Egypt

¹In the tenth year, in the tenth month , in the twelfth day of the month, the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, ²Son of man, set thy face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against him, and against all Egypt:[ † ]Ezekiel 28:21Isaiah 19:1Jeremiah 25:19Jeremiah 46:2-25Ezekiel 30:1-32:32Joel 3:19 ³speak, and say, Thus saith the Lord God ; Behold, I am against thee, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great dragon that lieth in the midst of his rivers, which hath said, My river is mine own, and I have made it for myself.[ † ]Jeremiah 44:30Ezekiel 28:22Ezekiel 29:10Psalms 74:13-14Isaiah 37:1Isaiah 51:9Ezekiel 32:2Ezekiel 28:2 ⁴But 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.[ † ]2 Kings 19:28Isaiah 37:29Ezekiel 38:4 ⁵And I will leave thee thrown into the wilderness, thee and all the fish of thy rivers: thou shalt fall upon the open fields; thou shalt not be brought together, nor gathered: I have given thee for meat to the beasts of the field and to the fowls of the heaven.[ † ]Ezekiel 32:4-6Jeremiah 8:2Jeremiah 16:4Jeremiah 25:33Jeremiah 7:33Jeremiah 34:20Ezekiel 39:4 ⁶And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I am the Lord , because they have been a staff of reed to the house of Israel.[ † ]2 Kings 18:21Isaiah 36:6Ezekiel 17:15 ⁷When they took hold of thee by thy hand, thou didst break, and rend all their shoulder: and when they leaned upon thee, thou brakest, and madest all their loins to be at a stand.[ † ]Jeremiah 37:5-7, 11Ezekiel 17:17

⁸Therefore thus saith the Lord God ; Behold, I will bring a sword upon thee, and cut off man and beast out of thee.[ † ]Jeremiah 46:13Ezekiel 14:17Ezekiel 32:11-13 ⁹And the land of Egypt shall be desolate and waste; and they shall know that I am the Lord : because he hath said, The river is mine, and I have made it .[ † ]Ezekiel 30:7-8 ¹⁰Behold, therefore I am against thee, and against thy rivers, and I will make the land of Egypt utterly waste and desolate, from the tower of Syene even unto the border of Ethiopia.[ † ]Ezekiel 30:12Ezekiel 30:6 ¹¹No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of beast shall pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty years.[ † ]Jeremiah 43:11-12Jeremiah 46:19Ezekiel 32:13 ¹²And 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.[ † ]Jeremiah 25:15-19Jeremiah 27:6-11Ezekiel 30:7-26Jeremiah 46:19Ezekiel 30:23-26

¹³Yet thus saith the Lord God ; At the end of forty years will I gather the Egyptians from the people whither they were scattered:[ † ]Isaiah 19:23Jeremiah 46:26 ¹⁴and I will bring again the captivity of Egypt, and will cause them to return into the land of Pathros, into the land of their habitation; and they shall be there a base kingdom.[ † ]Ezekiel 17:6-14 ¹⁵It shall be the basest of the kingdoms; neither shall it exalt itself any more above the nations: for I will diminish them, that they shall no more rule over the nations. ¹⁶And it shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel, which bringeth their iniquity to remembrance, when they shall look after them: but they shall know that I am the Lord God .[ † ]Isaiah 30:2-3Isaiah 36:4-6Lamentations 4:17Ezekiel 17:15Ezekiel 29:6

¹⁷And it came to pass in the seven and twentieth year, in the first month , in the first day of the month, the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, ¹⁸Son of man, Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon caused his army to serve a great service against Tyrus: every head was made bald, and every shoulder was peeled: yet had he no wages, nor his army, for Tyrus, for the service that he had served against it:[ † ]Jeremiah 25:9Jeremiah 27:6Ezekiel 26:7-12Jeremiah 48:37Ezekiel 27:31 ¹⁹therefore thus saith the Lord God ; Behold, I will give the land of Egypt unto Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon; and he shall take her multitude, and take her spoil, and take her prey; and it shall be the wages for his army.[ † ]Jeremiah 43:10-13Ezekiel 30:10 ²⁰I have given him the land of Egypt for his labour wherewith he served against it, because they wrought for me, saith the Lord God .[ † ]Isaiah 10:6-7Isaiah 45:1-3Jeremiah 25:9

²¹In that day will I cause the horn of the house of Israel to bud forth, and I will give thee the opening of the mouth in the midst of them; and they shall know that I am the Lord .[ † ]1 Samuel 2:10Psalms 92:10Psalms 132:17Ezekiel 24:27Amos 3:7-8Luke 21:15
