Ezekiel 30:20-26 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

20. And it came to be in the eleventh year, in the first month, on the seventh of the month, that the word of יהוה came to me, saying,

21. “Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh sovereign of Mitsrayim. And see, it has not been bound up for healing, to put a bandage to bind it, to make it strong to hold a sword.

22. “Therefore thus said the Master יהוה, ‘See, I am against Pharaoh sovereign of Mitsrayim, and shall break his arms, both the strong one and the one that was broken, and shall make the sword fall out of his hand,

23. and shall scatter the Mitsrites among the nations, and disperse them throughout the lands,

24. and strengthen the arms of the sovereign of Baḇel. And I shall put My sword in his hand. And I shall break Pharaoh’s arms, and he shall groan before him with the groanings of the slain before him.

25. ‘And I shall strengthen the arms of the sovereign of Baḇel, but the arms of Pharaoh shall fall. And they shall know that I am יהוה, when I put My sword into the hand of the sovereign of Baḇel and he shall stretch it out against the land of Mitsrayim.

26. ‘And I shall scatter the Mitsrites among the nations, and I shall disperse them throughout the lands. And they shall know that I am יהוה.’ ”
