Ezekiel 29 — TOJB
29Verse 1In the tenth year, in the tenth month, in the twelfth day of the month, the Devar Hashem came unto me, saying,Verse 2Ben adam, set thy face against Pharaoh Melech Mitzrayim, and prophesy against him, and against all Mitzrayim:Verse 3Speak, and say, Thus saith Adonoi Hashem:
Hineni, I am against thee,
Pharaoh Melech Mitzrayim,
the great monster that lieth in the midst of his channels,
which hath said: My Nile is mine own,
and I have made it for myself.
Verse 4But I will put hooks in thy jaws,
and I will cause the dag (fish) of thy channels to stick unto thy scales,
and I will bring thee up out of the midst of thy river channels,
and all the dag (fish) of thy channels
shall stick unto thy scales.
Verse 5And I will throw thee out into the midbar,
thee and all the dag (fish) of thy river channels;
thou shalt fall upon the open sadeh;
thou shalt not be picked up together, nor gathered;
I have given thee for food
to the beasts of ha'aretz
and to the oph HaShomayim.Verse 6And all the inhabitants of Mitzrayim shall know that I am Hashem. Because they have been mishenet kaneh (a staff of reed) to Bais Yisroel,Verse 7When they took hold of thee by thy palm, thou didst splinter, and tear all their katef (shoulder); and when they leaned upon thee, thou broke, and madest all their loins unsteady.Verse 8Therefore thus saith Adonoi Hashem: Hineni, I will bring a cherev upon thee, and cut off adam and behemah from thee.Verse 9And Eretz Mitzrayim shall be desolate and in ruins; and they shall know that I am Hashem. Because he hath said: The Nile is Mine, and I have made it,Verse 10Hineni, therefore I am against thee, and against thy river channels, and I will make Eretz Mitzrayim utterly ruins and desolate, from Migdol to Seveneh even unto the border of Kush.Verse 11No regel of adam shall pass through it, nor regel of behemah shall pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited arba'im shanah.Verse 12And I will make Eretz Mitzrayim desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her towns among the towns that are laid waste shall be desolate arba'im shanah; and I will scatter the Mitzrayim among the Goyim, and will disperse them through the countries.Verse 13Yet thus saith Adonoi Hashem: At the end of arba'im shanah will I gather Mitzrayim from the peoples where they were scattered;Verse 14And I will bring back the captives of Mitzrayim, and will cause them to return into Eretz Patros, into the land of their ancestry; and they shall be there a lowly mamlachah.Verse 15It shall be the shefalah (lowliest) of the mamlechot; neither shall it exalt itself any more above the Goyim; for I will diminish them, that they shall no more rule over the Goyim.Verse 16And it shall be no more the confidence of Bais Yisroel, but shall bring their avon to remembrance, when they turned toward them; but they shall know that I am Adonoi Hashem.Verse 17And it came to pass in the seven and twentieth year, in the first month, in the first day of the month, the Davar Hashem came unto me, saying:Verse 18Ben adam, Nevukhadretzar Melech Bavel caused his army to avodah gedolah (labor strenuously) against Tzor (Tyre); every rosh was rubbed bare, and every katef (shoulder) was rubbed raw; yet had he no sachar (pay), nor his army, from Tzor (Tyre), for the avodah that he had served against it;Verse 19Therefore thus saith Adonoi Hashem: Hineni, I will give Eretz Mitzrayim unto Nevukhadretzar Melech Bavel; and he shall take her wealth, and take her plunder, and pillage her booty; and it shall be the sachar (wages) for his army.Verse 20I have given him Eretz Mitzrayim as his pay for which he worked, because they worked for Me, saith Adonoi Hashem.Verse 21In that day will I cause the keren (horn, strength) of Bais Yisroel to atzmiach (branch, sprout), and I will give thee the opening of the mouth in the midst of them; and they shall know that I am Hashem.
Hineni, I am against thee,
Pharaoh Melech Mitzrayim,
the great monster that lieth in the midst of his channels,
which hath said: My Nile is mine own,
and I have made it for myself.
Verse 4But I will put hooks in thy jaws,
and I will cause the dag (fish) of thy channels to stick unto thy scales,
and I will bring thee up out of the midst of thy river channels,
and all the dag (fish) of thy channels
shall stick unto thy scales.
Verse 5And I will throw thee out into the midbar,
thee and all the dag (fish) of thy river channels;
thou shalt fall upon the open sadeh;
thou shalt not be picked up together, nor gathered;
I have given thee for food
to the beasts of ha'aretz
and to the oph HaShomayim.Verse 6And all the inhabitants of Mitzrayim shall know that I am Hashem. Because they have been mishenet kaneh (a staff of reed) to Bais Yisroel,Verse 7When they took hold of thee by thy palm, thou didst splinter, and tear all their katef (shoulder); and when they leaned upon thee, thou broke, and madest all their loins unsteady.Verse 8Therefore thus saith Adonoi Hashem: Hineni, I will bring a cherev upon thee, and cut off adam and behemah from thee.Verse 9And Eretz Mitzrayim shall be desolate and in ruins; and they shall know that I am Hashem.
