1 In the tenth year, in the tenth month, on the twelfth day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me:
2 “Son of man, turn toward Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against him and against all Egypt.
3 Tell them, ‘This is what the sovereign Lord says:“‘Look, I am against you, Pharaoh king of Egypt,the great monster lying in the midst of its waterways,who has said, “My Nile is my own, I made it for myself.”
4 I will put hooks in your jawsand stick the fish of your waterways to your scales.I will haul you up from the midst of your waterways,and all the fish of your waterways will stick to your scales.
