livingH2416. 28But in the midstH8432 of the uncircumcisedH6189 you will be brokenH7665 and lieH7901 with those slainH2491 by the swordH2719.

29“ThereH8033 also is 50EdomH112, its kingsH4428 and allH3605 its 51princesH5387, whoH834 52for all their mightH1369 are laidH5414 with those slainH2491 by the swordH2719; they will lieH7901 with the uncircumcisedH6189 and with those who goH3381 downH3381 to the pitH953.

30“ThereH8033 also are the 53chiefsH5257 of the 54northH6828, allH3605 of them, and allH3605 the 55SidoniansH6722, whoH834 in spite of the terrorH2851 resulting from their mightH1369, in shameH954 wentH3381 downH3381 with the slainH2491. So they layH7901 downH7901 uncircumcisedH6189 with those slainH2491 by the swordH2719 and boreH5375 their disgraceH3639 with those who goH3381 downH3381 to the pitH953.

31“These PharaohH6547 will seeH7200, and he will be 56comfortedH5162 for allH3605 his hordesH1995 slainH2491 by the swordH2719, even PharaohH6547 and allH3605 his armyH2428,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068. 32“ThoughH3588 I instilledH5414 a terrorH2851 of him in the landH776 of the livingH2416, yet he will be made to lieH7901 downH7901 amongH8432 the uncircumcisedH6189 along with those slainH2491 by the swordH2719, even PharaohH6547 and allH3605 his hordesH1995,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068.
