III. The Dirge and Unveiling of the Unseen World.
It came to pass also in the twelfth year, in the fifteenth day of
the month, that the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, Son of
man, wail for the multitude of Egypt, and cast them down, even her,
and the daughters of the famous nations, unto the nether parts of
the earth, with them that go down into the pit. Whom dost thou pass
in beauty? go down, and be thou laid with the uncircumcised. They
shall fall in the midst of them that are slain by the sword: she is
delivered to the sword: draw her and all her multitudes. The strong
among the mighty shall speak to him out of the midst of hell (sheol)
with them that help him: they are gone down, they lie uncircumcised,
slain by the sword. Asshur is there and all her company: his graves
are about him: all of them slain, fallen by the sword: Whose graves
are set in the sides of the pit, and her company is round about her
grave: all of them slain, fallen by the sword, which caused terror
in the land of the living. There is Elam and all her multitudes
round about her grave, all of them slain, fallen by the sword, which
are gone down uncircumcised into the nether parts of the earth,
which caused their terror in the land of the living; yet have they
borne their shame with them that go down to the pit. They have set
her a bed in the midst of the slain with all her multitude: her
graves are round about him: all of them uncircumcised, slain by
the sword: though their terror was caused in the land of the
living, yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to
the pit: he is put in the midst of them that be slain. There is
Meshech, Tubal, and all her multitude: her graves are round about
him: all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword, though they
caused their terror in the land of the living. And they shall not
lie with the mighty that are fallen of the uncircumcised, which are
gone down to hell with their weapons of war: and they have laid
their swords under their heads, but their iniquities shall be upon
their bones, though they were the terror of the mighty in the land
of the living. Yea, thou shalt be broken in the midst of the
uncircumcised, and shalt lie with them that are slain with the
sword. There is Edom, her kings, and all her princes, which with
their might are laid by them that were slain by the sword: they
shall lie with the uncircumcised, and with them that go down to the
pit. There be the princes of the north, all of them, and all the
Zidonians, which are gone down with the slain; with their terror
they are ashamed of their might: and they lie uncircumcised with
them that be slain by her sword, and bear their shame with them that
go down to the pit. Pharaoh shall see them, and shall be comforted
over all his multitude, even Pharaoh and all his army slain by the
