Ezekiel 30:24-26

New International Reader's Version

²⁴ I will make the arms of the king of Babylon stronger. I will put my sword in his hand. But I will break the arms of Pharaoh. And he will groan in front of Nebuchadnezzar. He will cry out like someone dying from his wounds. ²⁵ I will make the arms of the king of Babylon stronger. But the arms of Pharaoh will not be able to help Egypt. I will put my sword in Nebuchadnezzar’s hand. He will get ready to use it against Egypt. Then they will know that I am the Lord. ²⁶ I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations. I will send them to other countries. Then they will know that I am the Lord.”
