Those Who Support Egypt Will Fall

30 The word of Yahweh came again to me saying, “Son of man, prophesy and say, ‘Thus says Lord Yahweh,

(A)Wail, ‘Alas for the day!’
For the day is near,
Even (B)the day of Yahweh is near;
It will be a day of (C)clouds,
A time of doom for the nations.
A sword will come upon Egypt,
And anguish will be in [a]Ethiopia;
When the slain fall in Egypt,
They (D)take away her multitude,
And her foundations are pulled down.

[b]Ethiopia, Put, Lud, all [c](E)Arabia, [d]Libya, and the [e]people of the land [f]that is in covenant will fall with them by the sword.”
