Speak, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great dragon that lieth in the midst of his rivers, which hath said, My river is mine own, and I have made it for myself.
Ve y dile este mensaje de Dios: 'Escucha, Faraón, rey de Egipto, vengo por ti. Eres como un gran dragón que descansa en tus ríos, actuando como si fueras dueño de todo el Nilo y lo hubieras creado tú mismo.'
Dios confronta al Faraón por su orgullo y arrogancia, comparándolo con un dragón que se cree dueño del Nilo.
📚 Contexto Histórico
During the Babylonian exile in the 6th century BC, the prophet Ezekiel was called by God to deliver warnings to various nations, including Egypt, which had been an unreliable ally to Judah and was known for its prideful boasts. In this verse, Pharaoh is likened to a great dragon resting in the Nile River, symbolizing Egypt's arrogant claim that they alone created and controlled their resources, which reflected a broader cultural attitude of self-reliance over dependence on God. This prophecy highlighted God's judgment on nations that exalted themselves above Him.
