17 The young men of [a]Aven and Pi Beseth shall fall by the sword,
And these cities shall go into captivity.
18 (A)At [b]Tehaphnehes the day shall also be [c]darkened,
When I break the yokes of Egypt there.
And her arrogant strength shall cease in her;
As for her, a cloud shall cover her,
And her daughters shall go into captivity.
19 Thus I will (B)execute judgments on Egypt,
Then they shall know that I am the Lord.” ’ ”
