Ezekiel 29:1-7
1In the tenthH6224 yearH8141, in the tenthH6224 month, in the twelfthH6240H8147 day of the monthH2320, the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
2SonH1121 of manH120, setH7760 thy faceH6440 against PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, and prophesyH5012 against him, and against all EgyptH4714:
3SpeakH1696, and sayH559, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 YhwhH3069; Behold, I am against thee, PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, the greatH1419 dragonH8577 that liethH7257 in the midstH8432 of his riversH2975, which hath saidH559, My riverH2975 is mine own, and I have madeH6213 it for myself.
4But I will putH5414 hooksH2397 in thy jawsH3895, and I will cause the fishH1710 of thy riversH2975 to stickH1692 unto thy scalesH7193, and I will bring thee upH5927 out of the midstH8432 of thy riversH2975, and all the fishH1710 of thy riversH2975 shall stickH1692 unto thy scalesH7193.
5And I will leaveH5203 thee thrown into the wildernessH4057, thee and all the fishH1710 of thy riversH2975: thou shalt fallH5307 upon the openH6440 fieldsH7704; thou shalt not be brought togetherH622, nor gatheredH6908: I have givenH5414 thee for meatH402 to the beastsH2416 of the fieldH776 and to the fowlsH5775 of the heavenH8064.1
6And all the inhabitantsH3427 of EgyptH4714 shall knowH3045 that I am YhwhH3068, because they have been a staffH4938 of reedH7070 to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478.
7When they took holdH8610 of thee by thy handH3709, thou didst breakH7533, and rendH1234 all their shoulderH3802: and when they leanedH8172 upon thee, thou brakestH7665, and madest all their loinsH4975 to be at a standH5976.
