+### [Read the passage.](https://biblia.com/bible/esv/Ezekiel30.1-19)
+
+This lament is a parallel to the one give over Tyre in chapter 27. The Lord
+gives warning that Egypt's doom is close at hand, and its neighbors are going
+to fall with it. A sword and fire will come upon northern Africa from Arabia to
+Libya, from Egypt down to Ethiopia (known as Cush then).
+
+The wealth and security that being Egypt's neighbor will no longer be available
+for Nebuchadnezzar will sieze and shatter it. In addition, the Lord will dry up
+the Nile River, the lifeblood of the region. The famous and varied idols and
+images of Egypt's religion will be broken.
+
+Several prominent cities in Egypt are given more specific descriptions of the
+doom that is coming for the nation as a whole. There may be subtle word play or
+references to attributes of those cities, but I'm not enough of a scholar to go
+looking for them. Instead, we can be sure that it is the Lord who brought these
+things about to the Egyptians for the purpose of declaring His holiness to the
+nations.

+All rebellion against Your rule will fail, even if it takes thousands of years.
