2 Son of man prophesy and say Thus saith the Lord GOD Howl ye Woe worth the day

3 For the day is near even the day of the LORD is near a cloudy day it shall be the time of the heathen

4 And the sword shall come upon Egypt and great pain shall be in Ethiopia when the slain shall fall in Egypt and they shall take away her multitude and her foundations shall be broken down

5 Ethiopia and Libya and Lydia and all the mingled people and Chub and the men of the land that is in league shall fall with them by the sword

6 Thus saith the LORD They also that uphold Egypt shall fall and the pride of her power shall come down from the tower of Syene shall they fall in it by the sword saith the Lord GOD

7 And they shall be desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate and her cities shall be in the midst of the cities that are wasted

8 And they shall know that I am the LORD when I have set a fire in Egypt and when all her helpers shall be destroyed

9 In that day shall messengers go forth from me in ships to make the careless Ethiopians afraid and great pain shall come upon them as in the day of Egypt for lo it cometh

10 Thus saith the Lord GOD I will also make the multitude of Egypt to cease by the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon

11 He and his people with him the terrible of the nations shall be brought to destroy the land and they shall draw their swords against Egypt and fill the land with the slain

12 And I will make the rivers dry and sell the land into the hand of the wicked and I will make the land waste and all that is therein by the hand of strangers I the LORD have spoken it

13 Thus saith the Lord GOD I will also destroy the idols and I will cause their images to cease out of Noph and there shall be no more a prince of the land of Egypt and I will put a fear in the land of Egypt

14 And I will make Pathros desolate and will set fire in Zoan and will execute judgments in No

15 And I will pour my fury upon Sin the strength of Egypt and I will cut off the multitude of No

16 And I will set fire in Egypt Sin shall have great pain and No shall be rent asunder and Noph shall have distresses daily

17 The young men of Aven and of Pibeseth shall fall by the sword and these cities shall go into captivity

18 At Tehaphnehes also the day shall be darkened when I shall break there the yokes of Egypt and the pomp of her strength shall cease in her as for her a cloud shall cover her and her daughters shall go into captivity

19 Thus will I execute judgments in Egypt and they shall know that I am the LORD

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 unto me saying 21 Son of man I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt and lo it shall not be bound up to be healed __ to put a roller to bind it to make it strong to hold the sword 22 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD Behold I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt and will break his arms the strong and that which was broken and I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand 23 And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations and will disperse them through the countries 24 And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon and put my sword in his hand but I will break Pharaoh's arms and he shall groan before him with the groanings of a deadly wounded man 25 But I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon and the arms of Pharaoh shall fall down and they shall know that I am the LORD when I shall put my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon and he shall stretch it out upon the land of Egypt 26 And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations and disperse them among the countries and they shall know that I am the LORD
