Ezekiel 32:2-8

2“Son of man, mourn for Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and give him this message: “You think of yourself as a strong young lion among the nations, but you are really just a sea monster, heaving around in your own rivers, stirring up mud with your feet.

3Therefore, this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I will send many people to catch you in my net and haul you out of the water.

4I will leave you stranded on the land to die. All the birds of the heavens will land on you, and the wild animals of the whole earth will gorge themselves on you.

5I will scatter your flesh on the hills and fill the valleys with your bones.

6I will drench the earth with your gushing blood all the way to the mountains, filling the ravines to the brim.

7When I blot you out, I will veil the heavens and darken the stars. I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon will not give you its light.

8I will darken the bright stars overhead and cover your land in darkness. I, the Sovereign Lord, have spoken!
