1 In the tenth year, in the tenth month, in the twelfth day of the month, the word of the Lord came unto me, saying:
2 Son of man, set thy face against Pharaoh king of Egypt and prophesy against him, and against all Egypt.
3 Speak and say, Thus hath the Lord GOD said: Behold, I am against thee, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great dragon that lies in the midst of his rivers, who has said, My river is my own, and I have made it for myself.
4 But I will put hooks in thy jaws, and I will cause the fish of thy rivers to stick unto thy scales, and I will bring thee up out of the midst of thy rivers, and all the fish of thy rivers shall come out stuck onto thy scales.
