Book 14 : NEVIIM - EZEKIEL - Chapter 030
30:001
And the word of HaShem came unto me, saying
30:002
'Son of man, prophesy, and say: Thus saith the L-rd GOD:
wail ye: Woe worth the day
30:003
For the day is near, even the day of HaShem is near, a day
of clouds, it shall be the time of the nations
30:004
And a sword shall come upon Egypt, and convulsion shall be
in Ethiopia, when the slain shall fall in Egypt; and they shall take away her
abundance, and her foundation shall be broken down
30:005
Ethiopia, and Put, and Lud, and all the mingled people, and
Cub, and the children of the land that is in league, shall fall with them by the
sword
30:006
Thus saith HaShem: they also that uphold Egypt shall fall,
and the pride of her power shall come down; from Migdol to Syene shall they fall
in it by the sword, saith the L-rd GOD
30:007
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
30:008
And they shall know that I am HaShem, when I have set a
fire in Egypt, and all her helpers are destroyed
30:009
In that day shall messengers go forth from before Me in
ships to make the confident Ethiopians afraid; and there shall come convulsion
upon them in the day of Egypt; for, lo, it cometh
30:010
Thus saith the L-rd GOD: I will also make the multitude of
Egypt to cease, by the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon
30:011
He and his people with him, the terrible of the nations,
shall be brought in to destroy the land; and they shall draw their swords
against Egypt, and fill the land with the slain
30:012
And I will make the rivers dry, and will give the land
over into the hand of evil men; and I will make the land desolate, and all that
is therein, by the hand of strangers; I HaShem have spoken it
30:013
Thus saith the L-rd GOD: I will also destroy the idols,
and I will cause the things of nought to cease from Noph; and there shall be no
more a prince out of the land of Egypt; and I will put a fear in the land of
Egypt
30:014
And I will make Pathros desolate, and will set a fire in
Zoan, and will execute judgments in No
30:015
And I will pour My fury upon Sin, the stronghold of Egypt;
and I will cut off the multitude of No
30:016
And I will set a fire in Egypt; Sin shall be in great
convulsion, and No shall be rent asunder; and in Noph shall come adversaries in
the day-time
30:017
The young men of Aven and of Pi-beseth shall fall by the
sword; and these cities shall go into captivity
30:018
At Tehaphnehes also the day shall withdraw itself, when I
shall break there the yokes of Egypt, and the pride of her power shall cease in
her; as for her, a cloud shall cover her, and her daughters shall go into
captivity
30:019
Thus will I execute judgments in Egypt; and they shall
know that I am HaShem.
30:020
And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first
month, in the seventh day of the month, that the word of HaShem came unto me,
saying
30:021
'Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of
Egypt; and, lo, it hath not been bound up to be healed, to put a roller, that it
be bound up and wax strong, that it hold the sword
30:022
Therefore thus saith the L-rd 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
30:023
And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and
will disperse them through the countries
30:024
And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and
put My sword in his hand; but I will break the arms of Pharaoh, and he shall
groan before him with the groanings of a deadly wounded man
30:025
And I will hold up the arms of the king of Babylon, and
the arms of Pharaoh shall fall down; and they shall know that I am HaShem, 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
30:026
And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and
disperse them through the countries; and they shall know that I am HaShem.
