Context Readings

A Lament Over The Nation And Land Of Egypt

20 And it happened in the eleventh year, in the first month, in the seventh of the month, the Word of Jehovah came to me, saying, 21 Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt. And lo, it shall not lie bound up to give healing, to put a bandage to bind it, to make it strong to hold the sword. 22 So the Lord Jehovah says this: Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and will break his arms, the strong one and the broken one. And I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand.
