‘Thus says the Lord:

“Those who uphold Egypt shall fall,
And the pride of her power shall come down.
(A)From [a]Migdol to Syene
Those within her shall fall by the sword,”
Says the Lord God.

“They(B) shall be desolate in the midst of the desolate countries,
And her cities shall be in the midst of the cities that are laid waste.
Then they will know that I am the Lord,
When I have set a fire in Egypt
And all her helpers are destroyed.
On that day (C)messengers shall go forth from Me in ships
To make the [b]careless Ethiopians afraid,
And great anguish shall come upon them,
As on the day of Egypt;
For indeed it is coming!”

Thus says Yahweh:

“And the supporters of Egypt will fall,
    and the majesty of its strength will go down
from Migdol to Syene;
    by the sword they will fall in it,”
declares[a] the Lord Yahweh.
“And they will be desolate in the midst of desolate countries,
    and its cities will be in the midst of ruined cities.
And they will know that I am Yahweh
    when I put my fire in Egypt,
    and all of its helpers are broken.

On that day messengers will go down from before me[b] in the ships to terrify unsuspecting Cush, and anguish will be in them on the day of Egypt; for look, it is coming!”
