Ezekiel 32:1
Verse 1 of 32. The 32nd of 48 chapters in Ezekiel, in The Major Prophets.
1In the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, in the first day of the month, the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
2“Son of man, take up a lamentation over Pharaoh king of Egypt, and tell him, ‘You were likened to a young lion of the nations; yet you are as a monster in the seas. You broke out with your rivers, and troubled the waters with your feet, and fouled their rivers.’”
3The Lord GOD says: “I will spread out my net on you with a company of many peoples. They will bring you up in my net.
4I will leave you on the land. I will cast you out on the open field, and will cause all the birds of the sky to settle on you. I will satisfy the animals of the whole earth with you.
5I will lay your flesh on the mountains, and fill the valleys with your height.
