New Testament

Ezekiel 32:6-15 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

6. I will drench the land,pouring out your blood on the mountain;filling up the ravines with you.

7. When I extinguish you,I will cover the heavensand darken all its stars.The sun I will cover with clouds;the moon will not give light.

8. All the shining lights in the heavensI will darken over you;I will spread darkness over your land—oracle of the Lord God.

9. I will trouble the heartsof many peoples,When I bring you captiveamong the nations,to lands you do not know.

10. I will fill many nations with horror;their kings will shudder at you,when I brandish my sword in their faces.They will tremble violentlyfearing for their lives on the day of your fall.

11. For thus says the Lord God:The sword of the king of Babylonwill come against you.

12. I will cut down your hordeswith the swords of warriors,all of them, ruthless nations;They will lay waste the glory of Egypt,and all its hordes will be destroyed.

13. I will wipe out all the livestockfrom the banks of its many waters;No human foot will disturb them again,no animal hoof stir them up.

14. Then I will make their waters clearand their streams flow like oil—oracle of the Lord God.

15. When I make Egypt a wastelandand the land destitute of everything,When I strike down all its inhabitantsthey shall know that I am the Lord.
