2 Son of man, lift up a lament over Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and say to him, You were like a young lion of the nations, and you were like the monster in the seas. And you burst forth in your rivers and stirred up the waters with your feet and fouled their rivers.

3 So says the Lord Jehovah: And I will spread out My net over you with an assembly of many peoples, and they will make you go up in My net.
