14. At that time, I will allow the waters to run clear, and make its rivers flow like oil. This is what the Lord God says.
15. When I turn the land of Egypt into a wasteland and the land is deprived of all that fills it, and when I strike down those who live there, then they will know that I am the Lord.
16. This is a lament, and it will be sung as a lament. The daughters of the nations will lament for Egypt, and they will also lament for Egypt’s hordes. This is what the Lord God says.
17. In the twelfth year, on the fifteenth day of the first month, the Lord’s word came to me:
18. Human one, mourn for Egypt’s hordes.Send Egypt downwith the mighty nations subject to it,to the world below,among those who go down to the pit.
19. Whom do you surpass in beauty?Go down and take your bed with the uncircumcised,
20. among those who fall slain by the sword.A sword is appointed, and all his hordes will carry him off.
