‘Thus says the Lord:

“Those who uphold Egypt shall fall,
And the pride of her power shall come down.
(A)From [a]Migdol to Syene
Those within her shall fall by the sword,”

“They(B) shall be desolate in the midst of the desolate countries,
And her cities shall be in the midst of the cities that are laid waste.
Then they will know that I am the Lord,
When I have set a fire in Egypt
And all her helpers are destroyed.

To make the [b]careless Ethiopians afraid,
And great anguish shall come upon them,
As on the day of Egypt;
For indeed it is coming!”
