In the tenthH6224 yearH8141, in the tenthH6224 month, in the twelfthH8147+H6240 day of the monthH2320, the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, setH7760 thy faceH6440 against PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, and prophesyH5012 against him, and against all EgyptH4714:
SpeakH1696, and sayH559, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Behold, I am against thee, PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, the greatH1419 dragonH8577 that liethH7257 in the midstH8432 of his riversH2975, which hath saidH559, My riverH2975 is mine own, and I have madeH6213 it for myself.
But I will putH5414 hooksH2397+H2397 in thy jawsH3895, and I will cause the fishH1710 of thy riversH2975 to stickH1692 unto thy scalesH7193, and I will bring thee upH5927 out of the midstH8432 of thy riversH2975, and all the fishH1710 of thy riversH2975 shall stickH1692 unto thy scalesH7193.
And I will leaveH5203 thee thrown into the wildernessH4057, thee and all the fishH1710 of thy riversH2975: thou shalt fallH5307 upon the openH6440 fieldsH7704; thou shalt not be brought togetherH622, nor gatheredH6908: I have givenH5414 thee for meatH402 to the beastsH2416 of the fieldH776 and to the fowlsH5775 of the heavenH8064. {open…: Heb. face of the field}
And all the inhabitantsH3427 of EgyptH4714 shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068, because they have been a staffH4938 of reedH7070 to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478.
When they took holdH8610 of thee by thy handH3709, thou didst breakH7533, and rendH1234 all their shoulderH3802: and when they leanedH8172 upon thee, thou brakestH7665, and madest all their loinsH4975 to be at a standH5976.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Behold, I will bringH935 a swordH2719 upon thee, and cut offH3772 manH120 and beastH929 out of thee.
And the landH776 of EgyptH4714 shall be desolateH8077 and wasteH2723; and they shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068: because he hath saidH559, The riverH2975 is mine, and I have madeH6213 it.
Behold, therefore I am against thee, and against thy riversH2975, and I will makeH5414 the landH776 of EgyptH4714 utterlyH2721 wasteH2723 and desolateH8077, from the towerH4024 of SyeneH5482 even unto the borderH1366 of EthiopiaH3568. {utterly…: Heb. wastes of waste} {from…: or, from Migdol to Syene} {Syene: Heb. Seveneh}
No footH7272 of manH120 shall pass throughH5674 it, nor footH7272 of beastH929 shall pass throughH5674 it, neither shall it be inhabitedH3427 fortyH705 yearsH8141.
And I will makeH5414 the landH776 of EgyptH4714 desolateH8077 in the midstH8432 of the countriesH776 that are desolateH8074, and her citiesH5892 amongH8432 the citiesH5892 that are laid wasteH2717 shall be desolateH8077 fortyH705 yearsH8141: and I will scatterH6327 the EgyptiansH4714 among the nationsH1471, and will disperseH2219 them through the countriesH776.
Yet thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; At the endH7093 of fortyH705 yearsH8141 will I gatherH6908 the EgyptiansH4714 from the peopleH5971 whither they were scatteredH6327:
And I will bring againH7725 the captivityH7622 of EgyptH4714, and will cause them to returnH7725 into the landH776 of PathrosH6624, into the landH776 of their habitationH4351; and they shall be there a baseH8217 kingdomH4467. {habitation: or, birth} {base: Heb. low}
It shall be the basestH8217 of the kingdomsH4467; neither shall it exaltH5375 itself any more above the nationsH1471: for I will diminishH4591 them, that they shall no more ruleH7287 over the nationsH1471.
And it shall be no more the confidenceH4009 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, which bringethH2142 their iniquityH5771 to remembranceH2142, when they shall lookH6437 afterH310 them: but they shall knowH3045 that I am the LordH136 GODH3069.
And it came to pass in the sevenH7651 and twentiethH6242 yearH8141, in the firstH7223 month, in the firstH259 day of the monthH2320, the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
SonH1121 of manH120, NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 causedH5647 his armyH2428 to serveH5647 a greatH1419 serviceH5656 against TyrusH6865: every headH7218 was made baldH7139, and every shoulderH3802 was peeledH4803: yet had he no wagesH7939, nor his armyH2428, for TyrusH6865, for the serviceH5656 that he had servedH5647 against it:
Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Behold, I will giveH5414 the landH776 of EgyptH4714 unto NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894; and he shall takeH5375 her multitudeH1995, and takeH7997 her spoilH7998, and takeH962 her preyH957; and it shall be the wagesH7939 for his armyH2428. {take her spoil…: Heb. spoil her spoil, and prey her prey}
I have givenH5414 him the landH776 of EgyptH4714 for his labourH6468 wherewith he servedH5647 against it, because they wroughtH6213 for me, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069. {for his…: or, for his hire}
In that dayH3117 will I causeH6779 the hornH7161 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 to bud forthH6779, and I will giveH5414 thee the openingH6610 of the mouthH6310 in the midstH8432 of them; and they shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.

And sayH559, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Behold, I am against thee, O ZidonH6721; and I will be glorifiedH3513 in the midstH8432 of thee: and they shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068, when I shall have executedH6213 judgmentsH8201 in her, and shall be sanctifiedH6942 in her.
For I will sendH7971 into her pestilenceH1698, and bloodH1818 into her streetsH2351; and the woundedH2491 shall be judgedH5307 in the midstH8432 of her by the swordH2719 upon her on every sideH5439; and they shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
And there shall be no more a prickingH3992 brierH5544 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, nor any grievingH3510 thornH6975 of all that are round aboutH5439 them, that despisedH7590 them; and they shall knowH3045 that I am the LordH136 GODH3069.
Now, behold, thou trustestH982 upon the staffH4938 of this bruisedH7533 reedH7070, even upon EgyptH4714, on which if a manH376 leanH5564, it will goH935 into his handH3709, and pierceH5344 it: so is PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 unto all that trustH982 on him. {trustest: Heb. trustest thee}
And they shall dwellH3427 safelyH983 therein, and shall buildH1129 housesH1004, and plantH5193 vineyardsH3754; yea, they shall dwellH3427 with confidenceH983, when I have executedH6213 judgmentsH8201 upon all those that despiseH7590 them round aboutH5439 them; and they shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068 their GodH430. {safely: or, with confidence} {despise: or, spoil}
And they shall be afraidH2865 and ashamedH954 of EthiopiaH3568 their expectationH4007, and of EgyptH4714 their gloryH8597.
For I will at this timeH6471 sendH7971 all my plaguesH4046 upon thine heartH3820, and upon thy servantsH5650, and upon thy peopleH5971; that thou mayest knowH3045 that there is none like me in all the earthH776.
And the inhabitantH3427 of this isleH339 shall sayH559 in that dayH3117, Behold, suchH3541 is our expectationH4007, whither we fleeH5127 for helpH5833 to be deliveredH5337 fromH6440 the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804: and how shall we escapeH4422? {isle: or, country}
And the EgyptiansH4714 shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068, when I have gotten me honourH3513 upon PharaohH6547, upon his chariotsH7393, and upon his horsemenH6571.
That walkH1980 to go downH3381 into EgyptH4714, and have not askedH7592 at my mouthH6310; to strengthenH5810 themselves in the strengthH4581 of PharaohH6547, and to trustH2620 in the shadowH6738 of EgyptH4714!
Therefore shall the strengthH4581 of PharaohH6547 be your shameH1322, and the trustH2622 in the shadowH6738 of EgyptH4714 your confusionH3639.
For his princesH8269 were at ZoanH6814, and his ambassadorsH4397 cameH5060 to HanesH2609.
They were all ashamedH3001 of a peopleH5971 that could not profitH3276 them, nor be an helpH5828 nor profitH3276, but a shameH1322, and also a reproachH2781.
The burdenH4853 of the beastsH929 of the southH5045: into the landH776 of troubleH6869 and anguishH6695, from whence come the youngH3833 and old lionH3918, the viperH660 and fieryH8314 flyingH5774 serpentH8314, they will carryH5375 their richesH2428 upon the shouldersH3802 of young assesH5895, and their treasuresH214 upon the bunchesH1707 of camelsH1581, to a peopleH5971 that shall not profitH3276 them.
For the EgyptiansH4714 shall helpH5826 in vainH1892, and to no purposeH7385: therefore have I criedH7121 concerning thisH2063, TheirH1992 strengthH7293 is to sit stillH7674. {concerning…: or, to her}
WoeH1945 to them that go downH3381 to EgyptH4714 for helpH5833; and stayH8172 on horsesH5483, and trustH982 in chariotsH7393, because they are manyH7227; and in horsemenH6571, because they are veryH3966 strongH6105; but they lookH8159 not unto the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478, neither seekH1875 the LORDH3068!
Yet he also is wiseH2450, and will bringH935 evilH7451, and will not call backH5493 his wordsH1697: but will ariseH6965 against the houseH1004 of the evildoersH7489, and against the helpH5833 of them that workH6466 iniquityH205. {call…: Heb. remove}
Now the EgyptiansH4714 are menH120, and not GodH410; and their horsesH5483 fleshH1320, and not spiritH7307. When the LORDH3068 shall stretch outH5186 his handH3027, both he that helpethH5826 shall fallH3782, and he that is holpenH5826 shall fall downH5307, and they all shall failH3615 togetherH3162.
Lo, thou trustestH982 in the staffH4938 of this brokenH7533 reedH7070, on EgyptH4714; whereon if a manH376 leanH5564, it will goH935 into his handH3709, and pierceH5344 it: so is PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 to all that trustH982 in him.
