1 - In The Tenth Year, In The Tenth Month On The Twelfth Day, The Word Of The Lord Came To Me:
2 - "Son Of Man, Set Your Face Against Pharaoh King Of Egypt And Prophesy Against Him And Against All Egypt.
3 - Speak To Him And Say: 'This Is What The Sovereign Lord Says: " 'I Am Against You, Pharaoh King Of Egypt, You Great Monster Lying Among Your Streams. You Say, "The Nile Is Mine; I Made It For Myself."
4 - But I Will Put Hooks In Your Jaws And Make The Fish Of Your Streams Stick To Your Scales. I Will Pull You Out From Among Your Streams, With All The Fish Sticking To Your Scales.
5 - I Will Leave You In The Desert, You And All The Fish Of Your Streams. You Will Fall On The Open Field And Not Be Gathered Or Picked Up. I Will Give You As Food To The Beasts Of The Earth And The Birds Of The Air.
6 - Then All Who Live In Egypt Will Know That I Am The Lord . " 'You Have Been A Staff Of Reed For The House Of Israel.
7 - When They Grasped You With Their Hands, You Splintered And You Tore Open Their Shoulders; When They Leaned On You, You Broke And Their Backs Were Wrenched.
8 - " 'Therefore This Is What The Sovereign Lord Says: I Will Bring A Sword Against You And Kill Your Men And Their Animals.
9 - Egypt Will Become A Desolate Wasteland. Then They Will Know That I Am The Lord . " 'Because You Said, "The Nile Is Mine; I Made It,"
10 - Therefore I Am Against You And Against Your Streams, And I Will Make The Land Of Egypt A Ruin And A Desolate Waste From Migdol To Aswan, As Far As The Border Of Cush.
11 - No Foot Of Man Or Animal Will Pass Through It; No One Will Live There For Forty Years.
12 - I Will Make The Land Of Egypt Desolate Among Devastated Lands, And Her Cities Will Lie Desolate Forty Years Among Ruined Cities. And I Will Disperse The Egyptians Among The Nations And Scatter Them Through The Countries.
13 - " 'Yet This Is What The Sovereign Lord Says: At The End Of Forty Years I Will Gather The Egyptians From The Nations Where They Were Scattered.
14 - I Will Bring Them Back From Captivity And Return Them To Upper Egypt, The Land Of Their Ancestry. There They Will Be A Lowly Kingdom.
15 - It Will Be The Lowliest Of Kingdoms And Will Never Again Exalt Itself Above The Other Nations. I Will Make It So Weak That It Will Never Again Rule Over The Nations.
16 - Egypt Will No Longer Be A Source Of Confidence For The People Of Israel But Will Be A Reminder Of Their Sin In Turning To Her For Help. Then They Will Know That I Am The Sovereign Lord .' "
17 - In The Twenty-seventh Year, In The First Month On The First Day, The Word Of The Lord Came To Me:
18 - "Son Of Man, Nebuchadnezzar King Of Babylon Drove His Army In A Hard Campaign Against Tyre; Every Head Was Rubbed Bare And Every Shoulder Made Raw. Yet He And His Army Got No Reward From The Campaign He Led Against Tyre.
19 - Therefore This Is What The Sovereign Lord Says: I Am Going To Give Egypt To Nebuchadnezzar King Of Babylon, And He Will Carry Off Its Wealth. He Will Loot And Plunder The Land As Pay For His Army.
20 - I Have Given Him Egypt As A Reward For His Efforts Because He And His Army Did It For Me, Declares The Sovereign Lord .
21 - "On That Day I Will Make A Horn Grow For The House Of Israel, And I Will Open Your Mouth Among Them. Then They Will Know That I Am The Lord ."
