5 And they shall cut off the water from the sea, and the river shall be wasted and dried up. 6 And they shall divert the waters of the rivers, and shall diminish the great rivers; the reeds and rushes and papyrus shall wither. 7 The rushes by the river, and by the mouth of the river, and everything sown by the river shall wither, be driven away, and be no more. 8 The fishermen also shall lament, and all who cast hooks into the river shall mourn, and those who spread nets upon the water shall languish. 9 Moreover those who work in cotton, and those who comb cotton and weave with joy, shall be confounded. 10 And all those who make strong drink for the drinking of the people shall be humiliated.
