13 The Lord God proclaims:I will destroy the idolsand bring an end to the images in Memphis.Never again will there be a prince from the land of Egypt;so I will kindle fear in the land of Egypt.
14 I will turn Pathros into a desolation,set fire to Zoan,and execute judgments in Thebes.
15 I will pour out my anger on Pelusium,the stronghold of Egypt,and I will cut down pompous Thebes.
16 I will set Egypt on fire;Pelusium will writhe in travail,Thebes will be split open,Memphis assaulted in broad daylight.
17 The elite troops of On and Pi-besethwill fall by the sword,and the cities themselves will go into captivity.
18 At Tehaphnehes the day will go dark when I break Egypt’s yoke and bring an end to its proud strength. A cloud will cover it, and the towns around it will go into captivity.
19 I will execute judgments in Egypt, and they will know that I am the Lord.
