The burden
of Egypt.
Behold, the LORD
rideth
upon a swift
cloud,
and shall come
into Egypt:
and the idols
of Egypt
shall be moved
at his presence,
and the heart
of Egypt
shall melt
in the midst
of it.

And I will set
the Egyptians
against the Egyptians:
and they shall fight
every one
against his brother,
and every one
against his neighbour;

against city,
and kingdom
against kingdom.

And the spirit
of Egypt
shall fail
in the midst
thereof; and I will destroy
the counsel
thereof: and they shall seek
to the idols,
and to the charmers,
and to them that have familiar spirits,
and to the wizards.

And
the Egyptians
will I give over
into the hand
of a cruel
lord;
and a fierce
king
shall rule
over them, saith
the Lord,
the LORD
of hosts.
And the waters
shall fail
from the sea,
and the river
shall be wasted
and dried up.
And they shall turn
the rivers
far away;
and the brooks
of defence
shall be emptied
and dried up:
the reeds
and flags
shall wither.

The paper reeds
by the brooks,
by the mouth
of the brooks,
and every thing sown
by the brooks,
shall wither,
be driven away,
and be no more.
The fishers
also shall mourn,
and all they that cast
angle
into the brooks
shall lament,
and they that spread
nets
upon
the waters
shall languish.
Moreover they that work
in fine
flax,
and they that weave
networks,
shall be confounded.
And they shall be broken
in the purposes
thereof, all that make
sluices
and ponds
for fish.
Surely the princes
of Zoan
are fools,
the counsel
of the wise
counsellors
of Pharaoh
is become brutish:
how say
ye unto Pharaoh,
I am the son
of the wise,
the son
of ancient
kings?

Where
are they? where
are thy wise
men? and let them tell
thee now, and let them know
what the LORD
of hosts
hath purposed
upon Egypt.
The princes
of Zoan
are become fools,
the princes
of Noph
are deceived;
they have also seduced
Egypt,
even they that are the stay
of the tribes
thereof.
The LORD
hath mingled
a perverse
spirit
in the midst
thereof: and they have caused Egypt
to err
in every work
thereof, as a drunken
man staggereth
in his vomit.

Neither shall there be any work
for Egypt,
which the head
or tail,
branch
or rush,
may do.
In that day
shall Egypt
be like unto women:
and it shall be afraid
and fear
because
of the shaking
of the hand
of the LORD
of hosts,
which he shaketh
over it.
And the land
of Judah
shall be a terror
unto Egypt,
every one that maketh mention
thereof shall be afraid
in himself, because
of the counsel
of the LORD
of hosts,
which he hath determined
against it.
In that day
shall five
cities
in the land
of Egypt
speak
the language
of Canaan,
and swear
to the LORD
of hosts;
one
shall be called,
The city
of destruction.

In that day
shall there be an altar
to the LORD
in the midst
of the land
of Egypt,
and a pillar
at
the border
thereof to the LORD.
And it shall be for a sign
and for a witness
unto the LORD
of hosts
in the land
of Egypt:
for they shall cry
unto the LORD
because
of the oppressors,
and he shall send
them a saviour,
and a great one,
and he shall deliver
them.
And the LORD
shall be known
to Egypt,
and the Egyptians
shall know
the LORD
in that day,
and shall do
sacrifice
and oblation;
yea, they shall vow
a vow
unto the LORD,
and perform
it.
And the LORD
shall smite
Egypt:
he shall smite
and heal
it: and they shall return
even to the LORD,
and he shall be intreated
of them, and shall heal
them.
In that day
shall there be a highway
out of Egypt
to Assyria,
and the Assyrian
shall come
into Egypt,
and the Egyptian
into Assyria,
and the Egyptians
shall serve
with the Assyrians.

In that day
shall Israel
be the third

and with Assyria,
even a blessing
in the midst
of the land:
Whom the LORD
of hosts
shall bless,
saying,
Blessed
be Egypt
my people,
and Assyria
the work
of my hands,
and Israel
mine inheritance.
