An oracle concerning Egypt: See, the LORD rides on a swift cloud and comes to Egypt. The idols of Egypt tremble before him, and the heart of Egypt melts within it.
I will stir up Egypt against Egypt; they will fight, brother against brother, neighbor against neighbor, city against city, kingdom against kingdom.
Egypt's spirit will drain away within it, and I will swallow up its counsel. They will turn to idols and charmers, to mediums and spiritists.
I will hand Egypt over to a cruel master, and a fierce king will rule over them, declares the Lord, the LORD of hosts.
The waters of the sea will fail, and the river will dry up and be parched.
The canals will stink; the streams of Egypt will dwindle and dry up. Reed and rush will wither away.
The meadows along the Nile, at the very mouth of the Nile, and every sown field beside it will dry up, blow away, and be no more.
The fishermen will groan and mourn, all who cast a hook into the Nile; those who spread nets on the water will waste away.
The workers in combed flax will be dismayed, and the weavers of white cloth.
Her pillars will be crushed, and all who work for wages will be sick at heart.
The officials of Zoan are nothing but fools; Pharaoh's wise counselors give senseless advice. How can you say to Pharaoh, "I am a son of the wise, a son of ancient kings"?
Where, then, are your wise men? Let them tell you and make known what the LORD of hosts has planned against Egypt.
The officials of Zoan have become fools, the officials of Memphis are deceived; the cornerstones of her tribes have led Egypt astray.
The LORD has poured into her a spirit of confusion; they make Egypt stagger in all she does, like a drunkard staggering in his vomit.
There will be nothing Egypt can do—neither head nor tail, neither palm branch nor reed.
On that day the Egyptians will be like women, trembling with fear before the raised hand of the LORD of hosts, which he lifts against them.
And the land of Judah will bring terror to Egypt; everyone who hears its name will be afraid, because of what the LORD of hosts has planned against them.
On that day five cities in the land of Egypt will speak the language of Canaan and swear allegiance to the LORD of hosts. One of them will be called the City of Destruction.
On that day there will be an altar to the LORD in the heart of Egypt, and a pillar to the LORD at her border.
It will be a sign and a witness to the LORD of hosts in the land of Egypt. When they cry out to the LORD because of their oppressors, he will send them a savior and defender, and he will rescue them.
So the LORD will make himself known to Egypt, and on that day the Egyptians will know the LORD. They will worship with sacrifice and offering; they will make vows to the LORD and fulfill them.
The LORD will strike Egypt—striking and healing. They will turn to the LORD, and he will listen to their pleas and heal them.
On that day there will be a highway from Egypt to Assyria. The Assyrians will go to Egypt and the Egyptians to Assyria, and the Egyptians and Assyrians will worship together.
On that day Israel will be the third with Egypt and Assyria, a blessing in the midst of the earth,
whom the LORD of hosts has blessed, saying, "Blessed be Egypt my people, Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel my inheritance."
