¹ In the tenth yeare, vpon the twelueth daye of the tenth moneth, the worde of the Lorde came vnto me, sayenge: ² O thou sonne of man (set now thy face agaynst Pharao the kynge of Egypte) Prophecye agaynst him, and agaynst the whole lande of Egypt. ³ Speake, and tell him, thus sayeth the Lorde God: behold, O pharao thou kynge of Egypte, I will vpon the thou great dragon, that lyest in the waters: thou that sayest: the water is myne. I haue made it my selfe. ⁴ I will put an hoke in thy chawes and hange all the fysh in thy waters vpon thy skales: after that I will drawe the out of thy waters, yee, and all the fysh of thy waters that hange vpon thy skales. ⁵ I will cast the out vpon the drye lande wt the fysh of thy waters, so that thou shalt lye vpon the feld. Thou shalt not be gathered ner taken vp: but shalt be meate for the beastes of the felde, & for the foules of the ayre: ⁶ that all they which dwell in Egypte, maye knowe, that I am the Lorde: because thou hast bene a staf of rede to the house of Israel. ⁷ When they toke holde of the with theyr hande thou brakest & pryckedst them on euery syde: and yf they leaned vpon the, thou brakest and hurtdest the reynes of theyr backes. ⁸ Therfore, thus sayeth the Lorde God: beholde, I wyll brynge a swearde vpon the, & rote out of the bothe man & beast. ⁹ Yee, the lande of Egypte shalbe desolate & waste, and they shall knowe, that I am the Lorde. Because he sayde: the water is myne, I my selfe haue made it. ¹⁰ Beholde therfore, I wyll vpon the, and vpon thy waters: I will make the lande of Egypt waste & desolate & in abashment, from the tower of Syenes vnto the borders of the Morians lande: ¹¹ so that in fourty yeares there shall no fote of man walke there, nether fote of catell go there, nether shall it be inhabited. ¹² I will make the land of Egypte to be desolat, amonge other waste conntrees, and her cyties to lye voyde fourty yeares, amonge other voyde cyties. And I will scatre the Egypcians among the Heathen and nacyons. ¹³ Agayne, thus sayeth the Lorde God: When the .xl. yeares are expyred, I wyll gather the Egypcians together agayne, out of the nacions, among whom they were scatred, ¹⁴ and wyll bryng the presoners of Egypt agayne into the land of Pathures theyr awne natyue countre, that they maye be there a lowly small kyngdome: ¹⁵ yee, they shalbe the smallest amonge other kyngdomes, lest they exalte them selues aboue the Heathen: for I will so mynysh them that they shall nomore rule the Heathen. ¹⁶ They shall nomore be an hope vnto the house of Israel, nether prouoke them any more to wyckednes, to cause them turne backe, and to folowe them: and they shall knowe that I am the Lorde God. ¹⁷ In the .xxvii. yeare, the fyrst daye of the fyrst moneth, came the worde of the Lord vnto me sayeng: ¹⁸ Thou sonne of man, Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon hath made his hoost, with great trauayle & labour to come before Tyre: that euery head maye be balde & euery shoulder bare. Yet hath Tyre geuen nether hym ner hys hoost any rewarde, for the great trauayl that he hath taken there. ¹⁹ Therfore, thus sayeth the Lord God: beholde, I will geue the lande of Egypt vnto Nabuchodonosor the kynge of Babylon, that he maye take awaye all her substaunce, robbe her roberyes, & spoyle her spoyles, to paye his hoost theyr wagyes withall. ²⁰ I will geue hym the lande of Egypte for hys labour, that he toke for me before Tyre. ²¹ At the same tyme will I cause the horne of the house of Israell to growe forth, and open thy mouth agayne among them: that they maye knowe, how that I am the Lorde.

²¹ Beholde, thou sonne of man, I will breake the arme of Pharao kyng of Egypte: and lo it shall not be bounde vp to be healed, nother shall eny playstre be laied vpon it, for to ease it, or to make it so stronge, as to holde a swearde.

¹⁸ To whom shalt thou be lykened, that art so gloryous and greate, among the trees of Eden? Yet art thou cast downe vnder the earth (amonge the trees of Eden) where thou must lye amonge vncircumcysed, wt them that be slayne wt the swearde. Euen thus is it wt Pharao & all his people, sayeth the Lorde God.

¹⁸ Thou sonne of man. Take vp a lamentacion vpon the people of Egypte, & cast them downe, yee, them I saye, & the myghtye people of the heathen also, euen with them that dwell beneth: and with them that go downe into the graue. ¹⁹ Downe (how fayre so euer thou be) & laye the with the vncircumcised. ²⁰ Amonge those that be slayne with the swearde, shall they lye. To the swerde is she all redy delyuered: therfore pluck downe to the grounde, her & all her multitude. ²¹ The myghtie worthies shal speake to him out of the hell & to his helpers, that be gone downe & lye vncircumcised and wt them that be slayne with the swearde. ²² Assur is there also wyth hys company, & their graues rounde aboute, which were slayne and fell all with the swearde, ²³ whose graues lye besyde him in the lowe pytte. Hys comens are buried rounde aboute hys graue, all together wounded and slayne with the swearde, which men afore tyme brought feare into the lande of the lyuynge. ²⁴ There is Elam also wyth all hys people, and their graues rounde aboute: which all beynge wounded & slayne with the swearde, are gone downe vncircumcysed vnder the earth, which neuertheles somtime brought feare into the lande of the lyuynge: for the which they beare their shame, with the other that be gone downe to the graue. ²⁵ Their burial is geuen them and all their people, amonge them that be slayne. Their graues are rounde aboute al them, whych be vncircumcised, & with them that be slayne thorow the swearde: for seyng that in times past they made the lande of the lyuynge afrayed they must now beare their awne shame, wt them that go downe to the pytte, and lye amonge them that be slayne. ²⁶ There is Mesech also and Tubal, and their people, & their graues rounde aboute. These all are among the vncircumcised, and them that be slayne wyth the swearde, because afore tyme they made the lande of the lyuynge afrayed. ²⁷ Shulde not they then lye also amonge the worthyes, & vncircumcised Gyauntes? which with their weapens are gone downe to hell whose sweardes are layed vnder their heades, whose wyckednesse is vpon their bones: because that as worthyes, they haue brought feare into the lande of the lyuing ²⁸ Yee, amonge the vncircumcised shalt thou be destroyed, & slepe wyth them, that perished thorowe the swearde. ²⁹ There is the lande of Edom wyth her kynges and princes also, which with theyr strength are layed by them that were slayne with the swearde, yee, amonge the vncircumcised, and them which are gone downe into the pytte. ³⁰ Moreouer, there be all the prynces of the north, with all the Sidonyans which are gone downe to the slayne. With their feare and strength they are come to confusion, and lye there vncircumcised, among those that be slayne with the swearde: and beare their awne shame, with them that be gone downe to the pytte. ³¹ Now whan Pharao seyth this, he shalbe conforted ouer all hys people, that is slayne with the swearde: both Pharao and all his hoost, sayeth the Lord God. ³² For I haue geuen my feare in the lande of the lyuinge. But Pharao and all his people shall lye among the vncircumcised, and amonge them that be slayne with the swearde sayeth the Lorde God.
