Ezekiel 29:9

And the land of Egypt shall be desolate and waste; and they shall know that I am the LORD: because he hath said, The river is mine, and I have made it.

They shall know that I am the Lord - in antithesis to the blasphemous boast repeated here from Ezekiel 29:3, "The river is mine, and I have made it."
