Book 14 : NEVIIM - EZEKIEL - Chapter 032
32:001
And it came to pass in the twelfth year, in the twelfth
month, in the first day of the month, that the word of HaShem came unto me,
saying
32:002
'Son of man, take up a lamentation for Pharaoh king of
Egypt, and say unto him: thou didst liken thyself unto a young lion of the
nations; whereas thou art as a dragon in the seas; and thou didst gush forth
with thy rivers, and didst trouble the waters with thy feet, and foul their
rivers
32:003
Thus saith the L-rd GOD: I will therefore spread out My net
over thee with a company of many peoples; and they shall bring thee up in My
net
32:004
And I will cast thee upon the land, I will hurl thee upon
the open field, and will cause all the fowls of the heaven to settle upon thee,
and I will fill the beasts of the whole earth with thee
32:005
And I will lay thy flesh upon the mountains, and fill the
valleys with thy foulness
32:006
I will also water with thy blood the land wherein thou
swimmest, even to the mountains; and the channels shall be full of thee
32:007
And when I shall extinguish thee, I will cover the heaven,
and make the stars thereof black; I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the
moon shall not give her light
32:008
All the bright lights of heaven will I make black over
thee, and set darkness upon thy land, saith the L-rd GOD
32:009
I will also vex the hearts of many peoples, when I shall
bring thy destruction among the nations, into the countries which thou hast not
known
32:010
Yea, I will make many peoples appalled at thee, and their
kings shall be horribly afraid for thee, when I shall brandish My sword before
them; and they shall tremble at every moment, every man for his own life, in the
day of thy fall
32:011
For thus saith the L-rd GOD: The sword of the king of
Babylon shall come upon thee
32:012
By the swords of the mighty will I cause thy multitude to
fall; the terrible of the nations are they all; and they shall spoil the pride
of Egypt, and all the multitude thereof shall be destroyed
32:013
I will destroy also all the beasts thereof from beside
many waters; neither shall the foot of man trouble them any more, nor the hoofs
of beasts trouble them
32:014
Then will I make their waters to settle, and cause their
rivers to run like oil, saith the L-rd GOD
32:015
When I shall make the land of Egypt desolate and waste, a
land destitute of that whereof it was full, when I shall smite all them that
dwell therein, then shall they know that I am HaShem
32:016
This is the lamentation wherewith they shall lament; the
daughters of the nations shall lament therewith; for Egypt, and for all her
multitude, shall they lament therewith, saith the L-rd GOD.
32:017
It came to pass also in the twelfth year, in the fifteenth
day of the month, that the word of HaShem came unto me, saying
32:018
'Son of man, wail for the multitude of Egypt, and cast
them down, even her, with the daughters of the mighty nations, unto the nether
parts of the earth, with them that go down into the pit
32:019
Whom dost thou pass in beauty? Go down, and be thou laid
with the uncircumcised
32:020
They shall fall in the midst of them that are slain by the
sword; she is delivered to the sword; draw her down and all her multitudes
32:021
The strong among the mighty shall speak of him out of the
midst of the nether-world with them that helped him; they are gone down, they
lie still, even the uncircumcised, slain by the sword
32:022
Asshur is there and all her company; their graves are
round about them; all of them slain, fallen by the sword
32:023
whose graves are set in the uttermost parts of the pit,
and her company is round about her grave; all of them slain, fallen by the
sword, who caused terror in the land of the living
32:024
There is Elam and all her multitude round about her grave;
all of them slain, fallen by the sword, who are gone down uncircumcised into the
nether parts of the earth, who caused their terror in the land of the living;
yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit
32:025
They have set her a bed in the midst of the slain with all
her multitude; her graves are round about them; all of them uncircumcised, slain
by the sword; because their terror was caused in the land of the living, yet
have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit; they are put in
the midst of them that are slain
32:026
There is Meshech, Tubal, and all her multitude; her graves
are round about them; all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword; because
they caused their terror in the land of the living
32:027
And they that are inferior to the uncircumcised shall not
lie with the mighty that are gone down to the nether-world with their weapons of
war, whose swords are laid under their heads, and whose iniquities are upon
their bones; because the terror of the mighty was in the land of the living
32:028
But thou, in the midst of the uncircumcised shalt thou be
broken and lie, even with them that are slain by the sword
32:029
There is Edom, her kings and all her princes, who for all
their might are laid with them that are slain by the sword; they shall lie with
the uncircumcised, and with them that go down to the pit
32:030
There are the princes of the north, all of them, and all
the Zidonians, who are gone down with the slain, ashamed for all the terror
which they caused by their might, and they lie uncircumcised with them that are
slain by the sword, and bear their shame with them that go down to the pit
32:031
These shall Pharaoh see, and shall be comforted over all
his multitude; even Pharaoh and all his army, slain by the sword, saith the L-rd
GOD
32:032
For I have put My terror in the land of the living; and he
shall be laid in the midst of the uncircumcised, with them that are slain by the
sword, even Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the L-rd GOD.
