Ezekiel 30:13-19
Legacy Standard Bible
13 ‘Thus says Lord Yahweh,
“I will also (A)destroy the idols
And make the [a]images cease from [b](B)Memphis.
And there will no longer be a prince in the land of Egypt;
And I will put fear in the land of Egypt.
14 I will make (C)Pathros desolate,
Set a fire in (D)Zoan,
And execute judgments on [c](E)Thebes.
15 I will pour out My wrath on [d]Sin,
The strong defense of Egypt;
I will also cut off the multitude of [e]Thebes.
16 I will set a fire in Egypt;
[f]Sin will writhe in anguish;
[g]Thebes will be breached,
And [h]Memphis will have [i]distresses daily.
17 The choice men of [j](F)On and of Pi-beseth
Will fall by the sword,
And [k]the women will go into captivity.
18 In (G)Tehaphnehes the day will [l]be (H)dark
When I (I)break there the bars of the yoke of Egypt.
Then the pride of her strength will cease in her;
A cloud will cover her,
And her daughters will go into captivity.
19 Thus I will (J)execute judgments on Egypt,
And they will know that I am Yahweh.”’”

Revised Standard Version
13 “Thus says the Lord God:
I will destroy the idols,
and put an end to the images, in Memphis;
there shall no longer be a prince in the land of Egypt;
so I will put fear in the land of Egypt.
14 I will make Pathros a desolation,
and will set fire to Zo′an,
and will execute acts of judgment upon Thebes.
15 And I will pour my wrath upon Pelusium,
the stronghold of Egypt,
and cut off the multitude of Thebes.
16 And I will set fire to Egypt;
Pelusium shall be in great agony;
Thebes shall be breached,
and its walls broken down.[a]
17 The young men of On and of Pibe′seth shall fall by the sword;
and the women shall go into captivity.
18 At Tehaph′nehes the day shall be dark,
when I break there the dominion of Egypt,
and her proud might shall come to an end;
she shall be covered by a cloud,
and her daughters shall go into captivity.
19 Thus I will execute acts of judgment upon Egypt.
Then they will know that I am the Lord.”
