1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 Son of man prophesy, and say: Thus saith the Lord God: Howl ye, Woe, woe to the day:
3 For the day is near, yea the day of the Lord is near: a cloudy day, it shall be the time of the nations.
4 And the sword shall come upon Egypt: and there shall be dread in Ethiopia, when the wounded shall fall in Egypt, and the multitude thereof shall be taken away, and the foundations thereof shall be destroyed.
