1. The word of the Lord came again unto me, saying,
2. Son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD Howl ye, Woe worth the day!
3. For the day is near, even the day of the Lord is near, a day of clouds; it shall be the time of the heathen.
4. And a sword shall come upon Egypt, and anguish shall be in Ethiopia, when the slain shall fall in Egypt; and they shall take away her multitude, and her foundations shall be broken down.
5. Ethiopia, and Put, and Lud, and all the mingled people, and Cub, and the children of the land that is in league, shall fall with them by the sword.
6. Thus saith the Lord: They also that uphold Egypt shall fall, and the pride of her power shall come down: from the tower of Seveneh shall they fall in it by the sword, saith the Lord GOD
