24 The daughter of Egypt has been put to shame,
Turned over to the [a]power of the (A)people of the north.”

25 The Lord of armies, the God of Israel says: “Behold, I am going to punish Amon of (B)Thebes, and (C)Pharaoh, and Egypt along with her (D)gods and her kings, indeed, Pharaoh and those who (E)trust in him. 26 I shall hand them over to those who are (F)seeking their lives, that is, to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and to his [b]officers. (G)Afterward, however, it will be inhabited as in the days of old,” declares the Lord.
