And it came to passin the twelfthyear, in the twelfthmonth, in the first day of the month, that the wordof the LORDcameuntome, saying, Sonof man, take upa lamentationforPharaohkingof Egypt, and sayuntohim, Thou art likea young lionof the nations, and thou art as a whalein the seas: and thou camest forthwith thy rivers, and troubledstthe waterswith thy feet, and fouledsttheir rivers. Thussaiththe LordGOD; I will therefore spread outmy netoverthee with a companyof manypeople; and they shall bring thee upin my net. Then will I leavethee upon the land, I will cast thee forthuponthe openfield, and will cause allthe fowlsof the heavento remainuponthee, and I will fillthe beastsof the wholeearthwiththee. And I will laythy fleshuponthe mountains, and fillthe valleyswith thy height. I will also waterwith thy bloodthe landwherein thou swimmest, even tothe mountains; and the riversshall be fullofthee. And when I shall put thee out, I will coverthe heaven, and make the stars thereof dark; I will coverthe sunwith a cloud, and the moonshall notgiveher light. Allthe brightlightsof heavenwill I make darkoverthee, and setdarknessuponthy land, saiththe LordGOD. I will also vexthe heartsof manypeople, when I shall bringthy destructionamong the nations, intothe countrieswhichthou hast notknown. Yea, I will make many people amazedatthee, and their kingsshall be horribly afraidforthee, when I shall brandishmy swordbeforethem; and they shall trembleat every moment, every manfor his own life, in the dayof thy fall. Forthussaiththe LordGOD; The swordof the kingof Babylonshall come uponthee. By the swordsof the mightywill I cause thy multitudeto fall, the terribleof the nations, allof them: and they shall spoilthe pompof Egypt, and allthe multitudethereof shall be destroyed. I will destroyalso allthe beaststhereof from besidethe greatwaters; neithershall the footof mantroublethem any more, northe hoovesof beaststroublethem. Thenwill I make their waters deep, and cause their riversto runlike oil, saiththe LordGOD. When I shall makethe landof Egyptdesolate, and the countryshall be destituteof that whereof it was full, when I shall smiteallthem that dwelltherein, then shall they knowthatI am the LORD. This is the lamentationwherewith they shall lamenther: the daughtersof the nationsshall lamenther: they shall lamentfor her, even forEgypt, and forallher multitude, saiththe LordGOD. It came to passalso in the twelfthyear, in the fifteenth day of the month, that the wordof the LORDcameuntome, saying, Sonof man, wailforthe multitudeof Egypt, and cast them down, even her, and the daughtersof the famousnations, untothe nether partsof the earth, withthem that go downinto the pit. Whomdost thou pass in beauty? go down, and be thou laidwiththe uncircumcised. They shall fallin the midstof them that are slainby the sword: she is deliveredto the sword: drawher and allher multitudes. The strongamong the mightyshall speakto him out of the midstof hellwiththem that helphim: they are gone down, they lieuncircumcised, slainby the sword. Asshur is thereand allher company: his graves are abouthim: allof them slain, fallenby the sword: Whosegravesare setin the sidesof the pit, and her companyisround abouther grave: allof them slain, fallenby the sword, whichcausedterrorin the landof the living. There is Elamand allher multituderound abouther grave, allof them slain, fallenby the sword, whichare gone downuncircumcisedintothe nether partsof the earth, whichcausedtheir terrorin the landof the living; yet have they bornetheir shamewiththem that go downto the pit. They have sether a bedin the midstof the slainwith allher multitude: her graves are round abouthim: allof them uncircumcised, slainby the sword: thoughtheir terrorwas causedin the landof the living, yet have they bornetheir shamewiththem that go downto the pit: he is putin the midstof them that be slain. There is Meshech, Tubal, and allher multitude: her graves are round abouthim: allof them uncircumcised, slainby the sword, thoughthey causedtheir terrorin the landof the living. And they shall notliewiththe mighty that are fallenof the uncircumcised, whichare gone downto hellwith their weaponsof war: and they have laidtheir swordsundertheir heads, but their iniquitiesshall beupontheir bones, though they were the terrorof the mightyin the landof the living. Yea, thoushalt be brokenin the midstof the uncircumcised, and shalt liewith them that are slainwith the sword. There is Edom, her kings, and allher princes, whichwith their mightare laidby them that were slainby the sword: theyshall liewiththe uncircumcised, and withthem that go downto the pit. There be the princesof the north, allof them, and allthe Zidonians, whichare gone downwiththe slain; with their terrorthey are ashamedof their might; and they lieuncircumcisedwith them that be slainby the sword, and beartheir shamewiththem that go downto the pit. Pharaohshall seethem, and shall be comfortedoverallhis multitude, even Pharaohand allhis armyslainby the sword, saiththe LordGOD. ForI have causedmy terrorin the landof the living: and he shall be laidin the midstof the uncircumcisedwith them that are slainwith the sword, even Pharaohand allhis multitude, saiththe LordGOD.
