8. I will make all the shining lights in the skybecome dark over you.I will bring darkness over your land,says the Lord God.
9. I will cause many people to be afraidwhen I have another nation destroy you.Nations you have not known will be afraid because of you.
10. I will cause people to be shocked about you.Their kings will tremble with fear because of youwhen I swing my sword before them.They will shake every momenton the day you fall.Each king will be afraid for his own life.
11. “‘So this is what the Lord God says:The sword of the king of Babylonwill come on you.
12. I will cause your people to fallby the swords of mighty soldiers.They are the most terrible of all the nations.They will destroy the pride of Egypt.All Egypt’s people will be destroyed.
13. I will also destroy all Egypt’s cattlewhich live alongside many waters.The foot of man will not stir the waters.And the hooves of cattle will not muddy them anymore.
14. So I will let the Egyptians’ waters become quiet.I will cause their rivers to run as smoothly as olive oil,says the Lord God.
15. I will make the land of Egypt empty.I will take everything that is in the land.I will destroy all those who live in Egypt.Then they will know that I am the Lord.’
