¹ Wail, O ships of Tarshish! For Tyre is destroyed and left without house or harbor. From the land of Cyprus (Kittim) word has come to them. ² Be silent, you people of the island and you merchants of Sidon, whom the seafarers have enriched. ³ On the great waters came the grain of the Shihor. The harvest of the Nile River was the revenue of Tyre, and she became the marketplace of the nations. ⁴ Be ashamed, O Sidon, and you, O fortress of the sea, for the sea has spoken: I have neither been in labor nor given birth. I have neither reared sons nor brought up daughters. ⁵ When word arrives at Egypt, they will be in anguish at the report from Tyre. ⁶ Crossover to Tarshish and cry you people of the island. ⁷ Is this your exultant city founded in antiquity? Is this the city that sent its people to settle in distant lands? ⁸ Who planned such a thing against Tyre, the city that produced kings? Its merchants are princes. Its traders are among the honored people of the world. ⁹ Jehovah of Hosts planned this in order to dishonor all arrogant people and to humiliate all the honored people of the world. ¹⁰ Travel through your country like the Nile, people of Tarshish. You no longer have a harbor. ¹¹ Jehovah has stretched his hand over the sea to shake kingdoms.

At the end of seventy years it will happen to Tyre as in the song of the prostitute: ¹⁶ »Take harp and walk about the city, O forgotten prostitute. Pluck the strings skillfully; sing many songs, that you may be remembered.« ¹⁷ It will come about at the end of seventy years that Jehovah will visit Tyre. Then she will go back to her prostitute’s wages and will play the wanton woman with all the kingdoms on the face of the earth. ¹⁸ The money she earns by commerce will be dedicated to Jehovah. She will not store it away, but those who worship Jehovah will use her money to buy the food and the clothing they need.

¹ Jehovah spoke this message to the prophet Jeremiah about the nations. ² This is the message about [EGYPT], about the army of Pharaoh Neco, king of Egypt.

Mount up, you horsemen. Take your positions, and put on your helmets. Polish your spears. Put on your armor. ⁵ »What do I see in them? They are terrified. They are retreating. Their warriors are defeated. They flee without looking back. Terror is all around them!« declares Jehovah. ⁶ The infantry cannot flee. The warriors cannot escape. They stumble and fall in the north by the Euphrates River. ⁷ Who is this, rising like the Nile River, like streams that flow swiftly? ⁸ Egypt is like the rising Nile River, like a river quickly overflowing its banks. Egypt says: »I will rise. I will cover the earth. I will destroy cities and the people in them.« ⁹ Go into battle, you horsemen. Drive wildly, you chariot drivers. March into battle, you warriors, you warriors from Sudan and Put who carry shields, you warriors from Lydia who use bows and arrows. ¹⁰ That day belongs to Jehovah of Hosts. It is a day of vengeance when he will take revenge on his enemies. His sword will devour until it has had enough, and it will drink their blood until it is full. The Almighty Jehovah of Hosts will offer them as sacrifices in the north by the Euphrates River. ¹¹ Go to Gilead, and get medicine, dear people of Egypt.

Announce this in Migdol. Make it known in Memphis and in Tahpanhes. Say: ‘Take your positions, and get ready. Swords will kill those around you. ¹⁵ »Why should your soldiers be cut down? They cannot stand because Jehovah will push them down. ¹⁶ »They have repeatedly stumbled and now they have fallen. They say to each other: ‘Get up! Let us go back to our people, to the land where we were born and escape our enemy's sword.’« ¹⁷ »There they will cry: ‘Pharaoh, king of Egypt, is a big windbag. He has missed his chance.’ ¹⁸ »‘As I live,’ declares the king, whose name is Jehovah of Hosts; ‘someone who is like Mount Tabor among the mountains will come. Someone who is like Mount Carmel by the sea will come. ¹⁹ »‘Pack your bags inhabitants of Egypt, because you will be taken away as captives. Memphis will become a dreary wasteland, a pile of rubble where no one lives. ²⁰ »‘Egypt is like a beautiful cow, but a horsefly (distruction) from the north will attack it. ²¹ »‘Egypt's hired soldiers are like fattened calves. They will turn and run away together. They will not stand their ground. The day of destruction is coming. At that time they will be punished.’ ²² »‘Egypt will hiss like a snake as it slithers away. Its enemies will come with full force. They will attack it with axes like those who chop wood. ²³ »‘They will cut down the forest,’ declares Jehovah, ‘since Egypt cannot be found. They are more numerous than locusts. They cannot be counted. ²⁴ »‘The people of Egypt will be put to shame. They will be handed over to the people from the north.’ ²⁵ »Jehovah of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘I am going to punish Amon, who is the god of Thebes. I will also punish Pharaoh, Egypt, its gods, its kings, and whoever trusts Pharaoh.’ ²⁶ »‘I will hand them over to those who want to kill them, to King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon and his officers. Afterward, they will live in peace as they did long ago,’declares Jehovah. ²⁷ »‘Do not be afraid, my servant Jacob. Do not be terrified, Israel. I am going to rescue you and your descendants from a faraway land, from the land where you are captives. Then Jacob's descendants will again have undisturbed peace, and no one will make them afraid. ²⁸ »‘Do not be afraid, my servant Jacob,« declares Jehovah. »I am with you. I will completely destroy all the nations where I scattered you, but I will not completely destroy you. I will correct you with justice. I will not let you go entirely unpunished.’«

⁸ »Wait for me,« said Jehovah, »until the day that I rise up as a witness. I am determined to gather the nations. I will assemble the kingdoms to pour out upon them my indignation, even all my fierce anger! All the earth will be devoured with the fire of my zeal.

¹² For there is no difference between Jew and Greek. The same Lord (God) of all is abounding in riches for all who call on him. ¹³ »Everyone who calls on the name of Jehovah will be saved.« (Joel 2:32) ¹⁴ How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how will they believe in him of whom they have not heard? And how will they hear without someone to preach?

² To the congregation of God at Corinth. To you, who are sanctified in Christ Jesus. You who are called to be holy ones, with all whom in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. He is both their Lord and ours.

¹ I heard a loud voice from the temple say to the seven angels: Go your way, and pour out the bowls of the anger of God on the earth. ² The first poured out his bowl on the earth. A painful and grievous sore appeared on the men who had the mark of the beast, and upon those who worshiped his image. ³ Then the second angel poured out his bowl on the sea. It became like the blood of a dead man, and every living being died in the sea. ⁴ Then the third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and fountains of waters and they became blood. ⁵ I heard the angel of the waters say: »You are righteous, Jehovah, who are, and was, the Holy One, because you have judged these things. (Exodus 3:14) ⁶ »They have shed the blood of the holy ones and prophets. You give them blood to drink for they deserve it.« ⁷ I heard another say: »Even so, Jehovah God the Almighty, true and righteous are your judgments.« (Deuteronomy 32:4) (Psalm 145:17) (Exodus 6:3) ⁸ The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun. Authority was given to him to scorch men with fire. ⁹ Men were scorched with great heat. They blasphemed the name of God, who has power over these plagues. They did not repent and give him glory. ¹⁰ Then the fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast; and his kingdom became full of darkness. And they gnawed their tongues because of the pain. ¹¹ They blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains, but they did not repent. ¹² The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates. Its water was dried up so that the way might be prepared for the kings from the east. ¹³ I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. ¹⁴ They are demonic spirits, working signs, which go to the kings of the earth, of the whole world. They gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. ¹⁵ »Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he who stays awake and keeps his outer garment, that he does not walk naked and they see his shame.« ¹⁶ He gathered them together to a place called in the Hebrew tongue Har-Magedon. ¹⁷ Then the seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air. A loud voice came out of the temple of heaven. It said: »It is done!« ¹⁸ There were voices, and thunders, and lightnings. There was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great. ¹⁹ The great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. God remembered Babylon the Great. He gave her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his anger (wrath). ²⁰ Every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. ²¹ There fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent (45 to 100 pounds). Men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail, for the plague was exceeding great.
