5 |The water sources of the Nile will be dried up, and the river will become dry and parched. 6 The canals will stink, and the tributaries of Egypt will dwindle and dry up. Reeds and rushes will wither away. 7 And the bulrushes along the Nile, along the mouth of the Nile, will wither away. All the sown fields of the Nile will become parched, and they will be blown away; there will be nothing left. 8 The fishermen will groan, and all who cast hooks into the Nile will lament; those who spread nets upon the water will become weaker and weaker. 9 The workers in combed flax and the weavers of white linen will be in despair. 10 Egypt's workers in cloth will be crushed, and all who work for wages will be sick at heart.| Isaiah 19:5-10, Intl.
