Book 26 Ezekiel Chapter 029

 

029:001In the tenth year, in the tenth month, in the twelfth day of
the month, the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

 

029:002Son of man, set thy face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and
prophesy against him, and against all Egypt:

 

029:003Speak, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against
thee, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great dragon that lieth in
the midst of his rivers, which hath said, My river is mine
own, and I have made it for myself.

 

029:004But I will put hooks in thy jaws, and I will cause the fish of
thy rivers to stick unto thy scales, and I will bring thee up
out of the midst of thy rivers, and all the fish of thy rivers
shall stick unto thy scales.

 

029:005And I will leave thee thrown into the wilderness, thee and all
the fish of thy rivers: thou shalt fall upon the open fields;
thou shalt not be brought together, nor gathered: I have given
thee for meat to the beasts of the field and to the fowls of
the heaven.

 

029:006And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I am the
LORD, because they have been a staff of reed to the house of
Israel.

 

029:007When they took hold of thee by thy hand, thou didst break, and
rend all their shoulder: and when they leaned upon thee, thou
brakest, and madest all their loins to be at a stand.

 

029:008Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will bring a
sword upon thee, and cut off man and beast out of thee.

 

029:009And the land of Egypt shall be desolate and waste; and they
shall know that I am the LORD: because he hath said, The river
is mine, and I have made it.

 

029:010Behold, therefore I am against thee, and against thy rivers,
and I will make the land of Egypt utterly waste and desolate,
from the tower of Syene even unto the border of Ethiopia.

 

029:011No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of beast shall
pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty years.

 

029:012And I will make the land of Egypt desolate in the midst of the
countries that are desolate, and her cities among the cities
that are laid waste shall be desolate forty years: and I will
scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse
them through the countries.

 

029:013Yet thus saith the Lord GOD; At the end of forty years will I
gather the Egyptians from the people whither they were
scattered:

 

029:014And I will bring again the captivity of Egypt, and will cause
them to return into the land of Pathros, into the land of
their habitation; and they shall be there a base kingdom.

 

029:015It shall be the basest of the kingdoms; neither shall it exalt
itself any more above the nations: for I will diminish them,
that they shall no more rule over the nations.

 

029:016And it shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel,
which bringeth their iniquity to remembrance, when they shall
look after them: but they shall know that I am the Lord GOD.

 

029:017And it came to pass in the seven and twentieth year, in the
first month, in the first day of the month, the word of the
LORD came unto me, saying,

 

029:018Son of man, Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon caused his army to
serve a great service against Tyrus: every head was made bald,
and every shoulder was peeled: yet had he no wages, nor his
army, for Tyrus, for the service that he had served against
it:

 

029:019Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will give the
land of Egypt unto Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon; and he
shall take her multitude, and take her spoil, and take her
prey; and it shall be the wages for his army.

 

029:020I have given him the land of Egypt for his labour wherewith he
served against it, because they wrought for me, saith the Lord
GOD.

 

029:021In that day will I cause the horn of the house of Israel to
bud forth, and I will give thee the opening of the mouth in
the midst of them; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
