Ezekiel 32:13

13 I will destroy all your flocks and herds that graze beside the streams. Never again will people or animals muddy those waters with their feet.

Ezekiel 32:13 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 32:13

I will destroy also all the beasts thereof from beside the
great waters
Which used to graze beside the river Nile, and the canal, of it, in the plains and meadows, valley, and hills, which these ran by; meaning both horses, which Egypt abounded with, and would be good booty for the Chaldeans, and oxen and sheep, which they would kill for present use, or drive away for future service: neither shall the foot of man trouble them any more, nor the hoofs of
beasts trouble them;
there should so few remain of men and beasts, that the waters of the rivers would not be disturbed, either by men passing over them, and doing any business upon them, or by beasts drinking at them.

Ezekiel 32:13 In-Context

11 For this is what the Sovereign LORD says: “The sword of the king of Babylon will come against you.
12 I will destroy your hordes with the swords of mighty warriors— the terror of the nations. They will shatter the pride of Egypt, and all its hordes will be destroyed.
13 I will destroy all your flocks and herds that graze beside the streams. Never again will people or animals muddy those waters with their feet.
14 Then I will let the waters of Egypt become calm again, and they will flow as smoothly as olive oil, says the Sovereign LORD .
15 And when I destroy Egypt and strip you of everything you own and strike down all your people, then you will know that I am the LORD .
