11 He along with his people,ruthless men from the nations,will be brought in to destroy the land.They will draw their swords against Egyptand fill the land with the slain.
12 I will make the streams dryand sell the land into the hands of evil men. I will bring desolationon the land and everything in itby the hands of foreigners.I, Yahweh, have spoken.
13 This is what the Lord God says:I will destroy the idols and put an endto the false gods in Memphis. There will no longer bea prince from the land of Egypt.So I will instill fear in that land.
14 I will make Pathros desolate,set fire to Zoan,and execute judgments on Thebes.
15 I will pour out My wrath on Pelusium,the stronghold of Egypt,and will wipe out the crowds of Thebes.
16 I will set fire to Egypt;Pelusium will writhe in anguish,Thebes will be breached,and Memphis will face foes in broad daylight.
17 The young men of On and Pi-besethwill fall by the sword,and those cities will go into captivity.
