9. “And I will disturb the hearts of many peoples at my bringing about your captivity among the nations, to countries that you do not know.
10. And I will cause many peoples to be awestruck over you, and their kings will shudder over you in horror, at my brandishing my sword before their faces, and they will tremble continually, each person for his life, on the day of your downfall.”
11. For thus says the Lord Yahweh: “The sword of the king of Babylon, it will come to you.
12. By the swords of warriors I will cause to fall your hordes by the most ruthless of the nations, all of them, and they will devastate the majesty of Egypt, and all of its hordes will be destroyed.
13. And I will destroy all her domestic livestock beside many waters. The feet of humans will not make them turbid again, and the hooves of domestic livestock will not make them turbid.
14. Then I will make their waters settle, and their rivers as the olive oil I will let flow,” declares the Lord Yahweh.
15. “Then I make the land of Egypt a desolation, so that the land will be stripped from its fullness when I strike all of those dwelling in it, and they will know that I am Yahweh.
16. This is a lament, and they will chant it as a lament; the daughters of the nations will chant it as a lament over Egypt, and over all of its hordes they will chant it as a lament,” declares the Lord Yahweh.
