Pharaoh shall see them and be comforted over all his multitude, even Pharaoh and all his army, slain by the sword, declares the Lord God, concluding the section by acknowledging that Pharaoh's comfort in Sheol will derive from seeing that other great powers—even greater than Egypt—have similarly perished. The dark comfort suggests that recognition of shared destruction provides some solace to the newly dead.
