Ezekiel 30:20-22

International Standard Version

Babylon’s Victory

²⁰ On the seventh day of the first month of the eleventh year of our captivity,^[a] a message came to me from the Lord. It had this to say: ²¹ “Son of Man, I’ve broken the arm of Pharaoh, king of Egypt. Look! It hasn’t been set in a splint for healing or wrapped with a bandage so it could be strong enough to hold a sword! ²² Therefore this is what the Lord God says:

‘I’m coming to attack Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and I’m going to break both of his arms, the strong one and the wounded one. That will make him drop his sword.
