ylt @Ezekiel:29:1 @In the tenth year , in the tenth [month ], in the twelfth of the month , hath a word of Jehovah been unto me , saying , ylt @Ezekiel:29:2 @'Son of man , set thy face against Pharaoh king of Egypt , and prophesy concerning him , and concerning Egypt -- all of it . ylt @Ezekiel:29:3 @Speak , and thou hast said : Thus said the Lord Jehovah : Lo , I [am ] against thee , Pharaoh king of Egypt ! The great dragon that is crouching in the midst of his floods , Who hath said , My flood [is ] my own , And I -- I have made it [for ] myself . ylt @Ezekiel:29:4 @And I have put hooks in thy jaws , And I have caused the fish of thy floods to cleave to thy scales , And I have caused thee to come up from the midst of thy floods , And every fish of thy floods to thy scales doth cleave . ylt @Ezekiel:29:5 @And I have left thee in the wilderness , Thou and every fish of thy floods , On the face of the field thou dost fall , Thou art not gathered nor assembled , To the beast of the earth and to the fowl of the heavens I have given thee for food . ylt @Ezekiel:29:6 @And known have all inhabitants of Egypt That I [am ] Jehovah , Because of their being a staff of reed to the house of Israel . ylt @Ezekiel:29:7 @In their taking hold of thee by thy hand , -- thou art crushed , And hast rent to them all the shoulder , And in their leaning on thee thou art broken , And hast caused all their thighs to stand . ylt @Ezekiel:29:8 @Therefore , thus said the Lord Jehovah : Lo , I am bringing in against thee a sword , And have cut off from thee man and beast . ylt @Ezekiel:29:9 @And the land of Egypt hath been for a desolation and a waste , And they have known that I [am ] Jehovah . Because he said : The flood [is ] mine , and I made [it ]. ylt @Ezekiel:29:10 @Therefore , lo , I [am ] against thee , and against thy floods , And have given the land of Egypt for wastes , A waste , a desolation , from Migdol to Syene , And unto the border of Cush . ylt @Ezekiel:29:11 @Not pass over into it doth a foot of man , Yea , the foot of beast doth not pass into it , Nor is it inhabited forty years . ylt @Ezekiel:29:12 @And I have made the land of Egypt a desolation , In the midst of desolate lands , And its cities , in the midst of waste cities , Are a desolation forty years , And I have scattered the Egyptians among nations , And I have dispersed them through lands . ylt @Ezekiel:29:13 @But thus said the Lord Jehovah : At the end of forty years I gather the Egyptians Out of the peoples whither they have been scattered , ylt @Ezekiel:29:14 @And I have turned back [to ] the captivity of Egypt , And I have brought them back [To ] the land of Pathros , to the land of their birth , And they have been there a low kingdom . ylt @Ezekiel:29:15 @Of the kingdoms it is lowest , And it lifteth not up itself any more above the nations , And I have made them few , So as not to rule among nations . ylt @Ezekiel:29:16 @And it is no more to the house of Israel for a confidence , Bringing iniquity to remembrance , By their turning after them , And they have known that I [am ] the Lord Jehovah .' ylt @Ezekiel:29:17 @And it cometh to pass , in the twenty and seventh year , in the first [month ], in the first of the month , hath a word of Jehovah been unto me , saying : ylt @Ezekiel:29:18 @'Son of man , Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon , Hath caused his force to serve a great service against Tyre , Every head [is ] bald -- every shoulder peeled , And reward he had none , nor his force , out of Tyre , For the service that he served against it . ylt @Ezekiel:29:19 @Therefore , thus said the Lord Jehovah , Lo , I am giving to Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon the land of Egypt , And he hath taken away its store , And hath taken its spoil , and taken its prey , And it hath been a reward to his force . ylt @Ezekiel:29:20 @His wage for which he laboured I have given to him , The land of Egypt -- in that they wrought for Me , An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah . ylt @Ezekiel:29:21 @In that day I cause to shoot up a horn to the house of Israel , And to thee I give an opening of the mouth in their midst , And they have known that I [am ] Jehovah !'
