1. This is a message about Egypt:Look, the Lord is coming on a fast cloudto enter Egypt.The idols of Egypt will tremble before him,and Egypt’s courage will melt away.
2. The Lord says, “I will cause the Egyptians to fight against themselves.People will fight with their relatives;neighbors will fight neighbors;cities will fight cities;kingdoms will fight kingdoms.
3. The Egyptians will be afraid,and I will ruin their plans.They will ask advice from their idols and spirits of the dead,from their mediums and fortune-tellers.”
4. The Lord God All-Powerful says,“I will hand Egypt over to a hard master,and a powerful king will rule over them.”
