Ezekiel 32:1-4 ▼

1 In the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, on the first day of the month, the word of the LORD came to me:

2 “Son of man, lament for Pharaoh king of Egypt and say to him, ‘You compare yourself to a lion of the nations, but you are like a monster in the seas. You thrash about in your rivers, churn up the waters with your feet, and muddy the rivers.

3 “ ‘This is what the Lord GOD says: I will spread my net over you with an assembly of many peoples, and they will haul you up in my net.

4 I will abandon you on the land and throw you onto the open field. I will cause all the birds of the sky to settle on you and let the wild creatures of the entire earth eat their fill of you.
