The mighty chiefs shall speak of them, with their helpers, out of the midst of Sheol: ‘They have come down, they lie still, the uncircumcised, slain by the sword.’
Egypt's funeral is appointed: she must go down to the pit with all the other proud kingdoms that came before her. No nation, however fair or flourishing, escapes this common grave. She drinks the same bloody cup as the rest, and all her multitude falls by the sword. Let her have an honorable burial, but do not mistake it for exemption from judgment.

Commenting on Ezekiel 32:17-32
The mightiest warriors, generals and conquerors who subdued armies, yet death subdued them all and brought them to the grave. These strong men now greet Pharaoh from Sheol itself, welcoming him to that state of the dead where they lie uncircumcised among the sword-slain, taking bitter comfort that his weakness matches their own.
