1 The word of the Lord came to me:
2 “Son of man, prophesy and say: This is what the Lord God says:Wail: Woe for the day!
3 For a day is near;a day belonging to the Lord is near. It will be a day of clouds, a time of doom for the nations.
4 A sword will come against Egypt,and there will be anguish in Cushwhen the slain fall in Egypt,and its wealth is taken away,and its foundations are torn down.
