1 In the tenth year, on the twelfth day of the tenth month, the Lord’s word came to me:
2 Human one, face Pharaoh, Egypt’s king, and prophesy against him and against all of Egypt.
3 Speak and say, The Lord God proclaims:I’m against you, Pharaoh, Egypt’s king,great crocodile lurkingin the Nile’s canals,who says, "The Nile is all mine;I made it for myself!"
4 I will set hooks in your jaws;I will make the fish from the Nile’s canals cling to your scales.I will drag you out of the Nile’s canals,and also all the fish from the Nile’s canalsclinging to your scales.
