Ezekiel 30

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

And the word of the Lord came to me, 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, prophesy and say: Thus says the Lord God: Wail: ‘Woe, woe to 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, and the day of the Lord is approaching! It is a day of gloom; it will be the time of the Gentiles.

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 the sword will come to Egypt. And there will be dread in Ethiopia, when the wounded will have fallen in Egypt, and its multitude will have been taken away, and its foundations will have been destroyed.

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 Libya, and Lydia, and all the rest of the common people, and Chub, and the sons of the land of the covenant, will fall 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.

Thus says the Lord God: And those who prop up Egypt will fall, and the arrogance of its reign will be brought down. They will fall in it by the sword, before the tower of Syene, says the Lord, the God of hosts.

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 they will be scattered into the midst of desolate lands, and its cities will be in the midst of cities that have been deserted.

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 shall know that I am the Lord, when I will have brought a fire into Egypt, and when all its helpers will have been worn away.

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, messengers will go forth from my face in Greek warships, in order to crush the confidence of Ethiopia. And there will be dread among them in the day of Egypt; for without doubt, it will happen.

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.

Thus says the Lord God: By the hand of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, I will cause the multitude of Egypt to cease.

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 his people with him, the strongest of the Gentiles, will be brought forth in order to destroy the land. And they will draw their swords over Egypt. And they will fill the land with the slain.

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 cause the channels of the rivers to dry up. And I will deliver the land into the hand of the most wicked. And by the hands of foreigners, I will utterly destroy the land and its plenitude. I, the Lord, have spoken.

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.

Thus says the Lord God: And I will destroy the graven images, and I will cause the idols of Memphis to cease. And there will no longer be a commander of the land of Egypt. And I will send terror upon 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 destroy the land of Pathros, and I will send a fire upon Tahpanhes, and I will execute judgments in Alexandria.

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

And I will pour out my indignation upon Pelusium, the strength of Egypt, and I will kill the multitude of Alexandria.

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 send a fire upon Egypt. Pelusium will be in pain, like a woman giving birth. And Alexandria will be utterly destroyed. And in Memphis, there will be anguish every day.

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 Heliopolis and Pibeseth will fall by the sword, and the young women will be led into captivity.

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 in Tahpanhes, the day will grow black, when, in that place, I will break the scepters of Egypt. And the arrogance of her authority will fail within her; a gloom will cover her. Then her daughters will be led into captivity.

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

And I will execute judgments in Egypt. And they shall know 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.

And it happened that, in the eleventh year, in the first month, on the seventh 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, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh, the king of Egypt. And behold, it has not been wrapped, so that it might be restored to health; it has not been bound with cloths, or bandaged with linen, so that, having recovered strength, it would be able to hold 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.

Because of this, thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and I will shatter his strong arm, which has already been broken. And I will cast the sword away from his hand.

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

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

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 strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon. And I will put my sword into his hand. And I will break the arms of Pharaoh. And they will groan acutely, when they are slain before his face.

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 strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon. And the arms of Pharaoh will fall. And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I will have given my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and when he will have extended it over 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 disperse Egypt among the nations, and I will scatter them among the lands. And they shall know that I am the Lord.”
