Ezekiel 29:12-14
1599 Geneva Bible
12 And I will make the land of Egypt desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities shall be desolate among the cities that are desolate for forty years: and I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
13 Yet thus saith the Lord God, (A)At the end of forty years will I gather the Egyptians from the people, where they were scattered,
14 And I will bring again the captivity of Egypt, and will cause them to return into the land of Pathros, into the land of their habitation, and they shall be there a [a]small kingdom.
