Context of Ezekiel 32:13

11“‘For this is what the sovereign Lord says: “‘The sword of the king of Babylon will attack you. 12By the swords of the mighty warriors I will cause your hordes to fall – all of them are the most terrifying among the nations. They will devastate the pride of Egypt, and all its hordes will be destroyed. I will destroy all its cattle beside the plentiful waters; and no human foot will disturb the waters again, nor will the hooves of cattle disturb them. 14Then I will make their waters calm, and will make their streams flow like olive oil, declares the sovereign Lord. 15When I turn the land of Egypt into desolation and the land is destitute of everything that fills it, when I strike all those who live in it, then they will know that I am the Lord.’
