Ezekiel 29:3-5

English Standard Version

³speak, and say, Thus says the Lord God:

^(A)“Behold, I am against you,
    Pharaoh king of Egypt,
^(B)the great dragon that lies
    in the midst of his streams,
^(C)that says, ‘My Nile is my own;
    I made it for myself.’
⁴I will ^(D)put hooks in your jaws,
    and make the fish of your streams stick to your scales;
and I will draw you up out of the midst of your streams,
    with all the fish of your streams
    that stick to your scales.
⁵^(E)And I will cast you out into the wilderness,
    you and all the fish of your streams;
you shall fall ^(F)on the open field,
    and ^(G)not be brought together or gathered.
To the beasts of the earth and to the birds of the heavens
    ^(H)I give you as food.
