Lamentation for Pharaoh and Egypt
b‘You are like a young lion among the nations,
And cyou are like a monster in the seas,
dBursting forth in your rivers,
Troubling the waters with your feet,
And efouling their rivers.
“I will therefore aspread My net over you with a company of many people,
And they will draw you up in My net.
I will cast you out on the open fields,
bAnd cause to1 settle on you all the birds of the heavens.
And with you I will fill the beasts of the whole earth.
Even to the mountains;
And the riverbeds will be full of you.
aI will cover the heavens, and make its stars dark;
I will cover the sun with a cloud,
And the moon shall not give her light.

Ezekiel 32:2
Like a young lion - Spoiling all thou canst. Crocodile - The crocodiles lay in the rivers, though sometimes they went down the river to the sea. With thy rivers - Raisedst mighty armies, and didst lead them out against thy neighbours. The waters - The people, and kings near thee. Thy feet - With thy soldiers. Fouledst - Didst spoil all the conveniences of thy neighbours.
