1 And it came to pass in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, on the first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 “Son of man, take up a lamentation for Pharaoh king of Egypt, and say to him:‘You are like a young lion among the nations,And you are like a monster in the seas,Bursting forth in your rivers,Troubling the waters with your feet,And fouling their rivers.
3 ‘Thus says the Lord God:“I will therefore spread My net over you with a company of many people,And they will draw you up in My net.
4 Then I will leave you on the land;I will cast you out on the open fields,And cause to settle on you all the birds of the heavens.And with you I will fill the beasts of the whole earth.
5 I will lay your flesh on the mountains,And fill the valleys with your carcass.
