Ezekiel 29:11-13

Modern English Version

¹¹ No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of beast pass through it, nor shall it be inhabited for forty years. ¹² Thus I will make the land of Egypt desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities among the cities that are laid waste shall be desolate for forty years. And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations and will disperse them among the countries.

¹³ For thus says the Lord God: At the end of forty years I will gather the Egyptians from the peoples wherever they were scattered.
