Ezekiel 29:3-5
GOD’S WORD Translation
3 Tell him, ‘This is what the Almighty Lord says:
I’m against you, Pharaoh, king of Egypt.
You are like a monster crocodile lying in the Nile River.
You say, “The Nile River is mine. I made it for myself.”
4 “ ‘I will put hooks in your jaws
and make the fish in the Nile River stick to your scales.
I will pull you out of your river
with all the fish in the Nile sticking to your scales.
5 I will leave you in the desert, you and all the fish from the Nile.
You will fall in an open field.
No one will pick you up or bury you.
I will feed you to wild animals and birds.

New International Version
3 Speak to him and say: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘I am against you, Pharaoh(A) king of Egypt,
you great monster(B) lying among your streams.
You say, “The Nile(C) belongs to me;
I made it for myself.”
4 But I will put hooks(D) in your jaws
and make the fish of your streams stick to your scales.
I will pull you out from among your streams,
with all the fish sticking to your scales.(E)
5 I will leave you in the desert,
you and all the fish of your streams.
You will fall on the open field
and not be gathered(F) or picked up.
I will give you as food
to the beasts of the earth and the birds of the sky.(G)
