12 I will destroy your huge army.
    They will be killed by the swords
    of Babylon’s mighty soldiers.
The soldiers will not show them any pity.
    They will bring Egypt down in all its pride.
    Its huge armies will be thrown down.
13 I will destroy all its cattle
    from the places where they have plenty of water.

    I will make its streams flow like olive oil,”
    announces the Lord and King.
