Ezekiel 30:19-21
Living Bible
19 And so I will greatly punish Egypt and they shall know I am the Lord.”
20 A year later,[a] around the middle of March of the eleventh year of King Jehoiachin’s captivity, this message came to me:
21 “Son of dust, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh,[b] king of Egypt, and it has not been set nor put into a cast to make it strong enough to hold a sword again.
