Ezekiel:30:1-11
Seeker Overlay ON
*
The word of the LORD came again unto me ,
saying ,
*
Son of man ,
prophesy and say ,
Thus saith the Lord GOD ;
Howl ye ,
Woe worth the day !
*
For the day is near ,
even the day of the LORD is near ,
a cloudy day ;
it shall be the time of the heathen .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
Thus saith the Lord GOD ;
I will also make the multitude of Egypt to cease by the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon .
*
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 .
