A sword shall come upon Egypt,
    and anguish shall be in Ethiopia,[a]
when the slain fall in Egypt,
    and its wealth is carried away,
    and its foundations are torn down.

Ethiopia,[b] and Put, and Lud, and all Arabia, and Libya,[c] and the people of the allied land[d] shall fall with them by the sword.

Thus says the Lord:
Those who support Egypt shall fall,
    and its proud might shall come down;
from Migdol to Syene
    they shall fall within it by the sword,
says the Lord God.
