Ezekiel 30:6-9
English Standard Version
6 “Thus says the Lord:
(A)Those who support Egypt shall fall,
and (B)her proud might shall come down;
(C)from Migdol to Syene
they shall fall within her by the sword,
declares the Lord God.
7 (D)And they shall be desolated in the midst of desolated countries,
and their cities shall be in the midst of cities that are laid waste.
8 (E)Then they will know that I am the Lord,
when (F)I have set fire to Egypt,
and (G)all her helpers are broken.
9 “On that day (H)messengers shall go out from me in ships to terrify the unsuspecting (I)people of Cush, and (J)anguish shall come upon them on the day of Egypt's doom;[a] for, behold, it comes!
