Chapter 30
Ezek LEB 30:1  And the word of Yahweh ⌞came⌟ to me, ⌞saying⌟,
Ezek LEB 30:2  “Son of man, prophesy, and you must say, ‘thus says the Lord Yahweh: “Wail, alas! For the day!
Ezek LEB 30:3  For a day is near; indeed, a day is near for Yahweh. A day of cloud, a time of the nations it will be.
Ezek LEB 30:4  And a sword will come in Egypt, and anguish will be in Cush, at the falling of the slain in Egypt. And they will take its wealth, and its foundation will be demolished.
Ezek LEB 30:5  Cush and Put and Lud and all of Arabia and Kub and the people of the land of the treaty with them—by the sword they will fall.”
Ezek LEB 30:6  Thus says Yahweh: “And the supporters of Egypt will fall, and the majesty of its strength will go down from Migdol to Syene; by the sword they will fall in it,” ⌞declares⌟ the Lord Yahweh.
Ezek LEB 30:7  “And they will be desolate in the midst of desolate countries, and its cities will be in the midst of ruined cities.
Ezek LEB 30:8  And they will know that I am Yahweh when I put my fire in Egypt, and all of its helpers are broken.
Ezek LEB 30:9  On that day messengers will go down from ⌞before me⌟ in the ships to terrify unsuspecting Cush, and anguish will be in them on the day of Egypt; for look, it is coming!”
Ezek LEB 30:10  Thus says the Lord Yahweh: “And I will put an end to the crowds of Egypt by the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon.
Ezek LEB 30:11  He and his people with him, the most ruthless of nations, will be brought to destroy the land. And they will draw their swords against Egypt, and they will fill the land with the slain,
Ezek LEB 30:12  and I will make the Nile streams dry land, and I will sell the land into the hand of bad people, and I will lay waste the land and its fullness by the hand of strangers. I, Yahweh, I have spoken.”
Ezek LEB 30:13  Thus says the Lord Yahweh: “And I will destroy the idols, and I will put an end to the worthless idols from Memphis. And there will ⌞no longer be⌟ a prince from the land of Egypt, and I will put fear in the land of Egypt.
Ezek LEB 30:14  And I will lay waste Pathros, and I will set fire in Zoan, and I will execute judgments in No.
Ezek LEB 30:15  I will pour out my rage over Sin, the stronghold of Egypt, and I will cut off the crowd of No.
Ezek LEB 30:16  And I will set fire in Egypt, certainly Sin will writhe, and No will be breached, and Memphis will face enemies ⌞daily⌟.
Ezek LEB 30:17  The young men of On and Pi Beseth will fall by the sword, and they will go into captivity.
Ezek LEB 30:18  And at Tahpanhes the day will become dark when I break the yoke of Egypt, and in it the majesty of its strength will come to an end. A cloud will cover it, and its daughters will go into captivity.
Ezek LEB 30:19  And I will execute judgments in Egypt, and they will know that I am Yahweh.”
Ezek LEB 30:20  ⌞And then⌟ ⌞in the eleventh⌟ year, in the first month, on the seventh day of the month, the word of Yahweh ⌞came⌟ to me, ⌞saying⌟,
Ezek LEB 30:21  “Son of man, the arm of Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, I have broken. And look, it has not been bound up for giving of a remedy, or for the placing of a splint to bind it up to make it strong to take hold of the sword.”
Ezek LEB 30:22  Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh: “Look! I am against Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and I will break his strong arm and the broken arm, and I will let the sword fall from his hand.
Ezek LEB 30:23  And I will scatter Egypt among the nations, and I will disperse them among the countries.
Ezek LEB 30:24  And I will strengthen the arm of the king of Babylon, and I will give my sword into his hand, and I will break the arms of Pharaoh, and he will groan with the groaning of the mortally wounded ⌞before him⌟.
Ezek LEB 30:25  And I will strengthen the arm of the king of Babylon, and the arms of Pharaoh will fall. And they will know that I am Yahweh when I give my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will stretch it out to the land of Egypt.
Ezek LEB 30:26  And I will scatter Egypt among the nations, and I will disperse them into the countries, and they will know that I am Yahweh.”
