‘This is what the Lord says:
“Indeed, those who support (A)Egypt will fall
And the pride of her power will come down;
From Migdol to Syene
They will fall within her by the sword,”
Declares the Lord God.
“They will be desolate
In the (B)midst of the desolated lands;
And her cities will be
In the midst of the devastated cities.
And they will (C)know that I am the Lord,
When I set a (D)fire in Egypt
And all her helpers are broken.

On that day (E)messengers will go out from Me in ships to frighten (F)carefree [a]Cush; and (G)trembling will come on them as on the day of Egypt; for behold, it is coming!”

  1. Ezekiel 30:9 Or Ethiopia

The Lord proclaims:
When Egypt’s helpers fall,
    its proud strength will decline.
From Migdol to Syene
they will fall by the sword.
    This is what the Lord God says.

Of all the lands laid waste, it will be the most desolate; of all cities, the most ruined. They will know that I am the Lord. On the day that I set fire to Egypt and all its helpers are broken, messengers in ships will go out from me to startle the complacent Cushites. Anguish will overcome them on Egypt’s day. It’s certainly coming.
