19. Thus I will execute judgments on Egypt. Then they will know that I am the Lord.”
20. In the eleventh year, in the first month, on the seventh day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me:
21. “Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and behold, it has not been bound up, to heal it by binding it with a bandage, so that it may become strong to wield 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 arm and the one that was broken, and I will make the sword fall from his hand.
23. I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations and 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 the arms of Pharaoh, and he will groan before him like a man mortally wounded.
25. I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, but the arms of Pharaoh shall fall. Then they shall 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. And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations and disperse them throughout the countries. Then they will know that I am the Lord.”
