Ezekiel 32:1-3
New American Standard Bible 1995
Lament over Pharaoh and Egypt
32 In the (A)twelfth year, in the twelfth month, on the first of the month, the word of the Lord came to me saying, 2 “Son of man, take up a (B)lamentation over Pharaoh king of Egypt and say to him,
‘You [a]compared yourself to a young (C)lion of the nations,
Yet you are like the (D)monster in the seas;
And you (E)burst forth in your rivers
And muddied the waters with your feet
And [b]fouled their rivers.’”
3 Thus says the Lord [c]God,
“Now I will (F)spread My net over you
With a company of many peoples,
And they shall lift you up in My net.
