Ezekiel 30:13-19
New American Standard Bible
13 ‘This is what the Lord God says:
“I will also (A)destroy the idols
And make the [a]images cease from [b](B)Memphis.
And there will no longer be a prince in the land of Egypt;
And I will put fear in the land of Egypt.
14 I will make (C)Pathros desolate,
Set a fire in (D)Zoan
And execute judgments on [c](E)Thebes.
15 I will pour out My wrath on [d]Sin,
The stronghold of Egypt;
I will also eliminate the hordes of [e]Thebes.
16 I will set a fire in Egypt;
[f]Sin will writhe in anguish,
[g]Thebes will be breached
And [h]Memphis will have [i]distresses daily.
17 The young men of [j](F)On and of Pi-beseth
Will fall by the sword,
And [k]the women will go into captivity.
18 In (G)Tehaphnehes the day will [l]be (H)dark
When I (I)break there the yoke bars of Egypt.
Then the pride of her power will cease in her;
A cloud will cover her,
And her daughters will go into captivity.
19 So I will (J)execute judgments on Egypt,
And they will know that I am the Lord.”’”

Ezekiel 30:13-19
Holman Christian Standard Bible
13 This is what the Lord God says:
I will destroy the idols and put an end
to the false gods in Memphis.(A)
There will no longer be
a prince from the land of Egypt.
So I will instill fear in that land.
14 I will make Pathros(B) desolate,
set fire to Zoan,
and execute judgments on Thebes.
15 I will pour out My wrath on Pelusium,
the stronghold of Egypt,
and will wipe out the crowds[a] of Thebes.
16 I will set fire to Egypt;
Pelusium will writhe in anguish,
Thebes will be breached,
and Memphis will face foes in broad daylight.[b]
17 The young men of On[c] and Pi-beseth
will fall by the sword,
and those cities[d] will go into captivity.
18 The day will be dark[e] in Tehaphnehes,
when I break the yoke of Egypt there
and its proud strength
comes to an end in the city.
A cloud(C) will cover Tehaphnehes,[f]
and its villages will go into captivity.
19 So I will execute judgments against Egypt,
and they will know that I am Yahweh.
