The Day of the LORD Against Egypt

1

The word of Jehovah came again unto me, saying,

2

Son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Wail ye, Alas for the day!

3

For the day is near, even the day of Jehovah is near; it shall be a day of clouds, a time of the nations.

4

And a sword shall come upon Egypt, and anguish shall be in Ethiopia, when the slain shall fall in Egypt; and they shall take away her multitude, and her foundations shall be broken down.

5

Ethiopia, and Put, and Lud, and all the mingled people, and Cub, and the children of the land that is in league, shall fall with them by the sword.

6

Thus saith Jehovah: They also that uphold Egypt shall fall; and the pride of her power shall come down: from the tower of Seveneh shall they fall in it by the sword, saith the Lord Jehovah.

7

And they shall be desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate; and her cities shall be in the midst of the cities that are wasted.

8

And they shall know that I am Jehovah, when I have set a fire in Egypt, and all her helpers are destroyed.

9

In that day shall messengers go forth from before me in ships to make the careless Ethiopians afraid; and there shall be anguish upon them, as in the day of Egypt; for, lo, it cometh.
