“‘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.”

‘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!”
