    shall be brought in to destroy the land,
(C)and they shall draw their swords against Egypt
    and fill the land with the slain.
12 And (D)I will (E)dry up the Nile
    and will sell the land into the hand of (F)evildoers;
(G)I will bring desolation upon the land and everything in it,
    by the hand of (H)foreigners;
(I)I am the Lord; I have spoken.
