Eze 30:1 The word of the
Lord came again unto me, saying,
Eze 30:2 Son of man, prophesy and say, Thus saith the Lord God; Howl ye,
Woe worth the day!
Eze 30:3 For the day is near, even the day of the Lord is near, a cloudy
day; it shall be the time of the heathen.
Eze 30:4 And the sword shall come upon Egypt, and great pain shall be in
Ethiopia, when the slain shall fall in Egypt, and they shall take away her
multitude, and her foundations shall be broken down.
Eze 30:5 Ethiopia, and Libya, and Lydia, and all the mingled people, and
Chub, and the men of the land that is in league, shall fall with them by
the sword.
Eze 30:6 Thus saith the Lord; They also that uphold Egypt shall fall; and
the pride of her power shall come down: from the tower of Syene shall they
fall in it by the sword, saith the Lord God.
Eze 30:7 And they shall be desolate in the midst of the countries that are
desolate, and her cities shall be in the midst of the cities that are
wasted.
Eze 30:8 And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I have set a fire in
Egypt, and when all her helpers shall be destroyed.
Eze 30:9 In that day shall messengers go forth from me in ships to make
the careless Ethiopians afraid, and great pain shall come upon them, as in
the day of Egypt: for, lo, it cometh.
Eze 30:10 Thus saith the Lord God; I will also make the multitude of Egypt
to cease by the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon.
Eze 30:11 He and his people with him, the terrible of the nations, shall
be brought to destroy the land: and they shall draw their swords against
Egypt, and fill the land with the slain.
Eze 30:12 And I will make the rivers dry, and sell the land into the hand
of the wicked: and I will make the land waste, and all that is therein, by
the hand of strangers: I the Lord have spoken it.
Eze 30:13 Thus saith the Lord God; I will also destroy the idols, and I
will cause their images to cease out of Noph; and there shall be no more a
prince of the land of Egypt: and I will put a fear in the land of Egypt.
Eze 30:14 And I will make Pathros desolate, and will set fire in Zoan, and
will execute judgments in No.
Eze 30:15 And I will pour my fury upon Sin, the strength of Egypt; and I
will cut off the multitude of No.
Eze 30:16 And I will set fire in Egypt: Sin shall have great pain, and No
shall be rent asunder, and Noph shall have distresses daily.
Eze 30:17 The young men of Aven and of Pibeseth shall fall by the sword:
and these cities shall go into captivity.
Eze 30:18 At Tehaphnehes also the day shall be darkened, when I shall
break there the yokes of Egypt: and the pomp of her strength shall cease
in her: as for her, a cloud shall cover her, and her daughters shall go
into captivity.
Eze 30:19 Thus will I execute judgments in Egypt: and they shall know that
I am the Lord.
Eze 30:20 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first month, in
the seventh day of the month, that the word of the Lord came unto me,
saying,
Eze 30:21 Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and,
lo, it shall not be bound up to be healed, to put a roller to bind it, to
make it strong to hold the sword.
Eze 30:22 Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against Pharaoh
king of Egypt, and will break his arms, the strong, and that which was
broken; and I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand.
Eze 30:23 And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will
disperse them through the countries.
Eze 30:24 And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and put
my sword in his hand: but I will break Pharaoh's arms, and he shall groan
before him with the groanings of a deadly wounded man.
Eze 30:25 But I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and the
arms of Pharaoh shall fall down; and they shall know that I am the Lord,
when I shall put my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he
shall stretch it out upon the land of Egypt.
Eze 30:26 And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and disperse
them among the countries; and they shall know that I am the Lord. |
