1 The word of the Lord came to me:
2 Son of man, prophesy and say: Thus says the Lord God:Wail: “Alas the day!”
3 Yes, a day approaches,a day of the Lord approaches:A day of dark cloud,a time appointed for the nations.
4 A sword will come against Egypt,there will be anguish in Ethiopia,When the slain fall in Egyptwhen its hordes are seized,its foundations razed.
