2. “Son of man, prophesy and say, ‘Thus said the Master יהוה, “Howl, ‘Woe to the day!’
3. “For the day is near, even the day of יהוה is near. It is a day of clouds, the time of the nations.
4. “The sword shall come upon Mitsrayim, and great anguish shall be in Kush, when the slain fall in Mitsrayim, and they take away her wealth, and her foundations are broken down.
5. “Kush, and Put, and Luḏ, all the mixed people, and Kuḇ, and the sons of the land of the covenant, shall fall with them by the sword.”
6. ‘Thus said יהוה, “Those who lean on Mitsrayim shall fall, and the pride of her power shall come down. From Mig̅dol to Sewĕnĕh those within her shall fall by the sword,” declares the Master יהוה.
