Context of Ezekiel 30:14
12I will make the rivers dry, And sell the land into the hand of the wicked; I will make the land waste, and all that is in it, By the hand of aliens. I, the Lord, have spoken.” 13‘Thus says the Lord God: “I will also destroy the idols, And cause the images to cease from Noph; There shall no longer be princes from the land of Egypt; I will put fear in the land of Egypt. I will make Pathros desolate, Set fire to Zoan, And execute judgments in No. 15I will pour My fury on Sin, the strength of Egypt; I will cut off the multitude of No, 16And set a fire in Egypt; Sin shall have great pain, No shall be split open, And Noph shall be in distress daily.
