Ezekiel 29:3-5
New International Version
3 Speak to him and say: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘I am against you, Pharaoh(A) king of Egypt,
you great monster(B) lying among your streams.
You say, “The Nile(C) belongs to me;
I made it for myself.”
4 But I will put hooks(D) 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.(E)
5 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(F) or picked up.
I will give you as food
to the beasts of the earth and the birds of the sky.(G)
Ezekiel 29:3-5
King James Version
3 Speak, and say, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against thee, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great dragon that lieth in the midst of his rivers, which hath said, My river is mine own, and I have made it for myself.
4 But I will put hooks in thy jaws, and I will cause the fish of thy rivers to stick unto thy scales, and I will bring thee up out of the midst of thy rivers, and all the fish of thy rivers shall stick unto thy scales.
5 And I will leave thee thrown into the wilderness, thee and all the fish of thy rivers: thou shalt fall upon the open fields; thou shalt not be brought together, nor gathered: I have given thee for meat to the beasts of the field and to the fowls of the heaven.
