Ezekiel 29:3-5
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
3 Speak, and say: Thus saith the Lord God: Behold, I come against thee, Pharao king of Egypt, thou great dragon that liest in the midst of thy rivers, and sayest: The river is mine, and I made myself.
4 But I will put a bridle in thy jaws: and I will cause the fish of thy rivers to stick to thy scales: and I will draw thee out of the midst of thy rivers, and all thy fish shall stick to thy scales.
5 And I will cast thee forth into the desert, and all the fish of thy river: thou shalt fall upon the face of the earth, thou shalt not be taken up, nor gathered together: I have given thee for meat to the beasts of the earth, and to the fowls of the air.

Ezekiel 29:3-5
New International Version
3 Speak to him and say: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘I am against you, Pharaoh(A) king of Egypt,
you great monster(B) lying among your streams.
You say, “The Nile(C) belongs to me;
I made it for myself.”
4 But I will put hooks(D) in your jaws
and make the fish of your streams stick to your scales.
I will pull you out from among your streams,
with all the fish sticking to your scales.(E)
5 I will leave you in the desert,
you and all the fish of your streams.
You will fall on the open field
and not be gathered(F) or picked up.
I will give you as food
to the beasts of the earth and the birds of the sky.(G)
