Context of Ezekiel 32:9

7When I put out your light, I will cover the heavens, and make its stars dark; I will cover the sun with a cloud, And the moon shall not give her light. 8All the bright lights of the heavens I will make dark over you, And bring darkness upon your land,” Says the Lord God. ‘I will also trouble the hearts of many peoples, when I bring your destruction among the nations, into the countries which you have not known. 10Yes, I will make many peoples astonished at you, and their kings shall be horribly afraid of you when I brandish My sword before them; and they shall tremble every moment, every man for his own life, in the day of your fall. 11‘For thus says the Lord God: “The sword of the king of Babylon shall come upon you.
