13 This is what the Lord God says. I will destroy the filthy idols[a] and eliminate from Memphis the gods that are not gods. There will no longer be a ruler in the land of Egypt, and I will put fear into the land of Egypt. 14 I will desolate Upper Egypt.[b] I will set fire to Zoan and inflict punishments on Thebes.[c] 15 I will pour out my wrath on Pelusium, the stronghold of Egypt, and I will cut off the horde of Thebes.

Footnotes

  1. Ezekiel 30:13 Or the manure gods. See the note at 6:4.
  2. Ezekiel 30:14 Southern Egypt is called Upper Egypt because it is upstream on the Nile.
  3. Ezekiel 30:14 Hebrew No. The English names of Egyptian cities are traditionally based on the Greek forms of the names, which are quite different from the Hebrew forms. The translation will not footnote all of these instances.
