[1]The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came again unto me, sayingH559,[H8800]
[2]SonH1121 of manH120, prophesyH5012[H8734] and sayH559[H8804], Thus saithH559[H8804] the LordH136 GODH3069; HowlH3213[H8685] ye, Woe worthH1929 the dayH3117!
[3]For the dayH3117 is nearH7138, even the dayH3117 of the LORDH3068 is nearH7138, a cloudyH6051 dayH3117; it shall be the timeH6256 of the heathenH1471.
[4]And the swordH2719 shall comeH935[H8804] upon EgyptH4714, and great painH2479 shall be in EthiopiaH3568, when the slainH2491 shall fallH5307[H8800] in EgyptH4714, and they shall take awayH3947[H8804] her multitudeH1995, and her foundationsH3247 shall be broken downH2040.[H8738]
[5]EthiopiaH3568, and LibyaH6316, and LydiaH3865, and all the mingledH6153 people, and ChubH3552, and the menH1121 of the landH776 that is in leagueH1285, shall fallH5307[H8799] with them by the swordH2719.
[6]Thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068; They also that upholdH5564[H8802] EgyptH4714 shall fallH5307[H8804]; and the prideH1347 of her powerH5797 shall come downH3381[H8804]: from the towerH4024 of SyeneH5482 shall they fallH5307[H8799] in it by the swordH2719, saithH5002[H8803] the LordH136 GODH3069.
[7]And they shall be desolateH8074[H8738] in the midstH8432 of the countriesH776 that are desolateH8074[H8737], and her citiesH5892 shall be in the midstH8432 of the citiesH5892 that are wastedH2717.[H8737]
[8]And they shall knowH3045[H8804] that I am the LORDH3068, when I have setH5414[H8800] a fireH784 in EgyptH4714, and when all her helpersH5826[H8802] shall be destroyedH7665.[H8738]
[9]In that dayH3117 shall messengersH4397 go forthH3318[H8799] from meH6440 in shipsH6716 to make the carelessH983 EthiopiansH3568 afraidH2729[H8687], and great painH2479 shall come upon them, as in the dayH3117 of EgyptH4714: for, lo, it comethH935.[H8802]
[10]Thus saithH559[H8804] the LordH136 GODH3069; I will also make the multitudeH1995 of EgyptH4714 to ceaseH7673[H8689] by the handH3027 of NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894.
[11]He and his peopleH5971 with him, the terribleH6184 of the nationsH1471, shall be broughtH935[H8716] to destroyH7843[H8763] the landH776: and they shall drawH7324[H8689] their swordsH2719 against EgyptH4714, and fillH4390[H8804] the landH776 with the slainH2491.
[12]And I will makeH5414[H8804] the riversH2975 dryH2724, and sellH4376[H8804] the landH776 into the handH3027 of the wickedH7451: and I will make the landH776 wasteH8074[H8689], and all that is thereinH4393, by the handH3027 of strangersH2114[H8801]: I the LORDH3068 have spokenH1696 itH8765.
[13]Thus saithH559[H8804] the LordH136 GODH3069; I will also destroyH6[H8689] the idolsH1544, and I will cause their imagesH457 to ceaseH7673[H8689] out of NophH5297; and there shall be no more a princeH5387 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714: and I will putH5414[H8804] a fearH3374 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
[14]And I will make PathrosH6624 desolateH8074[H8689], and will setH5414[H8804] fireH784 in ZoanH6814, and will executeH6213[H8804] judgmentsH8201 in NoH4996.
[15]And I will pourH8210[H8804] my furyH2534 upon SinH5512, the strengthH4581 of EgyptH4714; and I will cut offH3772[H8689] the multitudeH1995 of NoH4996.
[16]And I will setH5414[H8804] fireH784 in EgyptH4714: SinH5512 shall have greatH2342[H8800] painH2342[H8799], and NoH4996 shall be rent asunderH1234[H8736], and NophH5297 shall have distressesH6862 dailyH3119.
[17]The young menH970 of AvenH206 and of PibesethH6364 shall fallH5307[H8799] by the swordH2719: and these cities shall goH3212[H8799] into captivityH7628.
[18]At TehaphnehesH8471 also the dayH3117 shall be darkenedH2821[H8804][H8676][H2820][H8804], when I shall breakH7665[H8800] there the yokesH4133 of EgyptH4714: and the pompH1347 of her strengthH5797 shall ceaseH7673[H8738] in herH1931: as for her, a cloudH6051 shall coverH3680[H8762] her, and her daughtersH1323 shall goH3212[H8799] into captivityH7628.
[19]Thus will I executeH6213[H8804] judgmentsH8201 in EgyptH4714: and they shall knowH3045[H8804] that I am the LORDH3068.
[20]And it came to pass in the eleventhH259[H6240] yearH8141, in the firstH7223 month, in the seventhH7651 day of the monthH2320, that the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,[H8800]
[21]SonH1121 of manH120, I have brokenH7665[H8804] the armH2220 of PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714; and, lo, it shall not be bound upH2280[H8795] to be healedH7499[H5414][H8800], to putH7760[H8800] a rollerH2848 to bindH2280[H8800] it, to make it strongH2388[H8800] to holdH8610[H8800] the swordH2719.
[22]Therefore thus saithH559[H8804] the LordH136 GODH3069; Behold, I am against PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, and will breakH7665[H8804] his armsH2220, the strongH2389, and that which was brokenH7665[H8737]; and I will cause the swordH2719 to fallH5307[H8689] out of his handH3027.
[23]And I will scatterH6327[H8689] the EgyptiansH4714 among the nationsH1471, and will disperseH2219[H8765] them through the countriesH776.
[24]And I will strengthenH2388[H8765] the armsH2220 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and putH5414[H8804] my swordH2719 in his handH3027: but I will breakH7665[H8804] Pharaoh'sH6547 armsH2220, and he shall groanH5008[H8804] beforeH6440 him with the groaningsH5009 of a deadly wounded manH2491.
[25]But I will strengthenH2388[H8689] the armsH2220 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and the armsH2220 of PharaohH6547 shall fall downH5307[H8799]; and they shall knowH3045[H8804] that I am the LORDH3068, when I shall putH5414[H8800] my swordH2719 into the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and he shall stretch it outH5186[H8804] upon the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
[26]And I will scatterH6327[H8689] the EgyptiansH4714 among the nationsH1471, and disperseH2219[H8765] them among the countriesH776; and they shall knowH3045[H8804] that I am the LORDH3068.
