5 The water will be low in the Nile, and the river will gradually dry up.
6 The channels of the river will stink as they slowly go dry. Reeds and rushes will wither,

8 Everyone who earns a living by fishing in the Nile will groan and cry; their hooks and their nets will be useless.
9 Those who make linen cloth will be in despair;
10 weavers and skilled workers will be broken and depressed.
