EZEKIEL ยท Chapter 32
32:1 And it came to pass in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month,
in the first day of the month, that the word of the LORD came unto me,
saying,
32:2 Son of man, take up a lamentation for Pharaoh king of Egypt, and
say unto him, You are like a young lion of the nations, and you are as
a whale in the seas: and you came forth with your rivers, and troubled
the waters with your feet, and fouled their rivers.
32:3 Thus says the Lord GOD; I will therefore spread out my net over
you with a company of many people; and they shall bring you up in my net.
32:4 Then will I leave you upon the land, I will cast you forth upon
the open field, and will cause all the fowls of the heaven to remain upon
you, and I will fill the beasts of the whole earth with you.
32:5 And I will lay your flesh upon the mountains, and fill the valleys
with your height.
32:6 I will also water with your blood the land wherein you swim, even
to the mountains; and the rivers shall be full of you.
32:7 And when I shall put you out, I will cover the heaven, and make
the stars thereof dark; I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon
shall not give her light.
32:8 All the bright lights of heaven will I make dark over you, and
set darkness upon your land, says the Lord GOD.
32:9 I will also vex the hearts of many people, when I shall bring
your destruction among the nations, into the countries which you have not
known.
32:10 Yea, I will make many people amazed at you, and their kings shall
be horribly afraid for you, when I shall brandish my sword before them;
and they shall tremble at every moment, every man for his own life, in
the day of your fall.
32:11 For thus says the Lord GOD; The sword of the king of Babylon
shall come upon you.
32:12 By the swords of the mighty will I cause your multitude to fall,
the terrible of the nations, all of them: and they shall spoil the pomp
of Egypt, and all the multitude thereof shall be destroyed.
32:13 I will destroy also all the beasts thereof from beside the great
waters; neither shall the foot of man trouble them any more, nor the hoofs
of beasts trouble them.
32:14 Then will I make their waters deep, and cause their rivers to
run like oil, says the Lord GOD.
32:15 When I shall make the land of Egypt desolate, and the country
shall be destitute of that whereof it was full, when I shall strike all
them that dwell therein, then shall they know that I am the LORD.
32:16 This is the lamentation wherewith they shall lament her: the
daughters of the nations shall lament her: they shall lament for her, even
for Egypt, and for all her multitude, says the Lord GOD.
32:17 It came to pass also in the twelfth year, in the fifteenth day
of the month, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
32:18 Son of man, wail for the multitude of Egypt, and cast them down,
even her, and the daughters of the famous nations, unto the nether parts
of the earth, with them that go down into the pit.
32:19 Whom do you pass in beauty? go down, and be you laid with the
uncircumcised.
32:20 They shall fall in the midst of them that are slain by the sword:
she is delivered to the sword: draw her and all her multitudes.
32:21 The strong among the mighty shall speak to him out of the midst
of hell with them that help him: they are gone down, they lie uncircumcised,
slain by the sword.
32:22 Asshur is there and all her company: his graves are about him:
all of them slain, fallen by the sword:
32:23 Whose graves are set in the sides of the pit, and her company
is round about her grave: all of them slain, fallen by the sword, which
caused terror in the land of the living.
32:24 There is Elam and all her multitude round about her grave, all
of them slain, fallen by the sword, which are gone down uncircumcised into
the nether parts of the earth, which caused their terror in the land of
the living; yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the
pit.
32:25 They have set her a bed in the midst of the slain with all her
multitude: her graves are round about him: all of them uncircumcised, slain
by the sword: though their terror was caused in the land of the living,
yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit: he is
put in the midst of them that be slain.
32:26 There is Meshech, Tubal, and all her multitude: her graves are
round about him: all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword, though
they caused their terror in the land of the living.
32:27 And they shall not lie with the mighty that are fallen of the
uncircumcised, which are gone down to hell with their weapons of war: and
they have laid their swords under their heads, but their iniquities shall
be upon their bones, though they were the terror of the mighty in the land
of the living.
32:28 Yea, you shall be broken in the midst of the uncircumcised, and
shall lie with them that are slain with the sword.
32:29 There is Edom, her kings, and all her princes, which with their
might are laid by them that were slain by the sword: they shall lie with
the uncircumcised, and with them that go down to the pit.
32:30 There be the princes of the north, all of them, and all the Zidonians,
which are gone down with the slain; with their terror they are ashamed
of their might; and they lie uncircumcised with them that be slain by the
sword, and bear their shame with them that go down to the pit.
32:31 Pharaoh shall see them, and shall be comforted over all his multitude,
even Pharaoh and all his army slain by the sword, says the Lord GOD.
32:32 For I have caused my terror in the land of the living: and he
shall be laid in the midst of the uncircumcised with them that are slain
with the sword, even Pharaoh and all his multitude, says the Lord GOD.
