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.
