Ezekiel 32:1-16

Legacy Standard Bible

‘You liken yourself to a young ^(C)lion of the nations,
Yet you are like the ^(D)monster in the seas;
And you ^(E)burst forth in your rivers
And muddied the waters with your feet
And ^[a]fouled their rivers.’”

“So I will ^(F)spread My net over you
With an assembly of many peoples,
And they shall bring you up in My net.
⁴ I will abandon you on the land;
I will hurl you on the ^[b]open field.
And I will cause all the ^(G)birds of the sky to dwell on you,
And I will satisfy the beasts of the whole earth ^[c]with you.
⁵ I will put your flesh ^(H)on the mountains
And fill the valleys with your refuse.
⁶ I will also make the land drink the discharge of your ^(I)blood
As far as the mountains,
And the ravines will be full of you.
⁷ And when I ^(J)extinguish you,
I will ^(K)cover the heavens and darken their ^(L)stars;
I will cover the ^(M)sun with a cloud,
And the moon will not give its light.
⁸ All the shining ^(N)lights in the heavens
I will darken over you
And will give darkness on your land,”
Declares Lord Yahweh.

And they will ^(U)devastate the lofty pride of Egypt,
And all its multitude will be destroyed.
¹³ I will also make all its cattle perish from beside many waters;
And ^(V)the foot of man will not muddy them anymore,
And the hoofs of beasts will not muddy them.
¹⁴ Then I will make their waters settle
And will cause their rivers to ^[e]run like oil,”
Declares Lord Yahweh.
¹⁵ “When I make the land of Egypt a ^(W)desolation,
And the land is desolate of its fullness,
When I strike all those who inhabit it,
Then they shall ^(X)know that I am Yahweh.
