New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Ezekiel 30
20 In the eleventh year, in the first month, on the seventh of the month, the word of the Lord came to me saying,
21 "Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and, behold, it has not been bound up for healing or wrapped with a bandage, that it may be strong to hold the sword.
22 Therefore thus says the Lord God, ’Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt and will break his arms, both the strong and the broken; and I will make the sword fall from his hand.
23 I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations and disperse them among the lands.
24 For I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon and put My sword in his hand; and I will break the arms of Pharaoh, so that he will groan before him with the groanings of a wounded man.
25 Thus I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, but the arms of Pharaoh will fall. Then they will know that I am the Lord, when I put My sword into the hand of the king of Babylon and he stretches it out against the land of Egypt.
26 When I scatter the Egyptians among the nations and disperse them among the lands, then they will know that I am the Lord.’"
Ezekiel 31
1 In the eleventh year, in the third month, on the first of the month, the word of the Lord came to me saying,
2 "Son of man, say to Pharaoh king of Egypt and to his hordes, ’Whom are you like in your greatness?
3 ’Behold, Assyria was a cedar in Lebanon With beautiful branches and forest shade, And very high, And its top was among the clouds.
4 ’The waters made it grow, the deep made it high. With its rivers it continually extended all around its planting place, And sent out its channels to all the trees of the field.
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
