Ezekiel 29:11-13

Lexham English Bible

¹¹ A foot of a human will not pass over it, and a foot of an animal will not pass over it, and so it will not be inhabited for forty years.^{[a] 12} And I will make the land of Egypt a desolation in the midst of desolated countries, and its cities to be in the midst of ruined cities. They will be a desolation for forty years, and I will scatter Egypt among the nations, and I will disperse them among the countries.”

¹³ For thus says the Lord Yahweh: “At the end of forty years I will gather Egypt from the peoples among whom they were scattered.
