17 In the twelfth year, on the fifteenth day of the month, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

18 “Son of man, wail for the multitudes of Egypt, and consign her and the daughters of the mighty nations to the depths of the earth with those who descend to the Pit:

19 Whom do you surpass in beauty? Go down and be placed with the uncircumcised!

20 They will fall among those slain by the sword. The sword is appointed! Let them drag her away along with all her multitudes.
