2Son of man, make a song of grief for Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and say to him, Young lion of the nations, destruction has come on you; and you were like a sea-beast in the seas, sending out bursts of water, troubling the waters with your feet, making their streams dirty.
3This is what the Lord has said: My net will be stretched out over you, and I will take you up in my fishing-net.
4And I will let you be stretched on the land; I will send you out violently into the open field; I will let all the birds of heaven come to rest on you and will make the beasts of all the earth full of you.
5And I will put your flesh on the mountains, and make the valleys full of your blood.
6And the land will be watered with your blood, and the waterways will be full of you.
7And when I put out your life, the heaven will be covered and its stars made dark; I will let the sun be covered with a cloud and the moon will not give her light.
8All the bright lights of heaven I will make dark over you, and put dark night on your land, says the Lord.
