Ezekiel 32:1-10

1And it came to pass in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, in the firstday of the month, that the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

2Son of man, take up a lamentation for Pharaoh king of Egypt, and say to him, Thou art like a young lion of the nations, and thou art as a whale in the seas: and thou didst come forth with thy rivers, and didst trouble the waters with thy feet, and didst foul their rivers.1

3Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will therefore spread out my net over thee with a company of many people; and they shall bring thee up in my net.

4Then will I leave thee upon the land, and I will cast thee forth upon the open field, and will cause all the fowls of the heaven to remain upon thee, and I will fill the beasts of the whole earth with thee.

5And I will lay thy flesh upon the mountains, and fill the valleys with thy height.

6I will also water with thy blood the land in which thou swimmest, even to the mountains; and the rivers shall be full of thee.2

7And when I shall put thee out, I will cover the heaven, and make its stars dark; I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon shall not give her light.3

8All the bright lights of heaven will I make dark over thee, and set darkness upon thy land, saith the Lord GOD.45

9I will also vex the hearts of many people, when I shall bring thy destruction among the nations, into the countries which thou hast not known.6

10Yea, I will make many people astonished at thee, and their kings shall be horribly afraid for thee, when I shall brandish my sword before them; and they shall tremble at every moment, every man for his own life, in the day of thy fall.
