30:1 And the word of Yehovah came to me,
saying,
30:2 Son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus saith Yehovah; Woe, woe [worth]
the day!
30:3 For the day of Yehovah is nigh, a day of cloud; it shall be the end of
the nations.
30:4 And the sword shall come upon the Egyptians, and there shall be tumult
in Ethiopia, and in Egypt [men] shall fall down slain together, and her
foundations shall fall.
30:5 Persians, and Cretans, and Lydians, and Libyans, and all the mixed
multitude, and they of the children of my covenant, shall fall by the sword
therein.
30:6 And the supports of Egypt shall fall; and the pride of her strength
shall come down from Magdol to Syene: they shall fall by the sword in it,
saith Yehovah.
30:7 And it shall be made desolate in the midst of desolate countries, and
their cities shall be [desolate] in the midst of desolate cities:
30:8 and they shall know that I am Yehovah, when I shall send fire upon
Egypt, and [when] all that help her shall be broken.
30:9 In that day shall messengers go forth hasting to destroy Ethiopia
utterly, and there shall be tumult among them in the day of Egypt: for,
behold it comes.
30:10 Thus saith he Lord Elohim; I will also destroy the multitude of the
Egyptians by the hand of Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon,
30:11 his [hand] and his people's; [they are] plagues sent forth from the
nations to destroy the land: and they all shall unsheathe their swords
against Egypt, and the land shall be filled with slain.
30:12 And I will make their rivers desolate, and will destroy the land and
the fulness of it by the hands of strangers: I Yehovah have spoken.
30:13 For thus saith Yehovah Elohim; I will also destroy the nobles from
Memphis, and the princes of Memphis out of the land of Egypt; and they shall
be no more.
30:14 And I will destroy the land of Phathore, and will send fire upon Tanis,
and will execute vengeance on Diospolis.
30:15 And I will pour out my wrath upon Sais the strength of Egypt, and will
destroy the multitude of Memphis.
30:16 And I will send fire upon Egypt; and Syene shall be sorely troubled;
and there shall be a breaking in Diospolis, and waters shall be poured out.
30:17 The youths of Heliopolis and Bubastum shall fall by the sword, and the
women shall go into captivity.
30:18 And the day shall be darkened in Taphnae, when I have broken there the
scepters of Egypt: and the pride of her strength shall perish there: and a
cloud shall cover her, and her daughters shall be taken prisoners.
30:19 And I will execute judgment on Egypt; and they shall know that I am
Yehovah.
30:20 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first month, on the
seventh [day] of the month, the word of Yehovah came to me, saying,
30:21 Son of man, I have broken the arms ofPharaoh, king of Egypt; and,
behold, it has not been bound up to be healed, to have a plaster put upon
it, [or] to be strengthened to lay hold of the sword.
30:22 Therefore this saith Yehovah Elohim; Behold, I am againstPharaoh king of
Egypt, and I will break his strong and outstretched arms, and will smite
down his sword out of his hand.
30:23 And I will disperse the Egyptians among the nations, and will utterly
scatter them among the countries.
30:24 And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and put my
sword into his hand: and he shall bring it upon Egypt, and shall take her
plunder and seize her spoils.
30:25 Yea, I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and the arms
ofPharaoh shall fail: and they shall know that I am Yehovah, when I have
put my sword into the hands of the king of Babylon, and he shall stretch it
out over the land of Egypt.
30:26 And I will disperse the Egyptians among the nations, and utterly
scatter them among the countries; and they all shall know that I am the
Lord. |
30:1 The word of Yehovah came again unto
me, saying,
30:2 Son of man, prophesy and say, Thus saith Yehovah GOD; Howl ye, Woe
worth the day!
30:3 For the day is near, even the day of Yehovah is near, a cloudy day; it
shall be the time of the heathen.
30:4 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.
30:5 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.
30:6 Thus saith Yehovah; 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 Yehovah GOD.
30:7 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.
30:8 And they shall know that I am Yehovah, when I have set a fire in
Egypt, and when all her helpers shall be destroyed.
30:9 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.
30:10 Thus saith Yehovah GOD; I will also make the multitude of Egypt to
cease by the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon.
30:11 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.
30:12 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 Yehovah have spoken it.
30:13 Thus saith Yehovah 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.
30:14 And I will make Pathros desolate, and will set fire in Zoan, and will
execute judgments in No.
30:15 And I will pour my fury upon Sin, the strength of Egypt; and I will
cut off the multitude of No.
30:16 And I will set fire in Egypt: Sin shall have great pain, and No shall
be rent asunder, and Noph shall have distresses daily.
30:17 The young men of Aven and of Pibeseth shall fall by the sword: and
these cities shall go into captivity.
30:18 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.
30:19 Thus will I execute judgments in Egypt: and they shall know that I am
Yehovah.
30:20 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first month, in the
seventh day of the month, that the word of Yehovah came unto me, saying,
30:21 Son of man, I have broken the arm ofPharaohh 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.
30:22 Therefore thus saith Yehovah GOD; Behold, I am againstPharaohh 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.
30:23 And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse
them through the countries.
30:24 And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and put my
sword in his hand: but I will breakPharaohh's arms, and he shall groan
before him with the groanings of a deadly wounded man.
30:25 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 Yehovah, 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.
30:26 And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and disperse them
among the countries; and they shall know that I am Yehovah. |
