Ezekiel 30:1-12

1The wordH1697 of YhwhH3068 came again unto me, sayingH559,

2SonH1121 of manH120, prophesyH5012 and sayH559, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 YhwhH3069; HowlH3213 ye, Woe worthH1929 the dayH3117!

3For the dayH3117 is nearH7138, even the dayH3117 of YhwhH3068 is nearH7138, a cloudyH6051 dayH3117; it shall be the timeH6256 of the heathenH1471.

4And the swordH2719 shall comeH935 upon EgyptH4714, and great painH2479 shall be in EthiopiaH3568, when the slainH2491 shall fallH5307 in EgyptH4714, and they shall take awayH3947 her multitudeH1995, and her foundationsH3247 shall be broken downH2040.1

5EthiopiaH3568, and LibyaH6316, and LydiaH3865, and all the mingledH6153 people, and ChubH3552, and the menH1121 of the landH776 that is in leagueH1285, shall fallH5307 with them by the swordH2719.23

6Thus saithH559 YhwhH3068; They also that upholdH5564 EgyptH4714 shall fallH5307; and the prideH1347 of her powerH5797 shall come downH3381: from the towerH4024 of SyeneH5482 shall they fallH5307 in it by the swordH2719, saithH5002 the LordH136 YhwhH3069.4

7And they shall be desolateH8074 in the midstH8432 of the countriesH776 that are desolateH8074, and her citiesH5892 shall be in the midstH8432 of the citiesH5892 that are wastedH2717.

8And they shall knowH3045 that I am YhwhH3068, when I have setH5414 a fireH784 in EgyptH4714, and when all her helpersH5826 shall be destroyedH7665.5

9In that dayH3117 shall messengersH4397 go forthH3318 from meH6440 in shipsH6716 to make the carelessH983 EthiopiansH3568 afraidH2729, and great painH2479 shall come upon them, as in the dayH3117 of EgyptH4714: for, lo, it comethH935.

10Thus saithH559 the LordH136 YhwhH3069; I will also make the multitudeH1995 of EgyptH4714 to ceaseH7673 by the handH3027 of NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894.

11He and his peopleH5971 with him, the terribleH6184 of the nationsH1471, shall be broughtH935 to destroyH7843 the landH776: and they shall drawH7324 their swordsH2719 against EgyptH4714, and fillH4390 the landH776 with the slainH2491.

12And I will makeH5414 the riversH2975 dryH2724, and sellH4376 the landH776 into the handH3027 of the wickedH7451: and I will make the landH776 wasteH8074, and all that is thereinH4393, by the handH3027 of strangersH2114: I YhwhH3068 have spokenH1696 it.67
