Isaiah 19:18-22
New King James Version
Egypt, Assyria, and Israel Blessed
18 In that day five cities in the land of Egypt will (A)speak the language of Canaan and (B)swear by the Lord of hosts; one will be called the City of [a]Destruction.
19 In that day (C)there will be an altar to the Lord in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar to the (D)Lord at its border. 20 And (E)it will be for a sign and for a witness to the Lord of hosts in the land of Egypt; for they will cry to the Lord because of the oppressors, and He will send them a (F)Savior and a Mighty One, and He will deliver them. 21 Then the Lord will be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians will (G)know the Lord in that day, and (H)will make sacrifice and offering; yes, they will make a vow to the Lord and perform it. 22 And the Lord will strike Egypt, He will strike and (I)heal it; they will return to the Lord, and He will be entreated by them and heal them.

18 In that day(A) five cities(B) in Egypt will speak the language of Canaan and swear allegiance(C) to the Lord Almighty. One of them will be called the City of the Sun.[a](D)
19 In that day(E) there will be an altar(F) to the Lord in the heart of Egypt,(G) and a monument(H) to the Lord at its border. 20 It will be a sign and witness(I) to the Lord Almighty in the land of Egypt. When they cry out to the Lord because of their oppressors, he will send them a savior(J) and defender, and he will rescue(K) them. 21 So the Lord will make himself known to the Egyptians, and in that day they will acknowledge(L) the Lord. They will worship(M) with sacrifices and grain offerings; they will make vows to the Lord and keep them.(N) 22 The Lord will strike(O) Egypt with a plague;(P) he will strike them and heal them. They will turn(Q) to the Lord, and he will respond to their pleas and heal(R) them.
