² Thou, son of man, take wailing on Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and thou shalt say to him, Thou were made like to a lion of heathen men, and to a dragon which is in the sea. And thou winnowest with horn in thy floods, and thou disturbedest waters with thy feet, and defouledest the floods of those. (Thou, son of man, take up a wailing for Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and thou shalt say to him, Thou were made like a lion of the heathen, and like a dragon which is in the sea. And thou winnowest with thy horn in the River, and thou disturbedest the waters with thy feet, and hast defiled those rivers.)

³ Therefore the Lord God saith these things, I shall spread abroad my net [up]on thee in the multitude of many peoples, and I shall draw thee out in my net;

⁴ and I shall cast forth thee into [the] earth. On the face of the field I shall cast thee away, and I shall make all the volatiles of heaven to dwell on thee, and I shall fill of thee the beasts of all (the) earth. (and I shall throw thee forth onto the ground. Yea, I shall throw thee upon the face of the field, and I shall make all the birds of the heavens, or of the air, to live upon thee, and I shall fill all the beasts of the field with thee.)
