Ezequiel 29

Studie

   

1 EN el año décimo, en el mes décimo, á los doce del mes, fué á mí palabra de Jehová, diciendo:

2 Hijo del hombre, pon tu rostro contra Faraón rey de Egipto, y profetiza contra él y contra todo Egipto.

3 Habla, y di: Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: He aquí yo contra ti, Faraón rey de Egipto, el gran dragón que yace en medio de sus ríos, el cual dijo: Mío es mi río, y yo me lo hice.

4 Yo pues, pondré anzuelos en tus mejillas, y pegaré los peces de tus ríos á tus escamas, y te sacaré de en medio de tus ríos, y todos los peces de tus ríos saldrán pegados á tus escamas.

5 Y dejaréte en el desierto, á ti y á todos los peces de tus ríos: sobre la haz del campo caerás; no serás recogido, ni serás juntado: á las bestias de la tierra y á las aves del cielo te he dado por comida.

6 Y sabrán todos los moradores de Egipto que yo soy Jehová, por cuanto fueron bordón de caña á la casa de Israel.

7 Cuando te tomaron con la mano, te quebraste, y les rompiste todo el hombro: y cuando se recostaron sobre ti, te quebraste, y los deslomaste enteramente.

8 Por tanto, así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: He aquí que yo traigo contra ti espada, y talaré de ti hombres y bestias.

9 Y la tierra de Egipto será asolada y desierta: y sabrán que yo soy Jehová: porque dijo: Mi río, y yo lo hice.

10 Por tanto, he aquí yo contra ti, y contra tus ríos; y pondré la tierra de Egipto en asolamientos de la soledad del desierto, desde Migdol hasta Seveneh, hasta el término de Etiopía.

11 No pasará por ella pie de hombre, ni pie de bestia pasará por ella; ni será habitada por cuarenta años.

12 Y pondré á la tierra de Egipto en soledad entre las tierras asoladas, y sus ciudades entre las ciudades destruidas estarán asoladas por cuarenta años: y esparciré á Egipto entre las gentes, y aventarélos por las tierras.

13 Porque así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: Al fin de cuarenta años juntaré á Egipto de los pueblos entre los cuales fueren esparcidos:

14 Y tornaré á traer los cautivos de Egipto, y los volveré á la tierra de Patros, á la tierra de su habitación; y allí serán un reino bajo.

15 En comparación de los otros reinos será humilde; ni más se alzará sobre las gentes: porque yo los disminuiré, para que no se enseñoreen en las gentes.

16 Y no será más á la casa de Israel por confianza, que haga acordar el pecado, mirando en pos de ellos; y sabrán que yo soy el Señor Jehová.

17 Y aconteció en el año veinte y siete, en el mes primero, al primero del mes, que fué á mí palabra de Jehová, diciendo:

18 Hijo del hombre, Nabucodonosor rey de Babilonia hizo á su ejército prestar grande servicio contra Tiro. Toda cabeza se encalveció, y pelóse todo hombro; y ni para él ni para su ejército hubo paga de Tiro, por el servicio que prestó contra ella.

19 Por tanto, así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: He aquí que yo doy á Nabucodonosor, rey de Babilonia, la tierra de Egipto; y él tomará su multitud, y cogerá sus despojos, y arrebatará su presa, y habrá paga para su ejército.

20 Por su trabajo con que sirvió contra ella le he dado la tierra de Egipto: porque trabajaron por mí, dice el Señor Jehová.

21 En aquel tiempo haré reverdecer el cuerno á la casa de Israel, y te daré apertura de boca en medio de ellos; y sabrán que yo soy Jehová.

387. And with death, signifies the consequent extinction of spiritual life. This is evident from the signification of "death," as being the extinction of spiritual life (See above, n. 78, 186). That this is what "death" here signifies is evident from the series of things in the internal sense; for it is said that "there was given unto them power to kill with sword, with famine, and with death;" and "sword" signifies falsity destroying truth, "famine" the deprivation of the knowledges of truth and good; thence "death" signifies the extinction of spiritual life; for where falsity reigns, and where there are no knowledges of truth and good, there is no spiritual life, for spiritual life is acquired by means of the knowledges of truth and good applied to the uses of life. For man is born into all evil and falsity from evil; he is therefore born also into an entire ignorance of all spiritual knowledges; therefore in order that he may be led away from the evils and consequent falsities into which he is born, and be led into the life of heaven and be saved, he must needs acquire the knowledges of truth and good, by means of which he can be led into spiritual life and become spiritual. From this series of things in the internal sense it is evident that "death" here signifies the extinction of spiritual life; this is meant, too, by spiritual death.

Ezekiel 29

Studie

   

1 In the tenth year, in the tenth month, on the twelfth day of the month, the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,

2 "Son of man, set your face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against him and against all Egypt.

3 Speak and say, 'Thus says the Lord Yahweh: "Behold, I am against you, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great monster that lies in the midst of his rivers, that has said, 'My river is my own, and I have made it for myself.'

4 I will put hooks in your jaws, and I will make the fish of your rivers stick to your scales; and I will bring you up out of the midst of your rivers, with all the fish of your rivers which stick to your scales.

5 I'll cast you forth into the wilderness, you and all the fish of your rivers. You'll fall on the open field. You won't be brought together, nor gathered. I have given you for food to the animals of the earth and to the birds of the sky.

6 All the inhabitants of Egypt will know that I am Yahweh, because they have been a staff of reed to the house of Israel.

7 When they took hold of you by your hand, you broke, and tore all their shoulders; and when they leaned on you, you broke, and paralyzed all of their thighs."

8 Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh: "Behold, I will bring a sword on you, and will cut off man and animal from you.

9 The land of Egypt shall be a desolation and a waste; and they shall know that I am Yahweh. Because he has said, 'The river is mine, and I have made it;'

10 therefore, behold, I am against you, and against your rivers, and I will make the land of Egypt an utter waste and desolation, from the tower of Seveneh even to the border of Ethiopia.

11 No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of animal shall pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty years.

12 I will make the land of Egypt a desolation in the midst of the countries that are desolate; and her cities among the cities that are laid waste shall be a desolation forty years; and I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries."

13 For thus says the Lord Yahweh: "At the end of forty years will I gather the Egyptians from the peoples where they were scattered;

14 and I will bring back the captivity of Egypt, and will cause them to return into the land of Pathros, into the land of their birth; and they shall be there a base kingdom.

15 It shall be the base of the kingdoms; neither shall it any more lift itself up above the nations: and I will diminish them, that they shall no more rule over the nations.

16 It shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel, bringing iniquity to memory, when they turn to look after them: and they shall know that I am the Lord Yahweh."'"

17 It came to pass in the seven and twentieth year, in the first [month], in the first [day] of the month, the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,

18 Son of man, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon caused his army to serve a great service against Tyre: every head was made bald, and every shoulder was worn; yet had he no wages, nor his army, from Tyre, for the service that he had served against it.

19 Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I will give the land of Egypt to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and he shall carry off her multitude, and take her spoil, and take her prey; and it shall be the wages for his army.

20 I have given him the land of Egypt as his recompense for which he served, because they worked for me, says the Lord Yahweh.

21 In that day will I cause a horn to bud forth to the house of Israel, and I will give you the opening of the mouth in the midst of them; and they shall know that I am Yahweh.
