Ezekiel 29:3-5

Revised Geneva Translation

³ “Speak, and say, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD: “Behold, I come against you, Pharaoh, king of Egypt, the great dragon who lies in the midst of his rivers, who has said, ‘The river is mine and I have made it for myself.’

⁴ “But I will put hooks in your jaws; and I will cause the fish of your rivers to stick to your scales; and I will draw you out of the midst of your rivers; and all the fish of your rivers shall stick to your scales.

⁵ “And I will leave you in the wilderness, you and all the fish of your rivers. You shall fall upon the open field. You shall neither be brought together nor gathered. I have given you as food to the beasts of the field and to the birds of the sky.
