1 Behold, the Lord sitteth upon a swift cloud, and shall come to Egypt, and the works of ’s hands shall be shaken from before him, and their hearts shall be discomfited within them.

2 And Egyptians shall rise up against Egyptians, and shall war each against his brother and each against his neighbour, and city shall rise up against city, and province against province.

3 And the spirit of the Egyptians shall be confounded within them, and I will scatter their counsel, and they shall inquire of their gods and their images, and of them that speak from the earth, and of the ventriloquists, and the diviners.

4 And I will give Egypt over into the hands of men, harsh lords; and harsh kings shall lord it over them. Thus saith the Lord of Hosts.

5 And the Egyptians shall drink the water that is. beside the sea, and the river shall fail, and be dried up.

6 And the rivers and the trenches of the river shall fail, and every gathering together of water shall be dried up, and (the water) in every marsh of reed and rush,

7 And the green meadow-grass, all that is round about the river, and all that which is sown about the river, shall be dried up, blasted by the wind.
