Ezekiel 30:20-26

Egypt Shall Fall to Babylon

20 ^aIn the eleventh year, in the first month, on the seventh day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me: 21 ^b“Son of man, ^cI have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and behold, ^dit has not been bound up, to heal it by binding it with a bandage, so that it may become strong to wield the sword. 22 Therefore thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt and ^ewill break his arms, both the strong arm and the one that was broken, and I will make the sword fall from his hand. 23 ^fI will scatter the Egyptians among the nations and disperse them through the countries. 24 And ^gI will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon and put ^hmy sword in his hand, but I will break the arms of Pharaoh, and he will groan before him ⁱlike a man mortally wounded. 25 I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, but the arms of Pharaoh shall fall. ^jThen they shall know that I am the Lord, ^kwhen I put my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon and he stretches it out against the land of Egypt. 26 And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations and disperse them throughout the countries. Then they will know that I am the Lord.”
