World English Bible Classic
[1] Yahweh’s word came again to me, saying, [2] “Son of man, prophesy, and say, ‘The Lord Yahweh says:
“Wail, ‘Alas for the day!’
[3] For the day is near,
even Yahweh’s day is near.
It will be a day of clouds,
a time of the nations.
[4] A sword will come on Egypt,
and anguish will be in Ethiopia,
when the slain fall in Egypt.
They take away her multitude,
and her foundations are broken down. [5] “ ‘ “Ethiopia, Put, Lud, all the mixed people, Cub, and the children of the land that is allied with them, will fall with them by the sword.” [6] “ ‘Yahweh says:
“They also who uphold Egypt will fall.
The pride of her power will come down.
They will fall by the sword in it from the tower of Seveneh,”
says the Lord Yahweh.
[7] “They will be desolate in the middle of the countries that are desolate.
Her cities will be among the cities that are wasted.
[8] They will know that I am Yahweh
when I have set a fire in Egypt,
and all her helpers are destroyed. [9] “ ‘ “In that day messengers will go out from before me in ships to make the careless Ethiopians afraid. There will be anguish on them, as in the day of Egypt; for, behold, it comes.” [10] “ ‘The Lord Yahweh says:
“I will also make the multitude of Egypt to cease,
by the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.
[11] He and his people with him,
the terrible of the nations,
will be brought in to destroy the land.
They will draw their swords against Egypt,
and fill the land with the slain.
[12] I will make the rivers dry,
and will sell the land into the hand of evil men.
I will make the land desolate,
and all that is therein,
by the hand of foreigners.
I, Yahweh, have spoken it.” [13] “ ‘The Lord Yahweh says:
“I will also destroy the idols,
and I will cause the images to cease from Memphis.
There will be no more a prince from the land of Egypt.
I will put a fear in the land of Egypt.
[14] I will make Pathros desolate,
and will set a fire in Zoan,
and will execute judgments on No.
[15] I will pour my wrath on Sin,
the stronghold of Egypt.
I will cut off the multitude of No.
[16] I will set a fire in Egypt
Sin will be in great anguish.
No will be broken up.
Memphis will have adversaries in the daytime.
[17] The young men of Aven and of Pibeseth will fall by the sword.
They will go into captivity.
[18] At Tehaphnehes also the day will withdraw itself,
when I break the yokes of Egypt there.
The pride of her power will cease in her.
As for her, a cloud will cover her,
and her daughters will go into captivity.
[19] Thus I will execute judgments on Egypt.
Then they will know that I am Yahweh.” ’ ” [20] In the eleventh year, in the first month, in the seventh day of the month, Yahweh’s word came to me, saying, [21] “Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt. Behold, it has not been bound up, to apply medicines, to put a bandage to bind it, that it may become strong to hold the sword. [22] Therefore the Lord Yahweh says: ‘Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and will break his arms, the strong arm, and that which was broken. I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand. [23] I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries. [24] I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and put my sword in his hand; but I will break the arms of Pharaoh, and he will groan before the king of Babylon with the groaning of a mortally wounded man. [25] I will hold up the arms of the king of Babylon, but the arms of Pharaoh will fall down. Then they will know that I am Yahweh when I put my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he stretches it out on the land of Egypt. [26] I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations and disperse them through the countries. Then they will know that I am Yahweh.’ ”

Desolation of Egypt
[1] The word H1697 of the Lord H3068 came again unto me, saying, H559 (QalInf) [2] Son H1121 of man, H120 prophesy H5012 (NiphImpv) and say, H559 (QalPerf) Thus saith H559 (QalPerf) the Lord H136 God; H3069 Howl H3213 (HiphImpv) ye, Woe worth H1929 the day! H3117 [3] For the day H3117 is near, H7138 even the day H3117 of the Lord H3068 is near, H7138 a cloudy H6051 day; H3117 it shall be the time H6256 of the heathen. H1471 [4] And the sword H2719 shall come H935 (QalPerf) upon Egypt, H4714 and great pain H2479§ shall be in Ethiopia, H3568 when the slain H2491 shall fall H5307 (QalInf) in Egypt, H4714 and they shall take away H3947 (QalPerf) her multitude, H1995 and her foundations H3247 shall be broken down. H2040 (NiphPerf) [5] Ethiopia, H3568 and Libya, H6316§ and Lydia, H3865 and all the mingled H6153 people, and Chub, H3552 and the men H1121§ of the land H776 that is in league, H1285 shall fall H5307 (QalImpf) with them by the sword. H2719 [6] Thus saith H559 (QalPerf) the Lord; H3068 They also that uphold H5564 (QalActPtc) Egypt H4714 shall fall; H5307 (QalPerf) and the pride H1347 of her power H5797 shall come down: H3381 (QalPerf) from the tower H4024 of Syene H5482 shall they fall H5307 (QalImpf) in it by the sword, H2719 saith H5002 (QalPasPtc) the Lord H136 God. H3069 [7] And they shall be desolate H8074 (NiphPerf) in the midst H8432 of the countries H776 that are desolate, H8074 (NiphPtc) and her cities H5892 shall be in the midst H8432 of the cities H5892 that are wasted. H2717 (NiphPtc) [8] And they shall know H3045 (QalPerf) that I am the Lord, H3068 when I have set H5414 (QalInf) a fire H784 in Egypt, H4714 and when all her helpers H5826 (QalActPtc) shall be destroyed. H7665 (NiphPerf)§ [9] In that day H3117 shall messengers H4397 go forth H3318 (QalImpf) from me H6440 in ships H6716 to make the careless H983 Ethiopians H3568 afraid, H2729 (HiphInf) and great pain H2479 shall come upon them, as in the day H3117 of Egypt: H4714 for, lo, it cometh. H935 (QalActPtc) [10] Thus saith H559 (QalPerf) the Lord H136 God; H3069 I will also make the multitude H1995 of Egypt H4714 to cease H7673 (HiphPerf) by the hand H3027 of Nebuchadrezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon. H894 [11] He and his people H5971 with him, the terrible H6184 of the nations, H1471 shall be brought H935 (HophPtc) to destroy H7843 (PielInf) the land: H776 and they shall draw H7324 (HiphPerf) their swords H2719 against Egypt, H4714 and fill H4390 (QalPerf) the land H776 with the slain. H2491 [12] And I will make H5414 (QalPerf) the rivers H2975 dry, H2724§ and sell H4376 (QalPerf) the land H776 into the hand H3027 of the wicked: H7451 and I will make the land H776 waste, H8074 (HiphPerf) and all that is therein, H4393§ by the hand H3027 of strangers: H2114 (QalPtc) I the Lord H3068 have spoken H1696 (PielPerf) it. [13] Thus saith H559 (QalPerf) the Lord H136 God; H3069 I will also destroy H6 (HiphPerf) the idols, H1544 and I will cause their images H457 to cease H7673 (HiphPerf) out of Noph; H5297 and there shall be no more a prince H5387 of the land H776 of Egypt: H4714 and I will put H5414 (QalPerf) a fear H3374 in the land H776 of Egypt. H4714 [14] And I will make Pathros H6624 desolate, H8074 (HiphPerf) and will set H5414 (QalPerf) fire H784 in Zoan, H6814§ and will execute H6213 (QalPerf) judgments H8201 in No. H4996 [15] And I will pour H8210 (QalPerf) my fury H2534 upon Sin, H5512§ the strength H4581 of Egypt; H4714 and I will cut off H3772 (HiphPerf) the multitude H1995 of No. H4996 [16] And I will set H5414 (QalPerf) fire H784 in Egypt: H4714 Sin H5512 shall have great H2342 (QalInf) pain, H2342 (QalImpf) and No H4996 shall be rent asunder, H1234 (NiphInf) and Noph H5297 shall have distresses H6862 daily. H3119 [17] The young men H970 of Aven H206§ and of Pi-beseth H6364 shall fall H5307 (QalImpf) by the sword: H2719 and these cities shall go H3212 (QalImpf) into captivity. H7628 [18] At Tehaphnehes H8471 also the day H3117 shall be darkened, H2821 (QalPerf/Ketiv)§ when I shall break H7665 (QalInf) there the yokes H4133 of Egypt: H4714 and the pomp H1347 of her strength H5797 shall cease H7673 (NiphPerf) in her: H1931 as for her, a cloud H6051 shall cover H3680 (PielImpf) her, and her daughters H1323 shall go H3212 (QalImpf) into captivity. H7628 [19] Thus will I execute H6213 (QalPerf) judgments H8201 in Egypt: H4714 and they shall know H3045 (QalPerf) that I am the Lord. H3068 [20] And it came to pass in the eleventh H259 year, H8141 in the first H7223 month, in the seventh H7651 day of the month, H2320 that the word H1697 of the Lord H3068 came unto me, saying, H559 (QalInf) [21] Son H1121 of man, H120 I have broken H7665 (QalPerf) the arm H2220 of Pharaoh H6547 king H4428 of Egypt; H4714 and, lo, it shall not be bound up H2280 (PualPerf) to be healed, H7499 to put H7760 (QalInf) a roller H2848 to bind H2280 (QalInf) it, to make it strong H2388 (QalInf) to hold H8610 (QalInf) the sword. H2719 [22] Therefore thus saith H559 (QalPerf) the Lord H136 God; H3069 Behold, I am against Pharaoh H6547 king H4428 of Egypt, H4714 and will break H7665 (QalPerf) his arms, H2220 the strong, H2389 and that which was broken; H7665 (NiphPtc) and I will cause the sword H2719 to fall H5307 (HiphPerf) out of his hand. H3027 [23] And I will scatter H6327 (HiphPerf) the Egyptians H4714 among the nations, H1471 and will disperse H2219 (PielPerf) them through the countries. H776 [24] And I will strengthen H2388 (PielPerf) the arms H2220 of the king H4428 of Babylon, H894 and put H5414 (QalPerf) my sword H2719 in his hand: H3027 but I will break H7665 (QalPerf) Pharaoh’s H6547 arms, H2220 and he shall groan H5008 (QalPerf) before H6440 him with the groanings H5009 of a deadly wounded H2491 man. [25] But I will strengthen H2388 (HiphPerf) the arms H2220 of the king H4428 of Babylon, H894 and the arms H2220 of Pharaoh H6547 shall fall down; H5307 (QalImpf) and they shall know H3045 (QalPerf) that I am the Lord, H3068 when I shall put H5414 (QalInf) my sword H2719 into the hand H3027 of the king H4428 of Babylon, H894 and he shall stretch it out H5186 (QalPerf) upon the land H776 of Egypt. H4714 [26] And I will scatter H6327 (HiphPerf) the Egyptians H4714 among the nations, H1471 and disperse H2219 (PielPerf) them among the countries; H776 and they shall know H3045 (QalPerf) that I am the Lord.
