“For thus saith the Lord GOD; ‘The sword of the king of Babylon shall come upon thee.  By the swords of the mighty will I cause thy multitude to fall, the terrible of the nations, all of them: and they shall spoil the pomp of Egypt, and all the multitude thereof shall be destroyed.  I will destroy also all the beasts thereof from beside the great waters; neither shall the foot of man trouble them any more, nor the hoofs of beasts trouble them.  Then will I make their waters deep, and cause their rivers to run like oil, saith the Lord GOD.  ‘When I shall make the land of Egypt desolate, and the country shall be destitute of that whereof it was full, when I shall smite all them that dwell therein, then shall they know that I am the LORD.  This is the lamentation wherewith they shall lament her: the daughters of the nations shall lament her: they shall lament for her, even for Egypt, and for all her multitude’, saith the Lord GOD.”  Ezekiel 32:11-16 (KJV)
