(I)Then they shall know that I am the Lord, (J)when I put my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon and he stretches it out against the land of Egypt. 26 And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations and disperse them throughout the countries. Then they will know that I am the Lord.”

to fight[a] on Mount Zion and on its hill.
