Ezekiel 29:8-14

8Therefore thus says the Lord God, “Behold, I will abring upon you a sword and I will cut off from you man and beast. 9“The bland of Egypt will become a desolation and waste. Then they will know that I am the Lord.

Because
Lit he
you dsaid, ‘The Nile is mine, and I have made it,’
10therefore, behold, I am eagainst you and against your
Or Nile
rivers, and I will make the land of Egypt an utter waste and desolation, from Migdol to Syene and even to the border of
Lit Cush
Ethiopia.
11A man’s foot will hnot pass through it, and the foot of a beast will not pass through it, and it will not be inhabited for forty years. 12So I will make the land of Egypt a desolation in the imidst of desolated lands. And her cities, in the midst of cities that are laid waste, will be desolate forty years; and I will jscatter the Egyptians among the nations and disperse them among the lands.”

13For thus says the Lord God, “At the end of forty years I will kgather the Egyptians from the peoples
Lit where
among whom they were scattered.
14I will turn the fortunes of Egypt and make them return to the land of mPathros, to the land of their origin, and there they will be a lowly kingdom.
