Book 14 : NEVIIM - EZEKIEL - Chapter 029

29:001

In the tenth year, in the tenth month, in the twelfth day of the month, the word of HaShem came unto me, saying

29:002

'Son of man, set thy face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against him, and against all Egypt

29:003

speak, and say: Thus saith the L-rd GOD: behold, I am against thee, Pharaoh King of Egypt, the great dragon that lieth in the midst of his rivers, that hath said: My river is mine own, and I have made it for myself

29:004

And I will put hooks in thy jaws, and I will cause the fish of thy rivers to stick unto thy scales; and I will bring thee up out of the midst of thy rivers, and all the fish of thy rivers shall stick unto thy scales

29:005

And I will cast thee into the wilderness, thee and all the fish of thy rivers; thou shalt fall upon the open field; thou shalt not be brought together, nor gathered; to the beasts of the earth and to the fowls of the heaven have I given thee for food

29:006

And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I am HaShem, because they have been a staff of reed to the house of Israel

29:007

When they take hold of thee with the hand, thou dost break, and rend all their shoulders; and when they lean upon thee, thou breakest, and makest all their loins to be at a stand

29:008

Therefore thus saith the L-rd GOD: Behold, I will bring a sword upon thee, and will cut off from thee man and beast

29:009

And the land of Egypt shall be desolate and waste, and they shall know that I am HaShem; because he hath said: The river is mine, and I have made it

29:010

Therefore, behold, I am against thee, and against thy rivers, and I will make the land of Egypt utterly waste and desolate, from Migdol to Syene even unto the border of Ethiopia

29:011

No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of beast shall pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty years

29:012

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

29:013

For thus saith the L-rd GOD: At the end of forty years will I gather the Egyptians from the peoples whither they were scattered

29:014

and I will turn the captivity of Egypt, and will cause them to return into the land of Pathros, into the land of their origin; and they shall be there a lowly kingdom

29:015

It shall be the lowliest 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

29:016

And it shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel, bringing iniquity to remembrance, when they turn after them; and they shall know that I am the L-rd GOD.

29:017

And it came to pass in the seven and twentieth year, in the first month, in the first day of the month, the word of HaShem came unto me, saying

29:018

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

29:019

Therefore thus saith the L-rd GOD: Behold, I will give the land of Egypt unto Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon; and he shall carry off her abundance, and take her spoil, and take her prey; and it shall be the wages for his army

29:020

I have given him the land of Egypt as his hire for which he served, because they wrought for Me, saith the L-rd GOD

29:021

In that day will I cause a horn to shoot up unto the house of Israel, and I will give thee the opening of the mouth in the midst of them; and they shall know that I am HaShem.
