“‘Yahweh says:

“They also who uphold Egypt will fall.
    The pride of her power will come down.
They will fall by the sword in it from the tower of Seveneh,”
    says the Lord Yahweh.
“They will be desolate in the middle of the countries that are desolate.
    Her cities will be among the cities that are wasted.
They will know that I am Yahweh
    when I have set a fire in Egypt,
    and all her helpers are destroyed.

“‘“In that day messengers will go out from before me in ships to make the careless Ethiopians afraid. There will be anguish on them, as in the day of Egypt; for, behold, it comes.”

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!”
