Jeremiah 46:22-24

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²² She makes a sound like a snake gliding away;
    for her enemies march in force,
and come against her with axes,
    like those who fell trees.
²³ They shall cut down her forest,
says the Lord,
    though it is impenetrable,
because they are more numerous
    than locusts;
    they are without number.
²⁴ Daughter Egypt shall be put to shame;
    she shall be handed over to a people from the north.
