EZE-29:1 In the tenth year, in the tenth [month], in the twelfth
[day] of the month, the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
EZE-29:2 Son of man, set thy face against Pharaoh king of Egypt,
and prophesy against him, and against all Egypt:
EZE-29:3 Speak, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I [am]
against thee, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great dragon that lieth
in the midst of his rivers, which hath said, My river [is] mine
own, and I have made [it] for myself.
EZE-29:4 But I will put hooks in thy jaws, and I will cause the
fish of thy rivers to stick unto thy scales, and I will bring
thee up out of the midst of thy rivers, and all the fish of thy
rivers shall stick unto thy scales.
EZE-29:5 And I will leave thee [thrown] into the wilderness,
thee and all the fish of thy rivers: thou shalt fall upon the
open fields; thou shalt not be brought together, nor gathered: I
have given thee for meat to the beasts of the field and to the
fowls of the heaven.
EZE-29:6 And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I [am]
the LORD, because they have been a staff of reed to the house of
Israel.
EZE-29:7 When they took hold of thee by thy hand, thou didst
break, and rend all their shoulder: and when they leaned upon
thee, thou brakest, and madest all their loins to be at a stand.
EZE-29:8 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will bring
a sword upon thee, and cut off man and beast out of thee.
EZE-29:9 And the land of Egypt shall be desolate and waste; and
they shall know that I [am] the LORD: because he hath said, The
river [is] mine, and I have made [it].
EZE-29:10 Behold, therefore I [am] against thee, and against thy
rivers, and I will make the land of Egypt utterly waste [and]
desolate, from the tower of Syene even unto the border of
Ethiopia.
EZE-29:11 No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of
beast shall pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty
years.
EZE-29:12 And I will make the land of Egypt desolate in the
midst of the countries [that are] desolate, and her cities among
the cities [that are] laid waste shall be desolate forty years:
and I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will
disperse them through the countries.
EZE-29:13 Yet thus saith the Lord GOD; At the end of forty years
will I gather the Egyptians from the people whither they were
scattered:
EZE-29:14 And I will bring again the captivity of Egypt, and
will cause them to return [into] the land of Pathros, into the
land of their habitation; and they shall be there a base kingdom.
EZE-29:15 It shall be the basest of the kingdoms; neither shall
it exalt itself any more above the nations: for I will diminish
them, that they shall no more rule over the nations.
EZE-29:16 And it shall be no more the confidence of the house of
Israel, which bringeth [their] iniquity to remembrance, when
they shall look after them: but they shall know that I [am] the
Lord GOD.
EZE-29:17 And it came to pass in the seven and twentieth year,
in the first [month], in the first [day] of the month, the word
of the LORD came unto me, saying,
EZE-29:18 Son of man, Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon caused his
army to serve a great service against Tyrus: every head [was]
made bald, and every shoulder [was] peeled: yet had he no wages,
nor his army, for Tyrus, for the service that he had served
against it:
EZE-29:19 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will give
the land of Egypt unto Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon; and he
shall take her multitude, and take her spoil, and take her prey;
and it shall be the wages for his army.
EZE-29:20 I have given him the land of Egypt [for] his labour
wherewith he served against it, because they wrought for me,
saith the Lord GOD.
EZE-29:21 In that day will I cause the horn of the house of
Israel to bud forth, and I will give thee the opening of the
mouth in the midst of them; and they shall know that I [am] the
LORD.
