“Son of man, (A)take up a lamentation for Pharaoh king of Egypt, and say to him:

(B)‘You are like a young lion among the nations,
And (C)you are like a monster in the seas,
(D)Bursting forth in your rivers,
Troubling the waters with your feet,
And (E)fouling their rivers.

‘Thus says the Lord God:

“I will therefore (F)spread My net over you with a company of many people,
And they will draw you up in My net.
Then (G)I will leave you on the land;
I will cast you out on the open fields,
(H)And cause to [a]settle on you all the birds of the heavens.
And with you I will fill the beasts of the whole earth.
