15. I will pour my wrath on Sin,the stronghold of Egypt.I will cut off the multitude of No.
16. I will set a fire in EgyptSin will be in great anguish.No will be broken up.Memphis will have adversaries in the daytime.
17. The young men of Aven and of Pibeseth will fall by the sword.They will go into captivity.
18. At Tehaphnehes also the day will withdraw itself,when I break the yokes of Egypt, there.The pride of her power will cease in her.As for her, a cloud will cover her,and her daughters will go into captivity.
19. Thus I will execute judgements on Egypt.Then they will know that I am the Lord.”’”
20. In the eleventh year, in the first month, in the seventh day of the month, the Lord’s word came to me, saying,
21. “Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt. Behold, it has not been bound up, to apply medicines, to put a bandage to bind it, that it become 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, the strong arm, and that which was broken. I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand.
23. I will scatter the Egyptians amongst the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
24. 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 the king of Babylon with the groaning of a mortally wounded man.
25. I will hold up the arms of the king of Babylon; and the arms of Pharaoh will fall down. 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 on the land of Egypt.
