Contextual Overview
1 On the first day of the twelfth month of the twelfth year, the word of Adonai came to me: 2 "Human being, raise a lament for Pharaoh king of Egypt; say to him, ‘You compared yourself to a lion among the nations; In fact, you are more like a crocodile in the lakes. You burst out of your streams, churn the water with your feet and foul their streams.' 3 "So here is what Adonai Elohim says: ‘With many nations assembled, I will spread my net over you, and they will haul you up in my dragnet. 4 Then I will throw you on the shore, hurl you into an open field, make all the birds in the air settle on you and let the animals of the whole earth eat their fill of you. 5 I will leave your flesh on the mountains and fill the valleys with your rotting carcass. 6 I will drench the land in which you swim with your blood, as far as the mountains; the waterways will be full of you. 7 When I extinguish you, I will cover the sky and make its stars black; I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon will not give its light. 8 All the shining lights in the sky I will darken above you; I will spread darkness over your land,' says Adonai Elohim . 9 "‘I will anger many peoples when I bring your destroyed ones in among the nations, into countries you have not known. 10 I will make many peoples aghast at you; their kings will shudder in horror over you when I brandish my sword before them. On the day of your downfall they will tremble continuously, each man in fear of his life.'

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And I will also water with thy blood the land wherewith thou swimmest,.... Where he resided, over which he ruled; alluding to his being compared to a fish, a whale, or a crocodile; and which land abounded with all good things, and he with them; instead of being watered with the waters of the Nile, by which it became fruitful, it should now be flooded with the blood of his army:
even to the mountains; an hyperbolical expression, signifying the vast quantity of blood that should be shed; see the like in Revelation 14:20:
and the rivers shall be full of them; of the carcasses of his army, and of the blood of them; they should lie about everywhere, on mountains and valleys, on the land and in the rivers; and which should now be turned into blood, as the rivers of Egypt of old were; and which figure is used to express the destruction of the antichristian states; see Exodus 7:20.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
