CHAPTER 32
And it came to pass in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, in the first
day
of the month,
that
the
word of the L
ORD
came unto me, saying,
2
Son of man, take up a lamentation for Pharaoh king of
Egypt, and say unto him, Thou art like a young lion of the nations, and thou
art
as a whale in the
seas: and thou camest forth with thy rivers, and troubledst the waters with thy feet, and fouledst
their rivers.
3
Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will therefore spread out my net over thee with a company
of many people; and they shall bring thee up in my net.
4
Then will I leave thee upon the land, I
will cast thee forth upon the open field, and will cause all the fowls of the heaven to remain upon
thee, and I will fill the beasts of the whole earth with thee.
5
And I will lay thy flesh upon the
mountains, and fill the valleys with thy height.
6
I will also water with thy blood the land wherein
thou swimmest,
even
to the mountains; and the rivers shall be full of thee.
7
And when I shall put
thee out, I will cover the heaven, and make the stars thereof dark; I will cover the sun with a cloud,
and the moon shall not give her light.
8
All the bright lights of heaven will I make dark over thee,
and set darkness upon thy land, saith the Lord GOD.
9
I will also vex the hearts of many people,
when I shall bring thy destruction among the nations, into the countries which thou hast not known.
10
Yea, I will make many people amazed at thee, and their kings shall be horribly afraid for thee,
when I shall brandish my sword before them; and they shall tremble at
every
moment, every man
for his own life, in the day of thy fall.
11
For thus saith the Lord GOD; The sword of the king of Babylon shall come upon thee.
12
By
the swords of the mighty will I cause thy multitude to fall, the terrible of the nations, all of them:
and they shall spoil the pomp of Egypt, and all the multitude thereof shall be destroyed.
13
I will
destroy also all the beasts thereof from beside the great waters; neither shall the foot of man trouble
them any more, nor the hoofs of beasts trouble them.
14
Then will I make their waters deep, and
cause their rivers to run like oil, saith the Lord GOD.
15
When I shall make the land of Egypt
desolate, and the country shall be destitute of that whereof it was full, when I shall smite all them
that dwell therein, then shall they know that I
am
the L
ORD
.
16
This
is
the lamentation wherewith
they shall lament her: the daughters of the nations shall lament her: they shall lament for her,
even
for Egypt, and for all her multitude, saith the Lord GOD.
17
It came to pass also in the twelfth year, in the fifteenth day of the month,
that
the word of the
L
ORD
came unto me, saying,
18
Son of man, wail for the multitude of Egypt, and cast them down,
even
her, and the daughters of the famous nations, unto the nether parts of the earth, with them that
go down into the pit.
19
Whom dost thou pass in beauty? go down, and be thou laid with the
uncircumcised.
20
They shall fall in the midst of
them that are
slain by the sword: she is delivered
to the sword: draw her and all her multitudes.
21
The strong among the mighty shall speak to him
out of the midst of hell with them that help him: they are gone down, they lie uncircumcised, slain
by the sword.
22
Asshur
is
there and all her company: his graves
are
about him: all of them slain,
fallen by the sword:
23
Whose graves are set in the sides of the pit, and her company is round about
her grave: all of them slain, fallen by the sword, which caused terror in the land of the living.
