to cease by the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon.

am
the L

month,
in the seventh
day
of the month,
that
the word of the L
ORD
came unto me, saying,
21
Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh
king of Egypt; and, lo, it shall not be bound up to be healed, to put a roller to bind it, to make it
strong to hold the sword.
22
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I
am
against Pharaoh king
of Egypt, and will break his arms, the strong, and that which was broken; and I will cause the sword
to fall out of his hand.
23
And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them
through the countries.
24
And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and put my sword
in his hand: but I will break Pharaoh’s arms, and he shall groan before him with the groanings of
a deadly wounded
man.
25
But I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and the arms of
Pharaoh shall fall down; and they shall know that I
am
the L
ORD
, when I shall put my sword into
the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall stretch it out upon the land of Egypt.
26
And I will
scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and disperse them among the countries; and they shall
know that I
am
the L
ORD
.
