New American Standard Bible
2 “Son of man, set your face against (A)Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against him and against all (B)Egypt. 3 Speak and say, ‘This is what the Lord [a]God says:
“Behold, I am against you, Pharaoh king of Egypt,
The great [b](C)monster that lies in the midst of his [c]canals,
That (D)has said, ‘My Nile is mine, and I myself have made it.’
4 I will put (E)hooks in your jaws
And make the fish of your [d]canals cling to your scales.
And I will bring you up out of the midst of your [e]canals,
And all the fish of your [f]canals will cling to your scales.
