1 On the twelfth day of the tenth month of the tenth year, the word of Adonai came to me saying:
2 “Son of man, set your face against Pharaoh king of Egypt. Prophesy against him and against all Egypt,
3 speak and say, thus says Adonai Elohim: ‘Behold, I am against you, Pharaoh King of Egypt, the great crocodile lying in his rivers, who says: “My Nile is my own —I made it for myself.”
4 I will put hooks in your jaws and make the fish of your streams stick to your scales. I will haul you up from within your rivers and all the fish of your streams will stick to your scales.
