Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁸ Son of man, mourn over the horde of Egypt and send her down below the earth with the daughters of majestic nations, to be with those who have descended to the pit. ¹⁹ Are you more favored than others? Go on down and lie down among the uncircumcised. ²⁰ They will fall among those who were run through by the sword. A sword has been appointed. Egypt and all its hordes will be carried off. ²¹ The elite warriors will speak to him and to his allies from the midst of the grave.

²² Assyria is there with her whole crowd. Their graves are around her.

²⁴ Elam^[a] is there, with her whole horde around her grave, all of them slain, fallen by the sword, those who went down below the earth uncircumcised, those who once spread terror in the land of the living. They bear their shame along with those who have descended to the pit. ²⁵ A bed is made for Elam among the slain, with its whole horde around its graves, all of them uncircumcised, run through by the sword. Because they once spread terror in the land of the living, they will bear their shame with those who have descended to the pit. They are placed among the slain.

²⁶ Meshek Tubal^[b] is there with its whole horde around its graves, all of them uncircumcised, run through by the sword because they had spread terror in the land of the living. ²⁷ Do they not lie with other fallen, uncircumcised warriors,^[c] who went down to the grave with their weapons of war, with their swords placed under their heads, with evidence of their guilt on their bones, because of the terror these warriors had once spread in the land of the living?

³¹ Pharaoh will see them all and will console himself concerning his whole horde. Pharaoh is run through by the sword with his whole army, declares the Lord God. ³² For I have set my terror in the land of the living, and he will be forced^[d] to lie down among the uncircumcised, with those run through by the sword, that is, Pharaoh and his whole horde, declares the Lord God.
