Ezekiel 29:1-21
In the tenth year, in the tenth month on the twelfth day, the word of the Lord came to me:“ Son of man, set your face against Pharaoh king of Egypt and prophesy against him and against all Egypt.Speak to him and say:‘ This is what the Sovereign Lord says:“‘ I am against you, Pharaoh king of Egypt, you great monster lying among your streams. You say,“ The Nile belongs to me; I made it for myself.”But I will put hooks in your jaws and make the fish of your streams stick to your scales. I will pull you out from among your streams, with all the fish sticking to your scales.I will leave you in the desert, you and all the fish of your streams. You will fall on the open field and not be gathered or picked up. I will give you as food to the beasts of the earth and the birds of the sky.Then all who live in Egypt will know that I am the Lord.“‘ You have been a staff of reed for the people of Israel.When they grasped you with their hands, you splintered and you tore open their shoulders; when they leaned on you, you broke and their backs were wrenched.“‘ Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I will bring a sword against you and kill both man and beast.Egypt will become a desolate wasteland. Then they will know that I am the Lord.“‘ Because you said,“ The Nile is mine; I made it,”therefore I am against you and against your streams, and I will make the land of Egypt a ruin and a desolate waste from Migdol to Aswan, as far as the border of Cush.The foot of neither man nor beast will pass through it; no one will live there for forty years.I will make the land of Egypt desolate among devastated lands, and her cities will lie desolate forty years among ruined cities. And I will disperse the Egyptians among the nations and scatter them through the countries.“‘ Yet this is what the Sovereign Lord says: At the end of forty years I will gather the Egyptians from the nations where they were scattered.I will bring them back from captivity and return them to Upper Egypt, the land of their ancestry. There they will be a lowly kingdom.It will be the lowliest of kingdoms and will never again exalt itself above the other nations. I will make it so weak that it will never again rule over the nations.Egypt will no longer be a source of confidence for the people of Israel but will be a reminder of their sin in turning to her for help. Then they will know that I am the Sovereign Lord.’”In the twenty-seventh year, in the first month on the first day, the word of the Lord came to me:“ Son of man, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon drove his army in a hard campaign against Tyre; every head was rubbed bare and every shoulder made raw. Yet he and his army got no reward from the campaign he led against Tyre.Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am going to give Egypt to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and he will carry off its wealth. He will loot and plunder the land as pay for his army.I have given him Egypt as a reward for his efforts because he and his army did it for me, declares the Sovereign Lord.“ On that day I will make a horn grow for the Israelites, and I will open your mouth among them. Then they will know that I am the Lord.”

Jeremiah 46:1-28
This is the word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the nations:Concerning Egypt: This is the message against the army of Pharaoh Necho king of Egypt, which was defeated at Carchemish on the Euphrates River by Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah:“ Prepare your shields, both large and small, and march out for battle!Harness the horses, mount the steeds! Take your positions with helmets on! Polish your spears, put on your armor!What do I see? They are terrified, they are retreating, their warriors are defeated. They flee in haste without looking back, and there is terror on every side,” declares the Lord.“ The swift cannot flee nor the strong escape. In the north by the River Euphrates they stumble and fall.“ Who is this that rises like the Nile, like rivers of surging waters?Egypt rises like the Nile, like rivers of surging waters. She says,‘ I will rise and cover the earth; I will destroy cities and their people.’Charge, you horses! Drive furiously, you charioteers! March on, you warriors— men of Cush and Put who carry shields, men of Lydia who draw the bow.But that day belongs to the Lord, the Lord Almighty— a day of vengeance, for vengeance on his foes. The sword will devour till it is satisfied, till it has quenched its thirst with blood. For the Lord, the Lord Almighty, will offer sacrifice in the land of the north by the River Euphrates.“ Go up to Gilead and get balm, Virgin Daughter Egypt. But you try many medicines in vain; there is no healing for you.The nations will hear of your shame; your cries will fill the earth. One warrior will stumble over another; both will fall down together.”This is the message the Lord spoke to Jeremiah the prophet about the coming of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to attack Egypt:“ Announce this in Egypt, and proclaim it in Migdol; proclaim it also in Memphis and Tahpanhes:‘ Take your positions and get ready, for the sword devours those around you.’Why will your warriors be laid low? They cannot stand, for the Lord will push them down.They will stumble repeatedly; they will fall over each other. They will say,‘ Get up, let us go back to our own people and our native lands, away from the sword of the oppressor.’There they will exclaim,‘ Pharaoh king of Egypt is only a loud noise; he has missed his opportunity.’“ As surely as I live,” declares the King, whose name is the Lord Almighty,“ one will come who is like Tabor among the mountains, like Carmel by the sea.Pack your belongings for exile, you who live in Egypt, for Memphis will be laid waste and lie in ruins without inhabitant.“ Egypt is a beautiful heifer, but a gadfly is coming against her from the north.The mercenaries in her ranks are like fattened calves. They too will turn and flee together, they will not stand their ground, for the day of disaster is coming upon them, the time for them to be punished.Egypt will hiss like a fleeing serpent as the enemy advances in force; they will come against her with axes, like men who cut down trees.They will chop down her forest,” declares the Lord,“ dense though it be. They are more numerous than locusts, they cannot be counted.Daughter Egypt will be put to shame, given into the hands of the people of the north.”The Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says:“ I am about to bring punishment on Amon god of Thebes, on Pharaoh, on Egypt and her gods and her kings, and on those who rely on Pharaoh.I will give them into the hands of those who want to kill them— Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and his officers. Later, however, Egypt will be inhabited as in times past,” declares the Lord.“ Do not be afraid, Jacob my servant; do not be dismayed, Israel. I will surely save you out of a distant place, your descendants from the land of their exile. Jacob will again have peace and security, and no one will make him afraid.Do not be afraid, Jacob my servant, for I am with you,” declares the Lord.“ Though I completely destroy all the nations among which I scatter you, I will not completely destroy you. I will discipline you but only in due measure; I will not let you go entirely unpunished.”

By the power of your arm they will be as still as a stone— until your people pass by, Lord, until the people you bought pass by.

As a shepherd picks his garment clean of lice, so he will pick Egypt clean and depart.There in the temple of the sun in Egypt he will demolish the sacred pillars and will burn down the temples of the gods of Egypt.’”
