Isaiah 19:5-10 ▼

5 The waters from the sea will dry up, And the river will be parched and dry.

6 The rivers will emit a stench, The streams of Egypt will thin out and dry up; The reeds and rushes will rot away.

7 The bulrushes by the Nile, by the edge of the Nile And all the sown fields by the Nile Will become dry, be driven away, and be no more.

8 And the fishermen will lament, And all those who cast a line into the Nile will mourn, And those who spread nets on the waters will languish.

9 Moreover, the manufacturers of linen made from combed flax And the weavers of white cloth will be ashamed.

10 And the pillars of Egypt will be crushed; All the hired laborers will be grieved in soul.
