Ezekiel 30:2–6 · Berean Standard Bible

2 “Son of man, prophesy and declare that this is what the Lord GOD says: Wail, ‘Alas for that day!’

3 For the day is near, the Day of the LORD is near. It will be a day of clouds, a time of doom for the nations.

4 A sword will come against Egypt, and there will be anguish in Cush when the slain fall in Egypt, its wealth is taken away, and its foundations are torn down.

5 Cush, Put, and Lud, and all the various peoples, as well as Libya and the men of the covenant land, will fall with Egypt by the sword.

6 For this is what the LORD says: The allies of Egypt will fall, and her proud strength will collapse. From Migdol to Syene they will fall by the sword within her, declares the Lord GOD.
