6 I will also water with thy blood the land wherein thou swimmest, even to the mountains; and the rivers shall be full of thee.
6 I will drench the land with your flowing blood all the way to the mountains, and the ravines will be filled with your flesh.
6 I will drench the land even to the mountains with your flowing blood, and the ravines will be full of you.
6 The country, right up to the mountains, will be drenched with your blood, your blood filling every ditch and channel.
6 'I will also water the land with the flow of your blood, Even to the mountains; And the riverbeds will be full of you.
6 I will drench the earth with your gushing blood all the way to the mountains, filling the ravines to the brim.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Ezekiel 32:6
Commentary on Ezekiel 32:1-16
(Read Ezekiel 32:1-16)
It becomes us to weep and tremble for those who will not weep and tremble for themselves. Great oppressors are, in God's account, no better than beasts of prey. Those who admire the pomp of this world, will wonder at the ruin of that pomp; which to those who know the vanity of all things here below, is no surprise. When others are ruined by sin, we have to fear, knowing ourselves guilty. The instruments of the desolation are formidable. And the instances of the desolation are frightful. The waters of Egypt shall run like oil, which signifies there should be universal sadness and heaviness upon the whole nation. God can soon empty those of this world's goods who have the greatest fulness of them. By enlarging the matters of our joy, we increase the occasions of our sorrow. How weak and helpless, as to God, are the most powerful of mankind! The destruction of Egypt was a type of the destruction of the enemies of Christ.
