Ezekiel 30:16-18

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁶ And I will make a fire in Egypt: Pelusium shall be in pain like a woman in labour, and Alexandria shall be laid waste, and in Memphis there shall be daily distresses.

¹⁷ The young men of Heliopolis, and of Bubastus shall fall by the sword, and they themselves shall go into captivity.

¹⁸ And in Taphnis the day shall be darkened, when I shall break there the sceptres of Egypt, and the pride of her power shall cease in her: a cloud shall cover her, and her daughters shall be led into captivity.
