Ezekiel 29:2-21

29:2

Son
<01121>

of man
<0120>_,

set
<07760> (8798)

thy face
<06440>

against Pharaoh
<06547>

king
<04428>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

and prophesy
<05012> (8734)

against him, and against all Egypt
<04714>_:

29:3

Speak
<01696> (8761)_,

and say
<0559> (8804)_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_;

Behold, I [am] against thee, Pharaoh
<06547>

king
<04428>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

the great
<01419>

dragon
<08577>

that lieth
<07257> (8802)

in the midst
<08432>

of his rivers
<02975>_,

which hath said
<0559> (8804)_,

My river
<02975>

[is] mine own, and I have made
<06213> (8804)

[it] for myself.

29:4

But I will put
<05414> (8804)

hooks
<02397> (8676) <02397>

in thy jaws
<03895>_,

and I will cause the fish
<01710>

of thy rivers
<02975>

to stick
<01692> (8689)

unto thy scales
<07193>_,

and I will bring thee up
<05927> (8689)

out of the midst
<08432>

of thy rivers
<02975>_,

and all the fish
<01710>

of thy rivers
<02975>

shall stick
<01692> (8799)

unto thy scales
<07193>_.

29:5

And I will leave
<05203> (8804)

thee [thrown] into the wilderness
<04057>_,

thee and all the fish
<01710>

of thy rivers
<02975>_:

thou shalt fall
<05307> (8799)

upon the open
<06440>

fields
<07704>_;

thou shalt not be brought together
<0622> (8735)_,

nor gathered
<06908> (8735)_:

I have given
<05414> (8804)

thee for meat
<0402>

to the beasts
<02416>

of the field
<0776>

and to the fowls
<05775>

of the heaven
<08064>_.

{open...: Heb. face of the field}

29:6

And all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of Egypt
<04714>

shall know
<03045> (8804)

that I [am] the LORD
<03068>_,

because they have been a staff
<04938>

of reed
<07070>

to the house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>_.

29:7

When they took hold
<08610> (8800)

of thee by thy hand
<03709>_,

thou didst break
<07533> (8735)_,

and rend
<01234> (8804)

all their shoulder
<03802>_:

and when they leaned
<08172> (8736)

upon thee, thou brakest
<07665> (8735)_,

and madest all their loins
<04975>

to be at a stand
<05976> (8689)_.

29:8

Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_;

Behold, I will bring
<0935> (8688)

a sword
<02719>

upon thee, and cut off
<03772> (8689)

man
<0120>

and beast
<0929>

out of thee.

29:9

And the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>

shall be desolate
<08077>

and waste
<02723>_;

and they shall know
<03045> (8804)

that I [am] the LORD
<03068>_:

because he hath said
<0559> (8804)_,

The river
<02975>

[is] mine, and I have made
<06213> (8804)

[it].

29:10

Behold, therefore I [am] against thee, and against thy rivers
<02975>_,

and I will make
<05414> (8804)

the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>

utterly
<02721>

waste
<02723>

[and] desolate
<08077>_,

from the tower
<04024>

of Syene
<05482>

even unto the border
<01366>

of Ethiopia
<03568>_.

{utterly...: Heb. wastes of waste} {from...: or, from Migdol to Syene} {Syene: Heb. Seveneh}

29:11

No foot
<07272>

of man
<0120>

shall pass through
<05674> (8799)

it, nor foot
<07272>

of beast
<0929>

shall pass through
<05674> (8799)

it, neither shall it be inhabited
<03427> (8799)

forty
<0705>

years
<08141>_.

29:12

And I will make
<05414> (8804)

the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>

desolate
<08077>

in the midst
<08432>

of the countries
<0776>

[that are] desolate
<08074> (8737)_,

and her cities
<05892>

among
<08432>

the cities
<05892>

[that are] laid waste
<02717> (8716)

shall be desolate
<08077>

forty
<0705>

years
<08141>_:

and I will scatter
<06327> (8689)

the Egyptians
<04714>

among the nations
<01471>_,

and will disperse
<02219> (8765)

them through the countries
<0776>_.

29:13

Yet thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_;

At the end
<07093>

of forty
<0705>

years
<08141>

will I gather
<06908> (8762)

the Egyptians
<04714>

from the people
<05971>

whither they were scattered
<06327> (8738)_:

29:14

And I will bring again
<07725> (8804)

the captivity
<07622>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

and will cause them to return
<07725> (8689)

[into] the land
<0776>

of Pathros
<06624>_,

into the land
<0776>

of their habitation
<04351>_;

and they shall be there a base
<08217>

kingdom
<04467>_.

{habitation: or, birth} {base: Heb. low}

29:15

It shall be the basest
<08217>

of the kingdoms
<04467>_;

neither shall it exalt
<05375> (8691)

itself any more above the nations
<01471>_:

for I will diminish
<04591> (8689)

them, that they shall no more rule
<07287> (8800)

over the nations
<01471>_.

29:16

And it shall be no more the confidence
<04009>

of the house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>_,

which bringeth
<02142> (0)

[their] iniquity
<05771>

to remembrance
<02142> (8688)_,

when they shall look
<06437> (8800)

after
<0310>

them: but they shall know
<03045> (8804)

that I [am] the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_.

29:17

And it came to pass in the seven
<07651>

and twentieth
<06242>

year
<08141>_,

in the first
<07223>

[month], in the first
<0259>

[day] of the month
<02320>_,

the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

came unto me, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

29:18

Son
<01121>

of man
<0120>_,

Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>

king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

caused
<05647> (0)

his army
<02428>

to serve
<05647> (8689)

a great
<01419>

service
<05656>

against Tyrus
<06865>_:

every head
<07218>

[was] made bald
<07139> (8716)_,

and every shoulder
<03802>

[was] peeled
<04803> (8803)_:

yet had he no wages
<07939>_,

nor his army
<02428>_,

for Tyrus
<06865>_,

for the service
<05656>

that he had served
<05647> (8804)

against it:

29:19

Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_;

Behold, I will give
<05414> (8802)

the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>

unto Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>

king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>_;

and he shall take
<05375> (8804)

her multitude
<01995>_,

and take
<07997> (8804)

her spoil
<07998>_,

and take
<0962> (8804)

her prey
<0957>_;

and it shall be the wages
<07939>

for his army
<02428>_.

{take her spoil...: Heb. spoil her spoil, and prey her prey}

29:20

I have given
<05414> (8804)

him the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>

[for] his labour
<06468>

wherewith he served
<05647> (8804)

against it, because they wrought
<06213> (8804)

for me, saith
<05002> (8803)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_.

{for his...: or, for his hire}

29:21

In that day
<03117>

will I cause
<06779> (0)

the horn
<07161>

of the house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>

to bud forth
<06779> (8686)_,

and I will give
<05414> (8799)

thee the opening
<06610>

of the mouth
<06310>

in the midst
<08432>

of them; and they shall know
<03045> (8804)

that I [am] the LORD
<03068>_.
