Ezekiel 30:6-8

New International Reader's Version

“Those who were going to help Egypt will die.
    The strength Egypt was so proud of will fail.
Its people will be killed by swords
    from Migdol all the way to Aswan,”
    announces the Lord and King.
⁷ “Egypt will be more empty than any other land.
    Its cities will be completely destroyed.
⁸ I will set Egypt on fire.
    All those who came to help it will be crushed.
    Then they will know that I am the Lord.
