Ezekiel 32:21

21 Les puissants héros lui adresseront la parole Au sein du séjour des morts, Avec ceux qui étaient ses soutiens. Ils sont descendus, ils sont couchés, les incirconcis, Tués par l'épée.

Ezekiel 32:21 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 32:21

The strong among the mighty shall speak to him
The strongest of them, such who have excelled others in strength and courage, famous for military exploits, who have been generals of armies, great warriors, and conquerors; and yet with all their might and strength could not withstand death, but were subdued by it, and brought down to the grave; these are, by a poetical figure, represented as meeting Pharaoh king of Egypt, when he came to his grave, saluting and welcoming him to the state of the dead in which they were; taking a sort of comfort in it, and insulting him as being as weak as they; see ( Isaiah 14:9 Isaiah 14:10 Isaiah 14:16 ) , which they should do out of the midst of hell,
or the grave, "Hades", the state of the dead: with them that help him;
the associates, allies, and friends of Pharaoh, his auxiliaries that fell with him, and were brought to the grave at the same time with him; these should be greeted, saluted, and welcomed in like manner: they are gone down;
to the grave; those mighty ones that are represented as speaking, and the Egyptians and their helpers who are spoken to: they lie uncircumcised;
among them that are so, ( Ezekiel 32:19 ) : slain by the sword;
of their enemies, who got the victory over them.

Ezekiel 32:21 In-Context

19 Qui surpasses-tu en beauté? Descends, et couche-toi avec les incirconcis!

20 Ils tomberont au milieu de ceux qui sont morts par l'épée. Le glaive est donné: Entraînez l'Egypte et toute sa multitude!

21 Les puissants héros lui adresseront la parole Au sein du séjour des morts, Avec ceux qui étaient ses soutiens. Ils sont descendus, ils sont couchés, les incirconcis, Tués par l'épée.

22 Là est l'Assyrien, avec toute sa multitude, Et ses sépulcres sont autour de lui; Tous sont morts, sont tombés par l'épée.

23 Ses sépulcres sont dans les profondeurs de la fosse, Et sa multitude est autour de son sépulcre; Tous sont morts, sont tombés par l'épée; Eux qui répandaient la terreur dans le pays des vivants.
