it will be a time of judgment for the nations.
4A sword will come against Egypt
and panic will overtake Ethiopia
when the slain fall in Egypt
and they carry away her wealth
and dismantle her foundations.
5Ethiopia, Put, Lud, all the foreigners, Libya, and the people of the covenant land will die by the sword along with them.
6“‘This is what the
Egypt’s supporters will fall;
her confident pride will crumble.
From Migdol to Syene they will die by the sword within her,

and their cities will be among ruined cities.
8They will know that I am the

by the hand of King Nebuchadrezzar of Babylon.
