Ang Magiging Wakas ng Egipto
30 Sinabi sa akin ni Yahweh, 2 “Ezekiel, anak ng tao, magpahayag ka. Sabihin mo sa kanilang ito ang ipinapasabi ko:
Matinding kapighatian sa araw na iyon ang darating,
3 sapagkat malapit na ang araw, ang araw ni Yahweh.
Magdidilim ang ulap sa araw na iyon, araw ng paghuhukom sa lahat ng bansa.
4 Sisiklab ang digmaan sa Egipto.
Maghahari sa Etiopia[a] ang matinding dalamhati
kapag namatay na sa Egipto ang maraming tao,
sasamsamin ang kayamanan ng buong bansa
at iiwanan itong wasak.
5 “Sa digmaang iyon ay mapapatay ang mga upahang kawal ng Etiopia, Libya, Lydia, Arabia, Kub, at ng aking bayan.” 6 Ipinapasabi nga ni Yahweh: “Mapapahamak ang lahat ng tutulong sa Egipto. Ang ipinagmamalaki niyang lakas ay ibabagsak. Mula sa Migdal hanggang Sevene lahat ay kasama niyang pupuksain sa pamamagitan ng tabak. 7 Siya ay magiging pinakamapanglaw sa lahat ng lupain. At ang lunsod niya'y isang pook na wasak na wasak. 8 Kapag ang Egipto ay akin nang tinupok at ang mga kakampi niya ay namatay nang lahat, makikilala nilang ako si Yahweh.
9 “Sa araw na iyon, ang mga tagapagbalita'y isusugo kong sakay ng mga sasakyang-dagat upang bigyang babala ang Etiopia na wala pa ring kabali-balisa. Sila'y paghaharian ng matinding kapighatian dahil sa pagkawasak na sasapitin ng Egipto; ang araw na iyon ay mabilis na dumarating.” 10 Ito ang ipinapasabi ni Yahweh: “Ang kasaganaan ng Egipto'y wawakasan ko na sa pamamagitan ng Haring Nebucadnezar. 11 Siya at ang malulupit niyang kawal ang susuguin ko upang wasakin ang Egipto. Tabak nila'y ipamumuksa sa buong lupain. Pagdating ng araw na iyon, makikitang naghambalang ang mga bangkay sa buong lupain. 12 Tutuyuin ko ang Ilog Nilo at ipapasakop ang Egipto sa masasama. Wawasakin ng mga kaaway ang buong bansa. Akong si Yahweh ang maysabi nito.” 13 Ipinapasabi ng Panginoong Yahweh: “Dudurugin ko ang mga diyus-diyosan nila. Gayon din ang gagawin ko sa mga rebulto sa Memfis. Wala nang tatayo na pinuno sa Egipto. Takot ang paghahariin ko sa buong lupain. 14 Ang dakong timog ng Egipto ay gagawin kong pook na mapanglaw. Susunugin ko ang Zoan sa hilaga at paparusahan ang punong-lunsod ng Tebez. 15 Ang galit ko'y ibubuhos sa bayan ng Pelusium na tanggulan ng Egipto. Sisirain ko ang kayamanan ng Tebez. 16 Tutupukin ko ang Egipto. Mamamahay ang Pelusium sa matinding pighati. Gigibain ang pader ng Tebez at babaha sa lupain. 17 Ang mga binata ng On at Bubastis ay papatayin sa tabak. Ang mga babae naman ay mabibihag. 18 Ang araw ng Tafnes ay magdidilim sa sandaling wakasan ko ang pananakop ng Egipto, at ang kapangyarihan niya'y putulin ko na. Matatakpan siya ng ulap, at mabibihag ang kanyang mamamayan. 19 Ganyan ang parusang igagawad ko sa Egipto. Akong si Yahweh ay makikilala nilang lahat.”
20 Noong ikapitong araw ng unang buwan ng ikalabing isang taon ng pagkakabihag sa amin, sinabi sa akin ni Yahweh, 21 “Ezekiel, anak ng tao, pipilayin ko ang braso ng hari ng Egipto. Hindi ko ito pagagalingin para hindi na makahawak ng tabak. 22 Ito ang sinasabi ko: Ako'y laban sa hari ng Egipto. Babaliin ko pa ang isa niyang kamay para mabitiwan ang kanyang tabak. 23 Ang mga Egipcio'y pangangalatin ko sa iba't ibang bayan, ipapatapon sa lahat ng panig ng daigdig. 24 Palalakasin ko ang pwersa ng hari ng Babilonia at aalisan ko naman ng kapangyarihan ang hari ng Egipto hanggang sa maging sugatan siya at umuungol na malugmok sa harapan ng hari ng Babilonia. 25 Pahihinain ko ang hari ng Egipto ngunit palalakasin ko naman ang hari ng Babilonia. Kapag itinuro niya sa Egipto ang tabak na ibibigay ko sa kanya, malalaman nilang ako si Yahweh. 26 Pangangalatin ko sa lahat ng bansa ang mga Egipcio at ipapatapon sa iba't ibang dako. Sa gayon, makikilala nilang ako si Yahweh.”

New King James Version
Egypt and Her Allies Will Fall
30 The word of the Lord came to me again, saying, 2 “Son of man, prophesy and say, ‘Thus says the Lord God:
(A)“Wail, ‘Woe to the day!’
3 For (B)the day is near,
Even the day of the Lord is near;
It will be a day of clouds, the time of the Gentiles.
4 The sword shall come upon Egypt,
And great anguish shall be in [a]Ethiopia,
When the slain fall in Egypt,
And they (C)take away her wealth,
And (D)her foundations are broken down.
5 “Ethiopia, [b]Libya, [c]Lydia, (E)all the mingled people, Chub, and the men of the lands who are allied, shall fall with them by the sword.”
6 ‘Thus says the Lord:
“Those who uphold Egypt shall fall,
And the pride of her power shall come down.
(F)From [d]Migdol to Syene
Those within her shall fall by the sword,”
Says the Lord God.
7 “They(G) shall be desolate in the midst of the desolate countries,
And her cities shall be in the midst of the cities that are laid waste.
8 Then they will know that I am the Lord,
When I have set a fire in Egypt
And all her helpers are destroyed.
9 On that day (H)messengers shall go forth from Me in ships
To make the [e]careless Ethiopians afraid,
And great anguish shall come upon them,
As on the day of Egypt;
For indeed it is coming!”
10 ‘Thus says the Lord God:
(I)“I will also make a multitude of Egypt to cease
By the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.
11 He and his people with him, (J)the most terrible of the nations,
Shall be brought to destroy the land;
They shall draw their swords against Egypt,
And fill the land with the slain.
12 (K)I will make the rivers dry,
And (L)sell the land into the hand of the wicked;
I will make the land waste, and all that is in it,
By the hand of aliens.
I, the Lord, have spoken.”
13 ‘Thus says the Lord God:
“I will also (M)destroy the idols,
And cause the images to cease from [f]Noph;
(N)There shall no longer be princes from the land of Egypt;
(O)I will put fear in the land of Egypt.
14 I will make (P)Pathros desolate,
Set fire to (Q)Zoan,
(R)And execute judgments in [g]No.
15 I will pour My fury on [h]Sin, the strength of Egypt;
(S)I will cut off the multitude of [i]No,
16 And (T)set a fire in Egypt;
Sin shall have great pain,
No shall be split open,
And Noph shall be in distress daily.
17 The young men of [j]Aven and Pi Beseth shall fall by the sword,
And these cities shall go into captivity.
18 (U)At [k]Tehaphnehes the day shall also be [l]darkened,
When I break the yokes of Egypt there.
And her arrogant strength shall cease in her;
As for her, a cloud shall cover her,
And her daughters shall go into captivity.
19 Thus I will (V)execute judgments on Egypt,
Then they shall know that I am the Lord.” ’ ”
Proclamation Against Pharaoh
20 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first month, on the seventh day of the month, that the word of the Lord came to me, saying, 21 “Son of man, I have (W)broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and see, (X)it has not been bandaged for healing, nor a [m]splint put on to bind it, to make it strong enough to hold a sword. 22 Therefore thus says the Lord God: ‘Surely I am (Y)against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and will (Z)break his arms, both the strong one and the one that was broken; and I will make the sword fall out of his hand. 23 (AA)I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and disperse them throughout the countries. 24 I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon and put My sword in his hand; but I will break Pharaoh’s arms, and he will groan before him with the groanings of a mortally wounded man. 25 Thus I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, but the arms of Pharaoh shall fall down; (AB)they shall know that I am the Lord, when I put My sword into the hand of the king of Babylon and he stretches it out against the land of Egypt. 26 (AC)I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations and disperse them throughout the countries. Then they shall know that I am the Lord.’ ”

A Lament Over Egypt
30 The word of the Lord came to me: 2 “Son of man, prophesy and say: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘Wail(A) and say,
“Alas for that day!”
3 For the day is near,(B)
the day of the Lord(C) is near—
a day of clouds,
a time of doom for the nations.
4 A sword will come against Egypt,(D)
and anguish will come upon Cush.[a](E)
When the slain fall in Egypt,
her wealth will be carried away
and her foundations torn down.(F)
5 Cush and Libya,(G) Lydia and all Arabia,(H) Kub and the people(I) of the covenant land will fall by the sword along with Egypt.(J)
6 “‘This is what the Lord says:
“‘The allies of Egypt will fall
and her proud strength will fail.
From Migdol to Aswan(K)
they will fall by the sword within her,
declares the Sovereign Lord.
7 “‘They will be desolate
among desolate lands,
and their cities will lie
among ruined cities.(L)
8 Then they will know that I am the Lord,
when I set fire(M) to Egypt
and all her helpers are crushed.(N)
9 “‘On that day messengers will go out from me in ships to frighten Cush(O) out of her complacency. Anguish(P) will take hold of them on the day of Egypt’s doom, for it is sure to come.(Q)
10 “‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘I will put an end to the hordes of Egypt
by the hand of Nebuchadnezzar(R) king of Babylon.(S)
11 He and his army—the most ruthless of nations(T)—
will be brought in to destroy the land.
They will draw their swords against Egypt
and fill the land with the slain.(U)
12 I will dry up(V) the waters of the Nile(W)
and sell the land to an evil nation;
by the hand of foreigners
I will lay waste(X) the land and everything in it.
I the Lord have spoken.
13 “‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘I will destroy the idols(Y)
and put an end to the images in Memphis.(Z)
No longer will there be a prince in Egypt,(AA)
and I will spread fear throughout the land.
14 I will lay(AB) waste Upper Egypt,
set fire to Zoan(AC)
and inflict punishment on Thebes.(AD)
15 I will pour out my wrath on Pelusium,
the stronghold of Egypt,
and wipe out the hordes of Thebes.
16 I will set fire(AE) to Egypt;
Pelusium will writhe in agony.
Thebes will be taken by storm;
Memphis(AF) will be in constant distress.
17 The young men of Heliopolis(AG) and Bubastis
will fall by the sword,
and the cities themselves will go into captivity.
18 Dark will be the day at Tahpanhes(AH)
when I break the yoke of Egypt;(AI)
there her proud strength will come to an end.
She will be covered with clouds,
and her villages will go into captivity.(AJ)
19 So I will inflict punishment(AK) on Egypt,
and they will know that I am the Lord.’”
Pharaoh’s Arms Are Broken
20 In the eleventh year, in the first month on the seventh day, the word of the Lord came to me:(AL) 21 “Son of man, I have broken the arm(AM) of Pharaoh(AN) king of Egypt. It has not been bound up to be healed(AO) or put in a splint so that it may become strong enough to hold a sword. 22 Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt.(AP) I will break both his arms, the good arm as well as the broken one, and make the sword fall from his hand.(AQ) 23 I will disperse the Egyptians among the nations and scatter them through the countries.(AR) 24 I will strengthen(AS) the arms of the king of Babylon and put my sword(AT) in his hand, but I will break the arms of Pharaoh, and he will groan(AU) before him like a mortally wounded man. 25 I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, but the arms of Pharaoh will fall limp. Then they will know that I am the Lord, when I put my sword(AV) into the hand of the king of Babylon and he brandishes it against Egypt.(AW) 26 I will disperse the Egyptians among the nations and scatter them through the countries. Then they will know that I am the Lord.(AX)”

16 And I will set fire to Egypt;
Pelusium shall be in great agony;
Thebes shall be breached,

17 The young men of On and of Pi-beseth shall fall by the sword,

18 At (AP)Tehaphnehes (AQ)the day shall be dark,
