6. Then all the people of Egypt will know that I am the Lord.”The Lord says, “The Israelites relied on you Egyptians for support, but you were no better than a weak stick.
7. When they leaned on you, you broke, pierced their armpits, and made them wrench their backs.
8. Now then, I, the Sovereign Lord, am telling you that I will get troops to attack you with swords, and they will kill your people and your animals.
9. Egypt will become an empty waste. Then you will know that I am the Lord.“Because you said that the Nile is yours and you made it,
10. I am your enemy and the enemy of your Nile. I will make all of Egypt an empty waste, from the city of Migdol in the north to the city of Aswan in the south, all the way to the Ethiopian border.
