A day of clouds, the time of nations it is. ⁴ And come in hath a sword to Egypt, And there hath been great pain in Cush, In the falling of the wounded in Egypt, And they have taken its store, And broken down have been its foundations. ⁵ Cush, and Phut, and Lud, and all the mixture, and Chub, And the sons of the land of the covenant with them by sword do fall, ⁶ Thus said Jehovah: And -- fallen have supporters of Egypt, And come down hath the arrogance of her strength, From Migdol to Syene, by sword they fall in her, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah. ⁷ And they have been desolated in the midst of desolate lands, And its cities are in the midst of wasted cities. ⁸ And they have known that I [am] Jehovah, In My giving fire against Egypt, And broken have been all her helpers. ⁹ In that day go forth do messengers from before Me in ships, To trouble confident Cush, And there hath been great pain among them, As the day of Egypt, for lo, it hath come. ¹⁰ Thus said the Lord Jehovah: I have caused the multitude of Egypt to cease, By the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon,

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And I will set fire in Egypt,.... Kindle a war there, which shall consume it; see Ezekiel 30:8:

Sin shall have great pain; as a woman in travail, seeing its destruction is just at hand; the same with Pelusium, as before:

and No shall be rent asunder, the walls of it shall be broken down by the enemy, or a breach shall be made in it, like the breach of waters which were about it; see Nahum 3:8:

and Noph shall have distresses daily: that is, Memphis, as before; enemies shall surround it daily, as the Targum; shall besiege and distress it, until it is taken: or, "in the daytime"; their enemies should not come as thieves in the night, openly in the day. Abendana interprets it of their unfortunate day, their star being unlucky.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Ezekiel 30:16. Noph — Cairo or Kahira; see Ezekiel 30:13.
