Lament over Mitzrayim's fall

30:1 Dvar YHWH (יהוה) came again unto me, saying,

30:2 Ben Adam, prophesy and say,

Thus saith Adonay (אדני) YHWH (יהוה);

Howl ye, Woe worth the day!

30:3 For the day [is] near, even the Yom YHWH (יהוה) [is] near, a cloudy day; it shall be the time of the Goyim.

30:4 And the sword shall come upon Mitzrayim, and great pain shall be in Kush, when the slain shall fall in Mitzrayim, and they shall take away her multitude, and her foundations shall be broken down.

30:5 Kush, and Libya, and Lydia, and all the mingled people, and Chuv, and the men of the land that is in league, shall fall with them by the sword.

30:6 Thus saith YHWH (יהוה);

They also that uphold Mitzrayim shall fall; and the pride of her power shall come down: from Migdol to Aswan shall they fall within her by the cherev, saith Adonay (אדני) YHWH (יהוה).

30:7 And they shall be desolate in the midst of the countries [that are] desolate, and her cities shall be in the midst of the cities [that are] wasted.

30:8 And they shall know that Ani YHWH (יהוה), when I have set a fire in Mitzrayim, and [when] all her helpers shall be destroyed.

30:9 In that day shall messengers go forth from me in ships to make the careless Kush afraid, and great pain shall come upon them, as in the day of Mitzrayim: for, lo, it cometh.

30:10 Thus saith Adonay (אדני) YHWH (יהוה);

I will also make the multitude of Mitzrayim to cease by the hand of Nevukadretztzar melekh Bavel.

30:11 He and His people with him, the terrible of the nations, shall be brought to destroy the land: and they shall draw their swords against Mitzrayim, and fill the land with the slain.

30:12 And I will make the rivers dry, and sell the land into the hand of the rasha (wicked): and I will make the land waste, and all that is therein, by the hand of strangers: I YHWH (יהוה) have spoken [it].

30:13 Thus saith Adonay (אדני) YHWH (יהוה);

I will also destroy the gillulim (idols), and I will cause [their] images to cease out of Noph; and there shall be no more a prince of the eretz Mitzrayim: and I will put a fear in the eretz Mitzrayim.

30:14 And I will make Pathros desolate, and will set fire in Zoan, and will execute Shofatim in No.

30:15 And I will pour My fury upon Sin, the strength of Mitzrayim; and I will cut off the multitude of No.

30:16 And I will set fire in Mitzrayim: Sin shall have great pain, and No shall be rent asunder, and Noph [shall have] distresses daily.

30:17 The young men of Aven and of Pibeseth shall fall by the sword: and these [cities] shall go into captivity.

30:18 At Tehaphnehes also the day shall be darkened, when I shall break there the yokes of Mitzrayim: and the pomp of her strength shall cease in her: as for her, a cloud shall cover her, and her banot shall go into captivity.

30:19 Thus will I execute Shofatim in Mitzrayim: and they shall know that Ani YHWH (יהוה).

Hashem promises Bavel victory over Mitzrayim

30:20 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first [month](Nisan/ Aviv), in the seventh [day] of the month, [that] 7/1/587 BCE

Dvar YHWH (יהוה) came unto me, saying,

30:21 Ben Adam, I have broken the arm of Paroh melekh Mitzrayim; and, Behold, it shall not be bound up to be healed, to put a roller to bind it, to make it strong to hold the sword.

30:22 Therefore thus saith Adonay (אדני) YHWH (יהוה); Hinnei, I [am] against Paroh melekh Mitzrayim, and will break his arms, the strong, and that which was broken; and I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand.

30:23 And I will scatter the Mitzrites among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.

30:24 And I will strengthen the arms of the melekh Bavel, and put My sword in his hand: but I will break Paroh's arms, and he shall groan before him with the groanings of a deadly wounded [man].

30:25 But I will strengthen the arms of the melekh Bavel, and the arms of Paroh shall fall down; and they shall know that Ani YHWH (יהוה), when I shall put My sword into the hand of the melekh Bavel, and he shall stretch it out upon the eretz Mitzrayim.

30:26 And I will scatter the Mitzrites among the nations, and disperse them among the countries; and they shall know that Ani YHWH (יהוה).
