17. And then in the twelfth year, on the fifteenth day of the month, the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
18. “Son of man, mourn over the hordes of Egypt, and make her go down, and with her the daughters of mighty nations, down to the deep underworld with the people going down to the grave.
19. You are more lovely than whom? Go down and be laid in rest with the uncircumcised.
20. In the midst of the people slain by the sword it is given they will fall to a sword; they carried her off and all of her hordes.
21. The chiefs of the warriors will speak to him from the middle of Sheol; with his helpers they have gone down; the uncircumcised lie still, those slain by the sword.
22. Assyria is there and all of its assembly; all around it are its graves, all of them killed, those fallen by the sword,
23. who will be given its graves in the remote areas of the pit, and its assembly will be all around its grave, all of them killed, fallen by the sword, those who spread terror in the land of the living.
24. Elam is there and all of its hordes, all around its grave, all of them dead who fell by the sword, those who went down uncircumcised to the depths of the underworld, those who spread their terror to the land of the living, and now they bear their disgrace with the people going down to the grave.
