Ezekiel 30:20-22

Good News Translation

The Broken Power of the King of Egypt

²⁰ On the seventh day of the first month of the eleventh year of our exile, the Lord spoke to me. ²¹ “Mortal man,” he said, “I have broken the arm of the king of Egypt. No one has bandaged it or put it in a sling so that it could heal and be strong enough to hold a sword again. ²² Now then, this is what I, the Sovereign Lord, say: I am the enemy of the king of Egypt. I am going to break both his arms—the good one and the one already broken—and the sword will fall from his hand.
