Ezekiel 29:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 Son of man, set thy face against Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and prophesy against him, and against all Egypt.
3 Speak, and say, Thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I come against thee, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great [a]dragon, that lieth in the midst of his rivers, which hath said, The river is mine, and I have made it for myself.
4 But I will put [b]hooks in thy jaws, and I will cause the fish of thy rivers to stick unto thy scales, and I will draw thee out of the midst of thy rivers, and all the fish of thy rivers shall stick unto thy scales.
