Ezekiel 30

1 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.

The word of the Lord came to me again, saying,

2 O son of humankind prophesy and you will say thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh wail alas! for the day.

Son of man, be a prophet, and say, These are the words of the Lord: Give a cry, Aha, for the day!

3 For [is] near a day and [is] near a day of Yahweh a day of cloud[s] a time of nations it will be.

For the day is near, the day of the Lord is near, a day of cloud; it will be the time of the nations.

4 And it will come a sword on Egypt and it will be anguish on Cush when fall [the] slain in Egypt and people will take away wealth its and they will be torn down foundations its.

And a sword will come on Egypt, and cruel pain will be in Ethiopia, when they are falling by the sword in Egypt; and they will take away her wealth and her bases will be broken down.

5 Cush and Put and Lud and every foreigner and Libya and [the] sons of [the] land of the covenant with them by the sword they will fall.

Ethiopia and Put and Lud and all the mixed people and Libya and the children of the land of the Cherethites will all be put to death with them by the sword.

6 Thus he says Yahweh and they will fall [the] supporters of Egypt and it will come down [the] pride of strength its from Migdol Syene by the sword they will fall in it [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.

This is what the Lord has said: The supporters of Egypt will have a fall, and the pride of her power will come down: from Migdol to Syene they will be put to the sword in it, says the Lord.

7 And they will be desolate in midst of lands made desolate and cities its in midst of cities made waste they will be.

And she will be made waste among the countries which have been made waste, and her towns will be among the towns which are unpeopled.

8 And they will know that I [am] Yahweh when put I fire in Egypt and they will be broken all helpers its.

And they will be certain that I am the Lord, when I have put a fire in Egypt and all her helpers are broken.

9 On the day that they will go out messengers from to before me in the ships to make tremble Cush security and it will be anguish on them on [the] day of Egypt for there! [it is] coming.

In that day men will go out quickly to take the news, causing fear in untroubled Ethiopia; and bitter pain will come on them as in the day of Egypt; for see, it is coming.

10 Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh and I will put an end to [the] multitude of Egypt by [the] hand of Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon.

This is what the Lord has said: I will put an end to great numbers of the people of Egypt by the hand of Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon.

11 He and people his with him ruthless [ones] of nations [will be] brought to destroy the land and they will draw swords their on Egypt and they will fill the land [the] slain.

He and the people with him, causing fear among the nations, will be sent for the destruction of the land; their swords will be let loose against Egypt and the land will be full of dead.

12 And I will make canals dry ground and I will sell the land in [the] hand of wicked [people] and I will devastate [the] land and what fills it by [the] hand of strangers I Yahweh I have spoken.

And I will make the Nile streams dry, and will give the land into the hands of evil men, causing the land and everything in it to be wasted by the hands of men from a strange country: I the Lord have said it.

13 Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh and I will destroy idols and I will cause to cease worthless idols from Memphis and a prince from [the] land of Egypt not he will be again and I will put fear in [the] land of Egypt.

This is what the Lord has said: In addition to this, I will give up the images to destruction and put an end to the false gods in Noph; never again will there be a ruler in the land of Egypt: and I will put a fear in the land of Egypt.

14 And I will devastate Pathros and I will put fire in Zoan and I will bring about judgments on Thebes.

And I will make Pathros a waste, and put a fire in Zoan, and send my punishments on No.

15 And I will pour out rage my on Sin [the] stronghold of Egypt and I will cut off [the] multitude of Thebes.

I will let loose my wrath on Sin, the strong place of Egypt, cutting off the mass of the people of No.

16 And I will put fire in Egypt surely (it will writhe in agony *Q(k)*) Sin and Thebes it is [about] to be broken into and Memphis distress of daytime.

And I will put a fire in Egypt; Syene will be twisting in pain, and No will be broken into, as by the onrush of waters.

17 [the] young men of On and Pi-beseth by the sword they will fall and they [fem] in captivity they will go.

The young men of On and Pi-beseth will be put to the sword: and these towns will be taken away prisoners.

18 And in Tahpanhes it will withhold the day when break I there [the] yoke-bars of Egypt and it will cease in it [the] pride of strength its it a cloud it will cover it and daughters its in captivity they will go.

And at Tehaphnehes the day will become dark, when the yoke of Egypt is broken there, and the pride of her power comes to an end: as for her, she will be covered with a cloud, and her daughters will be taken away prisoners.

19 And I will bring about judgments on Egypt and they will know that I [am] Yahweh.

And I will send my punishments on Egypt: and they will be certain that I am the Lord.

20 And it was in one [plus] ten year in the first [month] on [day] seven of the month it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.

Now in the eleventh year, in the first month, on the seventh day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

21 O son of humankind [the] arm of Pharaoh [the] king of Egypt I have broken and there! not it has been bound up to give healing to put a bandage to bind up it to be strong it to wield the sword.

Son of man, the arm of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, has been broken by me, and no band has been put round it to make it well, no band has been twisted round it to make it strong for gripping the sword.

22 Therefore thus he says - [the] Lord Yahweh here I [am] against Pharaoh [the] king of Egypt and I will break arms his the strong [one] and the broken [one] and I will make fall the sword from hand his.

For this cause the Lord has said: See, I am against Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and by me his strong arm will be broken; and I will make the sword go out of his hand.

23 And I will scatter Egypt among the nations and I will disperse them among the lands.

And I will send the Egyptians in flight among the nations and wandering through the countries.

24 And I will make strong [the] arms of [the] king of Babylon and I will put sword my in hand his and I will break [the] arms of Pharaoh and he will groan [the] groans of [one] fatally wounded before him.

And I will make the arms of the king of Babylon strong, and will put my sword in his hand: but Pharaoh's arms will be broken, and he will give cries of pain before him like the cries of a man wounded to death.

25 And I will strengthen [the] arms of [the] king of Babylon and [the] arms of Pharaoh they will fall and they will know that I [am] Yahweh when put I sword my in [the] hand of [the] king of Babylon and he will stretch out it against [the] land of Egypt.

And I will make the arms of the king of Babylon strong, and the arms of Pharaoh will be hanging down; and they will be certain that I am the Lord, when I put my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon and it is stretched out against the land of Egypt.

26 And I will scatter Egypt among the nations and I will disperse them among the lands and they will know that I [am] Yahweh.

And I will send the Egyptians in flight among the nations and wandering through the countries; and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
