Ezekiel 30:4-9
New International Version
4 A sword will come against Egypt,(A)
and anguish will come upon Cush.[a](B)
When the slain fall in Egypt,
her wealth will be carried away
and her foundations torn down.(C)
5 Cush and Libya,(D) Lydia and all Arabia,(E) Kub and the people(F) of the covenant land will fall by the sword along with Egypt.(G)
6 “‘This is what the Lord says:
“‘The allies of Egypt will fall
and her proud strength will fail.
From Migdol to Aswan(H)
they will fall by the sword within her,
declares the Sovereign Lord.
7 “‘They will be desolate
among desolate lands,
and their cities will lie
among ruined cities.(I)
8 Then they will know that I am the Lord,
when I set fire(J) to Egypt
and all her helpers are crushed.(K)
9 “‘On that day messengers will go out from me in ships to frighten Cush(L) out of her complacency. Anguish(M) will take hold of them on the day of Egypt’s doom, for it is sure to come.(N)
