In the tenth <H6224> year, <H8141> in the tenth <H6224> [month], in the twelfth <H8147> <H6240> [day] of the month, <H2320> the word <H1697> of the LORD <H3068> came unto me, saying, <H0559>
2
Son <H1121> of man, <H0120> set <H7760> thy face <H6440> against Pharaoh <H6547> king <H4428> of Egypt, <H4714> and prophesy <H5012> against him, and against all Egypt: <H4714>
3
Speak, <H1696> and say, <H0559> Thus saith <H0559> the Lord <H0136> GOD; <H3069> Behold, I [am] against thee, Pharaoh <H6547> king <H4428> of Egypt, <H4714> the great <H1419> dragon <H8577> that lieth <H7257> in the midst <H8432> of his rivers, <H2975> which hath said, <H0559> My river <H2975> [is] mine own, and I have made <H6213> [it] for myself.
4
But I will put <H5414> hooks <H2397> <H2397> in thy jaws, <H3895> and I will cause the fish <H1710> of thy rivers <H2975> to stick <H1692> unto thy scales, <H7193> and I will bring thee up <H5927> out of the midst <H8432> of thy rivers, <H2975> and all the fish <H1710> of thy rivers <H2975> shall stick <H1692> unto thy scales. <H7193>
5
And I will leave <H5203> thee [thrown] into the wilderness, <H4057> thee and all the fish <H1710> of thy rivers: <H2975> thou shalt fall <H5307> upon the open <H6440> fields; <H7704> thou shalt not be brought together, <H0622> nor gathered: <H6908> I have given <H5414> thee for meat <H0402> to the beasts <H2416> of the field <H0776> and to the fowls <H5775> of the heaven. <H8064>
6
And all the inhabitants <H3427> of Egypt <H4714> shall know <H3045> that I [am] the LORD, <H3068> because they have been a staff <H4938> of reed <H7070> to the house <H1004> of Israel. <H3478>
7
When they took hold <H8610> of thee by thy hand, <H3709> thou didst break, <H7533> and rend <H1234> all their shoulder: <H3802> and when they leaned <H8172> upon thee, thou brakest, <H7665> and madest all their loins <H4975> to be at a stand. <H5976>
8
Therefore thus saith <H0559> the Lord <H0136> GOD; <H3069> Behold, I will bring <H0935> a sword <H2719> upon thee, and cut off <H3772> man <H0120> and beast <H0929> out of thee.
9
And the land <H0776> of Egypt <H4714> shall be desolate <H8077> and waste; <H2723> and they shall know <H3045> that I [am] the LORD: <H3068> because he hath said, <H0559> The river <H2975> [is] mine, and I have made <H6213> [it].
10
Behold, therefore I [am] against thee, and against thy rivers, <H2975> and I will make <H5414> the land <H0776> of Egypt <H4714> utterly <H2721> waste <H2723> [and] desolate, <H8077> from the tower <H4024> of Syene <H5482> even unto the border <H1366> of Ethiopia. <H3568>
11
No foot <H7272> of man <H0120> shall pass <H5674> through it, nor foot <H7272> of beast <H0929> shall pass <H5674> through it, neither shall it be inhabited <H3427> forty <H0705> years. <H8141>
12
And I will make <H5414> the land <H0776> of Egypt <H4714> desolate <H8077> in the midst <H8432> of the countries <H0776> [that are] desolate, <H8074> and her cities <H5892> among <H8432> the cities <H5892> [that are] laid waste <H2717> shall be desolate <H8077> forty <H0705> years: <H8141> and I will scatter <H6327> the Egyptians <H4714> among the nations, <H1471> and will disperse <H2219> them through the countries. <H0776>
13
Yet thus saith <H0559> the Lord <H0136> GOD; <H3069> At the end <H7093> of forty <H0705> years <H8141> will I gather <H6908> the Egyptians <H4714> from the people <H5971> whither they were scattered: <H6327>
14
And I will bring again <H7725> the captivity <H7622> of Egypt, <H4714> and will cause them to return <H7725> [into] the land <H0776> of Pathros, <H6624> into the land <H0776> of their habitation; <H4351> and they shall be there a base <H8217> kingdom. <H4467>
15
It shall be the basest <H8217> of the kingdoms; <H4467> neither shall it exalt <H5375> itself any more above the nations: <H1471> for I will diminish <H4591> them, that they shall no more rule <H7287> over the nations. <H1471>
16
And it shall be no more the confidence <H4009> of the house <H1004> of Israel, <H3478> which bringeth [their] iniquity <H5771> to remembrance, <H2142> when they shall look <H6437> after <H0310> them: but they shall know <H3045> that I [am] the Lord <H0136> GOD. <H3069>
17
And it came to pass in the seven <H7651> and twentieth <H6242> year, <H8141> in the first <H7223> [month], in the first <H0259> [day] of the month, <H2320> the word <H1697> of the LORD <H3068> came unto me, saying, <H0559>
18
Son <H1121> of man, <H0120> Nebuchadrezzar <H5019> king <H4428> of Babylon <H0894> caused his army <H2428> to serve <H5647> a great <H1419> service <H5656> against Tyrus: <H6865> every head <H7218> [was] made bald, <H7139> and every shoulder <H3802> [was] peeled: <H4803> yet had he no wages, <H7939> nor his army, <H2428> for Tyrus, <H6865> for the service <H5656> that he had served <H5647> against it:
19
Therefore thus saith <H0559> the Lord <H0136> GOD; <H3069> Behold, I will give <H5414> the land <H0776> of Egypt <H4714> unto Nebuchadrezzar <H5019> king <H4428> of Babylon; <H0894> and he shall take <H5375> her multitude, <H1995> and take <H7997> her spoil, <H7998> and take <H0962> her prey; <H0957> and it shall be the wages <H7939> for his army. <H2428>
20
I have given <H5414> him the land <H0776> of Egypt <H4714> [for] his labour <H6468> wherewith he served <H5647> against it, because they wrought <H6213> for me, saith <H5002> the Lord <H0136> GOD. <H3069>
21
In that day <H3117> will I cause the horn <H7161> of the house <H1004> of Israel <H3478> to bud forth, <H6779> and I will give <H5414> thee the opening <H6610> of the mouth <H6310> in the midst <H8432> of them; and they shall know <H3045> that I [am] the LORD. <H3068>
