8. ‘ “Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I will bring a sword against you and kill both man and beast.
9. Egypt will become a desolate wasteland. Then they will know that I am the Lord.‘ “Because you said, ‘The Nile is mine; I made it,’
10. therefore I am against you and against your streams, and I will make the land of Egypt a ruin and a desolate waste from Migdol to Aswan, as far as the border of Cush.
11. The foot of neither man nor beast will pass through it; no one will live there for forty years.
