Ezekiel 30

Studie

   

1 And the word of Jehovah was unto me, saying,

2 Son of man, prophesy and say, Thus says the Lord Jehovih*; Howl ye, Alas the day!

3 For the day is near, and the day for Jehovah is near, a day of cloud; a time of the nations it shall be.

4 And the sword shall come into Egypt, and travailing shall be in Cush, when the slain shall fall in Egypt, and they shall take her crowd, and her foundations shall be broken·​·down.

5 Ethiopia, and Put, and Lud, and all Ereb, and Chub, and the sons of the land that is in covenant, shall fall with them by the sword.

6 Thus says Jehovah; And they who support Egypt shall fall; and the pride of her strength shall come·​·down; from the tower of Sevene shall they fall in it by the sword, says the Lord Jehovih.

7 And they shall be desolate in the midst of the lands that are desolate, and her cities shall be in the midst of the cities that are wasted.

8 And they shall know that I am Jehovah, when I have set a fire in Egypt, and when all her helpers shall be broken.

9 In that day shall messengers go·​·out from before Me in boats, to frighten secure Ethiopia, and there will be travailing among them, as in the day of Egypt; for, behold, it comes.

10 Thus says the Lord Jehovih; I will also make the multitude of Egypt to cease by the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon.

11 He and his people with him, the terrible of the nations, shall be brought to destroy the land; and they shall unsheathe their swords against Egypt, and fill the land with the slain.

12 And I will make the rivers dry, and sell the land into the hand of the evil; and I will make the land desolate, and all that is therein, by the hand of strangers: I, Jehovah, have spoken it.

13 Thus says the Lord Jehovih; and I will make· the idols ·perish, and I will cause their vain·​·gods to cease out of Noph; and there shall be no more a chief of the land of Egypt; and I will put a fear in the land of Egypt.

14 And I will make Pathros desolate, and will put fire in Zoan, and will make judgments in No.

15 And I will spill My fury on Sin, the strength of Egypt; and I will cut·​·off the crowd of No.

16 And I will put fire in Egypt; Sin travailing shall·​·travail, and No shall be ripped·​·open, and Noph shall have daily adversities.

17 The young·​·men of Aven and of Pibeseth shall fall by the sword; and these cities shall go into captivity.

18 And at Taḥpanḥes the day shall be darkened, when I shall break there the braces of Egypt; and the pride of her strength shall cease in her: as for her, a cloud shall cover her, and her daughters shall go into captivity.

19 And I shall make judgments in Egypt; and they shall know that I am Jehovah.

20 And it was, in the eleventh year, in the first month, in the seventh day of the month, that the word of Jehovah was unto me, saying,

21 Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and, behold, it shall not be bound·​·up to give healing, to set a bandage to bind· it ·up, to make· it ·firm to lay·​·hold of the sword.

22 Therefore thus says the Lord Jehovih; Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and will break his arms, the firm and the broken; and I will cause the sword to fall from his hand.

23 And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them in the lands.

24 And I will make·​·firm the arms of the king of Babylon, and give My sword into his hand; but I will break the arms of Pharaoh, and he shall groan before him with the groanings of those being slain.

25 And I will make·​·firm the arms of the king of Babylon, and the arms of Pharaoh shall fall; and they shall know that I am Jehovah, when I give My sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall stretch· it ·out unto the land of Egypt.

26 And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and disperse them among the lands; and they shall know that I am Jehovah.
