and the river will be dry and parched,

and the branches of Egypt's Nile will diminish and dry up,
reeds and rushes will rot away.
7 There will be bare places by the Nile,
on the brink of the Nile,
and all that is sown by the Nile will be parched,
will be driven away, and will be no more.
8 The (A)fishermen will mourn and lament,

who spread nets on the water.

and all who (D)work for pay will be grieved.
