Ezekiel 30:6 Made Simple

KJV ORIGINAL

Thus saith the LORD; They also that uphold Egypt shall fall; and the pride of her power shall come down: from the tower of Syene shall they fall in it by the sword, saith the Lord GOD.

Close to the original. Clear modern English.

✦ MADE SIMPLE

This is what the LORD says: Everyone who's been backing Egypt is going to fall, and all that arrogant power they're so proud of? It's coming down hard. From one end of the country to the other, they'll fall by the sword — that's a promise from the Lord GOD.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

When you build your confidence on pride and power instead of God, the fall hits different.

Israel's arrogance is written all over their face, but even with all the evidence right there, they still won't come back to God or even try to find him.

Jeremiah 50:29

Call up all the archers to surround Babylon — everyone who can draw a bow. Set up camp around the whole city so no one gets out. Give them back exactly what they gave others. They've been arrogant toward God, disrespecting the Holy One of Israel, so now they get what's coming to them.
