Context of Ezekiel 32:13

11For thus says Adonai Elohim: “The sword of the king of Babylon will come upon you. 12By the swords of the mighty I will cause your multitude to fall. They are all ruthless among the nations. They will devastate the pride of Egypt. All of its multitude will be annihilated. I will destroy all the beasts from beside plentiful water. No human foot will muddy them again, nor will hoofs of beasts muddy them. 14Then I will make their waters settle and make their streams flow like oil.” It is a declaration of Adonai. 15“When I make the land of Egypt desolate and waste when it was previously full, when I strike all that live there, they will know that I am Adonai.
