Isaiah 19:8-10

International Standard Version

⁸ The fishermen will groan,
    and all who cast hooks into the Nile will lament;
those who spread nets upon the water
    will become weaker and weaker.
⁹ The workers^[a] in combed flax
    and the weavers of white linen
        will be in despair.
¹⁰ Egypt’s^[b] workers in cloth^[c] will be crushed,
    and all who work for wages will be sick at heart.”
