Ezekiel 30

Ezekiel Chapter 30 KJV

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