Ezekiel 32:16

A Lament For Pharaoh, King Of Egypt

¹⁵ When I make the land of Egypt a desolation,
so that it is emptied of everything in it,
when I strike down all who live there,
then they will know that I am Yahweh. ¹⁶ “This is a lament that will be chanted; the women of the nations will chant it. They will chant it over Egypt and all its hordes.” This is the declaration of the Lord God. ¹⁷ In the twelfth year, on the fifteenth day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me:

Says the Lord

Declares The Lord

Egypt

Jehovah

and muddy the rivers.”
