Ezekiel
Ezekiel 30:17–18
17The young men of On and Pi-besethi
will fall by the sword,
and those cities will go into captivity.
18The day will be darkened in Tahpanhes
when I break the yoke of Egypt
and her proud strength comes to an end.
A cloud will cover her,
and her daughters will go into captivity.
