4 And I will deliver Egypt into the hand of cruel masters, and a strong king will dominate them, says the Lord, the God of hosts.
5 And the waters of the sea will dry up, and the river will be desolate and dry.
6 And the rivers will fail. The streams of its banks will diminish and dry up. The reed and the bulrush will wither away.
7 The channel of the river will be stripped down to its source, and everything irrigated by it will dry up and wither and be no more.
8 And the fishermen will grieve. And all who cast a hook into the river will mourn. And those who cast a net upon the surface of its waters will languish.
9 Those who work with linen, combing and weaving fine textiles, will be confounded.
10 And its irrigated places will begin to fail, with all those who make pools to take fish.
