30:10. Thus saith the Lord God: I will make the multitude of Egypt to
cease by the hand of Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon.
30:11. He and his people with him, the strongest of nations, shall be
brought to destroy the land: and they shall draw their swords upon
Egypt: and shall fill the land with the slain.
30:12. And I will make the channels of the rivers dry, and will deliver
the land into the hand of the wicked: and will lay waste the land and
all that is therein by the hands of strangers, I the Lord have spoken
it.
30:13. Thus saith the Lord God: I will also destroy the idols, and I
will make an end of the idols of Memphis: and there shall: be no more a
prince of the land of Egypt and I will cause a terror in the land of
Egypt.
30:14. And I will destroy the land of Phatures, and will make a fire in
Taphnis, and will execute judgments in Alexandria.
Alexandria... In the Hebrew, No: which was the ancient name of that
city, which was afterwards rebuilt by Alexander the Great, and from his
name called Alexandria.
30:15. And I will pour out my indignation upon Pelusium the strength of
Egypt, and will cut off the multitude of Alexandria.
30:16. And I will make a fire in Egypt: Pelusium shall be in pain like a
woman in labour, and Alexandria shall be laid waste, and in Memphis
there shall be daily distresses.
30:17. The young men of Heliopolis, and of Bubastus shall fall by the
sword, and they themselves shall go into captivity.
30:18. And in Taphnis the day shall be darkened, when I shall break
there the sceptres of Egypt, and the pride of her power shall cease in
her: a cloud shall cover her, and her daughters shall be led into
captivity.
30:19. And I will execute judgments in Egypt: and they shall know that I
am the Lord.
30:20. And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first month, in
the seventh day of the month, that the word of the Lord came, me,
saying:
30:21. Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharao king of Egypt: and
behold it is not bound up, to be healed, to be tied up with clothes, and
swathed with linen, that it might recover strength, and hold the sword.
30:22. Therefore, thus saith the Lord God: Behold, I come against Pharao
king of Egypt, and I will break into pieces his strong arm, which is
already broken: and I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand:
30:23. And I will disperse Egypt among the nations, and scatter them
through the countries.
30:24. And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and will
put my sword in his hand: and I will break the arms of Pharao, and they
shall groan bitterly being slain before his face.
30:25. And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and the
arms of Pharao shall fall: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when
I shall have given my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he
shall have stretched it forth upon the land of Egypt.
30:26. And I will disperse Egypt among the nations, and will scatter
them through the countries, and they shall know that I am the Lord.
Ezechiel Chapter 31
The Assyrian empire fell for their pride: the Egyptian shall fall in
like manner.
31:1. And it came to pass, in the eleventh year, the third month the
first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
31:2. Son of man, speak to Pharao king of Egypt, and to his people: To
whom art thou like in thy greatness?
