Ezekiel 32

1 And in the twelfth yeere in the twelfth moneth, and in the first day of the moneth, the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,

And it comes to pass, in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, on the first of the month, a word of YHWH has been to me, saying,

2 Sonne of man, take vp a lamentation for Pharaoh King of Egypt, and say vnto him, Thou art like a lyon of the nations and art as a dragon in the sea: thou castedst out thy riuers and troubledst the waters with thy feete, and stampedst in their riuers.

“Son of man, lift up a lamentation for Pharaoh king of Egypt, and you have said to him: You have been like a young lion of nations, And you [are] as a dragon in the seas, And you come forth with your flowings, And trouble the waters with your feet, And you foul their flowings.

3 Thus sayth the Lord God, I will therefore spread my net ouer thee with a great multitude of people, and they shall make thee come vp into my net.

Thus said Lord YHWH: And I have spread out My net for you, With an assembly of many peoples, And they have brought you up in My net.

4 Then will I leaue thee vpon the land, and I will cast thee vpon the open field, and I wil cause all the foules of the heauen to remaine vpon thee, and I will fill all the beastes of the field with thee.

And I have left you in the land, I cast you out on the face of the field, And I have caused every bird of the heavens to dwell on you, And have satisfied every beast of the earth with you.

5 And I will lay thy flesh vpon the mountaines, and fill the valleys with thine height.

And I have put your flesh on the mountains, And filled the valleys [with] your heap,

6 I will also water with thy blood the land wherein thou swimmest, euen to ye mountaines, and the riuers shall be full of thee.

And watered the land with your flowing, From your blood—to the mountains, And streams are filled with you.

7 And when I shall put thee out, I will couer the heauen, and make the starres thereof darke: I will couer the sunne with a cloude, and the moone shall not giue her light.

And in quenching you I have covered the heavens, And have made their stars black, I cover the sun with a cloud, And the moon does not cause its light to shine.

8 All the lightes of heauen will I make darke for thee, and bring darkenesse vpon thy lande, sayeth the Lord God.

I make all luminaries of light in the heavens black over you, And I have given darkness over your land, A declaration of Lord YHWH,

9 I will also trouble the heartes of many people, when I shall bring thy destruction among the nations and vpon the countries which thou hast not knowen.

And I have distressed the heart of many peoples, In My bringing in your destruction among nations, To lands that you have not known.

10 Yea, I will make many people amased at thee, and their Kings shalbe astonished with feare for thee, when I shall make my sworde to glitter against their faces, and they shall be afraide at euery moment: euery man for his owne life in the day of thy fall.

And I have made many peoples astonished at you, And their kings are afraid because of you with trembling, In My brandishing My sword before their faces, And they have trembled every moment, Each for his life—in the day of your fall.

11 For thus sayth the Lord God, The sworde of the King of Babel shall come vpon thee.

For thus said Lord YHWH: A sword of the king of Babylon enters you,

12 By the swordes of the mightie will I cause thy multitude to fall: they all shall be terrible nations, and they shall destroy the pompe of Egypt, and all the multitude thereof shalbe consumed.

I cause your multitude to fall by swords of the mighty, The terrible of nations—all of them, And they have spoiled the excellence of Egypt, And all her multitude has been destroyed.

13 I will destroy also all the beastes thereof from the great watersides, neither shall the foote of man trouble them any more, nor the hooues of beast trouble them.

And I have destroyed all her beasts, From beside many waters, And a foot of man does not trouble them anymore, Indeed, the hooves of beasts do not trouble them.

14 Then will I make their waters deepe, and cause their riuers to runne like oyle, sayeth the Lord God.

Then I cause their waters to sink, And I cause their rivers to go as oil, A declaration of Lord YHWH.

15 When I shall make the land of Egypt desolate, and the countrey with all that is therein, shall be laid waste: when I shall smite all them which dwell therein, then shall they know that I am ye Lord.

In My making the land of Egypt a desolation, And the land has been desolated of its fullness, In My striking all the inhabitants in it, Then they have known that I [am] YHWH.

16 This is the mourning wherewith they shall lament her: the daughters of the nations shall lament her: they shall lament for Egypt, and for all her multitude, sayeth the Lord God.

It [is] a lamentation, and they have lamented her, Daughters of the nations lament her, For Egypt, and for all her multitude, they lament her, A declaration of Lord YHWH.”

17 In the twelfth yeere also in the fifteenth day of the moneth, came the worde of the Lord vnto me, saying,

And it comes to pass, in the twelfth year, on the fifteenth of the month, a word of YHWH has been to me, saying,

18 Sonne of man, lament for the multitude of Egypt, and cast them downe, euen them and the daughters of the mighty nations vnto the nether partes of the earth, with them that goe downe into the pit.

“Son of man, Wail for the multitude of Egypt, And cause it to go down, It, and the daughters of majestic nations, To the lower parts of the earth, With those going down to the pit.

19 Whome doest thou passe in beautie? goe downe and sleepe with the vncircumcised.

Whom have you surpassed in beauty? Go down, and be laid with [the] uncircumcised.

20 They shall fall in the middes of them that are slaine by the sword: shee is deliuered to the sword: draw her downe, and all her multitude.

They fall in the midst of the pierced of the sword, She has been given [to] the sword, They drew her out, and all her multitude.

21 The most mighty and strong shall speake to him out of the mids of hell with them that helpe her: they are gone downe and sleepe with the vncircumcised that be slaine by the sworde. (Sheol h7585)

The gods of the mighty speak to him out of the midst of Sheol, With his helpers—they have gone down, They have lain with the uncircumcised, The pierced of the sword. (Sheol h7585)

22 Asshur is there and all his companie: their graues are about him: all they are slaine and fallen by the sworde.

There [is] Asshur, and all her assembly, His graves [are] around him, All of them [are] wounded, who are falling by sword,

23 Whose graues are made in the side of the pit, and his multitude are rounde about his graue: all they are slaine and fallen by the sworde, which caused feare to be in the land of the liuing.

Whose graves are appointed in the sides of the pit, And her assembly is around her grave, All of them wounded, falling by sword, Because they gave terror in the land of the living.

24 There is Elam and all his multitude round about his graue: al they are slaine and fallen by the sword which are gone downe with the vncircumcised into the nether parts of the earth, which caused themselues to be feared in the land of the liuing, yet haue they borne their shame with them that are gone downe to the pit.

There [is] Elam, and all her multitude, Around her grave, All of them wounded, who are falling by sword, Who have gone down uncircumcised to the lower parts of the earth, Because they gave their terror in the land of the living, And they bear their shame with those going down to the pit.

25 They haue made his bed in the mids of the slaine with al his multitude: their graues are round about him: all these vncircucised are slaine by the sworde: though they haue caused their feare in the land of ye liuing, yet haue they borne their shame with them that goe downe to the pitte: they are laide in the middes of them, that be slaine.

They have appointed a bed for her in the midst of the wounded, With all her multitude, Her graves [are] around them, All of them uncircumcised, pierced of the sword, For their terror was given in the land of the living, And they bear their shame with those going down to the pit, He has been set in the midst of the pierced.

26 There is Meshech, Tubal, and all their multitude, their graues are round about them: al these vncircumcised were slaine by the sworde, though they caused their feare to be in ye land of the liuing.

There [is] Meshech, Tubal, and all her multitude, Her graves [are] around them, All of them uncircumcised, pierced by the sword, For they gave their terror in the land of the living,

27 And they shall not lie with the valiant of the vncircumcised, that are fallen, which are gone down to the graue, with their weapons of warre, and haue laied their swords vnder their heads, but their iniquitie shalbe vpon their bones: because they were the feare of the mighty in the lande of the liuing. (Sheol h7585)

And they do not lie with the mighty, Who are falling of the uncircumcised, Who have gone down to Sheol with their weapons of war, And they put their swords under their heads, And their iniquities are on their bones, For the terror of the mighty [is] in the land of the living. (Sheol h7585)

28 Yea, thou shalt be broken in the middes of the vncircumcised, and lie with them that are slaine by the sworde.

And you are broken in the midst of the uncircumcised, And lie with the pierced of the sword.

29 There is Edom, his Kings, and all his princes, which with their strength are laied by them that were slaine by the sworde: they shall sleepe with the vncircumcised, and with them that goe downe to the pit.

There [is] Edom, her kings, and all her princes, Who have been given up in their might, With the pierced of the sword, They lie with the uncircumcised, And with those going down to the pit.

30 There be al the princes of the North, with al the Zidonians, which are gone downe with the slaine, with their feare: they are ashamed of their strength, and the vncircumcised sleepe with them that be slaine by the sword, and beare their shame with them that goe downe to the pit.

There [are] princes of the north, All of them, and every Zidonian, Who have gone down with the pierced in their terror, They are ashamed of their might, And they lie uncircumcised with the pierced of the sword, And they bear their shame with those going down to the pit.

31 Pharaoh shall see them, and hee shall be comforted ouer all his multitude: Pharaoh, and all his armie shall be slaine by the sword, saieth the Lord God.

Then Pharaoh sees, And he has been comforted for all his multitude, The pierced of the sword—Pharaoh and all his force, A declaration of Lord YHWH.

32 For I haue caused my feare to be in the lande of the liuing: and he shall be laid in the mids of the vncircumcised with them, that are slaine by the sword, euen Pharaoh and all his multitude, sayeth the Lord God.

For I have given his terror in the land of the living, And he has been laid down in [the] midst of [the] uncircumcised, With [the] pierced of [the] sword—Pharaoh, and all his multitude, A declaration of Lord YHWH!”
