11. For thus says the Lord God: The sword of the king of Babylonshall come upon you.
12. By the swords of the mighty,I will cause your multitude to fall.All of them are tyrants of the nations;they shall destroy the pride of Egypt,and all its multitude shall be destroyed.
13. I also will destroy all the beastsfrom beside many waters;nor shall the foot of man muddy them anymore,nor the hoofs of beasts muddy them.
14. Then I will make their waters settle,and cause their rivers to run like oil,says the Lord God.
15. When I make the land of Egypt desolate,and the country is destitute of that by which it was full,when I smite all those who dwell in it,then shall they know that I am the Lord.
16. This is the lamentation, and they shall chant it. The daughters of the nations shall chant it. They shall chant it over Egypt and over all her multitude, says the Lord God.
